IX. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct

Did you know that on average we forget about 80% of the medical information a doctor
might give us? This fascinating information came to light as a result of a study carried out by
Utrecht University. What is even more interesting is that almost half of what we think we
remember is wrong.
Why do you think this is? Well, it’s not as complicated as you may think. You see, going
to the doctor fills most people with anxiety and when we are really nervous and stressed we
are more likely to focus on the diagnosis rather than the treatment. Therefore, we know what
is wrong with as but have no idea what to do about it.
Here are some good tips to keep in mind when seeing a doctor. Always write down any
important information. What would be even better is, if your doctor agreed, to record your
consultation. This way, you can replay the advice at home, where you are more likely to
absorb it. If you believe the situation is serious or you’re really worried, seek the help of a
family member. Just ask them to accompany you to listen in. This way you can be absolutely
sure about what the doctor has told you and avoid falling into the same trap that most people
do.

In the past, getting recipes and cooking tips was a complicated process. A person had to
go to the store and buy a cook book, or get recipes from friends. Fortunately, the Internet has
changed all that. Now, if you want to find a recipe for lasagne or Cobb salad, you just search
online. It couldn’t be simpler.
Cooking blogs are a great source of information because they are free and there are so
many of them. They are also nice because they give all different kinds of ideas. The problems
with blogs is that because we don’t know who is writing them, we need to use with caution.
When you are looking at a new blog, you don’t know if the writer knows what he or she is
talking about.
We’d like to introduce two popular cooking blogs. The first is called Smitten Kitchen.
This website is run by a family living in New York City. It focuses on food that doesn’t
require many ingredients. If you want to make food that is simple but wonderful, then this is
the site for you. It offers hundreds and hundreds of recipes, divided into categories. You will
be amazed at how many there are.
Wednesday Chef is another great cooking blog. It is run by a writer who lives in Berlin.
This blog also offers many recipes, along with recommendations for great restaurants in
Berlin, and advice for people who want to start their own blogs. Wednesday Chef has great
pictures of its food, as well as interesting pictures of Berlin. The blog got its name because in
the past, newspapers published their food articles on Wednesdays.
There are a lot of cooking blogs on the Internet, and most of them are pretty good. Go
online and check some of them out. You might be surprised at how much they can help you
improve your cooking.

do not like? Do not make a fuss about it. Simply eat what you can and hope that no one
notices it. Be sure to compliment the cook on the food that you are enjoying. Do not leave
immediately after dinner, but do not overstay your welcome, either. The next day, call or

From the 20th to the 21st century, there have been significant changes in the majority of
countries around the world. Substantial differences are evident between the way we live
today, and the way we lived a century ago. Vietnam is no exception although there are some
aspects of life in Vietnam that are similar to the way of life of the twentieth century.
Living in Vietnam today differs greatly from the lifestyle of 100 years ago. People in the
past mainly worked in agriculture whereas today there are significantly fewer people working
in this sector of the economy. These days, by comparison, people are more likely to be
employed in manufacturing and tourism than in the rice fields. Moreover, Vietnam, which
was traditionally agricultural, is transforming into an entirely different country. While
agriculture is still an important component of the Vietnamese economy, other enterprises are
accounting for an increasing amount of economic activity.
However, along with the differences, similarities also exist. The Vietnamese have kept
many of characteristics of their forefathers. The Vietnamese people are as friendly today as
they were in the past. This is best illustrated in the way they welcome foreigners. Moreover,
the determination of the people of Vietnam has not changed. The Vietnamese work
collectively and happily towards the development of their country.
To conclude, while there are differences in past and present lifestyles, there are important
similarities. Although Vietnam has changed in many ways, there always have been, and
always will be, the friendly welcoming smiles of the Vietnamese people.
