A White pollution is getting worse and worse B White pollution – a new type of pollution C The facts about plastic bags are scarier than what we can see D The problems caused by white pollution are increasing 31 The word “tenterhooks” in the first paragraph mostly means _ A The feeling of happiness to know the good results B The possibility of harm or death to someone C Worry or nervousness about something that is going to happen D A statement about what you think will happen in the future 32 The following are the facts about white pollution, EXCEPT _ A Five billion is the number of single-use plastic bags consumed by the world population in one year B Plastic waste makes up about one tenth of the solid waste on the Earth C It is as effortless to decay plastic bags as to manufacture them D Every year over eight million tons of plastic bags are littered in the oceans 33 What does the phrase “present trends” in paragraph refer to? A Microplastics in the seas now are much more than the stars in the sky B Million tons of plastics bags are discharged into the oceans C It takes 500 to 1,000 years to decompose the whole plastic bags D There are more plastic bags in the oceans than fish 34 What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A White pollution in Vietnam is almost out of control B Vietnamese should solve this environmental problem themselves C The state of plastic pollution in Vietnam is becoming the worst in the world D To reduce pollution, every country in the world has to join hands together Read the following passage and choose the answer to each of the question More often than not, you can't just "order up a job" by responding to an online posting and have it delivered in one or two days as if you were buying whatever your heart desires on Amazon Even as employers are hiring at a higher rate than they have in the last several years, it can often take months to work your way through the job search process If you are a new graduate yet to receive a job offer, if you recently moved to a new locale with your spouse or partner or if you are unemployed for any other reason, you may find success in your job search by spending time volunteering at a nonprofit organization Both the nonprofit and for-profit worlds need people with many of the same talents The best volunteer jobs for you to consider are ones where the experience you acquire will be applicable in the "for-pay" position you want to attain It's often the case that once you display your passion for the organization and its mission, and have demonstrated your abilities, you'll earn strong consideration when a paying position opens up that can benefit from your talents Even if you don't have a path to employment at the place you volunteer, by highlighting your volunteer experience on your resume, you can demonstrate that you haven't been wasting your time away staying at home watching the grass grow There are a few strategies you might adopt when considering at which organization you'll want to volunteer You'll probably want to make a priority of volunteering to what you've already done, or want to do, in the for-profit sector Alternatively, however, it might make sense to volunteer to something where you can turn an area of professional weakness into a new strength Remember, as well, that nonprofit organizations maintain strong relationships with their corporate sponsors, and you might look for a volunteer position that would enable you to be that nexus point between the two And, especially if you are recently out of school, you should look for positions that let you learn about an occupation, a field of interest or an industry As you try to determine what you want to volunteer to do, and where you want to it, make three lists: your marketable skills, the roles you seek and the kinds of charitable organizations you would want to support For example, perhaps your skills cluster around accounting, marketing or event planning Think about how these might come in handy for organizations that need financial help figuring out how to brand the organization to attract other volunteers or donors or run anything from charitable golf tournaments to gala dinners 35 What is the author’s main purpose in the passage? A To explain why volunteer work is always beneficial to volunteers B To advice unemployed people to voluntary work C To prove that people can have a good job via doing volunteer work D To describe the procedure to have a profit job 36 According to the first passage, the following should spend time volunteering at a nonprofit organization, EXCEPT A employers B emigrants C the jobless D new graduates 37 As mentioned in paragraph 2, what should the volunteers pay attention to when searching for an unpaid job? A They should not mention what voluntary jobs they have done in the resume B They should merely display their abilities when doing the for-pay jobs C The best type of volunteer work should be relevant to the one they want to get wages D The employers may think you have been wasting time doing nonprofit jobs 38 The word “priority” in paragraph is closest in meaning to A precedence B unimportance C demonstration D preference 39 What does the phrase “the two” in paragraph refer to? A volunteer jobs and for-profit jobs B volunteer jobs and their organizations C unpaid jobs and corporate sponsors D nonprofit organizations and corporate sponsors 40 What can be inferred from paragraph 3? A Doing the voluntary work that you’re not good at is not a good idea B Volunteering is a perfect time to change your weak points into the new good ones C Keeping contacts with corporate sponsors will help you to have a good-paid job in the future D It’s ideal for graduates to choose the positions similar to the jobs they have learnt 41 The phrase “marketable skills” in the last paragraph mostly means A the practical skills you can learn from selling things at the markets B the technical skills for a particular job C the useful skills that make an employer want to give you a job D the skills you have been taught at schools 42 Which of the following could best describe the author’s attitude about volunteering when being unemployed?
