Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 13 to 20.
Certainly no creature in the sea is odder than the common sea cucumber. All living creatures, especially human beings, have their peculiarities, but everything about the little sea cucumber seems unusual. What else can be said about a bizarre animal that, among other eccentricities, eats mud, feeds almost continuously day and night but can live without eating for long periods, and can be poisonous but is considered supremely edible by gourmets?
For some fifty million years, despite all its eccentricities, the sea cucumber has subsisted on its diet of mud. It is adaptable enough to live attached to rocks by its tube feet, under rocks in shallow water, or on the surface of mud flats. Common in cool water on both Atlantic and Pacific shores, it has the ability to such up mud or sand and digest whatever nutrients are present.
Sea cucumbers come in a variety of colors, ranging from black to reddish-brown to sand-color and nearly white. One form even has vivid purple tentacle. Usually the creatures are cucumber-shaped-hence their name and because they are typically rock inhabitants, this shape, combine with flexibility, enables them to squeeze into crevices where they are safe from predators and ocean currents.
Although they have voracious appetites, eating day and night, sea cucumbers have the capacity to become quiescent and live at a low metabolic rate-feeding sparingly or not at all for long periods, so that the marine organisms that provide their food have a chance to multiply. If it were not for this faculty, they would devour all the food available in a short time and would probably starve themselves out of existence.
But the most spectacular thing about the sea cucumber is the way it defends itself. Its major enemies are fish and crabs, when attacked, it squirts all its internal organs into the water. It also casts off attached structures such as tentacles. The sea cucumber will eviscerate and regenerate itself if it is attached or even touched; it will do the same if the surrounding water temperature is too high or if the water becomes too polluted.
Câu 13: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The reason for the sea cucumber's name	B. What makes the sea cucumber unusual
C. How to identify the sea cucumber	D. Places where the sea cucumber can be found
Câu 14: In paragraph 1, the word "bizarre" is closest in meaning to ______.
A. odd	B. rare	C. marine	D. simple
Câu 15: According to the passage, why is the shape of sea cucumbers important?
A. It makes it easier for them to move through the mud.
B. It helps them to protect themselves from danger.
C. It makes them attractive to fish.
D. It helps them to digest their food.
Câu 16: Which of the following is an example of behavior comparable with the sea cucumber living at a low metabolic rate?
A. A bear hibernating in the wintering	B. An octopus defending itself with its tentacles
C. A pig eating constantly	D. A parasite living on its host's blood
Câu 17: The word "this faculty" in paragraph 4 refers to the sea cucumber's ability to ______.

Cyborgs: How Man Becomes Machine
It’s only natural that people want to use the latest innovations to better themselves. Smart devices can truly do incredible things and help to simplify our day. They can also enhance our perceptions, arm us with knowledge, and open up a world of new possibilities. A few people have even decided to make the leap and transform themselves to become cyborgs.
Cyborg is a term used to describe a being that half human and half machine. This may sound like something out of science-fiction novels, but some people have already adapted this lifestyle. One is artist Neil Harbisson. He was born completely colour-blind, and could only see black and white images. It seemed that he would never experience colour. After attending a cybernetics talk in college, he met an inventor who agreed to make a special device for him. They designed an eyeborg, a mechanical eye that converted colours into sound frequencies. This enabled Harbisson to hear colour and perceive the world in different ways. He started going to museums to “hear” classic paintings. In fact, a simple walk down a grocery store filled with colourful products produces some catchy tunes. Harbisson loves his eyeborg so much that he rarely takes it off. He now gives talks urging others to consider adding their own mechanical improvements.
In 1998, British scientist Kevin Warwick conducted his own experiment. He implanted a chip inside of his arm, which he used to control lights and other appliances at home. He later expanded the project by placing electrodes inside his nervous system and linking it to the Internet. This allowed him to control external objects including robotic arms, amplifiers, and loudspeakers. His work remains influential as this example of extended sensory input was the first of its kind.
If you’re interested in becoming a cyborg and you’re willing, a good place to start might be with a pair of Google Glass. Users wear it like ordinary eyeglasses, yet Google Glass is equipped with state-of-the-art electronics. Using voice commands you can have it take a picture of what you see, see directions right in front of you, or translate your voice into other languages. Hopefully, this experience will help you decide whether becoming a cyborg is right for you, or if you’re content to remain a human like the rest of us.

A. A human who refuses to use technology.
B. A computer that’s able to talk.
C. A machine that behaves exactly like a human being.
D. A person who uses technology to extend their senses.
Câu 46: What did Harbisson’s eyeborg do?
A. It made his sense of touch a little bit better.	B. It allowed him to see colours very clearly.
C. It gave him a way to hear colour as sound.	D. It improved his vision so he could see for miles.
Câu 47: Why does the author suggest that people should use Google Glass?
A. It has every single cyborg feature that a device could offer.
B. It gives them a chance to test out basic cyborg technology.
