Part 5. Read the passage and answer the following questions by choosing A,B,C or D The search for alternative sources of energy has led in various directions. Many communities are burning garbage and other biological waste products to produce electricity. Converting waste products to gases or oil is also an efficient way to dispose of waste.

Experimental work is being done to derive synthetic fuels from coal, oil shale and coal tars. But to date, that process has proven expensive. Other experiments are underway to harness - power with giant windmills. Geothermal power, heat from the earth, is also being tested.

Some experts expect utility companies to revive hydroelectric power derived from streams and rivers. Fifty years ago hydroelectric power provided one third of the electricity used in the United States, but today it supplies only four percent. The oceans are another potential source of energy. Scientists are studying ways to convert the energy of ocean currents, tides, and waves to electricity. Experiments are also underway to make use of the temperature differences in ocean water to produce energy.

Part 5. Read the passage and choose A,B,C or D Benjamin Franklin Few people can embody the spirit of early America as much as Benjamin Franklin. He lived through almost the whole of the eighteenth century, being born six years after it began, and dying ten years before it ended. In this time he saw the American colonies grow from tiny settlements into a nation, and he also contributed much to the development of the new state.

At the age of 17 Franklin ran away to Philadelphia. He had already received some training as a printer‘s apprentice, and this helped him seven years later, with his first publication, the Pennsylvania Gazette. He also received a contract to do government printing work, which helped him to rise from his poor background to become a successful entrepreneur. Some of his experience in business was shared in his famous Poor Richard‘s Almanak, which established his reputation throughout the American colonies. In another of his works, the Autobiography, which was written toward the end of his life, he shows the same quiet common sense.

He was deeply interested in science and natural history, and his experiments with electricity and lightning led directly to the invention of the lightning rod. He was also interested in improving the conditions of his fellow men.

He was involved in a number of projects in his native Philadelphia, including the setting up of a library, a university, a philosophical society, and - because he was a pragmatic man - a fire prevention service. In 1753 he became Postmaster-General of the colonies.

Through this experience he began to develop the idea that the colonies of North America should be a single nation. Later, he went to London to try to persuade the British government to change the conditions, especially the taxes, that later led the American colonists into rebellion.

Whatever Benjamin Franklin‘s personal feelings about the rebellion of the American states, he worked hard to make it succeed. As ambassador to France, he encouraged the French to help George Washington. After the war he attended the American constitutional congress. This was his last contribution, for he died later that year. He is still fondly remembered by Americans as one of the creators of the United States.

1. What is a good description for this text?

A. An autobiography of Benjamin Franklin.

B. The life of Benjamin Franklin C. The works of Benjamin Franklin.

D. Franklin and American Independence.

2. When was Benjamin Franklin born?

A. 1806 B. 1794 C. 1717 D. 1706 3. Which of these happened first?

B. Franklin runs away to Philadelphia.

C. The American colonies rebel.

D. Franklin starts his first publication.

4. What was Poor Richard’s Almanak about?

A. Franklin‘s reputation.

B. How to succeed in business.

C. How to do government printing.

Part 5. Read the passage and answer the following questions by choosing A,B,C or D After inventing dynamite, Swedish-born Alfred Nobel became a very rich man. However, he foresaw its universally destructive powers too late. Nobel preferred not to be remembered as the inventor of dynamite, so in 1895, just two weeks before his death, he created a fund to be used for awarding prizes to people who had made worthwhile contributions to mankind. Originally there were five awards: literature, physics, chemistry, medicine and peace. Economics was added in 1968, just sixty-seven years after the first awards ceremony. Nobel's original legacy of nine million dollars was invested, and the interest on this sum is used for the awards which vary from $30,000 to $125,000.

Every year on December 10, the anniversary of Nobel's death, the awards (gold medal, illuminated diploma, and money) are presented to the winners. Sometimes politics plays an important role in the judges' decisions. Americans have won numerous science awards, but relatively few literature prizes. No awards were presented from 1940 to 1942 at the beginning of World War II. Some people have won two prizes, but this is rare; others have shared their prizes.

Part 5. Read the passage and answer the following questions by choosing A, B, C or D It is very important to have healthy teeth. Good teeth help us to chew our food. They also help us to look nice. How does a tooth go bad? The decay begins in a little crack in the enamel covering of the tooth. This happens after germs and bits of food have collected there. Then the decay slowly spreads inside the tooth. Eventually, poison goes into blood, and we may feel quite ill.

How can we keep our teeth healthy? Firstly, we ought to visit our dentist twice a year. He can fill the small holes in our teeth before they destroy the teeth. He can examine our teeth to check that they are growing in the right way.

Unfortunately, many people wait until they have toothache before they see a dentist.

Secondly, we should brush our teeth with a toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste at least twice a day-once after breakfast and once before we go to bed. We can also use wooden toothpicks to clean between our teeth after a meal.

Thirdly, we should eat food that is good for our teeth and our body: milk, cheese, fish, brown bread, potatoes, red rice, raw vegetables and fresh fruit. Chocolate, sweets, biscuits and cakes are bad, especially when we eat them between meals. They are harmful because they stick to our teeth and cause decay.

1. Good teeth help us to ................

A. be nice B. have a good eyesight.

C. chew our food D. be important 2. When food and germs collect in a small crack, our teeth ............

A. become hard B. begin to decay.

Part 5. Read the passage and answer the following questions by choosing A,B,C or D Have you ever heard someone use the phrase “once in a blue moon”? People use this expression to describe something that they do not do very often. For example, someone might say that he tries to avoid eating sweets because they are unhealthy, but will eat chocolate “once in a blue moon”. Or someone who doesn’t usually like to go to the beach might say “I visit the shore once in a blue moon.” While many people use this phrase, not everyone knows the meaning behind it. The first thing to know that the moon itself is never actually blue. This is just an expression. The phrase “blue moon” actually has to do with the shape of the moon, not the color. As the moon travels around the Earth, it appears to change shape. We associate certain names with certain shapes of the moon.

For example, when we can see a small part of the moon, it is called a crescent moon. A crescent is a shape that looks like a tip of a fingernail. When we cannot see the moon at all, it is called a new moon. When we can see the entire moon, it is called a full moon. Usually, there is only one full moon every month. Sometimes, however, there will be two full moons in one month. When this happens, the second full moon is called a “blue moon”. Over the next 20 years, there will only be 15 blue moons. As you can see, a blue moon is a very rare event. This fact has led people to use the expression “once in a blue moon” to describe other very rare events in their lives.

1. Which would be a good example of someone doing something “once in a blue moon”?

A. Mary likes to go to the mountains every weekend.

B. Tom rarely remembers to take out the trash.

C. Cindy hates washing the dishes.

D. Mary sometimes forgets to do homework.

2. When does a blue moon happen in nature?

A. When there are two full moons in a month.

B. When the moon has blue color.

C. When we can only see a small part of the moon.

D. When we cannot see the moon at all.

3. According to the passage, it can be understood that which of the following sentences does not contain the expression?

A. Thomas has lost his mind B. An apple a day keeps the doctor away C. I‘ll mow the grass after I finish my homework.

D. It‘s never bad time to start something new 4. According to the passage, what is another example of something that has crescent shape?

A. your thumb B. a distant star C. the letter “C” D. the letter “H” 5. The author states that “Over the next 20 years, there will only be 15 blue moons.” This means that: over the next 20 year, a blue moon will happen ……

A. once a year B. less than once a year C. more than once a year D. Not enough information is provided Part 6 .Rewrite each sentence so that the meaning stays the same.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D Did you know that on average we forget about 80% of the medical information a doctor might give us? This fascinating information came to light as a result of a study carried out by Utrecht University. What is even more interesting is that almost half of what we think we remember is wrong.

Why do you think this is? Well, it‘s not as complicated as you may think. You see, going to the doctor fills most people with anxiety and when we are really nervous and stressed we are more likely to focus on the diagnosis rather than the treatment. Therefore, we know what is wrong with as but have no idea what to do about it.

Here are some good tips to keep in mind when seeing a doctor. Always write down any important information. What would be even better is, if your doctor agreed, to record your consultation. This way, you can replay the advice at home, where you are more likely to absorb it. If you believe the situation is serious or you‘re really worried, seek the help of a family member. Just ask them to accompany you to listen in. This way you can be absolutely sure about what the doctor has told you and avoid falling into the same trap that most people do. (Source: Traveler 6) 1.

“Sesame Street” has been called “the longest street in the world”. That is because the television program can be seen in so many parts of the world.

That program became one of America‘s exports soon after it was shown in New York in 1969.

In the United States more than six million children watch the program regularly. Although some people do not agree to some parts of the program, parents praise it highly.

Tests have shown that children have learned much from watching “Sesame Street”. The children who watch it five times a week learn more than those who watch it less. In the United States the program is shown at different hours during the week in order to increase the number of children who can watch it regularly.

The program uses songs, stories, jokes and pictures to give children a basic understanding of numbers, letters and human relationships.

Why has “Sesame Street” been so much more successful than other children’s shows? Many reasons have been suggested, such as the educational theories of its producers, the support from both the government and businessmen, and the full use of various kinds of television skills. Perhaps another important reason is that mothers watch “Sesame Street” together with their children. This is partly because famous film stars often appear on “Sesame Street”. But the best reason for the success of the program may be that it makes every child watching it feel able to learn. The child finds himself learning, and he wants to learn more.

SIMPLE WAYS TO LOSE WEIGHT ON A BUDGET Plan to Cook at Home :Instead of buying costly prepared meals, which often tend to be high in calories, cook your own at home. Plan out our meals with high-fiber foods like beans and whole grains which will keep you full and are a cheaper, healthier alternative to rich proteins and more processed grains.

Eat Less:Eating less leads to weight loss, and cost savings, especially if you cut down on the right things. Start by cutting your portions of spicy meat and poultry. Or swap out meat and poultry for cheaper vegetarian proteins like beans, lentils, tofu and eggs for some of your meals.

Double Up on Vegetables: Vegetables are great for weight loss, as well as all-around health. They are low in calories and high in water and fiber - two things that keep you feeling full. Save cash by shopping for those that are in season. Frozen vegetables can be a great bargain, with just as much nutrition as fresh, since they are picked and frozen at their peak ripeness.

Get Creative with Your Exercise Options: You don‘t need to shell out a monthly gym fee to get moving.

Instead, find fun activities you enjoy for free. If you‘re just getting started with a regular exercise routine, try your beginning with daily walks: start slowly and build up time and speed.

Make Friends with Someone: One of the most powerful resources you have for helping you lose weight is your social network. Find a friend who is also trying to lose weight and agree to help each other stay motivated. One study found that when friends participated in a group weight-loss programme together, they lost more weight than people who did the same programme on their own.

TAKING A WORKING HOLIDAY One of the more difficult things young people face when they want to travel is the lack of funds. During summer holidays and possibly at weekends, they are able to take on part-time jobs, but the money they make is just a drop in the bucket of what they need to travel far away. For example, traveling to Australia from Vietnam can be quite expensive just for an airline ticket, and to a lot of students wanting to travel, it can seem out of reach.

For students wanting to travel to Australia and New Zealand in particular, however, they are in luck. Although many countries offer working holidays, these two countries are well-known for offering them. When a young person signs up to get a working holiday visa, he only pays for the round-trip airfare to get to either place and only needs to carry some extra cash for incidentals. Once he is there, a job awaits where he can earn some money.

Many of the jobs require little or no experience, such as picking fruit or working in a busy pub out in the countryside. Some of the jobs require more experience that most people are unlikely to have, such as being a certified welder to work for eight weeks on a farm. That shouldn‘t discourage you, though, because there is always something to be found if you search hard enough.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D Have you ever noticed advertisements which say “Learn a foreign language in 6 weeks, or your money back.

From the first day your pronunciation will be excellent. Just send...” and so on? Of course, it never happens quite like that. One‘s mother language is easier to learn, but it also requires a lot of practice to be fluent. And think how much practice that gets! Before the Second World War, people usually learned a foreign language in order to read the literature of the country.

Now speaking a foreign language is what most people want. Every year many millions of people start learning one. How do they do it? Some people try it at home, with books and records of tapes; some use radio or television programmes; some use computers and network; others go to evening classes. If they use the language only 2 or 3 times a week, it will take a long time, like learning a foreign language at school. A few people try to learn the language fast by studying for 6 or more hours a day. It is clearly easier to learn the language in the country where it is spoken. However, most people cannot afford this, and for many it is not necessary. They need the language in order to do their work better. For example, scientists and doctors chiefly need to be able to read books and reports in the foreign language. Whether the language is learned quickly or slowly, it is hard work. Machines and good books will help, but they cannot do the student’s work for him.

1. According to some advertisements, you _______.

A. have to pay your money if you cannot master a foreign language in 6 weeks B. needn‘t pay your money if you cannot learn a foreign language in 6 weeks C. must pay your money if you cannot master a foreign language in 6 weeks

Humans have a long history of eating insects, and it turns out that they can be a very nutritious part of a person‘s regular diet. Insects have a lot of protein, and they are often easier to catch than prey animals. Therefore, it is no wonder that when our ancient ancestors saw some tasty worms or grubs wiggling on the ground, they made a quick snack of them.

In Thailand, insects are a regular part of the street food that can be found. The different insects that people snack on are crickets, grasshoppers, giant water bugs, and assorted worms. They are often deep-fried and salted, so they have a crunchy texture that makes them a perfect snack food. If you can get past the fact that you are eating a cricket, it will crunch in your mouth just like a corn chip!

For a lot of people, however, it is difficult to get over the fear of eating insects. People tend to see insects as invaders, especially when they are crawling on the food that we are about to eat.

Therefore, being able to eat insects without feeling disgusted is cultural. Some people cannot eat French cheese or stinky tofu because they weren‘t brought up doing so. To many of us, insects fall right into that category, making it difficult to even try them.

If given the chance, though, be courageous. Insects can be nutritious and tasty, so long as you can get over the “yuck” factor.

1. Which is the reason given for gathering and eating insects?

A. They are very easy to find close to the home.

My first piece of advice to people who want to start getting fit is don‘t buy an exercise bike.

Typically, people who buy them use them for a week or so and then forget about them. They are effective if they are used regularly but you need to be determined. Most people will find it much easier to go for a gentle jog around the park.

As well as being easy to do, jogging is also relatively cheap compared to most other sports. You don‘t nee d to buy expensive clothes if you‘re just going running around the park or on the beach.

The main thing is that they‘re comfortable, and that they keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. There is one piece of equipment, however, that you will have to spend time and money on, and that‘s your running shoes. Remember that you are not looking for a fashion item, but for something that will support your feet and protect you from injury. They can be expensive, but if they are good quality they will last you a long time. It‘s always best to get expert advice, and the best place for that is a sports shop.

As for the actual jogging, the secret is to start gently, and not to do too much at the beginning – especially if you haven‘t had any exercise for a long time. Try a mixture of walking and running for ten minutes about three times a week at first. Once you are happy doing that you can then start to increase the amount you do gradually. After a few months you should hope to be able to run at a reasonable speed for twenty minutes three or four times a week.

It‘s important that you feel comfortable with whatever you do. If you do, you‘ll start to enjoy it and will probably keep doing it.

If it makes you feel uncomfortable, you‘ll probably stop after a short time and return to your bad habits. In any case, training too hard is not very effective. Research has shown that somebody who exercise for twice as long or twice as hard as another person doesn‘t automatically become twice as fit. (Source: Solutions intermediate students’ book) 1.

Read the passage and choose the best answer Many people like to keep pets. Dogs and cats are very popular pets. Some people, however, keep birds or goldfish. They need less space and are easier to look after.

If you want to have a pet, you can buy one from a pet shop but you must be careful not to buy a sick animal.

It is best if you know something about the pet you want. This helps you choose a healthy pet.However, if you do not have much money and know very little about animals, you can visit the Royal Society for th e Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA).

The first society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was founded in England in 1821. It was set up to make sure that all animals are treated with kindness. The RSPCA in Hong Kong carries out this aim. The RSPCA officers collect animals which have no homes and are left in the street. They look after them until they are healthy again. People visiting the RSPCA may choose their pets from these animals and you can be sure that you will get a healthy pet. If later your pet becomes ill, you can take it to the doctors at the RSPCA for treatment.

When you have a pet, it is very important that you look after it properly. You must remember to feed it at suitable times. You should also give it a clean and comfortable place to rest. Your pet will be happy and healthy if you love it and care for it properly.

1. According to the passage, what kind of pet needs more space?

A. A dog B. A bird C. A goldfish D. A mouse 2. What can help you choose a healthy pet?

A. Being careful with your money C. Having a lot of money B. Learning about a pet you want D. Visiting many pet shops 3. The first society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was founded_________.

Read the passage and choose the best answer A pilot cannot fly by sight alone. In many conditions, such as flying at night and landing in dense fog, a pilot must use radar, an alternative way of navigating. Since human eyes are not very good at determining speeds of approaching objects, radar can show a pilot how fast nearby planes are moving. The basic principle of radar is exemplified by what happens when one shouts in a cave. The echo of the sounds against the walls helps a person determine the size of the cave. With radar, however, the waves are radio waves instead of sound waves. Radio waves travel at the speed of light, about 300,000 kilometers in one second. A radar set sends out a short burst of radio waves. Then it receives the echoes produced when the waves bounce off objects. By determining the time it takes for the echoes to return to the radar set, a trained technician can determine the distance between the radar set and other objects. The word “radar”,in fact, gets its name from the term “radio detection and ranging”. “Ranging” is the term for detection of the distance between an object and the radar set. Besides being of critical importance to pilots, radar is essential for air traffic control, tracking ships at sea, and for tracking weather systems and storms.

51. What is the main topic of this passage?

A. The nature of radar. B. History of radar. C. Alternatives to radar. D. Types of ranging.

52. According to the passage, what can radar detect besides location of objects?

A. Shape B. Size C. Speed D. Weight 53. The word “exemplified” in the passage can be replaced by_________.

A. “specified” B. “resembled” C. “illustrated” D. “justified” 54. The word “shouts” in the passage most closely means_________.

After inventing dynamite, Swedish-born Alfred Nobel became a very rich man. However, he foresaw its universally destructive powers too late. Nobel preferred not to be remembered as the inventor of dynamite, so in 1895, just two weeks before his death, he created a fund to be used for awarding prizes to people who had made worthwhile contributions to mankind. Originally there were five awards: literature, physics, chemistry, medicine and peace.

Economics was added in 1968, just sixty-seven years after the first awards ceremony.

Nobel's original legacy of nine million dollars was invested, and the interest on this sum is used for the awards which vary from $30,000 to $125,000.

Every year on December 10th , the anniversary of Nobel's death, the awards (gold medal, illuminated diploma, and money) are presented to the winners. Sometimes politics plays an important role in the judges' decisions. Americans have won numerous science awards, but relatively few literature prizes. No awards were presented from 1940 to 1942 at the beginning of World War II . Some people have won two prizes, but this is rare; others have shared their prizes.

17. Why was the Nobel prize established?

A. To recognise worthwhile contributions to humanity.

B. To resolve political differences.

C. To honour the inventor of dynamite.

D. To spend money.

18. In which area have Americans received the most awards?

A. Literature B. Peace C. Economics D. Science 19. Which of the following statements is not true?

B. Ceremonies are held on December 10 to commemorate Nobel's invention.

They called New York “the Big Apple”. Maybe it is not exactly like an apple, it’s certainly very big. There are too many people, that’s the problem. The streets are always full of cars and trucks, you can never find a place to park.

If you have enough money, you can take a taxi. New York cabs are yellow. They look all the same. But the drivers are very different. Some were born and raised in New York, but many are newcomers to the United States. A few drive slowly, but most go very fast. Cab driving is a difficult job. It can be dangerous, too. Thieves often try to steal the drivers‘ money. Drivers sometimes get hurt.

If you don‘t want to take a taxi, you can go by bus or you can take the subway. The subway is quick and it‘s cheap, but parts of it are old and dirty. Lights don’t always work and there is often fire on the track. On some subway lines, there are new, clean, silver trains. But you can‘t see the color of the old trains easily.

A B C D Read the passage and answer the questions ( 5 pts) Computing is now at the same stage as printing was when the first printing presses were used.

Before printing presses were invented, only rich people like kings and dukes could afford to buy books. Often these people were unable to read and hadn‘t enough time to learn. In any case, the books were so big that it was difficult for anyone to relax with a book as we do today. They wanted booked because they were expensive and there was something magical about them.

Only a few people were able to write, and it took an extremely long time to write a book. Monks and other people who could write said ordinary people could not learn to read.

The position with computers is very similar today. A few years ago, computers were very large and expensive.

Business managers and rich people ordered them but they didn‘t know how to use them. In many countries, however, the situation has now completely changed. Lots of people not only own microcomputer but also know how to use them.

When someone gets a burn , it‘s necessary to provide first - aid right away. First aid for burns involves removing the source of the burn as soon as possible. The burns should be cooled immediately with cold water. A clean, cold wet towel or dressing can be placed on less serious burns to ease pain and protect the burns from contaminating. If the burn is caused by chemicals, it should be bathed continuously with running water for at least 20 minutes to reduce the substance. Any powder should be carefully brushed off with gloved or protected hands before washing. Wet dressings should never be used for burns. Instead, the first - aid provider should gently apply dry, sterile dressing held in place by bandages and seek immediate medical attention. * Question: 21.

A B C D Read the passage and answer the questions ( 5 pts) Many people who work in London prefer to live outside of it, and go to their offices, factories or schools everyday by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up earlier in the morning and come home later in the evening. One advantage of living outside of London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same amount of money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one‘s own. Then, in the country one can rest from the noise and hurry of the town. Although one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night, and during weekends. In summer evenings one enjoys the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one‘s free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden.

• Phần thân: In Nha Trang, natural beauties are so tempting. Waves crash onto the cliffs. There are the soft sigh of the sea breeze; clean white sands and turquoise waters. I used to get up early each morning to stroll along the beach – a chance to breathe in the fresh sea air and enjoy the sunrise across the water. One attraction that captivated me three years ago and still does is the collection of small offshore islands. Hon Tre is the largest of the islands, and Monkey island is, as the name suggests, the home of hundreds of wild monkeys.

Phần kết: Nha Trang is the city in harmony: its fine weather, favorite position and friendly people bring it a certain balance. Nha Trang is a great holiday destination. I hope to have a chance to come back.

Bài tham khảo 1: There are 4 seasons in a year in Ha Noi: spring, summer, autumn and winter. However, from my personal perspective, a season which has a special weather type is spring.

Spring makes people feel the most comfortable. It is fine and dull, the wind is so gentle that it glides by my cheek. It‘s the season that is warmer than the winter and cooler than the summer. The trees look lively with many green leaves and young buds. Everybody sends the best wishes to people that we love in the new year, and at the same time, many festivals are held. However, this season usually brings water drizzles, so the road is often dirty and the air in our houses is wet.

Now that the weather is starting to get colder, we can be lazier. ĐỀ ÔN THI THCS NGOẠI NGỮ ĐỀ SỐ 4 Part 1.

Bài làm mẫu: Water shortage is a big concern for many countries around the world. Without water, people could only live a few days before having serious health problems or even death.

Many people believe that the use of water should be restricted in some way. The high rate of populations around the world where fresh water is already severely scarce might lead governments to the firm decision that they should impose restrictions on how water should be used and how much of it each person should be permitted to use.

Whilst I can see that this resolution from government has a certain logic, I think that strict controls are not the final answer. This severe problem need to be resolved by different ways. This can be done by building more desalination plants. Another solution is to protect existing water supplies like underground supplies and take steps to prevent them becoming polluted. Also, recycled water could be used for irrigating farms.

In conclusion, I believe that governments should ensure that all citizens have sufficient access to fresh water and price it. Besides, all citizens should have full responsibility of protecting the supply of fresh water.

Sample: I was born in a quiet village where the influence of the city is not much. It is a small village with a population of about two thousand people. It is a very good place for relaxation indeed.

In my village, people live very close to each another. They are very simple in thought and behavior. Therefore, they are friendly and helpful. Besides, the crimes of the city are almost unknown in my village. People work together and live in peace. I love them all. My village is surrounded by paddyfields and a river. All of these add great beauty and variety to my village scene. Although I do not like growing rice, I really like the fields. It gives me a good, peaceful and relaxed mood.

Now I am living in Hanoi capital. I usually want to come back to my hometown very much.

Living among such friendly and simple people, in such a quiet village, is indeed a real pleasure. ĐỀ ÔN THI THCS NGOẠI NGỮ ĐỀ SỐ 8 Part 1.

Sample: If someone asks me ―What is your favorite color?ǁ then this is my answer: Blue is my favorite color. I love blue for the following reasons.

First of all, blue is the color that represents both sides of human emotion. People are able to share their emotions through the color blue for both happy and sad times. Blue is the color that refreshes the mind.

Besides, blue is the color of the sky. Like the color of the sky, you can find several shades of blue throughout the day. Right now when I am staring out my window, the horizon is almost whitewashed blue and as I look up, the colors deepen to an oceanic blue.

When blue is used as the backdrop it makes flowers explode, especially orange and yellow flowers. Blue is also one of the colors found in people‘s eyes. To me, people with blue eyes are reliable.

It is not that there are no other colors that I favor but when the question is asked, this is a few of my reasons for blue.

Sample: My favorite comic book is ―Doraemonǁ by Fujiko Fujio, the series about the cat from the future into the past. Doremon meets and helps Nobita in the security context miracle. The main character is Doremon with the group of friends: Nobita, Shizuka, Xeko, Chaien. As an extremely interesting story, it engages the reader with the hilarious, witty, and full of magic actions. But it is also kind of suspense with the risky adventures of the group. The series is divided into two categories: short stories and long ones. I enjoyed the long stories, which are about the adventures in a strange land or through time. They are not only exciting but also dangerous, and the group must go through many difficulties, from which we saw noble friendship between a bunch of kids. When I read the story, I kept imagining myself as the character in that book that I could not put down. And I learned a lot from it, especially friendships!

My father hired a car to go because going by car was both faster and more comfortable. Two hours later, we arrived in Ha Noi Capital. The thing that surprised me was that there were too people and too much traffic on the streets.

Firstly, the driver took us to the zoo where there were many animals, birds, fish and hippos, monkeys. It was interesting to look at monkeys eating bananas. Then we went to Thu Le Park where there were lots of animals. It was comfortable to go for a walk there. After that we went to visit Ho Chi Minh's Mausoleum .While I was looking at interesting furniture in that building, my father said that it was time to go home. We hurried to return to the parking lot. The driver took us back home. I arrived home at 6:00 p.m. I felt happy and enjoyed that trip very much. I hope I will have a chance to go Ha Noi Capital again in the next summers.

4.3 Every year, whenever summer comes, I usually have a visit to somewhere. Last summer was not an exception. Last summer, my class held a visit to Ngu Hiep village on Sunday. On that day I got up very early. We went there by bike. When we were riding on the road, we saw many tall trees, beautiful houses, and people. What a lovely sight! It took me about 20 minutes to go there. Before reaching Ngu Hiep village, I had a chance to sit on the ferry crossing Tien river. The water in the river was very clean and crystal. When reaching I felt comfortable. The air was fresh and cool. There were a lot of fruits such as grapes, plums, mangoes, and so on. Grapes are especially very delicious in Ngu Hiep villages. Then my friend, Lan, took us to her uncle‘s house and we had lunch there. We also went for a walk around.

The sights were wonderful. People were very friendly and hospitable. Finally it was time for us to go home. We came home at about 5:00 P.M. I felt happy and enjoyed that trip very much. I hope I will have a chance to come back there again next year. ĐỀ ÔN THI THPT CHUYÊN HÀ NỘI- AMSTERDAM ĐỀ SỐ 03

4.3 Whenever we have free time, my class holds a picnic. Last Sunday I and my classmates had a picnic at my friend‘s house, Lan, in the countryside. It was a fine day last Sunday. We went to Lan‘s house by bike. There were five members. We started to go at 5:00 o‘clock in the morning. It took us about an hour and a half to go to her house. When we arrived, Lan prepared everything carefully. Her parents were very happy when we came. I was surprised that there was a lot of food on the table. I asked Lan who made and she answered her mother did. After having breakfast, we played games like “What song is it?” and “blind man’s bluff”. Then we went fishing on the river behind Lan‘s house and went for a walk around. At noon we had lunch in the garden with bread, soft drink, snack and lots of kinds of fruits. We continued to enjoy our picnic till the evening. At 6:30 PM we hurriedly gathered things to go home. I enjoyed that picnic very much. It was short, however, it helped me relax after a hard working week and know more about people and places of our country. ĐỀ ÔN THI THPT CHUYÊN HÀ NỘI- AMSTERDAM ĐỀ SỐ 04

With its dramatic landscapes, fascinating history, epic food, and pulsating energy, Vietnam will electrify all of your senses and seize you from all angles.

Vietnam is at once crazy and serene, thrilling and relaxing.

There are endless reason to hop on a flight to Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City and travel down and up this amazing country by train, plane, bus or the preferred method of transport- motorbike. If you need persuading, here are several reasons to fall head over heels in love with Vietnam: - Street food The best place to eat in Vietnam is on little, plastic stools on the sidewalk. Whether it is noodle soups, like the iconic pho or bun ca (fish and pork-based garnished with dill) or bun cha- grilled pork served over rice noodles with herbs and dipping sauce- the street food in Vietnam is nothing sort of amazing. At any hour of the day, you will find Vietnamese people of all ages congregating under market awnings or outside store fronts, chowing down and enjoying each other’s company. Eating on the street is by far the most exciting- and accessible- way to truly experience daily life in Vietnam, and it is also where you will find the best food - Coffee As the second biggest producer of coffee in the world, Vietnam knows a thing or two about coffee. Most importantly, coffee comes with sweetened condensed milk (aka the best stuff on Earth) pretty much without exception. It is also integral part of the culture, served in cafes and drumroll on the street, of course.

- Caves Mammoth caves that hold entire jungles and lakes are still being discovered in Vietnam. Son Doong Cave, the biggest cave in the world, was only the first explored in 2009, and didn’t open to tourists until 2012. Trips into Son Doong are still highly controlled, expensive and limited, but there is a vast network of caves that are much more accessible. Paradise Cave in Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park is 19 miles across and offers a variety of tours into its interior, including an easy walk on the boardwalk at the beginning of the cave and a trek past the boardwalk for the more adventurous. Headlamps and nerve are required. Visit before the sights become overrun with tourists.

- Ha Long Bay Speaking of vitas, Ha Long Bay, the UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Gulf of Tonkin, is every bit as spectacular as people say. It is worth the roughly four hour drive from Hanoi, and it is worth fighting the swarms of tourists to see. The bay used to be littered with a lot more trash, but with recent clean-up efforts, it is much better these days.

The 1,600 islands jut out of the sea, seemingly one on top of the other, creating a dramatic scape of mountains, sea and sky.

- The people Kind, thoughtful, industrious, optimistic, generous- the people are the heart of country, and if you visit, you should take every opportunity to get to know them 17.

Quokkas are native to West Australia and are found mainly on Rottnest Island and Bald Island. Because of habitat destruction due to all that we label as “development”, quokkas are now considered vulnerable to extinction. They also face threats from foxes, cats and wildfires.

Despite their “vulnerable” status, this cute animal isn’t scared of humans. There was a selfie frenzy a few years ago featuring quokkas. And they happily obliged the tourists.

Conservationists have since issued guidelines- hugging and feeding quokkas is a punishable offense. This is because what we tourists may commonly tale to be a safe food for these critters may lead to teeth/ gum infections or premature death in them.

- These magnificent mammals are omnivores. But while pandas will occasionally eat small animals and fish, bamboo accounts, bamboo accounts for 99 percent of their diet.

Female pandas give birth to one or two cubs every two years. Cubs stay with their mother for 18 months before venturing off on their own.

- Unlike most other bears, panda do not hibernate. When winter approaches, they head lower down their mountain homes to warmer temperature, where they continue to chomp away on bamboo - Sadly, these beautiful bears are endangered, and it is estimated that only around 1,000 remain in the wild.

In 2008, while out on another food gathering trip, Ho Khanh found the mysterious opening again and studiously took note of the path on how to get there. In 2009, he led Howard, Deb and a team of professional back to the cave for the first expedition to enter what would later become known as Hang Son Doong, or “Mountain River Cave” Ho Khanh is still an integral part of every Son Doong Expedition, if he is not guiding groups, he is back in town organizing and leading the safety response group.

Don’t worry about it. You’ll get better soon Question 17-20: Read and choose the correct answer CLIMATE CHANGE Climate change (or global warming) is the process of our planet heating up. Earth has warmed by an average of 10C in the last century, and although that might not sound like much, it means big things for people and wildlife around the globe. Unfortunately, rising temperature don’t just mean that we’ll get nicer weather- if only! The changing climate will actually make our weather more extreme and unpredictable.

As temperature rise, some areas will get wetter and lots of animals (and humans) could find they are not able to adapt to their changing climate. What cause climate change?

1. Burning fossil fuels Over the past 150 years, industrialized countries have been burning large amounts of fossil fuels such as oil and gas.

The gases released into the atmosphere during this process act like an invisible “blanket”, trapping heat from the sun and warming Earth. This is known as the “greenhouse effect” 2. Farming Believe or not, cow’s eating habits contribute towards greenhouse gases. Just like us, when cows eat, methane gas builds up their digestive system and is released in the form of a fart! This might sound funny, but when you imagine that there are about 1.5 billion cows releasing all that gas into the atmosphere, it sure adds up!

3. Deforestation Forest absorb huge amounts of carbon dioxide- a greenhouse gas- from the air, and release oxygen back into it. The Amazon rainforest is so large and efficient at doing this that it is often called “the lungs of the earth”. Sadly, many rainforests are being cut down to make wood and palm oil, and to clear the way for farmland, roads, oil mines and dams.

How will climate change affect the planet?

Earth has had many tropical climates and ice ages over the billions of years that it has been in existence, so why is now so different? Well, this is because for the last 150 years, human activity has meant we are releasing a huge amount of harmful gases into Earth’s atmosphere, and records show that global temperatures are rising more rapidly since this time 17.

The blast threw her out of the window and although she survived, she and her mother were caught in the nuclear fallout. Her grandmother went back to the house to get something and was never seen again.

Years went by and Sadako led to a normal childhood up until November 1954, when aged 11, she was diagnosed with leukemia and told that she only had a year to live. Leukemia was highly prevalent at that time along with several other cancers, and it became evident that this was largely due to the effects of the bombing nine years before In the hospital, Sadako’s roommate told her of an old Japanese legend, which says that of you fold 1000 paper cranes, you will be granted one wish from the gods.

Some versions of the story say that Sadako made 644 origami cranes before dying peacefully in her sleep, and her friends made the remaining 356 in her honor. However, an exhibit at the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum said she had achieved her goal in August 1955 and continued to fold more cranes right up until her death.

Either way, Sadako Sasaki’s condition sadly continued to deteriorate and she died on October 25th 1995 at the age of 12. She was buried with all 1000 paper cranes.

Following Sadako’s death, her friends and schoolmates raised funds to build a memorial to her and all the other children who had died as a result of the atomic bomb. Statues of Sadako holding cranes can be found in both Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park and Seattle Peace Park, the former of which bears the following words: “This is our cry. This is our prayer. Peace in the world”.

The story of Sadako Sasaki and the thousand paper cranes has become known internationally as a reminder of the effects of war on the innocent. It is told in many schools on the anniversary of the effects of war on the innocent. It is told in many schools on the anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing and people all over Japan celebrate August 6th as an annual peace day.

Everyday, children bring origami cranes to Sadako’s statue in memory of her and all the other innocent children who have died as a result of war. The crane has long been a symbol of hope and longevity, but in Sadako’s memory, it has also become as a symbol of peace.

Many of these structures have been destroyed, but a few remain. Over time, people developed a list of some of the most fantastic man-made structure in the ancient world. This list all about the seven wonders of the ancient world include the following: The Great Pyramid of Egypt: The Great Pyramid of Egypt was originally 480 feet high. It remained the tallest building in the world for over 4,000 years. Built around 2560 BC, it was created as a burial place for the Egyptian pharaoh Khufu. Researchers believe it took about 20 years to build and as many as 360,000 men worked on it. The Great Pyramid is the largest of three pyramid in Giza, which is now part of Cairo. Of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the Great Pyramid is the only one still standing.

The Hanging Gardens in Babylon. Imagine a great garden built on tiers supported by pillars- a garden in the sky.

Although some researchers questions whether the gardens actually existed, they would have been a marvelous sight if real. The Hanging Garden of Babylon are said to have been built by King Nebuchadnezzar II around 600 B.C. Legend has is that the gardens were destroyed by an earthquake around 100 B.C. The site where the gardens would have been is in Al-Hillah, Iraq Temple of Artemis at Ephesus. In modern Turkey once sat a large temple built for Artemis, the Goddess of the hunt. Built in about 550 B.C, the Temple was three times the size of the Parthenon with 127 60 foot-high columns.

The temple was made of marble. It was destroyed by fire in 356 B.C The Statue of Zeus. Remember the large statue of Zeus in the Disney movie, Hercules? This statue really existed.

Built in Olympia, Greece in 450 B.C, the statue was 40 feet tall, Zeus was seated on a wooden throne lined with jewels. In one hand, he held a statue of Nike- the goddess of victory. In the other hand, he held a scepter with an eagle on top. Scholars are not sure how it was destroyed, but they believe it was destroyed in the 5th century The Tomb of Maussollos at Halicarnassus. Queen Artemisia was filled with sadness after her husband, Mausolus, King of Carnia of Asia Minor died in 353 B.C. She hired two Greek architects to build a huge tomb made of marble for her husband. The tomb sat on a hill outside the city and was made of marble. It had many statues around it and was over 135 feet tall. The word “mausoleum” which means any building built as a tomb for the dead, comes from King Maussollos. The tomb was destroyed by earthquakes in the 14th century Colossus at Rhodes. Standing over 100 feet tall, the Colossus at Rhodes was a huge statue of Helios, the patron god of the island. The people defended their island from an invasion in 304 B.C and built the statue in celebration, 43

although an earthquake destroyed it only 59 years later. The statue was placed at the entrance to the island for all to see- similar to the Statue of Liberty, which sits on Liberty Island in the New York Harbor. The Statue of Liberty if 305 feet tall The Lighthouse of Alexandria. Build around 270 B.C, the Lighthouse of Alexandria sat on a small island of Pharos, near the city of Alexandria in Egypt. The role of the lighthouse was to guide boats safely along the Nile River and in and out of the harbor around Alexandria. The lighthouse was probably about 380 feet tall. It was made of light colored stone so it could be easily seen during the day. A mirror at the top of the lighthouse reflected sunlight while fires guarded sailors at night. It was slowly destroyed by earthquakes and some of its remains have been discovered in the Nile River. Archeologists have also found coins with pictures of the lighthouse.

This name is related to the famous historical legend of King Le Thai To. And before this legend, Hoan Kiem Lake used to be called Luc Thuy Lake (or Green Water Lake) since the water was green all year round. In the 15th century, it was renamed Hoan Kiem Lake after the legend of Emperor Ly Thai To. The legend is really interesting. Close your eyes and turn back time to the Le Dynasty six centuries ago to witness the legendary story. During the war against the Minh aggressors, King Le Thai To was given a precious fairy sword by the Golden Turtle God. After ten years of continuous struggling, the king finally defeated the Chinese and reclaimed the nation’s independence. After that, on a nice day, while boating on Luc Thuy lake, a large turtle came towards him.

It immediately grabbed the sword with its mouth and submerged. The king mourned the loss of such valuable sword, yet could not find either the turtle or the sword. He realized that the god must have lent him the sword to drive back the enemy, but now that his nation was free, the sword must be returned. Hence, King Ly Thai To renamed the lake Ho Hoan Kiem or Lake or the Restored Sword after this episode.

We usually say that Earth is the common home of all species. However, have you ever wondered how many species there are in the world? It is certain that there is no absolute exact answer to this question because people will contine to discover many new species over time. As a result, the dictionary of creatures will become thicker and thicker for such frequent information additions.

Until now, people have discovered and named more than 1,400,000 species. Nevertheless, there are many creatures in the tropical forests and in the vase oceans that are unknown to people. According to scientists’ estimates, there are about 10 millions species on earth or even up to 30 million. A huge number, isn’t it? It can be said that our knowledge of organisms is quite limited Here are some facts you might not know about Earth: we often consider Earth the mother of all creatures. Earth is close and familiar as a mother, however, there are many interesting things that you might not know about this great mother. For example, - Have you ever wondered how old Mother Earth is? Scientists’ research has shown that Mother Earth is approximately 4.54 billion years old.

- What about her weight? It is an equally huge number: Earth weighs approximately 6,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg. Earth’s “waistline”- the equator is about 40,075 km - How far is it to the center of Earth? It is almost 5,955 km. The farther one goes towards the center of the planet, the more intense the heat becomes. For every kilometer, Earth’s temperature increases by 20 degree Celsius.

The temperature near the center rises up to 3,870 degree Celsius.

- Most of the Earth’s component are in liquid form. The most solid crust of the planet is only about 66, thick, thinner than the skin of an apple as an equivalent ratio.

- More interestingly, during the ancient days, a day on Earth did not last for 24 hours as it does now. A billion years ago, a day on Earth lasted only 18 hours. In the future, a day on Earth will last up to 960 hours.

And there are many more interesting facts about our planet waiting for you to discover. Keep on searching 17.

1. Bottlenose dolphins are marine mammal that live in tropical and temperate oceans (oceans with mild temperature) around the world. This includes the waters off the UK and Ireland, where you can spot them swimming and playing in bays and river estuaries 2. These beautiful creatures have a short thick beak (as their name suggests) and a curved mouth, giving the appearance that they are always smiling. They are usually grey in color, and measure around two to four meters in length 3. Social creatures, bottlenose dolphins travel in groups, called “pods”, of around 10-15. In these groups they play and hunt together, as well as cooperate to raise young dolphins calves and help each other.

4. Bottlenose dolphins are super swimmers, gliding through the water using their curved dorsal fin on their back, a powerful tail, and pointed flippers. They can reach speeds over 30km and hour and dive as deep as 250m below the surface 5. These cool creatures are awesome acrobats, too, and can be seen flipping (or breaching) out of the water. In fact, they can launch themselves up to five meters out of the water before crashing back down with a splash. There are different theories as to why they do this- it could be to get a better view of things in the distance, clean parasites off their bodies, communicate with other pods, or just for good fun 6. Although they live underwater, the bottlenose dolphins must come up to the surface to breathe air. It breathes through what’s called a “blowhole”, a hole at the top of its head. These clever creatures can open this hole when inhaling and exhaling out of the water, and close it when below the ocean surface. They can hold their breath underwater for around seven minutes.

7. Bottlenose dolphins are kings of communication. They send each other messages in different ways- they squeak and whistle and also use body language, leaping out of the water, snapping their jaws, and even butting heads 8. These magnificent mammals also produce high-pitched clicks to help them navigate and find food- a process called “echolocation”. When the clicking sounds hit an object in the water- such as a rock or fish- they bounce back to the dolphin as echoes. From this, the super swimmers can work out the location, size and shape of the object.

D. There, it is on your desk Question 17-20: Read and choose the correct answer THE BUTTERFLY LIFE CYCLE We all love butterflies for their beautiful, brightly-coloured wings. But did you know that these fab flyers begin life as something completely different? As they grow, they undergo one serious terrific transformation- a process known as “metamorphosis”.

- Stage 1: the egg It all starts when a female butterfly lays her eggs, usually on leaves or stems of plants. Inside these tiny eggs, caterpillar grow. Depending on the species, the eggs can vary in shape and texture- they can be round, oval or cylindrical, and smooth, bumpy or wrinkled. The time it takes for the eggs to hatch can also vary- in some species, they will hatch within a few weeks and in others they will only hatch once the weather is warm enough - Stage 2: caterpillar Once ready, the caterpillar leaves its eggs home and enters the big outside world. And these little critters have one serious appetite- they actually eat their way out of the egg and immediately start chomping on the leaves of the host plant. During this stage, they shed their skin four or five times- as the caterpillar grows, its skin becomes too tight and splits open, revealing a new, larger skin underneath. A fully grown caterpillar can be over 100 times larger than when it emerged from its eg - Stage 3: the pupa Once fully grown, the caterpillar forms itself into a “pupa” (or chrysalis)- a kind of vessel in which the caterpillar changes into a butterfly. They usually do this on twigs or safe, hidden areas around the host plant. The “pupa” stage may last a few weeks to several months depending on the species. During this time, a hardened case forms around the pupa to protect it from predators and extreme weather conditions. And inside, the tissue, limbs and organs of the caterpillar transform. The result? A wonderful winged butterfly - Stage 4: the butterfly Once the butterfly is ready to emerge, the case around the pupa splits open. But it is not time to take off just yet, as the wings are at first wet, soft and wrinkled against its body. The butterfly waits for its wings to dry, and pumps a liquid called hemolymph into them so that they become big and strong. Once fit for fight, this brilliant bug then takes to the air in search for flowers to feed on. And that’s the cycle complete- and ready to start all over again.

They mainly feed on large mammals such as deer, wild pigs, antelope and buffalo.

3. Tigers are solitary hunters, and generally search for food alone at night. They quietly stalk their prey until they are close enough to pounce- then they kill their victim with a bite to the neck or back of the head 4. Unlike most members of the cat family, tigers like water. They are good swimmers and often cool off in pools or streams 5. When a tiger wants to be heard, you will know about it because their roar can be heard as far as three kilometers away.

6. They may be big and heavy, but tigers are by no means slow movers. In fact, at full speed they can reach up to 65km/h 7. These fierce felines have walked the earth for a long time. Fossil remains of tigers found in parts of China are believed to be 2 million years old 8. Every tiger in the world is unique- no two tigers have the same pattern of stripes 9.

These super swimmers are the largest predatory fish (fish that eat other fish or animals) on our planet. On average, they grow to around 4.6m long, but some great whites have been measured at 6m- that’s half the length of a bus 3. Great white sharks are grey with a white underbelly, from where they get their name. They have a streamlined shape and powerful tails that propel them through the water at over 60km per hour 4. Any creature unlucky enough to find itself in the gob of a great white is in for a nasty shock. Because this marine beast’s mouth 5. Whilst many think of these beasts as fearsome man-eaters, human aren’t, in fact, on the great white’s menu. There are around 5-10 attacks a year, but researchers believe that, rather than preying on human to eat them, the sharks are instead taking a “sample bite” out of curiosity, before swimming off 6. So what do they eat? Well, when they are young, they feed on small prey, such as fish and rays. But when they are older and bigger, they generally feast on sea mammals such as sea lions, seals, and small whales 7. Great white sharks have such a strong sense of smell that they can detect a colony of seals two miles away.

And check this out- if there was only one drop of blood in 100 liters of water, a great white would smell it 8. These cunning creatures like to take their prey surprise. They usually position themselves underneath their unsuspecting victims before swimming up and …chomp! They often burst out of the water in a leap (called a breach) before falling back in with their meal in their mouths 9. When a great white give birth, she usually has two to ten youngsters, called “pups”. But she shows no care for her offspring- in fact, she may even try to eat them. Taking care of themselves, the newborn pups will immediately swim off into the ocean 10. Great white sharks are at the top of the food chain and aren’t likely to be killed by other sea creatures.

Sadly, however, they are under serious threat by human activity. Illegal hunting of these beautiful beasts, and overfishing, have meant that today, great white sharks are a vulnerable species on the IUCN Red List 17. Where can great white sharks be found? ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Koalas are found in the eucalyptus forests of eastern Australia. They have grey fur with a cream-colored chest, and strong, clawed feet, perfect for living in the branches of trees 2. Cuddy critters, koalas measures about 60cm to 85cm long, and weigh about 14 kg 3. Although you may have heard people call them koala “bears”, these awesome animals aren’t bears at allthey are in fact marsupials. A group of mammals, most marsupials have pouches where their newborn develop.

4. When an infant koalas- called a joey- is born, it immediately climbs up to its mother’s pouch. Blind and earless, a joey uses its strong sense of touch and smell, as well as natural instinct, to find its way 5. A joey grows and develops in the pouch for about six months. Once strong enough, the youngster rides around on its mother’s back for a further six months, only using the pouch to feed 6. Koala’s grow up to become big eaters, shifting up to one kilogram of eucalyptus leaves in a day. They are fussy, too, and will select the most nutritious and tastiest leaves from the trees where they live 7. These magnificent mammals get their name from an Aboriginal term meaning, “no drink”. It is believed this is because koalas get almost all their moisture from the leaves they eat, and rarely drink water.

8. But check this out- eucalyptus leaves are super tough and poisonous. Luckily for koalas, they have a long digestive organ called a cecum which allows them to break down the leaves unharmed 9. Enjoy having a snooze? Well so do our furry friends. Koalas don’t have much energy and, when not feasting on leaves, they spend their time dozing in the branches. Believe it or not, they can sleep for up to 18 hours a day 10. Although these beautiful creatures are protected by law, and not classed as an endangered species, their habitat is under threat. Sadly, around 80% of koala habitat has been lost to human homes, drought and forest fires 16.

Giraffes are found in the dry savannas of Africa, where they roam among the open plains and woodlands 2. Well known for their long necks, these gentle giants are the world’s tallest living land animals. An adult male can grow to around 5.5m- that’s tallest than three adult human 3. A giraffe’s height is helpful for keeping a look out for predators, such as lions and hyenas. Their excellent eyesight allows them to spot hungry beasts from far away, too 4. Herbivores, giraffe only eat plants. Their favourite grub is the acacia tree, and they use their long necks to reach the leaves and buds in the treetops. Their long tongues (which grow to a whopping 53 cm) also help them pull down leaves growing way up high 5. And boy do these guys have an appetite. They spend most of their time eating, and can guzzle up to 45kg of leaves and twigs a day 6. Whilst they may eat a lot, giraffe don’t drink much water. This is because they get most of their water from their leafy leaves, and only need to drink once every few days 7. Giraffes are very social animals and roam around in groups. These groups, called towers, typically have around 15 members led by an adult male. The other members are females and young males.

8. To see who is stronger, males (called bulls) fight by butting their long necks and heads. This is known as “necking”. These fights aren’t usually dangerous, and end when one bull admits defeat and walks away.

9. Female giraffes give birth standing up. The result? Newborns are welcomed to the world with a 1.5m drop to the ground. But these infants are quick to get on their feet- within 30 minutes they are standing, and only hours later they are able to run with their mothers.

10. In the wild, these beautiful creatures live for around 25 years. In captivity they live longer, and have been known to reach 40 years old 77

The largest animals to have ever lived on Earth, blue whales can grow to over 30m long and weigh more than 130,000 kg- that is longer than three buses and heavier than three lorries 2. Pretty much everything about the blue whale is massive. Its tongue weighs as much as elephant, its heart is the size of a car, and its blood vessels are so wide you could swim through them 3. These blue-grey giants have a long, stream-lined body, a wide head, huge flippers, a powerful tail and a small dorsal fin. Some individuals have a yellowy-colored underside, giving rise to the nickname “sulphur bottom” whales.

4. Blue whales can be found in all of our planet’s oceans, except the Arctic, usually alone or in groups of two or four. But in areas where there is a lot of food available, as many as 60 whales may come together.

5. Despite their humongous size, blue whales eat tiny shrimp-like crustaceans called krill. But they shift a fair few of these seafood snacks- up to 40 million each day, in fact 6. These marine marvels are a species of “baleen” whale. Instead of teeth, they have baleen, a fibrous material used to filter their food. When eating, the whale lets a huge volume of water and krill into its mouth. It then pushes the water through its 300-400 baleen plates, which trap the tasty grub to be swallowed 7. To communicate with each other, blue whales makes a series of super-loud vocal sounds. Their calls are the loudest of any creature on the planet, in fact, and can be heard underwater for hundreds of kilometers.

8. These awesome aquatic animals follow a seasonal migration pattern. During the feeding season, they fill up on krill in cold polar waters. Then they travel to warmer, tropical waters to give birth.

9. At birth, blue whale calves measure around 8m long and weigh a massive 4,000 kg. They grow quickly, too- for seven to eight months, these bulky babies suckle on their mother’s rich, fatty milk, and gain around 90kg each day 10. Sadly, in the late 19th early 20th century, blue whales were heavily hunted. And despite the global hunting ban in 1966, their population has declined by 70-90% in the past 150 years. With only 10,000-25,000 left in the wild, these magnificent marine mammals are today classified as in endangered species 17.

Short answer: You will die Explanation: At the equator, the surface of Earth and everything on it is rotating at 465 meters per second. This speed gradually decreases as you go closer to the poles. As soon as Earth stops rotating, everything on Earth (except at the poles) would continue moving as it had been. Your body would fly east at the supersonic speed of 465 meters per second if you are near the equator. You can only survive at the poles (for a few second).

There would be giant tsunamis and all the water would start moving towards the poles. Half of Earth would be completely exposed to the Sun, which would raise the temperature and the other half would freeze.

The speed of the wind would be faster than the shock wave of an atom bomb. It would instantly start fires all around the planet. The iron core in Earth’s center would stop, too, and thus the protective magnetic field would no longer be there. The radioactive rays from the Sun would enter Earth and kill everything left 16.

WHICH CAME FIRST- THE EGG OR THE CHICKEN? Short answer: the egg Explanation: egg laying animals existed way before the chicken came. So technically, the egg came before the chicken Let’s turn the clock back many, many moons ago when there were no chickens. A creature very similar to a chicken (let’s call it proto-chicken) appeared. Its genes were passed in the form of DNA to its offspring. However, the replication of DNA is never 100% accurate and very often produces a tiny change for the new organism. These tiny changes in DNA can create a new species over thousands of generations. The same happened with proto-chickens and a small genetic mutation that created the new species called chicken, which grew in egg 18. Why did the egg technically come first?

Many birds fly south in the winter. Birds that eat nectar or insects will not be able to find food in areas that have cold winters. To find the food they needs, birds will migrate. Migrating means leaving home to find warmer areas Birds that migrates usually leave at about the same time each year and fly back home at around the same time each spring. How do they know when to come back to their homes? Well, that is something we don’t know for sure but birds (like most other animals) have strong instincts that tell them where it is warm enough to head back to their homes up north.

When birds immigrate, they fly in large groups or flocks and they often fly in the shape of the letter V, which help them glide along on the currents in the air so they don’t have to work as hard Some kinds of birds might fly very long distances, like from Canada down to Central America, while other kinds of birds only fly across a few states. It can take the flocks weeks or even months to get to their winter home in the south, depending on how far they have to go and how fast they fly 16.
