READING 1. Read the passage. Circle A, B or C to answer each question. First explorations into the planets Human’s dream of stepping into the outer space has been long ago and Jules Verne - a famous fiction writer of the 19th century was the first to describe such journeys. However, it was not until 14 September 1959 when the first artificial object - Lunar 2 - reached the moon. It was a journey of around 36 hours. Then on 3 February 1966 Luna 9 - an unmanned space mission - achieved a soft landing on the moon and transmitted photographic data to Earth. Lunar 10 - a robotic spacecraft mission entered lunar orbit on April 3, 1966. On 20 July 1969, the first manned landing on the moon was made by Neil Armstrong. After his journey, a series of journeys to other planets were made. The first flyby - the flight of a spacecraft near a planet to record data - of Venus was made by Mariner 2 in 1962. Other flybies include that in 1965 for Mars by Mariner 4, 1973 for Jupiter by Pioneer 10, 1974 for Mercury by Mariner 10, 1979 for Saturn by Pioneer 11, 1986 for Uranus by Voyager 2, 1989 for Neptune by Voyager 2. 1. Jules Verne was the first ___. A. to dream of flying into space B. to enter the moon C. to describe space journeys 2. Lunar 2 was the first artificial object to ___. A. orbit the moon
2. B. reach the moon C. land on the moon 3. Lunar 9 ___. A. was launched eight years after Lunar 2 B. was launched with a human C. could send photographic data to Earth 4. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true of Lunar 10? A. It was launched with a robot. B. It was launched in the same year with Lunar 9. C. It landed on the moon. 5. A flyby is a flight of a spacecraft ___. A. near Venus, Mars and Mercury to take pictures B. made near a planet to gain data of the planet C. made in 1962, 1974 and 1898 2. Read the passage about space. Decide if the statements are true (T) or false (F). Circle T or F. In the past, the study of space was mainly carried out by astronomers using telescopes. However, astronomers sometimes had it wrong. Meanwhile, apart from the desire to conquer the world around, humans also want more space to accomodate the world’s increasing population. Owing to the developments in space technology, humans have made spectacular explorations and discoveries of the space. The explorations can be conducted either by unmanned robotic probes or by human spaceflights. Undeniably, those achievements have been made quickly as a result of the “space race” by the Soviet Union and the United States. Within more than two decades, from the beginning of 1950s to 1970s, the two nations launched many of the milestones, from launching living beings into space to launching flybies to observe planets. However, the biggest achievement of the 21st century has been the cooperation in launching the International Space Station, which serves as space environment research laboratory for experiments in many fields. It is also suited for the testing of spacecraft systems and equipment required for missions to the Moon and Mars. Hopefully, in the near future, space technological advancements will soon allow us to find out habitable space environment. 1. The study of space via telescopes may not always bring the right findings. T F 2. One purpose of space explorations is to look for habitable places. T F 3. The developments in technology allow scientists to discover more about space. T F 4. The Soviet Union and the United States cooperated in space explorations in the 1950s. T F 5. International Space Station is the result of joint efforts by nations. T F III. WRITING 1. Complete each of the following sentences using the cues given.

5. Interviewer: What exactly does a graphic designer do? Julia: Well, we create visual concepts to deliver a desired message. We develop graphics for production illustrations, logos, websites. We also develop overall layout and production design for advertisements, brochures, magazines, corporate reports, etc. Interviewer: So it’s mostly involved images? Julia: We work with text as well. We use different types, fonts, sizes, colours, styles etc. to create special effects. We also decide how images and text will go together on a print or webpage, including how much space each will have. Interviewer: So do you have to own a computer? Julia: You can create images either on a computer or by hand. But I would say I cannot work without a computer. A graphic designer combines art with technology you know. Interviewer: Cool. How can I become a graphic designer? Julia: Graphic designers usually need a bachelor’s degree in graphic design or a related field. Candidates for graphic design positions should demonstrate their creativity and originality through a professional portfolio that features their best designs. Interviewer: And? Julia: And you should be good at visual thinking. With good visual thinking, you can transform statistical data into visual graphics and diagrams, which can make complex ideas a lot more accessible.

6. Interviewer: Is it important what subjects you take? Dr. Green: Oh yes, definitely. What subjects you take will decide what you will continue to study at the college or university.

I’ve finished my last examination so now I have more free time. Yesterday I decided to attend the cooking club at my school, and guess what? We were taught how to make banh bo – my favourite dish. I have the dish every weekend. The ingredients are quite simple. You just need some rice flour, sugar, coconut milk, tapioca starch and some brown yeast. It takes quite a long time to make it, but it’s worth waiting because the flavour is great. I like it because it reminds me of sweet childhood memories. Please come over to my home this summer holiday. I’ll make some banh bo for you. Love, IV. SPEAKING
