TELEVISION AND KIDS
Television is very popular and even has some benefits for kids. It helps very young children learn the letters of the alphabet, and helps other kids learn about science, cultures, and world events. 
However, researchers show that too much TV is bad for children. For one thing, there is a link between watching more than four hours of TV a day and being overweight. For another thing, many TV shows are violent and upsetting. Watching these shows may cause kids to be more fearful. And of course, more time in front of the TV means less time to study. Too much TV may also be the cause of lower grades. 
Experts do not agree on the solution to these problems. Some say that kids should watch only educational programs; others say kids should watch no TV at all. And others suggest teaching them to watch TV as occasional entertainment, not as an everyday hobby. 
Question 28: What is the passage mainly about? 
	A. Benefits of kids' TV shows 	B. Effects of television on kids
	C. Why kids love TV 	D. Why kids shouldn't watch TV 
Question 29: According to the passage, watching a lot of TV may________. 
	A. cause weight problems in children 	B. cause children to be more famous 
	C. cause children to get better grades 	D. cause students to study more 
Question 30: The word "them" in paragraph 3 refers to ________. 
	A. programs 	B. experts 	C. kids 	D. problems 
Question 31: The word "occasional" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to_______.
	A. very often 	B. not very often 	C. always 	D. everyday 
Question 32: What can be inferred from the passage? 
	A. TV is always bad for children. 
	B. TV is only good for entertainment.
	C. Kids should watch only educational shows.
	D. Television has some benefits along with problems.

These days, most people in Britain and the US do not wear very formal clothes. But sometimes it is important to wear the right thing.
Many British people don't think about clothes very much. They just like to be comfortable. When they go out to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost anything. At theatres, cinemas and concerts you can put on what you like from elegant suits and dresses to jeans and sweaters. Anything goes, as long as you look clean and tidy.But in Britain, as well as in the US, men in offices usually wear suits and ties, and women wear dresses or skirts (not trousers). Doctors, lawyers and business people wear quite formal clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants men have to wear ties and women wear smart dresses.
In many years, Americans are more relaxed than British people, but they are more careful with their clothes. At home, or on holiday, most Americans wear informal or sporty clothes. But when they go out in the evening, they like to look elegant. In good hotels and restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and women wear pretty clothes and smart hairstyles.
It is difficult to say exactly what people wear informal or formal in Britain and the US, because everyone is different. If you are not sure what to wear, watch what other people do and then do the same. You'll feel more relaxed if you don't look too different from everyone else.
Question 28: Many British people wear freely when they _______ .
	A. attend lectures 	B. attend meetings 	C. work in offices	D. spend their spare time 
Question 29: If you visit an American friend at home in the evening, you may find that your friend wears
	A. pretty clothes B. formal clothes C. dirty clothes D. informal clothes
Question 30: If you are in a foreign country, the best way the writer suggests to you is to wear
	A. strange clothes B. your native clothes C. as the people there do D. comfortable clothes
Question 31: The word “they” in paragraph 3 refers to _______ .
	A. American people B. British people C. men	 D. women
Question 32: What do you think the passage is mainly about ?
	A. Recent dressing habits in Great Britain and the United States.
	B. The reason why informal clothing is popular in the UK and USA.
	C. When we should wear in a formal way.
	D. Where we should wear in a informal way.

 English is one of the most popular languages in the world. It comes second in the number of speakers after Chinese. In Vietnam, more and more people are studying English and they consider it a key to success. However, not everyone knows how to learn English effectively.
 The best way to improve the four skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing is to practice regularly. You should make use of every opportunity to speak English with friends in class or at English speaking clubs or ourselves in front of the mirror. Learning by heart all the words does not help much if you do not read a lot because you will easily forget what you have learnt. Reading books, listening to radio and watching films are better ways to memorize words. Besides, English learners should not be so shy because making mistakes is unavoidable in learning foreign languages. Practicing speaking a lot is a good way to correct your mistakes.
