David Saucez’s bank robbing was as bad as his bingo. Desperate to pay of his gambling debts, he held up his local bank, and made off with around 2,000 pounds before turning up for work as a member of Belgian gendarmerie. It was the earliest his colleagues could have possible expected. For Saucez not only use his service pistol in the hold-up, but also made his get-away in his own easily recognized family car. The car’s number was taken by the manager of the Sub Belge bank in the Brussels suburb of Schaerbeek. He witnessed the hold-up, but was unnoticed by Saucez. The unhappy gendarme told colleagues who arrested him that he had run up a debt of 60,000 Belgian francs (around 800 pounds), playing bingo. He was also paying off a home loan, and his wife – who works in another bank – did not know of his gambling. Saucez, described as a “model gendarme” with six years’ service, said he considered robbing the same bank the week before. His nerve falled at the last moment, and he ended up asking for advice on a loan. On Monday this week be returned to the same bank, and the same temptation. This time is was too much. He told arresting officers “I had no intention of committing a hold-up. I left the barracks to go to the bank and request a delay in repaying my loans. It was on the way there that I decided to take action.” He was well equipped for the job, if not the getaway. Producing his service pistol, he demanded and got the money and then made off in his distinctive red Vauxhall. The gendarmerie, having answered the manager’s alarm call too late to catch the robber red handed, at least ha had the information to catch him red-vehicled. They traced the car number to Saucez, alerted his unit in Brussels, which said he had been on duty but was now absent. A few minutes later be turned up completely with the hold-up weapon the getaway car, and the remainer of the foots in his pocket. 16. David Saucez works … A. as a policeman. B. as a security guard.

In China’s inhospitable Northeast, almost 40 million people live caves. In Bai Ping, one of the villages in the area, everyone lives in one. Even the school is in cave. The cave, or yao dong, are ideal homes in an area with such a barren environment, where there are not enough stones and wood for building. Loess, the first soil brought by the wind from the Gobi Desert, is the only abundant material. Over the years, the soil turns into loess stone, which is soft and fragile, and is easy to work with. It only takes four or five people a few days to build a yao dong. Cave homes are four five metres wide and up to nine metres deep, big enough to house a family. Before the building starts, it is important to choose the right location for the cave. The builders make sure that the cave faces south so it will get as much sun as possible. The caves are then dug either sideways into the face of the valley, or vertical, like wells. The men start building the home by removing a huge plece of loess, cleaning a space for what will be the yard, then starting on the cave itself. Once the tunnel earthen walls are built inside to make the structure stronger. A stone archway is also installed to prevent the house from collapsing. Openings are then made for a door and windows. A yao dong built in this way will last at least 100 years, as long as it is regularly maintained. In some parts of the Northeast, nearly 90% of the population live in caves. It is not just practical but economical too. Each cave costs about 400 yuan (approximately HK$ 550), half the price of a conversation brick house. In an area where famers count themselves lucky to earn 150 yuan a month, cost-cutting is important. 7 Inside the caves are cool. They provide a welcome escape from the summer heat, which can reach 40 degrees Celsius. The walls and ceilings are often covered with newspapers because it slows down the rate of erosion of the loess. Many of the caves are decorated with colorful flowers animal shapes make from papers. The concept of these cave homes may even become popular in the West. Many “green architects” see them as having useful applications in modern housing. They are cheap, easy to maintain, and could easily be adapted for solar power. Without realizing it, the villages of China’s Northeast may have provided the answer to housing problems in the developed world. __________________________ Part 3: Man Would you like to see a movie tonight? Woman Yes, I’d love to. But don’t finish work until half nine. Can we see anything then? Man Yes, I think so. There’s this one. It has a late show tonight. And it looks good too. Woman All right. Let’s see that one. __________________________ Woman Did you find the flat you wanted? Man Yes, I did. And I got a good deal, I think. It’s almost 500 square feet I pay just over 5,000 a month for it __________________________ Woman That’s a nice personal stereo, John. Did you get it recently? Man Yes, it was quite a bargain. It was over one thousand dollars before. But I got 300 dollars off in the sale. __________________________ Woman Here’s the job you might be interested in, Sarah. Sarah Yes, but is says Form 6 or above. I left school at Form 5, remember? Woman How about this one? Sarah Yes, but my tying isn’t very good. Woman Well, why don’t you apply for this then? Sarah I think I will. __________________________ 8 Đáp án Gợi ý Bài Ôn tập Trình độ B - Số 7: Paper 1: READING COMPREHENSION Section A: 15 marks 1.A 9.B 2.D 3.B 10.B 11.A Section B: 5 marks 16.A 17.D Section C: 10 marks 21. car 22. easy 25. before 26. falling 29. saw 30. nearly 4.C 12.D 5.A 13.A 18.A 19.D 23. plane 27. time 24. hardly 28. took 6.A 14.D 7.C 15.A 8.D 20.C Paper 2: WRITING Section A: 15 marks Dear Mr. Dixon, 31.
