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

For a century before the Erie Canal was built, there was much discussion among the general population of the Northeast as to the need for connecting the waterways of the Great Lakes with the Atlantic Ocean. A project of such monumental proportions was not going to be undertaken and completed without a supreme amount of effort.

The man who was instrumental in accomplishing the feat that was the Erie Canal was Dewitt Clinton. As early as 1812, he was in the nation's capital petitioning the federal government for financial assistance on the project, emphasizing what a boon to the economy of the country the canal would be; his efforts with the federal government, however, were not successful.

In 1816, Clinton asked the New York State Legislature for the funding for the canal, and this time he did succeed. A canal commission was instituted, and Clinton himself was made head of it. One year later, Clinton was elected governor of the state, and soon after, construction of the canal was started.

The canal took eight years to complete, and Clinton was on the first barge to travel the length of the canal, the Seneca Chief, which departed from Buffalo on October 26, 1825, and arrived in New York City on November

4. Because of the success of the Erie Canal, numerous other canals were built in other parts of the country.

A. Đoạn thứ nhất B. Đoạn thứ hai

Thông tin: Trong đoạn thứ 3 có viết: “A canal commission was instituted, and Clinton himself was made head of it. One year later, Clinton was elected governor of the state, and soon after, construction of the canal was started.”

Dịch bài đọc:

Trong một thế kỷ trước khi kênh đào Erie được xây dựng, đã có nhiều cuộc thảo luận giữa các dân cư nói chung của vùng Đông Bắc về nhu cầu kết nối các tuyến đường thủy của Great Lakes với Đại Tây Dương. Một dự án đồ sộ như vậy sẽ không được thực hiện và hoàn thành mà không có một nỗ lực tối đa. Người đóng vai trò quan trọng trong việc thực hiện thành công kênh đào Erie là Dewitt Clinton. Ngay từ năm 1812, ông đã có mặt ở thủ đô của quốc gia yêu cầu chính phủ liên bang hỗ trợ tài chính cho dự án, nhấn mạnh đến lợi ích của nền kinh tế nước này mà kênh đào có thể đem đến; tuy nhiên, những nỗ lực của ông với chính phủ liên bang, đã không thành công.

Năm 1816, Clinton yêu cầu Cơ quan Lập pháp Bang New York tài trợ cho kênh đào, và lần này ông đã thành công. Một ủy ban kênh đào đã được thành lập, và chính Clinton đã được làm chủ. Một năm sau, Clinton được bầu làm thống đốc của bang, và ngay sau đó, việc xây dựng kênh đào đã được bắt đầu.

Kênh đào này mất 8 năm để hoàn thành, và Clinton đã ở trên chiếc sà lan đầu tiên đi dọc theo chiều dài của con kênh, the Seneca Chief, khởi hành từ Buffalo vào ngày 26 tháng 10 năm 1825 và đến thành phố New York vào ngày 4 tháng 11. Vì thành công của kênh đào Erie, nhiều kênh khác được xây dựng ở các vùng khác của đất nước.

It is said that George Washington was one of the first to realize how important the building of canals would be to the nation's development. In fact, before he became the President, he headed the first company in the United States to build a canal, which was to connect the Ohio and Potomac rivers. It was never completed, but it showed the nation the feasibility of canals. As the country expanded westward, settlers in western New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio needed a means to ship goods. Canals linking natural waterways seemed to supply an effective method .In 1791, engineers commissioned by the state of New York investigated the possibility of a canal between Albany on the Hudson River and Buffalo on Lake Eric to link the Great Lakes area with the Atlantic seacoast. It would avoid the mountains that served as a barrier to canals from the Delaware and Potomac rivers.

The first attempt to dig the canal, to be called the Eric Canal, was made by private companies but only a comparatively small portion was built before the project was halted for lack of funds. The cost of the prospect was an estimated $5 million, an enormous amount for those days. There was some on-again-off-again federal funding, but this time the War of 1812 put an end to construction. In 1817, DeWitt Clinton was elected Governor of New York and persuaded the state to finance and build the canal. It was completed in 1825, costing $2 million more than expected.

The canal rapidly lived up to its sponsors' faith, quickly paying for itself through tolls. It was far more economical than any other form of transportation at the time. It permitted trade between the Great Lake region and the East coast, robbing the Mississippi River of much of its traffic. It allowed New York to supplant Boston, Philadelphia, and other eastern cities as the chief center of both domestic and foreign commerce. Cities sprang up along the canal. It also contributed in a number of ways to the North's victory over the South in the Civil War.

An expansion of the canal was planned in 1849. Increased traffic would undoubtedly have warranted its construction had it not been for the railroads.

Which of the following is NOT given as an effect of the building of the Eric Canal in paragraph 4?

A. It helped determine the outcome of the Civil War

B. It allowed the East coast to trade with the Great Lake Sea.

C. It established Boston and Philadelphia as the most important centers of trade.

D. It took water traffic away from the Mississippi River
