V. READ THE PASSAGE AND CHOOSE THE BEST ANSWERS TO THE QUESTIONS  (20 PTS)

The Winterthur Museum is a collection and a house. There are many museums devoted to the decorative arts and many house museums, but rarely in the United States is a great collection displayed in a great country house. Passing through successive generations of a single family, Winterthur has been a private estate for more than a century. Even after the extensive renovations made to it between 1929 and 1931, the house remained a family residence. This fact is of importance to the atmosphere and effect of the museum. The impression of a lived-in house is apparent to the visitor: the rooms look as if they were vacated only a short while ago whether by the original owners of the furniture or the most recent residents of the house can be a matter of personal interpretation. Winterthur remains, then, a house in which a collection of furniture and architectural elements has been assembled. Like an English country house, it is an organic structure; the house, as well as the collection and manner of displaying it to the visitor, has changed over the years. The changes have coincided with developing concepts of the American arts, increased knowledge on the part of collectors and students, and a progression toward the achievement of a historical effect in period-room displays. The rooms at Winterthur have followed this current, yet still retained the character of a private house.

The concept of a period room as a display technique has developed gradually over the years in an effort to present works of art in a context that would show them to greater effect and would give them more meaning for the viewer. Comparable to the habitat group in a natural history museum, the period room represents the decorative arts in a lively and interesting manner and provides an opportunity to assemble objects related by style, date, or place of manufacture.

IV. Read the following passage and choose the best answer from A, B, C or D:

I had feared that my companion would talk, but it was soon plain (rõ ràng) that there was no such danger. Two days passed during which we did not exchange a single word. He seemed, indeed, absolutely unaware of my presence. He neither read nor wrote, but spent most of his time sitting at the table and looking out of the window across the pleasant parkland that surrounded the house. He sometimes talked to himself and said things half under his breath. He bit his nails and once he produced a penknife and dug holes in the furniture until one of the attendants (nhân viên) took it from him. I thought at first that perhaps he was mentally ill. During the second day I even began to feel a little nervous of him. He was extremely large, both broad and tall, with very wide shoulders and enormous hands. His huge head was usually sunk low between his shoulders. He had dark, rather untidy hair and a big shapeless mouth which open very now and then. Once or twice he began singing to himself, but broke off abruptly (bất ngờ) on each occasion - and this was the nearest he seemed to get to noticing my presence.

By the evening of the second day I was completely unable to go on with my work. Out of a mixture of nervousness and curiosity, I sat, too looking out of my window and blowing my nose, and wondering how to set about establishing the human contact which was by now becoming an absolute necessity. It ended of with my asking him for his name. He had been introduced to me when he arrived, but I had paid

no attention then. He turned towards me a very gently pair of dark eyes and said his name: Huge Belfounder. He added:" I thought you didn't want to talk." I said that I was not at all against talking, that I had just been rather busy with something when he arrived, and I begged his pardon if I had appeared rude.

It seemed to me, even from the way he spoke, that he was not only mentally ill, but was highly intelligent; and I began, almost automatically, to pack up my papers. I knew that from now on I should do no more work. I was sharing a room with a person of the greatest fascination.

How did Huge spend the first two days? He worked as if the writer was not there. He talked and sang to himself from time to time. He spent his time making holes in the furniture. He kept annoying the attendants. On the second evening the writer tried in vain to start a conversation. was feeling bored. began to fell frightened of his companion. could not concentrate on his work. Huge didn't talk to the writer at first because he didn't realise the writer wished to. he thought the writer was rude. he was feeling ill. he was too busy. The writer's attitude to Huge changed from fear to nervousness. nervousness to interest. curiosity to nervousness. nervousness to unfriendliness.

V. Read the passage and put one suitable word into each gap:

People usually complain that they never have enough time to accomplish tasks. The hours and

(1)  ................  seem to slip away before many planned chores get done. (2)  ....................   to time management experts, the main reason for this is that most people fail to set priorities about what to do (3)  ................. They get tied down by trivial; time-consuming matters and never complete the important ones.

One simple solution often used by those at the top (4)  ................. to keep lists of tasks to be accomplished daily. These lists order jobs from most essential to (5)  .................   essential and are checked regularly through the day to access progress. Not only is this an effective way to imagine time, but also it serves to give individuals a much-deserved sense (6)  ..................   satisfaction over their achievements. People (7)  .................   do not keep lists often face the end of the work with uncertainty over the significance of their accomplishments, which over time can contribute to serious problems in mental and (8)  ..................   health.
