The latest addiction to trap thousands of people is the Internet, which has been blamed for broken relationships, job losses, financial ruin, and even suicide.

A recent study found that many users spend up to 40 hours a week on the Internet. Some of the addicts are teenagers who are already hooked on computer games and who find it very difficult to resist the games on the Internet. 1. What is the best title of the passage? a.

Cấu trúc câu so sánh hơn: Đối với tính từ ngắn Đối với tính từ dài S1 + to be + adj +er + than + S2 Với tính từ ngắn, thêm đuơi “er” vào sau tính từ Với tính từ dài, thêm đuơi “more” vào trước tính từ Ví dụ: Ví dụ: China is bigger than India Gold is more valuable than silver Lan is shorter than Nam Hanh is more beautiful than Hoa My house is bigger than your house Your book is more expensive than my book His pen is newer than my pen Exercise 1 is more difficult than exercise 2 Lưu ý: Để nhấn mạnh ý trong câu so sánh hơn, ta thêm “much” hoặc “far” trước hình thức so sánh Ví dụ: Her boyfriend is much/ far older than her III.

Living in the country is something that people from the city often dream about. However, in reality, it has both advantages and disadvantages. There are certainly many advantages of living in the country. First, you can enjoy peace and quietness. Moreover, people tend to be friendlier. A further advantage is that there is less traffic, so it is safer for young children. However, there are certain disadvantages or drawbacks to life outside the city.

For 3,000 years, Mongolians have lived in the rural areas, adopting a pastoral way of life, moving in the search of new pastures. They depend largely on their livestock for a living and sustain themselves with what they can get from the land. Today, approximately half of Mongolia’s population is still roaming the vast plains living in the ger and moving their campings several timesa year. Nomadic life thrives in summer and survives in winter. When temperatures are warm, they work hard on their farms to get milk and make airag, consuming meat from their sheeps and goats. Once winter comes, temperatures dip extremely low and they stay indoors and survive on horse meat. With the rise of technology, changes in the Mongolian nomadic lifestyle are almost inevitable. While they still lead their lifestyle as pastoral herders, many use motorbikes to herd cattle and horses. To move their homes, trucks have taken the place of ox carts. Solar panels are also becoming an addition to the ger, giving them access to electricity without being confined to one place. The nomads use solar energy to power television sets and mobile phones. 1. Mongolians regularly move from place to place in order to ___. a.look for food for their family b. find pastures for their livestock c. herd their cattle and horses d. sell their animals and farm products 2. How many Mongolians still live a traditional nomadic life? a.Close to 40 percent b. More than 50 percent c. About 50 percent d. Approximately 60 percent 31
32. 3. What is a ger? a.A portable, round tent b. A thatched house c. A circular house made of snow d. A wooden hut 4. What is the Mongolian’s main food in winter? a.airag b. goat meat c. sheep meat d. horse meat 5. Today, Mongolian nomads ___. a.don’t lead their lifestyle as herders any more b.use ox carts to move their homes c.use solar energy to power electronic devices d.have the advantage of urban life 6. Which of the followings is NOT true about Mongolian nomads? a.They live in the countryside. b.They live by and for their livestock. c.They work hard in winter when the temperature dip very low. d.They are now taking advantage of technology. XIV.Read the text carefully, then answer the questions. Many people enjoy living in a big city because they think life is more exciting there. However, I come from a small village and in my view, there are lots of benefits. The main reason I prefer village life is because it’s very quiet, so I always feel calm when I’m here. Another reason is that the air is so fresh and clean. We have more green spaces and bigger gardens, too. In addition, I think the people here are friendlier. Personally, I’m interested in wildlife photography, so the countryside is perfect for me. The only downside is transport. I have an early start for a long Journey to school in Faro and the school bus is always stopping to pick up more people. Also, it’s boring sometimes, but I enjoy chatting to my friends. Fortunately, I’m learning to ride a moped. On balance, I disagree that city life is better, as I think my village lifestyle is healthier and more relaxing.
