correct answer to each of the questions from 34 to 38.
Most people know that a balanced diet and regular exercise are very important. However, most people do
not know how to exercise properly. Exercising the right way is important for people who are worried
about their health and their appearance. However, if someone is not working out properly, it is rare that
he or she will see the results he or she wants. If you want to achieve the best workout results, here are a
few helpful tips to bear in mind.
One of the most common workout mistakes is doing the same routine over and over again. This does not
challenge your muscles, and it can actually prevent muscles from growing and repairing themselves.
Instead of always sticking to the same old workout, it is important to change your routine every six to
eight weeks.
It is also important to add a variety of workouts to your routine, such as swimming, yoga, or biking, to
4
make sure your whole body stays fit.
Another mistake people tend to make is to work out too hard, too often. Your body needs to rest between
workouts; otherwise, no progress will be made. It is best to keep the number of hard workout routines to
no more than two per week. Then, for those who don't want to get off schedule by skipping a day, shorter
workouts of about twenty minutes can be used on other days. For more variety in workouts, you could
also plan an easier routine for forty to sixty minutes between days of shorter, more intense workouts.
Experts recommend, however, taking at least one day off completely each week, especially after several
hard workout days in a row. If you want to make a difference in your overall health, there are some
things you can do. Stretch before and after every workout. Do not rush your routine, and do not work out
too little or too much.

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 39 to 45.

along with the rich variety of life and the AUS$6 billion tourism industry that depends on it. The heating
of the planet will push many struggling species over the brink. Some will just have no place left to go. For
biodiversity, climate change is, in military jargon, a threat multiplier. Worse still, measures to limit
nhiên liệu sinh học
warming often don't take biodiversity into account. Some, such as the push for biofuels, directly harm it.
The world has warmed around 1⁰C since pre-industrial times. That is already having a dramatic
effect on wildlife. In the Arctic, for example, the loss of more and more sea ice each summer is affecting
many animals, from walruses to polar bears. Polar inhabitants have nowhere colder to go, but many
creatures elsewhere are already moving to stay in their comfort zone. Some marine species, including
mammals, birds, fish and plankton, have shifted their ranges by hundreds of kilometers. Rising sea levels,
meanwhile, could wipe out species as low-lying islands are inundated. Mainland species are also at risk,
such as the few hundred Bengal tigers in the Sundarbans, a network of mangrove forests along the coast
of Bangladesh and north-east India. The effects of habitat destruction and rising water levels mean there
will probably be no suitable habitat left there for these tigers by 2070.
Some threats to biodiversity can't be forecast with any certainty. For instance, people forced from
their homes by disasters or conflict can have a severe impact on biodiversity in the places they flee to,
rapidly deforesting vast areas and greatly reducing wildlife populations. Floods and storms displaced 15
million people in 2018 alone, and these numbers will rise as extreme weather keeps on getting more
extreme. flee (v): chạy trốn

For all these reasons, there is growing awareness that climate change and biodiversity are
inextricably linked, and that we need joined-up policies to tackle both. Many initiatives and studies
around the world show that we can protect biodiversity and tackle climate change while offering a better
and fairer future for people.
