correct answer to each of the questions from 45 to 54.
If parents bring up a child with the sole aim of turning the child into a genius (thiên tài), they will
cause a disaster. According to several leading educational psychologists, this is one of the biggest mistakes
which ambitious parents make. Generally, the child will be only too aware of what his parents expect, and
will fail. Unrealistic parental expectations can cause great damage to children.
However, if parents are not too unrealistic about what they expect their children to do, but are
ambitious in a sensible way, the child may succeed in doing very well – especially if the parents are very
supportive of their child. Michael Collins is very lucky. He is crazy about music, and his parents help him a
lot by taking him to concerts and arranging private piano and violin lessons for him. They even drive him 50
kilometers twice a week for violin lessons. Michael’s mother knows very little about music, but his father
plays the trumpet in a large orchestra. However, he never makes Michael enter music competitions if he is
unwilling. Winston Smith, Michael’s friend, however, is not so lucky. Both his parents are successful
musicians, and they set too high a standard for Winston. They want their son to be as successful as they are
and so they enter him for every piano competition held. They are very unhappy when he does not win.
Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint his parents and now he always seems quiet and unhappy.
Question 45: One of the serious mistakes parents can make is to ______.
A. push their child into trying too much B. help their child to become a genius
C. make their child become a musician D. neglect their child’s education
Question 46: Parents’ ambition for their children is not wrong if they ______.
A. force their children into achieving success B. themselves have been very successful
C. understand and help their children sensibly D. arrange private lessons for their children
Question 47: Who have criticized the methods of some ambitious parents?
A. Successful musicians. B. Unrealistic parents. C. Their children. D. Educational psychologists.
Question 48: Michael Collins is fortunate in that ______.
A. his father is a musician B. his parents are quite rich
C. his mother knows little about music D. his parents help him in a sensible way

A. successful parents always have intelligent children
B. successful parents often have unsuccessful children
C. parents should let the child develop in the way he wants
D. parents should spend more money on the child’s education
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 questions from 55 to 64.
Psychologists have debated a long time about whether a child’s upbringing can give it the ability to
do outstandingly well. Some think that it is impossible to develop genius and say that it is simply something
a person is born with. Others, however, argue that the potential for great achievement can be develop. The
truth lies somewhere between these two extremes.
It seems very obvious that being born with the right qualities from gifted parents will increase a
child’s ability to do well. However, this ability will be fully realized only with the right upbringing and
opportunities. As one psychologist says, “To have a fast car, you need both a good engine and fuel.”
Scientists have recently assessed intelligence, achievement, and ability in 50 sets of identical twins
that were separated shortly birth and brought up by different parents. They found that achievement was
based on intelligence, and later influenced by the child’s environment.
One case involving very intelligent twins was quoted. One of the twins received a normal upbringing,
and performed well. The other twin, however, was brought up by extremely supportive parents and given
every possible opportunity to develop its abilities. That twin, though starting out with the same degree of
intelligence as the other, performed even better.
VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí
This case reflects the general principle of intelligence and ability. The more favorable the
environment, the more a child’s intelligence and ability are developed. However, there is no link between
intelligence and socioeconomic level of a child’s family. In other words, it does not matter how poor or how
rich a family is, as this does not affect the intelligence.
Gifted people can not be created by supportive parents, but they can be developed by them. One
professor of music said that outstanding musicians usually started two or three years earlier than ordinary
performers, often because their parents had recognized their ability. These musicians then needed at least ten
years’ hard work and training in order to reach the level they were capable of attaining.
People who want to have very gifted children are given the following advice:
- Marry an intelligent person.
- Allow children to follow their own interests rather than the interests of the parents.
- Start a child’s education early but avoid pushing the child too hard.
- Encourage children to play; for example, playing with musical instrument is essential for a child who
wants to become an outstanding musician.
Question 55: When scientists studied intelligence and ability in twins, they found that ______.
A. different twins generally have different levels of ability
B. ability depends mainly on intelligence and achievement
C. intelligence and development are irrelevant to ability
D. ability depends both on intelligence and environment

A. they are born into the same family, hence the same upbringing
B. they have the same genetic background, usually with similar intelligence
C. they have the same economic background and hence the same opportunities
D. each twin has the same environment as his/ her twin
Question 57: How were great musicians different from ordinary musicians in their development?
A. Their ability was realized at an early stage and then nurtured
B. They practice playing their instruments for many years
C. They were exceptionally intelligent and artistic
D. They concentrated on music to the exclusion of other areas

Most people go to a doctor in their own town or suburbs. But people in the Australian outback can’t
get to a doctor quickly. The nearest doctor is sometimes hundreds of kilometers away so they have to call
him on a two-way radio. This special doctor is call the "flying doctor". He visits sick people by plane.

When someone is sick, the doctor has to fly to the person's home. His plane lands on a flat piece of
ground near the person's house. Sometimes the doctor has to take the patient to hospital. Flying doctors take
about 8,600 people to hospital each year.
However, most of the time the person isn't very sick, and the doctor doesn't have to visit. He can give
advice on the radio from the office at the flying doctor center. He can tell the patient to use some medicine
from a special medicine chest. There is one of these chests in every home in the outback. Each bottle, tube
and packet in the chest has a number. The doctor often says something like this, "Take two tablets from
bottle number 5 every four hours."

couples and single parents were having on their children. Fear was the biggest problem faced by children at
home alone. One in three latchkey children the Longs talked to reported being frightened. Many had
nightmares and were worried about their own safety.

If parents bring up a child with the sole aim of turning the child into a genius (thiên tài), they will
cause a disaster. According to several leading educational psychologists, this is one of the biggest mistakes
which ambitious parents make. Generally, the child will be only too aware of what his parents expect, and
will fail. Unrealistic parental expectations can cause great damage to children.
However, if parents are not too unrealistic about what they expect their children to do, but are
ambitious in a sensible way, the child may succeed in doing very well – especially if the parents are very
supportive of their child. Michael Collins is very lucky. He is crazy about music, and his parents help him a
lot by taking him to concerts and arranging private piano and violin lessons for him. They even drive him 50
kilometers twice a week for violin lessons. Michael’s mother knows very little about music, but his father
plays the trumpet in a large orchestra. However, he never makes Michael enter music competitions if he is
unwilling. Winston Smith, Michael’s friend, however, is not so lucky. Both his parents are successful
musicians, and they set too high a standard for Winston. They want their son to be as successful as they are
and so they enter him for every piano competition held. They are very unhappy when he does not win.
Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint his parents and now he always seems quiet and unhappy.
Question 45: One of the serious mistakes parents can make is to ______.
A. push their child into trying too much B. help their child to become a genius
C. make their child become a musician D. neglect their child’s education
Question 46: Parents’ ambition for their children is not wrong if they ______.
A. force their children into achieving success B. themselves have been very successful
C. understand and help their children sensibly D. arrange private lessons for their children

A. Successful musicians. B. Unrealistic parents. C. Their children. D. Educational psychologists.
Question 48: Michael Collins is fortunate in that ______.
A. his father is a musician B. his parents are quite rich
C. his mother knows little about music D. his parents help him in a sensible way

Question 54: The two examples given in the passage illustrate the principle that ______.
A. successful parents always have intelligent children
B. successful parents often have unsuccessful children
C. parents should let the child develop in the way he wants
D. parents should spend more money on the child’s education
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 questions from 55 to 64.
Psychologists have debated a long time about whether a child’s upbringing can give it the ability to
do outstandingly well. Some think that it is impossible to develop genius and say that it is simply something
a person is born with. Others, however, argue that the potential for great achievement can be develop. The
truth lies somewhere between these two extremes.
It seems very obvious that being born with the right qualities from gifted parents will increase a
child’s ability to do well. However, this ability will be fully realized only with the right upbringing and
opportunities. As one psychologist says, “To have a fast car, you need both a good engine and fuel.”
Scientists have recently assessed intelligence, achievement, and ability in 50 sets of identical twins
that were separated shortly birth and brought up by different parents. They found that achievement was
based on intelligence, and later influenced by the child’s environment.
One case involving very intelligent twins was quoted. One of the twins received a normal upbringing,
and performed well. The other twin, however, was brought up by extremely supportive parents and given
every possible opportunity to develop its abilities. That twin, though starting out with the same degree of
intelligence as the other, performed even better.
VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí
This case reflects the general principle of intelligence and ability. The more favorable the
environment, the more a child’s intelligence and ability are developed. However, there is no link between
intelligence and socioeconomic level of a child’s family. In other words, it does not matter how poor or how
rich a family is, as this does not affect the intelligence.
Gifted people can not be created by supportive parents, but they can be developed by them. One
professor of music said that outstanding musicians usually started two or three years earlier than ordinary
performers, often because their parents had recognized their ability. These musicians then needed at least ten
years’ hard work and training in order to reach the level they were capable of attaining.
People who want to have very gifted children are given the following advice:
- Marry an intelligent person.
- Allow children to follow their own interests rather than the interests of the parents.
- Start a child’s education early but avoid pushing the child too hard.
- Encourage children to play; for example, playing with musical instrument is essential for a child who
wants to become an outstanding musician.
Question 55: When scientists studied intelligence and ability in twins, they found that ______.
A. different twins generally have different levels of ability
B. ability depends mainly on intelligence and achievement
C. intelligence and development are irrelevant to ability
D. ability depends both on intelligence and environment
Question 56: Scientists chose twins for their study because ______.
A. they are born into the same family, hence the same upbringing
B. they have the same genetic background, usually with similar intelligence
C. they have the same economic background and hence the same opportunities
D. each twin has the same environment as his/ her twin
Question 57: How were great musicians different from ordinary musicians in their development?
A. Their ability was realized at an early stage and then nurtured
B. They practice playing their instruments for many years
C. They were exceptionally intelligent and artistic
D. They concentrated on music to the exclusion of other areas
Question 58: The writer advises that gifted children should be allowed to follow ______.
A. only their interests in computer games B. only their interests in musical instruments

Most people go to a doctor in their own town or suburbs. But people in the Australian outback can’t
get to a doctor quickly. The nearest doctor is sometimes hundreds of kilometers away so they have to call

When someone is sick, the doctor has to fly to the person's home. His plane lands on a flat piece of
ground near the person's house. Sometimes the doctor has to take the patient to hospital. Flying doctors take
about 8,600 people to hospital each year.
However, most of the time the person isn't very sick, and the doctor doesn't have to visit. He can give
advice on the radio from the office at the flying doctor center. He can tell the patient to use some medicine
from a special medicine chest. There is one of these chests in every home in the outback. Each bottle, tube
and packet in the chest has a number. The doctor often says something like this, "Take two tablets from
bottle number 5 every four hours."

couples and single parents were having on their children. Fear was the biggest problem faced by children at
home alone. One in three latchkey children the Longs talked to reported being frightened. Many had
