I. 	LISTEN AND FILL IN THE MISSING WORDS. ( 2 points )
Have you ever had a day in your life when everything can go wrong and you can gat into trouble at every move? Unfortunately, I had one such day a few weeks ago. 
It was a Friday. When I woke up, it was 7 a.m. The sun was already shining brightly. I had to be at the bus-stop at the latest 7.15 to reach school by 7.30 a.m. I rushed to the bathroom for a quick wash and turn on the tap. There was no water, it was dry! However, I managed with a bucket of water, which my mother had left there the previous night. I quickly dressed myself up and slipped out of my house without mother’s knowledge. She would be angry if she knew I got up late.
II. 	READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH AND DO THE TASKS BELOW. 
People everywhere celebrate the New Year. It is the time to say goodbye to the past and to think about new beginnings. In many countries, people get together with family and friends on December 31st to eat, drink, dance, and welcome January 1st at midnight. In many Western countries people make changes in their lives over the coming year, such as to lose weight, get a new job, or learn a new skill. In many Asian countries, people also celebrate the Lunar New Year, usually in late January or early February. People spend time with family and eat special foods.
Lunar New Year, or Tet, is also Vietnam’s main holiday. It is the grandest and most important occasion in the year which falls sometimes between 19th January and 20th February on Western calendar. Tet marks the beginning of spring. Tet’s preparations and celebrations used to spread over months, but nowadays the holiday is much shorter. On Tet holiday, vietnamese people usually make the special foods such as, Banh Chung, which is made from sticky rice, green beans and fatty pork; and Mut, which is candied fruit such as sugared apples, plums, or tomatoes. On the first day of Tet, people visit other family members or friends, and they exchange New Year’s wishes. And children usually receive their “lucky money” inside red envelopes. Many people often go to pagoda to pray for a happy year for themselves and their family . . .
