Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
best answer to each of the following questions from 12 to 19.
In a world increasingly shaped by technological advancement, the concept of a "career path" has
evolved dramatically. Traditionally, a career path was seen as a linear progression within a single
industry or profession. Today, however, it is often nonlinear and characterized by multiple shifts across
fields. This shift has been driven by globalization, automation, and the rise of the gig economy. For
instance, a professional may start as an engineer, transition into data analysis, and later become a consultant.
One of the key challenges of navigating modern career paths is dealing with uncertainty. Unlike in the
past, when long-term employment in one organization was common, today’s workforce must be
prepared to continually upskill and reskill to increase their adaptability. According to a report by the
World Economic Forum, nearly half of all employees will need significant retraining by 2030 due to
advancements in artificial intelligence and automation. This has given rise to the concept of "lifelong Trang 3
learning," where individuals proactively pursue education and training throughout their lives.
Another emerging trend is the emphasis on purpose-driven careers. Younger generations,
particularly millennials and Gen Z, increasingly prioritize roles that align with their values and
contribute to societal or environmental change. For example, careers in renewable energy, non-
profit organizations, and social entrepreneurship are gaining popularity. However, chasing a
meaningful goal often requires sacrifices, such as accepting lower starting salaries or taking non- traditional career paths.
Despite the challenges, modern career paths offer unparalleled opportunities for personal and
professional growth. With the right attitude and resources, people can build careers that are rewarding
and flexible in a fast-changing world.

Question 15. The phrase long-term in paragraph 2 OPPOSITE in meaning to _____. A. lasting B. temporary C. loyal D. unchangeable
Question 16. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 3?
Younger generations, particularly millennials and Gen Z, increasingly prioritize roles that align
with their values and contribute to societal or environmental change.
A. Millennials and Gen Z prioritize societal and environmental change over job opportunities.
B. Younger generations focus more on jobs with better contribution to societal or environmental
change than on roles that are suitable with their values.
C. Younger generations prefer jobs that match their principles and have a positive impact on society or the environment.
D. Younger generations avoid roles that do not offer societal or environmental benefits.
Question 17. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Lifelong learning is becoming essential due to rapid technological advancements.
B. Long-term employment with a single organization is more common today than in the past.
C. Career paths today are typically linear and confined to a single industry. Trang 4

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, D on your answer sheet to indicate the best
answer to each of the following questions from 26 to 35.
(I) Cultural diversity has long been a defining trait of human societies, and in recent years, the world
has witnessed a significant surge in cultural exchanges. (II) Various factors, including globalization,
migration, and technological innovations, have facilitated this intensifying interconnection among
cultures. (III) Experts anticipate that by 2050, the global cultural landscape will be even more closely
connected than it is today. (IV) This rapid cultural exchange offers great benefits but also presents
significant challenges for societies worldwide.
A primary driver of cultural exchange is the increasing prevalence of migration. As individuals relocate
across national borders in pursuit of enhanced career prospects, education, or a more secure
environment, they inevitably transport their cultural customs, languages, and values. This often leads to
the blending of different cultural practices, enriching the social life of the host country. Furthermore,
advancements in communication technologies have revolutionized the way people disseminate and
celebrate cultural distinctions. The internet, social media platforms, and accessible global travel enable
individuals to immerse themselves in cultures from distant corners of the world without necessitating physical relocation.
However, cultural exchange is not without its complexities. Interactions between individuals from
different cultural backgrounds can sometimes give rise to misunderstandings or value-based conflicts.
For example, certain cultural practices may be at odds with local norms, resulting in social conflict.
Additionally, the widespread dissemination of globalized culture, particularly Western culture, often
threatens to overlook or replace indigenous traditions and heritage, leading to the erosion of unique cultural identities.
Despite these impediments, cultural exchange remains an invaluable mechanism for fostering
mutual comprehension and respect among diverse communities. To ensure that cultural diversity
thrives while minimizing conflict, it is essential for societies to develop inclusive policies that both
honor and celebrate differences, while promoting constructive dialogue and integration. By cultivating
cultural awareness and tolerance, communities can harness the wealth of diverse traditions and
perspectives, ultimately creating a more harmonious and enriched global society. Trang 6

Question 27. According to paragraph 1, which of the following is NOT a reason for cultural exchange?
A. technological advancements B. globalization C. migration D. global conflicts Question 28.
The phrase “distinctions” in paragraph 2 OPPOSITE in meaning to _____. A. problems B. differences C. similarities D. influences
Question 29. The word "they" in paragraph 2 refers to _____. A. cultural practices B. societies C. languages D. migrants
Question 30. Which of the following best summarizes paragraph 2?
A. Migration and technology are major drivers of cultural exchange, enabling individuals to share
and experience diverse cultures.
B. People migrate primarily to escape conflict, and technology helps them maintain their original cultural practices.
C. Technological advancements are the sole factor in increasing cultural exchange, without the need for migration.
D. While migration promotes the blending of cultures, technology has no role to play in the
facilitation of cultural exchange.

Question 32. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Migration brings negative effects to the societies that host migrants.
B. Cultural exchange can sometimes result in the complete loss of cultural identities.
C. Globalized culture often poses a threat to indigenous traditions and heritage.
D. Misunderstandings in cultural exchange are rare and easily resolved.
Question 33. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 4?
Despite these impediments, cultural exchange remains an invaluable mechanism for fostering
mutual comprehension and respect among diverse communities.
A. Cultural exchange is difficult but necessary for creating lasting connections between diverse Trang 7 communities.
B. Cultural exchange is important because it helps us learn about other communities, regardless of the obstacles it faces.
C. Because of its challenges, cultural exchange is not an effective means of fostering understanding
and respect between different communities.
D. Cultural exchange, despite its difficulties, is a powerful way to promote understanding and
respect among different groups.
Question 34. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. The more people are exposed to and experience other cultures, the less they value their own cultural identity.
B. Migration and technology have made the world more interconnected, but they also pose challenges.
C. Cultural exchange is only beneficial if it does not affect local traditions.
D. Western culture is the primary cause of cultural clashes and misunderstandings globally.
Question 35. Which of the following best summarises the passage?
A. Technology and migration are the main drivers of cultural clashes, undermining the benefits of cultural diversity.
B. Migration and technology boost cultural exchange but can erode traditions and increase tensions.
C. Cultural exchange, driven by migration and technology, not only offers benefits but also presents
challenges to maintaining cultural identities.
D. Global cultural exchange offers opportunities to promote understanding, but it requires careful
management to avoid social conflicts.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
best answer to each of the following questions from 12 to 19.
In a world increasingly shaped by technological advancement, the concept of a "career path" has
evolved dramatically. Traditionally, a career path was seen as a linear progression within a single
industry or profession. Today, however, it is often nonlinear and characterized by multiple shifts across
fields. This shift has been driven by globalization, automation, and the rise of the gig economy. For
instance, a professional may start as an engineer, transition into data analysis, and later become a consultant.
One of the key challenges of navigating modern career paths is dealing with uncertainty. Unlike in the
past, when long-term employment in one organization was common, today’s workforce must be
prepared to continually upskill and reskill to increase their adaptability. According to a report by the
World Economic Forum, nearly half of all employees will need significant retraining by 2030 due to
advancements in artificial intelligence and automation. This has given rise to the concept of "lifelong
learning," where individuals proactively pursue education and training throughout their lives.
Another emerging trend is the emphasis on purpose-driven careers. Younger generations,
particularly millennials and Gen Z, increasingly prioritize roles that align with their values and
contribute to societal or environmental change. For example, careers in renewable energy, non-
profit organizations, and social entrepreneurship are gaining popularity. However, chasing a
meaningful goal often requires sacrifices, such as accepting lower starting salaries or taking non- traditional career paths.
Despite the challenges, modern career paths offer unparalleled opportunities for personal and
professional growth. With the right attitude and resources, people can build careers that are rewarding
and flexible in a fast-changing world.
