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 71 to 75.
It was a Devonshire farmer called Ben Jesty, who lived more than two hundred years ago, who began
the development of vaccination as a method of protecting people against many diseases. In 1774
there was a severe outbreak of the disease smallpox in his local village. He already knew of the
traditional belief that an attack of cowpox gave people protection against smallpox and he saw proof
of this at this time. Two of his farm workers had previously developed cowpox sores on their hands
through milking infected cows and had then nursed their own families through the smallpox outbreak
without catching the disease themselves.
Trang 5/7 - M thi 132

Jesty had already had cowpox, but his wife and their two young children had not. Concerned for
their safety, he scratched their arms with a large needle and then put fluid from the cowpox sores on
an infected cow into these scratches. Although the Jesty family were criticized by local people who
thought that this experiment' was morally wrong, they never caught smallpox.
But the real breakthrough came some twenty years later in 1796 when Edward Jenner, an English
country doctor, made the first scientific approaches to the subject of protection against disease by
vaccination methods. His experiments proved the value of vaccination with material from cowpox
sores, and he also found that using material from an infected human on another human produced
only a small sore at the spot where the treatment had been carried out and very few other signs of
the disease.
It was at about this time, too, that the now familiar name 'vaccine' for the material used in the
process of 'vaccination' - from the Latin name for cowpox, 'vaccinia' (the Latin 'Vacca' means cow'! came into use.
Tenner's vaccination techniques spread across the world faster than the disease itself. Napoleon
had his troops vaccinated and in Russia the first child to be vaccinated was given the name 'Vaccinof'.
President Jefferson of the United States said in a letter to Tenner, 'Future nations will know by history
only that the terrible disease of smallpox existed and that it has been destroyed by you.' Forwardlooking words indeed! In 1980, the World Health Assembly officially declared that smallpox had
completely disappeared from the world.
Cu 71: What important thing did Ben Jesty realize?
A. Cows did not catch smallpox.
B. There was no difference between cowpox and smallpox.
C. Farm workers often caught cowpox.
D. people who had had cowpox did not catch smallpox.
Cu 72: The local people thought that what Jesty did was
A. sensible.
B. foolish.
C. scientific.
Cu 73: Why did Edward Jenner become famous ?
A. He started the development of vaccination.
B. He proved that vaccination worked.
C. He travelled round the world vaccinating people.
D. He persuaded most people in Europe to be vaccinated.
Cu 74: Jenner's techniques were
A. adopted very rapidly throughout the world.
B. successful in getting rid of smallpox in his lifetime.
C. too advanced for people to accept at the time.
D. neglected for almost two hundred years.
Cu 75: Why did the word 'vaccine' come into use?
A. 'Vaccine' was the traditional country name for smallpox.
B. The earliest 'vaccine' was used to protect cows.
C. The first child to be treated with a 'vaccine' was called Vaccinof.
D. The Latin name for cowpox was 'vaccinia'.

D. wicked.

Trang 6/7 - M thi 132

Airline pilots have high social status and earn a great deal of money. Air hostesses have an uncertain
status and earn little. For those recently qualified, the basic pay in some airlines is as little as 300 a
month, and there are always some who will describe them as 'glorified waitresses in the sky'. This is
little to balance against the possibility of a hijack or a disaster.
So why do they do it?
I went to see Diane Humphreys. Senior Hostess with Dan-Air at Manchester Airport, to try to find
the answer to this question. Mrs Humphreys is responsible for all Dan-Air's cabin staff based at the
airport and is also involved in their selection. She has had the job for 16 years. Before that she was an
ordinary air hostess for six years.
One reason why air hostesses don't get over-anxious about flying may be that they're so busy,
before, during and after a flight. I asked Mrs Humphreys to tell me what a typical summer timetable
for a hostess would be. She said that four or five flights a week during die summer is not uncommon.
'On a Monday morning, a hostess might have an early morning flight; perhaps at 1 a.m. She has to
check in 1/2 hours before the flight - maybe at half past five - that might mean leaving home at 4
a.m. Before the flight, hostesses have to prepare the cabin and toilets and make sure that the food
and drinks are aboard. Dan-Air don't do long-distance flights, just short or medium distance ones,
and so there are no overnight stopovers unless weather conditions prevent take-off or landing, or the
plane develops technical problems. There's a 45-minute turn-around interval, when the hostesses
have to prepare the plane for the return flight. Depending on where you're flying, this can make it a
12-hour day; with delays it can even be 16 hours.
During the flight you've got no time to relax - the safety instructions have to be demonstrated and
the food and drinks served. You're always busy. So one day you might have an early morning light;
the next an afternoon flight; the day after you might be on relief duty and have to be ready to work if
someone else becomes ill or there is an emergency. This means that you have to stay near a phone
all the time and be no more than an hour and a half from the airport.'
Cu 76: In her job Diane Humphreys
A. is in charge or Dan-Air's air hostesses world-wide.
B. looks after aircrews when they are in Manchester.
C. helps with the appointment of Manchester's Dan-Air cabin staff.
D. supervises ail Manchester Airport staff.
Cu 77: In summer Dan-Air's hostesses usually work
A. six days a week of 1216 hours each.
B. relief days after night flights.
C. alternate days on and off duty.
D. completely variable hours each week.
Cu 78: When can air hostesses relax?
A. when the plane is in the air
B. never at all
C. when the plane has landed
D. before a flight takes off
Cu 79: What does being on relief duty involve?
A. remaining near a telephone all the time
B. staying at the airport for the day
C. preparing for a night flight during the day
D. telephoning the airport every 1 1/2 hours
Cu 80: According to this passage, the job of an air hostess is
A. glamorous
B. boring
C. tiring
D. well paid
