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 39 to 45.

Long before they can actually speak, babies pay special attention to the speech they hear around them. Within the first month of their lives, babies' responses to the sound of the human voice will be different from their responses to other sorts of auditory stimuli. They will stop crying when they hear a person talking, but not if they hear a bell or the sound of a rattle. At first, the sounds that an infant notices might be only those words that receive the heaviest emphasis and that often occur at the ends of utterances. By the time they are six or seven weeks old, babies can detect the difference between syllables pronounced with rising and falling inflections. Very soon, these differences in adult stress and intonation can influence babies' emotional states and behavior. Long before they develop actual language comprehension, babies can sense when an adult is playful or angry, attempting to initiate or terminate new behavior, and so on, merely on the basis of cues such as the rate, volume, and melody of adult speech.

Adults make it as easy as they can for babies to pick up a language by exaggerating such cues. One researcher observed babies and their mothers in six diverse cultures and found that, in all six languages, the mothers used simplified syntax, short utterances and nonsense sounds, and transformed certain sounds into baby talk. Other investigators have noted that when mothers talk to babies who are only a few months old, they exaggerate the pitch, loudness, and intensity of their words. They also exaggerate their facial expressions, hold vowels longer, and emphasize certain words.

More significant for language development than their response to general intonation is observation that tiny babies can make relatively fine distinctions between speech sounds. In other words, babies enter the world with the ability to make precisely those perceptual discriminations that are necessary if they are to acquire aural language.

Babies obviously derive pleasure from sound input, too: even as young as nine months they will listen to songs or stories, although the words themselves are beyond their understanding. For babies, language is a sensory-motor delight rather than the route to prosaic meaning that it often is for adults. 

According to the author, why do babies listen to songs and stories, even though they cannot understand them? 

A. They understand the rhythm

B. They enjoy the sound

C. They can remember them easily

D. They focus on the meaning of their parents’ words

Thông tin: Babies obviously derive pleasure from sound input, too: even as young as nine months they will listen to songs or stories, although the words themselves are beyond their understanding.

Tạm dịch: Rõ ràng em bé tìm thấy niềm vui từ những âm thanh: ngay cả khi còn bé ở chín tháng tuổi, chúng sẽ lắng nghe những bài hát hay những câu chuyện, mặc dù chúng không thể hiểu.

Chọn B

Dịch bài đọc:

Rất lâu trước khi thực sự có thể nói, trẻ em đặc biệt chú ý đến lời nói chúng nghe thấy xung quanh. Trong tháng đầu tiên của cuộc đời, trẻ em sẽ có phản ứng khác nhau giữa âm thanh từ giọng nói của con người và âm thanh đến từ các kích thích thính giác khác. Chúng sẽ ngừng khóc khi nghe một người nói chuyện, nhưng sẽ không như thế nếu nghe một tiếng chuông hoặc âm thanh tiếng trống. Lúc đầu, những âm thanh àm trẻ sơ sinh có thể nhận ra chỉ là những từ được nhấn mạnh và thường là những từ ở cuối câu nói. Đến khi được 6 hoặc 7 tuần tuổi, bé có thể phát hiện sự khác biệt giữa các âm tiết phát âm với giọng cao và giọng thấp. Rất nhanh sau đó, những khác biệt trong sự nhấn giọng và ngữ điệu của người lớn có thể ảnh hưởng đến trạng thái cám xúc và hành vi của trẻ sơ sinh. Rất lâu trước khi trẻ phát triển sự hiểu biết ngôn ngữ thực tế, bé có thể cảm nhận được khi một người lớn đang vui hay tức giận, cố gắng để bắt đầu hoặc chấm dứt hành vi mới, và như vậy, chỉ đơn thuần trên cơ sở của các tín hiệu như tỉ lệ, âm lượng và giai điệu của lời nói từ người lớn.

Người lớn tạo điều kiện dễ dàng cho trẻ sơ sinh nhận ra một ngôn ngữ bằng cách phóng đại tín hiệu. Một nhà nghiên cứu quan sát trẻ sơ sinh và các bà mẹ trong sáu nền văn hóa khác nhau và phát hiện ra rằng, trong tất cả sáu ngôn ngữ, các bà mẹ sử dụng cú pháp đơn giản, lời nói ngắn, có những âm thanh vô nghĩa, và biến một số âm thanh nào đó thành cách nói chuyện như của bé. Những nhà nghiên cứu khác đã lưu ý rằng khi mẹ nói chuyện với em bé chỉ mới vài tháng tuổi, họ phóng đại cao độ, độ to và cường độ của lời nói. Họ cũng phóng đại luôn cả nét mặt của họ, giữ nguyên âm dài hơn và nhấn mạnh một số từ.

Đáng kể hơn trong sự phát triển ngôn ngữ so với phản ứng với ngữ điệu nói chung là những em bé có thể phân biệt tương đối giữa các âm nói. Nói cách khác, trẻ bước vào thế giới với khả năng phân biệt chính xác, điều rất cần thiết nếu chúng muốn học được ngôn ngữ qua thính giác.

Rõ ràng em bé tìm thấy niềm vui từ những âm thanh: ngay cả khi còn bé ở chín tháng tuổi, chúng sẽ lắng nghe những bài hát hay những câu chuyện, mặc dù chúng không thể hiểu. Đối với trẻ, ngôn ngữ là một cảm giác thích thú chứ không phải là con đường đến với những ý nghĩa nhàm chán mà người lớn vẫn làm.

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   22  to  26

A.   Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer.

The ruined temples of Angkor are perhaps one of the mast impressive Seven Wonders of the World. Located in modern day Cambodia near Lake TonIe Sap, the largest freshwater lake in Asia, Angkor was the seat of power for the Khmer Empire from the ninth to the fifteenth century. The ruins of Angkor are documented as same .of the mast impressive ones in the world, rivaling the pyramids of Giza in Egypt. Why this mighty civilization died out is a question that archeologists are now only beginning to ponder. The answer, it turns out, may be linked with the availability of fresh water.

One possible explanation far the downfall of the Khmer Empire has to do with the inhabitants' irrigation system. The temple and palaces of Angkor were constructed around a series of artificial reservoirs and canals which were annually flooded to capacity by the Mekong River. Once filled, they were used to irrigate the surrounding rice patties and farmland during the course of the year. Farmers were completely dependent upon the water for their crucial rice crop. Without consistent irrigation, the farmers would have been unable to maintain functional crop production.

Scientists speculate that toward the end of the Khmer Empire the hydraulic systems of the reservoirs and canals broke down. The construction of hundreds of sandstone temples and palaces required an enormous amount of physical labor. In addition, as the capital of the Khmer Empire, Angkor contained upwards of one hundred thousand people who resided in and around Angkor. In order to feed so many people, the local farmers were driven to grow food quicker and more efficiently. After centuries of continual use, the irrigation system was pushed beyond its capacity. Soil erosion, nutrient depletion, and the loss of water led to decrease in the food supply. With less food available, the people of Angkor slowly began to migrate to other parts of Cambodia thus leaving the marvelous city of Angkor to be swallowed by the jungle. Therefore, it is speculated that the Khmer Empire may have fallen victim to its own decrepit infrastructure.

22. What is the passage mainly about?

A. Modern day agricultural procedures in Cambodia.

B. A possible explanation for the, decline of a civilization.

C. The essential role water plays in farming.

D. Religious temples of the ancient Khmer Empire.

23. The passage preceding the passage most likely discusses ______.

A. architecture of ancient Asian civilization

B. religious practices of the people of Angkor

C. the form of government practiced by the Khmer Empire

D. the other six wonders of the world

24. According to the passage, Lake Tonle Sap in Cambodia ______.

A. is an enormous fresh body of water in Asia

B. was unable to supply enough fish for the people of Angkor

C. became polluted due to a population explosion

D. is one of the Seven Wonders of the World

25. Why does the author mention the hydraulic systems of the reservoirs?

A. They supplied irrigation from the Indian Ocean.

B. They became non-functional due to overuse.

C. They were destroyed by nearby warrior tribes.

D. They helped transport the sandstones for constructing temples.

26. It can be inferred from the passage that the inhabitants of the Khmer Empire ______.

A. were intentionally starved by the farmers

B. lost their food source due to excess rainfall

C. supplemented their diets with 'meat hunted in the nearby jungles

D. depended upon rice as their main source of food

27. All the following are mentioned as events that can affect food supply EXCEPT.

A. erosion of soil                                       B. contamination of soil

C. reduction of nutrients                            D. loss of water supply

They do not even try to read music until they have been playing for several years, and for a long time there is a big difference between their playing and reading of music.
