    c k o n vn sau v ch n ph ng n ng (A ho c B, C, D) cho m i cu t 26 n 35. The Sun today is a yellow dwarf star. It is fueled by thermonuclear reactions near its center that convert

    hydrogen to helium. The Sun has existed in its present state for about four billion six hundred million years and isthousands of times larger than the Earth.

    By studying other stars, astronomers can predict what the rest of the Suns life will be like. About fivebillion years from now, the core of the Sun will shrink and become hotter. The surface temperature will fall. Thehigher temperature of the center will increase the rate of thermonuclear reactions. The outer regions of the Sun

    will expand approximately 35 million miles, about the distance to Mercury, which is the closest planet to theSun. The Sun will then be a red giant star. Temperatures on the Earth will become too high for life to exist.

    Once the Sun has used up its thermonuclear energy as a red giant, it will begin to shrink. After itshrinks to the size of the Earth, it will become a white dwarf star. The Sun may throw off huge amounts ofgases in violent eruptions called nova explosions as it changes from a red giant to a white dwarf.

    After billions of years as a white dwarf, the Sun will have used up all its fuel and will have lost its heat.Such a star is called a black dwarf. After the Sun has become a black dwarf, the Earth will be dark and cold. If anyatmosphere remains there, it will have frozen over the Earths surface.

    Cu 26: It can be inferred from the passage that the Sun ______.A. is approximately halfway through its life as a yellow dwarfB. will continue to be a yellow dwarf for another 10 billion years

    C. has been in existence for 10 billion yearsD. is rapidly changing in size and brightness

    Cu 27: What will probably be the first stage of change for the Sun to become a red giant?

    A. It will throw off huge amounts of gases. B. Its central part will grow smaller and hotter.C. Its surface will become hotter and shrink. D. Its core will cool off and use less fuel.

    Cu 28: When the Sun becomes a red giant, what will the atmosphere be like on the Earth?A. It will be enveloped in the expanding surface of the sun.B. It will freeze and become solid.

    C. It will become too hot for life to exist.D. It will be almost destroyed by nova explosions.

    Cu 29: When the Sun has used up its energy as a red giant, it will ______.A. cease to exist B. stop to expand C. get frozen D. become smaller

    Cu 30: Large amounts of gases may be released from the Sun at the end of its life as a ______.A. red giant B. white dwarf C. yellow dwarf D. black dwarf

    Cu 31: As a white dwarf, the Sun will be ______.A. thousands of times smaller than it is today B. the same size as the planet MercuryC. around 35 million miles in diameter D. a cool and habitable planet

    Cu 32: The Sun will become a black dwarf when ______.A. the Sun moves nearer to the Earth B. the outer regions of the Sun expandC. it has used up all its fuel as a white dwarf D. the core of the Sun becomes hotter

    Cu 33: The word there in the last sentence of paragraph 4 refers to ______.A. the planet MercuryC. the core of a black dwarf

    c k o n vn sau v ch n ph ng n ng (A ho c B, C, D) cho m i cu t 36 n 45. Reading to oneself is a modern activity which was almost unknown to the scholars of the classical and

    medieval worlds, while during the fifteenth century the term reading undoubtedly meant reading aloud. Onlyduring the nineteenth century did silent reading become commonplace.

    One should be wary, however, of assuming that silent reading came about simply because reading aloudwas a distraction to others. Examinations of factors related to the historical development of silent reading haverevealed that it became the usual mode of reading for most adults mainly because the tasks themselveschanged in character.

    The last century saw a steady gradual increase in literacy and thus in the number of readers. As thenumber of readers increased, the number of potential listeners declined and thus there was some reduction in theneed to read aloud. As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common, so came the flourishing of readingas a private activity in such public places as libraries, railway carriages and offices, where reading aloud

    would cause distraction to other readers.Towards the end of the century, there was still considerable argument over whether books should be

    used for information or treated respectfully and over whether the reading of materials such as newspapers was insome way mentally weakening. Indeed, this argument remains with us still in education. However, whatever itsvirtues, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was replaced by the printed mass media on the one handand by books and periodicals for a specialised readership on the other.

    By the end of the twentieth century, students were being recommended to adopt attitudes to books and touse reading skills which were inappropriate, if not impossible, for the oral reader. The social, cultural andtechnological changes in the century had greatly altered what the term reading implied.

    Cu 36: Reading aloud was more common in the medieval world because ______.A. people relied on reading for entertainmentB. there were few places available for private reading

    C. few people could read to themselvesD. silent reading had not been discovered

    Cu 37: The word commonplace in the first paragraph mostly means ______.A. attracting attention B. most preferable C. widely used D. for everybodys use

    Cu 38: The development of silent reading during the last century indicated ______.A. a change in the nature of reading B. an increase in the average age of readersC. an increase in the number of books D. a change in the status of literate people

    Cu 39: Silent reading, especially in public places, flourished mainly because of ______.

    A. the development of libraries B. the increase in literacyC. the decreasing need to read aloud D. the decreasing number of listeners

    Cu 40: It can be inferred that the emergence of the mass media and specialised reading materials was anindication of ______.

    A. an alteration in educationalists attitudes B. a decline of standards of literacyC. a change in the readers interest D. an improvement of printing techniques

    Cu 41: The phrase a specialised readership in paragraph 4 mostly means ______.A. a requirement for readers in a particular area of knowledgeB. a limited number of readers in a particular area of knowledge

    C. a status for readers specialised in mass mediaD. a reading volume for particular professionals

    Cu 42: The phrase oral reader in the last paragraph mostly means a person who ______.A. practises reading to an audience B. is interested in spoken languageC. is good at public speaking D. takes part in an audition

    Cu 43: All of the following might be the factors that affected the continuation of the old shared literacy cultureEXCEPT ______.

    A. the diversity of reading materials B. the specialised readershipC. the inappropriate reading skills D. the printed mass media

    Cu 44: Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A. Reading aloud was more common in the past than it is today.B. The decline of reading aloud was wholly due to its distracting effect.

    C. Not all printed mass media was appropriate for reading aloud.D. The change in reading habits was partly due to the social, cultural and technological changes.

    Cu 45: The writer of this passage is attempting to ______.A. explain how reading habits have developed B. show how reading methods have improvedC. change peoples attitudes to reading D. encourage the growth of reading

As thenumber of readers increased, the number of potential listeners declined and thus there was some reduction in theneed to read aloud. As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common, so came the flourishing of readingas a private activity in such public places as libraries, railway carriages and offices, where reading aloud

    would cause distraction to other readers.Towards the end of the century, there was still considerable argument over whether books should be

    used for information or treated respectfully and over whether the reading of materials such as newspapers was insome way mentally weakening. Indeed, this argument remains with us still in education. However, whatever itsvirtues, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was replaced by the printed mass media on the one handand by books and periodicals for a specialised readership on the other.

    By the end of the twentieth century, students were being recommended to adopt attitudes to books and touse reading skills which were inappropriate, if not impossible, for the oral reader. The social, cultural andtechnological changes in the century had greatly altered what the term reading implied.
