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 from 28 to 34.

Body language is a vital form of communication. In fact, it is believed that the various forms

of body language contribute about 70 percent to our comprehension. It is important to note,

however, that body language varies in different cultures. Take for example, eye movement. In the

USA a child is expected to look directly at a parent or teacher who is scolding him/her. In other

cultures the opposite is true. Looking directly at a teacher or parent in such a situation is

considered a sign of disrespect.

Another form of body language that is used differently, depending on the culture, is distance. In

North America people don't generally stand as close to each other as in South America. Two North

Trang 2/5 - Mã đề thi 403

Americans who don't know each other well will keep a distance of four feet between them, whereas

South Americans in the same situation will stand two to three feet apart. North Americans will stand

closer than two feet apart only if they are having a confidential conversation or if there is intimacy

between them.

Gestures are often used to communicate. We point a finger, raise an eyebrow, wave an arm – or

move any other part of the body – to show what we want to say. However, this does not mean that

people all over the world use the same gestures to express the same meanings. Very often we find that

the same gestures can communicate different meanings, depending on the country. An example of a

gesture that could be misinterpreted is sticking out the tongue. In many cultures it is a sign of making

a mistake, but in some places it communicates ridicule.

The dangers of misunderstanding one another are great. Obviously, it is not enough to learn the

language of another culture. You must also learn its non-verbal signals if you want to communicate

successfully.

(Adapted from "Reading Academic English" by Judy Rapoport, Ronit Broder and Sarah Feingold)

Question 28: What is the passage mainly about?

A. The significance of non-verbal signals in America

B. Misunderstandings in communication

C. Interpretations of gestures in different cultures

child is expected to ______.

A. stand close to the person

C. raise his/her eyebrows

B. look directly at the person

D. point a finger at the person

Question 30: The word "intimacy" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______.

A. enjoyment B. closeness C. strength D. agreement

Question 31: The word "misinterpreted" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______.

A. misbehaved

Question 32: The word "it" in paragraph 3 refers to ______.

A. an example B. making a mistake C. the country

another culture, it is advisable for a person ______.

B. to travel to as many countries as possible

A. posture

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 from 35 to 42.

The green building movement, started in the 1970s as a way to reduce environmental destruction,

is changing the way buildings are constructed. In the early years, green builders were a small minority,

and their goals of reducing the environmental impact of buildings were considered unrealistic. Now,

however, the movement is growing, as builders have been able to take advantage of new technology.

Green builders try to make use of recycled materials, which means less waste in dumps.

Also, they reduce environmental impact by reducing the energy requirements of a building. One

way is to provide an alternative, non-polluting source of energy. First, with solar panels, it is

possible to produce electricity from the rays of the sun. Once installed, they provide energy at no

cost and with no pollution.

Another solution is to reduce the amount of energy required in a building. It is possible to cut

electricity use noticeably by improving natural lighting and installing low-energy light bulbs. To

reduce the amount of fuel needed for heating or cooling, builders also add insulation to the walls so

Trang 3/5 - Mã đề thi 403

that the building stays warmer in winter and cooler in summer.

One example of this advanced design is the Genzyme Center of Cambridge, the most

environmentally responsible office building in America. Every aspect of the design and building had

to consider two things: the need for a safe and pleasant workplace for employees and the need to

lessen the negative environmental impact. 75 percent of the building materials were recycled

materials, and the energy use has been reduced by 43 percent and water use by 32 percent, compared

with other buildings of the same size.

In other parts of the world, several large-scale projects have recently been developed

according to green building principles. One of these is in Vauban, Germany, in an area that was

once the site of army housing. The site has been completely rebuilt with houses requiring 30

percent less energy than conventional ones. These houses, heated by special non-polluting

systems, are also equipped with solar panels.

A larger project is under way in China. The first phase of this project will include houses for 400

families built with solar power, non-polluting bricks, and recycled wall insulation. In a second phase,

entire neighborhoods in six cities will be built. If all goes well, the Chinese government plans to copy

these ideas in new neighborhoods across China.

Green building ideas, on a small or large scale, are spreading. Individuals, companies, and

governments are beginning to see their benefits. Not only are they environmentally friendly, green

buildings improve living and working conditions and also save money in the long run.

(Adapted from "Advanced Reading Power" by Beatrice S. Mikulecky and Linda Jeffries)
