Wild animals (and wild plants) and the wild places where they live are seriously threatened
almost everywhere. One species has become extinct in each year of this century. But many hundreds

are being cut down to satisfy man’s needs of timber and paper.

Read the passage carefully and then choose the correct answers.
Man is a land animal, but he also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served
the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and convenient way to travel to many parts of
the world. Today, nearly two thirds of the world’s population lives within 80 kilometers of the sea coast.
In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive.
Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hoped to supply many
man’s needs. The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology is impressive. Oil
and gas explorations have been carried out for nearly 30 years. Valuable amounts of minerals exist on
the ocean floor are ready to be mined.
Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish
and shellfish is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by Oriental people.
Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm
temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and
waves offer possible use as a source of energy.
Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The development of
strong, new materials has made this possible. The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve.

Unit 15
Experts believe that by the year 2000 the problems that prevent us from exploiting fully the food,
minerals, and energy source of the sea will be largely solved.

A. the sea resources have largely been used up
B. the sea, in a broad sense, has not yet been developed
C. the problems that prevent us from fully exploiting the sea have already been solved

Football is one of the world’s most popular sports. People have played the game for hundreds of
years and almost every country has a national football team. A football match consists of two teams
with eleven players on each side. Each team is on one half of the pitch at the start of the game. When a
referee blows his whistle, the game begins.

VIII. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
There is very little documentation about the origins of water polo. It is known, however, that the
sport originated in the rivers and lakes of mid-19th century England as an aquatic version of rugby.
Early games used an inflated rubber ball that came from India known as a "pulu" (the single Indian word
for all "balls"). Pronounced "polo" by the English, both the game and the ball became known as "water
polo." To attract more spectators to swimming exhibitions, the London Swimming Association designed
aset of water polo rules for indoor swimming pools in 1870. At first, players scored by planting the ball
on the end of the pool with both hands. A favorite trick of the players was to place the five-to-nine inch
rubber ball inside their swimming suit and dive under the murky water, they would then appear again as
close to the goal as possible. The introduction of the rules by Scottish players changed the nature of
water polo. It became a game that emphasized swimming, speed and passing. Scottish rules moved
from a rugby variant to a soccer style of play. Goals became a cage of 10x 3 feet and a goal could be
scored by being thrown. Players could only be tackled when they "held" the ball and the ball could no
longer be taken under water. The small rubber ball was replaced by a leather soccer ball. If the player
came up too near the goal, he was promptly jumped on by the goalie, who was permitted to stand on
the pool deck. Games were often nothing more than gang fights in the water as players ignored the ball,
preferring underwater wrestling matches that usually ended with one man floating to the surface
unconscious. Water polo was first played in the USA in 1888. The game featured the old rugby style of
play which resembled American football in the water. "American style" water polo became very popular
and by the late 1890's was played in such venues as Madison Square Garden and Boston's Mechanics
Hall, attracting 14,000 spectators to national championship games.

useful development for all of those countries.
ASEAN was formed as a result of the Bangkok Declaration of 1967 and initially had five
members: Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, (49) Philippines and Singapore. Brunei subsequently
joined in 1984 after it had won independence from Britain. Vietnam became the seventh member of the
group, officially joining in 1995. After several years of negotiation, Myanmar and Laos joined in 1997
and the final member of the ten, Cambodia, joined in 1999. The only (50) state in Southeast

It has been thought that women are the second class in citizen, and men are the first. There is not
a real equality of opportunity for men and women. Years ago, people were living in a man-dominated
society. Women had to obey their husbands and fathers absolutely. Women's place was in the kitchen
and women's work was housework. In many places, women were not even' allowed to go to school.
Women had no rights, even the right to choose husband for themselves. Men usually occupied high
positions in society so they thought they were more intelligent than women. Men often considered
women as their property. Sometimes, they were mistreated by their husbands and suffered the problem
as a fate. Many parents did not even want to daughters.
Despite the progress, there remain outdated beliefs about women's roles, traditionally passed
down from generation to generation. Men are commonly seen as the strong bodies, bread-winners in
the family and key leaders in society, while women are restricted to being housewives and child bearing
and care, and housework such as washing and cooking.
According to social surveys, many women in the 21st century still have to work over 12 hours a day
including working in offices and doing countless household chores without any help from their
husbands. In some regions, the labor of women is not recognized despite the hardships they endure to
support the whole family. Moreover, women are the direct victims of family violence, especially in rural
areas.
Thanks to the women's liberation movement, nowadays women have proved that they are equal to
men in every aspect. An average woman has weaker muscles than an average man but she may be as
intelligent as he is. Women can do everything that men can, and women can do one thing that no man
can: they produce children.
41. Which is not women's role in the former days?

A. do not have to do housework any more

medicine, to name a few, have brought about (12) awareness of the role of women in any
walks of life. These women have helped redefine and consolidate the nature of women's place in

women in society has been some benefit to the (14) woman. It is true to say that not all women

Today, more and more women are actively participating in social activities both in urban and rural
areas. Specifically, they have shined brightly in even many fields commonly regarded as the man's
areas such as business, scientific research and social management. In some areas, women even show
more overwhelming power than men. The image of contemporary Vietnamese women with
creativeness, dynamism, success has become popular in Vietnam's society. The fact reveals that the
gender gap has been remarkably narrowed and women enjoy many more opportunities to pursue their
social careers and obtain success, contributing to national socio-economic development. According to
Ms, Le Thi Quy, Director of the Gender/and Development Research Centre under the University of
Social Sciences and Humanities, Hanoi National University, gender equity in Vietnam has reached a
high level over the past decade. The rate of Vietnamese women becoming National Assembly members
from the 9th term to the 11th term increased 8.7%, bringing the proportion of Vietnamese women in
authority to 27.3%, the highest rate in Southeast Asia. There is no big gap in the level of literacy and
schooling between men and women. Women account for about 37% of university and college
graduates, 19.9% of doctoral degree holders and 6.7% of professors and associate professors.
The legitimate rights of women and children are ensured more than ever before with more
complete legal documents including laws, conventions and national action plans, among which the laws
on "gender equity" mark a turning-point in the empowerment of women.
Mass media also highlights the continued success of women in every field and honors their great
importance in modern society, helping to do away with outdated perceptions about traditional women's
duties. Many projects on reproductive health care, children protection, and family income improvement
jointly conducted by various mass organizations, state agencies and non-governmental organizations
have created favorable conditions for women to become involved.
