These days it is easy for most of us to get a hold of the latest books or magazines. We can go to bookstores, order them through the Internet, or borrow them from the local library. Now imagine having to walk miles and miles through a hot sandy desert just to borrow a book. This is the reality for people living in the villages of the Garissa region of Kenya in East Africa. In 1996, librarian Wycliffe Oluoch used to spend each day waiting for people to come to borrow some of the 24,000 books in his library in Garissa. The library had no shortage of books, but people weren’t coming to read them. It was too much effort to walk through the desert just to borrow books. Oluoch racked his brain for ways to entice people into the library. After a lot of thought, he hit upon a great idea. If people wouldn’t come to the library, then he would have to take the library to them. Oluoch strapped boxes of books onto the backs of camels, and created the Mobile Camel Library. Starting with three camels in 1996, but more recently expanding the service to six camels, the Mobile Camel Library serves over one million people. Twice a month, the camel library can be seen carrying books all around the Garissa region. These hard-working animals need little water and can carry up to 500 pounds of books across the sands. A librarian, a library assistant, a herdsman, and a lookout all travel with the camels. The lookout helps protect the books from thieves. The children of Garissa love the camel library and appreciate Oluoch’s effort. Eleven- year-old Mohamud Mohamed reads his library books carefully and always returns them on time. He knows the Garissa library punishes people for losing books, just like any other library. However, the punishment is very stiff compared to that of other libraries. If a village loses a book, the camel library stops visiting. Question 31: What is the main idea of this reading? A. The necessity of books for people in Garissa. B. The advent of Mobile Camel Library in Garissa. C. Wycliffe Oluoch, a smart man in Garissa. D. The camels carryring books in Garissa. Question 32: People did not visit the library in Garissa because ___. A. walking there needed much effort B. people in garissa didn’t like the librarian C. the library books were not interesting D. people didn’t have camels Question 33: Which of the following statements about the passage is TRUE? A. The librarian and his camels travel through deserts to sell books for villagers. B. The children of Garissa are given books by camels. C. The library in Garissa houses a large volume of books. D. The mobile library through an African desert is called Garissa. Question 34: The word “entice” in paragraph 2 can be best replaced by ___. A. carry B. support C. allow D. attract Question 35: The word “them” in paragraph 4 refers to ___. A. people losing books B. library books C. other libraries D. the children of Garissa Trang 3/5 - Mã đề 123
4. 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 36 to 42. All mammals feed their young. Beluga whale mothers, for example, nurse their calves for some twenty months, until they are about to give birth again and their young are able to find their own food. The behavior of feeding of the young is built into the reproductive system. It is a nonselective part of parental care and the defining feature of a mammal, the most important thing that mammals- whether marsupials, platypuses, spiny anteaters, or placental mammals - have in common. But not all animal parents, even those that tend their offspring to the point of hatching or birth, feed their young. Most egg-guarding fish do not, for the simple reason that their young are so much smaller than the parents and eat food that is also much smaller than the food eaten by adults. In reptiles, the crocodile mother protects her young after they have hatched and takes them down to the water, where they will find food, but she does not actually feed them. Few insects feed their young after hatching, but some make other arrangement, provisioning their cells and nests with caterpillars and spiders that they have paralyzed with their venom and stored in a state of suspended animation so that their larvae might have a supply of fresh food when they hatch. For animals other than mammals, then, feeding is not intrinsic to parental care. Animals add it to their reproductive strategies to give them an edge in their lifelong quest for descendants. The most vulnerable moment in any animal’s life is when it first finds itself completely on its own, when it must forage and fend for itself. Feeding postpones that moment until a young animal has grown to such a size that it is better able to cope. Young that are fed by their parents become nutritionally independent at a much greater fraction of their full adult size. And in the meantime those young are shielded against the vagaries of fluctuating of difficult-to-find supplies. Once a species does take the step of feeding its young, the young become totally dependent on the extra effort. If both parents are removed, the young generally do not survive. Question 36: According to the passage, animal young are most defenseless when ___. A. their parents are away searching for food B. their parents have many young to feed C. they are only a few days old D. they first become independent Question 37: The word “edge” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ___. A. storage B. advantage C. danger D. verge Question 38: The word “they” in paragraph 2 refers to ___. A. young crocodiles B. crocodile mothers C. reptiles D. insects Question 39: According to the passage, how do some insects make sure their young have food? A. By locating their nests or cells near spiders and caterpillars. B. By storing food near their young. C. By searching for food some distance from their nest. D. By gathering food from a nearby water source. Question 40: The word “shielded” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ___. A. raised B. protected C. hatched D. valued Question 41: What does the passage mainly discuss? A. The difficulties young animals face in obtaining food. B. The care that various animals give to their offspring. C. The importance among young mammals of becoming independent. D. The methods that mammals use to nurse their young. Question 42: What can be inferred from the passage about the practice of animal parents feeding their young? A. It is most common among mammals. B. It is dangerous for the parents. C. It is unknown among fish. D. It is unrelated to the size of the young. Trang 4/5 - Mã đề 123
