Teenagers often complain they’re bored and have nothing to do. I can’t understand them. I’m
never bored.
If the weather is nice, we go for a walk, or we ride our bikes. We often play football, basketball in
the park and when it is rainy, we go to the sports centre. Here we usually play table tennis or go
swimming. If you play a musical instrument, it’s a good fun! I play the guitar and practice a lot.
At home, I usually listen to music or read magazines and books. Of course, like other teenagers, I
often go on the Internet or play computer games - but not always! It’s a pity that many teenagers live
their lives on several public sites like Facebook or Twitter! They had better make real friends!

III. READING
Exercise 1. Read the passage and choose the best answers.
Many people enjoy living in a big city because they think life is more exciting there. However, I
come from a small village and in my view, there are lots of benefits. The main reason I prefer village
life is because it’s very quiet, so 1 always feel calm when I’m here. Another reason is that the air is so
fresh and clean. We have more green spaces and bigger gardens, too. In addition, I think the people
here are friendlier. Personally, I’m interested in wildlife photography, so the countryside is perfect for
me.
The only downside is transport. I have an early start for a long journey to school in Faro and the
school bus is always stopping to pick up more people. Also, it’s boring sometimes, but I enjoy chatting

biggest causes. First, it is important to do your best and study hard, but you may push yourself too
much to get a high grade, and (2) can be hard to deal with. Second, many schools
want to show their students’ high test grades to prove that they are doing a good job of educating them;
(3), they have high expectations for the teachers, who then have high expectations for
the students. In addition, most parents want to see great school reports, and they can start pushing their
children when test time comes around. Moreover, if you had a bad time with a test in the past, or if you
have (4) poorly on one or more tests, you could feel anxious about the next one.
Finally, sometimes other students can spread rumours about a test, (5) you might hear
things from older friends or siblings. Rumours like “That teacher’s tests are totally impossible to pass!”
can make you a lot more nervous.

Exercise 2. Read the passage, and then decide whether the statements that follow are True (T) or
False (F).
Teenagers today live in a very competitive world. It is more important than ever to succeed at
school if you hope to have a chance in the job market afterwards. It’s no wonder that many young
people worry about letting down their parents, their peers and themselves. To try to please everyone,
they take on too many tasks until it becomes harder and harder to balance homework assignments,
parties, sports activities and friends. The result is that young people suffer from stress.
There are different ways of dealing with stress. Everyone knows that caffeine, in the form of

49
Giaoandethitienganh.info sưu tầm
coffee or soft drinks, keeps you awake and alert. But caffeine is a drug which can become addictive. In
the end, like other drugs, caffeine only leads to more stress. There are better ways to deal with stress:
physical exercise is a good release for stress, because it increases certain chemicals in the brain which
calm you down. You have to get enough sleep to avoid stress and to stay healthy and full of energy.

You can do a few things to make homework less (1) . First, be sure you understand
the assignment. Write it down in your notebook or day planner if you need to, (2)
don’t be afraid to ask questions about what is expected. It is much easier to take a minute to ask the
teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later that night! If you want, you can also ask
how long the particular homework assignment should take to complete, so you can (3)

Second, use any extra time you have in school to work on your homework. Many schools have (4)
that are specifically designed to allow students to study (5) get
homework done. The more work you can get done in school, the less you will have to do that night.
Third, pace yourself. If you don’t (6) your homework during school, think about
how much you have left and what else is going on that day, and then plan your time. Most middle
students should have between 1 and 3 hours of homework a night. If it is a heavy homework day, you
will need to (7) more time to do homework.
No one is expected to (8) everything, and maybe you need some help. The first
place to turn for help is your teacher. But if you don’t feel comfortable with your teacher? If you are in
a big enough school, there may be other teachers who teach the same subject. Speak to other teachers
directly and you may be in luck. Sometimes it just helps to have someone (9)
something in a different way. Moreover, you might also be able to get some help from another (10)
. If there is someone you like who is a good student, think about asking that person if
you can study together.

Exercise 8. Read the passage and choose the best answers.
I was growing up and raised in a small town in the northern part of Thailand before staying in the
big city in order to finish high school. My rural town is in the middle of the way between 2 cities. It is
surrounded by a great mountain and an abundance of forest. The population density is lower than the
city, but the population increases every year.
Agriculture is a crucial industry in my hometown. Most of the folks are farmers, agriculturalists,
and orchardists. There are plenty of farmlands and hills, and there are so many traders, merchandise,
and business owners in my district. The market is the centre of exchanging goods and products. Once
said, if you want to know the economy of the community, you will have to look at the market. People
usually spend time in the market, especially in the morning. There are many restaurants and
accommodations for travellers.
My country has a diversity of food. In general, the food is divided into two groups. They are Thai
food and local food. Thai food refers to food that most Thais know well. Most restaurants sell. Thai
people can eat everywhere around the world. Local food or traditional food means food of the region.
Every region has its food and recipes. My district is in the Northern part of Thailand. Northern Thai
food or Lana food is abundant. My community has so many local food restaurants. Moreover, some
families still cook Lanna food. Thus, the people have choices about what they want to eat and consume
today.

Exercise 9. Read the passage and decide if the following statements are true (T) or false (F).
Social media is a big part of many teens’ lives. A 2018 Pew Research Centre survey of nearly
750 13 to 17 year olds found that 45% are online almost constantly and 97% use a social media
platform, such as YouTube, Facebook, Instagram or Snapchat.
Social media allows teens to create online identities, communicate with others and build social
networks. These networks can provide teens with valuable support, especially helping those who
experience exclusion or have disabilities or chronic illnesses. Teens also use social media for
entertainment and self-expression. And the platforms can expose teens to current events, allow them
to interact across geographic barriers and teach them about a variety of subjects, including healthy
behaviours. Social media that’s humorous or distracting or provides a meaningful connection to peers
and a wide social network might even help teens avoid depression.
However, social media use can also negatively affect teens, distracting them, disrupting their sleep,
and exposing them to bullying, rumour spreading, unrealistic views of other people’s lives and peer
pressure. The risks might be related to how much social media teens use. A 2019 study of more than
6,500 12 to 15 year olds in the U.S. found that those who spent more than three hours a day using
social media might be at heightened risk of mental health problems. Another 2019 study of more than
12,000 13 to 16 year olds in England found that using social media more than three times a day
predicted poor mental health and well-being in teens.

Exercise 2. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions.

The Dao ethnic group, which has many names such as Đông, Trại, Dìu Miền, and Kim Miền, has
a total population of nearly 1 million people. They live mainly in the northern mountain provinces of
Cao Bang, Ha Giang, Lao Cai, Yen Bai, Lai Chau and Tuyen Quang and the midland provinces of Phu
Tho, Vinh Phuc, and Hoa Binh.
A small number of the Dao group, who traditionally live in the northern mountain provinces, have
migrated to the Central Highlands. There are many subgroups differentiated by habits, customs, and
costumes, for example, the Red Dao, Dao Quần Chẹt, Dao Lo Ga, White Pants Dao, and Dao Thanh Y.
Each Dao group is easily identified by their costumes. Generally, a woman’s costume includes a shirt,
skirt, headscarf, a pair of leggings, and jewellery. A man wears a short shirt with a line of buttons.
Doctor Vo Mai Phuong of the Viet Nam Museum of Ethnology says: “The Red Dao people wear red
costumes from top to toe. They have red shirts, leggings, pants, headscarves, and belts. The Dao Tien
are the only Dao group who wear skirts embroidered with the images of coins. The Dao Quan Chat are
also called Sơn Đầu, which means painted head, because the women shave off their hair, paint their
heads, and cover their heads with traditional headscarves. The White Pants Dao always wear white
pants.”
The Dao have maintained their traditional culture in costumes and language. Although they
include many groups living in many different localities, they speak one language.
Social development and integration have affected many ethnic minority customs, but the Dao
people have maintained their unique cultural values and in doing so have helped to preserve and
promote the culture of Vietnam’s 54 ethnic groups.

is the traditional cake, and kinds of jam. On New Year’s Eve, the whole family gets

5. A. visited B. visiting C. to visit D. visit
Exercise 2. Read then decide whether the following sentences are True (T) or False (F).
Worshipping “Ong Cong, Ong Tao’’ (Land Genie and Kitchen Gods) is a long-standing custom of
great significance as it symbolises the farewell to all bad things of the old year to help people relaxedly
enter a new year of peace and happiness. As the legend goes, “Ong Cong” (Land Genie) is the one in
charge of land while “Ong Tao” (Kitchen Gods), consisting of two males and one female, are those
who keep a watch over kitchen affairs of a family. They take note of a family’s issues in a year and will
ride carps back to Heaven on the 23rd day of the 12th lunar month to report all the good and bad things
of that family to the God of Heaven.
Rituals and offerings vary according to region. Typically, apart from lamps, incense, votive
Giaoandethitienganh.info sưu tầm
papers, fresh flowers, and a five-fruit tray, there is also a tray of traditional dishes such as steamed
sticky rice, chicken, pork pie, fried spring rolls, and bamboo shoot soup. However, depending on each
family’s conditions, people can also prepare vegetarian dishes as offerings.
The offerings also include a set of votive paper clothes and, especially, golden carps - the
“vehicle” for the gods to return to Heaven. People often prepare two or three alive carps and then
release them into a river or a lake after the worshipping ritual with the belief that the fish will carry the
gods to Heaven. Nowadays, live carps can also be replaced with paper ones, which will be burned
together with other paper offerings after the ritual.
The worshipping ceremony is conventionally held at any time from the noon of the 22nd day of the
12th lunar month to the noon of the next day because people believe the gods will leave for the Heaven
after midday and thus, if the ritual were conducted after that, they would be unable to receive offerings.
With the appropriate practice of the Land Genie and Kitchen Gods worship, people can help uphold
and pass down traditional cultural values in modem life.
(Adapted from https://en.vietnamplus.vn )
Statements True (T) False (F)
1. Land Genie and Kitchen Gods ride carps back to Heaven on
the 23rd day of the 12th lunar month.
2. Rituals and offerings are the same throughout the country.
3. Golden carps are the “vehicle” for the gods to return to
Heaven.
4. If the ritual were conducted after the noon of the 23rd day, the
gods would still be able to receive offerings.
5. People can help uphold and pass down traditional cultural
values in modem life.
Exercise 3. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions.
The practise of ancestor worship is relatively straightforward. Nearly every house, office, and
business in Viet Nam has a small altar used to commune with ancestors. Incense sticks are burned
frequently. Offerings are often fruit, sweets, and gifts. The latter items arc such as votive papers, such
as motorbikes, cars, houses, etC. After worshipping, people burn the paper gifts called votive papers so
that the spirits of the gifts can ascend to heaven for the ancestors to use.
In the past, the income from a plot of land was used to maintain the altar and arrange the rituals,
but this tradition has now faded away. However, the custom that the eldest son will arrange the
Giaoandethitienganh.info sưu tầm
ceremonial and inherit the family house upon the death of his parents is still generally observed.
Another traditional clement is placing wooden tablets on the altar for each of the ancestors over
recent generations. It is less rigorously observed today, and photographs often replace tablets. Some
pagodas house commemorative tablets for ancestors on behalf of regular worshippers.

Exercise 2. Read then decide whether the following sentences are True (T) or False (F).

Technology has attracted the attention of many people in the world especially the young
generation and this has affected their lifestyle. They use electronic devices such as phones, laptops,
iPods, tablets, computers and many others. Electronic devices are so addictive that people would rather
use them for enjoyment than their necessity. Due to this addictiveness, it has resulted in negative
effects on people’s life and their mental health.
Technology has both negative and positive impacts on people’s lives; it just depends on how the
person uses the electronic gadget. Technology has made it easier to access information which is very
helpful for businesses or even a student. But not all technology was made for positive purposes as due
to technology, there was a development of weapons which is a threat to the society.
We can say that addiction refers to a situation when you like a particular thing so much that you
lose control over your mind, and this is what is happening to today’s world especially the young
generation. They became so addicted to the technology gadgets that all they think about is that it has
control over their mind. They spend most of their time on electronic devices that they don’t even realise.

5. The young generation spend little time on electronic devices.
Exercise 3. Read the passage then answer the questions.

Students today are already comfortable with online platforms and online learning. This is why
these classes are becoming more widely used. They can be accessed anytime and anywhere as long as
there’s an Internet connection and a gadget to use. Online learning makes it easier for students to access
courses they can benefit from. However, students also have to deal with disadvantages that can affect
the quality of these classes.
First, online learning has more distractions. Students who take online courses are more prone to
distractions and procrastination in the same landscape. This is because these courses don’t have a
physical classroom that can help them focus on their studies. Moreover, other students cannot afford
Internet access 24/7, which means that online classes are not always convenient for students.
Second, online classes are easily disrupted. Lack of a stable Internet connection and good gadgets
can disrupt online classes. Without these two things, students cannot access their courses, which can
affect their grades and performance. Unlike traditional courses, these classes are dependent on factors
like the student’s and the teacher’s Internet connections, the gadgets being used, and the environment
where the classes are held. With so many factors affecting the classes' quality, many students would
say that traditional learning is better than online learning.
In conclusion, online learning has been around for a while now. With online education growing,
its advantages and disadvantages are worth considering. Online courses offer many benefits, such as
reduced costs and increased flexibility. But there are also some disadvantages to online learning that
need to be considered if you want to try them.

Exercise 9. Read the text and decide if the following statements are true (T) or false (F).
The COVID-19 pandemic has triggered new ways of learning. All around the world, educational
institutions are looking toward online learning platforms to continue with the process of educating
Giaoandethitienganh.info sưu tầm
students. As with most teaching methods, online learning also has its own set of positives and negatives.
Online learning offers teachers an efficient way to deliver lessons to students. It has a number of
tools such as videos, PDFs, podcasts. Another advantage of online education is that it allows students
to attend classes from any location of their choice. Moreover, online learning can reduce financial costs.
This is because online learning eliminates the cost points of student transportation, student meals, and
most importantly, accommodation.
For many students, one of the biggest challenges of online learning is the struggle with focusing
on the screen for long periods of time. With online learning, there is also a greater chance for students
to be easily distracted by social media or other sites. Another key challenge of online classes is internet
connectivity. Without a consistent internet connection for students or teachers, there can be a lack of
continuity in learning for the child.
In conclusion, online learning should be seen as a complement and extension of classical forms of
learning. Teachers need to make use of it wisely in order to achieve the best result.

If you want to experience a nomadic life, come and visit Mongolia where there are many nomadic
tribes that still maintain their traditional lifestyle. A nomad family lives in a circular tent called ger. It’s
a convenient and cosy home equipped with necessary furniture and even modem electrical appliances
like a TV or a fridge. In winter, Mongolian nomads usually take it down and move to a warmer place
for shelter. Because they raise free-range herds of cattle in large quantities, they are in the habit of
moving at least four times a year to find grasslands for their animals to eat. For daily meals, the main
food there is dairy products, so it is their practice to serve a fermented milk drink for breakfast. Having
a nomadic life requires people there to have good health to suffer from frigid air or scorching heat in
dramatic weather changes. They are good at riding horses and using eagles to hunt for food. There are
still many other unique nomadic customs and traditions for you to discover, so don’t hesitate to travel
to this marvelous land.
