Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 29 to 33.

In developing countries, people are sometimes unaware of the importance of education, and there is
economic pressure from those parents who prioritize their children's, making money in the short term over
any long-term benefits of education. Recent studies on child labor and, poverty have suggested that when
poor families reach a certain economic threshold where families are able to provide for their basic needs,
parents return their children to school.
This has been found to be true, once the threshold has been breached, even if the potential economic
value of the children's work has increased since their return to school. Other problems are that teachers are
often paid less than other professions; a lack of good universities and a low acceptance rate for good
universities are evident in countries with a relatively high population density.
India has launched EDUSAT, an education satellite that can reach remote parts of the country at a
greatly reduced cost. There is also ail initiative supported by several major corporations to develop a $100
laptop. The laptops have been available since 2007. The laptops, sold at cost, will enable developing
countries to give their children a digital education. In Africa, an "e-school program" has been launched to
provide all 600,000 primary and high schools with computer equipment, learning materials and internet
access within 10 years. Volunteer groups are working to give more individuals opportunity to receive
education in developing countries through such programs as the Perpetual Education Fund. An
International Development Agency project started with the support of American President Bill Clinton uses
the Internet to allow co-operation by individuals on issues of social development.
Question 29: In developing countries, ________.
A. people all know that education is very important all the time
B. all parents are rich enough to send their children to school
C. children have rights to get high schooling
D. children have to work instead of going to school
Question 30: According to recent studies, when parents are able to overcome their financial difficulty,
________.
A. they send their children back to school B. they still make their children continue working
C. they have their children work even harder D. they themselves continue their schooling
Question 31: In populous countries, ________.
A. teaching is the highest-paid career B. there are a lot of good universities
C. there is a lack of good universities D. no other careers are better paid than teaching
Question 32: The third paragraph is about ________.
A. an Indian education satellite
B. the projects to computerize education in developing countries
C. the computerization of African education
D. President Bill Clinton who bought a lot of computers
Question 33: How many projects are presented in the third paragraph?

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 34 to 40.
Do you feel like your teenager is spending most of the day glued to a phone screen? You're not too
far off. A new survey from the Pew Research Center reveals the surprising ways that technology intersects
with teen friendships – and the results show that 57 percent of teens have made at least one new friend
online. Even more surprisingly, only 20 percent of those digital friends ever meet in person. While teens
do connect with their friends face-to-face outside of school, they spend 55 percent of their day texting with
friends, and only 25 percent of teens are spending actual time with their friends on a daily basis (outside of
Trang 4/4
school hallways). These new forms of communication are key in maintaining friendships day-to-day – 27
percent of teens instant message their friends every day, 23 percent connect through social media every
day, and 7 percent even video chat daily. Text messaging remains the main form of communication –
almost half of survey respondents say it's their chosen method of communication with their closest friend.
While girls are more likely to text with their close friends, boys are meeting new friends (and
maintaining friendships) in the gaming world – 89 percent play with friends they know, and 54 percent
play with online-only friends. Whether they are close with their teammates or not, online garners say that
playing makes them feel "more connected" to friends they know, or garners they've never met.
When making new friends, social media has also become a major part of the teenage identity – 62
percent of teens are quick to share their social media usernames when connecting with a new friend
(although 80 percent still consider their phone number the best method of contact). Despite the negative
consequences-21 percent of teenage users feel worse about their lives because of posts they see on social
media – teens also have found support and connection through various platforms.
In fact, 68 percent of teens received support during a challenging time in their lives via social
media platforms. Just as technology has become a gateway for new friendships, or a channel to stay
connected with current friends, it can also make a friendship breakup more public. The study reveals that
girls are more likely to block or unfriend former allies, and 68 percent of all teenage users report
experiencing "drama among their friends on social media."
