2. Read the text. Are all lottery winners happy?

(Đọc đoạn văn trên. Có phải tất cả những người thắng xổ số đều hạnh phúc không?)

Last weekend, somebody bought a lottery ticket, chose all the correct numbers and won millions. How lucky! Or maybe not. In the 1970s, scientists at the University of Illinois studied lottery winners and compared their levels of happiness with other people. The results were interesting. The winners felt delighted for a short time, but after that, their happiness returned to normal levels. A similar study by the University of California in 2008 gave the same results. They looked at lottery winners six months after their win and found completely normal levels of happiness. And for a few unlucky people, a huge lottery win was the start of major problems. Alex Toth, for example, won $13 million in 1990. He stopped working, spent the money quickly and had terrible arguments with his family and friends.

2. Read the text. Who replied to Zoe's message? When did they reply, and from where?

(Đọc bài khóa. Ai đã phản hồi tin nhắn của Zoe’s? Họ đã phản hồi khi nào, và ở đâu?)

Message in a bottle

In 1990, Zoe Lemon was on a ferry, sailing from Hull in England to Germany. She was going on holiday with her family. The journey was long and tiring and ten-year-old Zoe soon got bored. To pass the time, she decided to write a message in a bottle and drop it into the sea. 'It will be interesting if someone finds it,' she thought. Then she forgot about the bottle completely.

Twenty-three years later, she was amazed to get a reply from someone in the Netherlands. A man was walking on the beach and was surprised to find Zoe's bottle in the sand. He wrote to the address on the message, where Zoe's parents still live. Zoe was delighted, but it was also very moving for her to see her message again after twenty·three years, and she cried when she read it. 'It's astonishing that the bottle didn't break,' said Zoe. Her five-year-old son thinks it is all very exciting and wants to put a message in a bottle himself!

Tạm dịch:

Tin nhắn trong một cái chai

Vào năm 1990, Zoe Lemon ở trên một chiếc phà, đi từ Hull ở Anh đến nước Đức. Cô ấy đi nghỉ mát với gia đình của cô ấy. Chuyến đi rất dài và mệt mỏi và cô bé Zoe 10 tuổi đã sớm thấy chán. Để giết thời gian, cô ấy quyết định viết một tin nhắn, nhét vào một cái chai rồi thả nó xuống biển. Cô ấy nói rằng: “Sẽ thú vị lắm nếu có ai đó tìm thấy nó.” Sau đó cô ấy hoàn toàn quên mất về chuyện đó.

23 năm sau, cô ấy rất king ngạc khi nhận được lời phản hồi từ ai đó ở Hà Lan. Một người đàn ông đang đi bộ trên bờ biển và rất bất ngờ khi tìm thấy chai của Zoe nằm trong cát. Anh ta viết đến địa chỉ trong tin nhắn, nơi mà bố mẹ Zoe vẫn đang sống. Zoe rất vui mừng, nhưng cũng rất cảm động khi thấy lại bức tin nhắn của cô ấy sau 23 năm, và cô ấy đã khóc khi đọc nó. “Thực sự rất ngạc nhiên khi cái chai không bể”, Zoe cho biết. Đứa nhóc 5 tuổi của cô nghĩ rằng chuyện đó rất thú vị và muốn tự tay bỏ một tin nhắn vào cái chai.

1. when doctors realised Ashlyn had a medical problem?

2. what causes her condition?

3. what happened when she burned her hands?

4. why some people die from this condition?

5. how school life for Ashlyn was unusual?

A life without pain

A. All children hurt themselves from time to time. But when thirteen-year-old Ashlyn Blocker gets injured, she doesn't realise it. Once, when she burned herself, she only knew about it when she looked at her skin.

B. There was always something different about Ashlyn. As a baby, she didn't cry. When she was eight months old, her parents noticed there was some blood in her eye, so they took her to see a doctor. The doctor found a serious cut in her eye and was shocked. Why didn't the baby cry? Tests showed that Ashlyn had a very unusual medical condition: she couldn't feel any pain.

C. This condition is very rare: many people who have it die of it. Pain is a natural warning that you're ill or injured. People who can't feel pain lust don't realise they're in danger.

D. The first few years of Ashlyn's life were very difficult. She often tripped and injured herself. Once, she broke her ankle but she didn't stop running. During school breaks, one teacher watched Ashlyn all the time in the playground and they had to search for cuts. bruises or other injuries.

E. When she was five, Ashlyn's story appeared in newspapers and on TV. Scientists studied her condition and found she has a genetic disorder that means pain signals do not reach her brain. Unfortunately, at the moment, there is no hope of a cure. And, as Ashlyn knows, a life without pain is both difficult and dangerous.

Sarah_B: Tell us about pranks you played on friends or family members!

Dave338: When I was about nine years old, I bought an enormous plastic spider from a joke shop. I couldn't wait to play a prank on my sister with it. One morning, I put it in the shower just before my big sister went into the bathroom. I waited outside the door. I heard a really loud scream and my sister ran out of the bathroom. I thought it was really funny, but she was really cross when she found out, and chased me round the house. I feel bad about it now, it took her ages to get over it because she was so shocked.

Kate44: Last February, I sent my brother a Valentine's card. In the card, I wrote 'Be my Valentine! With love from ???’, and I tried to disguise my handwriting. When he opened it, he looked carefully at the writing, and I thought for a moment he realised it was from me. But there was a girl in his class who he liked, and he thought the card was from her. He seemed really pleased and he decided to ask her out, and now they're going out! Eventually, he found out she didn't send it. He immediately suspected me, so I owned up. He was a bit cross, but he forgave me because of the happy ending.

1. Read the following passage and circle True (T), False (F) or Doesn’t say (DS).

(Đọc bài khóa bên dưới và khoanh tròn Đúng (T), Sai (F) hoặc Không nhắc đến (DS).)

Be happy!

There have been lots of surveys about teenagers and happiness and they all come to different conclusions. Some surveys say that most young people are happiest when they spend time with their family. Others say it's when they're with friends. Some teenagers think that getting good marks at school and passing exams make them happy, while others feel that it's having a boyfriend or girlfriend. The problem is that there isn't just one thing that makes everyone happy, and what made you happy last week might not make you happy next week! However, there are some things that can help improve your mood when you are feeling unhappy. Experts believe that exercise can make you a happier person because it releases chemicals in your brain that are related to a feeling of pleasure. There's another surprising idea to help make you happier. Although you might think that eating chocolate is bad for you, it seems, according to some experts, to be good to eat chocolate when you're feeling sad. Of course it isn't healthy to eat too much, but chocolate releases chemicals in the same way that exercise does - and for some people it's easier and quicker than working out in the gym! It's also important to remember that you can’t be happy all the time. You can be happy for brief moments and you should value these times. And when you feel sad, go for a run or eat some chocolate - you'll soon cheer up!

1. The surveys show that teenagers and parents have different ideas about happiness. T F DS

2. The things that make us happy never change. T F DS

3. The surveys show that teenagers who do exercise are happier. T F DS

4. When we feel depressed we shouldn't eat chocolate. T F DS

5. Exercise and eating chocolate can produce similar results. T F DS

6. It’s important to value even short moments of happiness. T F DS

(Đọc văn bản đối diện. Bạn có nghĩ rằng hai chị em sinh đôi có một mối liên hệ đặc biệt hay có những lời giải thích nào khác? Đưa ra lý do cho ý kiến của bạn.)

A special connection

Beth and her twin sister Harriet are convinced that they are able to share experiences and feelings without seeing or speaking to each other. Here's what Beth says:

'Last year I was on a walking holiday with Harriet. She told me that her right ankle was hurting, but she didn't know why. She said she hadn't twisted it or anything, but told me she couldn’t put any weight on it. About a minute later, I suddenly felt a sharp pam in my right ankle! On another occasion, I told Harriet that I had watched a really good video clip on the internet the day before. I said that I would send her a link to the website where I'd found it. I told her she must watch it. Imagine my surprise when she said she had come across the same clip at the same time! She said that after she'd finished watching it, she had thought about sending me the link.

3. Read the text. Are the sentences true (T) or false (F)?

(Đọc văn bản. Các câu đúng (T) hay sai (F)?)

1. Lenkei took about half an hour to hypnotize himself.
2. Lenkei didn’t speak during the operation.
3. All the operations were successful.

It didn’t hurt

1. In 2008, Alex Lenkei had a problem with the bone in his arm and he needed a serious operation. Normally, with an operation like that, the doctor gives the patient an anaesthetic so that he or she doesn’t feel any pain. But Lenkei refused the anaesthetic. Instead, he hypnotised himself and simply told himself that he could not feel any pain. That took about thirty seconds. Then the operation started. According to Mr Lenkei, pain signals do not reach his brain when he is hypnotised.

2. The doctor, David Llewellyn-Clerk, was a bit worried. He had to take some bone from Lenkei’s arm. He watched Lenkei carefully during the operation, as he wasn’t sure that Lenkei could feel no pain. ‘I didn’t think Mr Lenkei could hear us,’ said Dr Llewellyn-Clerk, ‘but halfway through the operation, he said “How’s it going?” That’s when the doctor realised that Lenkei was not in pain. The operation lasted 83 minutes.

3. Mr Lenkei started hypnotising people when he was sixteen and is now an expert. It wasn’t his first operation without anaesthetic. In 1996, a friend hypnotised him before a thirty-minute operation on his stomach. Both operations were successful, so Lenkei had a third operation without anaesthetic in 2013, this time on this ankle, which also went well.

4. Read the text and choose the best summary.

(Đọc văn bản và chọn tóm tắt tốt nhất.)

A. How therapy can help people with phobias.

B. The top five phobias and how to deal with them.

C. How phobias can affect our lives.

Australian Christine Schipp was in the car with her husband one day she noticed a spider on the back window. She opened the door of the moving car and jumped out. Unfortunately, Christine was the driver of the car, and her husband couldn't drive! Luckily the car stopped and her husband wasn't seriously hurt.

Christine reacted in this way because she has a phobia, called arachnophobia – an extreme fear of spiders. Other animals can have a similar effect on some people, including dogs, fish, birds and even frogs. There are also other types of phobias such as environmental phobias (like fear of flying) and medical phobias, for example, when people are terrified of going to the dentist.

Like many phobias, Christian’s fear of spiders comes from an event in the past. When she was four years old, her mother left her alone in the living room. While she was away Christine saw a huge spider coming towards her. She was terrified, and climbed onto the sofa, covering her eyes. She was really upset.

The good news is that there is a cure for these phobias. Psychologists use a technique called exposure therapy. First, they show the patient pictures of the thing they are scared of, and then they put a plastic model of it on the table. Finally, they bring the patient into contact with the real thing until they feel safe enough to be in the room alone.

After just three hours of therapy, Christine Schipp could hold a glass jar containing a large spider. But her treatment isn't finished. She has to continue looking at plastic spiders and pictures of spiders regularly. She hopes that if there is ever a spider in the car again, she won't put her own life, or anyone else’s, in danger.
