IX. Circle the best option A, B, C or D to complete the passage (2.5 pts)
WHAT IS THE BEAUTY IN A PERSON?
It is said that what one (51) considers beautiful may not be beautiful to another. (52)
beauty is something that (53) not only to the eyes, but also the other senses. I think true
beauty makes you see beyond the lovely sight. It will give you insight or realization of
something (54) beyond the appearance.
When we talk about beauty in people, we often refer to their (55) attractiveness. Of
course, a beautiful or handsome face is pleasant to (56). But I find that the most memorable
”beautiful people” are those who have good personalities behind their pretty faces.
(57) kind of beauty in people that attracts us greatly is what known as the inside
beauty. People with this kind of beauty have attained inner peace. They usually care about
their fellow -man, and try to right the justice in this world. As you know, Nelson Mandela,
Princess Diana and Mother Teresa are well-known for these personalities.
In fact, around us, we know many people who are always ready to lend (58) to people
in trouble. Many people in our city provide (59) of floods in Mekong Delta, the disabled or
the poor.... with clothes, money and food. Many young go to rural, mountainous or island
areas to help people there... We greatly admire the beauty of these people because they make
the world better. This inner beauty gives a certain radiance to their looks.
In short, everyone has (60) idea of beauty, and we need to have things, people and
places of beauty in our everyday life. Do you think so?
51. A. individual
B. persons
C. people
D. member
52. A. With me
B. For me
C. To me
D. Of me
53. A. pleasant
B. pleases
C. pleased
D. pleasing
54. A. interesting
B. interested

X. Read the passage below and choose the best answer from A, B, C, or D (1.25 pts)
Isn't it amazing how much time we spend talking about food ?“Have you ever
eaten......?” “ What did you have for lunch ?” and so on. And yet when you travel from
one country to another, you find that people have quite different feelings about food.
People often feel that what they eat is normal, and that what other people eat is strange or
silly.
In most part of Asia, for example, no meal is complete without rice. In England,
people eat potatoes every day. In the Middle East, bread is the main part of every meal.
Eating, like so many things we do, becomes a habit which is difficult to change.
Americans like to drink a lot of orange juice and coffee. The English drink tea four or
five times every day. Australians drink large amount of beer, and the French drink wine
every day.
The sort of meat people like to eat also differs from one country to another.
Horsemeat is thought to be delicious in France. In Hong Kong, some people enjoy eating
snakes. Newzelanders eat sheep, but they never eat goat meat. The Japanese don't like eat
sheep meat because of its smell, but they enjoy rawfish.
So it seems that although eating is a topic that we can talk about for hours, there is
little common sense in what we say about it. People everywhere enjoy eating what they
have always been eating, and there is very little we can do to change our eating habits.
61. The writer think that.............................
A. people eat only what is normal to everybody
B. people often change their feelings about food
C.people have different opnions about food
D .people like eating different food as they travel from one country to another.
62. In many Asian countries............................
A. people almost always have rice in their meal
B. rice is a perfect food
C. rice is included in every menu
D. rice is completely eaten
63. The text is mainly about.............................
A. people's attitude to food
B. the importance of meat
C. strange dishes in the world
D. food and life
64. The Japanese enjoy eating raw fish because.............................
A. it doesn't smell
B. it is special to them
C. it is well boiled
D. it is not good to have fish cooked
65. People everywhere think that..............................
A. we can spend few hours talking about food
B. there is very little common sense in talking about food
C. there is very little common sense in what we say about the eating habits
D. we should do much to change our eating habits.
