Read the following passage and choose the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 41 to 45
Different regions have different rates of population growth, but in the 20th century, the world saw the biggest increase in its population in human history due to medical advances and massive increase in agricultural productivity made by the Green Revolution
In 2000, the United Nation estimated that the world’s population was then growing at the rate of 1.14% (or about 75 million people) per year According to data from the CIA’s 2005 – 2006 World Fact books, the world human population currently increases by 203,800 people every day The 2007 CIA fact book increased this to 211,090 people every day
Globally, the population growth rate has been steadily declining from its peak of 2.19% in 1963, but growth remains high in the Middle East and Sub-Saharan Africa
In some countries there is negative population growth, especially in Central and Eastern Europe (mainly due to low fertility rates) and Southern Africa (due to the high number of HIV – related deaths) Within the next decade, Japan and some countries in Western Europe are also expected to encounter negative population growth due to sub – replacement fertility rates

You depend on all the people closely around to give you the warm feeling of belongingness that you must have to feel secure But, in fact, the members of all the groups to which you belong also depend on you to give that feeling to them A person who shows that he wants everything for himself is bound to be a lonely wolf
The need for companionship is closely related to the need for a sense of belongingness How sad and lonely your life would be if you had no one to share your feelings and experiences You may take it for granted that there always will be people around to talk to and to things with you and for you The important point, however, is that keeping emotionally healthy does not depend so much upon having people around you as upon your ability to establish relationships that are satisfying both to you and to them
Suppose you are in a crowd watching a football game You don’t know them When the game is over, you will all go your separate ways But just for a while you had a feeling of companionship, of sharing the feelings of others who were cheering for the team you wanted to win
An experience of this kind gives the clue to what companionship really is It depends upon emotional ties of sympathy, understanding, trust, and affection Companions become friends when these ties are formed
When you are thrown in a new circle of acquaintances, you may not know with whom you will make friends, but you can be sure that you will be able to establish friendships if you show that you really like people 1 What does paragraph primarily discuss?

The Spring festival season in Vietnam starts with the Lunar New Year and closes with the celebration honoring the mythical founding fathers, the Hung Kings, on the tenth day of the third lunar month
