University Entrance Examination is very important in Vietnamese students. High school graduates have to take it and get high results to be admitted to universities. The pressure on the candidates remains very high despite the measures that have been taken to reduce the heat around these exams, since securing a place in a state university is considered a major step towards a successful career for young people, especially those from rural areas or disadvantaged families. In the year 2004, it was estimated that nearly 1 million Vietnamese students took the University Entrance Examination, but on average only 1 out of 5 candidates succeeded. Normally, candidates take 3 exam subjects, and each lasts; 180 minutes for the fixed group of subjects they choose. There are 4 fixed groups of subjects: Group A: Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry; Group B: Mathematics, Biology, and Chemistry; Group C: Literature, History, and Geography; Group D: Literature, Foreign Language, and Mathematics. In addition to universities, there are community colleges, art and technology institutes; professional secondary schools, and vocational schools which offer degrees or certificates from a-few-month to 2-year courses. According to Vietnam's Ministry of Education and Training, there are currently 23 non- public universities, accounting for 11% of the total number of universities. These non-public universities are currently training 119,464 students, or 11.7% of the total number of students. The government is planning to increase the number of non-public universities to 30% by 2007. Question 40: University Entrance Examination in Vietnamese is very ___. 166
4. Dong Thap ELTeach Community water for seven days, we managed to find some. We didn’t experience the Taklimakan’s legendary sandstorms. And we never hit the raw, biting desert cold that would have totally immobilized us. That's not to say that we weren’t fighting against hurdles the whole time. The fine sand got into everything, especially blisters and wounds. The high dunes were torture to climb, for us and for the heavily laden camels, which often rolled over onto us. What drove me on more than anything else was the need to survive. We had no contingency plan. Neither our budget nor time allowed one. No aircraft ever flew over us. Once we got into the sand hills we were completely on our own. “I knew I had the mental stamina for the trip but I was very scared of my physical ability to do it. I remember day one - we sat at the edge of the desert and it was such an inferno that you couldn’t breathe. I thought, "We’ve got to do it now!" At that moment I was a very scared man.” If it was like that at the beginning, how did they feel towards the end? “When you’ve walked for 1,000 kilometres you’re not going to duck out. You’ve endured so much; you’ve got so much behind you. We were very thin, but very muscular and sinewy despite our physical exhaustion. My body was well-toned and my legs were like pistons. I could walk over anything.” Midway through the book, Blackmore went on to describe lying in the desert gazing up at a full moon, thinking of his family. How conscious was he of the ordeal it must have been for them? Inside me there's someone trying to find peace with himself. When I have doubts about myself now, I go back to the image of the desert and think, well, we managed to pull that together. As a personal achievement, I feel prouder of that expedition than of anything else I’ve done. Yet in terms of a lifetime’s achievement, I think of my family and the happiness we share - against that yardstick, the desert does not measure up, does not compare. Has Charles Blackmore found peace? “I yearn for the challenge - for the open spaces - the resolve of it all. We were buoyed up by the sense of purpose. I find it difficult now to be part of the uniformity of modem life.” Question 45: Meeting Charles Blackmore changed the writer’s opinion about___. A. the content of children’s fiction. B. the nature of desert exploration. C. the existence of traditional heroes. D. the activities of explorers. Question 46: When the expedition members set off, some of the group ___. A. posed an unexpected risk. B. disagreed with each other. C. were doubtful of success. D. went on ahead of the others. Question 47: Blackmore had decided to set up the expedition because A. he was certain he could complete. B. he wanted to write a book. C. his aims in life had changed. D. his self-confidence was low. Question 48: Which of the following best describes the team’s experience of the desert? A. They were not able to have enough rest. B. It presented continual difficulties. C. They sometimes could not make any progress at all. D. It was worse than they had expected. Question 49: Which of the following did Blackmore experience during the trip? A. frustration at the lack of funding B. regret about the lack of planning C. realization that they would receive no help D. fear that he would let his companions down Question 50: According to Blackmore, what enabled him to finish the expedition? 168
