The environment is the natural world surrounds us, consisting of the air we breathe, the water we
drink, the land we live on, and the ecosystems support life. It is essential(cần thiết) for the well-being of all
living beings on Earth.
One of the issues concerning the environment is climate change. Human activities, such as burning
fossil fuels and deforestation, contribute to the release(thải ra) of greenhouse gases, leading to global
warming and the change of ecosystems. Climate change has serious consequences (hậu quả), including
extreme weather events, sea-level rise, and the loss of biodiversity. Another important aspect of the
environment is pollution. Industrial activities, and the use of harmful chemicals contaminate (làm ô
nhiễm,làm bẩn) the air, water, and soil. Pollution has negative effects on human health, wildlife, and the
overall balance of ecosystems.
 Preserving and protecting the environment requires collective actions. Conservation efforts, such as
sustainable (bền vững) resource management and afforestation, play a crucial (quan trọng=important/vital/
esential) role (đóng 1 vai trò quan trọng) in reducing environmental damage. Besides, individual actions,
such as reducing waste, and adopting eco-friendly practices, contribute to a more sustainable future. It is
essential to raise awareness and educate the public about environmental issues (=problems). By this way,
individuals can make informed (có tính cân nhắc) choices and take steps to minimize (làm giảm thiểu) their
ecological footprint(dấu chân).

Read the passage and circle the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the following
questions.
Many children have music classes when they attend school. So how exactly can children take
advantage from studying music{40}?
According to some studies, musical training{37} can develop the part of children's brain that is
involved with languages, so they can understand their own language better{36-A}. It could also help with
learning a second language. What’s more, children who have studied music also seem to score better in other
areas. For example, reading music includes learning about quarter and half notes, which are basically
fractions, like in mathematics. {36.D}And when children are learning about rhythm, they are counting the
notes in a piece of music.{39}So these school subjects seem to be connected.
Music can also let children explore new ideas, think in a creative way and gain confidence{38}. If
they are learning the guitar, it can be really exciting when they can invent their own pieces of music.
Moreover, when they do that, they are also practicing their listening skills{36.B} because they have to listen
carefully to the music they are making. This is particularly important when they perform with other people.

knowledge will open up a great career path for them in the future.{36.C}
