The universal symbol of the Internet era communications, the @ sign used in e-mail addresses to signify the word 'at', is (23) _______ a 500-year-old invention of Italian merchants, a Rome academic has revealed. Giorgio Stabile, a science professor at La Sapienza University, claims to have stumbled on the earliest known example of the symbol's use, as a(n) (24) _______ of a measure of weight or volume. He says the sign represents an amphora, a measure of capacity based on the terracotta jars used to transport grain and liquid in the ancient Mediterranean world.

The professor unearthed toe ancient symbol in the course of research for a visual history of the 20th century, to be published by the Treccani Encyclopedia. The first (25) ________ instance of its use, he says, occurred in a letter written by a Florentine merchant on May 4,1536. He says the sign made its way along trade routes to northern Europe, where it came to represent "at the price of", its contemporary accountancy meaning.

Professor Stabile believes that Italian banks may possess even earlier documents (26)               the symbol lying forgotten in their archives. The oldest example could be of great value. It could be used (27)             publicity purposes and to enhance the prestige of the institution that owned it, he says.

VII. 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 28 to 34:

    A rather surprising geographical feature of Antarctica is that a huge freshwater lake, one of the world's largest and deepest, lies hidden there under four kilometers of ice. Now known as Lake Vostok, this huge body of water is located under the ice block that comprises Antarctica. The lake is able to exist in its unfrozen state beneath this block of ice because its waters are warmed by geothermal heat from the earth's core. The thick glacier above Lake Vostok actually insulates it from the frigid temperatures on the surface.

    The lake was first discovered in the 1970s while a research team was conducting an aerial survey of the area. Radio waves from the survey equipment penetrated the ice and revealed a body of water of indeterminate size. It was not until much more recently that data collected by satellite made scientists aware of the tremendous size of the lake; the satellite-borne radar detected an extremely flat region where the ice remains level because it is floating on the water of the lake.

    The discovery of such a huge freshwater lake trapped under Antarctica is of interest to the scientific community because of the potential that the lake contains ancient microbes that have survived for thousands   upon thousands of years, unaffected by factors such as nuclear fallout and elevated ultraviolet light that have affected organisms in more exposed areas. The downside of the discovery, however, lies in the difficulty of conducting research on the lake in such a harsh climate and in the problems associated with obtaining uncontaminated samples from the lake without actually exposing the lake to contamination. Scientists are looking for possible ways to accomplish this.

What is true of Lake Vostok?

  • A. It is completely frozen.
  • B. It is a saltwater lake.
  • C. It is beneath a thick slab of ice.
  • D. It is heated by the sun.
Câu 29

  • B. made use of radio waves
  • C. could not determine the lake's exact size
  • D. was controlled by a satellite
Câu 30
Mã câu hỏi: 264127

It can be inferred from the passage that the ice would not be flat if                 .

  • A. there were no lake underneath
  • B. the lake were not so big
  • C. Antarctica were not so cold
  • D. radio waves were not used
Câu 31

Mã câu hỏi: 264130

  • A. further discoveries on the surface of Antarctica
  • B. problems with satellite-borne radar equipment
  • C. ways to study Lake Vostok without contaminating it
  • D. the harsh climate of Antarctica

The purpose of the passage is to                        .

  • A. explain how Lake Vostok was discovered.
  • B. provide satellite data concerning Antarctica.

  • D. present an unexpected aspect of Antarctica's geography.

VIII. 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 35 to 42:

     Perhaps the most striking quality of satiric literature is its freshness and its originality of perspective. Satire itself, however, rarely offers original ideas. Instead, it presents the familiar in a new form. Satirists do not offer the world new philosophies. What they do is look at familiar conditions from a perspective that makes these conditions seem foolish, harmful, or affected. Satire jars us out of complacence into a pleasantly shocked realization that many of the values we unquestioningly accept are false.

     Don Quixote makes chivalry seem absurd; Brave New World ridicules the pretensions of science; A Modest Proposal dramatizes starvation by advocating cannibalism. None of these ideas is original. Chivalry was suspect before Cervantes, humanists objected to the claims of pure science before Aldous Huxley, and people were aware  of famine before Swift.

     It was not the originality of the idea that made these satires popular. It was the manner of expression, the satiric method, that made them interesting and entertaining. Satires are read because they are aesthetically  satisfying works of art, not because they are morally wholesome or ethically instructive. They are stimulating and refreshing because with commonsense briskness they brush away illusions and secondhand opinions. With spontaneous irreverence, satire rearranges perspectives, scrambles familiar objects into incongruous juxtaposition, and speaks in a personal idiom instead of abstract platitude.

     Satire exists because there is need for it. It has lived because readers appreciate a refreshing stimulus, an irreverent reminder that they live in a world of platitudinous thinking, cheap moralizing, and foolish philosophy. Satire serves to prod people into an awareness of truth, though rarely to any action on behalf of truth. Satire tends  to remind people that much of what they see, hear, and read in popular media is sanctimonious, sentimental, and only partially true. Life resembles in only a slight degree the popular image of it.

What does the passage mainly discuss?

  • A. Difficulties of writing satiric literature.
  • B. Popular topics of satire.
  • C. New philosophies emerging from satiric literature.
  • D. Reasons for the popularity of satire.
