Part 1: Read the passage and choose the answer (A, B, C or D) which you think fits best according
to the text. Write your answers in the numbered boxes.
The history of clinical nutrition, or the study of the relationship between health and how the body
takes in and utilizes food substances, can be divided into four distinct eras: the first began in the
nineteenth century and extended into the early twentieth century when it was recognized for the first
time that food contained constituents that were essential for human function and that different foods
provided different amounts of these essential agents. Near the end of this era, research studies
demonstrated that rapid weight loss was associated with nitrogen imbalance and could only be rectified
by providing adequate dietary protein associated with certain foods.
The second era was initiated in the early decades of the twentieth century and might be called "the
vitamin period. “Vitamins came to be recognized in foods, and deficiency syndromes were described.
As vitamins became recognized as essential food constituents necessary for health, it became tempting
to suggest that every disease and condition for which there had been no previous effective treatment
might be responsive to vitamin therapy. At that point in time, medical schools started to become more
interested in having their curricula integrate nutritional concepts into the basic sciences. Much of the
focus of this education was on the recognition of deficiency symptoms. Herein lay the beginning of
what ultimately turned from ignorance to denial of the value of nutritional therapies in medicine.
Reckless claims were made for effects of vitamins that went far beyond what could actually be
achieved from the use of them.
In the third era of nutritional history in the early 1950's to mid-1960's, vitamin therapy began to
fall into disrepute. Concomitant with this, nutrition education in medical schools also became less
popular. It was just a decade before this that many drug companies had found their vitamin sales
skyrocketing and were quick to supply practicing physicians with generous samples of vitamins and 4 Điểm bằng số Điểm bằng chữ Chữ ký G.khảo 1 Chữ ký G.khảo 2 Số phách Số T.tự bài thi [
literature extolling the virtue of supplementation for a variety of health-related conditions.
Expectations as to the success of vitamins in disease control were exaggerated. As is known in
retrospect, vitamin and mineral therapies are much less effective when applied to health-crisis
conditions than when applied to long-term problems of under nutrition that lead to chronic health problems.
1. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The stages of development of clinical nutrition as a field of study

Alexander McCall Smith: Terrible Orchestra? 5 Điểm bằng số Điểm bằng chữ Chữ ký G.khảo 1 Chữ ký G.khảo 2 Số phách Số T.tự bài thi [
Bestselling author Alexander McCall Smith explains why he started a band for useless musicians.
There are two emotions a parent can feel when watching the school orchestra perform. One is pride -
the most common emotion in the circumstances - and the other is envy. Wouldn’t it have been great
fun to be in a school orchestra and now ... it’s too late. Or is it? 0
These musical islands are full of amateur orchestras, but most of these are really rather good. We
wanted something that would cater for those who really were very weak players, those who might have
got as far as Grade 4 on their instruments and hovered around that level for years. So we formed the
Really Terrible Orchestra in Edinburgh, a city known for having a number of fine amateur orchestras.
The name was carefully chosen: what it said was what you would get. 1
Those who joined generally lived up to the name. Some, though, stood out for their musical weakness.
One cello player some years ago even had the notes played by the open strings written in pencil on the
bridge of the instrument. Another - a clarinetist - had had only three or four lessons and could not go
above the middle B flat. He played only the bottom notes, and not very well. 2
Our heads turned, we decided to hold a concert at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The important thing
about the Fringe is that anybody can perform, with the result that there are always a certain number of
appalling performances which attract tiny audiences. 3
The fortunes of the orchestra continued to improve, even if its playing did not. We presumed to make
two CDs, which somehow got into the hands of radio stations abroad. We have now been played more
than once by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and
by National Public Radio in the United States. 4
Even if the orchestra never gets to New York, that will be enough. Of course New York was where the
famous Florence Foster Jenkins would appear, at the Carnegie Hall, and torture her audience with her
terrible singing. Perhaps it’s ready for an orchestra that will live up to her. 5
Which makes one wonder: what is it that makes people want to listen to a group of extremely bad
musicians torturing a piece that most of them cannot play? Is there something about failure and its
cheerful acceptance? Whatever it is, there’s certainly something quite essentially British about it. And
the orchestra does a very fine ‘Land of Hope and Glory’ - a semitone flat.
A. The response was overwhelming, particularly from clarinetists. I suspect that a very high
proportion of the population is exposed to the clarinet at some stage and that British attics are
crammed full of forgotten clarinet cases. Many of these were dusted off for the first meeting of
the Really Terrible Orchestra, as were various other instruments. We appointed a professional
conductor, Richard Neville Towle, a well-known Edinburgh musician and founder of the
ensemble Ludus Baroque, and we began to rehearse. The result was cacophony.
B. The Really Terrible Orchestra, however, was an immediate hit. The concert sold out well in
advance, as it has done every year since, attracting an audience of more than 500 people, some
not actually related to the players.
C. “We are pretty awful,” admitted one of the bassoonists. There is a very wide range of playing
abilities, she added, noting that she herself had only passed Grade 3, the examination normally
taken by 11-year-old British schoolchildren. 6 Điểm bằng số Điểm bằng chữ Chữ ký G.khảo 1 Chữ ký G.khảo 2 Số phách Số T.tự bài thi [
D. Eight years ago my wife and I decided that we would do something about never having played
in the school orchestra. We are both very challenged musicians: at the time she played the flute
- hesitantly - and I played the bassoon - extremely incompetently.
E. Now what has become the world’s most famous amateur orchestra is about to perform in
London. The Cadogan Hall is the site of this imminent musical disaster, and all 800 tickets vanished in a trice.
F. An orchestra needs to perform, and we decided to hold a concert. Wisely, we took the view that
the audience should be given a glass of wine, or even more than a glass, before the concert.
This assisted their enjoyment and understanding of our idiosyncratic performance. Virtually
every piece we played was greeted with shouts of applause and a standing ovation.
G. The orchestra’s fame spread. Earlier this year the New York Times, for a mention in which
many professional musicians would sell their souls, devoted a quarter of a page to an article
about the Really Terrible Orchestra. A few days after the appearance of the article the
orchestra’s chairman, Peter Stevenson, received an approach from the same New York
impresario who had first taken the Beatles to the US. Your answers: 0. D 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
Part 3: Read the following passage and do the tasks that follow. Write your answers in the numbered boxes. PART A
To make political decisions about the extent and type of forestry in a region, it is important to
understand the consequences of those decisions. One tool for assessing the impact of forestry on the
ecosystem is population viability analysis (PVA). This is a tool for predicting the probability that a
species will become extinct in a particular region over a specific period. It has been successfully used
in the United States to provide input into resource exploitation decisions and assist wildlife managers
and there is now enormous potential for using population viability to assist wildlife management in
Australia’s forests. A species becomes extinct when the last individual dies. This observation is a
useful starting point for any discussion of extinction as it highlights the role of luck and chance in the
extinction process. To make a prediction about extinction we need to understand the processes that can
contribute to it and these fall into four broad categories which are discussed below. PART B
Paragraph A. Early attempts to predict population viability were based on demographic uncertainty
whether an individual survives from one year to the next will largely be a matter of chance. Some pairs
may produce several young in a single year while others may produce none in that same year. Small
populations will fluctuate enormously because of the random nature of birth and death and these
chance fluctuations can cause species extinctions even if, on average, the population size should
increase. Taking only this uncertainty of ability to reproduce into account, extinction is unlikely if the
number of individuals in a population is above about 50 and the population is growing.
Paragraph B. Small populations cannot avoid a certain amount of inbreeding. This is particularly true
if there is a very small number of one sex. For example, if there are only 20 individuals of a species
and only one is a male, all future individuals in the species must be descended from that one male. For
most animal species such individuals are less likely to survive and reproduce. Inbreeding increases the chance of extinction.
Paragraph C. Variation within a species is the raw material upon which natural selection acts.
Without genetic variability a species lacks the capacity to evolve and cannot adapt to changes in its
environment or to new predators and new diseases. The loss of genetic diversity associated with
reductions in population size will contribute to the likelihood of extinction. 7 Điểm bằng số Điểm bằng chữ Chữ ký G.khảo 1 Chữ ký G.khảo 2 Số phách Số T.tự bài thi [
Paragraph D. Recent research has shown that other factors need to be considered. Australia’s
environment fluctuates enormously from year to year. These fluctuations add yet another degree of
uncertainty to the survival of many species. Catastrophes such as fire, flood, drought or epidemic may
reduce population sizes to a small fraction of their average level. When allowance is made for these
two additional elements of uncertainty the population size necessary to be confident of persistence for
a few hundred years may increase to several thousand. PART C
Beside these processes we need to bear in mind the distribution of a population. A species that occurs
in five isolated places each containing 20 individuals will not have the same probability of extinction
as a species with a single population of 100 individuals in a single locality. Where logging occurs (that
is, the cutting down of forests for timber) forest-dependent creatures in that area will be forced to
leave. Ground-dwelling herbivores may return within a decade. However, arboreal marsupials (that is
animals which live in trees) may not recover to pre-logging densities for over a century. As more
forests are logged, animal population sizes will be reduced further. Regardless of the theory or model
that we choose, a reduction in population size decreases the genetic diversity of a population and
increases the probability of extinction because of any or all of the processes listed above. It is therefore
a scientific fact that increasing the area that is loaded in any region will increase the probability that
forest-dependent animals will become extinct.

Part 1: Read the following passage and use your own words to summarize it. Your summary should
be between 100 and 120 words long. You MUST NOT copy the original.
Not long ago, a survey reported that 50% of men and 25% of women read while sitting on the toilet.
Perhaps this is not so surprising. Many homes have magazine racks in bathrooms next to toilets.
However, many people read in public restrooms as well. In our modem age, though, they are not always reading books!
Today, just about everyone you meet owns a cell phone, and many of these phones are like small
computers. Most phones can store and send text while others can even access the Internet. Thus, while
sitting on the toilet, people with such high tech phones can check email, text messages with friends, or
surf online. Of course, they can also chat the old-fashioned way by using their voices.
Such restroom activities can be risky. Plumbers often receive calls from restaurants and bars asking
them to fix a toilet with a cell phone stuck in it. Cell phone insurance companies also commonly
receive claims to replace cell phones damaged by water. The damage may have occurred in pools or
lakes, but toilets are also to blame.
The good news is that not all phones die after falling into the toilet; it is possible to save them. Just
follow these steps. First, get the phone out of the toilet. Then, take out the battery and dry it off. Dry
the phone as well. If the memory card can be removed, take it out and dry it. Next, put the phone in a
bag of dry rice. Leave it there for a day. If the water damage was not severe, the phone should work after that.
