The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), a special program of the United Nations, is

children. UNICEF was created in 1946 to provide relief to children in countries devastated by
World War II. After 1950 the fund directed its efforts toward general programs for the
improvement of children's welfare, particularly in less-developed countries and in various
emergency situations. The organization's broader mission was reflected in the name it adopted in
1953, the United Nations Children's Fund. UNICEF was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace in
1965. It is headquartered in New York City.
UNICEF has concentrated much of its effort in areas in which relatively small expenditures can
have a significant impact on the lives of the most disadvantaged children such as the prevention
and treatment of diseases. In keeping with this strategy, UNICEF supports immunization programs
for childhood diseases and programs to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS; it also provides funding
for health services, educational facilities, and other welfare services. Since 1996 UNICEF
programs have been guided by the Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989), which affirms the
right of all children to "the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health and to facilities
for the treatment of illness and rehabilitation of health". UNICEF's activities are financed by both
government and private contributions.

VII.Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each of the questions below.

Family life has been changing across some Southeast Asian countries over the past few decades. Many
years ago, most of teenagers lived with their families, spending several hours at school and the rest of
time at home enjoying family atmosphere. Besides their studying, adolescents could do some
housework like doing the dishes, cooking, taking care of younger children or supporting their family
business. These days, studying takes up such a lot of time that they cannot help much with household
chores and sometimes they even hardly have time to relax. This can lead to suffering worse health and
losing the bond with their family. In families with higher income, parents are often so busy with their
work that they send their children to private boarding schools, and the time these students share with
families is shortened more and more. In many cases, high-schoolers meet their siblings and parents at
weekends only. It’s believed that there are some advantages to live and study in academic places, but
other benefits that schools are unlikely to provide should be taken into consideration. For example,
these young learners can learn a lot from their parents about social skills and doing domestic chores. On
one hand, some people think that teenage students prefer to have privacy than to be controlled by adults,
which may be true. On the other hand, nothing can compare or replace the parents’ affection in terms of
nurturing their children’s souls and their behaviours. Changes often bring positive results but how
people consider what is important to maintain and preserve is worth thinking again.

A. The negative effect of living away from family.
B. Some changes in family life in Southeast Asian countries.
C. Teenagers love to live independently rather than rely on their parents.

 B. The fact that students cannot help with family work.
C. The fact that students have to spend most of their time studying.
D. The fact that students do too much housework.
Question 28. Long time ago young learners could help their parents with ___________.
A. family chores or parents’ business
B. family chores and earn money themselves
C. nothing because of their busy curricula
D. nothing because they were busy playing

B. Children can learn about social skills.
C. Children can learn how to do business.
