influence of anthropologists and sociologists, the word culture has come to be used generally both in the singular and the plural (cultures) to refer to a whole way of life of people, including their customs, laws, conventions, and values

alternative focus emerged, although with computers has come electronic culture, affecting kinds of study, and most recently digital culture As cultures express themselves in new forms not everything gets better or more civilized

The multiplicity of meanings attached to the word made and will make it difficult to define There is no single, unproblematic definition, although many attempts have been made to establish one The only non-problematic definitions go back to agricultural meaning (for example, cereal culture or strawberry culture) and medical meaning (for example, bacterial culture or penicillin culture) Since in anthropology and sociology we also acknowledge culture clashes, culture shock, and counter-culture, the range of reference is extremely wide

X Read the following passage adapted from Cultural Guide - OALD, and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 71 to 80

The issue of equality for women in British society first attracted national attention in the early 20th century, when the suffragettes won for women the right to vote In the 1960s feminism became the subject of intense debate when the women’s liberation movement encouraged women to reject their traditional supporting role and to demand equal status and equal rights with men in areas such as employment and pay

In the US the movement that is often called the “first wave of feminism” began in the mid 1800s Susan B

Anthony worked for the right to vote, Margaret Sanger wanted to provide women with the means of contraception so that they could decide whether or not to have children, and Elizabeth Blackwell, who had to fight for the chance to become a doctor, wanted women to have greater opportunities to study Many feminists were interested in other social issues

The second wave of feminism began in the 1960s Women like Betty Friedan and Gloria Steinem became associated with the fight to get equal rights and opportunities for women under the law An important issue was the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), which was intended to change the Constitution Although the ERA was not passed, there was progress in other areas It became illegal for employers, schools, clubs, etc to discriminate against women But women still find it hard to advance beyond a certain point in their careers, the so-called glass ceiling that prevents them from having high-level jobs Many women also face the problem of the second shift, i.e the household chores

In the 1980s, feminism became less popular in the US and there was less interest in solving the remaining problems, such as the fact that most women still earn much less than men Although there is still discrimination, the principle that it should not exist is widely accepted

Question 71: It can be inferred from paragraph that in the 19th century, A British women did not have the right to vote in political elections

B most women did not wish to have equal status and equal rights C suffragettes fought for the equal employment and equal pay D British women did not complete their traditional supporting role

Dòng 1+2: “The issue of equality for women in British society first attracted national attention in the early 20th century, when the suffragettes won for women the right to vote” => đến đầu kỉ 20 phụ nữ có quyền bỏ phiếu => có nghĩa kỉ 19 họ chưa có quyền bầu cử => chọn A

Question 72: The phrase “gender gap” in paragraph refers to A the social relationship between the two sexes

Question 73: Susan B Anthony, Margaret Sanger, and Elizabeth Blackwell are mentioned as A American women who were more successful than men

B American women who had greater opportunities C pioneers in the fight for American women’s rights

D American women with exceptional abilities Đoạn 3: Susan – đấu tranh cho quyền bầu cử

Margaret – phổ biến phương pháp tránh thai để phụ nữ tự định có Elizabeth – muốn phụ nữ có nhiều hội để học tập

=> Cả người họ nhà tiên phong đấu tranh cho quyền phụ nữ Question 74: The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA)

A supported employers, schools and clubs B changed the US Constitution

C was brought into force in the 1960s D was not officially approved

Dòng đoạn 4: “Although the ERA was not passed…” (mặc dù ERA không thông qua…)

Question 75: In the late 20th century, some information about feminism in Britain was issued by A the Equal Rights Amendment

B the Equal Pay Act of 1970

C the Equal Opportunities Commission D the Sex Discrimination Act

Feminism (n) : thuyết nam nữ bình quyền

Question 76: Which of the following is true according to the passage?

C The women’s liberation movement in the world first began in Britain D The movement of feminism began in the US earlier than in Britain A sai: most popular -> less popular (đoạn 5)

B sai: early 20th century -> late 20th century (đoạn 2)

C sai: phong trào giải phóng phụ nữ bắt đầu Anh vào đầu kỉ 20 (đoạn 1) Mĩ vào kỉ 19 (đoạn 3)

=>D

Question 77: The phrase “glass ceiling” in paragraph mostly means A a ceiling made of glass

B an imaginary barrier C a transparent frame D an overlooked problem

Sau cụm từ “glass ceiling” có mệnh đề quan hệ bổ nghĩa “that prevents them from having high-level jobs.” => có thề đoán nghĩa cụm từ “an imaginary barrier”

- Glass ceiling: trở ngại ngầm thăng tiến cá nhân - Imaginary (adj) : tưởng tượng

Chúng ta dùng “glass ceiling” nói trở ngại cản trở người phụ nữ có cơng việc tốt khơng có điều luật thức ngăn cấm họ đảm nhận cơng việc

Question 78: Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A An American woman once had to fight for the chance to become a doctor B British women now have much better employment opportunities

C There is now no sex discrimination in Britain and in the US

D Many American women still face the problem of household chores Đáp án A tìm thấy ở: đoạn nói Elizabeth Blackwell

Đáp án B tìm thấy ở: câu cuối đoạn “Women now have much better employment opportunities,…”

Đáp án D tìm thấy ở: câu cuối đoạn “Many women also face the problem of the second shift, i.e the household chores.”

A women in Britain and the US still fight for their equal status and equal rights B the belief that sex discrimination should not exist is not popular in the US C women not have better employment opportunities despite their great efforts D the British government did not approve of the women’s liberation movement

Câu cuối đoạn cuối “Although there is still discrimination…” qua nội dung đọc rút phân biệt tồn người phụ nữ phải tiếp tục đấu tranh

Question 80: Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A The Suffragettes in British Society

B Opportunities for Women Nowadays C Women and the Right to Vote D Feminism in Britain and the US
