The popular writer J K Rowling has agreed to end her part in the destruction of the world’s
forests by having her books printed on paper which is environmentally friendly. The multi-
millionaire author, (6)______ novels about a teenage wizard have consumed 6.5 million trees so
far; is one of (7)______ high-profile authors who have pledged their support for the environment by
stipulating that only recycled paper should be used for their books. Techniques pioneered in
Canadian mean that, for the first time, paper made from such materials as office waste paper can be
used to make books. The Canadian edition of Rowling’s last book was printed without chopping
down a single tree, saving an estimated 40,000 of them.
In the past, it was difficult to print books on recycled paper because the paper was not strong
enough to (8)______ a lifetime’s reading. Technological advances mean that paper which is
manufactured from waste materials is now just as durable as paper made from virgin fiber in terms
of quality and strength.
(9)______ the high cost of developing recycled paper that has the required strength and

publishers are likely to compensate for the higher paper cost by using cheaper book covers, as
happened in Canadian.

BOOKS BEFORE SCHOOL?
Many parents believe that they should begin to teach their children to read when they are
scarcely more than toddlers. This is fine if the child shows a real interest but forcing a child could be
counter-productive if she/he isn't ready. Wise parents will have a (11)______ attitude and take the
lead from their child. What they should provide is a selection of stimulating toys, books and other
activities. Nowadays there is plenty of good material available for young children, and of course,
seeing plenty of books in use about the house will also encourage them to read.
Of course, books are no longer the only source of stories and information. There is also a huge
range of videos, which can reinforce and extend the pleasure a child finds in a book and are
(12)______ valuable in helping to increase vocabulary and concentration. Television gets a bad
review as far as children are concerned, mainly because (13)______ spend too much time watching
programs not intended for their age group. Too many television programs induce an incurious,
uncritical attitude (14)______ is going to make learning much more difficult. (15)______,
discriminating viewing of programs designed for young children can be useful. Just as adults enjoy
reading a book after seeing it serialized on television, so children will pounce on books which extend
their favorite television characters, and videos can add a new dimension to a story known from a
book.

ANTISOCIAL BEHAVIOUR
When we think of antisocial behaviour, we usually think about people (26)______act in a
destructive and aggressive manner. Antisocial acts, such as intimidating behaviour, vandalism of
public spaces and generally showing a disregard for public safety, can negatively impact on the
quality of life or other people.

It is this age group, in fact, that often comes under a lot of scrutiny, particularly from the media.
Young people are constantly in the (28)______ for defacing public property with graffiti or for

about antisocial behaviour actually behaved in much the same way during their own adolescence. In
fact, it is not at all unusual to go through a short period of antisocial behaviour, (30)______ most

The “birth” of a word?
Language is constantly developing in response to the changing world around us, (31)______
when Larry Page and Sergey Brin hit upon the idea of calling their fledgling company ‘Google’, they
could not have imagined they were also creating a new entry for the dictionary. ‘Google’ is a play on
the word ‘googol’, in itself a relatively young word. Coined by Milton Sirotta in the mid-twentieth
century, googol (32)______ to the number one followed by 100 zeros. The company chose the term
as its trademark to highlight its aim to organise information on the Internet.
The success of Page and Brin’s search engine was so great that their form of the word, ‘google’,
began to be used in a variety of ways. Now it has followed its (33)______ into the dictionary, and
the entries for it seem to be expanding fairly rapidly. Webster’s New Millenium Dictionary gives two
definitions of google as a transitive verb. Wiktionary goes a step further, including not only an entry
for google as an intransitive verb, but also two definitions of google as a transitive verb, along with
an impressive list of derived terms such as ‘googledork’ and ‘googlicious’. ‘Google’, the company,
has taken exception in (34)______ cases to what it calls ‘inappropriate usage of its trademark’, but
can it really hope to curb the tide? The words are already listed, and the fair amount of ‘googling’
(35)______ went into searching this article proves the point!

considered the "safest place in the world," with no confirmed cases at all.
The region had a close brush with Covid-19 when (36)______ hit the final cruise ships of the
season, but the virus didn't reach its frozen shores. And, because it's currently descending into

We need to attend to the tree loss because of the following tree benefits. Firstly, trees provide
shade for homes, office buildings, parks and roadways, cooling surface temperatures. They also take
in and evaporate water, (46)______ cools the air around them. Secondly, trees absorb carbon and
remove pollutants from the atmosphere. Trees also reduce energy costs by $4 billion a year,
according to Nowak's study. "The shading of those trees on buildings (47) ______ your air

air conditioning more, and you're burning more fuel from the power plants, so the pollution and
emissions go up." (48)______, trees act as water filters, taking in dirty surface water and absorbing

and are capable of benefiting from their mistakes. They don't mind being corrected by their teacher
and indeed often ask to be corrected. Others, (56)______ dislike making mistakes. They try to avoid

language suggests that the integration of facial expression and body gesture is a mandatory process

What is happiness
How happy were you yesterday? This is a question that happiness researchers ask. And they have
discovered that happiness does not necessarily come with more wealth or possessions. In the West
there has been an improvement in our (71)______ of living, but there is evidence that being richer
doesn't make us happier. Firstly, we soon get used to pleasure, so a new car or a holiday only gives a
short term increase in happiness. Secondly, we compare our lives with other people's, (72)______

According to psychologists, the happiest people have supportive social relationships. Friendship
is more important than earnings, and even (73)______ our immune system. Love and marriage also
make people happier, although strangely having children doesn't increase our sense of well-being!
Having worthwhile goals and doing meaningful work contributes to life satisfaction. (74)______ if

your job can affect you for years, even after you get a new one. (75)______ areas which are

Study habits
We all have heard that good study habits involve sitting somewhere quiet, sticking to a schedule
and setting yourself targets. (81)______, such habits don't work for everyone and cognitive
scientists have come up with some new findings. In fact, the brain makes subtle associations
between what is studying and the background sensations it has at the time. Restricting study to one
place may therefore have (82)______ effects because when the context is varied, the information
being studied is enriched and forgetting is slowed down. In effect, the information is given more
support from the multiple associations. Evidence also shows that varying the type of material
studied in a single sitting leaves a deeper impression on the brain than does concentrating on
(83)______ skill at a time. Musicians have known this for years, as have athletes (84)______
routinely incorporate strength, speed and skill drills into their workout. These ideas seem to work
when applied to any subject so it seems time for this (85)______ to studying to be taken more

Evaporation and recondensation of water entail an important step in purification called
distillation. During evaporation, water molecules rise from the surface of a solution, but the salts
and other minerals that had been dissolved in it crystallize and precipitate from the solution,
forming sediment. As water is heated, its molecules acquire sufficient energy to break the weak pull
between them and rise in the form of vapor. As the vapor temperature falls, the attractive force
between molecules grows to hold the molecules together, resulting in condensation. When water
vapor recondenses, it consists only of water. Pure water used in chemical laboratories is obtained
by this process. Water from the ocean and other sources is perpetually evaporated, purified, and
eventually recondensed in the atmosphere.
124
ÔN THI TN THPT 2023 – PHIÊN BẢN NƯỚC RÚT
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Water can be purified by distillation or other methods. The hydrological cycle of the earth
consists of water vapor that enters the atmosphere through evaporation and comes
back via condensation and precipitation. Since oceans occupy approximately 70 percent of the
planet's surface, the largest amount of water in the cycle is derived from the evaporation of water
from the ocean surfaces. A secondary source of water vapor lies in rivers, lakes, and soil. Plant
transpiration occurs in areas with heavily vegetated land and adds to the vapor in the cycle.

issues as adolescents' drug use and delinquency. Nevertheless, it has been estimated that in about 5
million American families (roughly 20 percent), parents and adolescents engage in intense,

associated with many negative outcomes, including juvenile delinquency, moving away from home,
increased school dropout rates, unplanned pregnancy, membership in religious cults, and drug

Smallpox was the first widespread disease to be eliminated by human intervention. In May, 1966,
the World Health Organization (WHO), an agency of the United Nations was authorized to initiate a
global campaign to eradicate smallpox. The goal was to eliminate the disease in one decade. At the
time, the disease posed a serious threat to people in more than thirty nations. Because similar
projects for malaria and yellow fever had failed, few believed that smallpox could actually be
eradicated but eleven years after the initial organization of the campaign no cases were reported in
the field.
The strategy was not only to provide mass vaccinations but also to isolate patients with active
smallpox in order to contain the spread of the disease and to break the chain of human
transmission. Rewards for reporting smallpox assisted in motivating the public to aid health

workers. One by one each smallpox victim was sought out, removed from contact with others and
treated. At the same time, the entire village where the victim had lived was vaccinated.
By April of 1978 WHO officials announced that they had isolated the last known case of the
disease but health workers continued to search for new cases for additional years to be completely
sure. In May, 1980, a formal statement was made to the global community. Today, smallpox is no
longer a threat to humanity. Routine vaccinations have been stopped worldwide.

WHAT’S IN A NAME?
When naming a child, some parents seem to choose a name based simply on their personal
preference. In other families, grandparents or professional name-makers come up with a child’s
name. In some cases, the time of a child’s birth influences how the child’s name is determined.
In many European cultures, names are typically chosen by parents. Parents’ choice for their
child’s name may be based on names of their relatives or ancestors. For example, in Italy, children
are traditionally named after their grandparents. The parents generally use the father’s parents’
names first. If they have more children, then they will use the mother’s parents’ names. Similarly,
some people in Eastern Europe name their children after relatives who have died. This tradition is
seen as a means to protect the child from the Angel of Death.
Traditionally in some Asian countries, a child’s grandfather or a fortune-teller chooses the child’s
name. In contrast to the tradition of naming children after relatives, the child’s name is chosen to
128
ÔN THI TN THPT 2023 – PHIÊN BẢN NƯỚC RÚT
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
influence the child’s character. For example, names may be based on a connection to certain
elements such as fire, water, earth, wood, or metal. Or the name might include a written character
meaning beauty, strength, or kindness...
No matter where the name comes from, a child’s name is the first gift in life. Whether the name
is chosen according to preference or dictated by tradition, it reflects something about a child’s
culture. For that reason, all names should be treasured and respected.

Another way to protect the environment is to use canvas bags for shopping rather than plastic

than throwing them away once they are empty. Unwanted plastic goods such as CDs and toys can

Biro's invention that he invited him to set up a factory in Argentina. In 1943, the first Biro pens were

position for the ink to come out. Biro redesigned the pen with a better ball, and in 1944 the new
product was on sale throughout Argentina.
It was a North American, Milton Reynolds, who introduced the ballpoint pen to the USA. Copying
Biro's design, he produced the version that sold so well at Gimbels. Another American, Patrick
Frawley, improved the design and in 1950 began producing a pen he called the Papermate. It was an
immediate success, and within a few years, Papermates were selling in their millions around the

Rainforests provide us with many things. In fact, the Amazon Rainforest is called the "lungs of our
planet" because it produces twenty percent of the world's oxygen. One fifth of the world's fresh
water is also found in the Amazon Rainforest. Furthermore, one half of the world's species of
animals, plants, and insects live in the Earth's rainforests. Eighty percent of the food we eat first
grew in the rainforest. Twenty-five percent of the drugs we take when we are sick are made of
plants that grow only in rainforests. Some of these are even used to fight and cure cancer. With all
the good things we get from rainforests, it's surprising to find that we are destroying our rainforests.
The forests are being cut down to make fields for cows, to harvest the plants, and to clear land for
farms. Along with losing countless valuable species, the destruction of rainforests creates many

Marriage nowadays is a choice people make on their own, but this has not always been the case
in society. Thousands of years ago, the average lifespan was shorter than it is today. A man usually
lived until he was about 40 years old, while women died even sooner because of childbirth. There
were many wars and illnesses, and people had to protect themselves by having more children while
they were still young. The parents lived through their children.
Marriage was not so much a romantic love story but a business transaction, or deal. Most
marriages were arranged between parents while their children were still very young. It was the
custom that the fathers made the decision on whom their children were going to marry. The
mothers had little say in it since they rarely made any decisions outside the household. The fathers
would meet to arrange the wedding date and the money given for the bride on her wedding date.
The more money and land a girl had, the more chances she had to marry well. Therefore, it was
important that her father choose the bridegroom very well. Usually, it was someone who came
from a good family or who was rich too. It was very unlikely that people married outside their social

class. A few well-off and rich merchants got to marry poorer noblewomen and became King’s
business advisors. In a way, poor peasants had an easier choice as it was less important whom they
married.
The practice of arranged marriage is still common in some countries in the Middle East, such as
India or Pakistan. Here, social classes are still strongly divided and very well-kept. Often, however,
arranged marriages are a sign that people do not want to let go of the past, which gives them
comfort and security in an ever-changing world.

Over the past 600 years, English has grown from a language of few speakers to become the

Norman invasion of 1066. Until the 1600s, English was, for the most part, spoken only in England
and had not expanded even as far as Wales, Scotland, or Ireland. However, during the course of the
next two century, English began to spread around the globe as a result of exploration, trade
(including slave trade), colonization, and missionary work. Thus, in small enclaves of English,
speakers became established and grew in various parts of the world. As these communities
proliferated, English gradually became the primary language of international business, banking, and
diplomacy.

Exchange a glance with someone, and then look away. Do you realize that you have made a
statement? Hold the glance for a second longer and you have made a different statement. Hold it
for 3 seconds, and the meaning has changed again. For every social situation, there is a permissible
time that you can hold a person’s gaze without being intimate, rude, or aggressive. If you are on an
elevator, what gaze-time are you permitted? To answer this question, consider what you typically
do. You very likely give other passengers a quick glance to size them up and to assure them that you
mean no threat. Since being close to another person signals the possibility of interaction, you need
to send out a signal telling others you want to be left alone. So you cut off eye contacts that
sociologist Erving Goffiman(1963)calls “a dimming of the lights”. You look down at the floor, at
the indicator lights, anywhere but into another passenger’s eyes. Should you break the rule against
staring at a stranger on an elevator, you will make the other person extremely uncomfortable, and
you are likely to feel a bit strange yourself.
If you hold eye contacts for more than 3 seconds, what are you telling another person? Much
depends on the person and the situation. For instance, a man and a woman communicate interest
in this manner. They typically gaze at each other for about 3 seconds at a time, and then drop their
eyes down for 3 seconds, before letting their eyes meet again. But if one man gives another man a

correct answer to each of the questions from 136 to 140.
Traditions, sayings, beliefs, languages, and values are just a few things that make up our culture.
Culture is the framework in which families are structured. It shapes our expectations and ideals.
Culture plays a part in the meaning of marriage and our roles as husbands, wives, children and
parents.
Understanding cultural differences and similarities related to marriage is important. Culture
affects the roles that spouses take within marriages, the age at marriage and number of children a
couple have, the meaning of divorce, cohabitation and non-marital childbearing, and the way
parents raise children. Understanding how relationships and marriages vary across cultural contexts,
and how they are similar, we will be able to identify the unique ways that marriages and family life
affect people of various cultures. As a result, we will be able to help families and sustain happy
marriages.
A cross cultural marriage or similar love relationship can be extremely exciting. The cultural
background, visits to the other country, the language of the country and learning to speak it, the
different habits and ways of doing and saying things that people from other cultures have, are all
very exciting indeed. What of the disadvantages of a cross cultural marriage or love relationship
with someone from another country or cultural background? No matter how much you love your

A bachelor's degree, and often a master's degree, is the minimum requirement for a professional
position in social work. However, small agencies may accept some community college courses in
psychology or sociology. In such places, you may find a position available as a record keeper or an
aide to one of the social workers on the staff. Salaries usually start at $18,000.

their behaviour. Phones are constantly swallowing up other products like cameras, calculators, clocks,
radios, and digital music players. There are twenty different products that previously might have been
bought separately that can now be part of a mobile phone. Mobiles have changed the way people talk
to one another, they have generated a new type of language, they have saved lives and become style
icons.
Obviously, the rich have been buying phones faster than the poor. But this happens with every
innovation. Mobile phone take-up among the poor has actually been far quicker than it was in the
case of previous products, such as colour television, computers and Internet access. Indeed, as mobile
phones continue to become cheaper and more powerful, they might prove to be more successful in
bridging the gap between the rich and the poor than expensive computers.
There are obviously drawbacks to mobiles as well: mobile users are two and a half times more
likely to develop cancer in areas of the brain adjacent to their phone ear, although researchers are
unable to prove whether this has anything to do with the phone; mobile thefts now account for a third
of all street robberies in London, and don't forget about all the accidents waiting to happen as people

In 2007, at a heavily hyped press event in San Francisco, Apple co-founder Steve Jobs stood on
stage and unveiled a revolutionary product that not only broke the mould but also set an entirely new
paradigm for computer-based phones. The look, interface and core functionality of nearly every
smartphone to come along since is, in some form or another, derived from the original iPhone’s
innovative touchscreen-centric design.
Among some of the ground-breaking features was an expansive and responsive display from
which to check email, stream video, play audio, and browse the internet with a mobile browser that
loaded full websites, much like what is experienced on personal computers. Apple’s unique iOS
operating system allowed for a wide range of intuitive gesture-based commands and eventually, a
rapidly growing warehouse of downloadable third-party applications.
Most importantly, the iPhone reoriented people’s relationship with smartphones. Up to then,
they were generally geared toward businesspeople and enthusiasts who saw them as an invaluable
tool for staying organized, corresponding over email, and boosting their productivity. Apple’s version
took it to a whole other level as a full-blown multimedia powerhouse, enabling users to play games,
watch movies, chat, share content, and stay connected to all the possibilities that we are all still
constantly rediscovering.

Today, Snyder is seeing the fruits of the collaboration. In a recent issue of the Journal of
Comparative Psychology (Vol. 117, No. 3), the research group published the first study of giant
panda cub-rearing and separation. The study is the first step in examining the impact of a common
breeding practice in China: separating captive cubs before they are six months old so that the mothers
will be able to reproduce again sooner. Cubs in the wild stay with their mothers for 1.5 to 2.5 years.
Snyder and her co-authors, including Maple and psychologist Mollie Bloomsmith, PhD,
theorize that separating cubs from their mothers too early may harm their social development, and
could underlie why so many captive pandas fail to breed. Captive males often show little sexual
interest in females or are too aggressive.
The research team has also conducted urinary and behavioral analyses of female giant pandas
during the breeding season, which is generally in the spring, and is examining the behavior of giant
panda mothers. Graduate student Megan Wilson, who also has worked in Chengdu, is investigating
sequences of play-fighting for her dissertation. And former graduate student and Chengdu researcher
Loraine Tarou, PhD, examined giant panda cognition.
Tarou, now an assistant professor at Grand Valley State University in Michigan, is the first to
examine how captive pandas forage for food and learn to adapt to changes in their environment. She
compared her findings with the cognition of the spectacled bear and found that while both use spatial
memory to find food, the spectacled bears used visual cues the pandas did not pick up on.
The finding indicates that giant pandas' reliance on spatial memory alone may cause them to
have difficulty when their food sources are abruptly changed or moved--a big problem for an animal
that consumes nearly 30 pounds of bamboo a day.
While such basic research may not have immediate application, says Tarou, it is contributing to
scientists' growing knowledge of the species.

The relationship between Britain and the US has always been a close one. Like all close relationships
it has had difficult times. The US was first a British colony, but between 1775 and 1783 the US
fought a war to become independent. The US fought the British again in the War of 1812.
In general, however, the two countries have felt closer to each other than to any other country,
and their foreign policies have shown this. During World War I and World War II, Britain and the US
supported each other. When the US looks for foreign support, Britain is usually the first country to
come forward and it is sometimes called “the 51st state of the union”.
But the special relationship that developed after 1945 is not explained only by shared political
interests. An important reason for the friendship is that the people of the two countries are very
similar. They share the same language and enjoy each other's literature, films and television. Many
Americans have British ancestors, or relatives still living in Britain. The US government and political
system is based on Britain's, and there are many Anglo-American businesses operating on both sides
of the Atlantic. In Britain some people are worried about the extent of US influence, and there is
some jealousy of its current power. The special relationship was strong in the early 1980s when
Margaret Thatcher was Prime Minister in Britain and Ronald Reagan was President of the US.

There are two basic types of glaciers, those that flow outward in all directions with little
regard for any underlying terrain and those that are confined by terrain to a particular path.
The first category of glaciers includes those massive blankets that cover whole continents,
appropriately called ice sheets. There must be over 50,000 square kilometers of land covered with
ice for the glacier to qualify as an ice sheet, when portions of an ice sheet spread out over the
ocean, they form ice shelves.
About 20,000 years ago the Cordilleran Ice sheet covered nearly all the mountains in southern
Alaska, western Canada, and the western United States. It was about 3 kilometers deep at its
167
ÔN THI TN THPT 2023 – PHIÊN BẢN NƯỚC RÚT
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
thickest point in northern Alberta. Now there are only two sheets left on Earth, those covering
Greenland and Antarctica.
Any domelike body of ice that also flows out in all directions but covers less than 50,000 square
kilometers is called an ice cap. Although ice caps are rare nowadays, there are a number in
northeastern Canada, on Baffin Island, and on the Queen Elizabeth Islands.
The second category of glaciers includes those of a variety of shapes and sizes generally
called mountain or alpine glaciers. Mountain glaciers are typically identified by the landform that
controls their flow. One form of mountain glacier that resembles an ice cap in that it flows outward
in several directions is called an ice field. The difference between an ice field and an ice cap is
subtle. Essentially, the flow of an ice field is somewhat controlled by surrounding terrain and thus
does not have the domelike shape of a cap. There are several ice fields in the Wrangell. St. Elias,
and Chugach mountains of Alaska and northern British Columbia.
Less spectacular than large ice fields are the most common types of mountain glaciers: the
cirque and valley glaciers. Cirque glaciers are found in depressions in the surface of the land and
have a characteristic circular shape. The ice of valley glaciers, bound by terrain, flows down
valleys, curves around their corners, and falls over cliffs.

A. Where major glaciers are located B. How glaciers shape the land
C. The different kinds of glaciers D. How glaciers are formed
Question 37: The word “terrain” in paragraph 1 could best be replaced by____________.

The first device that technically qualifies as a smartphone was simply a highly sophisticated (for
its time) brick phone. You know one of those bulky, but fairly exclusive status-symbol toys flashed
in '80s movies like "Wall Street?" The IBM Simon Personal Communicator, released in 1994, was a
169
ÔN THI TN THPT 2023 – PHIÊN BẢN NƯỚC RÚT
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
sleeker, more advanced, and premium brick that sold for $1,100. Sure, a lot of smartphones today
cost about as much, but remember that $1,100 in the 1990s was nothing to sneeze at.
IBM had conceived of the idea for a computer-style phone as early as the '70s, but it wasn't until
1992 that the company unveiled a prototype at the COMDEX computer and technology trade show in
Las Vegas. Besides placing and receiving calls, the Simon prototype could also send facsimiles,
emails, and cellular pages. It even had a nifty touch screen for dialing numbers. Extra features
included apps for a calendar, address book, calculator, scheduler, and notepad. IBM also
demonstrated that the phone was capable of displaying maps, stocks, news, and other third-party
applications, with certain modifications.
Tragically, the Simon ended up in the heap pile of being too ahead of its time. Despite all the
snazzy features, it was cost-prohibitive for most and was only useful for a very niche clientele. The
distributor, BellSouth Cellular, would later reduce the price of the phone to $599 with a two-year
contract. And even then, the company only sold about 50,000 units. The company took the product
off the market after six months.
Câu 6. Which of the following is TRUE about BellSouth Cellular's product as stated in the passage?
A. The Simon had too many things to do with the product.
B. The product was not smart enough to attract clientele.
C. The product was prohibited by the government.
D. It was too expensive and not useful for most of customers at that time.

It feels can feel like, with all the new responsibilities involved in being a new parent, there's
simply no time to worry about your relationship as a couple. For many new mums and dads, this side
of things simply falls the bottom of their priority list.
And while this is understandable, it can also make things harder in the long run. Because - far
from being something that can simply be put to the side until there's time to give it proper attention -
your relationship together is going to be at the heart of how effectively you're able to take on the role
of being a new parent.
If you and your partner are able to support each other through what will probably be a fairly
challenging time in your lives, you're much more likely to be able to deal with your new
responsibilities as a team. If you can keep your connection strong, you're more likely to feel this is
something you're facing together - not just as two individuals.
Paying attention to your relationship is also important because the challenges of being a parent
are going to put pressure on you as a couple. You may find certain things your partner is doing
annoying or frustrating, and there may be areas where you wish they would support you more.
Being able to bring these things up and talk about them properly will be key in navigating things
together.
And finally, it's also important you're able to find the occasional bit of quality time together so
you can stay in touch with the fun, affectionate side of your relationship. Remember: fun isn't just a
frivolous thing - it's a really important part of staying close and feeling connected to your partner.
On a practical level, this can mean trying to put aside a little time to reconnect regularly. It
doesn't have to be lots. It might be 30 minutes before you go to bed, or 20 minutes over breakfast.
The point is to find a little bit of time when you can talk, make sure you're both ok, express anything
that's on your minds - or just to be affectionate and cuddle.

Newsapers and television news programs always seem to report about the bad things happening in
society. However, there is a place where readers can find some good news. That place is the website
called HappyNews.
The man behind HappyNews is Byron Reese. Reese set up HappyNews because he thought other
news sources were giving people an unbalanced view of the world. Reese said about HappyNews,
“The news media gives you a distorted view of the world by exaggerating bad news, misery, and
despair. We're trying to balance out the scale."
Not everyone agrees with Reese's view, though. Many people think that news sources have a
responsibility to provide news that is helpful to people. People need to know about issues or problems
in today's society. Then they are better able to make informed decisions about things that affect their
daily lives. Reese said that HappyNews is not trying to stop people from learning about issues or
problems. HappyNews is just trying to provide a balanced picture of today's world.
By the end of its first month online, HappyNews had more than 70,000 unique readers. About 60
percent of those readers were women. Something else unique makes HappyNews different from any
of the other news or information websites that are on the Internet. Unlike many other websites,
HappyNews gets fan mail from its readers on a daily basis.
The number of people accessing the State’s and community’s priority policies and programmes is
increasing, said Minister of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs Dao Ngoc Dung. Vietnam has
around 6.2 million people over the age of two with disabilities, making up 7.06 per cent of the
country’s population. Of those, 28 per cent are severely disabled, 58 per cent female, 28 per cent
children and 10 per cent living in poverty. Most live in rural areas and many are victims of Agent
Orange.

Minister Dung said in the past, the State, the Party and Vietnamese people had paid much care to
people with disabilities. Vietnam ratified the United Nations Convention on the Rights of People with
Disabilities in 2014. In March this year, the country ratified the International Labour Organisation’s
Convention 159 about jobs for people with disabilities. It strongly confirmed Vietnam’s commitment
to ensuring the disabled would not be discriminated against at work.
Last month, the Secretariat Committee issued Instruction 39 about the Party’s leading work on
affairs related to people with disabilities. The National Assembly later ratified the amended Law on
Labour with many adjustments relating to disabled people. Dung said that every year, millions of
disabled people receive an allowance from the State and all provinces and cities had rehabilitation
centres. Attending the event, Truong Thi Mai, head of the Party Central Committee’s Commission for
Mass Mobilisation, said besides the achievements, Vietnam still sees many obstacles. Infrastructure is
still limited in demand for people with disabilities and many life below the poverty line depending
heavily on their families.
Mai asked organisations to improve education to raise people’s awareness of the meaning of
supportive work to people with disabilities. This year, more than VNĐ17 trillion (US$735.4 million)
from the State budget was allocated to provinces and cities to implement policies for people with
disabilities, according to the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs.
The Ministry of Planning and Investment on Thursday launched the programme “White stick for
Vietnamese visual impaired people”. Its aim is to present one million white sticks to visually impaired
people across the country. Training to use the device will also be provided. Minister of Planning and
Investment Nguyen Chi Dung said the ministry will listen to disabled people’s demands and wishes and
put them into its policies. Deputy chairwoman of the National Assembly Tong Thi Phong said Vietnam
has committed to developing socio-economy, taking care of social equality and improving social
management ability.

What do you imagine cities will be like in the future? Will we have smart buildings and flying cars?
Or robots that will pick up our rubbish? What about schools? Will we still travel to school or will we
study online from home? Perhaps all the buildings and roads will be underground and we'll just have
parks and cycle lanes above.
What we do know is that in the future, cities are going to have more and more people living in them.
More than half the world's people already live in cities, and by 2050, cities will become home to
about 6.5 billion people. That's a lot of people and very little space! More people means that we're
going to have more pollution, traffic and noise. It also means that we'll need more homes, schools,

hospitals, jobs and transport. We'll need more resources, like water and energy, and more ways to

Many cities are already planning for the future. For example, Bristol is a cycling city in England. You
can hire a bike (instead of taking a car or bus) and ride in cycle lanes which are separated from the
traffic. In Singapore, people are looking 'up' to grow food! To save space, they grow vegetables in
lots of layers in special tall buildings, called 'vertical farms'. And in Amsterdam in the Netherlands,
there are 'floating houses' built on water instead of on land!
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the following questions.
Grandparents are becoming the forgotten generation, with youngsters now too busy to listen
to their stories from the olden days.
A study of 1,000 five to 18 year-olds reveals just 21 per cent will visit their older relatives to
hear about how their lives were different in the past; such as where they worked, how it was living in
the war, and how they met the love of their life. More than half of youths have no idea what job their
grandparent did before retirement - admitting they'd never thought to ask. Sadly, one in 10 admitted
they are simply not interested in their grandmother's or granddad's previous job or talents and
interests, and a quarter only turn up to see them for pocket money. But 23 per cent claim the reason
they don't know anything about their older relatives is because they don't really get the chance to talk
properly.
Geoff Bates, spokesman for McCarthy & Stone's Inspirational Generation campaign, said:
“We know this generation have lived full lives with heroic tales to tell and so much to offer, but how
many of us have actually thought to ask these questions of our older family members? We want to
shout about the amazing feats retirees have achieved in their lifetime and put the spotlight on the
wonderfully colorful lives of today's older people. We are calling on parents and children to talk to
their grandparents, to find out what they have done in their lives - and continue to do, and tell us all
about it so we can give them the credit they deserve.”
Researchers found that although 65 per cent of youngsters do see their grandparents every
single week, 37 per cent claim this is only because their parents want them to. And while 39 per cent
talk to their grandparents on the phone, Facebook or Skype at least once a week - 16 per cent once a
day - conversation is rarely focused on what they are doing or have done in the past. Four in 10 kids
have no idea what their grandparents proudest achievements are, while 30 per cent don't know if they
have any special skills or talents. And 42 per cent don't spend any time talking about their
grandparent's history -and are therefore clueless about what their grandmother or granddad was like
when they were younger. Perhaps due to this lack of communication and respect, just six per cent of
children say they look up to their grandparents as a role model and inspiration. However,
grandchildren are agreed their grandparents are both loving and friendly, while 43 per cent think
they're funny - with 23 per cent admitting they often have more fun with their elderly relatives than
their parents.
