Câu 23:

Read the following passage about Life in The Future 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.

In the near future, technology is expected to bring about significant changes to how we lead our lives. One of the most notable shifts will be the way we keep up with the rapid pace of technological advancements. With smart homes and autonomous vehicles, our daily routines will increasingly depend on sophisticated systems designed to make our lives easier. For example, smart assistants will look out for our needs, such as ordering groceries, adjusting room temperatures, or even scheduling doctor’s appointments.

Another major development will be in communication. Today, we already use video calls to stay in touch with friends and family across the globe, but the future promises even more immersive experiences. Virtual reality could allow us to hang out with people in virtual spaces, regardless of where they physically are. As a result, geographical barriers will become less relevant, creating a more connected and global society.

Healthcare is also likely to transform. Advances in artificial intelligence will enable doctors to look after patients more efficiently, diagnosing diseases earlier and prescribing personalized treatments. These changes may extend our lifespan and improve our quality of life. Additionally, breakthroughs in renewable energy will play a key role in sustaining our future. With green energy sources, such as solar and wind power, we can cut down on harmful emissions and move toward a more sustainable planet.

While these advancements sound exciting, they also bring challenges. As technology becomes more integrated into our lives, we must be careful to ensure privacy and security. We need to watch out for potential risks, like data breaches and the misuse of personal information. With thoughtful planning, however, the future holds great promise for improving the way we live, work, and interact with the world.

Which of the following is NOT mentioned as one of our needs that smart assistants will look out for in the future?

Read the following passage about the Restoration Story of Carnegie Hall 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.

Carnegie Hall, which is a famous concert hall in New York City, has again undergone a restoration. While this is not the first, it is certainly the most extensive in the building’s history. As a result of this new restoration, Carnegie Hall once again has the quality of sound that it had when it was first built.

Carnegie Hall owes its existence to Andrew Carnegie, the wealthy owner of a steel company in the late 1800s. (I)The hall was finished in 1891 and quickly gained a reputation as an excellent performing arts hall where accomplished musicians made a name for themselves. (II) Despite its reputation, the concert hall suffered from several detrimental renovations over the years. (III) During the Great Depression, when fewer people could afford to attend performances, the directors sold part of the building to commercial businesses. (IV) As a result, a coffee shop was opened in one corner of the building, for which the builders replaced the brick and terra cotta walls with windowpanes. A renovation in 1946 seriously damaged the acoustical quality of the hall when the makers of the film Carnegie Hall cut a gaping hole in the dome of the ceiling to allow for lights and air vents. The hole was later covered with short curtains and a fake ceiling, but the hall never sounded the same afterwards.

In 1960, the violinist Isaac Stem became involved in restoring the hall after a group of real estate developers unveiled plans to demolish Carnegie Hall and build a high-rise office building on the site. This threat spurred Stem to rally public support for Carnegie Hall and encourage the City of New York to buy the property. The movement was successful, and the concert hall is now owned by the city.

In the current restoration, builders tested each new material for its sound qualities, and they replaced the hole in the ceiling with a dome. The builders also restored the outer walls to their original appearance and closed the coffee shop. Carnegie has never sounded better, and its prospects for the future have never looked more promising

Where in paragraph 2 does the following sentence best fit?

"These renovations, for various reasons, ultimately compromised its renowned acoustics."

Carnegie Hall owes its existence to Andrew Carnegie, the wealthy owner of a steel company in the late 1800s. (I)The hall was finished in 1891 and quickly gained a reputation as an excellent performing arts hall where accomplished musicians made a name for themselves. (II) Despite its reputation, the concert hall suffered from several detrimental renovations over the years. (III) During the Great Depression, when fewer people could afford to attend performances, the directors sold part of the building to commercial businesses. (IV) As a result, a coffee shop was opened in one corner of the building, for which the builders replaced the brick and terra cotta walls with windowpanes. A renovation in 1946 seriously damaged the acoustical quality of the hall when the makers of the film Carnegie Hall cut a gaping hole in the dome of the ceiling to allow for lights and air vents. The hole was later covered with short curtains and a fake ceiling, but the hall never sounded the same afterwards.

In 1960, the violinist Isaac Stem became involved in restoring the hall after a group of real estate developers unveiled plans to demolish Carnegie Hall and build a high-rise office building on the site. This threat spurred Stem to rally public support for Carnegie Hall and encourage the City of New York to buy the property. The movement was successful, and the concert hall is now owned by the city.

In the current restoration, builders tested each new material for its sound qualities, and they replaced the hole in the ceiling with a dome. The builders also restored the outer walls to their original appearance and closed the coffee shop. Carnegie has never sounded better, and its prospects for the future have never looked more promising
