Quang chu kì là sự phát triển của thực vật phụ thuộc vào tương quan độ dài ngày và đêm. Dựa vào phản ứng đối với quang chu kì, thực vật được chia làm ba nhóm: 

Cây ngày ngắn ra hoa trong điều kiện ngày ngắn với thời gian chiếu sáng thường dưới 10 giờ, thời gian tối liên tục trên 14 giờ (ví dụ: cây cà phê, cây lúa, ... ), cây ngày dài ra hoa trong điều kiện ngày dài với thời gian chiếu sáng thường trên 14 giờ hoặc thời gian tối liên tục dưới 10 giờ (ví dụ: cây lúa mì, cây thanh long, ... ) và cây trung tính ra hoa không phụ thuộc độ dài thời gian chiếu sáng (ví dụ: cây cà chua, cây hướng dương, ... ). Cây trung tính không phụ thuộc vào quang chu kì để ra hoa, có thể ra hoa ở bất kỳ thời điểm nào trong năm, miễn là cây được cung cấp đủ nước và chất dinh dưỡng.

Read the following passage about the future of energy and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions.

     [I] As the world grapples with the finite nature of fossil fuel reserves and the detrimental impact of climate change, the future of energy undeniably lies in renewable sources. [II] Scientists and engineers are making substantial advancements in the development of technologies that more efficiently harness solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal energy. [III] Although the transition to these renewable sources presents significant challenges, it is also regarded as a pivotal step towards establishing a sustainable and resilient energy system. [IV]

     One of the most promising advancements in renewable energy is the enhancement of solar panel efficiency. Progress in photovoltaic technology has led to the creation of panels that convert a higher proportion of sunlight into electricity. Likewise, wind turbines are becoming more and more efficient. They are capable of generating power even under low-wind conditions. These innovations are essential for making renewable energy more feasible and accessible to a broader population.

     However, the transition to renewable energy is fraught with obstacles. The intermittent nature of sources like solar and wind necessitates reliable storage solutions to ensure a consistent power supply. Although battery technology has seen significant improvements, further advancements are imperative to meet growing demand. Moreover, new infrastructure for distributing renewable energy requires expansion and upgrading to accommodate these new power sources.

     The economic impact of transitioning to renewable energy is another critical consideration. While the initial investment in renewable energy infrastructure can be substantial, the long-term benefits include reduced energy costs and job creation in the green energy sector. Governments and private enterprises are increasingly acknowledging the necessity of investing in renewable energy projects, which is crucial for fostering innovation and diminishing reliance on fossil fuels.

     Ultimately, the future of energy hinges on our capacity to innovate and adapt. By continuing to invest in research and development, improving infrastructure, and addressing economic and technical challenges, we can transition towards a more sustainable and environmentally friendly energy system.

Read the following passage 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 31 to 40.

Working on Your Workout

(I) Although appreciating a balanced diet and regular exercise, most people do not know how to exercise properly. Consequently, they usually rush through their workouts, or they make the same common workout mistakes. (II) Exercising the right way is important for people who are worried about their health and their appearance. (III) However, if someone is not working out properly, they will not see the results they want. Therefore, training experts have devised tips to teach people how to exercise correctly in order to achieve the greatest health benefits. (VI)

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 make sure your whole body stays fit. This will help make your workouts more interesting, and benefit your health and muscle development as well.

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.

In reality, no one is perfect. However, 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. Remember not to make these common workout mistakes, and always have fun while exercising!

Read the following passage about Wildlife Conservation in Africa 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 31 to 40.

Wildlife conservation in Africa is vital for preserving biodiversity and ensuring the survival of iconic species such as elephants, lions, and rhinos. [I] The continent is home to some of the world’s most diverse ecosystems, including savannahs, rainforests, and deserts. [II] Conservation efforts involve strategies like protecting habitats, combating poaching, and raising awareness about the importance of wildlife. [III] Despite challenges, success stories demonstrate the positive impact of these efforts. [IV]

One notable example comes from Kenya, where anti-poaching initiatives and community engagement have helped stabilize elephant populations in Amboseli National Park. Similarly, in South Africa, rhino conservation programs use advanced technologies like drones and GPS tracking to monitor and protect vulnerable animals. These efforts not only safeguard wildlife but also promote eco-tourism, which supports local economies.

However, wildlife conservation in Africa faces persistent threats. Habitat loss due to agricultural expansion and urbanization continues to endanger species. Climate change exacerbates these challenges, altering migration patterns and threatening ecosystems. Furthermore, poaching and the illegal wildlife trade remain significant concerns, driven by global demand for products such as ivory and rhino horn.

To overcome these challenges, conservationists emphasize the need for international collaboration and local community involvement. Initiatives like eco-tourism provide financial incentives for communities to protect wildlife. Governments, NGOs, and individuals must work together to ensure the survival of Africa’s unique species for future generations.
