Tapescrips:
- Good evening. This is Oliver and this is Teen Life, where we answer questions from young people this
week. We have received a lot of health questions, so today we have Catherine Jones, our food expert, to talk
about healthy eating for teenagers and how food can affect their health. Welcome and thank you for joining
us, Catherine.
- Good evening and thank you for inviting me.
- Well, when people want to improve their health and fitness, they often think of expensive health products
and fitness programs. But in fact, we can solve many of our health problems if we just eat healthily. For
example, a lot of teenagers suffer from acne, pimples or other skin issues and often look for expensive skin
care products. This is not necessary because they can simply change their diets for better skin. Food with a
lot of sugar is not very good for your skin, so you should cut down on sugary desserts and drinks. By
contrast, brown rice, yogurt, watermelons and green vegetables are great for healthy skin. Moreover, green
vegetables can improve brain health and memory and help teens concentrate better. Teenagers are still
growing, so they also need food for building strong bones and muscles. Research shows that eggs, fish,
butter, carrots and sweet potatoes can help make them taller and stronger. Although food can't replace
exercise, eating a balanced diet supplying all the nutrients you need will definitely help improve your muscle
strength.
- I guess you are what you eat after all. Thank you, Catherine.

PART 2. 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 32.
THE GENERATION GAP IN ASIAN AMERICAN FAMILIES
For people in most cultures, the generation gap in their family is mainly about differences in musical tastes,
career choices, and lifestyles. In Asian American families, however, the process of adapting to American
culture makes the generation gap wider.
Naturally, children of Asian American immigrants adapt to American culture much faster than their parents.
English quickly becomes their first language. They accept American values such as individualism, freedom,
honesty, and competition. They also start to follow American traditions in their daily lives.
On the other hand, many first-generation Asian American parents fail to adapt to the new culture. They
continue to use their native language. They keep practicing their traditional lifestyle and old culture. They
often try to force their children to follow their native country's cultural values, such as the importance of
family, respect for the elders and the community.
Due to their different attitudes to the new culture, Asian American children may have cultural values
different from their parents' Asian cultural values. They may not do what their parents want them to do or
what they are expected to do. As a result, Asian American parents may fail to have their children follow the
family traditional values.

B. Read the passage and circle the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the best answer to each of the
following questions.
Technology is playing a big role in fighting climate change. One way it helps is through renewable
energy. Solar panels and wind turbines are becoming more common. In 2020, solar power generated about
10% of the world’s electricity, and wind power contributed around 7%. These technologies help reduce the
use of fossil fuels, which are major contributors to global warming.
Electric cars are another example. They produce no emissions, which means they help reduce air
pollution. In 2021, sales of electric cars increased by 50% compared to the previous year. This rise in
electric car use shows that people are starting to choose cleaner transportation options.
Smart home technology also makes a difference. Devices like smart thermostats help save energy by
adjusting heating and cooling based on when people are home. For example, using a smart thermostat can
reduce energy bills by up to 10%.
Finally, technology is helping with monitoring and data collection. Satellites track changes in the climate
and provide valuable information for scientists. This data helps in understanding climate patterns and
making better decisions to protect the environment.
Overall, technology is a powerful tool in the fight against climate change, helping to make our world a
cleaner and more sustainable place.

the passage?
A. Monitoring climate changes with satellites B. Reducing energy use with smart thermostats
C. Recycling waste products D. Reducing air pollution with electric cars

Global warming is the phenomenon of a gradual increase of the

Earth's average temperature due to the rise of greenhouse gases
in the atmosphere. These gases like carbon dioxide and methane
escape into the air and act like a warm blanket over the Earth to
prevent some of the heat from escaping into space, which keeps
our planet warm enough for plants, animals and humans to live
in. This is known as the greenhouse effect. However, there's a
problem when people all over the world are adding extra carbon
dioxide to the atmosphere by burning fossil fuels like oil and
coal for our everyday and industrial activities.
Global warming leads to some serious changes on Earth. For
example, the sea levels are rising. Every year, the sea rises another 13 inches (3.2
mm.). This is mostly due to a combination of melted water from glaciers and ice
sheets and thermal expansion of seawater as it warms. The rising sea levels have a
profound impact on our oceans and marine life. They are changing the distribution
of fish stocks and their food. The rising sea levels can also have devastating effects
on coastal habitats farther inland with destructive erosion, wetland flooding, soil
contamination with salt and habitat loss for fish, birds and plants.
Using less fossil fuel to limit the amount of carbon released to the air is considered as the best way to slow
down global warming. However, it is hard to do as our modern life mainly relies on non-renewable energy.
Therefore, by driving less, turning down the heat and air conditioning, and using more solar, wind and
hydroelectric power, we can all reduce greenhouse gases and help fight global warming.
Question 51. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A. The increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere makes the Earth warmer.
B. Carbon dioxide helps to release the Earth's heat.
C. The burning of oil and coal releases carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.
D. Global warming is the warming of the Earth's temperature.
Question 52. What does the word "devastating" in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. harmful B. careful C. wonderful D. plentiful
Question 53. What does global warming cause?
A. a reduction of sea level B. a stability of sea level
C. a leap of sea level D. a decrease in ocean temperatures
Question 54. What do the rising sea levels affect?
A sea life B. carbon dioxide C industrial activities D. fossil fuel
Question 55. Which of the following statements is NOT MENTIONED in the passage?
A. Greenhouse gases prevent the heat from escaping into space.
B. Too much carbon dioxide to the atmosphere becomes a matter to the Earth's atmosphere.
C. Soil contamination is a result of global warming.
D. Renewable energy is cheaper than fossil fuels.

Vietnam and ASEAN Trade Agreements
Vietnam is part of a big group called ASEAN. ASEAN means Association of Southeast Asian Nations.
There are ten countries in ASEAN, including Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, and Singapore.
ASEAN countries work together to help each other. One way they do this is through trade agreements.
Trade agreements are rules that help countries buy and sell things to each other more easily.
Vietnam joined ASEAN in 1995. Since then, it has been part of many trade agreements. These
agreements help Vietnam sell its products to other ASEAN countries. They also make it easier for Vietnam
to buy things it needs from these countries.
What does Vietnam sell to other ASEAN countries? Vietnam sells many things like rice, coffee, clothes,
and phones. What do other ASEAN countries sell to Vietnam? They sell things like oil, machines, and cars.
These trade agreements are good for Vietnam. They help Vietnamese businesses grow and create more jobs.
They also help Vietnamese people buy things from other countries at lower prices.
One important agreement is called the ASEAN Free Trade Area (AFTA). This agreement helps remove
taxes on many products traded between ASEAN countries. This makes products cheaper and easier to buy.
Vietnam's trade with ASEAN countries grows every year. In 2020, Vietnam's trade with ASEAN was
worth about $53 billion. This shows how important these trade agreements are for Vietnam and its ASEAN
friends.
