I knew it was going to be a bad day when, on the way to the airport, the taxi driver told me he was lost.
I had booked my flight over the telephone, so when we finally arrived, I had to rush to
the reservation desk to pay for my ticket. The woman at the desk told me that my name
was not on the passenger list. It took fifteen minutes to realize that she had spelled my
name incorrectly. She gave me the ticket and told me I'd better check in my luggage
quickly or I'd miss my night. I was the last person to get on the plane.
I found my seat and discovered that I was sitting next to a four-year old boy who had a
cold. I sat down and wondered if anything else could go wrong. I hate flying, especially
take-off, but the plane took off and everything seemed to be all right. Then, a few minutes
later, there was a funny noise and everything started to shake. I looked out of the window
and – oh my God - there was smoke coming out of the wing. All I could think was "The
engines are on fire. We are going to crash. I am too young to die,"
Almost immediately, the captain spoke to us in a very calm voice "Ladies and
gentlement. This is your captain speaking. We are having a slight technical problem with
one of our engines. There is no need to panic. We will have to return to the airport. Please
remain seated and keep your seat belts fastened."
A few minutes later, we were coming on to land. The pilot made a perfect landing on
the runway. It was over. We were safe. That day I decided not to fly again. I caught Page 1
another taxi and went home. But as I closed the front door. I looked down at my case.
Somehow I had picked up the wrong suitcase. * Questions:
1/ How long did it take her to get her ticket?

2/ Was there nothing wrong with her on the way to the airport?

Spring School is an informal school. It provides classes to disadvantaged children in Ho Chi Minh city.
Around 30 street children live and study at the school and about 250 children with special difficulties
from District 1 regularly attend classes.

The next thing to do is the shopping. Make sure buy more than enough of everything, and that
someone can help you carry it! Page 19

Preparations for Tet, Vietnamese New Year, start two or three months before the actual
celebrations. People try to pay off their debts in advance so that they can be debt-free on Tet.
Parents buy new clothes for their children so that the children can wear them when Tet arrives.
Because a lot of commercial activities will cease during the celebrations people try to stock up on supplies as much as possible.
In the days leading up to Tet, the streets and markets are full of people. Everyone is busy
buying food, clothes, and decorating for their house. Each family prepares some special foods for
the holiday. Those who live far away from home will try to come home to celebrate Tet with
their family. Vietnamese families usually have a family altar to pay respect to their ancestors.
During Tet the altar is thoroughly cleaned and new offerings are placed there.
On New Year’s Eve each home is thoroughly cleaned and decorated with flowers and
offerings for ancestors by the night before Tet. Many people stay up until midnight to welcome
the New Year or go to the pagoda to pray for luck, prosperity, and happiness.
In the morning, actual Tet celebrations begin. The first day of Tet is reserved for the
nuclear family. In big cities, the streets are usually empty as most people stay at home or leave
the city to visit their close relatives in the countryside. Usually, children dress their new clothes
and give their elders the traditional Tet greetings before receiving the lucky money.

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 following questions.
Basic to any understanding of Canada in the 20 years after the Second World War is the country’s
impressive population growth. For every three Canadians in 1945, there were over five in 1966. In
September 1966 Canada’s population passed the 20 million mark. Most of this surging growth came
from natural increase. The depression of the 1930s and the war had held back marriages, and the
catching-up process began after 1945. The baby boom continued through the decade of the 1950s,
producing a population increase of nearly fifteen percent in the five years from 1951 to 1956 This rate of
increase had been exceeded only once before in Canada’s history, in the decade before 1911 when the
prairies were being settled. Undoubtedly, the good economic conditions of the 1950s supported a growth
in the population, but the expansion also derived from a trend toward earlier marriages and an increase in
the average size of families. In 1957 the Canadian birth rate stood at 28 per thousand, one of the highest in the world.
After the peak year of 1957, the birth rate in Canada began to decline. It continued falling until in
1966, it stood at the lowest level in 25 years. Partly this decline reflected the low level of births during the
depression and the war, but it was also caused by changes in Canadian society. Young people were
staying at school longer; more women were working; young married couples were buying automobiles or
houses before starting families; rising living standards were cutting down the size of families. It appeared
that Canada was once more falling in step with the trend toward smaller families that had occurred all
through the Western world since the time of the Industrial Revolution.
Although the growth in Canada’s population had slowed down by 1966 (the increase in the first
half of the 1960s was only nine percent), another large population wave was coming over the horizon. It
would be composed of the children who were born during the period of the high birth rate prior to 1957.

others the chance to get to know each other better. It needs planning, though. First, make a guest list, with
different kinds of people and a mixture of women and men. Don't invite couples because they aren't so much fun.
When you know who can come, find out what they like to eat and drink. Note down any who are
vegetarians, or who can't eat or drink certain things for religious seasons.
Then plan their menu. Include a first course, a choice of main courses and a dessert, plus lots of people's
favourite drinks. The next thing to do is the shopping. Make sure buy more than enough of everything,
and that someone can help you carry it!
On the day, start cooking early. Give people appetizers like Greek mezze or Spanish tapas, so they don't
get hungry if they have to wait. Serve the delicious meal, sit down with your guests and have a good time – you've earned it!
Question 31: Which of the following is NOT mentioned as the purpose of giving a dinner party?
A. to entertain people. B. to make new friends.
C. to get people to know more about their host and hostess. D. to help people to know each other better.
Question 32: When giving a dinner party, you should NOT invite.........................
A. husbands and wives. B. those who are vegetarians.
C. both women and men. D. those who can't eat or drink certain things.
Question 33: The menu should include these EXCEPT..........................

A. because the guests want to have a good time together
