Read the following passage about the use of technology in education and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your
answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 1 to 10.
Technology has revolutionised almost every sector of society, and education is no exception. [I] Online platforms,
virtual classrooms, and AI-powered tutoring systems have become commonplace, altering the traditional classroom
model. [II] This shift toward digital learning environments has been influenced by several factors, including the need
for flexibility, accessibility, and personalized education. [III] Additionally, the growing reliance on technology in
everyday life has further accelerated the adoption of digital tools in education, making it a crucial part of modern learning
strategies. [IV]
There are numerous reasons why educational institutions are adopting digital tools. For one, remote learning offers
flexibility for students with different schedules or responsibilities. Additionally, digital platforms enable access to
quality education in rural or underserved areas where traditional schools may be scarce. On the other hand, the demand
for tech-based learning is also driven by students’ expectations for interactive, personalised experiences and the growing
importance of digital literacy in the job market. Moreover, digital tools can significantly enhance classroom engagement
by incorporating multimedia elements such as videos, simulations, and gamified assessments, which cater to diverse
learning styles and keep students motivated.
However, the rise of edtech (educational technology) brings significant challenges alongside its benefits. For instance,
the digital devices continue to affect low-income families who may lack them or reliable internet access. This disparity
can lead to unequal learning outcomes. Moreover, over-reliance on screens and AI tools raises concerns about reduced
human interaction, student motivation, and data privacy. They also face difficulties in adapting to new technologies,
especially when proper guidance and digital literacy training are not provided.
Digital transformation in education is a complex evolution, which must be fully understood to harness its benefits
without amplifying inequalities. Through thoughtful policy-making, investment in infrastructure, and teacher training,
we can ensure that technology serves as a tool for empowerment rather than exclusion. Furthermore, it is crucial to
foster digital literacy not only among students but also among communities, ensuring that all stakeholders, including
parents and local leaders, are equipped to support the integration of technology in education. By doing so, we can create
a more inclusive, collaborative environment that bridges the digital device.

Trang 4/5 - Mã đề 1101
Unfortunately, when we lose an ecosystem, we also lose many species and natural resources. For example, the tropical
rainforest is home to an immense variety of plants and animals, many of which cannot be found anywhere else. Their
role in maintaining global weather patterns is indispensable, and deforestation has already affected regions such as the
Amazon Basin.
In some areas, conservation projects are being developed to preserve endangered ecosystems. Large-scale reforestation
efforts are being made to protect rainforests in South America and Africa. Governments are also introducing policies
aimed at reducing emissions and protecting biodiversity. In addition, local communities are being engaged in these
initiatives, as they play a crucial role in the success of conservation efforts. By raising awareness and providing
education on sustainable practices, these communities are empowered to contribute to the preservation of their natural
surroundings. They have the knowledge and resources necessary to implement these changes and inspire others to take
action.
Technology offers a possible solution to saving endangered ecosystems. Various initiatives focus on satellite imaging
and real-time data tracking to monitor environmental changes. These tools can help scientists and governments track
deforestation, illegal logging, and other harmful activities in remote areas, providing actionable insights for conservation
efforts.
