Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each 
of the question. 
Women often complain that the men in their lives are not romantic enough. But men sometimes have 
trouble expressing their feelings, often resorting to cheesy Hallmark cards or pricey bejeweled baubles to 
do the job for them. But there is a far better way to be romantic and it doesn’t involve spending a fortune 
or even opening your mouth.
In the days before courting consisted of hanging out and getting drinks, courting was a formal and 
dignified endeavor. Symbols were used to express feelings and thoughts deemed too special for mere 
words. During the Victorian Era, a whole romantic language developed around the giving and receiving 
of flowers. Everything from the type and size of the flower to the way it was held or presented conveyed 
layers of meaning and communicated a gentleman’s feelings and intentions. Each bouquet contained a 
secret message for a lady to eagerly interpret and endlessly dissect.
These days giving flowers has become a somewhat ho-hum cliché. Resurrecting this Victorian tradition 
will infuse the gesture with new life and romance and bring back some of the subtly, mystery, and fun of

courtship. Your lady will swoon that you put far more thought into your selection of flowers than 
grabbing a bouquet out of the case at Wal-Mart. You’ll come off as a real gentleman and a hopeless 
romantic. It can become an amazing tradition you’ll both enjoy. Seriously, women eat this stuff up.
Of course, even women nowadays have forgotten the meanings of flowers. So buy your lady a flower 
dictionary. And keep a copy for yourself (it’s important that you both use the same reference, as the 
meanings were never set in stone and can sometimes vary from book to book). Then, each time you 
present her with a bouquet, she can search the volume to find what secret messages you have embedded 
in the flowers.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each 
of the question. 
Plastic bags are used by everybody. From a vegetable vendor to a designer store, everyone seems to use 
them. Even though they are one of the modern conveniences that we seem to be unable to do without, 
they are responsible for causing pollution, killing wildlife, and using up the precious resources of the 
Earth. But, most of us are blissfully unaware of the repercussions that are occurring and will take place 
in the future because of the plastic bags.
Every once in a while, the government passes out an order banning store owners from providing plastic 
bags to customers for carrying their purchases, with little lasting effect. Plastic bags are very popular with 
both retailers as well as consumers because they are cheap, strong, lightweight, functional, as well as a 
hygienic means of carrying food as well as other goods. About a hundred billion plastic bags are used 
Trang 5
every year in the U.S. alone. And then, when one considers the huge economies and populations of India, 
China, Europe, and other parts of the world, the numbers can be staggering. The problem is further 
exacerbated by the developed countries shipping off their plastic waste to developing countries like India.
Once they are used, most bags go into landfills. Each year, more and more bags are ending up littering the 
environment. Once they become litter, plastic bags find their way into our waterways, parks, beaches, and 
streets. And, if they are burned, they infuse the air with toxic fumes. About 100,000 animals, such as 
dolphins, turtles, whales, penguins are killed every year due to these bags. Many animals ingest plastic 
bags, mistaking them for food, and therefore, die. And worse, the ingested plastic bag remains intact even 
after the death and decomposition of the animal. Thus, it lies around in the landscape where another 
victim may ingest it. One of the worst environmental effects is that they are non-biodegradable. The 
decomposition takes about 400 years. No one will live so long to witness the decomposition of plastic! 
Thus, save the environment for the future generations as well as animals.
Petroleum products are diminishing and getting more expensive by the day, since we have used this non-
renewable resource increasingly. And to make plastic, about 60-100 million barrels of oil are needed 
every year around the world. Surely, this precious resource should not be wasted on producing plastic 
bags, should it? Petroleum is vital for our modern way of life. It is necessary for our energy requirements 
- for our factories, transportation, heating, lighting, and so on. Without viable alternative sources of 
energy yet on the horizon, if the supply of petroleum were to be turned off, it would lead to practically the 
entire world grinding to a halt.
So, what can be done? A tote bag can make a good substitute for carrying groceries and the shopping. 
You can keep the bag with the cashier, and then put your purchases into it instead of the usual plastic bag. 
Recycling the bags you already have is another good idea. These can come into use for various purposes, 
like holding your garbage, instead of purchasing new ones. While governments may be working out ways 
to lessen the impact of plastic bags on the environment; however, each of us should shoulder some of the 
responsibility for this problem, which ultimately harms us. Plastics are not only non-biodegradable, but 
are one of the major pollutants of the sea. For a clean and green environment, try to use alternatives to 
plastic whenever and wherever possible. Cut down your use of plastic, and do your bit to save our planet.
