PART C. READING
I. Read the following passage and write the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions.
My village was never a big village, nor was it particularly successful or well-known. It was a place where simple people worked on their land, tending citrus groves and running poultry farms. The most exotic plantation grew avocados, and a palm tree nursery was something of an attraction.
The village was established by a group of Greek immigrants in 1937 in what was then known as British-controlled Palestine. When we first moved here, one could still hear some Greek in the street, the local store sold original Greek delicacies and from time to time we were invited to sit on a neighbor’s porch and share some ouzo at the end of a working day.
In the last few years, my village has changed dramatically. Very few people work in agriculture now; they can no longer support their families growing oranges and chicken. As a result, they must find their income outside the village and rent out their land or sell their little family farms altogether. Some of the land is still used for agriculture, but no longer for the family farms. Now it is the agriculture of luxuries.

Câu 4. What can best describe the change of the village recently?

 	C. The change is normal. 	D. There is not much change.
Câu 5. How do the villagers earn their living now?
 	A. They grow oranges and chicken.	B. They run family farms.
