Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, D on your answer sheet to indicate the best
answer to each of the following questions.
In the small rural town of Valle Apu’a, Paraguay, Marcelina Álvarez lives a life shaped by quiet strength
and unwavering resilience. Born with polio, she faced physical challenges from an early age in a community
with limited healthcare and few resources for people with dis-abilities. Yet rather than letting these stop her,
Marcelina chose a path of self-reliance and service, particularly focused on empowering the women around
her.
Question 23: The word these in paragraph 1 refers to _______.
A. challenges B. resources C. people D. members

Witnessing the economic hardships faced by many in her village, Marcelina took the initiative
to create a women’s savings group. With just $65 to start, members pooled their money to offer small, low-
interest loans to one another. Over three years, the group accumulated more than $4,000 – funds that
allowed families to launch small businesses and cover unexpected expenses. Despite her physical
limitations, Marcelina led the group with confidence and gained the respect of everyone involved.
Question 24: The word accumulated in paragraph 2 could be best replaced by _______.
A. borrowed B. wasted C. collected = amass D. donated
Question 25: Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 2?
A. Though Marcelina hesitated to take charge of – đảm nhận due to physical limitations, she quickly gained
respect.
B. Marcelina ignored her physical issues and followed the group without gaining much recognition.
C. Marcelina struggled physically but lacked confidence, causing the group to doubt her leadership.
D. Despite facing physical challenges, Marcelina confidently guided the team and earned admiration.

But her impact reached far beyond finances. She built trust among the women, encouraged self-
belief and challenged deeply-rooted assumptions about disability. In a society where many people
underestimate those with disabilities, Marcelina redefined what leadership can look like – not through visibility

or title, but through persistence and care. To her children, she is a nurturing mother. To her village, she is a
quiet force – steady, dignified, and inspiring.
Question 26: The word challenged in paragraph 3 is OPPOSITE in meaning to _______.
A. disputed B. rejected C. questioned D. approved
What makes Marcelina’s story particularly meaningful is its humility. She did not become famous or
rich. Instead, she used what she had – her insight, her empathy, and her will – to create real change. Her
leadership was not based on power or status but on empathy and determination. Marcelina’s life teaches us
that resilience is not about making loud statements but about steadily working to improve the lives of those
around us.

Several forces contribute to the idea that medicine is the ideal career.

CAO ENGLISH – ÔN LUYỆN THI TIẾNG ANH THPTQG NO PAIN NO GAIN

Kể ra gồm những forces

In many Asian households, cultural values place strong importance on education and professional
titles. Medicine is often linked with pride, stability, and the ability to care for others – qualities that many
families deeply respect. Parents may encourage their children to pursue it as a way to secure a good life and
to bring honor to the family. At school, students who say they want to become doctors are often seen as
ambitious and intelligent. Media and social platforms also influence this perception. Popular videos show
medical students organizing their notes, walking through clean hospital halls, or receiving praise from
mentors. These polished moments give the impression of an exciting, successful life.
Question 32: All of the following are mentioned in paragraph 2 as factors that make people think medicine
is the perfect career EXCEPT _______.
Trong th phân vân -> thay thế vào
A. cultural views B. family expectations
C. respected qualities-> kết quả từ cách nhìn nhận
D. online content
Question 33: The word polished – đánh bóng, trau chuốt, thổi phồng in the context of paragraph 2 is
OPPOSITE in meaning to _______.
A. practical - thực tế > viển vông- hành động
B. sincere - chân thành – con người
C. genuine - chân thật -
D. reliable – đáng tin

In reality, the journey to becoming a doctor is filled with pressure, exhaustion, and emotional
difficulty. During the early years of medical school, students are expected to absorb massive amounts of
information in short periods. It’s not just about studying hard; it’s about doing so constantly, sometimes at
the cost of sleep and social life. Later, in hospital settings, students face long shifts, fast-paced environments,
and emotionally intense experiences. They may involve serious injuries, heartbreaking stories, or even the
death of patients. At the same time, they are always expected to remain calm and deliver despite such
immense pressure. Mental health problems like burnout and depression are common, but often hidden,
because asking for help can feel like a sign of weakness.
Question 34:
1. DỊCH HẾT 2 CÂU TRƯỚC + 1 CÂU SAU / CÂU TRƯỚC + DỊCH HẾT CÂU
2. thay thế ngược lại + dịch kèm cả câu trước + câu sau
The word They in paragraph 3 refers to _______.
A. settings B. students C. environments D. experiences
Question 35: TỪ VỰNG =
1. từ đã biết = vẫn dịch
2. từ chưa biết = kỹ năng = đơn giản hóa câu – connection
The word deliver in the context of paragraph 3 can be best replaced by _______.
A. assist B. handle = perform well C. serve D. respond

Before deciding to pursue medicine, students should reflect on what truly motivates them. A
strong interest in science and a desire to help others are a good starting point, but determination and
emotional strength matter just as much. Students should ask themselves if they are ready for a long,
difficult path that may take years to complete. It’s also wise to speak with doctors or medical students to

A. If you do not have the right reasons to choose a medical career, you will face burnout before any
fulfilment.
B. Whether you face burnout or gain long-term fulfilment depends on the reasons you follow a medical
career.
C. In the long term, burnout will soon replace fulfilment if the reasons you pursue a medical career are
wrong.

reasons.
