Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Mr. Faugel was convinced that students’ nervousness had affected their scores; to reduce the anxiety of these students who had already been tested, he gave 22 of them a beta blocker before readministration of the test. Their scores improved significantly. The other 8 students (who did not receive the beta blockers) improved only slightly. Second-time test-takers nationwide had average improvements which were similar to those in Faugel's non-beta blocker group.
Beta blockers are prescription drugs which have been around for 25 years. These medications, which interfere with the effects of adrenalin, have been used for heart conditions and for minor stress such as stage fright. Now they are used for test anxiety. These drugs seem to help test-takers who have low scores because of test fright, but not those who do not know the material. Since there can be side effects from these beta blockers, physicians are not ready to prescribe them routinely for all test-takers.
Why are beta clockers not prescribed regularly?
A. Students are expected to do poorly.
B. They cause test anxiety.
C. The drugs are only 25 years old.
D. There are side effects.

(Do có thể có tác dụng phụ từ thuốc chẹn beta, các bác sĩ chưa sẵn sàng kê đơn chúng rộng rãi cho tất cả thí sinh”
Như vậy, chúng không được kê đơn rộng rãi do có tác dụng phụ.
