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

    Millions of people are using cell phones today. In many places, it is actually considered unusual not to use one. In many countries, cell phones are very popular with young people. They find that the phones are more than a means of communication - having a mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected.

    The explosion in mobile phone use around the world has made some health professionals worried. Some doctors are concerned that in the future, many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones. In England, there has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity of such ideas. They say that there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health. On the other hand, medical studies have shown changes in the brain cells of some people who use mobile phones. Signs of change in the tissues of the brain and head can be detected with modern scanning equipment. In one case, a traveling salesman had to retire at young age because of serious memory loss. He couldn't remember even simple tasks. He would often forget the name of his own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone for about six hours a day, every day of his working week, for a couple of years. His family doctor blamed his mobile phone use, but his employer's doctor didn't agree.

          What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? The answer is radiation. High-tech machines can detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phone companies agree that there is some radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worry about. As the discussion about their safety continues, it appears that it's best to use mobile phones less often. Use your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time. Use your mobile phone only when you really need it. Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient, especially in emergencies. In the future, mobile phones may have a warning label that says they are bad for your health. So for now, it's wise not to use your mobile phone too often

The phrase “negative publicity” in the passage most likely means______.

A. information on the lethal effects of cell phones

B. the negative public use of cell phones

C. poor ideas about the effects of cell phones

D. widespread opinion about bad effects of cell phones

Đáp án D

"Negative publicity" ở đoạn 2 có nghĩa là gì?

A. Thông tin về những ảnh hưởng chết người của điện thoại di động.

B. Công khai tiêu cực việc sử dụng điện thoại di động.

C. Ý kiến xấu về những ảnh hưởng của điện thoại di động.

D. Ý kiến lan rộng về những ảnh hưởng xấu của điện thoại di động.

Dẫn chứng đoạn 2: “Some doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones. In England, there has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity of such ideas.”-(Một vài bác sĩ quan ngại rằng trong tương lai, nhiều người có thể sẽ phải chịu những vấn đề về mặt sức khỏe từ việc sử dụng điện thoại di động. Ở Anh, đang có những cuộc tranh luận gay gắt về vấn đề này. Các công ti điện thoại di động thì lo lắng về việc công chúng sẽ biết đến rộng rãi những ý kiến đó).

Như vậy negative publicity tức là việc công chúng biết tới rộng rãi những mặt tiêu cực của một vấn đề gì đó, mà cụ thể ở đây là việc sử dụng điện thoại di động có thể ảnh hưởng xấu tới sức khỏe
