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.
In the UK, comprising England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, jokes and tricks can be
played until noon on 1 April. After mid-day it's considered bad luck to play a trick. Anyone who forgets
this and tries a joke in the afternoon becomes an 'April Fool' themselves.
So, what kind of jokes do people play? Well, a simple example would be telling your friend that their
shoelaces are undone. Then, when they bend down to do them up, you shout, 'April Fool!', and they realise
their shoelaces are fine.
Maybe it's not your kind of humour, but watch out, there's always someone who will find it funny! In
Ireland, a popular prank is to send someone on a 'fool's errand'. The victim is sent to deliver a letter,
supposedly asking for help. When the person receives the letter, they open it, read it and tell the poor
messenger that they will have to take the letter to another person. This continues and the victim ends up
taking the message to several different people until someone feels sorry for them and shows them what the
letter says: 'Send the fool to someone else.'
In France, Belgium, the Netherlands (or Holland), Italy and French-speaking areas of Canada and
Switzerland, the 1 April tradition is known as the “April Fish”. A common joke is to try to stick a paper
fish onto a victim's back without being noticed.
Question 23. What does “stick” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. attach B. move C. establish D. cut

Read the following passage about wildlife conservation 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.
[I] Wildlife conservation refers to the efforts made to protect and preserve wild animal species and their
habitats. [II] It is crucial for maintaining biodiversity, which plays a vital role in ecosystem stability and
health (Smith & Jones, 2018). [III] Unfortunately, many species are threatened due to habitat destruction,
poaching, and climate change, making conservation efforts more urgent than ever. [IV]
One of the primary reasons for wildlife conservation is the preservation of biodiversity. A diverse range of
species contributes to ecosystem services, such as pollination, water purification, and climate regulation.
The loss of a single species can disrupt these services and lead to ecological imbalances. For instance, the
decline of pollinators like bees has serious implications for food production and agriculture (Global
Biodiversity Outlook, 2020).
Moreover, wildlife conservation has significant economic benefits. Many communities depend on
ecotourism, which relies on healthy wildlife populations and intact ecosystems. According to a study by the
World Wildlife Fund (WWF), ecotourism can generate billions of dollars in revenue, providing jobs and
supporting local economies (WWF, 2021). Protecting wildlife not only safeguards natural resources but
also creates sustainable livelihoods for local populations.
However, effective wildlife conservation requires a collaborative approach. Governments, non-
governmental organizations, and local communities must work together to implement policies and
strategies that promote conservation efforts . Community-based conservation initiatives, where local
people actively participate in protecting their natural resources, have shown promising results. These
initiatives empower communities and ensure that conservation efforts are tailored to local needs and
contexts (Bennett & Dearden, 2014).
(Adapted from Wildlife Conservation and Its Importance by Smith, Jones, and others)

B. The economic benefits of conservation are negligible compared to its ecological impact.
C. Wildlife conservation is primarily a global issue that does not affect local communities.
D. Habitat destruction has little impact on wildlife populations.
Question 33. Which of the following best summarizes the passage?
A. The primary focus of wildlife conservation is on endangered species and their immediate habitats.
B. Wildlife conservation is essential for protecting species and habitats, maintaining biodiversity, and
providing economic benefits through ecotourism, requiring collaborative efforts for effectiveness.
C. Wildlife conservation is not necessary as most species are thriving in their environments.
D. Ecotourism is the only reason for wildlife conservation efforts globally.
Question 34. According to paragraph 2, which of the following is NOT a reason for wildlife conservation?
A. To promote industrial development B. To maintain biodiversity
C. To ensure food production D. To support ecosystem stability
Question 35. Where in paragraph I does the following sentence best fit?
Conservation measures are essential for the survival of many endangered species.
A. [II] B. [I] C. [III] D. [IV]

A. One of the primary reasons for wildlife conservation is the preservation of biodiversity
B. Wildlife conservation is solely focused on endangered species.
C. Ecotourism has no connection to wildlife conservation efforts.
D. Only governments are responsible for wildlife conservation.
Question 38. Which of the following best summarizes paragraph 3?
A. Ecotourism negatively affects local economies.
B. Wildlife conservation is not economically beneficial.
C. Protecting wildlife can create economic opportunities for local communities.
D. Wildlife conservation primarily benefits large corporations.

Read the following passage about Transformation of Ho Chi Minh City and mark the letter A, B, C or D
on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questionsfrom 23 to 30.
Transformation of Ho Chi Minh City
Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam’s largest metropolis, has undergone remarkable changes in recent years.
Once known primarily for its historical landmarks, the city is now a bustling hub of economic activity and
cultural diversity. With a population exceeding 9 million, Ho Chi Minh City is rapidly expanding,
attracting both local and foreign investments.
However, this growth brings with it various challenges. Urbanization has led to increased traffic
congestion, pollution, and pressure on public services. According to city officials, the number of vehicles
on the roads has doubled in the past five years, leading to significant traffic jams during peak hours.
Moreover, rapid construction has sometimes come at the cost of green spaces, prompting concerns about
the environment and public health.
To address these issues, the local government is implementing innovative urban planning strategies.
Projects aimed at developing sustainable public transportation, such as metro lines and bus rapid transit
systems, are underway to alleviate congestion. For instance, the first metro line is expected to be
operational by 2025, which will help reduce travel times and improve air quality.
Technology is also playing a crucial role in this transformation. Smart city initiatives are being
introduced to enhance public services and improve residents' quality of life. These include smart traffic
management systems that use data analytics to optimize traffic flow and reduce delays. Furthermore,
applications that provide real-time information about public transportation are gaining popularity among
residents.
Community engagement is essential in ensuring the success of these urban initiatives. Local
organizations and residents are increasingly involved in discussions about urban development, helping to
create inclusive environments. By prioritizing sustainable practices and community participation, Ho Chi
Minh City aims to become a livable city for all its inhabitants.

Read the following passage about the Urbanization in Vietnam 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.
Urbanization in Vietnam Amidst Global Trends
[I] Urbanization is a significant trend in Vietnam, reflecting broader global patterns. [II] With over
38% of Vietnam's population now living in urban areas, projections indicate this figure could rise to 50%
by 2030. [III] Various factors contribute to this urban migration, leading to both opportunities and
challenges. [IV]
Push factors drive people away from rural areas. Many rural residents face limited job prospects
due to a lack of industries nearby. Additionally, agricultural dependence makes them vulnerable to crop
failures caused by climate change. In contrast, urban areas offer more employment opportunities, better
living standards, and access to services and entertainment, making them attractive destinations for rural
migrants.
The rapid urbanization process brings significant impacts on both the environment and urban
residents. Deforestation is a major concern as cities expand, often leading to the loss of green spaces and
deteriorating air quality. As urban populations increase, infrastructure struggles to keep pace, resulting in
housing shortages and rising living costs. Many low-income migrants find themselves in informal
settlements with inadequate living conditions, impacting their overall quality of life.
Understanding rural migration in Vietnam is essential to address these challenges. By
implementing effective urban planning and social policies, the government can ensure sustainable urban
development that enhances the quality of life for all citizens while minimizing environmental damage.
