(2,0 điểm - 0,4 điểm/câu đúng)
Vietnam’s Green Summer Campaign, which gathers thousands of youths to do charity works around the
country in the summer, inspired a group of U.S. students to popularize the idea to the world.
A group of North Carolina and Duke University students together with local students recorded all the
activities and have created a website about Vietnam’s 12-year youth volunteer campaign to show to the
world.
“Although there are many volunteer activities for the youth in the U.S, none is at the national-level like
Vietnam’s Green Summer Campaign,” said the students.
On the 26th of June, a group of six students began shooting the activities of the Green Summer Campaign.
The filmmakers made a plan to produce a 20-minute film clip about the volunteer campaign.
“Through our Vietnamese schoolmates, we hear about Vietnam’s history, culture and the youth volunteer
campaign. We want to witness and popularize the campaign to other friends and youths with live video
clips,” said Jordan Kyle from Duke University.
The filmmakers also visited the East Bus Station in Binh Thanh district to record volunteers guiding
thousands of students arriving in Ho Chi Minh City from other provinces for their upcoming entrance
university exams. The youths helped students find places to stay and get around the city. “Unlike in
Vietnam, similar programs in the U.S are run by specialized organizations. We were really surprised to
learn that Vietnamese students established the program and ran it by themselves,” said the group. “I’m
honored to join the Green Summer Campaign and put on the volunteer’s uniform. I really love it.”, said
Carly from Duke University.

The culture of Vietnam is one of the oldest in the Southeast Asia region. Although Vietnam lies
geographically in Southeast Asia, long periods of Chinese domination and influence has resulted in the
emergence of many East Asian characteristics in Vietnamese culture, and generally Vietnam is said to be
a part of the East Asian cultural sphere, known widely as Chinese cultural sphere.
Despite considerable foreign influence, Vietnamese people have managed to retain many distinct
customs. While Chinese culture has the largest influence on traditional Vietnamese culture, there is also a
much smaller influence from the Cham and later Western cultures, most notably of France, Russia and
the United States.
In term of prehistory, most Vietnamese historians consider the ancient Dong Son Culture to be one of the
defining aspects of early Vietnamese civilization.
Vietnam’s population in 2006 was 84,402,966, with a population density of 253 people per km2. Most
people live in or near the densely populous Red River or Mekong deltas.
Due to the nation’s southward expansion throughout its history, along with the different climate and
environment met by the settlers as they moved further south, slightly different regional cultures began to
emerge, most notably between Northern and Southern Vietnam.
91. The culture of Vietnam______ .
A. is the youngest in Asia B. does not get any Asian characteristics
C. was influenced by that of China D. was greatly dominated by that of Western
92. Which culture has not affected the Vietnamese one?
A. Of the United States B. Of the United Kingdom C. Of Russia D. Of France
93. Vietnamese people ______ .
A. cannot keep their own culture in their daily life
B. have many diverse nation customs
C. highly appreciate the Western influence on their culture
D. failed to retain the native customs

C. Red River delta is densely populous.
D. Vietnamese people do not like living in the deltas.

The Internet is a computer-based global information system. The Internet is composed of many
interconnected computer networks. Each network may link tens, hundreds, or even thousands of
computers, enabling them to share information and processing power. The Internet has made it possible
for people all over the world to communicate with one another effectively and inexpensively. Unlike
traditional broadcasting media, such as radio and television, the Internet does not have a centralized
distribution system. Instead, an individual who has Internet access can communicate directly with anyone
else on the Internet, post information for general consumption, retrieve information, use distant
applications and services, or buy and sell products.
The Net has brought new opportunities to government, business, and education. Governments use the
Internet for internal communication, distribution of information, and automated tax processing. In
addition to offering goods and services online to customers, businesses use the Internet to interact with
other businesses. Many individuals use the Internet for communicating through electronic mail (e-mail),
retrieving news, researching information, shopping, paying bills, banking, listening to music, watching
movies, playing games, and even making telephone calls. Educational institutions use the Internet for
research and to deliver online courses and course material to students.

“The Amazon”. It was not a lucky ship. The first captain died in a few days after it was registered, and on
its first voyeur in 1862 it was badly damaged in a collision. When it was repaired in port, it caught fire. In

During the teenager years, many young people can at times be difficult to talk to. They often
seem to dislike being questioned. They may seem unwilling to talk about their work in school. This is a
normal development at this age, though it can be very hard to for parents to understand. It is part of
becoming independent, of teenagers trying to be adult while they are still growing up. Young people are
usually more willing to talk if they believe that questions are asked out of real interest and not because
people are trying to check up on them.
Parents should do their best to talk to their son or daughter about school work and future plan
but should not push them to talk if they don’t want to. Parents should also watch for the danger signs:
some young people in trying to be adult may experiment with drugs, alcohol or smoking. Parents need to
watch for any signs of unusual behavior which may be connected with these and get help if necessary.

A. parent’s handbook B. school timetable C. teenage magazine D. children’s book
95. What is the writer trying to do?
A. to be amusing B. to be argumentative C. to be helpful D. to be apologetic
96. Why do adults sometimes find teenagers difficult?
A. Because teenagers are quiet.
B. Because teenagers don’t want to talk to their parents.
C. Because teenagers think adults are not honest.
D. Because most teenagers hate adults.

with cement painted green in imitation of grass and a box of flowers.

expect, and will fail. Unrealistic parental expectations can cause great damage to the children. However,
if parents are not unrealistic about what they expect their children to do, but are hopeful in a sensible
way, the child may succeed in doing very well especially if the parents are very supportive of their
children.

musicians, they set too high a standard for Winston. They want their son to be as successful as they are,
and so they enter him in every piano competition held. They are very unhappy when he does not win.
