Read the following passage about the impact of social media on mental health 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] In recent years, social media platforms have become a central part of daily life, offering users countless ways to connect, share, and communicate. [II] While these platforms offer many advantages, experts have noted rising concerns about their effects on mental health, particularly among young people (Smith & Anderson, 2018). [III] Studies reveal that excessive social media use can contribute to feelings of anxiety, depression, and loneliness, despite its intention to promote connection and social interaction (Twenge & Campbell, 2019). [IV]

A primary reason for these mental health concerns is the tendency for social media users to compare themselves to others. Platforms like Instagram and Facebook often highlight idealized lifestyles, leading users to feel inadequate about their own lives. Additionally, the constant notifications and messages contribute to a "fear of missing out," or FOMO, which keeps individuals in a cycle of checking their phones, often reducing the quality of sleep and overall well-being.

There is also a growing body of research suggesting a link between social media use and decreased attention spans. When users frequently switch between apps and notifications, their ability to focus for extended periods may diminish (Rosen, 2019). This shift in attention can interfere with productivity, especially in academic and professional settings, where sustained focus is essential.

Addressing these challenges requires a multi-faceted approach. Some mental health professionals suggest limiting screen time and setting boundaries, such as "device-free" hours before bedtime. Others recommend engaging in offline activities, like reading or exercising, to reduce dependence on social media and build healthier habits. According to psychologists, such strategies can bu mental resilience and allow for more meaningful, balanced relationships (Robinson & Smith, 2020).

Read the following passage about the Science in Service of Humanity 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.

Science has come out of its shell in laboratories to become a powerful force for human advancement. Modern scientific endeavors increasingly focus on addressing real-world challenges affecting communities globally. From developing vaccines that save millions to creating technologies connecting people across continents, science serves humanity in countless ways. This shift represents a fundamental evolution in how we perceive scientific progress—not merely academic pursuit but a practical tool for improving lives and solving pressing problems.

[I] Medical breakthroughs exemplify how science directly benefits humanity. [II] For instance, gene therapy offers hope for those with inherited conditions, while artificial intelligence helps diagnose diseases earlier and more accurately. [III] These advancements didn't happen overnight; scientists had to burn the midnight oil for years before achieving success. [IV] Their perseverance demonstrates that when science targets humanitarian goals, results can transform society profoundly.

Environmental science has emerged as another crucial domain where laboratory work translates into human welfare. Climate scientists provide data informing policy decisions affecting billions. Conservation biologists develop strategies to protect biodiversity, ensuring future generations benefit from natural resources. Agricultural researchers create drought-resistant crops helping communities withstand changing climate conditions. Despite these contributions, environmental science faces challenges including funding limitations, political resistance, and urgency of addressing accelerating climate change. Nevertheless, dedicated scientists continue their work, recognizing environmental health directly impacts human wellbeing.

The future of science in service of humanity looks increasingly collaborative and inclusive. Modern approaches incorporate diverse perspectives, including indigenous knowledge and community participation. Citizen science projects engage non-professionals in data collection, democratizing the scientific process. Open-access publishing makes research findings available to anyone with internet access, not just wealthy institutions. These developments suggest science's greatest potential lies in becoming more accessible and responsive to human needs. As we face complex global challenges, from pandemics to climate change, science serving humanity offers our best hope for a sustainable future.

Which of the following best summarises the passage?

Read the following passage about the cultural diversity 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. 

    [I] In today's globalized world, cultural diversity has become a fundamental aspect of many societies. [II] Many countries are experiencing increasing levels of migration. [III] With the rise of immigration and the blending of traditions, people from various cultural backgrounds are now living side by side in cities across the globe. [IV]

    One of the key advantages of cultural diversity is the richness that it adds to a society. Different cultures introduce unique viewpoints, foods, languages, and traditions, which help people broaden their understanding of the world. In schools and workplaces, cultural diversity fosters creativity and innovation, as individuals from different backgrounds approach problems in innovative ways. However, there are also challenges associated with living in culturally diverse communities. Misunderstandings and communication barriers can arise when people are unfamiliar with each other's customs and values. To address these issues, societies must encourage cultural sensitivity and create opportunities for cross-cultural exchange.

    Governments and institutions around the world are beginning to implement policies that promote inclusion and respect for cultural differences. By celebrating diversity through events, education, and media representation, communities can create environments where people feel valued regardless of their background. Ultimately, embracing cultural diversity helps to build more peaceful and harmonious societies.

Where in paragraph 1 does the following sentence best fit?

 “This increasing diversity brings about both challenges and opportunities.”

Một công ty đa quốc gia thực hiện chế độ nghỉ Tết Nguyên Đán dành cán bộ công nhân viên Việt Nam theo nguyên tắc như sau:

Read the following passage about online dating 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 23 to 30.

Psychologists have found many advantages and disadvantages to online dating. Among the many criticisms aimed at online dating, the most severe concern is its effects on people's self-esteem and mental health.

Swipe left or right is the main feature of popular dating apps, where users quickly look at profiles. However, this system is criticized for being superficial. A study showed that users often feel less satisfied with their appearance. Jessica Strübel found that after a while, users begin to feel less like unique, special individuals and more like they're disposable. This feeling leads to users becoming increasingly sensitive about their looks and bodies, heightening self-consciousness. Dating apps also added to the idea that there's always something better around the corner, which further pressures users into trying to appear more attractive.

Dating apps not only harm self-esteem but also alter perceptions of relationships. By accelerating the dating process, these apps encourage poor social behavior. For instance, it's not unusual for people to ignore "likes" and messages or to lose interest and cut off communication. This behavior would have been considered extremely rude in the past. But with online dating, it is a common reality.

Furthermore, thirty-five percent of users actually reported feeling pessimistic about dating. Only twenty-eight percent of surveyed users reported feeling hopeful after using a dating site or app.

According to paragraph 2, all of the following are problems with dating apps EXCEPT _____.
