Section 2: (10 points)There are 10 errors in the following passage. Find and
correct them.
A great majority of adults in the industrial world – in fact, about 90 per cent –
will be married some time in their lives. Of those who do not, some may choose
to remain single, but others will have no choice. An alarming number who marry
will divorce, but this is because marriage itself has lost its attraction – instead
people give up particular relationships and try back. For example, of four out of
ten American marriages that possibly end up divorce, 80 per cent are preludes to
further unions. Every society /səˈsaɪəti/ has its own definition of what a perfect
marriage it should be. In the Western world, it seems that a husband
/ˈhʌzbənd/ and wife have a perfect marriage if they love each other, have no
other sex partner, display trust, loyalty and intimacy, confide in each other, show
mutual respect /rɪˈspekt/, are willing to listen to their partner’s /ˈpɑːtnə(r)/
concern /kənˈsɜːn/ and agree on their children’s up- bringing. However, from
time to time the balance of social expectations shifts. For example, a study
carried out in 1986 showed that 74 per cent of American couples rating ‘equality
in the relationship’ an important component of marriage. We can be fair sure that
their great-grandparents (and particularly their great-grandfathers) did not place
the same value in this.

Section 4: (10 points) Give the correct form of the words in brackets.
The advances made by humans have made us the dominant species
/ˈspiːʃiːz/ (n.pl cũng là species) on our planet. However, several eminent
scientists are concerned that we have become too successful, that our way of life
is putting an (1. PRECEDE) strain on the Earth's ecosystems and threatening our
future as a species. We are confronting environmental problems that are more
taxing than ever before, some of them seemingly (2. SOLVE). Many of the Earth's
crises are (3. PERSIST) and inexorably linked. Pollution is an obvious example of
this affecting our air, water and soil.
The air is polluted by (4. EMIT) produced by cars and industry. Through acid
rain and greenhouse gases these same exhaust fumes can have a devastating
impact on our climate. Climate change is (5. ARGUE) the greatest environmental
challenge facing our planet with increased storms, floods, drought and species
losses predicted. This will inevitably have a negative impact on (6. DIVERSIFY)
and thus our ecosystem.
The soil is contaminated by factories and power stations which can leave
heavy metals /ˈmetl/ in the soil. Other human activities such as the (7.
DEVELOP) of land and the clearing of trees also take their toll on the quality of
our soil; deforestation has been shown to cause soil (8. ERODE). Certain farming
practices can also pollute the land though the use of chemical pesticides and
fertilizers. This contamination in turn affects our rivers and waterways and
damages life there. The chemicals enter our food chain, moving from fish to
mammals to us. Our crops are also grown on land that is far from (9. SPOIL).
Affected species include the polar bear, so not even the Arctic is immune.
Reducing waste and clearing up pollution costs money. Yet it is our quest for
wealth that generates so much of the refuse. There is an urgent need to find a way
of life that is less damaging to the Earth. This is not easy, but it is vital, because
pollution is (10. PERVADE) and often life-threatening.
1. Unprecedented: chưa từng xảy ra, chưa từng được biết trước đó
2. insoluble/insolvable: (vấn đề, bí mật) ko thể giải quyết, ko thể giải thích
2. persistent
4. emissions
5. arguably
6. biodiversity: hệ sinh thái
7. overdevelopment
8. erosion
9. unspoiled / unspoilt
10. Pervasive
- under great strain
- put a strain on: đặt áp lực lên, gây rắc rối, gây vấn đề cho
- crisis => n.pl: crises (nhớ nha, ko biết đâu cho vào phần sửa lỗi)
- industry: /ˈɪndəstri/ >< industrial /ɪnˈdʌstriəl/
- take a heavy toll on sb/st / take its toll on sb/st: gây ra ảnh h ưởng x ấu, gây

Section 3: (15 points): Read the following passage and choose the best
answers:
They are just four, five and six years old right now, but already they are
making criminologists nervous. They are growing up, too frequently, in abusive
or broken homes, with little adult supervision and few positive role models. Left
to themselves, they spend much of their time hanging out on the streets or
soaking up violent TV shows. By the year 2005 they will be teenagers–a group
that tends to be, in the view of Northeastern University criminologist James Alan
Fox, “temporary sociopaths–impulsive and immature.” If they also have easy
access to guns and drugs, they can be extremely dangerous.
For all the heartening news offered by recent crime statistics, there is an
ominous flip side. While the crime rate is dropping for adults, it is soaring for
teens. Between 1990 and 1994, the rate at which adults age 25 and older
committed homicides declined 22%; yet the rate jumped 16% for youths between
14 and 17, the age group that in the early ’90s supplanted 18- to 24-year-olds as
the most crime-prone. And that is precisely the age group that will be booming in
the next decade. There are currently 39 million children under 10 in the U.S.,
more than at any time since the 1950s. “This is the calm before the crime storm,”
says Fox. “So long as we fool ourselves in thinking that we’re winning the war
against crime, we may be blindsided by this bloodbath of teenage violence that is
lurking in the future.”
Demographics don’t have to be destiny, but other social trends do little to
contradict the dire predictions. Nearly all the factors that contribute to youth
crime–single-parent households, child abuse, deteriorating inner-city schools–are
getting worse. At the same time, government is becoming less, not more,
interested in spending money to help break the cycle of poverty and crime. All of
which has led John J. DiIulio Jr., a professor of politics and public affairs at
Princeton, to warn about a new generation of “super predators,” youngsters who
are coming of age in actual and “moral poverty,” without “the benefit of parents,
teachers, coaches and clergy to teach them right or wrong and show them
unconditional love.”
Predicting a generation’s future crime patterns is, of course, risky;
especially when outside factors (Will crack use be up or down? Will gun laws be
tightened?) remain unpredictable. Michael Tonry, a professor of law and public
policy at the University of Minnesota, argues that the demographic doomsayers
are unduly alarmist. “There will be a slightly larger number of people relative to
the overall population who are at high risk for doing bad things, so that’s going to
have some effect,” he concedes. “But it’s not going to be an apocalyptic effect.”
Norval Morris, professor of law and criminology at the University of Chicago,
finds DiIulio’s notion of super predators too simplistic: “The human animal in
young males is quite a violent animal all over the world. The people who put forth
the theory of moral poverty lack a sense of history and comparative criminology.”
Yet other students of the inner city are more pessimistic. “All the basic
elements that spawn teenage crime are still in place, and in many cases the
indicators are worse,” says Jonathan Kozol, author of Amazing Grace, an
examination of poverty in the South Bronx. “There’s a dramatic increase of
children in foster care, and that’s a very high-risk group of kids. We’re not
creating new jobs, and we’re not improving education to suit poor people for the
jobs that exist.”
Can anything defuse the demographic time bomb? Fox urges “reinvesting in
children”: improving schools, creating after-school programs and providing other
alternatives to gangs and drugs. DiIulio, a law-and-order conservative, advocates
tougher prosecution and wants to strengthen religious institutions to instill
better values. Yet he opposes the Gingrich-led effort to make deep cuts in social
programs. “A failure to maintain existing welfare and health commitment for
kids,” he says, “is to guarantee that the next wave of juvenile predators will be
even worse than we’re dealing with today.” DiIulio urges fellow conservatives to
think of Medicaid not as a health-care program but as “an anticrime policy.”

Section 4: (15 points)
TRY IT AND SEE
In the social sciences, it is often supposed that there can be no such
thing as a controlled experiment. Think again.
A In the scientific pecking order, social scientists are usually looked down on by
their peers in the natural sciences. Natural scientists do experiments to test their
theories or, if they cannot, they try to look for natural phenomena that can act in
lieu of experiments. Social scientists, it is widely thought, do not subject their own
hypotheses to any such rigorous treatment. Worse, they peddle their untested
hypotheses to governments and try to get them turned into policies.
B Governments require sellers of new medicines to demonstrate their safety
and effectiveness. The accepted gold standard of evidence is a randomized
control trial, in which a new drug is compared with the best existing therapy (or
with a placebo, if no treatment is available). Patients are assigned to one arm or
the other of such a study at random, ensuring that the only difference between
the two groups is the new treatment. The best studies also ensure that neither
patient nor physician knows which patient is allocated to which therapy. Drug
trials must also include enough patients to make it unlikely that chance alone may
determine the result.
C But few education programs or social initiatives are evaluated in carefully
conducted studies prior to their introduction. A case in point is the 'whole-
language' approach to reading, which swept much of the English-speaking world
in the 1970s and 1980s. The whole-language theory holds that children learn to
read best by absorbing contextual clues from texts, not by breaking individual
words into their component parts and reassembling them (a method known as
phonics). Unfortunately, the educational theorists who pushed the whole-
language notion so successfully did not wait for evidence from controlled
randomized trials before advancing their claims. Had they done so, they might
have concluded, as did an analysis of 52 randomized studies carried out by the US
National Reading Panel in 2000, that effective reading instruction requires
phonics.
D To avoid the widespread adoption of misguided ideas, the sensible thing is to
experiment first and make policy later. This is the idea behind a trial of
restorative justice which is taking place in the English courts. The experiment will
include criminals who plead guilty to robbery. Those who agree to participate
will be assigned randomly either to sentencing as normal or to participation in a
conference in which the offender comes face-to-face with his victim and discusses
how he may make emotional and material restitution. The purpose of the trial is
to assess whether such restorative justice limits re-offending. If it does, it might
be adopted more widely.
E The idea of experimental evidence is not quite as new to the social sciences as
sneering natural scientists might believe. In fact, randomized trials and
systematic reviews of evidence were introduced into the social sciences long
before they became common in medicine. An apparent example of random
allocation is a study carried out in 1927 of how to persuade people to vote in
elections. And randomized trials in social work were begun in the 1930s and
1940s. But enthusiasm later waned. This loss of interest can be attributed, at least
in part, to the fact that early experiments produced little evidence of positive
outcomes. Others suggest that much of the opposition to experimental evaluation
stems from a common philosophical malaise among social scientists, who doubt
the validity of the natural sciences, and therefore reject the potential of
knowledge derived from controlled experiments. A more pragmatic factor
limiting the growth of evidence-based education and social services may be
limitations on the funds available for research.
F Nevertheless, some 11,000 experimental studies are known in the social
sciences (compared with over 250,000 in the medical literature). Randomized
trials have been used to evaluate the effectiveness of driver-education programs,
job training schemes, classroom size, psychological counseling for post-traumatic
stress disorder and increased investment in public housing. And where they are
carried out, they seem to have a healthy dampening effect on otherwise rosy
interpretations of the observations.
G The problem for policymakers is often not too few data, but what to make of
multiple and conflicting studies. This is where a body called the Campbell
Collaboration comes into its own. This independent non-profit organization is
designed to evaluate existing studies, in a process known as a systematic review.
This means attempting to identify every relevant trial of a given question
(including studies that have never been published), choosing the best ones using
clearly defined criteria for quality, and combining the results in a statistically
valid way. An equivalent body, the Cochrane Collaboration, has produced more
than 1,004 such reviews in medical fields. The hope is that rigorous review
standards will allow Campbell, like Cochrane, to become a trusted and
authoritative source of information.
