Q1: frame
Woman: That should be fine. And some of them are in a frame - should I take them out before I send them?
Man: Yes, please, we can’t copy them otherwise. And also the photos must all be separate, they mustn’t be stuck into an album.
Q2: 195
Woman: ...So can you give me an idea of how much this will cost? I've got about 360 photos I think.
Man: We charge £195 for 300 to 400 photos for the basic service.
Q3: payment
Man: No, we won’t need anything until we’ve actually copied the pictures. Then we’ll let you know how much it is, and once we’ve received the payment, we'll send the parcel off to you. (parcel ở đây chính là bưu kiện chứa đơn hàng đã hoàn thành – chính là từ khóa completed order trong đề bài)
Q4: Grandparents
Man: We’ll save each group in a different folder on the disk and If you like, you can suggest a name for each folder.
Woman: So I could have one called 'Grandparents’ for instance?
Q5: colour
Woman: And do you do anything besides scan the photos? Like, can you make any improvements?
Man: Yes, in the standard service each photo is checked, and we can sometimes touch up the colour a bit, or improve the contrast.
Q6: hand
Woman: And some of the photos are actually quite fragile — they won’t get damaged in the process, will they?
Man: No, if any look particularly fragile, we'd do them bv hand. We do realise how Q6
precious these old photos can be.
Q7: background (phông nền của tấm ảnh)
Man: if you want to remove an object from a photo, or maybe alter (v – thay đổi) the background, we can do that.
Q8: focus
Woman: I’ve got a few that aren't properly in focus. Can you do anything to make that better?
Man: No, I’m afraid that’s one thing we can't do.
Be in focus: dc lấy nét; 1 bức ảnh khi chụp lại được lấy nét rõ rang, nếu ko lấy nét chính xác thì hình ảnh chính cần chụp sẽ bị mờ
Q9: 10 days
Woman: how long will it all take?
Man: We aim to get the copying done in ten days.
Q10: plastic
Man: If you’ve got a strong cardboard box, that’s best. We’ve found that plastic ones sometimes break in the post.Không dùng hộp nhựa vì sẽ bị vỡ trong quá trình vận chuyển bằng đường bưu điện
Choose the correct letter, A, B or C.
Minster Park
Q11: C
It was commissioned by a businessman, Neville Richards, and intended as his family home, but he died before it was completed (loại trừ đáp án B vì ngôi nhà chưa xây xong thì ông chủ đã qua đời). His heir chose to sell it to the local council, who turned it into offices. (chốt dc đáp án C). A later plan to convert it into a tourist information centre didn’t come about, through lack of money (loại bỏ đáp án A)
Q12: B
The lower school will move to new buildings that will be constructed on the main site. Developers will construct houses on the existing lower school site. Hiểu đơn giản: Lower school và Main site là 2 khu vực riêng biệt. Sắp tới nhiều tòa nhà mới sẽ được xây ở Main site và toàn bộ khu lower school sẽ chuyển sang đó, còn chỗ lower school hiện tại sẽ để xây houses.
Q13: A
The canteen is always very busy throughout the lunch period - in fact it's often full to capacity, because a lot of our pupils like the food that’s on offer there => (loại trừ đáp án C). But there’s only one serving point, so most pupils have to wait a considerable time to be served => (chốt dc đáp án A). This is obviously unsatisfactory, as they may have hardly finished their lunch before afternoon lessons start. => (loại trừ đáp án B, chưa hề nhắc đến thay đổi timetable)
Q14: A
one thing we ask you to do, to help in the smooth running of the Food Hall, is to discuss with your children each morning which type of food they want to eat that day so they can go straight to the
relevant serving point. => (chốt dc đáp án A, chọn trước loại đồ ăn để chủ động đi đến nơi serving point tương ứng) There won’t be any junk food - everything on offer will be healthy => (loại trừ đáp án C, bố mẹ không cần khuyên, ở đó đều là đồ ăn healthy hết) - and there’s no change to the current system of paying for lunches by topping up your child’s electronic payment card online. => (loại trừ đáp án B, hệ thống trả tiền vẫn như cũ, ko có gì thay đổi)
Q15: C
You may be wondering what will happen to the old canteen. We’ll still have tables and chairs in there, and pupils can eat food from the Food Hall or lunch they’ve brought from home.
What comment does the speaker make about each of the following serving points in the Food Hall? Choose THREE answers from the box and write the correct letter, A-D, next to Questions 16-18.
Comments
A pupils help to plan menus
B only vegetarian food
C different food every week
D daily change in menu
Food available at serving points in Food Hall
World Adventures 16……………
Street Life 17……………
Speedy Italian 18……………
Q16: D
One serving point we call World Adventures. This will serve a different country’s cuisine each dav. maybe Chinese one day and Lebanese the next.
Q17: A
Street Life is also international, with food from three particular cultures. We'll ask pupils to make suggestions
Q18: B
The Speedy Italian serving point will cater particularly for the many pupils who don't eat meat or fish
Choose TWO letters, A-E.
Q19 and 20: C and B
OK, that’s all on the new Food Hall. Now after-school lessons. These are very popular with pupils, particularly swimming - in fact there’s a waiting list for lessons.
Cycling Is another favourite, => (loại trừ 2 đáp án A và D, vì 2 môn này vốn đã được học sinh ưa chuộng, ko phải môn mới) …
As you know, we have a well-equipped performance centre, and we’re going to start drama classes => (chốt đáp án C acting = diễn xuất, drama = kịch) in there, too. Pupils will be able to join in just for fun or work up to taking part in a play - we hope to put on at least one a year. We already teach a number of pupils to use the sound and lighting systems in the centre => (loại trừ đáp án E, đã dạy môn này rồi). And a former pupil has given a magnificent grand piano to the school, so a few pupils will be able to learn at the school instead of going to the local college, as many of them do at the moment. => (chốt đáp án B)
Assignment on sleep and dreams
Q21: B
Luke: … if we remembered everything, we might get mixed up about what actually happened and what we dreamed. So it’s a sort of protection
Q22: A
Susie: … I've read is that for each dream that comes true, we have thousands that don’t, but we don’t notice those, we don’t even remember them. We just remember the ones where something in the real world, like a view or an action, happens to trigger a dream memory.
Luke:Right. So it’s just a coincidence really.
Q23: C
Susie: There was an experiment some students did here last term to see at what age kids should stop having naps. But they didn't really find an answer => (nghi ngờ đáp án C) They spent a lot of time working out the most appropriate methodology => (loại trừ đáp án B), but the results didn’t seem to show any obvious patterns. (thêm 1 thông tin khẳng định đáp án C)
Q24: C
Luke: Last time I had problems with the final stage, where we had to describe and justify how successful we thought we’d been. I struggled a bit with the action plan too. (Luke thấy khó với C và B)
Susie:I was OK with the planning, but I got marked down for the self-assessment as well. And I had big problems with the statistical stuff, that’s where I really lost marks. (Sussie thấy khó với A và C) => chốt C

Q25: history
Luke: Let’s use people from a different department. What about history? Susie:Yes, they might have interesting dreams! Or literature students? Luke:I don’t really know any.
Susie:OK, forget that idea.
Q26: paper
Susie: But in this case, paper might be better as they’ll be doing it straight after they wake up.
Q27: humans
Luke: And we’ll have to check the ethical guidelines for this sort of research. Susie:Mm, because our experiment involves humans, so there are special regulations.
Q28: stress
Luke: Yes, I had a look at those for another assignment l did. There’s a whole section on risk assessment, and another section on making sure they aren’t put under any unnecessary stress.
Q29: graph
Susie: Then when we’ve collected all our data we have to analyse it and calculate the
correlation between our two variables, that’s time sleeping and number of dreams and then present our results visually in a graph
Q30:
Luke:Right. And the final thing is to think about our research and evaluate it.

Health benefits of dance
Recent findings:
Benefits of dance for older people:
Benefits of Zumba:
– women suffering from 39…………….. benefited from doing Zumba.
– Zumba became a 40…………….. for the participants.
Q31: creativity
In another experiment, university researchers at York and Sheffield took a group of students and sent each of them into a lab where music was played for five minutes. Each had to choose from three options: to sit and listen quietly to the music, to cycle on an exercise bike while they listened, or to get up and dance. All were given cognitive tasks to perform before and after. The result showed that those who chose to dance showed much more creativity when doing problem-solving tasks.
Q32: therapy
Doctor Lovatt at the University of Hertfordshire believes dance could be a very useful way to help people suffering from mental health problems. He thinks dance should be prescribed as therapy to help people overcome issues such as depression.
Q33: fitness
It’s well established that dance is a good way of encouraging adolescent girls to take exercise but what about older people? Studies have shown that there are enormous benefits for people in their sixties and beyond. One of the great things about dance is that there are no barriers to participation. Anyone can have a go, even those whose standard of fitness is quite low.
Q34: balance
And there’s plenty of evidence which suggests that dancing lowers the risk of falls, which could result in a broken hip, for example, by helping people to improve their balance.
Q35: brain
For older people, this kind of activity is especially important because it forces their brain to process things more quickly and to retain more information.
Q36: motivation
Participants report feeling less tired and having greater motivation to be more active and do daily activities such as gardening or walking to the shops or a park
Q37: isolation
This helps to develop new relationships and can reduce older people’s sense of isolation, which is a huge problem in many countries.
Q38: calories
John Porcari, a professor of exercise and sport science at the University of Wisconsin, analysed a group of women who were Zumba regulars and found that a class lasting 40 minutes burns about 370 calories. This Is similar to moderately intense exercises like step aerobics or kickboxing.
Q39: obesity
A study in the American Journal of Health Behavior showed that when women with obesity did Zumba three times a week for 16 weeks, they lost an average of 1.2 kilos and lowered their percentage of body fat by 1%.
Q40: habit
More importantly, the women enjoyed the class so much that they made it a habit and continued to attend classes at least once a week.
