 More and more, technology is moving to the cloud. It’s not just a fad - the shift away from traditional software 
models to software as a service, or Saas, has steadily gained momentum over the last 10 years. Looking ahead, the 
next decade of cloud computing promises even more ways to collaborate from anywhere, using mobile devices. 
 So what is cloud computing? Essentially, cloud computing is a kind of outsourcing of software, data storage, and 
processing. Users access applications and files by logging in from any device that has an internet connection. 
Information and programs are hosted by outside parties and reside on a global network of secure data centres instead 
of on the user’s hard drive. This frees up processing power, facilitates sharing and collaboration, and allows secure 
mobile access regardless of where the user is or what device is being used. 
 Cloud computing is a more efficient way of delivering computing resources. With cloud computing, software and 
service environments are subscription-based - users pay a monthly fee instead of buying licenses. Software and 
platforms are managed by the providers and are updated continuously for maximum performance and security. 
Computing power is remote instead of centralized, so users can tap into extra capacity if business spikes. Multiple 
people can access a shared program or file and collaborate in real time from different locations. 
 (Adapted from

 Mã đề 725 - trang 3/4 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 from 44 to 50. 
 Among the various summer schools and seminars in existence, a special position is held by the International 
Summer School in Oslo. For the past 20 years, students and teachers have gathered here from around the world. With 
regard to the number of courses, the quality of the lecturers and the type of participants, this Summer School 
undoubtedly holds a respected position. 
 In the space of six weeks in Norway, participants from almost all continents had the opportunity to live and study 
together. They studied not only their particular subjects in the special courses, the general aspects of Norway, its people 
and their way of life, but they also had a unique occasion for the exchange of experiences and thoughts ranging over a 
wide area. 
 Today, when we are striving for the full affirmation of active peaceful coexistence - creating, developing and 
accepting conditions for forming a real international community - every action in the field of international understanding 
holds importance. Thus, the gathering of nations in Oslo ideally presents the opportunity for the creating of the new 
ideas needed for cooperation and understanding. The problem is to avoid accepting the existing status quo in world 
relations. During the international evenings, chats after lectures, various discussions and, most important, during 
personal talks each person had the opportunity to comprehend and finally accept some of his friends’ ideas which at 
firsts appeared to be so strangely different. 
 The system of studies in different countries, problems of living standards, economic politics, political freedom 
and, what is more important, ideological orientation was clarified for many of us after six weeks of living together. The 
42 days of lectures, conversations in the cafeteria, and excursions laid a strong foundation for the development of new 
friendships. The need for cooperation and broader contact has become clearer to most of the participants. 
 After the end of school, the small international society of Blindern composed of a mixture of people from East and 
West, the North and South of the world will disappear. Each returns to his respective country, but the rich and useful 
experiences prove how urgently international friendship is needed today, and that it must be striven for and achieved. 
 (Adapted from 
Question 44: Which best serves as the title for the passage? 
 A. Mutual Understanding - The International Summer School (ISS). 
 B. Affirmation of Active Peaceful Coexistence. 
 C. Strong Foundation for The Development of New Friendships.

 A. knowledge about the general aspects of Norway only 
 B. a chance to exchange experiences and thoughts 
 C. some time to live and study separately 
 D. unique occasion to visit a wild and wide area 
Question 47: The word “gathering” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______. 
 A. concept B. passion C. recipe D. assembly 
Question 48: The word “respective” in paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ______.

 B. The 40 days of lectures is the precious time for the development of new friendships. 
 C. The small international society includes people from almost all over the world. 
 D. The Summer School undoubtedly holds a respected position.

 A. A school must have people from East and West, the North and South of the world. 
 B. Many more schools like the International Summer School must be striven for and achieved. 
 C. People around the world should try to have international friendship that is urgently needed.
