correct answer to each of the questions.
The relationship between Britain and the US has always been a close one. Like all close
relationships it has had difficult times. The US was first a British colony, but between 1775 and 1783 the
US fought a war to become independent. The US fought the British again in the War of 1812.
In general, however, the two countries have felt closer to each other than to any other country, and
their foreign policies have shown this. During World War I and World War II, Britain and the US
supported each other. When the US looks for foreign support, Britain is usually the first country to come
forward and it is sometimes called “the 51st state of the union”.
But the special relationship that developed after 1945 is not explained only by shared political
interests. An important reason for the friendship is that the people of the two countries are very similar.
They share the same language and enjoy each other’s literature, films and television. Many Americans
have British ancestors, or relatives still living in Britain. The US government and political system are
based on Britain’s, and there are many Anglo-American businesses operating on both sides of the
Atlantic. In Britain, some people are worried about the extent of US influence, and there is some jealousy
of its current power. The special relationship was strong in the early 1980s when Margaret Thatcher was
Prime Minister in Britain and Ronald Reagan was President of the US.
Câu 32: What is the passage mainly about?
A. The strong friendship between the UK and the US.
B. The close relationship between Britain and the US
C. A special relationship the UK developed during the World Wars
D. A special influence the US had on the UK during the World Wars
Câu 33: The phrase “come forward” in paragraph 2 mostly means _______.

A. be willing to help B. be able to help
C. be reluctant to help D. be eager to help
Câu 34: The word “they” in paragraph 3 refers to ______.
A. countries B. people C. political interests D. British ancestors
Câu 35: Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a reason for the special relationship between
Britain and the US?
A. The people of the two countries are similar.
B. Many Americans have British ancestors.
C. British Prime Minister and the US President are close friends.
D. Many Anglo-American businesses are operating in the two countries.
Câu 36: Britain and the US are close to each other NOT because of their ______.
A. foreign policies B. power C. political interest D. language
Saving the planet is very much in vogue. It's also in Harper's Bazaar, Elle and Mademoiselle. It's
the message on fashion runways, in marketing strategies, in jewelry and accessory designs, on shopping
bags and totes, in advertisements and on price tags.
A naked fashion model wearing a hat of birch branches and lichen, as shown in Vogue this month,
may not be everyone's idea of environmental awareness. But the pervasiveness of ecological themes in
the images and marketing of fashion is undeniable. It is also somewhat paradoxical. The fashion
industry, whose driving philosophy involves encouraging consumers to discard the old and embrace the
new, is now trying to push itself to the forefront of efforts to conserve and preserve.
The environmental theme in fashion began as wispy touches and graphic exhortations in designer
collections, not as some well-thought-out strategy of ''green'' marketing in which the environmental
advantages of a product become part of the sales approach. Tendrils of ivy dangled from the ceiling at a
Paris fashion show; a carpet of grass covered a runway in New York; models marched along in T-shirts or
carrying signs all bearing slogans like ''Clean Up or Die,'' ''Save the Sphere,'' and ''Environmental
Protection Agents.
The environmental spin on fashion has now moved into the mass market, where ''clothes with
conscience'' make an extra tug at the buyer's self-image. Bonjour, a jeans and sportswear company based
in New York, has embarked on a program to ''change the individual's outlook toward saving the
environment'' through educational tags. This summer, the first wave of what Bonjour executives said
would be 50 million fashion items a year are to arrive in stores carrying tags with environmental tips from
how to save water to how to reduce pollutants.
Whether these tributes to nature will benefit the environment or even raise environmental
awareness, with concomitant changes in individual behavior, is not clear. There is some skepticism.
Professor Ewen says the new environmental symbolism should be viewed as part of an overall change in
America's economy, from one built on industrial production of hard goods to one based on ''pure
representation”. “Going back to fashion, the environment has become a commercial cliche separated from
real concerns. What can be attached to this year's fashion is merely the symbolism of environmental
sanity.''
Câu 37: Which best serves as the title for the passage?
A. The green movement in the fashion world
B. The long-forgotten theme of the fashion industry.
C. Fashion and environment can never go hand in hand.

B. Fast fashion’s main features are premeditated waste and disposability.
C. It is predicted that the green trend can only remain as a niche market.
D. The concept of ethical fashion was once rejected by the industry.

A. fine B. small C. silvery D. flamboyant

Myriad occupational schools in the central coastal city of Da Nang have received just a small
number of applications over the past few years. “Last year we only had 142 new students, but the number
of new enrollees is 50 this school year,” Truong Van Hung, rector of the Duc Tri Da Nang Vocational
College, said, adding the school has set a target of recruiting 1,200 students for the 2014-2015 academic
year. “Closing the school is just a matter of time,” he said.
Similarly, the Viet A Vocational School in Hai Chau District in Da Nang has not recruited any
new enrollee for over one year given the absence of job opportunities for its graduates. “We do not want
to enroll because we cannot help students land jobs after they graduate,” a leader of Viet A said. “We will
only admit new students when we can have a partnership with companies who can employ our students
after they finish their studies.”
Elsewhere, vocational schools in the southern province of Dong Nai are ‘frozen’. The Dong
Nai Information Technology-Telecommunications Vocational School in the academic year of 2013-2014
enrolled only 82 students compared with a target of 1,000; the Nhon Trach Industrial Engineering
Vocational School only had 200 out of its goal of 600 students for the school year; the 26-3 Vocational
School received 150 students while they set a target of 250; and the South-Eastern Electromechanical
Vocational School only recruited 300 out of the 500 students they planned to admit.
The situation means that equipment for training programs at those schools has been left unused
and covered with rust. Local experts have commented that if the lack of students persists, vocational
schools are at high risk of being closed, sooner or later.

The number of people accessing the State’s and community’s priority policies and programmes is
increasing, said Minister of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs Dao Ngoc Dung. Vietnam has around 6.2
million people over the age of two with disabilities, making up 7.06 per cent of the country’s population.
Of those, 28 per cent are severely disabled, 58 per cent female, 28 per cent children and 10 per cent living
in poverty. Most live in rural areas and many are victims of Agent Orange.
Minister Dung said in the past, the State, the Party and Vietnamese people had paid much care to
people with disabilities. Vietnam ratified the United Nations Convention on the Rights of People with
Disabilities in 2014. In March this year, the country ratified the International Labour Organisation’s
Convention 159 about jobs for people with disabilities. It strongly confirmed Vietnam’s commitment to
ensuring the disabled would not be discriminated against at work.
Last month, the Secretariat Committee issued Instruction 39 about the Party’s leading work on
affairs related to people with disabilities. The National Assembly later ratified the amended Law on
Labour with many adjustments relating to disabled people. Dung said that every year, millions of disabled
people receive an allowance from the State and all provinces and cities had rehabilitation centres.
Attending the event, Truong Thi Mai, head of the Party Central Committee’s Commission for Mass
Mobilisation, said besides the achievements, Vietnam still sees many obstacles. Infrastructure is still
limited in demand for people with disabilities and many life below the poverty line depending heavily on
their families.
Mai asked organisations to improve education to raise people’s awareness of the meaning of
supportive work to people with disabilities. This year, more than VNĐ 17 trillion (US$735.4 million)

from the State budget was allocated to provinces and cities to implement policies for people with
disabilities, according to the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs.
The Ministry of Planning and Investment on Thursday launched the programme “White stick for
Vietnamese visual impaired people”. Its aim is to present one million white sticks to visually impaired
people across the country. Training to use the device will also be provided. Minister of Planning and
Investment Nguyen Chi Dung said the ministry will listen to disabled people’s demands and wishes and
put them into its policies. Deputy chairwoman of the National Assembly Tong Thi Phong said Vietnam
has committed to developing socio-economy, taking care of social equality and improving social
management ability.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of
the questions from 34 to 38.
Earthquakes are destructive events in nature. The damage depends on the size or magnitude of the
quake. There have never been so many people living in cities in quake zones, and so the worse the
damage can be from a big quake, bringing fires, tsunamis, and the loss of life, property, and maybe an
entire city.

We understand how earthquakes happen but not exactly where or when they will occur. Until
recently, quakes seemed to occur at random. In Japan, government research is now showing that quakes
can be predicted. At the Earthquake Research Institute, University of Tokyo, Koshun Yamaoka says
earthquakes do follow a pattern—pressure builds in a zone and must be released. But a colleague,
Naoyuki Kato, adds that laboratory experiments indicate that a fault slips a little before it breaks. If this is
true, predictions can be made based on the detection of slips.
Research in the U.S. may support Kato’s theory. In Parkfield, California earthquakes occur about
every 22 years on the San Andreas fault. In the 1980s, scientists drilled into the fault and set up
equipment to record activity to look for warning signs. When an earthquake hit again, it was years off
schedule. At first the event seemed random but scientists drilled deeper. By 2005 they reached the bottom
of the fault, two miles down, and found something. Data from two quakes reported in 2008 show there
were two “slips’—places where the plates widened—before the fault line broke and the quakes occurred.
We are learning more about these destructive events every day. In the future we may be able to
track earthquakes and design an early-warning system. So if the next great earthquake does happen in
Tokai, about 100 miles southwest of Tokyo, as some scientists think, the citizens of Tokai may have
advance warning.
(Adapted from Reading Explorer 3, Nancy Douglas et al., 2010)

If you go back far enough, everything lived in the sea. At various points in evolutionary history,
enterprising individuals within many different animal groups moved out onto the land, sometimes even to
the most parched deserts, taking their own private seawater with them in blood and cellular fluids. In
addition to the reptiles, birds, mammals and insects which we see all around us, other groups that have

succeeded out of water include scorpions, snails, crustaceans such as woodlice and land crabs, millipedes
and centipedes, spiders and various worms. And we mustn’t forget the plants, without whose prior
invasion of the land, none of the other migrations could have happened.
Moving from water to land involved a major redesign of every aspect of life, including breathing
and reproduction. Nevertheless, a good number of thoroughgoing land animals later turned around,
abandoned their hard-earned terrestrial re-tooling, and returned to the water again. Seals have only gone
part way back. They show us what the intermediates might have been like, on the way to extreme cases
such as whales and dugongs. Whales (including the small whales we call dolphins) and dugongs, with
their close cousins, the manatees, ceased to be land creatures altogether and reverted to the full marine
habits of their remote ancestors. They don’t even come ashore to breed. They do, however, still breathe
air, having never developed anything equivalent to the gills of their earlier marine incarnation. Turtles
went back to the sea a very long time ago and, like all vertebrate returnees to the water, they breathe air.
However, they are, in one respect, less fully given back to the water than whales or dugongs, for turtles
still lay their eggs on beaches.
There is evidence that all modern turtles are descended from a terrestrial ancestor which lived
before most of the dinosaurs. There are two key fossils called Proganochelys quenstedti and Palaeochersis
talampayensis dating from early dinosaur times, which appear to be close to the ancestry of all modern
turtles and tortoise. You might wonder how we can tell whether fossil animals lived in land or in water,
especially if only fragments are found. Sometimes it’s obvious. Ichthyosaurs were reptilian
contemporaries of the dinosaurs, with fins and streamlined bodies. The fossils look like dolphins and they
surely lived like dolphins, in the water. With turtles it is a little less obvious. One way to tell is by
measuring the bones of their forelimbs.

May 1 is marked as International Labour Day, also referred as May Day. The day celebrates
labourers and the working class. Labour Day is an annual public holiday in many countries. It is also
referred as International Workers’ Day or just Worker’s Day.
During industrialization in beginning of the 19th Century, the industrialists used to exploit the
labour class and made them work up to 15 hours a day. The workers in the U.S. rose against this
exploitation and demanded paid leaves, proper wages and breaks for the workforce. The eight-hour day
labour movement advocated eight hours for work, eight hours for recreation, and eight hours for rest. The
Labour Day annually celebrates the achievements of the workers.
The day has different story for different places. May 1 was chosen to be International Workers’
Day to commemorate the 1886 Haymarket affair in Chicago. In that year, on May 1, there was a general
strike for the eight-hour workday. On May 4, the police acted to disperse a public assembly in support of
the strike when an unidentified person threw a bomb. The police responded by firing on the workers. The
event lead to several deaths. The incident is remembered as the Haymarket affair, or the Haymarket
massacre. The place in Haymarket Square where the incident happened was designated a Chicago
Landmark in 1992.
Labour Day or May Day has been a focal point of protests by various socialist and communist
groups and is an important holiday in communist countries like China, North Korea, Cuba and the former

Soviet Union countries. In India, the first Labour day or May Day was celebrated in the year 1923. It was
the Labour Kisan Party who had organised the May Day celebrations in Chennai (then Madras).
Câu 34: What is main topic of the passage?
A. The birth of the day dedicated to workers. B. Holidays that fall on Mondays.
C. Why and how Labour Day is celebrated. D. The rights of working class.
Câu 35: The word “It” in paragraph 1 refers to _______.
A. workforce B. Labour Day C. public holiday D. working class
Câu 36: According to paragraph 2, what is the origin of May Day being described?
A. Labour Day dates back to the late 1900s when the heavy industries were blooming.
B. Worker’s Day beginning was linked with the advent of class consciousness.
C. Labour Day has its origins in the labour union movement in the United States.
D. Worker’s Day concept has been brewing since the dawn of capitalism.
Câu 37: According to paragraph 3, what is NOT correct about the incident of Haymarket?
A. Many people were killed when the police intervened by random gunfire.
B. The Haymarket tragedy inspired generations of rightist activists.
C. The Haymarket riot happened in the late 1800s in Chicago.
D. A bomb was thrown by an individual never positively identified.
Câu 38: The word “focal” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to ______.

The World Health Organization on Wednesday declared the rapidly spreading coronavirus
outbreak a pandemic. Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said that “We expect to see the
number of cases, the number of deaths, and the number of affected countries climb even higher.”
WHO officials had said earlier they were hesitant to call the outbreak a pandemic in case it led
governments and individuals to give up the fight. On Wednesday, they stressed that fundamental public
health interventions can still limit the spread of the virus and drive down cases even where it was
transmitting widely, as the work of authorities and communities in China, Singapore, and South Korea
has shown.
The virus, which probably originated in bats but passed to people via an as yet unrecognized
intermediary animal species, is believed to have started infecting people in Wuhan, China, in late
November or early December. Since then the virus has raced around the globe. South Korea, which has
reported nearly 8,000 cases, also appears poised to bring its outbreak under control with aggressive
measures and widespread testing. But other countries have struggled to follow the leads of China and
South Korea — a reality that has frustrated WHO officials who have exhorted the world to do everything
possible to end transmission of the virus. Tedros used the fact that 90% of the cumulative cases have been
reported in just four countries as evidence that the rest of the world still had time to prevent an explosion
of cases with action.
WHO officials also stressed that countries should be implementing a strategic combination two
types of measures. One involves trying to detect and stop known chains of transmission by isolating cases
and following and potentially quarantining their contacts. The other involves community-level steps like
social distancing and comes into play when the virus is spreading more broadly and transmission chains
can’t be tracked. Mike Ryan, the head of the WHO’s emergency program, said that the public health
interventions might not have straightforward effect, but to slow the spread of the virus. People with
severe cases can require long periods of critical care and strain the resources of hospitals. He said he was

worried about “the case load, the demand on the health workers, the dangers that come with fatigue, and
potentially shortages of personal protective equipment.”
A. Some contracted with coronavirus get very ill but most don’t.
B. What scientists still don’t know about coronavirus patients.

A. The WHO suggested that all countries can still change the course of this pandemic.
B. The current spreading virus is the second coronavirus to reach pandemic levels.
C. Coronavirus primitively circulates among animals but somehow spreads to human.
D. China is the assumed country of virus origin and where the disease hits the hardest.
Câu 43: The word “poised” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _______.

mothers and motherhood, Father's Day celebrates fatherhood and paternal bonds; it highlights the
(30)_________ of fathers in society. Many countries celebrate it on the third Sunday of June, but it is also
celebrated widely on other days. Historically, Sonora Smart Dodd was the woman behind the celebration
of male parenting. Her father, the Civil War veteran William Jackson Smart, was a single parent who (31)
________ his six children there. After hearing a sermon about Jarvis' Mother's Day in 1909, she told her
pastor that fathers should have a similar holiday honoring them. Although she initially suggested June 5,
her father's birthday, the pastors did not have enough time to prepare their sermons, and the celebration
was deferred to the third Sunday of June. The first celebration was in Spokane, Washington at the YMCA
(Young Men's Christian Association) on June 19, 1910. Since then it has become a traditional day (32)

As the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of relaxation. Once you are in
the habit of rushing through life, being on the go from morning to night, it is hard to slow down. But
relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body.
Stress is a natural part of every life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing it
is often supposed to be. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life.
It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.
The amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual. Some people
are not afraid of stress, and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities.
Others lose heart at the first signs of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress in whatever form, we
react both chemically and physically. In fact we make choice between “fight” or “flight”, and in more
primitive days the choice made the difference between life or death. The crises we meet today are not
likely to be so extreme, but however little the stress, it involves the same response. It is when such a
reaction lasts long, through continued exposure to stress that health becomes endangered. Such serious
conditions as high blood pressure and heart disease have established links with stress. Since we cannot
remove stress from our lives (and it would be unwise to do so even if we could), we need to find ways to
deal with it.

Câu 34: People are finding less and less time for relaxing themselves because __________.
A. they do not know how to enjoy themselves
B. they do not believe that relaxation is important for health
C. they are travelling fast all the time
D. they are becoming busier their work
Câu 35: According to the writer, the most important character for a good manager is his _______.
A. not fearing stress B. high sense of responsibility
C. knowing the art of relaxation D. having control over performance
Câu 36: Which of the following statements is true?
A. We can find some ways to avoid stress
B. Stress is always harmful to people
C. It’s easy to change the habit of keeping oneself busy with work
D. Different people can withstand different amounts of stress
Câu 37: In paragraph 3, “such a reaction” refers back to__________.
A. making a choice between “fight” or “flight”
B. reaction to stress both chemically and physically
C. responding to crises quickly
D. losing heart at the signs of difficulties
Câu 38: In the last sentence of the passage, “do so” refers to _________.
A. expose ourselves to stress B. find ways to deal with stress

The Socialist Republic of Vietnam has stood out as one such example of how to effectively
respond to the pandemic. Vietnam, which shares a border with China and is about 1,200 miles from
where the outbreak was first reported in Wuhan, has overcome steep odds in the global fight against
COVID-19. As of April 6, the Vietnamese government has reported 245 confirmed cases with 95
recoveries and no fatalities.
The country’s response to the outbreak has received international recognition, including from the
World Health Organization and World Economic Forum, for its comprehensive, low-cost model of
disease prevention. WHO representative in Vietnam, Dr. Ki Dong Park, attests the government “has
always been proactive and prepared for necessary actions”.
The Communist Party of Vietnam has strengthened its anti-pandemic measures by implementing
nationwide social distancing rules, such as banning outside gatherings of more than two people while
keeping a distance of 6.5 feet, and temporary shutdowns of “non-essential” businesses, including
restaurants, entertainment centers and tourist sites.
Supermarkets and other essential services remain open, but are instructed to safeguard customers’
health by checking their temperatures before entering the building and providing them with hand
sanitizers. In addition, the government has warned against panic buying and has taken action against
businesses engaged in price gouging. To ensure social security for affected workers, Vietnam has
approved a 111.55 million dollar financial support package that includes covering all costs for workers in
quarantine or are recovering from the disease.

Unlike the U.S. capitalist class and the Trump administration, the Vietnamese government took
early measures to combat the current coronavirus epidemic. Officials began preparing strategies to
combat the outbreak immediately after the first cases emerged in China.
On February 1, Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc signed Decision No.173.QD-TTG,
categorizing the virus as a Class A contagious disease “that can transmit very rapidly and spread widely
with high mortality rates.” This declaration of a national emergency came after the sixth case of
coronavirus in the country was reported. In contrast, the Trump administration only declared a national
emergency over the global pandemic on March 13, when there were at least 1,920 confirmed cases across
46 states.

Like high schools, American colleges are sometimes criticized for discarding required courses and
offering too (29)____________ electives. In the mid-1980s, the Association of American Colleges issued

education may no longer be developing in students “the shared values and knowledge” that traditionally

Australia is suffering from one of its worst fire seasons in history, with more than two dozen
people killed, thousands of homes destroyed, and millions of acres burned so far. Unfortunately, fires like
this, exacerbated by the effects of climate change, will likely rage again, but Australia’s government can
take steps to minimize their destruction.
With warming temperatures, Australia will face longer fire seasons. To reduce future damage,
governments at all levels must act. Areas of focus should include enhancing early warning systems and
fire prediction capabilities; launching public awareness campaigns on the dangers posed by climate-
fueled bushfires and necessary prevention measures; conducting more controlled burns; and developing
more stringent building codes that address climate risk.

At the state and local levels, communities need to professionalize their firefighting capabilities.
They should invest in improved training that educates firefighters and local leaders about the changing
characteristics of bushfires. And, once this fire season subsides, states should oversee how and where
rebuilding occurs, including restricting redevelopment of particularly fire-prone areas.
(Adapted from https://www.cfr.org/)

C. They should take steps to minimize their destruction.

Children are not the face of this pandemic, but they risk being among its biggest victims. While
they have thankfully been largely spared from the direct health effects of COVID-19 - at least to date –
the crisis is having a profound effect on their wellbeing. All children, of all ages, and in all countries, are
being affected, in particular by the socio-economic impacts and, in some cases, by mitigation measures
that may inadvertently do more harm than good. This is a universal crisis and, for some children, the
impact will be lifelong. Moreover, the harmful effects of this pandemic will not be distributed equally.
They are expected to be most damaging for children in the poorest countries, and in the poorest
neighborhoods, and for those in already disadvantaged or vulnerable situations.
There are three main channels through which children are affected by this crisis: infection with
the virus itself; the immediate socioeconomic impacts of measures to stop transmission of the virus and
end the pandemic; and the potential longer-term effects of delayed implementation of the Sustainable
Development Goals.

All of this is affecting children in multiple ways. An estimated 42-66 million children could fall
into extreme poverty as a result of the crisis this year, adding to the estimated 386 million children
already in extreme poverty in 2019. 188 countries have imposed countrywide school closures, affecting
more than 1.5 billion children and youth. The potential losses that may accrue in learning for today’s
young generation, and for the development of their human capital, are hard to fathom. More than two-
thirds of countries have introduced a national distance learning platform, but among low-income
countries the share is only 30 percent. Before this crisis, almost one-third of the world’s young people
were already digitally excluded.
Lockdowns and shelter in place measures come with a heightened risk of children witnessing or
suffering violence and abuse. Children in conflict settings, as well as those living in unsanitary and
crowded conditions such as refugee and IDP settlements, are also at considerable risk. Children’s reliance
on online platforms for distance learning has also increased their risk of exposure to inappropriate content
and online predators.

There have never been so (29)___________ people living in cities in quake zones because the
worse the damage can be from a big quake, bringing fires, tsunamis, and the loss of life, property, and
maybe an entire city. We understand how earthquakes happen but not exactly where or when they will
occur. Until recently, quakes seemed to occur at random. In Japan, government research is now showing
that quakes can be predicted. At the Earthquake Research Institute, University of Tokyo, Koshun
Yamaoka says earthquakes do follow a (30)__________ pressure builds in a zone and must be released.
But a colleague, Naoyuki Kato, adds that laboratory experiments indicate that a fault slips a little before it
breaks. If this is true, predictions can be made based on the detection of slips.
Research in the U.S. may support Kato’s theory. In Parkfield, California earthquakes occur about
every 22 years on the San Andreas Fault. In the 1980s, scientists drilled into the fault and set up
equipment to record activity to look for warning signs. (31)________ an earthquake hit again, it was
years of schedule. At first the event seemed random but scientists drilled deeper. By 2005 they reached
the bottom of the fault, two miles down, and found something. Data from two quakes reported in 2008
show there were two “slips’ places (32)_______ the plates widened—before the fault line broke and the
quakes occurred.
We are learning more about these destructive events every day. In the future we may be able to
track earthquakes and design an early-warning system. So if the next great earthquake does (33)_______

advance warning.

Most Americans say they know at least some of their neighbors, but only about three-in-ten say
they know all or most of them. Rural residents are more likely than those in urban or suburban areas to
say they know all or most of their neighbors, but they don’t necessarily interact with their neighbors more
than their counterparts in other community types.
Overall, Americans tend to be trusting of their neighbors, but this is particularly the case in
suburban and rural areas. About six-in-ten in these types of community say they have a neighbor they
would trust with a key to their home, compared with about half in urban areas.
The longer people have lived in their community, the more likely they are to have a neighbor they
would trust with a key to their home. But even among those who report that they have lived in their
community for less than one year, 34% say they would be comfortable with a neighbor having their keys.
Meanwhile, 64% of those who have lived in their community for six or more years and 47% of those who
have done so for one to five years say the same. Those who own their home are more likely than renters
to say they would be comfortable with a neighbor having a set of keys to their home (67% vs. 45%).

When asked to describe their neighbors, people in rural areas are far more likely than those in
cities and suburbs to say all or most of their neighbors share their race or ethnicity. Suburbanites are
somewhat more likely than their urban and rural counterparts to say their neighbors are the same social
class as they are, while relatively few across community types say all or most of their neighbors share
their political views.

While the debate regarding how much screen time is appropriate for children rages on among
educators, psychologists, and parents, it’s another emerging technology in the form of artificial
intelligence and machine learning that is beginning to alter education tools and institutions and changing
what the future might look like in education. It is expected that artificial intelligence in U.S. education
will grow by 47.5% from 2017-2021 according to the Artificial Intelligence Market in the US Education
Sector report. Even though most experts believe the critical presence of teachers is irreplaceable, there
will be many changes to a teacher’s job and to educational best practices.
AI has already been applied to education primarily in some tools that help develop skills and
testing systems. As AI educational solutions continue to mature, the hope is that AI can help fill needs
gaps in learning and teaching and allow schools and teachers to do more than ever before. AI can drive

efficiency, personalization and streamline admin tasks to allow teachers the time and freedom to provide
understanding and adaptability—uniquely human capabilities where machines would struggle. By
leveraging the best attributes of machines and teachers, the vision for AI in education is one where they
work together for the best outcome for students. Since the students of today will need to work in a future
where AI is the reality, it’s important that our educational institutions expose students to and use the
technology.
Artificial intelligence tools can help make global classrooms available to all including those who
speak different languages or who might have visual or hearing impairments. Presentation Translator is a
free plug-in for PowerPoint that creates subtitles in real time for what the teacher is saying. This also
opens up possibilities for students who might not be able to attend school due to illness or who require
learning at a different level or on a particular subject that isn’t available in their own school. AI can help
break down silos between schools and between traditional grade levels.

When it comes to discussing AI and the future of work we exhale in relief when someone says
machines will have a hard time replacing us. This statement is backed by the argument that most AI
systems are ‘narrow’. AI systems only do one thing but do it really well, for example, predicting what you
want to watch on Netflix. If you ask the same system to make you a cup of coffee or drive your car,
you’re likely to be disappointed.
But what happens when the AI system can perform the most significant tasks that a job entails?
One interesting example we found came from the fashion industry, where a company had implemented
two AI systems to produce novel designs. Together, they did all work and the human’s role was only to
surveil the work.
Research published earlier this year coined the term ‘Shadow Learning’. As explained in the
Harvard Business Review article titled ‘Learning to work with intelligent machines’, the researcher
studied the challenges new surgeons faced when learning robotic surgery skills. Previously, they learned
how to perform surgery by working alongside expert surgeons, but now they’re forced to watch over the

surgeon’s shoulder as, thanks to robotics, individuals can handle entire surgeries with one pair of hands.
The term, however, does not mean that you learn by shadowing someone. The phrase refers to students
who gained experience with robotic tools by taking it upon themselves to acquire new skills outside of the
curriculum.
If we look beyond the current discussion of AI and the future of work – which usually revolves
around the number of jobs that will be impacted by AI – we can focus on how to create inspiring new
ways to work with machines.

Stephen Cameron, Vietnam’s patient number 91, has recovered from COVID-19 and is returning
home today (July 12th). The symbol of Vietnam’s pandemic success, as referred to by Reuters (the ABC
news), will be accompanied by a team of doctors during the flight to London.
The 43-year-old Scot, arriving in Vietnam in early March, was tested positive for COVID-19 only
three days after his first flight for Vietnam Airlines, following a visit to a bar in Ho Chi Minh City that
became a coronavirus outbreak. Cameron’s illness and the highly publicized efforts of Vietnam’s doctors
to save him became a symbol in Vietnam of the country’s successful fight against the virus, as reported
by Reuters.
The ABC news recognized Vietnam’s huge efforts to save the man, who had been critically ill
and spent 65 days on life support. Doctors said at one point they considered a lung transplant as the man’s
lungs were 90% damaged and non-functional. With the vast majority of Vietnam’s COVID-19 patients
already recovered, the news of a potential first death prompted a national outpouring of support, with
dozens of people coming forward as potential lung donors.
However, like a miracle, after he woke from a coma at the end of May, there were small signs of
improvement – a thumbs-up sign for an attentive doctor, a trip on to the balcony to catch some sunshine

and a video of him holding a Motherwell football club scarf aloft. Every little progress was closely
followed by the media and attracted great attention.
“The patient’s recovery has been like a very long flight” – Dr. Tran Thanh Linh, the deputy head
of the ICU ward at Cho Ray Hospital, said during a meeting between hospital officials, the British
Consulate and Vietnam Airlines representatives just before Cameron’s discharge – the Washing Post
reported. “All of the health workers are overwhelmed with joy to see him fully recovered and being
discharged from the hospital today.” The UK’s Daily Mail quoted Mr Cameron: “I’m overwhelmed by
the generosity of the Vietnamese people, the dedication and professionalism of the doctors and nurses
working at Cho Ray Hospital. I’m going home with a happy heart because I’m going home, but it is sad
that I’m leaving so many people here that I’m friends with”.
Vietnam has reported 370 coronavirus cases with no local transmitted infection for nearly three
months. All recent cases are people who were infected abroad and had been under compulsory quarantine
upon their arrival in Vietnam.

Marine ecotourism focuses specifically on activities that take place on the coast or in the ocean. It
includes activities like eco-friendly boating, dolphin and whale watching, snorkeling, scuba diving and
fishing, but in a sustainable way and with an emphasis on education.
One of the most popular forms of marine ecotourism is whale watching. Whales are worth more
alive than dead these days, after decades — maybe even centuries — of whaling. While commercial
whaling is banned in most countries, Japan, Norway and Iceland have continued the practice through
finding loopholes or just rebelling against the international law. A recent National Geographic article
discussed the fact that the Japanese, for example, are eating much less whale meat than in the past.
They’re also spending a lot more time whale watching.
Mexico is another example of this. The shark watching revenue in the Gulf of California region
represents more than half the value from shark fisheries in the country. Ecotourism has become a much-
needed source of employment in the Gulf of California (and other coastal regions) because of warming
ocean temperatures, extreme weather events that are taking place more often than they have in the past,
and declining fish stocks. In Newfoundland, Canada’s main sealing province, over 1.3 million people
participated in whale watching. That contributed to nearly $20 million to the local economy and is seen as
a possible alternative to the sealing economy.
Ecotourism Australia says that “ecotourism has rocketed from an unknown entity to global
phenomenon in the last 30 years and nature-based tourism already makes up 75 percent of the
international tourism market.” It’s an example of knowing better and doing better, and can make a
positive impact on conservation efforts on the coast and in the ocean.

Whether you’re put off by student loans, you need a break from education, or you’re keen on
starting work straight after school – going to university isn’t the right choice for everyone. And you might
be surprised at the career prospects available to those without a degree. If you’re considering not going to
university, here are a few options of what you could do next.
If you’ve just finished school and you don’t have any work experience, traineeships and
internships are a great way to prepare yourself for your future career. Traineeships usually last from six
weeks to six months, and are offered exclusively to 16-23 year olds. Not only do they provide essential
work preparation training, they’re also the perfect opportunity to gain the practical skills and experience
needed to move onto an apprenticeship or job. While internships are similar to traineeships, they are
available to people of all ages – and usually focus more on providing practical work experience, rather
than guided training and work preparation.
School leaver programmes are becoming a popular choice for A-level students who aren’t
interested in university, but still want the learning and training that’s involved with further education.
These programmes are designed to give school leavers the chance to earn a qualification whilst working
part-time or full-time (and earning a wage). The exact structure of a school leaver programmes will
largely depend on the company you work for. School leaver programmes could last anything from three
to seven years, and are most common in industries like accountancy, finance, retail, engineering, and IT.
If you’re keen to start work straight away, an entry-level job could be well within your reach. And you
may be surprised at what kinds of jobs are available. Whether you want to start a career in education,
you’re interested in breaking into the marketing industry, or you’re passionate about IT – you don’t
always need extensive experience or qualifications to start a career in your preferred sector. And with
many employers providing on-the-job training for new recruits, you’ll be able to learn a range of key
skills to help you progress within the industry.

Once your child is born, they start learning motor skills, language skills, cognitive skills, and
emotional skills.
Regarding motor skills, it is largely the family’s responsibility for teaching these skills. Even if
your child is in daycare, the work that parents put in at home to teach these skills is much more effective
than in the few hours your child is under someone else’s care. Your child will learn how to sit up, walk,
run, climb, hold a spoon and so on. These seem quite natural to us as adults, but they are skills that have
to be fine-tuned at a very young age, and they also reinforce your child’s independence which is essential
for their development.
Language skills are another essential component of the role of family in child development. If you
do not speak to your child and teach them your language, they will never learn. One infamous example of
this occurring is with Genie, a child who was locked in a dark room with extremely little human contact
until she was rescued at age 13. She was never able to develop language fluency because it was never
taught to her. So, teaching your children language skills from a young age is also essential to child
development.
Another skill that is very important for child development is emotion. Emotional skills are
important throughout your child’s entire life as they teach them when to have sympathy and compassion
for others as well as teach them how to deal with the highs and lows that come with life. If your child
does not have proper emotional skills, they will not be able to deal with bad outcomes. If they lack
emotional skills, it could lead to destructive choices when they are older.
To help develop your child’s emotional skills, teaching them to smile and wave when they are
babies is a good place to start. When they get a bit older, teaching them to share is very important. In a
family, because there are multiple people, the family can be very helpful in developing a child’s skills
with the multiple perspectives. To bring this more to foundational building blocks, while your child is
very young, something very helpful for family members to do is to teach children basic emotions. When a
child is feeling a certain way, naming emotions and describing them are important ways for your child to
understand how they are feeling. Once this foundation is set, children can learn how to respond to their
feelings and move forward.
Câu 32: Which of the following could be the best title of the passage?

correct answer to each of the questions from 46 to 50.
The sound of music has changed as society has changed over the years, thus the change in the
sound of music is really a reflection of our cultural evolution. In the beginning humans made music that
closely mimicked the sounds they heard around them in nature in terms of tones and repetitions.
In Indigenous cultures, music played a role in ceremonies and traditions. Traditional instruments
were played, and lyrics were often strongly linked to nature. The sounds of music reflected this close
association that indigenous cultures had with the land and its wildlife. Over time, modern society has lost
this connection. This is reflected in the changing sound of the music and in the changing lyrics of songs
that are sung. With time, more musical instruments were developed and played together, which resulted
in more sophisticated and complex sounds being produced. The beats, rhythms, tempo and lyrics of songs
all changed along with the change in cultures.

Although some indigenous cultures such as many of the African tribes, Native American tribes,
South American ethnic people, and Australian aborigines still retain the playing of their indigenous
music, there have been influences from the western world incorporated into some of the music. Features
of the sound of music have changed over the decades. The sound has definitely gotten louder. The pace
and rhythm in many cases have become faster, possibly reflecting the fast pace of the modern world that
we live in today. However the feature of music bounciness (how spiky and energetic the music feels) has
become less today when compared with the music of the1980s. Techno and reggae music are typical
examples of what is known as bouncy music.
The sound of music has become more complex over history mainly due to the increased migration
of people and their exposure to new elements. Today much of music has sounds with elements from more
than one region. The increasing tendency for music artists to collaborate today is another reason we see
more complexity and diversity in how music sounds.
