Câu 16. The last two decades have seen enormous changes in the way people's lives are affected by IT. Twenty years ago, few people had access to a computer while today most people use them at work, home or school and use of e-mail and the Internet is an every day event. These developments have brought many benefits to our lives. E-mail makes communication much easier and more immediate. This has numerous benefits for business, commerce, and education. The World Wide Web means that information on every conceivable subject is now available to us. Clearly, for many people this has made life much easier and more convenient. However, not all the effects of the new technology have been beneficial. Many people feel that the widespread use of e-mail is destroying traditional forms of communication such as letter writing, telephone and face-to-face conversation. In addition, the huge size of the Web means it is almost impossible to control and regulate. This has led to many concerns regarding children accessing unsuitable websites. In conclusion, developments in IT have brought many benefits, yet I believe developments relating to new technology in the future are likely to produce many negative effects that will need to be addressed very carefully.

Câu 21. Perhaps the most creative use of language in newspaper is in the advertisements. The writers have to catch and (21) _________ the reader’s attention. They often (22) _________ this with a play on words. You read the words and understand them one way and then suddenly you (23) _________ that another interpretation is possible. Through the ambiguity the advertisement has caught your attention - and the advertiser (24) _________ you’ll buy the product. Under the picture of a new car are the words “Not another family saloon.” The dual interpretation of that phrase is dependent on how it is pronounced. Misread it by putting the stress on the second word thereby projecting a message the advertiser would clearly not want, and this (25) __________ you look again and pay conscious attention to the alternative message. Advertising copy writers frequently (26) __________ use of idioms. One advertisement showed girls wearing different coloured jeans, but none the traditional blue ones. Underneath were the words “Jeanius is (27) __________ ideas out of the blue”. On one level that (28) _________ the jeans are not ordinary blue jeans but ones in a range of colours. But there is also the suggestion that these new jeans are a sudden piece of inspiration, a stroke of genius. “Out of the blue” is an idiom which means “quite unexpectedly” and genius often (29) __________ getting a brilliant idea suddenly. That’s very clever, but it’s not quite the end of it, because it’s not genius they are (30) __________ about, but jeanius. That is another play on words; the product they are selling, after all, is a pair of jeans.
