![[I] Gender equality in Vietnam has made significant strides over the past few decades, especially in
urban areas. [II] The government has implemented policies aimed at closing the gender gap in
education, health, and employment. [III] However, many challenges remain, particularly in rural areas
where traditional gender roles are more deeply ingrained. [IV] Despite improvements, women in
Vietnam continue to face discrimination in the workplace, unequal access to leadership positions, and
limitations in their economic opportunities.
The primary drivers of gender inequality in Vietnam include cultural norms and economic barriers.
Women are often expected to take on the majority of household duties, limiting their time and energy to
pursue careers. In rural areas, these traditional expectations are even more pronounced, with many
women relegated to agricultural labor or domestic work. On the other hand, urban areas offer better
opportunities for women in terms of education and employment, though the gender pay gap remains
substantial.
Efforts to promote gender equality in Vietnam must address both societal attitudes and structural
barriers. For instance, the government needs to strengthen laws ensuring equal pay for equal work and
improve access to affordable childcare, particularly in rural regions. Moreover, there is a growing need
to empower women through leadership training programs and increase their representation in political
and economic decision-making.
Ultimately, gender equality is not only a matter of fairness but also of national development.
Ensuring that women have equal opportunities to contribute to society benefits the economy and fosters
a more just and prosperous nation.

[I] Gender inequality remains a persistent issue in Vietnam despite significant progress in recent

limiting their access to education, employment, and decision-making roles. [III] Although legal
frameworks have been put in place to ensure gender equality, such as the Law on Gender Equality,
gender disparities in various sectors still persist. [IV]
One key area of inequality is the labor market. Women, on average, earn less than men and are more
likely to be employed in informal sectors, where job security and benefits are limited. Additionally, they

often face challenges in climbing the career ladder due to gender-based stereotypes and discrimination.
Furthermore, cultural expectations place the primary responsibility of childcare and domestic work on
women, which can hinder their professional growth.
Another challenge is the underrepresentation of women in leadership and decision-making positions.
While there have been improvements, women remain vastly outnumbered in top roles within both the
public and private sectors. This gender gap in leadership affects the policies and priorities that are set, as
decisions may not fully reflect the needs and perspectives of women.
In order to reduce gender inequality in Vietnam, greater efforts are needed in education, legal
enforcement, and cultural change. Empowering women economically and promoting their
participation in leadership positions will help ensure a more equitable society.

Read the following passage about Gender Inequality and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer
sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.
[I] Global discussions on gender equality have gained momentum in recent decades, and one of the
primary factors driving this movement is the increased awareness of inequality. [II] Currently, gender
disparities continue to exist in various areas of life, such as education, employment, and political
representation. Predictions suggest that achieving true gender equality globally may take decades if
progress continues at the current pace. [III] Numerous factors contribute to these disparities, leading to
various societal challenges. [IV]
There are several root causes that perpetuate gender inequality. For instance, women in many societies
still face discrimination in the workplace, earning less than men for the same job. Additionally,
traditional gender roles often limit women's opportunities in education and leadership. On the other
hand, there are also positive movements working to empower women. Many organizations and
governments are now advocating for equal opportunities in education and the workplace, offering
programs and policies to reduce the gender gap.
Despite these efforts, gender inequality continues to cause widespread consequences for both
individuals and society. First, gender discrimination in employment results in a lack of financial
independence for women, often leading to poverty. Second, unequal access to education for girls in
certain regions of the world denies them the opportunity to contribute fully to society. These disparities
harm not only women but also hinder the development of entire communities.
Gender equality is a complex issue that requires a deep understanding of both the causes and the
consequences. By focusing on education, equal opportunities, and strong policies, societies can provide
women with the means to live full, independent lives without being hindered by discriminatory
practices.

Read the following passage about Vietnam’s Economic Growth and Key Organizations and mark the
letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions
from 31 to 40.
[I] Vietnam has experienced rapid economic development in recent years, becoming one of the fastest-
growing economies in Asia. The country's growth is fueled by various factors, including foreign
investments, industrialization, and the rise of the service sector. [II] Today, Vietnam’s economy is
diversifying, with major sectors such as manufacturing, agriculture, and tourism playing significant
roles. By 2030, experts predict that the country will continue to expand its economic influence in the
region, especially with strong trade agreements and infrastructure development. [III] Several
organizations in Vietnam have been instrumental in this growth, driving both local and international
partnerships. [IV]
Among the most influential are the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) and the
Ministry of Industry and Trade (MOIT), which support businesses through policy-making, regulations,
and international trade agreements. These organizations help streamline trade, attract foreign direct
investments (FDI), and enhance the country’s global economic standing.
Vietnam’s rise has not come without challenges, however. For instance, the rapid industrialization has
led to concerns about environmental degradation. Cities such as Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City face
pollution issues, and industries sometimes fail to comply with environmental standards. Moreover,
urbanization has increased demand for housing and public services, which puts pressure on government
resources. These challenges require careful attention and solutions that balance economic growth with
sustainability.
To ensure long-term prosperity, Vietnam will need to continue strengthening the roles of these key
organizations while addressing the social and environmental impacts of its growth.

Read the following passage about Vietnam and Other Important Organizations and mark the letter A,
B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 23
to 30.
Vietnam is a country with a rich history and a growing economy. While the country’s largest cities, like
Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, continue to develop rapidly, the rural areas are still facing significant
challenges. According to the World Bank, poverty rates have significantly decreased over the past two
decades, but rural areas still lack access to basic services such as healthcare and education.
International organizations, like the United Nations and the World Health Organization, play a key role
in supporting Vietnam’s development. These organizations provide funding for healthcare programs,
educational projects, and infrastructure development. For example, the WHO has been working closely
with Vietnam to combat diseases like malaria and tuberculosis.
The Vietnamese government is also collaborating with non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to
tackle environmental issues, such as deforestation and pollution. In the Mekong Delta, many NGOs are
working to protect the region’s unique biodiversity and improve the livelihoods of local farmers.
Technology has also become a significant tool in Vietnam’s development. Programs like the Digital
Education Initiative, funded by international organizations, aim to provide rural students with access to

middle class. Experts predict that by 2030, ASEAN’s combined GDP will be one of the largest in the
world. [III] This economic growth is driven by a variety of factors, which also give rise to both
challenges and opportunities for the region. [IV]

![Several pull factors attract people to ASEAN’s growing urban centers. For example, cities like
Singapore, Jakarta, and Bangkok offer more job opportunities, especially in the manufacturing,
technology, and service sectors. They also provide higher wages and better living standards compared to
rural areas. Conversely, many people are pushed out of rural areas due to limited access to education,
healthcare, and employment. Natural disasters, like floods and droughts, also disrupt agricultural
livelihoods, forcing farmers to seek work in cities.
However, rapid urbanisation brings a number of challenges. One major issue is the increased strain on
infrastructure. As cities expand, there is often not enough investment in public services, leading to
traffic congestion, air pollution, and inadequate healthcare facilities. Additionally, the growing
population can lead to a lack of affordable housing, resulting in the development of informal
settlements.
In conclusion, while ASEAN's urbanisation offers economic growth and improved living standards for
many, it also presents significant environmental and social challenges. Addressing these issues
requires careful urban planning and policies that balance growth with sustainability.

regional security. In fact, ASEAN's cooperation with these organizations has been instrumental in
addressing common challenges.
When ASEAN collaborates with the United Nations, it focuses on peacekeeping and humanitarian
issues. For instance, ASEAN countries have supported UN peacekeeping missions in conflict zones,
helping to restore stability. In trade, ASEAN's partnership with the World Trade Organization has
facilitated the region’s participation in global markets, promoting economic growth and development.
Additionally, ASEAN recognizes the importance of working with other organizations to address
environmental challenges. Countries like Japan and China have partnered with ASEAN in initiatives to
combat climate change and build sustainable infrastructure. These efforts help strengthen the region's
resilience against natural disasters and promote green development.
Looking ahead, ASEAN's collaboration with international organizations will continue to be crucial. By
combining regional strengths with global cooperation, ASEAN aims to ensure that its member
states thrive while contributing to global peace and prosperity.

Read the following passage about ASEAN and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.
[I] The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) plays a crucial role in regional cooperation
and stability. Established in 1967, it aims to promote peace, economic growth, and cultural exchange
among its ten member countries. ASEAN's influence extends beyond its borders, as it also engages
with global organizations to address issues such as trade, security, and environmental challenges.
[II] One of the primary goals of ASEAN is to foster economic cooperation. Through initiatives like the
ASEAN Free Trade Area (AFTA), member states have lowered tariffs, allowing for the free flow of
goods and services within the region. Moreover, ASEAN works with other international organizations
like the United Nations (UN) and the World Trade Organization (WTO) to strengthen its global
economic standing.
[III] However, ASEAN faces challenges in balancing the interests of its diverse member countries.
Differences in political systems, economic development, and social issues often complicate decision-
making processes. Additionally, the region's relations with major global powers such as the United
States and China can impact ASEAN's ability to maintain neutrality and security in the face of regional
tensions.
[IV] Despite these challenges, ASEAN remains a vital actor in the global arena. Through its ongoing
collaborations with international organizations, it continues to address regional and global issues,
such as climate change, public health, and terrorism. By prioritizing dialogue and cooperation, ASEAN
seeks to create a stable and prosperous future for its people and the broader international community.

[I] With the rapid advancements in technology, education is undergoing a significant transformation.

traditional classrooms cannot match. Virtual classrooms, educational apps, and interactive video
tutorials are making learning more accessible to people of all ages.
[III] However, this new wave of learning comes with both benefits and challenges. On the positive side,
students can learn at their own pace, personalize their learning experience, and gain skills that are
tailored to their individual needs. But, the shift towards online education can also lead to issues such as
digital inequality, where students in less-developed areas lack access to the necessary technology and
internet connectivity. Additionally, without proper guidance, some learners may struggle to stay
motivated and engaged.
[IV] To fully harness the potential of new learning methods, educational systems need to adapt. This
includes ensuring that digital tools are available to all students, providing adequate support for remote
learners, and encouraging a balance between online and in-person interactions. By thoughtfully
integrating technology, the future of education can offer greater opportunities for learning without
sacrificing quality.

Read the following passage about ASEAN and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.
[I] In today’s world, students are increasingly taking innovative approaches to learning English. [II]
While conventional methods like attending classes and using textbooks remain essential, many students
are exploring different avenues that fit their personal preferences and lifestyles. [III]Technology, in
particular, offers a wealth of resources to enhance learning. [IV]
One popular method is using mobile apps and online platforms that offer interactive lessons tailored to
individual levels. These apps often use gamification techniques to keep students engaged while helping
them build their vocabulary, grammar, and speaking skills. For example, Duolingo and Babbel are
widely used to help learners practice daily through bite-sized lessons.
Another approach gaining popularity is watching movies and TV shows in English. Many students
choose to watch their favorite films or series in the original language to improve their listening skills
and learn more about cultural nuances. Subtitles can also be used to aid comprehension and reinforce
new vocabulary.
In addition, some students take part in online conversation exchanges where they practice speaking with
native speakers. These exchanges, either through video calls or messaging platforms, help students build
confidence in their speaking abilities and gain familiarity with casual or colloquial expressions. As
English has become a global lingua franca, students are adapting their learning strategies to be more
effective and enjoyable. By embracing new technologies and learning methods, students not only
improve their language skills but also make the process more engaging and relevant to their lives.

[I] Education is undergoing a revolution, with new methods of learning gaining momentum in schools

allowing students to access educational resources at any time. This change enables a more personalized
learning experience, where students can learn at their own pace and revisit materials as needed.

[II] Another major advancement is the use of gamification in education. By turning lessons into
interactive challenges, students are motivated to engage with the content more deeply. Points, levels,
and rewards for completing tasks encourage participation and make learning both fun and rewarding.
[III] Furthermore, virtual reality (VR) is beginning to reshape how students experience subjects such as
history, science, and even art. With VR, students can explore ancient civilizations, conduct virtual
chemistry experiments, or experience famous works of art up close, making abstract concepts tangible
and exciting.
[IV] While these innovations are promising, it is important not to overlook the value of traditional
teaching methods. Face-to-face instruction, combined with modern technology, ensures that
students receive the benefits of both personal interaction and technological advancements. A
balanced approach can provide a more comprehensive educational experience that nurtures both
intellectual growth and social skills.

Read the following passage about Vietnam Joining International Organizations and mark the letter
A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from
31 to 40.
[I] In recent decades, Vietnam has increasingly integrated into the global community by joining various
international organizations. This shift reflects the country's commitment to participating in global
governance, promoting economic development, and enhancing diplomatic relations. By joining
organizations like the United Nations, ASEAN, and the World Trade Organization, Vietnam has gained
access to wider international markets and strengthened its global influence.
[II] One of the main benefits of joining international organizations is economic growth. For instance,
membership in the World Trade Organization has provided Vietnam with opportunities to expand
exports, attract foreign investment, and improve its manufacturing and agricultural sectors.
Additionally, Vietnam’s participation in ASEAN has helped facilitate regional cooperation, leading to
economic stability and collective growth among Southeast Asian nations.
[III] However, there are challenges associated with this global integration. Vietnam must meet the
requirements set by international bodies, such as adhering to global standards in trade, human rights, and
environmental protection. These obligations can sometimes limit the country’s autonomy in decision-
making, especially when national interests conflict with international expectations.
[IV] Despite these challenges, the benefits outweigh the costs. By becoming part of international
organizations, Vietnam has improved its diplomatic relations, gained access to international aid, and
attracted more tourists and investors. The country’s participation in global governance has positioned it
as a key player in regional and global affairs, contributing to its overall development.

Read the following passage about preserving Vietnamese culture and mark the letter A, B, C or D on
your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.
[I] In recent years, the issue of preserving Vietnamese culture has gained considerable attention, as rapid
modernization and globalization pose challenges to traditional customs. [II] The government has started
implementing stronger measures to protect and promote Vietnam’s cultural heritage, making this a
central part of national policies. [III] These measures include strengthening laws against the
destruction of historical sites, supporting traditional art forms, and promoting cultural education. [IV]
These efforts are crucial because maintaining cultural diversity not only preserves national identity but
also fosters unity and a sense of belonging among citizens.
Several laws have been enacted to protect Vietnam’s cultural landmarks from commercial exploitation
and natural disasters. Additionally, there has been increased funding for the preservation of ancient
temples, pagodas, and other historical monuments. Traditional arts such as water puppetry, folk music,
and dance are receiving more support through government-sponsored programs. Education programs are
also being introduced to raise awareness among the younger generation about the importance of cultural
preservation.
While these government actions are necessary, the success of cultural preservation also depends on the
involvement of local communities. Citizens must actively participate in safeguarding their cultural
practices, supporting their local artisans, and respecting their heritage sites.
In conclusion, the preservation of Vietnamese culture is a vital issue that requires cooperation
from all sectors. By combining government policies, community involvement, and public awareness,
Vietnam can successfully protect its rich cultural heritage for future generations.

Read the following passage about Regulating Digital Culture and mark the letter A, B, C or D on
your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 23 to 30.
In recent years, governments around the world have been increasingly focusing on regulating digital
culture. With the rapid growth of the internet and social media, digital platforms have become essential
parts of daily life. However, these platforms also raise concerns about privacy, misinformation, and the
spread of harmful content. In response, many countries have begun to implement stricter laws to
monitor online activities and protect their citizens. For example, the European Union has introduced the
Digital Services Act, which requires large online platforms to take more responsibility for content
moderation.
At the same time, governments are also working to promote positive digital culture. They are
supporting online education programs and encouraging the creation of digital content that reflects
cultural diversity. By doing so, they aim to ensure that the internet remains a space for learning,
creativity, and positive interaction.
However, this increased regulation has sparked debate about freedom of expression. Critics argue that
strict regulations could limit creativity and suppress online voices. In some countries, there have been
protests against government control over digital platforms, as many believe that censorship could harm
the free flow of information.

to 40.
[I] Globalisation has accelerated in recent decades, bringing with it both opportunities and challenges.
One of the key concerns that arises in this global movement is the effect on cultural identity. [II] As
more people across the world come into contact with different cultures, traditional practices and
languages are at risk of being overshadowed by dominant global cultures. It is estimated that by 2050,

nearly one in five languages will be at risk of disappearing. [III] Cultural preservation, therefore,
becomes crucial in maintaining the diversity that makes our world rich and unique. [IV]
Many factors contribute to the erosion of traditional culture. For example, the widespread use of social
media and digital platforms has led to a homogenisation of cultural practices, with people around the
world increasingly adopting similar styles of dress, entertainment, and communication. Additionally,
economic pressures often encourage the younger generation to abandon traditional occupations in favour
of more lucrative, modern jobs in urban centres. In contrast, there are efforts to preserve cultural
heritage, such as the promotion of indigenous languages and traditional arts, which aim to protect these
valuable aspects of human history and identity.
The process of cultural preservation involves several complex challenges. First, there is the issue of
balancing modernisation with tradition. As cities grow and global economies evolve, maintaining
traditional practices often requires significant effort from both local governments and communities.
Moreover, the increasing dominance of global entertainment media has made it difficult for local
cultural forms to survive, as younger generations are drawn to global trends. Second, cultural
preservation may face obstacles when it competes with economic development. For instance, tourism
might promote cultural heritage, but it can also lead to the commercialisation of traditions, reducing
their authenticity.
Cultural preservation is a complex and vital issue, and understanding the causes and effects of
cultural change is essential. With effective policies and community engagement, societies can protect
and celebrate their unique cultural identities while embracing the benefits of globalisation.

There are various initiatives aimed at raising awareness among youth about the importance of cultural
preservation. For example, the government has supported programs that teach traditional arts, literature,
and local customs in schools and universities. Furthermore, they are encouraged to engage in
community projects that showcase Vietnamese culture through festivals, exhibitions, and performances.
However, there are also challenges associated with this movement. The rapid pace of modernization and
the influence of foreign cultures have led to a decline in interest among some youth in traditional
practices. Many young people are more attracted to modern entertainment and lifestyles, which
sometimes conflict with the values and practices of their cultural heritage.
To address these issues, the Vietnamese government has developed policies that offer incentives for
youth to participate in cultural activities. These efforts not only aim to preserve Vietnam’s traditions but
also to help the younger generation feel a sense of pride and belonging to their cultural roots. By
balancing modernization with cultural conservation, Vietnam hopes to create a dynamic, globally
engaged youth population that is deeply connected to its history and heritage.

Read the following passage about New Graduates After University and mark the letter A, B, C or D
on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 23 to 30.
After completing their university degrees, many graduates find themselves at a crossroads. Some may be
excited about starting their careers, while others may feel uncertain about their future paths. The job
market today is highly competitive, and securing a job that aligns with their degree is not always
guaranteed. Many graduates may find themselves in entry-level positions, while others pursue further
education, such as master's degrees or professional certifications, to improve their chances of success.
In some cases, graduates are choosing to take a different approach. Instead of immediately seeking
traditional office jobs, they are opting for internships, freelancing, or even starting their own businesses.
This flexibility offers them a chance to gain real-world experience and to build their portfolios before
committing to a long-term career. Additionally, the rise of remote work has given graduates the freedom
to work from anywhere, allowing them to gain valuable experience while exploring different parts of the
world.
However, some graduates face challenges in transitioning from university life to the professional world.
Many struggle with time management, adjusting to a work-life balance, or coping with the demands of
their first job. Despite these challenges, it is important for new graduates to stay motivated, continue
learning, and seek mentorship to guide them through this critical phase of their lives.
As the world continues to evolve, the skills required in the workforce also change. New graduates are
expected to be adaptable and equipped with not only technical knowledge but also soft skills like

University education provides young people with the opportunity to gain advanced academic knowledge
and develop critical thinking skills. Graduates of universities often find themselves in positions that
require higher-level qualifications, such as in law, medicine, or academia. However, university education
can be expensive, and the pressure to complete a degree is intense, leaving many unsure about the financial
and emotional costs involved.
In contrast, vocational training programs and apprenticeships offer school leavers a more direct route to
employment. These programs focus on practical skills in fields like construction, hospitality, or
technology. They often take less time to complete and come with lower costs. Additionally, many of
these programs offer paid work opportunities during training, allowing students to earn an income while
learning.
The decision between university and alternative education depends on a variety of factors, including
individual interests, career goals, and financial resources. Ultimately, both paths can lead to successful
careers, but careful consideration of one's personal circumstances is necessary to make the best choice.

Read the following passage about Education Options for School Leavers and mark the letter A, B, C
or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to
40.
[I] In recent years, the way students approach education has undergone significant changes, with many
now seeking alternatives to traditional methods. [II] By 2030, experts predict that a large number of
students will be turning to online learning platforms and new forms of education, which could reshape
the educational landscape. [III] Various factors contribute to this shift, leading to both opportunities and
challenges in the world of education. [IV]
Traditional classroom education, with its rigid schedules and locations, often doesn’t accommodate the
diverse learning styles and needs of students. For example, some students struggle with a one-size-fits-
all curriculum, and others find it difficult to keep up with fast-paced classroom instruction. On the other
hand, alternative educational models, like online courses and personalized learning, offer more
flexibility and tailored learning experiences. These alternatives provide access to a wider range of
subjects and skills, allowing students to progress at their own pace.
However, the rise of new educational approaches comes with its own set of challenges. First, some
online learning platforms lack the necessary interaction and mentorship that traditional classroom
settings provide. This can result in students feeling isolated or unsupported, leading to lower motivation

and engagement. Additionally, students from disadvantaged backgrounds may not have access to the
technology or internet required for online education, exacerbating inequalities in educational
opportunities.
The future of education will likely rely on finding a balance between traditional and alternative learning
methods. By carefully integrating new technologies and offering equitable access to education, we
can ensure that all students benefit from the opportunities these new models offer, while still
maintaining the supportive elements of traditional education.

[I] As students finish their secondary education, they face a wide array of choices regarding their future
educational paths. [II] The decision between pursuing higher education, vocational training, or entering
the workforce can be daunting for many. [III] There are several factors influencing this decision, such
as personal interests, financial constraints, and long-term career goals. [IV]
Higher education, such as university or college, offers students the opportunity to gain specialized
knowledge in various fields, but it often comes with high tuition fees and years of study. On the other
hand, vocational training provides practical skills and shorter programs, allowing students to enter the
workforce more quickly. Additionally, some students choose to directly enter employment, gaining on-
the-job experience while earning a salary.

The choice between these options has far-reaching consequences for students' career trajectories and
personal lives. Higher education can open doors to professions that require advanced degrees, such as
law, medicine, and engineering. However, for many, the cost of university education can be prohibitive.
In contrast, vocational training programs are often more affordable and can lead to immediate
employment in sectors such as healthcare, construction, and technology. On the downside, some jobs
may not offer the same financial or career growth potential as those requiring a university degree.
Ultimately, students must carefully consider their personal circumstances and aspirations. Whether
pursuing further education or entering the workforce directly, each option comes with its own set of
advantages and challenges. Therefore, thorough research and planning are essential for making an
informed decision about the future.

Read the following passage about How to Be Independent as a Young Student and mark the letter A,
B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 23
to 30.
Being independent is an important skill for young students. It helps them manage their time, solve
problems, and take responsibility for their own learning. One way to develop independence is to practice
good time management. By creating a study schedule and setting clear goals, students can stay on track
and avoid procrastination. For example, breaking down big tasks into smaller ones can make them feel
less overwhelming.
Another key to independence is learning to make decisions. Students should start by making small
choices, such as deciding what to eat or how to organize their study materials. Gradually, they can take
on bigger decisions, like choosing extracurricular activities or planning their study routine. These
decisions build confidence and self-reliance.
Additionally, students can become more independent by seeking help when needed. Asking teachers,
classmates, or family members for advice shows that independence does not mean doing everything
alone. It’s important to know when to ask for help and how to use the resources available to you.
Finally, developing a growth mindset is essential for independence. A growth mindset means believing
that effort leads to improvement. By embracing challenges and learning from mistakes, students can
become more resilient and capable of solving problems on their own.

Read the following passage about The Importance of Choosing Education for the Future and mark
the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following
questions from 31 to 40.
[I] In today’s fast-paced world, selecting the right educational path has become more important than
ever for students. With a multitude of courses and career options available, the decision is often
overwhelming. This choice not only impacts personal growth but also plays a crucial role in shaping
the future of society.
[II] One of the primary factors influencing this decision is the rapidly changing job market.
Technological advancements, such as automation and artificial intelligence, are transforming many
industries. As a result, students must consider the skills that will be in high demand in the future. Fields
like engineering, healthcare, and technology are predicted to continue growing, while some traditional
jobs may disappear.
[III] There are both push and pull factors at play in students' decision-making process. Push factors
include the pressure of competition, the fear of being left behind, and financial constraints that make
students seek practical courses with high employability rates. On the other hand, pull factors are the
attraction of higher salaries, job stability, and the opportunity to contribute meaningfully to society,
which often draw students toward certain fields.
[IV] Choosing an educational path is not an easy decision, as it requires a balance between personal
interests and future prospects. Students must weigh their passion for a subject against the reality of job
market trends. By carefully evaluating available options and seeking advice from experts, they can
ensure that they are making informed choices that will not only benefit their careers but also contribute
to their long-term satisfaction.

[I] The expansion of educational opportunities has significantly increased over recent years, with more
students now having access to a variety of academic options. [II] In many parts of the world, students
have the chance to pursue higher education both locally and abroad, and by 2030, it is expected that the
number of students enrolling in tertiary education will have doubled. [III] Several factors contribute to
this global trend, leading to new opportunities but also presenting challenges. [IV]
One key factor driving students to explore different educational paths is the increasing availability of
scholarships and financial aid, making education more accessible. Additionally, many students are
motivated by the desire to gain skills for better job prospects, and universities now offer specialized
programs that cater to emerging industries. Furthermore, globalisation has made it easier for them to
study abroad, allowing them to experience different cultures and perspectives, thus enhancing their
education.
However, the rise in educational opportunities brings about various challenges. First, the pressure to
succeed in a highly competitive environment can lead to stress and mental health issues among students.
Furthermore, with the increasing number of students pursuing higher education, universities are
struggling to provide adequate facilities and resources. As a result, some students find it difficult to
receive individual attention or access essential learning tools.
The increased availability of education offers many benefits, but it also has significant
implications that need to be carefully considered. By improving mental health support and ensuring
that educational institutions keep up with the growing demand, we can provide students with the
resources and opportunities they need to thrive.

Read the following passage about exploring Educational Options for Young Students and mark the
letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions
from 31 to 40.
[I] Over the past few decades, education systems have undergone significant changes, driven by the
increasing demand for modern learning methods. [II] Today, more than half of young students
worldwide are attending schools that emphasize digital literacy and problem-solving skills. By 2030,
experts predict that the majority of young learners will be educated in environments that blend
traditional teaching with advanced technology. [III] Several factors have contributed to this shift, with
technological advancements being a key influence. [IV] While there are multiple advantages, the
transition also brings about challenges for both students and educators.
In many countries, the demand for improved education options pushes governments to invest in more
diverse learning opportunities. For instance, schools are offering specialized programs like STEM
(Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) to foster critical thinking from an early age. On the
other hand, there are pull factors drawing students toward private institutions, such as a wider variety of
extracurricular activities and personalized attention due to smaller class sizes. The increased availability
of online education also offers flexibility, enabling students to access resources and learn at their own
pace.
The integration of digital tools in education, however, has far-reaching effects. First, it raises concerns
about the digital divide, where students in low-income areas may lack access to essential technology,
widening the gap between wealthy and disadvantaged students. Moreover, the shift to online platforms
has led to a decrease in face-to-face interaction, which can affect social development and
communication skills. Lastly, while technological advancements provide new opportunities, they also
create challenges in terms of balancing screen time and traditional learning methods.
Educational reform is a complex issue that requires a holistic understanding of both the benefits
and challenges. By implementing thoughtful policies that address these concerns, it is possible to
provide students with diverse, high-quality educational experiences without exacerbating inequalities or
compromising social development.

AI can assist language learners in several ways, enhancing both the learning process and the efficiency of
acquiring English. For instance, AI-powered apps and software can help learners practice pronunciation,
vocabulary, and grammar through interactive exercises. Moreover, AI systems can offer personalized
learning experiences, adapting to each learner’s specific needs and pace, making language learning more
effective. On the other hand, AI also presents challenges. Over-reliance on AI tools can lead to the
reduction of human interaction, which is crucial for language acquisition. Without real conversations,
learners may not fully develop their speaking and listening skills.
In terms of learning outcomes, the impact of AI on students varies. While AI can help students learn new
words and structures quickly, it may also encourage passivity, as some learners may prefer passive modes
of learning, such as watching videos or listening to AI-generated audio, rather than actively engaging in
conversations. This could potentially affect the development of practical communication skills. Another
issue is the lack of emotional intelligence in AI-based systems. AI can provide accurate language
correction but cannot offer the same level of emotional support or understanding that a human teacher can.
As AI continues to evolve, it is important to find a balance between using AI tools and maintaining
essential face-to-face interaction. By integrating AI with traditional teaching methods, language learners
can enjoy the benefits of both, achieving greater fluency and cultural understanding while still honing their
practical skills.

In fact, technology has already led to substantial shifts in the job market. Automation, for example, has
already replaced many manual jobs in sectors such as manufacturing and agriculture. While this has led to
efficiency gains, it has also resulted in job losses. The fear is that many low-skilled workers will be left
behind as businesses transition to more automated operations. On the other hand, technology also creates
new jobs, especially in fields like software development, data science, and digital marketing.
Governments and international organizations are working together to help businesses and workers
adapt to these changes. Some countries have established digital infrastructure to support businesses in
rural areas, enabling them to connect with global markets. Furthermore, education and training programs
are being developed to help workers acquire skills that align with the demands of the modern economy.
One promising example is the use of mobile technology in Africa, which has transformed various sectors.
Mobile banking, for instance, has enabled millions of people in sub-Saharan Africa to access financial
services for the first time. This has helped small businesses grow by giving them easier access to loans and
facilitating transactions. Similarly, blockchain technology is revolutionizing supply chain management by
making it more transparent and efficient.
In conclusion, while technology has brought both challenges and opportunities, it is clear that its role in
economic development will only continue to grow. For countries that embrace these changes, technology
could be a key driver of economic prosperity in the future.

Read the following passage about The Role of Artificial Intelligence in National Security in the Modern
Age and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the
following questions from 31 to 40.
[I] In recent years, the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in national security has grown significantly,
becoming an essential tool for governments worldwide. [II] As AI technology advances, its applications are
increasingly relied upon to enhance defense capabilities, intelligence gathering, and public safety. By 2030,
it is predicted that AI will be a central component of most national security strategies, reshaping how
governments approach defense and cybersecurity. [III] Various factors contribute to the growing reliance
on AI in this field, leading to both opportunities and challenges. [IV]
AI offers several advantages in national security. One key benefit is its ability to process vast amounts of
data quickly and accurately, which can help in detecting threats, monitoring suspicious activities, and
analyzing patterns for preventive measures. Additionally, AI systems can assist in automating tasks such as
surveillance, reducing the need for human intervention, and enhancing efficiency in response times.
However, AI also poses significant risks. The use of AI in cyber warfare, for instance, can potentially
enable hostile states or organizations to carry out attacks that are harder to trace and defend against.
One of the most significant challenges in using AI for national security is ensuring the ethical use of the
technology. For instance, AI-powered surveillance systems could be used to infringe on privacy rights,
raising concerns about civil liberties and government overreach. Another concern is the potential for AI to
make autonomous decisions in military operations, where the risk of unintended consequences could be

Social media, in particular, has become one of the dominant forms of communication, enabling people to
connect globally in real-time. Platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram allow users to share
opinions, experiences, and media with vast audiences. The spread of digital media has also had a profound
impact on journalism, with citizen journalism becoming increasingly prevalent. People no longer rely
solely on professional reporters to provide news; instead, they can report and share stories themselves.
However, the rise of digital media has also raised concerns about misinformation. The speed at which
information spreads on social media can result in false or misleading stories being shared rapidly,
sometimes causing harm before corrections can be made. Additionally, the dominance of certain large
corporations in the media industry has led to concerns about the concentration of media ownership and its
impact on diversity and fairness in reporting.
Despite these challenges, mass media continues to evolve. The introduction of new technologies, such as
artificial intelligence and virtual reality, promises to further change how we interact with media in the
coming years. As the media landscape continues to evolve, it remains to be seen how it will shape public
opinion, political discourse, and our understanding of the world.

Read the following passage about The Development of Mass Media and mark the letter A, B, C or D on
your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.
[I] The growth of mass media in recent decades has been one of the most transformative phenomena in
global communication. From traditional print media to digital platforms, the evolution of mass media has
reshaped how people receive and share information. [II] Today, mass media encompasses various forms,
including newspapers, radio, television, and, increasingly, online platforms such as social media and
streaming services. By 2030, experts predict that digital media will dominate, overtaking traditional media
in terms of global consumption. [III] Several factors have driven this rapid growth, but the consequences,
both positive and negative, are still unfolding. [IV]
One key factor behind the growth of mass media is technological advancement. Innovations such as the
internet and smartphones have allowed people to access information instantly, anywhere, and anytime. This
has made digital media more accessible and appealing, especially to younger audiences. Additionally, the
increasing use of social media platforms has provided a space for individuals to participate in content
creation, leading to a democratization of information. On the other hand, traditional media, such as print
newspapers and broadcast television, have struggled to maintain their audience base.
However, the rise of mass media has also brought challenges. One significant issue is the spread of
misinformation. With the ease of sharing content online, false or misleading information can quickly go
viral, leading to widespread confusion. Another concern is the growing concentration of media ownership,
where a few large corporations control a substantial portion of the media landscape. This can limit the
diversity of viewpoints and result in biased reporting.
In conclusion, while mass media has revolutionized the way we communicate and access information,
it has also created challenges that require careful management to ensure its positive impact on society.

The main push factors behind the growth of multinational media include the increasing demand for diverse
content, the growth of international markets, and advancements in technology. As populations become
more interconnected, people demand media that reflects their varied cultures and interests, which can be
met by global media companies. Moreover, these corporations can tap into emerging markets in developing
countries, creating new revenue streams. The internet and digital platforms have further facilitated the
expansion of multinational media by breaking down geographical barriers and allowing content to reach a
global audience instantly.
However, this globalisation of media comes with both positive and negative consequences. On the one
hand, multinational media companies provide access to information and entertainment from around the
world, helping to promote cultural exchange. On the other hand, the concentration of media ownership
raises concerns about media diversity and the potential for these companies to dominate public discourse.
Additionally, the expansion of multinational media often leads to the overshadowing of local media
outlets, which may struggle to compete with the financial resources and global reach of their multinational
counterparts.
To ensure that multinational media development is beneficial, it is essential to carefully regulate the
industry and promote a balanced flow of information that respects both global and local interests.

[I] Over the past decade, there has been a significant increase in the number of students choosing to pursue
degrees in communication. [II] By 2030, it is predicted that communication-related fields will be among
the top areas of study for university students globally. [III] This shift is driven by various factors, each of
which contributes to the growing popularity of communication programs. [IV]
The push factors include limited career opportunities in other fields. Many students find that their options
in traditional professions are limited, and they often seek alternatives with better prospects.
Communication, being a dynamic and evolving field, offers students the chance to develop a wide range of
skills applicable to many industries. Moreover, the increasing digitalisation of society means that industries
are constantly looking for professionals who can effectively navigate online platforms, manage content,
and engage with diverse audiences. On the other hand, pull factors include the wide variety of career paths
that a degree in communication opens up. Graduates can work in advertising, public relations, media,
journalism, and corporate communications, which are sectors that often offer competitive salaries and
ample opportunities for career growth.
However, the choice to study communication also has its challenges. One notable issue is the
oversaturation of certain sectors, particularly journalism, where the demand for jobs does not always meet
the supply of qualified candidates. Furthermore, the rapid pace of technological change in the media
industry means that students must continuously update their skills to stay relevant.
The growing interest in communication studies reflects the demand for professionals who can
effectively manage information in a world that is increasingly connected and information-driven. By
understanding both the advantages and challenges of the field, students can make more informed decisions
about their career paths.

[I] Wildlife conservation has become a critical global issue as many species face extinction due to human
activities such as habitat destruction, poaching, and climate change. Protecting wildlife is crucial not only
for preserving biodiversity but also for maintaining ecological balance. Experts warn that without urgent
action, many species could vanish in the coming decades, which would have devastating consequences on
ecosystems.
[II] One effective approach to wildlife conservation is habitat preservation. By creating protected areas,
such as national parks and wildlife reserves, governments and conservation organisations ensure
that animals have safe environments to live and breed. Additionally, reducing human encroachment on
these areas through better land-use policies and stricter regulations helps protect these vital habitats in the
long term.
[III] Another critical strategy involves combating poaching and illegal wildlife trade. Enhanced law
enforcement, international collaboration, and the use of advanced technology such as drones and satellite
surveillance are instrumental in detecting and preventing poaching activities. Public education campaigns
are also essential, as they raise awareness about the impact of poaching and encourage ethical behavior
towards wildlife.
[IV] Supporting sustainable practices, such as eco-tourism and responsible resource management, can also
contribute to wildlife conservation. By promoting eco-friendly industries and sustainable farming
techniques, human activities can coexist more harmoniously with nature. Additionally, captive breeding
programs in zoos and wildlife sanctuaries help rebuild populations of endangered species, providing a
safety net for animals on the brink of extinction.

need for stronger wildlife protection measures has become more urgent. [II] Today, many species face the
risk of extinction, with some already classified as endangered. By 2030, experts predict that the number of
critically endangered species could double if current trends continue. [III] Governments are implementing
various strategies to counter this alarming trend, but the effectiveness of these measures depends on global
cooperation and sustainable practices. [IV]
One major effort involves strengthening wildlife laws and regulations. For example, many countries have
enacted stricter penalties for poaching and illegal trade in animal products. These laws are accompanied by
better enforcement and monitoring systems to ensure that violators are caught and punished. Moreover,
governments are allocating more resources to create and maintain protected areas, such as national parks
and wildlife reserves, where animals can thrive without human interference.
However, wildlife protection is not only about laws and enforcement; it also requires addressing the root
causes of habitat destruction. The expansion of urban areas, agricultural land, and infrastructure projects
often leads to deforestation and the loss of ecosystems. Governments are now focusing on promoting
sustainable land-use practices, such as reforestation and the preservation of key wildlife corridors that
connect fragmented habitats. These strategies aim to minimize human impact on wildlife while ensuring
that development can proceed in an environmentally responsible way.
Despite these efforts, wildlife protection remains a challenging issue. Deforestation, illegal hunting, and
climate change continue to threaten animal populations worldwide. The future of many species depends not
only on effective policy but also on public awareness and international collaboration. If governments,
environmental organizations, and individuals work together, it is possible to protect endangered species
and ensure that wildlife continues to play an integral role in the planet's ecosystems.

Read the following passage about Wildlife conservation and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer
sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.
[I] In recent years, wildlife conservation efforts have gained significant attention from governments and
environmental organizations around the world. National parks and wildlife reserves are considered key
areas for the protection of endangered species. [II] These protected areas serve as sanctuaries for animals,
ensuring they are free from the dangers of poaching and habitat destruction. By 2030, experts predict that
the number of protected wildlife areas could double if current trends in conservation continue. [III]
Governments and organizations are adopting various strategies to improve the effectiveness of these
areas, but their success depends on global cooperation and a commitment to sustainable practices. [IV]
One major initiative involves strengthening anti-poaching laws and regulations. For example, many
countries have introduced stricter penalties for poaching and illegal trade in animal products. These laws
are backed by increased patrols and surveillance, ensuring that violators are caught and prosecuted.
Additionally, governments are investing in the creation of wildlife corridors to allow animals to migrate
freely between protected areas, reducing the risk of inbreeding and ensuring healthy populations.
However, protecting wildlife is not only about enforcement; it also involves addressing the underlying
causes of habitat loss. The expansion of agriculture, logging, and infrastructure projects continues to
threaten ecosystems within and around protected areas. Governments are now focusing on promoting
sustainable land-use practices, such as reforestation and the preservation of key habitats that are critical for
wildlife survival. These strategies aim to minimize human impact on wildlife while promoting
development in a responsible way.
Despite these efforts, wildlife conservation remains a complex and ongoing challenge. Habitat destruction,
illegal hunting, and climate change continue to threaten species worldwide. The future of many animals
depends not only on effective policy but also on public awareness and international collaboration. If
governments, environmental organizations, and local communities work together, it is possible to
safeguard endangered species and ensure they play an essential role in maintaining ecological balance.

Read the following passage about Protecting Endangered Species and mark the letter A, B, C or D on
your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.
[I] Over the past decades, the number of endangered species worldwide has been steadily increasing. This
phenomenon is primarily driven by human activities, such as habitat destruction, poaching, and climate
change. Conservation efforts have been made to address these issues, but much more needs to be
done to protect vulnerable wildlife.
[II] One of the main threats to endangered species is habitat loss. Deforestation, urbanisation, and
agricultural expansion have destroyed vast areas of natural habitats, forcing many animals to relocate or
face extinction. Additionally, illegal hunting and the trade of endangered species for their fur, bones, and
other body parts remain significant threats, despite global regulations.
[III] In response to these challenges, a variety of conservation strategies have been implemented. Protected
areas such as national parks and wildlife reserves are established to conserve habitats and offer sanctuary
to endangered species. Furthermore, stricter anti-poaching laws have been enforced in many regions to
curb illegal hunting. International collaboration has also played a crucial role in the fight against wildlife
trafficking.
[IV] While progress has been made, there is still much work to be done. Enhanced public awareness and
education on the importance of biodiversity are essential to garner more support for wildlife conservation.
Additionally, innovative technologies such as drones and satellite monitoring are helping to track animal
populations and combat illegal activities. Governments, NGOs, and local communities must continue to
work together to protect the most vulnerable species from extinction.

Vietnam has made significant strides in promoting gender equality in recent years. Women in Vietnam now have access to better education and employment opportunities than ever before. The government has implemented policies to reduce gender discrimination in the workplace and increase female participation in leadership roles. However, challenges still exist. In many rural areas, traditional gender roles remain strong, and women continue to face barriers in areas such as land ownership and access to healthcare. One of the key issues in Vietnam is the gender pay gap. Women, on average, earn less than men for doing the same work. While there have been improvements in the legal framework, the gap persists in many industries, especially in the private sector. The government has introduced measures to address this issue, but progress is slow. In the political sphere, Vietnam has seen an increase in female representation. Women now make up a significant portion of the National Assembly, and there is growing awareness of the importance of D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L gender-balanced decision-making. Nevertheless, women are still underrepresented in their high-ranking political positions. To promote gender equality further, many NGOs and international organizations are working with local communities to challenge traditional gender norms and promote women's rights. Technology is also playing an increasing role in raising awareness and empowering women. Through digital platforms, women are connecting, sharing experiences, and advocating for change.

- 4. [I] Gender equalityin Vietnam has made significant strides over the past few decades, especially in urban areas. [II] The government has implemented policies aimed at closing the gender gap in education, health, and employment. [III] However, many challenges remain, particularly in rural areas where traditional gender roles are more deeply ingrained. [IV] Despite improvements, women in Vietnam continue to face discrimination in the workplace, unequal access to leadership positions, and limitations in their economic opportunities. The primary drivers of gender inequality in Vietnam include cultural norms and economic barriers. Women are often expected to take on the majority of household duties, limiting their time and energy to pursue careers. In rural areas, these traditional expectations are even more pronounced, with many women relegated to agricultural labor or domestic work. On the other hand, urban areas offer better opportunities for women in terms of education and employment, though the gender pay gap remains substantial. Efforts to promote gender equality in Vietnam must address both societal attitudes and structural barriers. For instance, the government needs to strengthen laws ensuring equal pay for equal work and improve access to affordable childcare, particularly in rural regions. Moreover, there is a growing need to empower women through leadership training programs and increase their representation in political and economic decision-making. Ultimately, gender equality is not only a matter of fairness but also of national development. Ensuring that women have equal opportunities to contribute to society benefits the economy and fosters a more just and prosperous nation. (Adapted from vietnamese news) Câu 31.

Read the following passage about reducing the Gender Gap in Vietnam and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 23 to 30. In recent years, Vietnam has made significant strides in narrowing the gender gap. The government has implemented various policies to promote gender equality, especially in education and employment. More girls are attending school than ever before, and the gender gap in literacy has been largely closed. Women are also increasingly represented in higher education, with many pursuing careers in fields traditionally dominated by men, such as engineering and science. However, challenges remain. Women in rural areas still face significant barriers to education and employment. Socio-cultural norms and traditional beliefs often prevent them from fully participating in public life. Furthermore, women still earn less than men in many sectors, and the glass ceiling remains a major issue in leadership positions. The government has been working to address these challenges through specific programs aimed at empowering women. In urban areas, initiatives such as women’s entrepreneurship workshops and mentorship programs are helping women break through career barriers. Meanwhile, in rural communities, NGOs are focusing on increasing girls' access to education and creating awareness about gender equality. Despite the progress, there is still much work to be done. It is hoped that continued efforts will lead to a more inclusive society where gender no longer dictates a person’s opportunities and success. D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L

[III] Although legal frameworks have been put in place to ensure gender equality, such as the Law on Gender Equality, gender disparities in various sectors still persist. [IV] One key area of inequality is the labor market. Women, on average, earn less than men and are more likely to be employed in informal sectors, where job security and benefits are limited. Additionally, they D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 6 often face challenges in climbing the career ladder due to gender-based stereotypes and discrimination. Furthermore, cultural expectations place the primary responsibility of childcare and domestic work on women, which can hinder their professional growth. Another challenge is the underrepresentation of women in leadership and decision-making positions. While there have been improvements, women remain vastly outnumbered in top roles within both the public and private sectors. This gender gap in leadership affects the policies and priorities that are set, as decisions may not fully reflect the needs and perspectives of women. In order to reduce gender inequality in Vietnam, greater efforts are needed in education, legal enforcement, and cultural change. Empowering women economically and promoting their participation in leadership positions will help ensure a more equitable society. (Adapted from vietnam news) Câu 31.

Gender discrimination continues to be a significant issue in many workplaces worldwide. In many industries, women still face challenges that prevent them from achieving the same career opportunities as their male counterparts. Studies show that women earn less than men for doing the same job, and they are less likely to be promoted to leadership roles. In fact, in countries like the United States, women earn about 80 cents for every dollar a man makes. Unfortunately, gender discrimination does not only affect salaries and promotions but also impacts how women are treated in the workplace. For example, many women experience “gender bias,” where their skills and ideas are undervalued or overlooked because of their gender. Women in male-dominated D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 5 fields, such as engineering and technology, often struggle to gain the same recognition and opportunities as men, even when they are equally qualified. However, there are efforts to reduce gender discrimination. Many companies are introducing diversity and inclusion programs aimed at creating equal opportunities for all employees, regardless of gender. Some countries have implemented laws that require companies to ensure gender equality in hiring, pay, and promotions. These laws are helping to promote gender equality, although progress has been slow. Technology also plays an important role in combating gender discrimination. Social media platforms provide a space for women to share their experiences and raise awareness about gender inequality. Additionally, apps and websites that offer career advice and mentorship can help women navigate gender biases in their careers and create support networks.

- 11. 6 Read the followingpassage about Gender Inequality and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40. [I] Global discussions on gender equality have gained momentum in recent decades, and one of the primary factors driving this movement is the increased awareness of inequality. [II] Currently, gender disparities continue to exist in various areas of life, such as education, employment, and political representation. Predictions suggest that achieving true gender equality globally may take decades if progress continues at the current pace. [III] Numerous factors contribute to these disparities, leading to various societal challenges. [IV] There are several root causes that perpetuate gender inequality. For instance, women in many societies still face discrimination in the workplace, earning less than men for the same job. Additionally, traditional gender roles often limit women's opportunities in education and leadership. On the other hand, there are also positive movements working to empower women. Many organizations and governments are now advocating for equal opportunities in education and the workplace, offering programs and policies to reduce the gender gap. Despite these efforts, gender inequality continues to cause widespread consequences for both individuals and society. First, gender discrimination in employment results in a lack of financial independence for women, often leading to poverty. Second, unequal access to education for girls in certain regions of the world denies them the opportunity to contribute fully to society. These disparities harm not only women but also hinder the development of entire communities. Gender equality is a complex issue that requires a deep understanding of both the causes and the consequences. By focusing on education, equal opportunities, and strong policies, societies can provide women with the means to live full, independent lives without being hindered by discriminatory practices.

[I] Vietnam has experienced rapid economic development in recent years, becoming one of the fastest- growing economies in Asia. The country's growth is fueled by various factors, including foreign investments, industrialization, and the rise of the service sector. [II] Today, Vietnam’s economy is diversifying, with major sectors such as manufacturing, agriculture, and tourism playing significant roles. By 2030, experts predict that the country will continue to expand its economic influence in the region, especially with strong trade agreements and infrastructure development. [III] Several organizations in Vietnam have been instrumental in this growth, driving both local and international partnerships. [IV] Among the most influential are the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) and the Ministry of Industry and Trade (MOIT), which support businesses through policy-making, regulations, and international trade agreements. These organizations help streamline trade, attract foreign direct investments (FDI), and enhance the country’s global economic standing. Vietnam’s rise has not come without challenges, however. For instance, the rapid industrialization has led to concerns about environmental degradation. Cities such as Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City face pollution issues, and industries sometimes fail to comply with environmental standards. Moreover, urbanization has increased demand for housing and public services, which puts pressure on government resources. These challenges require careful attention and solutions that balance economic growth with sustainability. To ensure long-term prosperity, Vietnam will need to continue strengthening the roles of these key organizations while addressing the social and environmental impacts of its growth.

Vietnam is a country with a rich history and a growing economy. While the country’s largest cities, like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, continue to develop rapidly, the rural areas are still facing significant challenges. According to the World Bank, poverty rates have significantly decreased over the past two decades, but rural areas still lack access to basic services such as healthcare and education. International organizations, like the United Nations and the World Health Organization, play a key role in supporting Vietnam’s development. These organizations provide funding for healthcare programs, educational projects, and infrastructure development. For example, the WHO has been working closely with Vietnam to combat diseases like malaria and tuberculosis. The Vietnamese government is also collaborating with non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to tackle environmental issues, such as deforestation and pollution. In the Mekong Delta, many NGOs are working to protect the region’s unique biodiversity and improve the livelihoods of local farmers.

- 19. Several pull factorsattract people to ASEAN’s growing urban centers. For example, cities like Singapore, Jakarta, and Bangkok offer more job opportunities, especially in the manufacturing, technology, and service sectors. They also provide higher wages and better living standards compared to rural areas. Conversely, many people are pushed out of rural areas due to limited access to education, healthcare, and employment. Natural disasters, like floods and droughts, also disrupt agricultural livelihoods, forcing farmers to seek work in cities. However, rapid urbanisation brings a number of challenges. One major issue is the increased strain on infrastructure. As cities expand, there is often not enough investment in public services, leading to traffic congestion, air pollution, and inadequate healthcare facilities. Additionally, the growing population can lead to a lack of affordable housing, resulting in the development of informal settlements. In conclusion, while ASEAN's urbanisation offers economic growth and improved living standards for many, it also presents significant environmental and social challenges. Addressing these issues requires careful urban planning and policies that balance growth with sustainability. (Adapted from the asean news) Câu 31.

[I] The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) plays a crucial role in regional cooperation and stability. Established in 1967, it aims to promote peace, economic growth, and cultural exchange among its ten member countries. ASEAN's influence extends beyond its borders, as it also engages with global organizations to address issues such as trade, security, and environmental challenges. [II] One of the primary goals of ASEAN is to foster economic cooperation. Through initiatives like the ASEAN Free Trade Area (AFTA), member states have lowered tariffs, allowing for the free flow of goods and services within the region. Moreover, ASEAN works with other international organizations like the United Nations (UN) and the World Trade Organization (WTO) to strengthen its global economic standing. [III] However, ASEAN faces challenges in balancing the interests of its diverse member countries. Differences in political systems, economic development, and social issues often complicate decision- making processes. Additionally, the region's relations with major global powers such as the United States and China can impact ASEAN's ability to maintain neutrality and security in the face of regional tensions. [IV] Despite these challenges, ASEAN remains a vital actor in the global arena. Through its ongoing collaborations with international organizations, it continues to address regional and global issues, such as climate change, public health, and terrorism. By prioritizing dialogue and cooperation, ASEAN seeks to create a stable and prosperous future for its people and the broader international community. (Adapted from BBC news) Câu 31.

Education has evolved greatly over the years. Traditional classrooms, with teachers lecturing in front of students, are now being complemented by modern approaches to learning. Technology has brought new tools, such as online courses, educational apps, and virtual classrooms. These methods allow students to learn at their own pace and access a wide variety of subjects and resources. However, learning is not just about technology. Many schools are now focusing on project-based learning, where students work in groups to solve real-world problems. This approach encourages creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration, skills that are important for success in today's world. Students in these programs often enjoy the hands-on experiences and the opportunity to apply what they have learned. Another innovation is the flipped classroom model. Instead of learning new material during class time, students watch instructional videos at home. This allows them to use classroom time for discussion, questions, and hands-on activities. The flipped classroom makes learning more interactive and engaging, as students can apply the material in a practical way. While these new methods have their benefits, some people worry about the overuse of technology. They argue that face-to-face interactions and traditional teaching methods are still essential for developing strong communication skills and emotional intelligence.

[I] With the rapid advancements in technology, education is undergoing a significant transformation. Traditional learning methods are increasingly being complemented—and in some cases replaced—by innovative approaches enabled by digital tools. [II] One of the major factors driving this shift is the rise of online learning platforms. These platforms allow students to access courses and resources anytime and anywhere, offering flexibility that D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 6 traditional classrooms cannot match. Virtual classrooms, educational apps, and interactive video tutorials are making learning more accessible to people of all ages. [III] However, this new wave of learning comes with both benefits and challenges. On the positive side, students can learn at their own pace, personalize their learning experience, and gain skills that are tailored to their individual needs. But, the shift towards online education can also lead to issues such as digital inequality, where students in less-developed areas lack access to the necessary technology and internet connectivity. Additionally, without proper guidance, some learners may struggle to stay motivated and engaged. [IV] To fully harness the potential of new learning methods, educational systems need to adapt. This includes ensuring that digital tools are available to all students, providing adequate support for remote learners, and encouraging a balance between online and in-person interactions. By thoughtfully integrating technology, the future of education can offer greater opportunities for learning without sacrificing quality. (Adapted from The Guardian) Câu 31.

Education has evolved dramatically in recent years, especially with the rise of digital learning. While traditional classroom settings are still common, students are now turning to online platforms for more flexible learning experiences. These platforms offer interactive lessons, virtual classrooms, and access to a vast range of educational resources. As a result, students are not limited by geography or time, making education more accessible than ever before. One of the most significant changes is the use of gamification in education. Many online courses incorporate games and challenges to keep students motivated and engaged. This approach has proven to be highly effective, as it makes learning more fun and rewarding. For example, language-learning apps reward students with points for completing exercises and reaching milestones, encouraging them to keep going. D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 5 However, despite the benefits, some students still find it difficult to adapt to these new methods of learning. Many miss the face-to-face interaction and structure provided by traditional schools. They may also struggle with time management when learning independently. To address these issues, some schools offer blended learning models, which combine online lessons with in-person sessions, helping students transition smoothly. Fortunately, technology is helping bridge these gaps. Virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) are increasingly being used to create immersive learning environments. With these technologies, students can explore complex subjects like history and science in a hands-on, interactive way. The future of education seems to be a blend of technology and traditional teaching methods, offering the best of both worlds.

Education has seen significant transformations in recent years, with technology playing a key role. One major change is the introduction of blended learning, which combines traditional classroom instruction with online tools. Students can now attend classes remotely, using digital platforms to access lessons and assignments, offering them flexibility and control over their learning pace. Another exciting development is gamification. By turning lessons into interactive games, students are motivated to engage with the material more deeply. Points, badges, and rewards are earned for completing tasks, which makes learning fun and keeps students focused. This method has proven effective in enhancing student participation and knowledge retention. In addition, virtual reality (VR) is becoming a powerful tool in education. Students can now experience subjects like history or science in an immersive way, exploring ancient civilizations or conducting experiments virtually. This hands-on learning helps students to better understand complex concepts. Despite these advancements, traditional methods still hold value.

Gender equality means that everyone, regardless of gender, has equal rights, opportunities, and access to resources. Despite progress in many parts of the world, gender inequality remains a significant issue. In some countries, women still struggle for basic rights like education, healthcare, and equal pay. According to the World Economic Forum, the gender gap in the workplace has narrowed, but it will take over 250 years to close it entirely at the current pace. D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 5 Some countries, however, have made significant strides toward gender equality. In Iceland, for example, women have held leadership positions for years, and the country consistently ranks at the top of global gender equality indexes. Iceland has introduced policies such as paid parental leave and free childcare to support working parents, which helps both men and women balance family and work life. Yet, there are places where cultural norms still enforce traditional gender roles. In many rural areas, girls are expected to help with household chores and are often not given the opportunity to pursue education. These gender-based restrictions limit their future prospects and keep them trapped in a cycle of poverty. Advances in technology are also helping to address gender inequality. Online platforms are providing women with new opportunities to learn, communicate, and even start businesses. Initiatives like digital literacy programs and support networks for women entrepreneurs are helping close the gender gap in tech and business sectors.

By joining organizations like the United Nations, ASEAN, and the World Trade Organization, Vietnam has gained access to wider international markets and strengthened its global influence. [II] One of the main benefits of joining international organizations is economic growth. For instance, membership in the World Trade Organization has provided Vietnam with opportunities to expand exports, attract foreign investment, and improve its manufacturing and agricultural sectors. Additionally, Vietnam’s participation in ASEAN has helped facilitate regional cooperation, leading to economic stability and collective growth among Southeast Asian nations. [III] However, there are challenges associated with this global integration. Vietnam must meet the requirements set by international bodies, such as adhering to global standards in trade, human rights, and environmental protection. These obligations can sometimes limit the country’s autonomy in decision- making, especially when national interests conflict with international expectations. [IV] Despite these challenges, the benefits outweigh the costs. By becoming part of international organizations, Vietnam has improved its diplomatic relations, gained access to international aid, and attracted more tourists and investors. The country’s participation in global governance has positioned it as a key player in regional and global affairs, contributing to its overall development.

Vietnam has a long and rich cultural heritage with many traditional customs, arts, and monuments that reflect its history and identity. Over the years, the Vietnamese government has made significant efforts to preserve and protect this heritage. A key part of these efforts is the protection of ancient monuments, such as the Imperial City in Hue, and traditional arts like water puppetry. Additionally, various educational campaigns are conducted to raise public awareness about the importance of safeguarding cultural identity. D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 5 Despite these efforts, there are challenges in balancing modernization with cultural preservation. For example, the rapid growth of urbanization and the adoption of modern technologies have led to the decline of some traditional practices. As a result, many young people, especially in large cities, may not fully appreciate the value of their cultural heritage. In response to this challenge, the government has developed strategies to safeguard these traditions while adapting to the demands of the modern world. One approach is to integrate cultural education into school curriculums. Many schools now offer courses about Vietnamese history, traditional crafts, and local folklore. Cultural festivals and workshops are also organized to involve the younger generation in preserving their traditions. Moreover, the Vietnamese government is increasingly using digital platforms to promote and protect cultural practices. Virtual museums and online exhibitions are helping people access and appreciate the nation's history and art from anywhere in the world. This approach is particularly effective in reaching the younger generation, who are more familiar with digital media. With these efforts, Vietnam hopes to ensure that its cultural identity remains strong and vibrant in the face of global change. (Adapted from vietnamese news) Câu 23.

[I] In recent years, the issue of preserving Vietnamese culture has gained considerable attention, as rapid modernization and globalization pose challenges to traditional customs. [II] The government has started implementing stronger measures to protect and promote Vietnam’s cultural heritage, making this a central part of national policies. [III] These measures include strengthening laws against the destruction of historical sites, supporting traditional art forms, and promoting cultural education. [IV] These efforts are crucial because maintaining cultural diversity not only preserves national identity but also fosters unity and a sense of belonging among citizens. Several laws have been enacted to protect Vietnam’s cultural landmarks from commercial exploitation and natural disasters. Additionally, there has been increased funding for the preservation of ancient temples, pagodas, and other historical monuments. Traditional arts such as water puppetry, folk music, and dance are receiving more support through government-sponsored programs. Education programs are also being introduced to raise awareness among the younger generation about the importance of cultural preservation. While these government actions are necessary, the success of cultural preservation also depends on the involvement of local communities. Citizens must actively participate in safeguarding their cultural practices, supporting their local artisans, and respecting their heritage sites. In conclusion, the preservation of Vietnamese culture is a vital issue that requires cooperation from all sectors. By combining government policies, community involvement, and public awareness, Vietnam can successfully protect its rich cultural heritage for future generations.

Read the following passage about Regulating Digital Culture and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 23 to 30. In recent years, governments around the world have been increasingly focusing on regulating digital culture. With the rapid growth of the internet and social media, digital platforms have become essential parts of daily life. However, these platforms also raise concerns about privacy, misinformation, and the spread of harmful content. In response, many countries have begun to implement stricter laws to monitor online activities and protect their citizens. For example, the European Union has introduced the Digital Services Act, which requires large online platforms to take more responsibility for content moderation. At the same time, governments are also working to promote positive digital culture. They are supporting online education programs and encouraging the creation of digital content that reflects cultural diversity. By doing so, they aim to ensure that the internet remains a space for learning, creativity, and positive interaction. However, this increased regulation has sparked debate about freedom of expression. Critics argue that strict regulations could limit creativity and suppress online voices. In some countries, there have been protests against government control over digital platforms, as many believe that censorship could harm the free flow of information. D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 5 Despite these challenges, it seems that regulating digital culture will be a key priority for governments in the coming years.

[I] Globalisation has accelerated in recent decades, bringing with it both opportunities and challenges. One of the key concerns that arises in this global movement is the effect on cultural identity. [II] As more people across the world come into contact with different cultures, traditional practices and languages are at risk of being overshadowed by dominant global cultures. It is estimated that by 2050, D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L
- 45. 6 nearly one infive languages will be at risk of disappearing. [III] Cultural preservation, therefore, becomes crucial in maintaining the diversity that makes our world rich and unique. [IV] Many factors contribute to the erosion of traditional culture. For example, the widespread use of social media and digital platforms has led to a homogenisation of cultural practices, with people around the world increasingly adopting similar styles of dress, entertainment, and communication. Additionally, economic pressures often encourage the younger generation to abandon traditional occupations in favour of more lucrative, modern jobs in urban centres. In contrast, there are efforts to preserve cultural heritage, such as the promotion of indigenous languages and traditional arts, which aim to protect these valuable aspects of human history and identity. The process of cultural preservation involves several complex challenges. First, there is the issue of balancing modernisation with tradition. As cities grow and global economies evolve, maintaining traditional practices often requires significant effort from both local governments and communities. Moreover, the increasing dominance of global entertainment media has made it difficult for local cultural forms to survive, as younger generations are drawn to global trends. Second, cultural preservation may face obstacles when it competes with economic development. For instance, tourism might promote cultural heritage, but it can also lead to the commercialisation of traditions, reducing their authenticity. Cultural preservation is a complex and vital issue, and understanding the causes and effects of cultural change is essential. With effective policies and community engagement, societies can protect and celebrate their unique cultural identities while embracing the benefits of globalisation. (Adapted from culture.

In Vietnam, the rich diversity of cultural traditions, languages, and practices is a source of national pride. However, with the rapid pace of urbanization and the influence of modern technology, many of these cultural practices are at risk of being lost. In fact, some local languages and traditional arts are disappearing as younger generations gravitate toward globalized trends and the widespread use of major languages like English. According to experts, more than 10% of Vietnam’s ethnic languages could be at risk of extinction in the coming decades if no action is taken. The preservation of Vietnam’s cultural heritage is important because it reflects the nation’s history and identity. From traditional Vietnamese music, like cải lương and hát bội, to ancient craftsmanship such as silk weaving and pottery making, these arts offer insights into the wisdom and lifestyle of previous generations. For example, the art of "đờn ca tài tử" in southern Vietnam shows a deep connection to the local way of life and the rich melodies that have been passed down for centuries. Fortunately, there are efforts to protect and promote Vietnamese cultural heritage. Many young people are participating in community projects to revitalize traditional music and craftmaking. Moreover, some schools are incorporating cultural education into their curriculums, teaching students about the value of preserving their cultural practices. The rise of social media platforms has also helped young people to learn more about Vietnam's cultural traditions, as they can access information and share their knowledge with others. Technology has become a powerful tool in cultural preservation as well.

[I] In recent years, the Vietnamese government has placed a strong emphasis on encouraging the younger generation to actively participate in preserving and promoting Vietnamese culture. [II] As the country continues to integrate more into the global community, the need to maintain and share its rich cultural heritage has become increasingly vital. [III] Young people, in particular, are seen as key players in this endeavor, given their familiarity with modern tools and global networks. [IV] D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 6 There are various initiatives aimed at raising awareness among youth about the importance of cultural preservation. For example, the government has supported programs that teach traditional arts, literature, and local customs in schools and universities. Furthermore, they are encouraged to engage in community projects that showcase Vietnamese culture through festivals, exhibitions, and performances. However, there are also challenges associated with this movement. The rapid pace of modernization and the influence of foreign cultures have led to a decline in interest among some youth in traditional practices. Many young people are more attracted to modern entertainment and lifestyles, which sometimes conflict with the values and practices of their cultural heritage. To address these issues, the Vietnamese government has developed policies that offer incentives for youth to participate in cultural activities. These efforts not only aim to preserve Vietnam’s traditions but also to help the younger generation feel a sense of pride and belonging to their cultural roots. By balancing modernization with cultural conservation, Vietnam hopes to create a dynamic, globally engaged youth population that is deeply connected to its history and heritage.

After completing their university degrees, many graduates find themselves at a crossroads. Some may be excited about starting their careers, while others may feel uncertain about their future paths. The job market today is highly competitive, and securing a job that aligns with their degree is not always guaranteed. Many graduates may find themselves in entry-level positions, while others pursue further education, such as master's degrees or professional certifications, to improve their chances of success. In some cases, graduates are choosing to take a different approach. Instead of immediately seeking traditional office jobs, they are opting for internships, freelancing, or even starting their own businesses. This flexibility offers them a chance to gain real-world experience and to build their portfolios before committing to a long-term career. Additionally, the rise of remote work has given graduates the freedom to work from anywhere, allowing them to gain valuable experience while exploring different parts of the world. However, some graduates face challenges in transitioning from university life to the professional world. Many struggle with time management, adjusting to a work-life balance, or coping with the demands of their first job.

After finishing secondary school, students around the world face important decisions about their educational future. Many students choose to attend university, but there are also other options like vocational training or directly entering the workforce. According to a report by the Global Education Monitoring Team, around 60% of students choose to pursue higher education, while the rest opt for vocational training or early employment. However, the decision is not always easy. Each option has its own set of advantages. University degrees often lead to well-paying jobs in fields like medicine, engineering, and business. On the other hand, vocational courses provide practical skills and quicker entry into the workforce, especially in sectors such as construction, healthcare, and IT. Unfortunately, some students may face financial constraints, making it difficult for them to afford higher education. In recent years, some countries have implemented initiatives to offer more accessible education options. For instance, in Germany, vocational training programs are highly regarded and provide students with hands-on experience, ensuring they are well-prepared for the job market. Many students also turn to online courses, which offer flexible learning schedules and the opportunity to gain new skills at their own pace. Technology continues to play a role in modern education, making learning more accessible and affordable for students around the world. For instance, online platforms like Coursera and edX provide students with the chance to take university-level courses for free or at a lower cost, allowing them to pursue their educational goals regardless of their location or financial situation.

[I] In recent years, the way students approach education has undergone significant changes, with many now seeking alternatives to traditional methods. [II] By 2030, experts predict that a large number of students will be turning to online learning platforms and new forms of education, which could reshape the educational landscape. [III] Various factors contribute to this shift, leading to both opportunities and challenges in the world of education. [IV] Traditional classroom education, with its rigid schedules and locations, often doesn’t accommodate the diverse learning styles and needs of students. For example, some students struggle with a one-size-fits- all curriculum, and others find it difficult to keep up with fast-paced classroom instruction. On the other hand, alternative educational models, like online courses and personalized learning, offer more flexibility and tailored learning experiences. These alternatives provide access to a wider range of subjects and skills, allowing students to progress at their own pace. However, the rise of new educational approaches comes with its own set of challenges. First, some online learning platforms lack the necessary interaction and mentorship that traditional classroom settings provide. This can result in students feeling isolated or unsupported, leading to lower motivation D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 6 and engagement. Additionally, students from disadvantaged backgrounds may not have access to the technology or internet required for online education, exacerbating inequalities in educational opportunities. The future of education will likely rely on finding a balance between traditional and alternative learning methods. By carefully integrating new technologies and offering equitable access to education, we can ensure that all students benefit from the opportunities these new models offer, while still maintaining the supportive elements of traditional education.

These options cater to different needs and aspirations. However, the decision of which path to choose is not always easy. In recent years, vocational education has gained popularity as it offers more practical skills and a quicker route to employment. Many students now choose to attend vocational schools, where they can learn trades such as carpentry, plumbing, or technology. This option is especially appealing for students who want to enter the workforce sooner rather than pursuing a university degree. Some students also choose to continue their education at university. Universities offer a broad range of programs in fields such as business, engineering, medicine, and the arts. A university education is often seen as a stepping stone to more advanced careers and offers the chance for intellectual growth and social development. D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L

[I] As students finish their secondary education, they face a wide array of choices regarding their future educational paths. [II] The decision between pursuing higher education, vocational training, or entering the workforce can be daunting for many. [III] There are several factors influencing this decision, such as personal interests, financial constraints, and long-term career goals. [IV] Higher education, such as university or college, offers students the opportunity to gain specialized knowledge in various fields, but it often comes with high tuition fees and years of study. On the other hand, vocational training provides practical skills and shorter programs, allowing students to enter the workforce more quickly. Additionally, some students choose to directly enter employment, gaining on- the-job experience while earning a salary. D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 6 The choice between these options has far-reaching consequences for students' career trajectories and personal lives. Higher education can open doors to professions that require advanced degrees, such as law, medicine, and engineering. However, for many, the cost of university education can be prohibitive. In contrast, vocational training programs are often more affordable and can lead to immediate employment in sectors such as healthcare, construction, and technology. On the downside, some jobs may not offer the same financial or career growth potential as those requiring a university degree. Ultimately, students must carefully consider their personal circumstances and aspirations. Whether pursuing further education or entering the workforce directly, each option comes with its own set of advantages and challenges. Therefore, thorough research and planning are essential for making an informed decision about the future. (Adapted from education news) Câu 31.

Being independent is an important skill for young students. It helps them manage their time, solve problems, and take responsibility for their own learning. One way to develop independence is to practice good time management. By creating a study schedule and setting clear goals, students can stay on track and avoid procrastination. For example, breaking down big tasks into smaller ones can make them feel less overwhelming. Another key to independence is learning to make decisions. Students should start by making small choices, such as deciding what to eat or how to organize their study materials. Gradually, they can take on bigger decisions, like choosing extracurricular activities or planning their study routine. These decisions build confidence and self-reliance. Additionally, students can become more independent by seeking help when needed. Asking teachers, classmates, or family members for advice shows that independence does not mean doing everything alone. It’s important to know when to ask for help and how to use the resources available to you. Finally, developing a growth mindset is essential for independence. A growth mindset means believing that effort leads to improvement. By embracing challenges and learning from mistakes, students can become more resilient and capable of solving problems on their own.

In today's world, students have more educational options than ever before. They can choose to attend traditional schools, pursue online learning, or even study abroad. This variety of choices allows them to find the best fit for their learning style and goals. Online education, for instance, has become increasingly popular due to its flexibility. Students can learn at their own pace and from anywhere, making it a great option for those who need to balance work and study. However, this wide range of options also comes with its challenges. For example, students who choose online education may miss out on face-to-face interactions with peers and teachers, which can affect their social development. On the other hand, studying abroad offers a chance to experience new cultures and languages, but it can also be expensive and require significant planning. In some countries, governments are working to improve access to education for all students. Scholarships and financial aid programs are available to help those who may not otherwise be able to D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 5 afford higher education. Additionally, there are initiatives to improve online learning resources and make them more accessible to people in rural or remote areas. Ultimately, the key to making the most of these educational opportunities is to carefully consider individual needs and goals. With the right support and planning, students can take advantage of the many options available to them, opening doors to a brighter future. . (Adapted from education news) Câu 23.

- 65. 6 [I] The expansionof educational opportunities has significantly increased over recent years, with more students now having access to a variety of academic options. [II] In many parts of the world, students have the chance to pursue higher education both locally and abroad, and by 2030, it is expected that the number of students enrolling in tertiary education will have doubled. [III] Several factors contribute to this global trend, leading to new opportunities but also presenting challenges. [IV] One key factor driving students to explore different educational paths is the increasing availability of scholarships and financial aid, making education more accessible. Additionally, many students are motivated by the desire to gain skills for better job prospects, and universities now offer specialized programs that cater to emerging industries. Furthermore, globalisation has made it easier for them to study abroad, allowing them to experience different cultures and perspectives, thus enhancing their education. However, the rise in educational opportunities brings about various challenges. First, the pressure to succeed in a highly competitive environment can lead to stress and mental health issues among students. Furthermore, with the increasing number of students pursuing higher education, universities are struggling to provide adequate facilities and resources. As a result, some students find it difficult to receive individual attention or access essential learning tools. The increased availability of education offers many benefits, but it also has significant implications that need to be carefully considered. By improving mental health support and ensuring that educational institutions keep up with the growing demand, we can provide students with the resources and opportunities they need to thrive. .

Today, there are many educational options for young students, ranging from traditional schools to alternative learning environments. Traditional schooling, such as public and private schools, is the most common choice. These schools provide a structured curriculum, with students learning subjects like math, science, literature, and social studies. Public schools are often free and government-funded, while private schools may charge tuition and offer specialized programs. D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 5 In recent years, many parents have turned to homeschooling as an alternative. Homeschooling allows parents to tailor the curriculum to the specific needs of their child. This method also allows for flexible schedules and more personalized attention. However, homeschooling requires a significant time commitment from parents and may limit social interactions with peers. Another growing option is online education. With advances in technology, students can now attend virtual schools or take online courses from anywhere in the world. Online education offers flexibility and the ability to learn at one's own pace. However, it may lack their social experiences and face-to- face interaction that come with traditional schooling. Lastly, some parents choose alternative schools that emphasize creative and non-traditional teaching methods. These schools focus on developing students' critical thinking, creativity, and social skills, and may use project-based learning or experiential activities to engage students. However, these schools are not as widely available as traditional schools. (Adapted from education news) Câu 23. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as an education option for young students? A.

Paragraph 4 Read the following passage about exploring Educational Options for Young Students and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40. [I] Over the past few decades, education systems have undergone significant changes, driven by the increasing demand for modern learning methods. [II] Today, more than half of young students worldwide are attending schools that emphasize digital literacy and problem-solving skills. By 2030, experts predict that the majority of young learners will be educated in environments that blend traditional teaching with advanced technology. [III] Several factors have contributed to this shift, with technological advancements being a key influence. [IV] While there are multiple advantages, the transition also brings about challenges for both students and educators. In many countries, the demand for improved education options pushes governments to invest in more diverse learning opportunities. For instance, schools are offering specialized programs like STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) to foster critical thinking from an early age. On the other hand, there are pull factors drawing students toward private institutions, such as a wider variety of extracurricular activities and personalized attention due to smaller class sizes. The increased availability of online education also offers flexibility, enabling students to access resources and learn at their own pace. The integration of digital tools in education, however, has far-reaching effects. First, it raises concerns about the digital divide, where students in low-income areas may lack access to essential technology, widening the gap between wealthy and disadvantaged students. Moreover, the shift to online platforms has led to a decrease in face-to-face interaction, which can affect social development and communication skills. Lastly, while technological advancements provide new opportunities, they also create challenges in terms of balancing screen time and traditional learning methods. Educational reform is a complex issue that requires a holistic understanding of both the benefits and challenges. By implementing thoughtful policies that address these concerns, it is possible to provide students with diverse, high-quality educational experiences without exacerbating inequalities or compromising social development.

In today's world, cultural heritage is at risk due to rapid modernization and globalization. Many ancient artifacts and traditions are in danger of being lost forever. UNESCO estimates that one-third of the world's cultural heritage is in jeopardy. As countries modernize, there is a tendency to overlook the importance of preserving traditional objects, languages, and practices. For example, many indigenous languages are disappearing as younger generations switch to more widely spoken languages like English or Mandarin. When a culture fades, so does its unique way of life. Cultural objects carry knowledge and customs that help people understand the past. A good example is the art of weaving practiced by the Native American Navajo people. Their weaving patterns tell stories passed down through generations. If these traditions are not preserved, future generations may never fully understand their cultural significance. D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 5 Fortunately, many organizations are working to protect endangered cultural heritage. For instance, museums around the world have begun digital archiving projects to preserve artifacts and art forms. These digital collections are accessible online, allowing people globally to learn about different cultures. Additionally, governments are passing stricter laws to prevent the illegal trade of cultural objects. The preservation of cultural heritage is crucial for maintaining diversity and understanding among different societies. Technology, education, and international cooperation are all essential tools in ensuring that these treasures are not lost.

[I] The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in language learning has grown substantially in recent years, and it has become an essential tool in the development of English skills. [II] Experts predict that by 2030, the integration of AI in educational systems will be widespread, transforming the way English is taught and learned worldwide. [III] The use of AI offers both advantages and challenges in this context, shaping the learning experience in various ways. [IV] D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 6 AI can assist language learners in several ways, enhancing both the learning process and the efficiency of acquiring English. For instance, AI-powered apps and software can help learners practice pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar through interactive exercises. Moreover, AI systems can offer personalized learning experiences, adapting to each learner’s specific needs and pace, making language learning more effective. On the other hand, AI also presents challenges. Over-reliance on AI tools can lead to the reduction of human interaction, which is crucial for language acquisition. Without real conversations, learners may not fully develop their speaking and listening skills. In terms of learning outcomes, the impact of AI on students varies. While AI can help students learn new words and structures quickly, it may also encourage passivity, as some learners may prefer passive modes of learning, such as watching videos or listening to AI-generated audio, rather than actively engaging in conversations. This could potentially affect the development of practical communication skills. Another issue is the lack of emotional intelligence in AI-based systems. AI can provide accurate language correction but cannot offer the same level of emotional support or understanding that a human teacher can. As AI continues to evolve, it is important to find a balance between using AI tools and maintaining essential face-to-face interaction. By integrating AI with traditional teaching methods, language learners can enjoy the benefits of both, achieving greater fluency and cultural understanding while still honing their practical skills. .

- 83. 5 In fact, technologyhas already led to substantial shifts in the job market. Automation, for example, has already replaced many manual jobs in sectors such as manufacturing and agriculture. While this has led to efficiency gains, it has also resulted in job losses. The fear is that many low-skilled workers will be left behind as businesses transition to more automated operations. On the other hand, technology also creates new jobs, especially in fields like software development, data science, and digital marketing. Governments and international organizations are working together to help businesses and workers adapt to these changes. Some countries have established digital infrastructure to support businesses in rural areas, enabling them to connect with global markets. Furthermore, education and training programs are being developed to help workers acquire skills that align with the demands of the modern economy. One promising example is the use of mobile technology in Africa, which has transformed various sectors. Mobile banking, for instance, has enabled millions of people in sub-Saharan Africa to access financial services for the first time. This has helped small businesses grow by giving them easier access to loans and facilitating transactions. Similarly, blockchain technology is revolutionizing supply chain management by making it more transparent and efficient. In conclusion, while technology has brought both challenges and opportunities, it is clear that its role in economic development will only continue to grow.

- 87. 5 Social media, inparticular, has become one of the dominant forms of communication, enabling people to connect globally in real-time. Platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram allow users to share opinions, experiences, and media with vast audiences. The spread of digital media has also had a profound impact on journalism, with citizen journalism becoming increasingly prevalent. People no longer rely solely on professional reporters to provide news; instead, they can report and share stories themselves. However, the rise of digital media has also raised concerns about misinformation. The speed at which information spreads on social media can result in false or misleading stories being shared rapidly, sometimes causing harm before corrections can be made. Additionally, the dominance of certain large corporations in the media industry has led to concerns about the concentration of media ownership and its impact on diversity and fairness in reporting. Despite these challenges, mass media continues to evolve. The introduction of new technologies, such as artificial intelligence and virtual reality, promises to further change how we interact with media in the coming years. As the media landscape continues to evolve, it remains to be seen how it will shape public opinion, political discourse, and our understanding of the world. (Adapted from CNN news) Câu 23.

Paragraph 4 Read the following passage about The Development of Mass Media and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40. [I] The growth of mass media in recent decades has been one of the most transformative phenomena in global communication. From traditional print media to digital platforms, the evolution of mass media has reshaped how people receive and share information. [II] Today, mass media encompasses various forms, including newspapers, radio, television, and, increasingly, online platforms such as social media and streaming services. By 2030, experts predict that digital media will dominate, overtaking traditional media in terms of global consumption. [III] Several factors have driven this rapid growth, but the consequences, both positive and negative, are still unfolding. [IV] One key factor behind the growth of mass media is technological advancement. Innovations such as the internet and smartphones have allowed people to access information instantly, anywhere, and anytime. This has made digital media more accessible and appealing, especially to younger audiences. Additionally, the increasing use of social media platforms has provided a space for individuals to participate in content creation, leading to a democratization of information. On the other hand, traditional media, such as print newspapers and broadcast television, have struggled to maintain their audience base. However, the rise of mass media has also brought challenges. One significant issue is the spread of misinformation. With the ease of sharing content online, false or misleading information can quickly go viral, leading to widespread confusion. Another concern is the growing concentration of media ownership, where a few large corporations control a substantial portion of the media landscape. This can limit the diversity of viewpoints and result in biased reporting. In conclusion, while mass media has revolutionized the way we communicate and access information, it has also created challenges that require careful management to ensure its positive impact on society.

Communication has undergone significant changes over the years, especially with the advent of new technologies. In ancient times, humans communicated primarily through oral traditions and written symbols, like cave paintings or early scripts. However, these methods were often limited to local areas. The invention of the printing press by Johannes Gutenberg in the 15th century marked the beginning of mass communication, allowing books and newspapers to be widely distributed and giving people access to new ideas. In the 20th century, the development of radio and television brought communication to a global audience. For the first time, people could receive information from all over the world without leaving their homes. Radio, initially used for news broadcasts and entertainment, became an important tool for education, while television added a visual element, making it more engaging. These technologies revolutionized how people shared and consumed information. In the 21st century, the rise of the internet has completely transformed communication once again. The internet has made it easier for people to connect with one another regardless of their location. Social media platforms, email, and instant messaging have revolutionized both personal and professional communication. The internet has also opened up new possibilities for education, allowing people to learn from online resources and virtual classrooms. However, the rapid growth of digital communication has brought with it several challenges. One of the major concerns is the spread of misinformation and fake news. With the ability to instantly share information with millions of people, it has become easier for inaccurate or misleading content to spread quickly.

In recent years, the rise of multinational media companies has had a significant impact on global communication. [I] With advances in technology and the growth of the internet, media organizations have expanded beyond national borders, reaching audiences worldwide. [II] By 2050, experts predict that a majority of media content will be produced by a few large global corporations, allowing them to shape cultural trends, public opinion, and political discourse. [III] There are several factors that have contributed to the rise of multinational media corporations, which also pose various challenges. [IV] D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 6 The main push factors behind the growth of multinational media include the increasing demand for diverse content, the growth of international markets, and advancements in technology. As populations become more interconnected, people demand media that reflects their varied cultures and interests, which can be met by global media companies. Moreover, these corporations can tap into emerging markets in developing countries, creating new revenue streams. The internet and digital platforms have further facilitated the expansion of multinational media by breaking down geographical barriers and allowing content to reach a global audience instantly. However, this globalisation of media comes with both positive and negative consequences. On the one hand, multinational media companies provide access to information and entertainment from around the world, helping to promote cultural exchange. On the other hand, the concentration of media ownership raises concerns about media diversity and the potential for these companies to dominate public discourse. Additionally, the expansion of multinational media often leads to the overshadowing of local media outlets, which may struggle to compete with the financial resources and global reach of their multinational counterparts. To ensure that multinational media development is beneficial, it is essential to carefully regulate the industry and promote a balanced flow of information that respects both global and local interests.

There are currently over 8 million species of animals and plants in the world, but many of them are in danger of extinction due to human activities. Habitat destruction, poaching, and climate change are some of the main factors causing this crisis. Efforts to protect wildlife have increased in recent years, and many conservation organizations are working to ensure that these species are preserved for future generations. Some of the largest initiatives focus on creating wildlife reserves, strengthening anti-poaching laws, and raising public awareness. One effective method of protecting wild animals is the establishment of protected areas, such as national parks and wildlife sanctuaries. These areas provide safe environments for animals to live and breed without the threat of human interference. For example, the Yellowstone National Park in the United States has successfully protected species like the gray wolf and bison. These protected areas also allow scientists to study wildlife in their natural habitats, which is crucial for understanding their behaviors and survival needs. D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 5 Another important approach is enforcing strict anti-poaching laws. Poaching for illegal trade in animal parts is one of the biggest threats to many endangered species, especially elephants, rhinos, and tigers. Countries like Kenya and India have adopted stricter wildlife protection laws, and they are actively working with international organizations to combat poaching. Increasing penalties for wildlife crimes and improving surveillance in high-risk areas are also essential in reducing poaching activities. Technology plays a crucial role in modern wildlife conservation efforts. Drones and satellite tracking are being used to monitor animal movements and detect illegal activities such as poaching. Moreover, social media platforms and websites are used to raise awareness and encourage people to support wildlife protection campaigns. Programs like the “Wildlife Crime” app allow individuals to report suspicious activities, which helps authorities take swift action to protect endangered species.

- 99. 6 Read the followingpassage about wildlife conservation and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40. [I] Wildlife conservation has become a critical global issue as many species face extinction due to human activities such as habitat destruction, poaching, and climate change. Protecting wildlife is crucial not only for preserving biodiversity but also for maintaining ecological balance. Experts warn that without urgent action, many species could vanish in the coming decades, which would have devastating consequences on ecosystems. [II] One effective approach to wildlife conservation is habitat preservation. By creating protected areas, such as national parks and wildlife reserves, governments and conservation organisations ensure that animals have safe environments to live and breed. Additionally, reducing human encroachment on these areas through better land-use policies and stricter regulations helps protect these vital habitats in the long term. [III] Another critical strategy involves combating poaching and illegal wildlife trade. Enhanced law enforcement, international collaboration, and the use of advanced technology such as drones and satellite surveillance are instrumental in detecting and preventing poaching activities. Public education campaigns are also essential, as they raise awareness about the impact of poaching and encourage ethical behavior towards wildlife. [IV] Supporting sustainable practices, such as eco-tourism and responsible resource management, can also contribute to wildlife conservation. By promoting eco-friendly industries and sustainable farming techniques, human activities can coexist more harmoniously with nature. Additionally, captive breeding programs in zoos and wildlife sanctuaries help rebuild populations of endangered species, providing a safety net for animals on the brink of extinction.

There are currently thousands of species of animals at risk of extinction worldwide. Many of these species are under threat due to human activities, such as deforestation, illegal hunting, and climate change. However, governments around the world have been taking action to protect endangered species and their habitats. One of the major steps involves strengthening wildlife protection laws, creating protected areas, and investing in wildlife conservation projects. For instance, in Africa, the governments of countries like Kenya and South Africa have established vast national parks and wildlife reserves to safeguard species such as elephants, lions, and rhinos. These protected areas allow animals to roam freely without the threat of poaching or habitat destruction. Additionally, strict anti-poaching laws have been enacted, with severe penalties for those caught hunting endangered animals illegally. Furthermore, technology plays a key role in protecting wildlife. Many countries now use drones and satellite technology to monitor wildlife populations and track animals' movements. Anti-poaching units rely on high-tech equipment like night-vision cameras and thermal imaging to catch illegal hunters. Social D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L

[I] In recent years, governments around the world have been increasingly focusing on wildlife conservation. As populations grow and human activities continue to encroach upon natural habitats, the D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 6 need for stronger wildlife protection measures has become more urgent. [II] Today, many species face the risk of extinction, with some already classified as endangered. By 2030, experts predict that the number of critically endangered species could double if current trends continue. [III] Governments are implementing various strategies to counter this alarming trend, but the effectiveness of these measures depends on global cooperation and sustainable practices. [IV] One major effort involves strengthening wildlife laws and regulations. For example, many countries have enacted stricter penalties for poaching and illegal trade in animal products. These laws are accompanied by better enforcement and monitoring systems to ensure that violators are caught and punished. Moreover, governments are allocating more resources to create and maintain protected areas, such as national parks and wildlife reserves, where animals can thrive without human interference. However, wildlife protection is not only about laws and enforcement; it also requires addressing the root causes of habitat destruction. The expansion of urban areas, agricultural land, and infrastructure projects often leads to deforestation and the loss of ecosystems. Governments are now focusing on promoting sustainable land-use practices, such as reforestation and the preservation of key wildlife corridors that connect fragmented habitats. These strategies aim to minimize human impact on wildlife while ensuring that development can proceed in an environmentally responsible way. Despite these efforts, wildlife protection remains a challenging issue. Deforestation, illegal hunting, and climate change continue to threaten animal populations worldwide. The future of many species depends not only on effective policy but also on public awareness and international collaboration. If governments, environmental organizations, and individuals work together, it is possible to protect endangered species and ensure that wildlife continues to play an integral role in the planet's ecosystems.

By 2030, experts predict that the number of protected wildlife areas could double if current trends in conservation continue. [III] Governments and organizations are adopting various strategies to improve the effectiveness of these areas, but their success depends on global cooperation and a commitment to sustainable practices. [IV] One major initiative involves strengthening anti-poaching laws and regulations. For example, many countries have introduced stricter penalties for poaching and illegal trade in animal products. These laws are backed by increased patrols and surveillance, ensuring that violators are caught and prosecuted. Additionally, governments are investing in the creation of wildlife corridors to allow animals to migrate freely between protected areas, reducing the risk of inbreeding and ensuring healthy populations. However, protecting wildlife is not only about enforcement; it also involves addressing the underlying causes of habitat loss. The expansion of agriculture, logging, and infrastructure projects continues to threaten ecosystems within and around protected areas. Governments are now focusing on promoting sustainable land-use practices, such as reforestation and the preservation of key habitats that are critical for wildlife survival. These strategies aim to minimize human impact on wildlife while promoting development in a responsible way. Despite these efforts, wildlife conservation remains a complex and ongoing challenge. Habitat destruction, illegal hunting, and climate change continue to threaten species worldwide. The future of many animals depends not only on effective policy but also on public awareness and international collaboration.

Multimedia communication involves the use of a combination of different content forms, such as text, audio, video, and interactive elements, to convey messages to audiences in engaging and effective ways. Today, people access multimedia content on various devices, including smartphones, tablets, and computers, making it easier than ever to stay connected. One of the most significant drivers of this change is the rise of the internet and digital platforms. Social media, streaming services, and websites are at the forefront of delivering multimedia content, allowing D Ạ Y K È M Q U Y N H Ơ N O F F I C I A L 5 individuals to consume and create information in a variety of formats. Video-sharing platforms like YouTube and social media sites such as Instagram and TikTok have made it possible for everyone to share content with a global audience. As a result, businesses, educators, and governments are increasingly using multimedia to connect with their audiences, whether through marketing campaigns, online courses, or public service announcements. Moreover, multimedia communication is not just about entertainment or education; it also plays an essential role in social and political movements. Through videos, podcasts, and blogs, individuals can raise awareness, mobilize others, and drive change in society. In fact, the power of multimedia communication has helped shape public opinions on critical issues like climate change, human rights, and social justice. As the demand for multimedia content continues to rise, the field of communication is also evolving. New technologies such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) are pushing the boundaries of how media can be experienced.

[I] Over the past decades, the number of endangered species worldwide has been steadily increasing. This phenomenon is primarily driven by human activities, such as habitat destruction, poaching, and climate change. Conservation efforts have been made to address these issues, but much more needs to be done to protect vulnerable wildlife. [II] One of the main threats to endangered species is habitat loss. Deforestation, urbanisation, and agricultural expansion have destroyed vast areas of natural habitats, forcing many animals to relocate or face extinction. Additionally, illegal hunting and the trade of endangered species for their fur, bones, and other body parts remain significant threats, despite global regulations. [III] In response to these challenges, a variety of conservation strategies have been implemented. Protected areas such as national parks and wildlife reserves are established to conserve habitats and offer sanctuary to endangered species. Furthermore, stricter anti-poaching laws have been enforced in many regions to curb illegal hunting. International collaboration has also played a crucial role in the fight against wildlife trafficking. [IV] While progress has been made, there is still much work to be done. Enhanced public awareness and education on the importance of biodiversity are essential to garner more support for wildlife conservation. Additionally, innovative technologies such as drones and satellite monitoring are helping to track animal populations and combat illegal activities. Governments, NGOs, and local communities must continue to work together to protect the most vulnerable species from extinction. (Adapted from CNN news) Câu 31.
