READING COMPREHENSION
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.
Doctors
When most people are ill with a non-life threatening condition they
will most often see a General
Practitioner, a GP, also called a Family Doctor. These doctors
generally work in the local
community in surgeries rather than in hospitals, so they are
convenient for people to see for a
consultation. However, other GPs can work in a very wide range of
areas, such as in hospitals, in
education and for insurance companies.
As the name suggests, GPs are doctors that do not have a specialty,
such as a brain surgeon or cancer
specialist: they are able to diagnose and treat all the possible diseases
and problem that one of their
patients might have. They can treat and manage most illnesses and
perform some minor surgeries
in their practice. Then for more serious cases they will refer the
patient to a specialist that will work
in a hospital.
If you are ill and need to see a GP you will normally need to make an
appointment. Sometimes you
can just walk into the surgery and see a doctor, but that is not very
likely as GPs are normally very
busy and all their appointment times will be fully booked. Often you
have to wait several hours if
not at least one of two days before you can get an appointment with a
GP. If you are too ill to wait
you have to go to a hospital and visit the accident and emergency
department.
GPs also make house-calls. These are when the GP comes to your
house to treat you or see a patient.
Most often a GP has to make house-calls to see elderly people who
cannot get to the surgery easily.
They might be ill and need to doctor to give them medicine or it could
be that the GP just want to
check on them and make sure that they are ok.
If you are ill, the doctor will normally prescribe you some medicine
and tell you to go away for a
few days before you go back and visit them again if you have not
started to get better. The GP will
also explain how you can have a better lifestyle that could prevent
you from becoming ill in the first
place. They will normally recommend that you stop smoking
cigarettes (if you do), not to drink too
much alcohol and to get exercise. Once you have your prescription
you will need to visit a pharmacy
to get the medicine the doctor prescribed you.
31. What is the difference between a specialist and a GP?
(A)
(B)
(C)
(D)
There is no difference, they are both doctors.
The GP normally works in a hospital and the specialist works in a
surgery.
A GP can treat patients with many different illnesses, while the
specialist focuses on one
area only.
You need to be referred to a GP but not to a specialist.ThS. Lý

Archaeology
R = Reporter, A = Archaeologist
R: I believe archaeologists discovered this pyramid in 1978.
A: That’s right. But we haven’t excavated everything yet. There’s still
a lot to do.
R: Where are we standing now?
A: We’re near the north wall of the pyramid.
R: And why have you brought me here?
A: Well, recently we discovered this box in the ground which tells us
a lot about the Aztecs.
R: Yes, I can see that it’s full of objects. What are they?
A: Some of them are pots or plates. They used them for cooking.
R: I see. And what else is in there?
A: There were some small pieces of gold and a precious blue stone
called jade, but we’ve taken
them out now. The Aztecs used to do a lot of business so these types
of stones were important. We
also found some small statues which had religious importance. And
also there were knives. The
Aztecs used to sacrifice animals—and even other humans—to their
gods, so the knives are probably
for sacrifices.
R: Did you find any bodies? ThS. Lý Công Khanh

A: Actually, yes. The skeleton of a dog, but it wasn’t a sacrifice. It
wore a beautiful collar so it was

important in some way. Maybe the owner used him for hunting.
