Câu 32 - 36
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 32 to 36.
Culture is the lens with which we evaluate everything around us; we evaluate what is proper or
improper, normal or abnormal, through our culture. If we are immersed in a culture that is unlike our
own, we may experience culture shock and become disoriented when we come into contact with a
fundamentally different culture. People naturally use their own culture as the standard to judge other
cultures; however, passing judgment could reach a level where people begin to discriminate against
others whose “ways of being” are different than their own - essentially, we tend to fear that which
4
we do not understand.
Cultural diversity is important because our country, workplaces, and schools increasingly consist of
various cultural, racial, and ethnic groups. We can learn from one another, but first we must have a
level of understanding about each other in order to facilitate collaboration and cooperation. Learning
about other cultures helps us understand different perspectives within the world in which we live
and helps dispel negative stereotypes and personal biases about different groups.
In addition, cultural diversity helps us recognize and respect “ways of being” that are not necessarily
our own, so that as we interact with others, we can build bridges to trust, respect, and understanding
across cultures. Furthermore, this diversity makes our country a more interesting place to live, as
people from diverse cultures contribute language skills, new ways of thinking, new knowledge, and
different experiences.

Câu 44 - 50
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 44 to 50.
Environmentalists often fear that tourists will trample all over sensitive natural resource areas, but
tourism may bring the needed and only economic incentives to help drive conservation, said Bynum
Boley. Ecotourism and natural resource conservation already have a mutually beneficial relationship
that is ideal for creating a sustainable partnership.
"Ecotourism destinations benefit in the form of enhanced tourism competitiveness from the
protection of quality natural resources," he said. "Meanwhile, the conservation of these natural
resources is increasingly valued since these pristine natural resources are the foundation of the
ecotourism industry and the driver of all economic benefits associated with ecotourism."
Tourism is a $7.6 trillion global industry, provides 277 million jobs and is a primary income source
for 20 of the world's 48 least-developed countries. It also subsidizes environmental protection and
helps protect, conserve and value cultural resources that might otherwise be undervalued by the host
community, Boley said. In the newspaper, Boley and co-author Gary Green said that despite past
tension between the tourism industry and environmentalists, the two should team up as allies to fight
off increasing conversion of land away from its natural state. Ecotourists not only provide a boost to
the economy in such places, they can also motivate landowners into keeping the environment in its
natural state instead of converting it into something unsustainable. They could also influence the
public perception of conservation, Boley explained, which does not often favor environmental
protection.
“The public has become increasingly less prone to respond to environmental messages,” he said.
“Economic messages are needed in order to attract the public's interest.” Too often, Boley and
Green said, unique natural resource areas are converted into urban, suburban and agricultural
developments without considering their ecotourism potential. In addition to the lost ecotourism
revenue, there are a host of negative environmental consequences such as biodiversity loss, water
and food shortages and the land being unable to mitigate the effects of climate change. These areas
are not valued for their unique attributes or the valuable natural resources they provide, Green said,
“so we lose them.” Tourists have historically been seen as having a negative impact on the

7
environment. Critics complain that they violate fragile and threatened natural environments while
contributing to greenhouse gases from the increased number of flights to these exotic and often
remote locales. While these criticisms are justified, Boley and Green said responsible programs
promote education of ecological conservation and environmental sustainability, fostering a greater
understanding and appreciation of these exotic areas.
