Trắc nghiệm Tiếng Anh 11 Unit 3 Reading 

Đề bài Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer.

Going to party can be fun and enjoyable. If you are invited to a party, do call your host up early to inform him/her of whether you are going. If you want to bring someone who has not been invited along with you, you should ask for permission first. Remember to dress appropriately for the party. You will stick out like a sore thumb if you are dressed formally whereas everyone else is in T-shirt and jeans. If you are not sure what to wear, do ask your host.

During the party you may perhaps like to help your host by offering to serve drinks or wash the dishes. Your host would certainly appreciate these efforts. If you happen to be in a party you do not know anyone, do not try to monopolize the host's attention. This is inconsiderate since your host has many people to attend to and can not spend all his/ her time with you. Instead, learn to mingle with others at the party. You could try breaking the ice by introducing yourself to someone who is friendly-looking.

Before you leave the party, remember to thank your host first. If you have the time, you could even offer to help your host clean up the place.

Đề bài Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.

REMEMBER?

Your mind's ability to bring back experiences you have had is your memory. There are two kinds of remembering, recall and recognition. For instance, you may not be able to recall the poem you read yesterday in class, but if you see it again, you will know it instantly because you recognize it.

Some few people have 'total recall,' often spoken of as photographic memory. A person with total recall can recite a whole page of a book he has read only once, or play a musical composition after hearing it once. This is very unusual, however, and most people have difficulty in remembering even names they heard the day before. This is not because most people lack the ability to remember, but because they had not paid much attention to what they heard. They felt no personal reasons to remember. Having a personal reason for remembering is one of the most important factors in a good memory.

When you have a strong reason for remembering, concentrate as you read or listen, and try to connect the new information to things you I already know. A detail is easy to remember when it fits into a whole that makes sense. If you understand the entire history lesson before you try to remember any particular dates, your memory may surprise you.

Question 6: While not directly stated, it may be inferred from the article that ________.

A. details are more easily remembered by fitting them into a whole

B. recall and recognition are the same thing

C. wanting to do a thing is very important to being able to do it

D. if he will try hard enough, one man can remember as well as Mother

Giải thích: Nếu anh ấy sẽ cố gắng đủ, một người đàn ông có thể nhớ như Thánh.

A. people who can remember whole pages

B. people who can't remember names

C. our memory and how to improve it

Question 8: A person with photographic memory is ________.

A. can only remember things if he looks at a photograph

B. can remember every detail of what he sees or hears

C. can be found in mental hospitals

D. brings his camera everywhere he goes

Đáp án: B

Giải thích: Some few people have 'total recall,' often spoken of as photographic memory. A person with total recall can recite a whole page of a book he has read only once, or play a musical composition after hearing it once.

Dịch: Một số người có 'toàn bộ hồi tưởng', thường được gọi là bộ nhớ ảnh. Một người có toàn bộ hồi tưởng có thể đọc thuộc cả một trang của cuốn sách mà anh ta chỉ đọc một lần hoặc chơi một tác phẩm âm nhạc sau khi nghe nó một lần.

Question 9: One way to improve our memory is ________

A. to ask other people to repeat something you want to remember.

B. to have a camera with you all the time

C. to concentrate on what you hear or read

D. to learn everything by heart

Đáp án: C

Giải thích: This is not because most people lack the ability to remember, but because they had not paid much attention to what they heard.

Dịch: Điều này không phải vì hầu hết mọi người thiếu khả năng ghi nhớ, mà vì họ đã không chú ý nhiều đến những gì họ nghe được.
