PERIOD 60 : Reading skill (topic: Environmental protection) (Advanced group)

Ex 1: Read the passage and do the following tasks.
Visual pollution has a greater effect on people than you may think. I
remember when I went to a foreign city, I was really scared because there was so much graffiti on
the buildings’ walls. Then I looked up, and I saw a lot of power lines over my head. Although
they were not dangerous, I still felt insecure since I thought they might fall down. These things
prevented me from enjoying the beautiful sights of the city.
I also remember the time I studied in Melbourne. Once I was so busy with my assignments that I
did not tidy my room for two weeks. Looking at the messy room caused me so much stress that I
did not want to study. Then I decided to clean the room and put my things in their proper places. I
also bought a small plant and placed it in a corner. These simple actions increased my motivation
and helped me to focus on my learning.

Air pollution is a serious problem in many cities. Motor vehicles, factories and other sources create
so much air pollution that it may hang in the air like dirty fog. Air pollution threatens the health of the

wastes kill fish and make some areas unfit for swimming. In addition, many large cities have difficulties in
disposing of their garbage. The amount of garbage grows each year, but places to put it are quickly filling
up. Citizens, governments, industries, scientists, and business people must work together in different ways to
gradually reduce pollution. For example, most cities have introduced recycling programmes.

Pollution can be seen not only throughout the world, but also in our own homes. It comes from
household chemicals, the amount of water people use and the waste people produce and throw away. What
can be done to stop this pollution? Surprisingly, a person can help save the environment by doing simple
things.
First, we need to recycle, which allows products to be used over and over again. Recycling can also
reduce the number of trees cut down to produce paper products. It takes very little effort. It is not hard to
place plastic and glass bottles, aluminum cans and paper in a bin. Anyone can do it.
Second, we need to watch the amount of water used at home. It can be conserved by taking short
showers instead of baths, repairing leaky faucets, using the dishwasher or washing machine only when fully
loaded, or simply turning the faucet off while brushing your teeth.
Third, we need to reduce waste. We need to recycle whenever possible, but should also try to use this
waste effectively. For example, grass clippings and food scraps can be made into compost for plants. The
average person produces 4.3 pounds of waste every day, but we can reduce that amount by recycling and
reusing.

Two of the most dangerous storms which affect America are hurricanes and tornadoes. They are very
much feared by anyone who may live in the path of their destruction.
Every year homes are destroyed by their fury and often lives are lost. Most people who live near the
coast are forced to evacuate their homes and to move to safer areas until the storm passes. Floods are caused
along the coasts by both the heavy rain and a storm tide that is considerably above normal water level. The
high winds, coastal flooding and heavy rains associated with a hurricane cause enormous damage.
Hurricanes usually develop between July and October. Once they hit land they carry tremendous
power with driving rain and wind.
Tornadoes are violent low - pressured storms. These storms occur most often during the summer
months and are noticeable by their strong wind and lack of rain. The sky turns black as dust is sucked up
into the air. Tornadoes are capable of lifting quite heavy objects from the ground. They can pick up trees and
cars right into the air and even uplift heavier objects such as homes and railway cars.
Both hurricanes and tornadoes cause millions of dollars worth of damage to life and property every
year. Today they can be predicted more easily than in the past, but they cannot be stopped or ignored.

V. Read the passage then answer the questions.
All of us communicate with one another nonverbally, as well as with words. Most of the time we’re not
aware that we're doing it. We gesture with eyebrows or a hand, meet someone else's eyes and look away,
change positions in a chair. These actions we assume are occasional. However in recent years researchers
have discovered that there is a system to them almost as consistent and understandable as language.
One important kind of body language is eye behavior. Americans are careful about how and when they
meet one another's eyes. In our normal conversation, each eye contact lasts only about a second before one
or both of us look away. When two Americans look searchingly into each other’s eyes, they become more
intimate. Therefore, we carefully avoid this, except in suitable situations.
Researchers who are engaged in the study of communication through body movement are not prepared
to spell out a precise vocabulary of gestures. When an American rubs his nose, it may mean he is
disagreeing with someone or refusing something. But there are other possible interpretations, too. Another
example: when a student in conversation with a professor holds the older man's eyes a little longer than is
usual, it can be a sign of respect; it can be something else entirely. The researchers look for patterns in the
situation, not for a separate meaningful gesture.
Communication between human beings would be with just dull if it were all done with words.

Exercise 5: Read the text and decide T (true)/ F (false) for each statement.
WHAT WOULD YOUR LIFE BE LIKE WITHOUT A PHONE?
It is true that everything works at a fast pace these days, due to the quick access we have to pretty much
anything and anyone. For example, you can contact someone who lives on the other side of the world within
seconds. This is great if you think about how connected we can stay to the people who are far away from us;
however, on the contrary, can we be too connected to the people who are close to us? An argument arose
about the fact that it is easier to message someone from your sofa than to meet them in person and talk. On
one hand, it is easier and nice sometimes to casually chat to a friend this way. However, it is also lazier and
rude to prefer to talk to someone on your phone rather than meeting up, if you are able to, in my opinion.
Social skills are important to have and if you are not going to put effort into real-life communication, then
you are not going to progress in this ability.
Another point was that phones are very handy to look up something that you are wondering about. For
example, if you don’t know a word in another language, you can quickly and simply access a translator to
help you out. This can be very helpful in many situations, but it can also make a person dependent on the
internet to help with anything. This factor slightly takes away the diversity of learning a language and
conversing with people, as you are able to access everything you need via the web.
All in all, this question is very interesting to consider for oneself as we become day by day more
dependent on technology. We should just be aware of how much we really need to be connected via our
phones while considering the benefits and damage it can cause us.
No. Statements T/F
1. Everything works at a slow pace nowadays.
2. We contact someone who lives very fat from us within seconds.
3. Phones may make us lazier and ruder in some way.
4. Phones are very inconvenient to look up something that you are
wondering about.
5. We can team a language with a smartphone.

Exercise 6: Read the text and choose the best answer (A, B, C, or D) to each of the questions.
FUTURE OF TECHNOLOGY
Technology is growing by leaps and bounds. Proper use of technology holds a bright future for us.
So, how can technology shape up the future in a better way? Let’s take a look!
Clean Energy
Global energy consumption is increasing and we will face a shortage of fossil fuels in the Corning
decades. However, technology is helping us deal with this problem by developing clean energy.
Development in the field of solar power technology has drastically reduced the cost of solar cells.
Generation of electricity through wind turbines has also grown rapidly in the recent years. So, in the near
future, technology can help us do away with dependence on fossil fuels and embrace clean and green energy
Solutions.
Virtual Reality (VR)
Remember Pokemon Go? Well, that was one of the earliest examples of Virtual
reality. Tech giants like Google, Facebook, and Nokia are spending a huge amount of money to make VR
experience better for the customers. However, with time and further developments, VR can be used for
communication through holograms, for interacting with 3-D objects and other useful and educational
purposes.
Flying cars
This sounds straight out of a movie, but flying cars might soon be mainstream. Amazon has already
started delivering goods with the help of its drones, and Google is working on building its own powerful
drones. A couple of start -ups are also working on building flying cars. A flying car for all intents and
purposes is a drone that is capable of carrying people. There are already a handful of flying vehicle
prototypes: Terrafugia has TF - X; Pal-V has the Pal-V1; I-TEC has the Maverick LSA “Flying Car”; and
lastly AeroMobil s.r.o. has the AeroMobil 3.0.
These are just a few of the amazing technologies that we will have in the corning years. And
what’s next? Teleporting? Anything is possible!
Choose the correct answers.
1. According to the passage, technology can help .
A. create an energy shortage B. reduce energy consumption

C. end our dependence on fossil fuels D. stop using clean energy

2. In the future, Virtual reality can be used for .
A. interacting with 3-D objects B. teaching and learning

C. holographic communication D. all of the above

3. Which statement is true about flying cars?
A. They are just Science Fiction. B. They are presently at the prototype stage.
C. They are produced in large quantities. D. They will be launched in the coming year.
In the sentence “There are already a handful of flying vehicle prototypes...”, what does “a handful
of” mean?
A. a large number of B. a small number of
C. a great deal of D. an amount of
5. The flying car TF-X has been developed by .
A. Terrafugia B. I-TEC C. AeroMobil D. Pal-V
6. Which of the following statement is NOT true?
A. Virtual reality technology is now used in video gaming.
B. Solar power and wind are clean energy.
C. Amazon’s flying cars are being used for delivery.
D. Technology can bring us a bright future.

ARE THERE ANY ALIENS OUT THERE?

For years we Earthlings have wondered (1) ___________ we are alone in the universe
or we’ve got company in the shape of aliens. People have claimed to have met aliens, seen UFOs and some
people even say they’ve been abducted by extraterrestrials. But what do we really know about them - if they
(2) ___________ at all?
Ever since we realised there (3) ___________ be something out there
our imaginations have created thousands of bizarre creatures. But at the moment no one knows what an alien
might look like. Even if we do ever come (4)___________aliens in space, most scientists agree they
probably won’t look like little green men.
(5)___________aliens exists, experts reckon they’re probably very small and look something
like a bug.
Over the years thousands of people have been (6) ___________that we Earthlings
have been visited by aliens from other civilizations. But there’s one problem with this - the number of aliens
(7)___________discovered is zero. There are lots of photos and films of
apparent (8)___________but most have a logical explanation like aeroplanes and military
exercises. Or they’re hoaxes!
- extraterrestrial (n): sinh vật ngoài hành tinh - civilisation (n): nên văn minh
1. A. when B. where C. whether D. whereas
2. A. exist B. happen C. live D. survive

Exercise 5. Read the passage carefully, then do the tasks.

How many planets are there in our galaxy? That’s a tricky question to answer. Are there other
planets that support life? That’s exactly what the Kepler mission hopes to discover.
NASA launched the Kepler space telescope, designed to find habitable planets, in
2009. So far it has discovered five new Earth -sized planets beyond our solar System. These planets are
hotter than the Earth - much too hot for life as we know it. The Kepler team predict that they will need at
least three years to find an Earth-like planet.
The simplest requirement for a planet to have life is for there to be liquid water so the distance from
the planet’s sun and therefore temperature are important. There also needs to be the correct amount of air. If
a planet is as small as Mars (half the size of Earth) its weak
gravity means that it can’t hold on to air molecules. If a planet is Neptune sized (four times bigger than
Earth) it has very strong gravity and too much air. So size matters too.
The cost of the mission is approximately six hundred million dollars. It is scheduled to observe until
2013 but this could be extended. Will we be sad if we discover we are alone in our galaxy or happy if we
find that we share it with other life forms?

4. The Kepler team predict that they will need__________ to find an Earth-like planet.
A. three years and possibly longer B. as much as three years
C. no more than three years D. approximately three years
5. What are the primary factors that make a planet habitable?
A. Liquid water and living things B. Size and distance from the Sun
C. Hot temperature and weak gravity D. Strong gravity and too much air
6. How much does the Kepler mission cost?
A. Exactly $600 million B. About $600 million
C. More than $600 million D. Less than $600 million
7.Which of the following statements is NOT true? A. The

Exercise 8. Read the passage and choose the best answer.

Telephones help people speak to one another when they are apart. For more than a hundred years, nearly
every telephone was a landline. A landline telephone is one that needs to be connected by a wire to a
network of other telephones. Because of the wires, people could not take those telephones with them when
they left their homes or offices.
What if you had to make a call while you were away from home? You had to find a pay phone. Pay phones
are landlines found in public places. Many pay phones are on the street. You can make a call from inside a
glass or metal space called a phone booth. Once you are inside the booth, you put coins into a slot in the
phone to make a call.
Telephones have seen a lot of progress. Today, many people carry cell phones. Cell phones do not need to
be connected with wires. They can be used almost anywhere and can fit in an adult's hand.
Many cell phones sold today are smart phones. A smart phone is a cell phone that has lots of computer-
style features. For example, people use smart phones to check e-mail and go on the Internet. And all that
can be done using something small enough to carry in a pocket!
