Today’s cars are smaller, safer, cleaner, and more economical than their predecessors, but the car of the future will be far more pollution-free than those on the road today. Several new types of automobile engines have already been developed than run on alternative sources of power, such as electricity, compressed natural gas, methanol, steam, hydrogen, and propane. Electricity, however, is the only zero-emission option presently available.
Although electric vehicles will not be truly practical until a powerful, compact battery or other dependable source of current is available, transport experts foresee a new assortment of electric vehicles entering everyday life: shorter-range commuter electric cars, three-wheeled neighborhood cars, electric delivery vans, bikes and trolleys.
As automakers work to develop practical electrical vehicles, urban planners and utility engineers are focusing on infrastructure systems to support and make the best use of the new cars. Public charging facilities will need to be as common as today’s gas stations. Public parking spots on the street or in commercial lots will need to be equipped with devices that allow drivers to charge their batteries while they stop, dine, or attend a concert. To encourage the use of electric vehicles, the most convenient parking in transportation centers might be reserved for electric cars.
Planners foresee electric shuttle buses, trains, buses and neighborhood vehicles all meeting at transit centers that would have facilities for charging and renting. Commuters will be able to rent a variety of electric cars to suit their needs: light trucks, one-person three-wheelers, small cars, or electric/gasoline hybrid cars for longer trips, which will no doubt take place on automated freeways capable of handling five times the number of vehicles that can be carried by freeway today.
Câu 41: The following electrical vehicles are all mentioned in the passage EXCEPT___.
	A. vans	B. trains	C. planes	D. trolleys

A pilot cannot fly by sight alone. In many conditions, such as flying at night and landing in dense fog, a pilot must use radar, an alternative way of navigating. Since human eyes are not very good at determining speeds of approaching objects, radar can show a pilot how fast nearby planes are moving. The basic principle of radar is exemplified by what happens when one shouts in a cave. The echo of the sounds against the walls helps a person determine the size of the cave. With radar, however, the waves are radio waves instead of sound waves. Radio waves travel at the speed of light, about 300,000 kilometers in one second. A radar set sends out a short burst of radio waves. Then it receives the echoes produced when the waves bounce off objects. By determining the time it takes for the echoes to return to the radar set, a trained technician can determine the distance between the radar set and other objects. The word “radar”, in fact, gets its name from the term “radio detection and ranging”. “Ranging” is the term for detection of the distance between an object and the radar set. Besides being of critical importance to pilots, radar is essential for air traffic control, tracking ships at sea, and for tracking weather systems and storms. 
Câu 51: What is the main topic of this passage? 
	A. The nature of radar. B. History of radar. 	C. Alternatives to radar. 	D. Types of ranging. 
Câu 52: According to the passage, what can radar detect besides location of objects? 
	A. Shape. 	B. Size. 	C. Speed. 	D. Weight. 
Câu 53: The word “exemplified” in the passage can be replaced by _______. 
	A. “specified” 	B. “resembled” 	C. “illustrated” 	D. “justified” 
Câu 54: The word “shouts” in the passage most closely means _______. 
	A. “exclaims” 	B. “yells” 	C. “shoots” 	D. “whispers” 
Câu 55: Which of the following words best describes the tone of this passage? 
	A. argumentative 	B. explanatory 	C. humorous 	D. imaginative 
Câu 56: According to the passage, the distance between a radar set and an object can be determined by _______. 
	A. the time it takes for a burst of radio waves to produce echoes when the waves bounce off the object 
	B. the term “ranging” used for detection of the distance between an object and the radar set 
	C. the time it takes for the radio waves to produce echoes and bounce off the object 
	D. the time it takes for the echoes produced by the radio waves to return to the radar set 
Câu 57: Which type of waves does radar use? 
	A. tidal 	B. sound 	C. heat 	D. radio 
Câu 58: The word “tracking” in the passage most closely means _______. 
	A. sending 	B. searching for 	C. ranging 	D. repairing

	A. A history of flying. 	B. Other uses of radar. 
	C. The technology used by pilots. 	D. Uses of some technology.

II. TOPIC: Write an essay to discuss the benefits of doing exercise.
Health is considered to be the most valuable thing one possesses. Improving health is always a prior task in one’s daily routine. And the simplest, cheapest, but the most effective way to better one’s health is doing regular exercise.
One advantage of doing exercise is to reduce stress. People who exercise are likely to feel more relaxed, healthier, and of course happier. Doing regular exercise helps the body produce happy chemicals that make the exercisers reduce the worries about life and work as well as forget the boredom and unhappiness.
Another benefit exercising brings us is that we will feel more energetic to face and overcome our daily difficulties. Doing exercise helps us reduce the possibilities of being ill, protects us from some fatal diseases as heart disease, cancers and diabetes. Regular exercisers are believed to have healthier, happier and longer lives. The other good thing is that doing exercise helps us feel more self-confident. We know exactly what we can do or what abilities, talents we have. We will think positively, do confidently, and lead an optimistic life if we practice exercising regularly. Controlling our weight effectively is another value. Perspiration occurs when we exercise, which helps our bodies get rid of bad things inside. Fats are burnt during our practicing exercise, which helps us to keep fit. 
To sum up, doing exercise enables people to have good body-buildings, keep fit and brings exercisers many benefits. Sparing time doing exercise will ensure us a longer, healthier and happier life.
