Early peoples had no need of engineering works to supply their water. Hunters and nomads camped near natural sources of fresh water, and populations were so sparse that pollution of the water supply was not a serious problem. After community life developed and agricultural villages became urban centres, the problem of supplying water became important for inhabitants of a city, as well as for irrigation of the farms surrounding the city. Irrigation works were known in prehistoric times, and before 2000 BC the rulers of Babylonia and Egypt constructed systems of dams and canals to impound the flood waters of the Euphrates and Nile rivers, controlling floods and providing irrigation water throughout the dry season. Such irrigation canals also supplied water for domestic purposes. The first people to consider the sanitation of their water supply were the ancient Romans, who constructed a vast system of aqueducts to bring the clean waters of the Apennine Mountains into the city and built basins and filters along these mains to ensure the clarity of the water. The construction of such extensive water-supply systems declined when the Roman Empire disintegrated, and for several centuries local springs and wells formed the main source of domestic and industrial water. The invention of the force pump in England in the middle of the 16th century greatly extended the possibilities of development of water-supply systems. In London, the first pumping waterworks was completed in 1562; it pumped river water to a reservoir about 37 m above the level of the River Thames and from the reservoir the water was distributed by gravity, through lead pipes, to buildings in the vicinity. >> Truy cập http://tuyensinh247.com/ để học Toán – Lý – Hóa – Sinh – Văn – Anh tốt nhất! 3/11 Increased per-capita demand has coincided with water shortages in many countries. Southeast England, for example, receives only 14 per cent of Britain's rainfall, has 30 per cent of its population, and has experienced declining winter rainfall since the 1980s. In recent years a great deal of interest has been shown in the conversion of seawater to fresh water to provide drinking water for very dry areas, such as the Middle East. Several different processes, including distillation, electrodialysis, reverse osmosis, and direct-freeze evaporation, have been developed for this purpose. Some of these processes have been used in large facilities in the United States. Although these processes are successful, the cost of treating seawater is much higher than that for treating fresh water. From A. Briggs’ article on culture , Microsoft® Student 2008 Question 45: Early peoples didn’t need water supply engineering works because ______. A.their community life had already developed B. natural sources of fresh water nearby were always available C. there was almost no dry season in prehistoric times D. they had good ways to irrigate their farms Question 46: The word “impound” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “______”.

Sleep is a natural process, and although a lot have been written about the subject, it is still surrounded by mystery. It is used by some as an escape from the world, and regarded by others as an irritating waste of time: some people get by on very little, others claim they cannot exist without at least ten hours, but nobody can do without sleep completely. Our night’s sleep does not just consist of a steady phase of gradually deepening sleep. It alternates between two stages: Non-dreaming or ordinary sleep, and REM (rapid eye movement) or dreaming sleep. As >> Truy cập http://tuyensinh247.com/ để học Toán – Lý – Hóa – Sinh – Văn – Anh tốt nhất! 4/11 soon as we fall asleep, we go straight into non-dreaming sleep for an hour or so, then into REM sleep for about 15 minutes, then back into non-dreaming sleep. It alternates in this way for the rest of the night, with non-dreaming sleep tending to last longer at the beginning of the night. Non-dreaming sleep occupies threequarters of our night’s sleep, about a quarter of it deep and the rest fairly light. It is widely believed that sleep repairs the body and makes good the damage caused by being awake. However, its main function is to refresh the brain. Experts believe that probably only about two-thirds of our sleep is necessary for repairing and refreshing the brain, with the most valuable sleep coming in the first few hours of the non-dreaming period, the last few hours of sleep are not so essential. The brain can manage quite well with reduced sleep as long as it is uninterrupted sleep. The quality of sleep is important. A study conducted in the USA looked at short sleepers, who slept for 5.5 hours on average, and long sleepers, who had 8.5 hours or more. It is discovered after a variety of tests that the long sleepers were poor sleepers, had twice as much REM sleep as the short sleepers, appeared to sleep longer to make up for poor sleep, and did not wake up in the morning refreshed. Similarly, people who sleep deeply do not necessarily get a better quality of sleep than shallow sleepers. Deep sleepers can feel tired the following day, so six hours of good sleep is worth more than eight hours of troubled sleep.

A. people need equal time of sleep B. sleep remains a puzzle C. sleep is among the processes of the nature D. everything about sleep has been brought to light Question 56: The word “irritating” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.

A. our night’s sleep occurs in a straight line of only two phases B. all sleeps are similar in the alternatives of the two stages during the night C. we spend only 25 percent of our night’s sleeping time dreaming D. we often have no dreams right after we fall asleep Question 58: The word “it” in paragraph 2 refers to ______. A. our night’s sleep B. the ordinary sleep C. the REM D. the night Question 59: The word “occupies” in paragraph 2 could be best replaced by ______. A. accounts for B. takes care of C. works out D. goes up Question 60: Unlike the common belief, sleep helps ______. A. not to be awake C. us to fix the damage happening by day B. us to repair our body D. our brain to rest and recover Question 61: The study discussed in the reading passage suggests that ______. A. the fewer hours we sleep, the more we dream B. deep sleep means better sleep C. the type of sleep is more important than its length D. six hours of sleep is better than eight hours Question 62: Which of the following is NOT discussed in the passage? A. The role of the sleep. B. Sleepless people’s problems. C. Types of sleep. D. The circle of a sleep. Question 63: It can be inferred from the reading passage that ______. A. if we can sleep uninterruptedly, it is not necessary to sleep the whole night B.

Câu này hỏi về mệnh đề quan hệ không xác định, giữa hai dấu phẩy. Dùng phương pháp loại trừ: A sai , vì was bắt đầu, câu sẽ thiếu chủ ngữ B sai. Vì câu thiếu động từ C sai, vì đặt giữa hai dấu phẩy sẽ không hợp lý về mặt ngữ pháp.

Phân tích câu ta thấy, có hai động từ “has increased” và “is” => A không thể chọn được, vì không thể có cáu trúc S + V +V. B cũng loại,vì nếu là câu chẻ, câu nhấn mạnh, ta phải theo công thức: It + be + N + that + S + V. C cũng loại vì though là liên từ, câu thiếu vế. Đáp án là D.
