Câu hỏi: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 35 to 42
GETTING CURIOUS ABOUT CURIOSITY'S MISSION TO MARS
The topic of space exploration reached a high point during the 1960s, as Soviets and Americans competed for dominance. Yet after the Soviets put the first man in space and Americans landed the first men on the moon, many people lost interest as nothing else could compare to these groundbreaking accomplishments. Recently, a robotic rover on a mission to Mars has generated massive interest the public.
Curiosity is a robotic car-sized rover that is part of NASA's long-term plan to learn more about the terrain and conditions on the Red Planet. One of its main goals was to determine whether or not it was possible for life to develop on Mars. Using mechanical arms, Curiosity can gather soil and rock samples from the ground and analyze them to determine their chemical composition. Since transporting around Mars was vital to the success of the mission, a lot of effort was put into Curiosity's transportation abilities. Mars' terrain is not smooth, so designers enabled Curiosity to roll over bumpy areas. Once Curiosity left the Earth, there would be no opportunities to repair it, so engineers also had to be spot on about Curiosity's power solution. Therefore, they devised a system that can generate power internally from a radioisotope generator. Finally, to capture stunning pictures of Mars, Curiosity was equipped with several state-of-the art cameras. The cameras also help the rover avoid hazards, navigate, and detect information about the atmosphere.
After a 350-million-mile journey, Curiosity landed on Mars in 2012, an impressive 1.5 miles away from its initial target. Upon arrival, NASA's website crashed due to an overload of visitors. People just couldn't seem to get enough information on the mission. But the real thrills came in the weeks and months that followed, as people got their first real glimpse about what life was really like on Mars. The mission was originally supposed to last for two years, but scientists are now optimistic that it could continue for up to 15 years, depending on Curiosity's condition. No matter what happens at this point, it is safe to say that Curiosity's mission to Mars has been a smashing success.
Which of the following is NOT the accomplishment done by Curiosity?
A. Navigating the spaceship in space
B. Collecting soil and rock samples from Mars
C. Taking a lot of photos about what life was really like on Mars
D. Proving the durability of a robotic rover on another planet

Ý nào sau đấy KHÔNG phải là thành tựu của Curiosity?
A. Điều hướng tàu vũ trụ trong không gian
B. Thu thập mẫu đá và đất từ Sao Hỏa.
C. Chụp được rất nhiều bức ảnh vè cuộc sống trên Sao Hỏa
D. Chứng tỏ tính lâu bền của xe rô bốt trên một hành tinh khác
Giải thích: Các ý B, C, D đều có trong văn bản:
B. Curiosity can gather soil and rock samples from the ground and analyze them to determine their chemical composition: Curiosity có thể thu thập các mẫu đất và đá từ mặt đất và phân tích chúng để xác định thành phần hóa học của chúng
C. "the real thrills came in the weeks and months that followed, as people got their first real glimpse about what life was really like on Mars": sự thích thú thực sự đến trong những tuần và tháng tiếp theo, khi mọi người có cái nhìn thực tế đầu tiên về cuộc sống thực sự như thế nào trên sao Hỏa (qua những bức ảnh được chụp ở đây)
D. The mission was originally supposed to last for two years, but scientists are now optimistic that it could continue for up to 15 years: Nhiệm vụ ban đầu được cho là kéo dài trong hai năm, nhưng các nhà khoa học hiện lạc quan rằng nó có thể tiếp tục đến 15 năm (Curiosity đã chứng tỏ nó có thể làm việc lâu dài trên Sao Hỏa)
A. sai vì Curiosity có thể tự điều hướng (The cameras also help the rover avoid hazards, navigate, …) chứ không thể điều hướng tàu vũ trụ.
