II. READING
TASK 1. Read the passage. Circle the best answer A, B, or C to each of the questions.
Nowadays, Vietnamese shopaholics are in favour of purchasing products from e-commerce floors due to their significant benefits. To begin with, users can easily find a wide range of products, including electronic devices, clothes, food and drink, etc. on these shopping platforms; therefore, they are really paradises for those who are addicted to shopping. They can spend a whale of time looking for products, comparing their prices among multiple online stores and reading customers’ reviews to make a final decision on what they will buy. Furthermore, cheaper prices are a big advantage of buying online products. On special occasions these online markets supply compulsive shoppers heaps of promo codes, helping them enjoy the feeling of obtaining items at reduced prices. Another outstanding feature of e-commerce websites attracting new buyers every day is its convenience. With a few mouse clicks at home, customers can own everything available on e-commerce websites. They neither hastily browse through the products nor waste their time bargaining like in the outside stores. This new way of shopping clearly satisfies frequent shoppers’ demand.
1. What is the passage mainly about?
A. How Vietnamese people spend their time on purchasing online
B. Why purchasing on e-commerce websites is popular in Viet Nam
C. What Vietnamese young shoppers do on e-commerce floors
2. What does the word They in line 6 mean?
A. Shopaholics
B. Paradises
C. Products
3. According to the passage, what is NOT the shopping practice of Vietnamese online shoppers?
A. Looking for products
B. Bargaining over the prices of products
C. Consulting product reviews
4. Why do compulsive shoppers prefer promo codes?
A. Because they can use them to buy good bargains.
B. Because they can enjoy shopping whenever they want.
C. Because they can buy brand-name items free of charge with them.
5. How convenient is online shopping?
A. Customers have to browse hurriedly through the products.
B. Customers can buy things with a lot of mouse clicks.
C. Customers don’t take time to bargain.

Câu 5 : 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.
Life in the Future
Planet Earth has many problems. Different kinds of pollution are harming the planet. The world’s population is continuing to grow each year. Many people believe that in the future, we will have to find a new place to live.
Space stations are one place where people could live. People can build parts of a space station on Earth and then put them together in space. It will be easier for people to live on space stations than different planets. One bad thing is there won’t be any gravity, and people won’t be able to move much.
Some scientists think Mars is the best option. People won’t be able to go outside on Mars, but we can build new cities there. We need to build better spaceships because they cost too much money now. Some people think that Venus will also be an option because the gravity is similar to Earth's. However, the weather on Venus is too hot for people to live there.
The passage is mainly about _______.
visiting other planets
