Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D
Cyberbullying is the use of technology to harass, threaten, embarrass, or target another person Cyberbullying
can be easy to spot-for example, if a child shows you a text, or response to a status update on Facebook that is mean, harsh, or cruel Other acts are less obvious, like pretending to be a victim online or posting personal information, photos, or videos designed to hurt or embarrass another person Some also report that a fake account or webpage has been created with the only intention to harass and bully
Because many kids are reluctant to report being bullied, even to their parents, it's impossible to know just how many are affected But recent studies about cyberbullying rates have found that about 1 in 4 teens have been the victims of cyberbullying, and about 1 in 6 admit to having cyberbullied someone In some studies, more than half of the teens surveyed said that they've experienced abuse through social and digital media
No longer limited to schoolyards or street corners, modern-day bullying can happen at home as well as at school - essentially 24 hours a day As long as kids have access to a phone, computer, or other devices (including tablets), they are at risk Severe, long-term, or frequent cyberbullying can leave both victims and bullies at
greater risk for anxiety, depression, and other stress-related disorders In some rare but highly publicized cases,
some kids have turned to suicide
Cyberbullying can be in various forms They may include being emotionally upset during or after using the Internet or the phone; withdrawal from family members, friends, and activities; avoiding school or group gatherings; changes in mood, behavior, sleep, or appetite; wanting to stop using the computer or cellphone or avoiding discussions about computer or cellphone activities

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D
Trang 4They say, "A jack of all trades is a master of none." However, this age-old belief is no longer applicable in this new era as juggling many jobs or multiple careers become a rising trend
A career is commonly perceived as a job we commit to for a long time or even for life In this sense, careers mean taking on more than one job at a time or sequentially pursuing different occupations that suit our abilities during different phases in life Proponents of slash careers argue that humans are born with more than one ability, and thus pursuing a single profession or focusing on a single career means diminishing other available yet less frequently used abilities "Should humans operate like single-task machines for a lifetime?" they wonder
multi-The growing ubiquity of the internet has reshaped human life, which sets the stage for multiple careers
It also paves the way for different types of work which can be coordinated through the internet, such as remote work and gig work Some typical internet-generated jobs include tech-based drivers, freelancers, and digital content creators
The idea of pursuing what we love and earning multiple streams of income out of it has yet to become popular among the majority of the population Freedom often comes at the price of a more unstable working life There is a more abundant labor supply as many people land multiple jobs simultaneously for long
periods It results in either a cheaper labor cost or a lower level of employee commitment from an employer's
perspective
In short, multiple careers are promising but will come with pains and struggles We should avoid turning this wonderful trend into another form of self-exploitation just so we can jump on the bandwagon Career - or careers - whatever you choose it to be, should be based on what you believe in and on what makes you fulfilled
Câu 46 Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A The Advantages and Disadvantages of Multiple Careers
B Should people land multiple jobs simultaneously?

Câu 47 According to passage 2, people advocate the idea of multiple careers because
A they think that an age-old belief "A jack of all trades is a master of none." is no longer suitable for
D they argue that humans are born with many abilities, and therefore, it is a waste to just operate
like single-task machines for a lifetime
Câu 48 The phrase sets the stage in paragraph 3 probably means A to start doing something B to terminate something
C to make it possible for something to happen D to prevent something from happening Câu 49 The word It in paragraph 4 refers to _
A an employer's perspective B a cheaper labor cost
C a more abundant labor supply D a lower level of employee commitment Câu 50 Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A Today, doing just one job to earn a living is considered inappropriate, so people should jump on
the bandwagon and pursue multiple careers
B Multiple careers have some bright sides and trade-offs; thus, individuals should consider them
before making a decision
C Slash careers mean switching jobs swiftly and frequently so that people can do multiple jobs to
earn more money
D Nowadays, having a job or being jobless does not matter, as long as you trust, love, and feel
fulfilled with your choice
