Đáp án C

Dịch đề bài: Mary cãi nhau với bạn trai ngày hôm qua. Sáng nay cô ấy không muốn trả lời điện thoại của anh ta. (ngụ ý: hôm qua cãi nhau nên hôm nay không muốn nghe điện thoại).

Dịch đáp án:

  1. A. Việc từ chối trả lời điện thoại của Mary dẫn đến trận cãi nhau với bạn trai ngày hôm qua. → ngược nghĩa so với đề bài
  2. B. Mặc dù Mary cãi nhau với bạn trai ngày hôm qua nhiều thế nào đi chăng nữa, cô ấy vẫn nghe điện thoại của bạn trai vào sáng nay. → sai nghĩa
  3. C. Vì đã cãi nhau với bạn trai ngày hôm trước, Mary từ chối nghe điện thoại của anh ta sáng nay → đúng
  4. D. Trước khi Mary cãi nhau với bạn trai vào hôm qua, cô ấy đã trả lời điện thoại của anh ta. → sai nghĩa.

Đáp án C đúng, vì đề bài ngụ ý rằng Mary cãi nhau với bạn trai hôm trước nên sáng nay không nghe điện thoại của anh ta. Đáp án C dùng phân từ hoàn thành (having + P2) để nối hai mệnh đề cùng chủ ngữ là Mary. Mệnh đề có phân từ hoàn thành ở đây cung cấp thông tin về nguyên nhân và thời gian cho mệnh đề sau.

Câu 2:

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.

  Being repeatedly late may just be accidental - or could it show a deeply rooted psychological desire to express your own superiority? when I worked in an office, meetings would often start late, usually because of a certain individual. Then they would overrun and the whole day lost its shape. But the individual was high-ranking and self-important: nobody challenged. So, what are the ethics of lateness?

  There’s a psychotherapist called Irvin Yalom who argues that all behaviour reflects psychology. Just as people who like to be on time are motivated by certain deep-seated beliefs, so those who make others wait are acting out an inner agenda, often based on an acute sense of power. There’s famous footage in which Silvio Berlusconi kept Angela Merkel waiting while he made a call on his mobile. It speaks volumes.

  But that is when all lateness is in one’s control, what about when your train is cancelled or your flight is delayed or you had to wait longer for the plumber to arrive? In such cases, there’s not a lot of psychology involved. Or is there? Some people will genuinely worry about the impact it will have on those left waiting, while others might secretly enjoy the power of their absence.

          The essential fact is that lateness means breaking a convention - you can only be late in respect of a time agreed with other people. Regardless of psychology, it has a social value. And when we treat other people’s time as less valuable than our own, we treat them as inferior

Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?

Câu 9:

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 front 43 to 50.

  Homeopathy, the alternative therapy created in 1796 by Samuel Hahnemann, and now widely used all over the world, is based on the belief that the body can be stimulated to heal itself. A central principle of the “treatment” is that “like cures like”, meaning a substance that causes certain symptoms can also help to remove those symptoms. Medicines used in homeopathy are created by heavily diluting in water the substance in question and subsequently shaking the liquid vigorously. They can then be made into tablets and pills. Practitioners believe that the more a substance is diluted in this way, the greater its power to treat symptoms.

  However, in a new study, a working committee of medical experts at Australia’s National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) has claimed that homeopathic medicines are only as effective as placebos at treating illness. Their research, involving the analysis of numerous reports from homeopathy interest groups and the public, concluded that there is no reliable evidence that homeopathy works. Moreover, researchers uncovered no fewer than 68 ailments that homeopathic remedies had failed to treat, including asthma, sleep disturbances, cold and flu, and arthritis.

  As a result of the findings, the NHMRC is urging health workers to inform their patients to be wary of anecdotal evidence that appears to support the effectiveness of homeopathic medicine. “It isn’t possible to tell whether a health treatment is effective or not simply by considering the experience of one individual or the beliefs of a health practitioner” says the report. Experts believe that most illnesses said to have been cured by homeopathy would be cured by the body on its own without taking the medicine. Apparently, many illnesses are short-lived by their very nature which often leads to people believing that it is the homeopathy that cures them.

          A more serious matter is highlighted by Professor John Dwyer of the University of New South Wales. As an immunologist, he is concerned about homeopathic vaccinations on offer for diseases such as HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria, none of which he considers effective. According to Professor John Dwyer, the concept that homeopathic vaccinations are just as good as traditional vaccinations is delusion, and those who believe it are failing to protect themselves and their children
