Humans have extracted minerals, crystals, and gems from the womb of the Earth. People have taken
and used whatever natural wealth there is to take and are now facing the grave consequences of nature’s
pushback. We must realise that the Earth’s resources are not limitless. They are depleting fast, and this
threatens our existence on the planet that we call home.

to avoid you.
(Adapted from English Exercise Book 12 by Luu Hoang Tri)

Read the following passages and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best
answer to each of the questions.
But we still have to save energy so we wash our clothes ourselves, without a washing machine, and
we cook on a wood stove which also heats the water in which we wash ourselves. To save wood, we and
our neighbours cook for each other. It’s great to think about others and not just yourself. Our biggest
challenge is entertainment. I didn’t use to watch television a lot but my father missed football games at
first and my mother couldn’t watch fashion shows. My brothers and I can’t play computer games or listen
to their iPods all the time – we need new ideas to amuse ourselves.
(Adapted from English Workbook 12)
Question 1. In the paragraph, which of the following is NOT mentioned as one of the ways to save energy?
A. Stopping entertaining B. Cooking for neighbours
C. Using wood for fuel D. Washing clothes by hand

Humans have caused great damage to the planet, as wild habitats have been taken over, forcing
animals and plants into smaller and smaller areas, until some of them have become extinct. Animals may
also become extinct through direct destruction. This includes the hunting and capturing of animals. The
extinction of at least 500 species of animals has been caused by humans, most of them in the 20th century.
Today there are about 5,000 endangered animals and at least one species dies out every year. The main
threats to species then can be cited as poaching, habitat loss and climate change.
(Adapted from English Workbook 12)
Question 2. In the paragraph, which of the following is NOT mentioned as one of the threats to animals?
A. habitat loss B. hunting C. extinct plants D. climate change

Statistics showed that in 1997, only 20 per cent of Vietnam’s population lived in urban areas and real
estate deals were conducted largely without bank loans. However, things have changed today when the
percentage of urban residents has risen to 34 per cent of the population and bank loans have become more
popular for real estate transactions. With an anticipated population of 51 per cent in 2030 with the trend
of smaller households, housing demand in urban areas would keep rising, especially the demand for social
housing projects.
(Adapted from English Workbook 12)
Question 3. In the paragraph, which of the following is NOT mentioned as one of the trends in Vietnam?
A. More people living in cities B. Forming smaller families
C. Purchasing houses without debt D. Higher social housing demand

Coral reefs are considered the ‘rainforests of the sea’ because they are home to fish and other living
things and can provide them with food and shelter to reproduce and raise their young. Coral reefs bring a
lot of benefits to human beings. They offer chances for recreation, serve as a barrier against erosion and
storm damage and support local economies. They also provide food sources and new treatments for
diseases as well. Fishing, diving and other water activities on and near coral reefs can generate huge
profits for local businesses around the world.
(Adapted from Bright)

Old holiday customs are an important connection to our present and past culture, so we should not
forget them. A culture is built upon a lot of values, beliefs, and practices. The customs, especially those
shown in holidays and celebrations, are often the easiest parts to see in a culture. They form parts of our
identities and help to distinguish one community from another. Therefore, practising these customs is an
easy way to let others know who we are.
(Adapted from Explore New World)

Urbanisation has many adverse effects on the structure of society as gigantic concentrations of people
compete for limited resources. Rapid housing construction leads to overcrowding and slums, which
experience major problems such as poverty, poor sanitation, unemployment and high crime rates.
Additionally, strains on important natural resources, such as water supply, lead to higher prices and
general environmental sustainability problems.
(Adapted from English Workbook 12)

A stereotype is a fixed belief about a group or individual. These stereotypes are not based on facts
but on opinions, and they still exist in our society in different ways. Among these are gender stereotypes

meet new people, make new connections, and understand the world better. This helps you become a global
citizen. When we travel, we can visit museums, art galleries, and festivals, as well as restaurants, cafes,

In November 2009, they got an apartment together in Palo Alto, California and started work on
Pinterest. And it seemed that a lot of people liked their idea. When Pinterest started in March 2010, it
grew quickly and had 10 million users after the first year. This was an amazing number compared with
Twitter and Facebook: Twitter took two years to reach 10 million users and Facebook took over five
years. Just a year after starting, Pinterest was worth $200 million and had over 421 million page views.
Silberman's ordinary interest as a boy certainly became an extraordinary business.

Ecological balance is the stability of each species' population within an environment. However, this
state can be upset by the introduction of new species, the sudden extinction of animals, natural disasters
or man-made problems. Throughout history, there has been a variety of environmental issues. Some of
the most serious ones are the activities of preparing for and fighting wars, which can cause serious
environmental damage. During the Vietnam War, for instance, dense forests covering large green areas
were carpet bombed, resulting in the habitat of numerous species being destroyed.
(Adapted from iLearn Smart World)
Question 6. In the paragraph, which of the following is NOT mentioned as one of the threats to ecological
balance?
A. natural disasters B. human activities C. dense forests D. the extinction of species

In order for robots to play football, robotics companies have had to develop special technologies. A
robot can't just run onto the field and start kicking the ball. So each robot is fitted with a webcam which
is connected to a computer inside the robot. The robot is able to see where the other players are, where
the goal is and, most importantly, where the ball is. They are programmed to make their own decisions
and during the match, the robots' creators are not allowed to tell them what to do. The robots are, however,
able to communicate with other members of their team, via a wireless network.
(Adapted from Solutions)
Question 7. In the paragraph, which of the following is NOT mentioned as one of the abilities of robots
which play football?
A. Seeing others and the ball B. Running and kicking the ball

It is fitting that we begin with the story of the bald eagle, the American symbol. By 1963, its
population had dropped to fewer than 1.000. Hunting was certainly a major factor in this decline, as was
the destruction of habitat. But the biggest factor was DDT – a chemical widely used in insect sprays
– which had a damaging effect on the eagles' eggs. The 1972 ban on DDT was the single most important
factor in the revival of the bald eagle.
(Adapted from English Workbook 12)
Question 8. In the paragraph, which of the following is NOT mentioned as one of the factors in the decline
in the bald eagle population?
A. Habitat being destroyed B. Eagles being killed
C. Eagles’ food being cleared D. Eagles’ eggs affected by DDT

Tram Chim – a national park in Dong Thap Province, Vietnam – was established in 1999 to preserve
the valuable submerged inland ecosystem. It is home to many fish and plant species and a frequent
destination for birds such as red-crowned cranes and herons. Unfortunately, human activities around the
park are threatening it. More and more shrimp ponds are being constructed. While bringing money to
farmers, they prevent fertile floodwater of the Mekong River from entering the park.
(Adapted from Explore New World)
Question 9. In the paragraph, which of the following is NOT mentioned about Tram Chim?
A. It was set up to preserve an ecosystem. B. It provides habitats to many species.
C. It is harmed by human activities. D. It maintains ecological balance.

Local food is often tastier because it is fresher. Goods that are imported from abroad must be flown
or shipped in from far away, so they naturally lose some of their freshness during the journey. Food safety
is another reason why people are choosing local products. Today’s laws regarding foods vary from country
to country. This causes confusion and makes it difficult to detect if any harmful pesticides were used.
Buying local foods can also have beneficial impacts on the environment. By supporting local growers,
consumers can maintain green space and farmland in their communities.
(Adapted from English Workbook 12)
Question 10. In the paragraph, which of the following is NOT mentioned as one of the reasons to choose
local food?
A. Safety B. Freshness C. No pesticides D. Environmental benefits
