Mental health issues such as anxiety and depression were a leading cause of global health problems

Among the most affected are young adults and women The surge in people struggling with mental
illnesses has coincided with gaps in mental care services as well
Research suggests that the pandemic has exacerbated the impacts of loneliness Additionally, people’s fear of missing out, also known as FOMO, hasn’t decreased even since in-person social gatherings became less frequent But small daily actions - such as a short walk, break from social media or even a catnap - can add up to have an impact on mental health Separately, counselling, therapy and medication prescribed by health care providers are effective treatments for those experiencing mental illness

XIV Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
The average daily time spent online by adults increased by nearly an hour during the UK’s spring lockdown when compared to the previous year, according to communications regulator Ofcom, with numerous countries back under severe pandemic restrictions, many of us once again find ourselves questioning whether our heavy reliance on technology is impacting our health
It’s true that digital devices have provided new means of work, education, connection, and
entertainment during lockdown But the perceived pressure to be online, the tendency to procrastinate to avoid
undertaking tasks, and the use of digital platforms as a way to escape stress all have the potential to turn healthy behaviours into habits This repetitive use can develop into addictive patterns, which can in turn affect a user’s wellbeing
Digital addiction refers to the addictive and excessive use of digital devices The design of digital platforms themselves contributes to this addictive use Notifications, news feeds, likes and comments have all
been shown to contribute towards a battle for your attention, which leads users to increase the time they spend
looking at screens
Screen time is an obvious measure of digital addiction, although researchers have noted that there is no simple way to determine how much screen time one can experience before it becomes problematic As such,
there is a continued lack of consensus on how we should think about and measure digital addiction.
During a global pandemic, when there often feels like no alternative to using Netflix, or video conferencing with friends and family, screen time as an indicator of digital addiction is clearly ineffective Nonetheless, research conducted on preventing digital addiction does provide insights on how we can all engage with our digital technologies in a healthier way during a lockdown
Adapted from: https://theconversation.com/five-ways-to-manage-your-screen-time-in-a-
lochdown-according-to-tech-experts-152715

Question 3: The word “they” in paragraph 3 refers to .
A notifications B users C digital platforms D researchers
Question 4: The word “consensus” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to .
Question 5: Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A The way to measure digital addiction needs to be studied more.B Digital addiction happens when people use digital devices moderately.C The design of social platforms is not related to overuse of digital devices.D It is not hard to decide the problematic amount of screen time
Question 6: Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?

XIII Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Mental health issues such as anxiety and depression were a leading cause of global health problems
even before the spread of COVID-19; however, they’ve gotten worse Since the first year of the COVID-19
pandemic, anxiety and depression rates worldwide have increased by an overwhelming 25% In the U.S, 4 in 10 adults have reported symptoms of anxiety or depression during the pandemic, compared with 1 in 10 from January to June 2019
Among the most affected are young adults and women The surge in people struggling with mental
illnesses has coincided with gaps in mental care services as well
Research suggests that the pandemic has exacerbated the impacts of loneliness Additionally, people’s fear of missing out, also known as FOMO, hasn’t decreased even since in-person social gatherings became less frequent But small daily actions - such as a short walk, break from social media or even a catnap - can add up to have an impact on mental health Separately, counselling, therapy and medication prescribed by health care providers are effective treatments for those experiencing mental illness

XIV Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
The average daily time spent online by adults increased by nearly an hour during the UK’s spring lockdown when compared to the previous year, according to communications regulator Ofcom, with numerous countries back under severe pandemic restrictions, many of us once again find ourselves questioning whether our heavy reliance on technology is impacting our health
It’s true that digital devices have provided new means of work, education, connection, and
Trang 17entertainment during lockdown But the perceived pressure to be online, the tendency to procrastinate to avoid
undertaking tasks, and the use of digital platforms as a way to escape stress all have the potential to turn healthy behaviours into habits This repetitive use can develop into addictive patterns, which can in turn affect a user’s wellbeing
Digital addiction refers to the addictive and excessive use of digital devices The design of digital platforms themselves contributes to this addictive use Notifications, news feeds, likes and comments have all
been shown to contribute towards a battle for your attention, which leads users to increase the time they spend
looking at screens
Screen time is an obvious measure of digital addiction, although researchers have noted that there is no simple way to determine how much screen time one can experience before it becomes problematic As such,
there is a continued lack of consensus on how we should think about and measure digital addiction.
During a global pandemic, when there often feels like no alternative to using Netflix, or video conferencing with friends and family, screen time as an indicator of digital addiction is clearly ineffective Nonetheless, research conducted on preventing digital addiction does provide insights on how we can all engage with our digital technologies in a healthier way during a lockdown
Adapted from: https://theconversation.com/five-ways-to-manage-your-screen-time-in-a-
lochdown-according-to-tech-experts-152715
Question 1: Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A Digital Addiction During Pandemic Lockdown B The Effect of Covid-19 LockdownC Forms of Digital Entertainment D Research about Digital Addiction
Question 2: The word “procrastinate” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to .
Question 3: The word “they” in paragraph 3 refers to .
A notifications B users C digital platforms D researchers
Question 4: The word “consensus” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to .
Question 5: Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A The way to measure digital addiction needs to be studied more.B Digital addiction happens when people use digital devices moderately.C The design of social platforms is not related to overuse of digital devices.D It is not hard to decide the problematic amount of screen time
Question 6: Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A During the spring lockdown, the daily amount of time people spend online increased by nearly one hour compared to the previous year
B Digital devices create a new means of entertainment.C The use of digital platforms cannot become addictive.D People use digital platforms to escape from anxiety

Try to imagine what life would be like if there were no electric lights, no television, or no cars What if you had no running water to take a shower and no refrigerator to keep your food cold? Life would be tough without these great inventions
Since ancient times, people have been inventing new machines, materials, and ways of doing things The people who come up with new things are called inventors Sometimes an inventor makes an invention to solve a problem Sometimes an inventor discovers something new by accident
Everyone probably has his or her favorite inventions One great invention was the printing press A German named Johannes Gutenberg in the 1400s invented a press that made it easy to print books Books became much more common after the invention of the printing press The books helped other inventors make new things
The invention of the steam engine around 1700 led to the Industrial Revolution Inventors made many new machines that were powered by steam engines They invented locomotives, steamboats, and all kinds of factory machines
Another great invention, the internal combustion engine, led to the invention of automobiles in the
late 1800s Inventors made better and better internal combustion engines These are the engines we use today
in cars, trucks, buses, and airplanes
The discovery of electricity led to many wonderful inventions Many scientists studied electricity An American inventor named Thomas A Edison invented the electric lamp, phonograph, and other things
that ran on electricity in the late 1800s.
New things are invented today faster than ever before Inventors are making new kitchen appliances, toys, computers, video games, telephones, and all kinds of other things

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 34 to 40.
Each advance in microscopic technique has provided scientists with new perspective, on the function of living organisms and the nature of matter itself The invention of the visible-light microscope late in the sixteenth century introduced a previously unknown realm of single-celled plants and animals In the
twentieth century, electron microscopes have provided direct views of viruses and minuscule surface
structures Now another type of microscope, one that utilizes X rays rather than light or electrons, offers a
different way of examining tiny details; it should extend human perception still farther into the natural world.
The dream of building an X-ray microscope dates to 1895; its development, however, was virtually hafted in the 1940's because the development of the electron microscope was progressing rapidly During the 1940's electron microscopes routinely achieved resolution better than that possible with a visible-light microscope, while the performance of X-ray microscopes resisted improvement In recent years, however, interest in X-ray microscopes has revived, largely because of advances such as the development of new sources of X-ray illumination As a result, the brightness available today is millions of times that of X-ray tubes, which, for most of the century, were the only available sources of soft X-rays
The new X-ray microscopes considerably improve on the resolution provided by optical microscopes They can also be used to map the distribution of certain chemical elements Some can form pictures in extremely short times; others hold the promise of special capabilities such as three-dimensional imaging
Unlike conventional electron microscopy, X-ray microscopy enables specimens to be kept in air and in
water, which means that biological samples can be studied under conditions similar to their natural state The illumination used, so-called soft X rays in the wavelength range of twenty to forty angstroms (an angstrom is one ten-billionth of a meter), is also sufficiently penetrating to image intact biological cells in many cases Because of the wavelength of the X rays used, soft X-ray microscopes will never match the highest resolution
possible with electron microscopes Rather, their special properties will make possible investigations that will complement those performed with light- and electron-based instruments.
Question 34: What does the passage mainly discuss?A The detail seen through a microscopeB Sources of illumination for microscope
Question 35: The word "minuscule" in the first paragraph is opposite in meaning to .
Question 36: The word "enables" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to .
Question 37: Why did it take so long to develop the X-ray microscope?A Funds for research were insufficient.
B The source of illumination was not bright enough until recentlyC Materials used to manufacture X-ray tubes were difficult to obtain.D X-ray microscopes were too complicated to operate.
Question 38: The word "it" in paragraph 1 refers to .A a type of microscopeB human perceptionC the natural world D lightQuestion 39: According to the passage, the invention of the visible-light microscope allowed scientists to
A see viruses directlyB develop the electron microscope later onC understand more about the distribution of the chemical elementsD discover single-celled plants and animals they had never seen beforeQuestion 40: Based on the information in the passage, what can be inferred about X-ray microscopes in the
future?
A They will probably replace electron microscopes altogether.B They will eventually be much cheaper to produce than they are now.C They will provide information not available from other kinds of microscopes.D They will eventually chance the illumination range that they now use.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 34 to 40.
Each advance in microscopic technique has provided scientists with new perspective, on the function of living organisms and the nature of matter itself The invention of the visible-light microscope late in the sixteenth century introduced a previously unknown realm of single-celled plants and animals In the
twentieth century, electron microscopes have provided direct views of viruses and minuscule surface
structures Now another type of microscope, one that utilizes X rays rather than light or electrons, offers a
different way of examining tiny details; it should extend human perception still farther into the natural world.
The dream of building an X-ray microscope dates to 1895; its development, however, was virtually hafted in the 1940's because the development of the electron microscope was progressing rapidly During the 1940's electron microscopes routinely achieved resolution better than that possible with a visible-light microscope, while the performance of X-ray microscopes resisted improvement In recent years, however, interest in X-ray microscopes has revived, largely because of advances such as the development of new sources of X-ray illumination As a result, the brightness available today is millions of times that of X-ray tubes, which, for most of the century, were the only available sources of soft X-rays
The new X-ray microscopes considerably improve on the resolution provided by optical microscopes They can also be used to map the distribution of certain chemical elements Some can form pictures in extremely short times; others hold the promise of special capabilities such as three-dimensional imaging
Unlike conventional electron microscopy, X-ray microscopy enables specimens to be kept in air and in
water, which means that biological samples can be studied under conditions similar to their natural state The illumination used, so-called soft X rays in the wavelength range of twenty to forty angstroms (an angstrom is one ten-billionth of a meter), is also sufficiently penetrating to image intact biological cells in many cases Because of the wavelength of the X rays used, soft X-ray microscopes will never match the highest resolution
possible with electron microscopes Rather, their special properties will make possible investigations that will complement those performed with light- and electron-based instruments.
Question 34: What does the passage mainly discuss?A The detail seen through a microscopeB Sources of illumination for microscope
Question 35: The word "minuscule" in the first paragraph is opposite in meaning to .
Question 36: The word "enables" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to .
Question 37: Why did it take so long to develop the X-ray microscope?A Funds for research were insufficient.
B The source of illumination was not bright enough until recentlyC Materials used to manufacture X-ray tubes were difficult to obtain.D X-ray microscopes were too complicated to operate.
Question 38: The word "it" in paragraph 1 refers to .A a type of microscopeB human perceptionC the natural world D lightQuestion 39: According to the passage, the invention of the visible-light microscope allowed scientists to
A see viruses directlyB develop the electron microscope later onC understand more about the distribution of the chemical elementsD discover single-celled plants and animals they had never seen beforeQuestion 40: Based on the information in the passage, what can be inferred about X-ray microscopes in the
future?
A They will probably replace electron microscopes altogether.B They will eventually be much cheaper to produce than they are now.C They will provide information not available from other kinds of microscopes.D They will eventually chance the illumination range that they now use.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 29 to 33.
Vietnam’s population is ageing quickly In 2017, more than 10 per cent of the population will be 60 and older, and in 15-20 years the elderly will account for one third of the total population This raises concerns about healthcare, welfare and pensions for the elderly at a time when Vietnam is focusing on economic integration and requires a large labor force So far two solutions have been proposed: to loosen the two-child policy and to increase the retirement age to 58 for women and 62 for men By ending the two-child policy the government expects to make up for the ageing population within the next 20 years
But its effect could be creating an uncontrollable boom in the Vietnamese population When the
government loosened the two-child policy in 2015 in a trial period, in the first 6 months of 2016 the third child birth rate increased remarkably by 7.5 per cent
Raising the retirement age has been proposed by the Ministry of Labor pending parliamentary evaluation in May 2017 While the policy is beneficial in utilizing the work experience of the elderly while creating savings in the pension budget, it also means fewer job prospects and promotion opportunities for younger generations It is also not in the interest of all the elderly, especially the 70 per cent of Vietnam's labor force working in manual labor-intensive sectors such as agriculture, manufacturing and construction where working above the age of 50 can be dangerous and unproductive Despite these drawbacks, raising the retirement age is still considered by policymakers as one of the key
solutions to the ageing population problem in Vietnam However, these are only temporary solutions.Question 29 The best title for this passage could be .
A Vietnam struggling with ageing population B Stopping the two-child policy in VietnamC Raising the retirement age in Vietnam D How to solve the aging population in Vietnam
Question 30 Which statement is probably TRUE according to the information in the paragraph 1?
A In 2017, the elderly take up for one third of the total population, this leads to more concerns about healthcare, welfare and pensions for the elderly
B In 2015, the two-child policy has been officially tightened and succeeded.C The government would promote families to have two children to compensate for the ageing population within the next 20 years
D In the next 15-17 years, Vietnam's economy will need a large labor force to integrate with global economy
Question 31 The word "temporary" in paragraph 2 means .
A constant B permanent C short-term D long-term
Question 32 The word “its" in paragraph 1 refers to ?

Vocational learning opportunities play a critical role in skill development In non- vocational studies, students often spend hours of their time exploring a variety of different subjects Their class time tends to be only a few hours per week, as they will spend many hours in the library and on computers conducting research and writing papers that help them continue to build their theoretical knowledge in a variety of fields
Even within their chosen discipline, they often spend a significant amount of time exploring theory and ideas used by other professionals in the industry They have significantly fewer opportunities to actually put these ideas to work compared to students going through a vocational education situation The skills for work and vocation are significantly limited for these students, as their theoretical
knowledge does not have the work experience that helps them transition from a classroom study topic
into their actual profession This can sometimes cause challenges when the students graduate and transition into the working world
However, for students in vocational education and training, this situation gets corrected Students
spend hours in the practical workshops each week learning hands-on practical skills related to their
chosen field Class time tends to increase in these schools, compared to their outside research time,
because students spend more time exploring actual work opportunities that prepare them for their future
jobs They do not focus as much time on researching the theoretical as learning the practical
Students also have courses that will help them use the highly specialised equipment that they need to do their jobs well Rather than simply learning about this type of equipment or how it might be useful in the job, they actually have the chance to try out their own skills while still in school When the time comes for them to transition to an actual job, they have the experience they need to begin the job right away They will not have to spend time learning how to physically operate the equipment on the job, allowing them to become a valuable employee and build a career faster

Fish that live on the sea bottom benefit by being flat and hugging the contours There are two very different types of flatfish and they have evolved in very separate ways The skates and rays, relatives of the sharks have become flat in what might be called the obvious way Their bodies have grown out sideways to form great “wings” They look as though they have been flattened but have remained symmetrical and “the right way up” Conversely fish such as plaice, sole, and halibut have become flat in a different way There are bony fish which have a marked tendency to be flattened in a vertical direction; they are much “taller” than they are wide They use their whole vertically flattened bodies as swimming surfaces, which undulate through the water as they move Therefore when their ancestors migrated to the seabed, they lay on one side than on their bellies However, this raises the problem that one eye was always looking down into the sand and was effectively useless - In evolution this problem was solved by the lower eye “moving” around the other side We see this process of moving around enacted in the development of every young bony flatfish It starts life swimming near the surface, and is symmetrical and vertically flattened, but then the skull starts to grow in a strange asymmetrical twisted fashion, so that one eye for instance the left, moves over the top of the head upwards, an old Picasso - like vision Incidentally, some species of 20 flatfish settle on the right side, others on the left, and others on either side

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions
Hawaii is often considered to be one place in the world where you can find paradise But when I
arrived in Hawaii, I was shocked to discover beaches were covered in plastic rubbish washed up from
around the world As I dug through the sand, I realised the sandy beach was being transformed into a
plastic beach A chill went down my spine From the beaches of Hawaii to the seas around Britain, we are
polluting our own environment
Beaches are now covered in more rubbish than ever before The plastic we see on our beaches is just a small amount of the plastic waste that exists in our oceans Scientists believe that sea currents have created five huge garbage areas in our oceans, including the one in the North Atlantic This is a global problem for which we are all responsible
Plastic makes our life easier, but its production and use are completely out of control Because plastic rubbish in the oceans looks like food, it is being eaten by small fish, which in turn is eaten by large fish, which in turn is eaten by us Plastic is damaging our beaches, polluting the oceans, and poisoning our
food chain The consequences are still not fully understood, but they are likely to be terrible.
We need to stop using plastic bags for packaging and single-use water bottles These make up most of the plastic garbage in the oceans In Bangladesh and Kenya, they have stopped using plastic bags completely The UK has put a tax on plastic bags Many supermarkets around the world are not packing goods in plastic
The future of our beaches, our seas, and the food chain is at risk This is an environmental problem
that we need to solve immediately
