I. Read the passage carefully, and do the tasks that follow. High school students from Southeast Asia protect the environment with inventions that challenge the present situation. They presented their research at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF). The team from Thailand presented its research on using fish scales to create plastic ware items such as bowls and plates, with no trace of fish odor in 2011. The team also found out that the material completely breaks down in about 28 days when buried in soil, and does not harm creatures that live in the dirt. In comparison, conventional plastic products release toxins during the manufacturing process and during disposal. The Vietnamese team proposed using solar energy and vacuum techniques to power the desalination process in 2012. Conventional desalination methods are expensive affairs as they tend to consume vast amounts of electricity and fuel. In contrast, solar energy is an inexhaustible and renewable energy source. The Indonesian team built a “Green Refrigerant Box” in 2014 that, instead of running on electricity, used a hand-operated vacuum pump made from plastic soft drink bottles. The idea was formed because the students’ hometown in rural South Sumatra frequently experiences power cuts, constantly shutting down electrical appliances. Bio-waste materials such as mangosteen skin can be used as a substance to dye cotton fabric, together with onion skin extract. The project of Malaysian students in 2014 not only replaced the usage of hazardous chemical dyes with bio-waste material, but also helped recycle bio-waste itself. Task 1: What is the most suitable title of the whole passage? A. Unusual but very clever inventions from Southeast Asian high school students B. Changing the world with your awesome inventions in the upcoming ISEF C. Exciting inventions from a new generation of student inventors around the world. Task 2: Find the words or expressions in the text which have the following meanings. 1. a smell, often one that is unpleasant 2. living things 3. the removal of salt from sea water 4. that cannot be used up 5. a substance taken from a plant... 6. dangerous

Lớp 10 - Năm thứ nhất ở cấp trung học phổ thông, năm đầu tiên nên có nhiều bạn bè mới đến từ những nơi xa hơn vì ngôi trường mới lại mỗi lúc lại xa nhà mình hơn. Được biết bên ngoài kia là một thế giới mới to và nhiều điều thú vị, một trang mới đang chò đợi chúng ta.
