Starting any job is never easy, but what about starting your own business? That way you don't have to

had to take a job they didn't really like.
I loved baking and decided to sell my special cupcakes. But it wasn't easy. It was very stressful until a
friend called me one evening. She told me about this TV show where a group of people offered to help new
business owners. I was a bit scared. You have a few minutes to sell them on business idea and if they like it,
they put money into your business. I told them all about my idea and at first, they were not very happy with
it. But they were very interested and asked a lot of questions. At the last minute, one of the people decided to
give me the money! I was so happy and excited.
This was two years ago and my business, Amazing Cupcakes, is doing really well! We sell our cupcakes
to all the biggest supermarkets in Mexico. I have 45 people working for me, making our delicious cupcakes
all day and night. It is hard work, but I love it. I'm so happy that I did it. Anyone with a dream should try their
best to make it happen. The most enjoyable part of my job is that I can be creative, and I don't need to listen
to a difficult boss! And if I want a day off, that's easy too!

My name's Ariona and I live on the coast of Portugal where there are lots of beautiful sandy beaches and

fairly basic sculptures like the ones I make, all you really need is a safe place to build it, something to dig
with, (38) _______. I'd never actually thought of making sand sculptures before until my friends and I
discovered some fantastic ones that were along the shoe near where I live. (39) _______ that such beautiful
model buildings, incredible creatures, and some amazingly realistic foes of famous people were all made out
of sand. From that moment, I knew that this was something I just had to do even though I'd never considered
myself to be an artist or very creative. In fact, anyone can create a sand sculpture, but it's much harder than it
looks as I soon discovered. The first sand sculpture I ever mode was of a two-metre-long dolphin. (40)
_______. I tried everything to try and fix it, but it was hopeless. Soon the whole thing was a big pile of wet
sand on the beach. Some people sunbathing nearby seemed to think this was extremely funny, but that made
me want to keep trying even more. I wished I'd listened to an expert or YouTube who recommends digging
up-wet sand and use it to build the sand sculptures because it sticks together better.
A. I couldn't believe
B. and a large bucket
C. It's always great fun and it costs nothing.

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.
Plastic is a material that we use every day. The first plastics were made more than 100 years ago from parts of
plants. Plastics are now made from oil, coal and natural gas. We are using up these things so fast that the
Earth's supplies may run out. Because of this, scientists are investigating new ideas for making plastics from
plants such as sweet potato, bamboo and flax. Things made from plastic can be useful for people but bad for
the planet. Some plastics can last for a long time without wearing out, and can be difficult to get rid of when
they are not needed. They can stay in rubbish dumps for hundreds of years. Landfills can be smelly, ugly, and
harmful to our planet.
Recycling and reusing are a good way to solve the problem of unwanted plastic. Recycled waste materials can
be used again to make new products. Some kinds of plastics can be melted down and used to make new things
such as bags and bottles. Others can be made into fibers for clothing. Plastic bottles can be refilled many times,
rather than throwing them away once they are empty. Unwanted plastic goods such as CDs and toys can be
sold or given away to charity shops.
Câu 25: Which can be the best title for the passage?
A. Plastic: history and usefulness B. Plastic: recycling and reusing
C. Plastics: effects and solutions D. Plastic: benefits and drawbacks
Câu 26: Scientists are investigating new ideas for making plastic from such kinds of plants EXCEPT ...............

A. plastic can remain for a long time without decomposing.
B. plastic can be useful for people.
C. few people use products made of recycled waste materials.
D. people don't want to wear clothing made of plastic.

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 following questions.
Vietnamese lifestyle has changed significantly over the years. In the past, most people lived in rural areas,
and their daily routines were centered around farming and traditional crafts. Families were usually large, and
multiple generations lived under the same roof. People traveled by bicycle or on foot, and motorbikes were
considered a luxury. Entertainment was simple, consisting of folk songs, traditional games, and family
gatherings.
Today, Vietnam has modernized rapidly. Many people now live in urban areas. They work in offices and
factories, or run businesses. Houses are smaller, and families tend to be more independent. With the
development of technology, life has become more convenient. Cars and motorbikes are common, and people
rely on smartphones for communication and entertainment. The Internet allows access to a vast amount of
information, so learning and shopping become easier than ever.
Despite these changes, many Vietnamese traditions remain. Family values are still important, and people
continue to celebrate festivals such as Tet and the Mid-Autumn festival. Vietnamese cuisine, with its balance
of flavors and fresh ingredients, is still widely enjoyed. While life today is more fast-paced and technology-
driven, the essence of Vietnamese culture continues to be preserved.
Question 36. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT mentioned?
A. Vietnamese families in the past were usually extended families.
B. The Internet helps shopping and learning become more convenient today.
C. People commonly lived in luxurious houses in the past.
D. Vietnamese traditions are still valued today.
Question 37. The word "rapidly" in the second paragraph can be replaced by ______.
A. commonly B. quickly C. slowly D. gradually
Question 38. How did most people in Vietnam earn their living in the past?
A. By running large businesses B. By working in offices
C. Through farming and traditional crafts D. By using technology
Question 39. What important traditions in Vietnamese lifestyle still remain?

C. Families with multiple generations D. Farming as the main occupation
Question 40. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The importance of Vietnamese family traditions
B. The history of Vietnamese education
C. The modernization of Vietnamese urban areas

correct answer to each of the following questions from 19 to 25.
Many people underestimate the benefits of reading regularly. Reading each day, even for a short period,
can significantly improve vocabulary, concentration, and comprehension skills. It also stimulates the brain,
keeping it active and engaged, much like physical exercise benefits the body. In addition, reading helps reduce
stress and provides a healthy escape from daily pressures.
In today's fast-paced world, finding time to read can be challenging. However, setting aside just 15 to 20
minutes a day can make a big difference over time. Some people prefer to read in the morning to start the day
with a fresh mindset, while others find evening reading relaxing before bed. The key is consistency – making
reading a part of your daily routine, no matter when you choose to do it.
Another advantage of reading is that it enhances empathy. When we read fiction, especially stories that
explore characters' emotions and experiences, we begin to understand perspectives different from our own.
This emotional connection helps build social awareness and emotional intelligence, which are important in
both personal and professional life.
To build a successful reading habit, it's important to choose material that is both interesting and
appropriate for your level. Whether it's novels, articles, or biographies, enjoyable content keeps motivation
high. Digital tools like e-readers or audiobook apps can also help those with busy schedules or different
learning preferences.
And of course, there is also physical training. Astronauts in training need to earn scuba certification and
swim three laps in a pool while wearing a flight suit. They must also undergo military land and water survival
training, which is essential for emergencies. Finally, trainees must practise in simulations that allow them to
get used to high and low atmospheric pressures, which they may experience when working in space.

Question 38. It is not a good idea to ignore security warnings on your computer.
A. You don't need to ignore security warnings on your computer.
B. You should not ignore security warnings on your computer.
C. You might ignore security warnings on your computer.
D. You must ignore security warnings on your computer.

It is sometimes very difficult to decide which career to choose when you leave school. British students are
helped by careers teachers, who inform them about different careers, the qualifications needed, and try to help
them make up their minds. Mr. Hemmings, a careers teacher as well as a history teacher, talks about his
experience.
"I've been a careers teacher for around fifteen years and, on the whole, I've found it a rewarding experience.
Our students, who are 15 and 16 years old, have careers lessons once a week. My task consists of explaining
as accurately as possible the qualifications required for each job, as well as the type of work and personal skills
involved.
Advising teenagers can be rather difficult – some youngsters have no idea at all of what they want to do, or of
what the real world outside school really is. They come to me and say 'I don't like ordinary office jobs. I'd like
to do something that is exciting and pays well.' What can I say to him? That we're running out of exciting
jobs? But they usually end up facing reality and come down to the senses after a while.
Anyway, here in school, we only give them advice according to what we know about their favourite and
weakest subjects, pastimes and personality. But if you ask me, things are changing so quickly around here that
sometimes you just don't know what best to say. A few days ago, I asked a fifteen-year-old boy what job he
had in mind, and he replied 'I haven't got any plans. You see, Sir, I don't know what new jobs will replace
today's. What could I say to him?"
Question 33: What does Mr. Hemmings say about his job as a careers teacher?
A. It is a stressful job. B. It is an easy job.
C. It is a challenging experience. D. It is a rewarding experience.
Question 34: How often do British students have careers lessons?
A. Once a fortnight B. Twice a month C. Twice a week D. Once a week
Question 35: The word accurately in paragraph 2 is CLOSEST in meaning to _______.
A. frequently B. exactly C. usually D. incorrectly
Question 36: The word They in paragraph 3 refers to _______.

Question 37: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. Merits of British careers teachers and their students in career advice
B. Challenges faced by British careers teachers and their students in career advice
C. Rewards for British careers teachers and their students in career advice
D. Excitements among British careers teachers and their students in career advice
