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 38 to 42.

  Lead poisoning in children is a major health concern. Both low and high doses of paint can have serious effects. Children exposed to high doses of lead often suffer permanent nerve damage, mental retardation, blindness, and even death. Low doses of lead can lead to mild mental retardation, short attention spans, distractibility, poor academic performance, and behavioral problems.

  This is not a new concern. As early as 1904, lead poisoning in children was linked to lead-based paint. Microscopic lead particles from paint are absorbed into the bloodstream when children ingest flakes of chipped paint,plaster,or paint dust from sanding. Lead can also enter the body through household dust, nailbiting, thumb sucking, or chewing on toys and other objects painted with lead-based paint. Although American paint companies today must comply with strict regulations regarding the amount of lead used in their paint, this source of lead poisoning is still the most common and most dangerous. Children living in older, dilapidated houses are particularly at risk.

Which of the following does the passage infer?

A. Paint companies can no longer use lead in their paint. 

B. Paint companies must limit the amount of lead used in their paint. 

Đáp án chính xác

C. Paint companies aren't requừed to limit the amount of lead used in their paint. 

D. Paint companies have always followed restrictions regarding the amount of lead used in their paint.

Dịch bài đọc:

Ngộ độc chì ở trẻ em là một vấn đề sức khoẻ nghiêm trọng. Đã gọi là sơn thì liều lượng cao hay thấp đều có thể gây hậu quả nghiêm trọng. Trẻ tiếp xúc với chì ở liều lượng cao thường bị tổn thương lâu dài về thần kinh, thiểu năng trí tuệ, mù mắt, thậm chí mất mạng. Nhiễm chì mức độ thấp thì có thể thiểu năng trí tuệ ch t ít, kém tập trung, dễ xao lãng, kết quả học tập kém và có vấn đề về hành vi ứng xử.

Đây không phải là một mối quan tâm mới. Ngay từ đầu năm 1904, tình trạng trẻ bị nhiễm chì đã được cho là có liên quan tới sơn có chì. Hạt chì li ti trong sơn sẽ thấm vào máu khi trẻ nuốt phải những mảnh sơn, vữa bị tróc hoặc bụi sơn trong cát. Chì cũng có thể xâm nhập cơ thể qua bụi bặm trong nhà, do trẻ cắn móng tay, mút tay hoặc nhai đồ chơi và những món đồ nào sơn bằng sơn có chì. Mặc dù hiện nay các hãng sơn của Mỹ phải tuân thủ các quy định nghiêm ngặt về lượng chì dùng trong sơn, nhưng sơn vẫn là nguồn gây nhiễm độc chì phổ biến nhất, nguy hiểm nhất. Đặc biệt là trẻ sống trong những ngôi nhà cũ đổ nát thì càng dễ bị nhiễm chì hơn nữa.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 25 to 29. Fill in the appropriate word in question 25

  A trend that has emerged recently is the sharing of childcare (25) __________ between husband and wife. Young couples will try to arrange their work schedules so that they work opposite hours or shifts in order that one parent is always home with the children. Since childcare is expensive, this saves money for the young couple trying to establish themselves and provide a secure environment for the family. Husband and wife may also share household chores. Some fathers are just as capable as mothers at cooking dinner, changing and bathing the baby, and doing the laundry.

    In some cases, the woman’s salary is for family (26) __________ and the father becomes the “househusband." These cases are still fairly rare. One positive trend, however, is that fathers seem to be spending more time with their children. In a recent survey, 41% of the children sampled said they spend equal time with their mothers and fathers. “This is one of our most significant cultural changes,” says Dr. Leon Hoffman, who co-directs the Parent Child Center at the New York Psychoanalytic Society. In practice, for over 30 years, Hoffman has found "a very dramatic difference in the involvement of the father in everything from care-taking to general decision (27) __________ around kids' lives.”

  Another factor has recently been added to the childcare formula. The number of people who work from home nearly full-time rose 23% from the last decade. The (28) _________ of technology - computers, faxes, teleconferencing - has made it easier for at-home workers to be constantly in touch. Will this new flexibility in the workforce bring a positive change for the (29) __________ of children? Only time will tell.
