correct answer to each of the questions from 39 to 45. 
Probably the most famous film commenting on the twentieth-century technology is Modern Times, made in 1936. Charlie Chaplin was motivated to make the film by a reporter who, while interviewing him, happened to describe the working conditions in industrial Detroit. Chaplin was told that healthy young farm boys were lured to the city to work on automotive assembly lines. Within four or five years, these young men’s health was destroyed by the stress of work in the factories. The film opens with a shot of a mass of sheep making their way down a crowded ramp. Abruptly, the film shifts to a scene of factory workers jostling one another on their way to a factory. However, the rather bitter note of criticism in the implied comparison is not sustained. It is replaced by a gentle note of satire. Chaplin prefers to entertain rather than lecture. Scenes of factory interiors account for only about one-third of Modern Times, but they contain some of the most pointed social commentary as well as the most comic situations. No one who has seen the film can ever forget Chaplin vainly trying to keep pace with the fast-moving conveyor belt, almost losing his mind in the process. Another popular scene involves an automatic feeding machine brought to the assembly line so that workers need not interrupt their labor to eat. The feeding machine malfunctions, hurling food at Chaplin, who is strapped in his position on the assembly line and cannot escape. This serves to illustrate people’s utter helplessness in the face of machines that are meant to serve their basic needs. Clearly, Modern Times has its faults, but it remains the best film treating technology within a social context. It does not offer a radical social message, but it does accurately reflect the sentiment of many who feel they are victims of an over-mechanized world.

A. a movie 	B. a conversation 	C. a newspaper 	D. fieldwork

A. to reveal the situation of the factory workers 	B. to introduce the main characters of the film
C. to produce a tacit association 	D. to give the setting for the entire plot later

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 46 to 50. 
With its radiant color and plantlike shape, the sea anemone looks more like a flower than an animal. More specifically, the sea anemone is formed quite like the flower for which it is named, with a body like a stem and tentacles like petals in brilliant shades of blue, green, pink, and red. Its diameter varies from about six millimeters in some species to more than ninety centimeters in the giant varieties of Australia. Like corals, hydras, and jellyfish, sea anemones are coelenterates. They can move slowly, but more often they attach the lower part of their cylindrical bodies to rocks, shells, or wharf pilings. The upper end of the sea anemone has a mouth surrounded by tentacles that the animal uses to capture its food. Stinging cells in the tentacles throw out tiny poison threads that paralyze other small sea animals. The tentacles then drag this prey into the sea anemone's mouth. The food is digested in the large inner body cavity. When disturbed a sea anemone retracts its tentacles and shortens its body so that it resembles a lump on a rock. Anemones may reproduce by forming eggs, dividing in half or developing buds that grow and break off as independent animals.

(A) attached to stationary surfaces	(B) hidden inside cylindrical objects
(C) floating among underwater flowers	(D) chasing prey around wharf pilings
Question 49: The word "capture" in line 7 is closest in meaning to which of the following ?
(A) Catch	(B) Control	(C) Cover	(D) Clean
Question 50: The sea anemone reproduces by

(C) budding or dividing only	(D) budding, forming eggs, or dividing

KEYS CHI TIẾT 
1. D. mosquito nhấn âm 2, các từ còn lại nhấn âm 1 
2. D. settle: nhấn âm 2, các từ còn lại nhấn âm 1 
34.D.whether mở đầu một mệnh đề, có nghĩa là “có  hay không“. Dịch nghĩa câu đầu ta có thể
chọn ngay phương án D.
Dịch: Thời gian trước đây, các khoa học gia đã bắt đầu thử nghiệm để coi coi có thể xây dựng một
“ngôi làng” ở dưới lòng đại dương hay không. 
35B. into (the) water : xuống nước => be lowered into (the) water : hạ thủy (giới từ into chỉ sự
chuyển động đi xuống – vào trong) 
36C. Sau chỗ trống là một tĩnh từ so sánh hơn (lower), nên trước lower phải là một phó từ chỉ mức
độ bổ nghĩa cho nó. Ta dùng much để bổ nghĩa cho tĩnh từ so sánh hơn. much + tĩnh từ ss hơn. 
37A. make / carry out an observation (observations) : thực hiện cuộc khảo sát 
38D. không thể dùng implant (cấy vào) hay transplant (ghép vào)
còn lại C. growing và D. cultivating, ta chọn D. với động từ cultivate nghĩa là chuẩn bị, và sử dụng
một khu đất / khu vực nào đó để trồng thực vật, từ này có nghĩa tổng quát hơn là grow (đơn thuần là
gieo trồng). 
39B. Đọc đoạn thứ nhất, ta có thể thấy ý tưởng của bộ phim là từ cuộc hội thoại (conversation) khi
Charlin nói chuyện với phóng viên. Trong đo ạn đầu có câu: “Charlie Chaplin was motivated to make the film by a reporter who, while interviewing him, happened to describe the working conditions in
industrial Detroit.” Động từ motivate nghĩa là động cơ, trong ngữ cảnh này chính là khơi ngu ồn cảm
hứng làm bộ phim Modern Times. 
40C. Đọc đoạn thứ nhất, ta thấy câu: “healthy young farm boys were lured to the city to work on
automotive assembly lines.” Động từ lure = attract chia ở bị động tức là bị cuốn hút, lôi kéo. Chúng ta
có thể thấy rằng, young farm boys ra thành phố bởi họ hi vọng có cuộc sống tốt đẹp h ơn
41B. jostling one another nghĩa là xô đẩy lẫn nhau, vậy đáp án B: pushing one another là gần nghĩa
nhất 
42C. Cảnh đầu của bộ phim l à “mass of sheep making their way down a crowded ramp” có tác dụng
ngụ ý (ẩn ý) về hình ảnh những công nhân nh à máy. Vì vậy đáp án đúng là B, tacit nghĩa là ngụ ý, ẩn ý 
43C. Các trạng từ effortlessly (một cách dễ dàng), recklessly ( một cách thiếu thận trọng), hopelessly
(tuyệt vọng), carelessly (một cách bất cẩn), vainly có nghĩa là vô ích, vô vọng, vì vậy từ gần nghĩa
nhất với nó là phương án C 
hopelessly 
44C. Trong đoạn 2 có câu: “ Scenes of factory interiors account for only about one-third of Modern
Times”, interior là bên trong, vì vậy two-thirds sẽ được quay bên ngoài “outside a factory” 
45D. Đoạn cuối có câu:“ It does not offer a radical social message” vì vậy nó không có ý revolution
