III. READING

Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.

Approximately one in two thousand people in Viet Nam has a significant hearing loss. Students who have been deafened in early childhood can be very different to students who have lost hearing later in life in terms of educational disadvantage. For example, their range of vocabulary may be limited, which in turn may affect their level of English literacy.

Deaf and hard of hearing students can sometimes prefer visual learning strategies. This can be a challenge in an environment where much essential information is delivered exclusively by word of mouth.

Students with a hearing loss may need to use assistive technology to participate in class. This assistive technology can be the laptop where software such as Skype can be used to deliver interpreters or captioning. For some it will be in the form of listening devices. For others, it will be a combination of technology that includes both listening devices and computer based software.

The impact of hearing loss can cause delays in receiving learning material. Students who need information transcribed from tape must sometimes wait for a significant period of time for this to happen. This needs to be considered in terms of developing suitable timelines for the completion of work for each student.

Students with hearing loss may appear isolated in the learning environment. The possibility for social contact and interaction with other students is often limited, and this isolation or separateness may have an impact on learning. Participation and interaction in tutorials may be limited. Students who cannot hear the flow and nuances of rapid verbal exchange will be at a disadvantage.

Question 24. Students who have been deafened in early childhood can be very different to students have lost hearing later in life because .

A. they have less disadvantage in English literacy

B. they have a more significant hearing loss

C. their vocabulary is good enough to affect their level of English literacy

D. they suffer from more difficulty in expressing their ideas

Question 25. Assistive technology can help students with a hearing loss .

A. use software such as Skype to talk to interpreters

B. better integrate into the study environment

C. use listening devices and gain their hearing ability

D. deliver the captioning in order for them to understand

Question 26. All of the following are true according to the text EXCEPT that .

A. students with hearing impairments prefer visual learning

B. assistive techpology is useful to disabled students to follow education

C. deaf students can't complete their tasks in class

D. hearing ability may affect the level of language skills

Question 27. Learning environment can have negative impact on deaf students when .

Is There Really a Generation Gap?

According to the results of a survey in USA WEEKEND Magazine, there isn’t really a generation gap. The magazine’s “Teens & Parents” survey shows that today’s generation of young people generally get along well with their parents and appreciate the way they’re being raised. Most feel that their parents understand them, and they believe their parents consider family as the No. 1 priority in their lives. Although more than a third of teens have something in their rooms they would like to keep secret from their parents, it is usually nothing more harmful than a diary or a CD.

Such results may seem surprising in the context of the violent events that people hear about in the media. Maybe because of the things they hear, parents worry that their own kids might get out of control once they reach the teenage years. However, the facts in the survey should make us feel better. The survey shows us that today’s teens are loving and sensible. They are certainly happier than the angry people in the teenage stereotypes we all know about. True, some teenagers are very angry, and we need to recognize their needs, but the great majority of teens are not like that at all.

In contrast to some stereotypes, most teens believe they must be understanding about differences among individuals. Many of them volunteer for community service with disadvantaged people. When they talk about themselves, their friends and their families, they sound positive and proud. Generally, these are very nice kids.

Is this spirit of harmony a change from the past? Only a generation ago, parent-child relations were described as the “generation gap”. Yet even then, things were not so bad. Most kids in the 1960s and 1970s shared their parents’ basic values.

Perhaps, however, it is true that American families are growing closer at the beginning of this new millennium. Perhaps there is less to fight about, and the dangers of drug abuse and other unacceptable behavior are now well known. Perhaps, compared to the impersonal world outside the home, a young person’s family is like a friendly shelter, not a prison. And perhaps parents are acting more like parents than they did 20 or 30 years ago.

Question 36. According the first paragraph, what did the survey find out about teenagers?

A. They get along well with their parents.

B. They appreciate good CDs.

C. They keep secrets from their parents.

D. They stay in their rooms.

Question 37. According to paragraph two, parents hear things that make them worry about their own kids. What kind of things do they hear?

A. stories on the radio

B. the violent events in the media

C. funny films on TV

D. their teachers’ comments at school

Question 38. What is the stereotype referred to in paragraph 2?

A. Teens are people who recognize their needs.

B. Teens are loving and sensible.

C. Teens are much happier than we think.

D. Teens are angry people.

Question 39. What is the main subject of paragraph three?

A. Differences between teens.

B. Stereotypes about teens.

C. The positive attitude of teens to others.

D. Volunteering for disadvantaged people.

Question 40. In what way, according to the writer, are parents today different from they were a generation ago?

A. there is more to fight about

B. the dangers of drug abuse are still unknown

C. other unacceptable behaviors are now well known

D. a young person’s family is like a prison

The new device will not help all hearing-impaired people only those with a hearing loss caused by infection or some other problems in the middle ear.

IV. READING

Read the following passage and choose the best answer.

Becoming independent

Many young people strive to be independent. That means you are able to take care of yourself, and you don't have to rely on anyone else. However, to live independently, you need a number of life skills in order not to depend on your parents and older brothers or sisters. One of the most important skills is time management which can help you build your confidence and self-esteem. With good time management skills, you can perform your daily tasks, including your responsibilities at school and at home with pleasing results. Moreover, you will not feel stressed when exam dates are approaching. These skills can also help you act more independently and responsibly, get better grades at school and have more time for your family and friends.

Developing time-management skills is not as challenging as you may think. Firstly, make a plan for things you need to do, including appointments and deadlines. Using a diary or apps on mobile devices will remind you of what you need to accomplish and when you need to accomplish it. Secondly, prioritize your activities. You need to decide which tasks are the most urgent and important and then, concentrate on these first. This way, you may not be at a loss to deal with too much work at the same time. Thirdly, develop routines because routines, when established, take less time for you to do your tasks.

Time management skills are not hard to develop; once you master them, you will find out that they are great keys to success and you can become independent.

Question 31. What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Young people need a lot of life skills to be independent.

B. Teenagers can have more confidence and self-esteem if they have good time-management skills.

Traditions, saying, beliefs, language, and values are just a few things that make up our culture. Culture is the framework in which families are structured. It shapes our expectations and ideals. Culture plays a part in the meaning of marriage and our roles as husbands, wives, children and parents.

Understanding cultural differences and similarities related to marriage is important.

Understanding how relationships and marriages vary across cultural contexts, and how they are similar, we will be able to identify the unique ways that marriages and family life affect people of various cultures. As a result, we will be able to help families and sustain happy marriages.
