Read the 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 23 to 30.
Online scams have grown quickly in recent years and are now a serious danger to internet users
around the world. Scammers use smart tricks to fool people, often by sending fake emails, messages, or
creating websites that look real. Many people lose money, personal information, or even their identity
because they believe these lies. As technology develops, scammers find new ways to use people’s trust
and lack of knowledge.
One of the most common types of scams is phishing, where criminals act like banks, government
offices, or famous companies. They send messages that seem urgent, asking people to give their passwords
or payment details. Another popular scam is the romance scam, where criminals pretend to start a
relationship online to trick people emotionally and take their money. These scams are hard to spot because
they use strong feelings to confuse the victim.
Social media has made scams even easier to spread. Fake advertisements, false investments, and
people pretending to be celebrities or influencers often lead others to send money or give away private
information. Scammers usually focus on people who are older or going through money problems, using fear
or fake promises to pressure them. Many fall for these scams because the offers sound amazing— but they
are not real.
To stay safe, people should be careful with messages from unknown sources or deals that seem too
good. Checking the sender, avoiding strange links, and using strong passwords can help protect personal
information. Governments and companies should also help by improving online safety and teaching people
how to spot scams. Even though scams keep changing, being careful and staying informed are still the best
ways to stay safe.
Question 23. As stated in paragraph 1, people lose all of the following to scammers EXCEPT _______.
A. their identity B. fake emails C. money D. personal information
Question 24. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 1?
A. As people trust technology more, their knowledge becomes limited because scammers find more ways
to trick them.
B. As scammers create new tricks, technology develops to protect people from their lack of knowledge
and trust.
C. With advances in technology, scammers find new ways to exploit people’s trust and ignorance.
D. Since technology improves, people’s trust and limited knowledge are vulnerable to new tricks
created by scammers.
Question 25. The word their in paragraph 2 refers to _______.
A. criminals B. companies C. people D. messages
Question 26. The word spot in paragraph 2 can be best replaced by _______.
A. verify B. impose C. expect D. identify
Question 27. The phrase “fall for” in paragraph 3 is OPPOSITE in meaning to _______.
A. demand B. avoid C. believe D. trick
Question 28. Which of the following is TRUE according to paragraph 4?
A. The most effective ways to avoid scams are to stay informed and remain cautious.
B. People can protect their data by being cautious and checking normal messages.
C. Most scams remain the same, but you are not safe until you use strong passwords.
D. Sharing strong passwords with trusted sources helps avoid being scammed.
Question 29. Which paragraph mentions specific groups being targeted by scammers?
A. Paragraph 1 B. Paragraph 2 C. Paragraph 3 D. Paragraph 4
Question 30. Which paragraph gives advice?
A. Paragraph 1 B. Paragraph 2 C. Paragraph 3 D. Paragraph 4
Read the 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 31 to 40.
It was a quiet Sunday evening in a small town in the UK. The Carter family — parents Mark and Helen,
and their two teenage children, Lucy and Ben sat around the dinner table in silence. Despite being
physically present, everyone’s attention was fixed on a screen: Mark was checking work emails, Helen was
scrolling through recipes, Lucy was watching a video, and Ben was absorbed in a mobile game. The only
sounds were the soft clinks of cutlery. Frustrated by the lack of interaction, Helen suddenly said, “Enough is
enough — we’re going tech-free for a month.” [I]
The idea of giving up phones, tablets, and television seemed unimaginable. [II] All devices were
placed in a locked drawer, and a new daily rhythm began. After dinner, the family played board games, went
for walks, or read together instead of staring at screens. They even started a journal where each member
could reflect on their day. The first few days were undeniably challenging. Ben struggled without his gaming
console, while Lucy missed messaging her friends. [III] The absence of digital entertainment made the
evenings feel long and unfamiliar.

Trang 3/4 - Mã đề thi 2201
However, as time passed, things began to change. Mealtimes became livelier, filled with genuine
conversations and shared laughter. Lucy discovered an interest in baking and often helped Helen in the
kitchen. Ben, now less restless, learned to ride his bike without training wheels. Even Mark, usually
preoccupied with work, became more engaged with his children and said he finally felt connected to them.
By the end of the month, the Carters recognised how much they had gained from their decision.
Although they gradually reintroduced technology, they were no longer controlled by it. [IV] Together, they
established new boundaries: no devices at meals, limited screen time during the week, and regular “offline
nights” to reconnect without digital distractions. The experience not only improved their relationships but
also reshaped their daily routines. What began as a desperate attempt to restore communication evolved
into a valuable life lesson — that real connection is built through time, attention, and being truly present.
Question 31. According to paragraph 1, which activity was NOT mentioned as something the Carter family
members were doing during dinner?
A. Browsing cooking ideas online B. Catching up on office tasks
C. Watching a video clip D. Learning to play an online game
Question 32. Helen introduced a tech-free month in order to _______.
A. bring the family back to in-person interaction B. reduce the family's dependence on social media
C. limit her children’s screen time during mealtime D. achieve a more noticeable work-life balance
Question 33. The word They in paragraph 2 refers to _______.
A. The Carters B. Board games C. Devices D. The parents
Question 34. Ben and Lucy are mentioned in paragraph 2 to illustrate that _______.
A. they preferred spending time alone B. they disagreed with their parents’ decision
C. giving up screens was initially far from easy D. they were too dependent on text messages
Question 35. Which of the following best summarises paragraph 3?
A. Mark finally connected with his children, fostering laughter and shared stories during a period without
technology.
B. The Carter family became closer after Lucy started baking and Ben learned to ride a bike during the
tech-free month.
C. The Carter family gradually reconnected, spending more time together and sharing activities as they
lived a tech-free month.
D. A tech-free month unsurprisingly caused the Carter family to talk more, share activities, and helped
them understand each other better.
Question 36. The word genuine in paragraph 3 is CLOSEST in meaning to _______.
A. official B. sincere C. rare D. valuable
Question 37. Where in the passage does the following sentence best fit?
Nevertheless, the parents stood firm.
A. [I] B. [II] C. [III] D. [IV]
Question 38. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 4?
A. Were it not for the experience, their relationships wouldn’t have deepened, nor would their routines
have changed.
B. So impactful was the experience that it enhanced their bonds by transforming their day-to-day habits.
C. Their relationships grew stronger, and their everyday patterns evolved as a direct result of the
experience.
D. Hardly had the experience ended when their connections strengthened and their schedules shifted
dramatically.
Question 39. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. The tech-free month enabled the Carters to give up technology for better connection completely.
B. Helen appeared the least dependent on technology, which is why she easily gave it up first.
C. Genuine human connection is built on both effective communication and modern technology.
D. The Carters' relationship with technology evolved from compulsive use to mindful integration.
Question 40. Which of the following best summarises the passage?
A. The Carter family agreed to live a tech-free month, leading to initial resistance but ultimately resulting in
improved communication and shared activities, fostering stronger bonds.
B. The Carters went a tech-free month, struggled at first, then reconnected through shared activities, and
adopted new screen-time habits that lasted beyond the experiment.
C. After taking a break from screens for a month, the Carters found immediate joy in offline activities and
chose to adopt healthier screen use to strengthen family bonds.
D. The Carters, after a month without devices, successfully reconnected, learned valuable lessons about
true connection, and adopted new habits for balanced technology use.

console, while Lucy missed messaging her friends. [III] The absence of digital entertainment made the
evenings feel long and unfamiliar.
However, as time passed, things began to change. Mealtimes became livelier, filled with genuine
conversations and shared laughter. Lucy discovered an interest in baking and often helped Helen in the
kitchen. Ben, now less restless, learned to ride his bike without training wheels. Even Mark, usually
preoccupied with work, became more engaged with his children and said he finally felt connected to them.
By the end of the month, the Carters recognised how much they had gained from their decision.
Although they gradually reintroduced technology, they were no longer controlled by it. [IV] Together, they
established new boundaries: no devices at meals, limited screen time during the week, and regular “offline
nights” to reconnect without digital distractions. The experience not only improved their relationships but
also reshaped their daily routines. What began as a desperate attempt to restore communication evolved
into a valuable life lesson — that real connection is built through time, attention, and being truly present.
Question 31. According to paragraph 1, which activity was NOT mentioned as something the Carter family
members were doing during dinner?
A. Browsing cooking ideas online B. Catching up on office tasks
C. Watching a video clip D. Learning to play an online game
Question 32. Helen introduced a tech-free month in order to _______.
A. bring the family back to in-person interaction B. reduce the family's dependence on social media
C. limit her children’s screen time during mealtime D. achieve a more noticeable work-life balance
Question 33. The word They in paragraph 2 refers to _______.
A. The Carters B. Board games C. Devices D. The parents
Question 34. Ben and Lucy are mentioned in paragraph 2 to illustrate that _______.
A. they preferred spending time alone B. they disagreed with their parents’ decision
C. giving up screens was initially far from easy D. they were too dependent on text messages
Question 35. Which of the following best summarises paragraph 3?
A. Mark finally connected with his children, fostering laughter and shared stories during a period without
technology.
B. The Carter family became closer after Lucy started baking and Ben learned to ride a bike during the
tech-free month.
C. The Carter family gradually reconnected, spending more time together and sharing activities as they
lived a tech-free month.
D. A tech-free month unsurprisingly caused the Carter family to talk more, share activities, and helped
them understand each other better.
Question 36. The word genuine in paragraph 3 is CLOSEST in meaning to _______.
A. official B. sincere C. rare D. valuable
Question 37. Where in the passage does the following sentence best fit?
Nevertheless, the parents stood firm.
A. [I] B. [II] C. [III] D. [IV]
Question 38. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 4?
A. Were it not for the experience, their relationships wouldn’t have deepened, nor would their routines
have changed.
B. So impactful was the experience that it enhanced their bonds by transforming their day-to-day habits.
C. Their relationships grew stronger, and their everyday patterns evolved as a direct result of the
experience.
D. Hardly had the experience ended when their connections strengthened and their schedules shifted
dramatically.
Question 39. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. The tech-free month enabled the Carters to give up technology for better connection completely.
B. Helen appeared the least dependent on technology, which is why she easily gave it up first.
C. Genuine human connection is built on both effective communication and modern technology.
D. The Carters' relationship with technology evolved from compulsive use to mindful integration.
Question 40. Which of the following best summarises the passage?
A. The Carter family agreed to live a tech-free month, leading to initial resistance but ultimately resulting in
improved communication and shared activities, fostering stronger bonds.
B. The Carters went a tech-free month, struggled at first, then reconnected through shared activities, and
adopted new screen-time habits that lasted beyond the experiment.
C. After taking a break from screens for a month, the Carters found immediate joy in offline activities and
chose to adopt healthier screen use to strengthen family bonds.
D. The Carters, after a month without devices, successfully reconnected, learned valuable lessons about

Online scams have grown quickly in recent years and are now a serious danger to internet users around the world. Scammers use smart tricks to fool people, often by sending fake emails, messages, or creating websites that look real. Many people lose money, personal information, or even their identity because they believe these lies. As technology develops, scammers find new ways to use people’s trust and lack of knowledge.

One of the most common types of scams is phishing, where criminals act like banks, government offices, or famous companies. They send messages that seem urgent, asking people to give their passwords or payment details. Another popular scam is the romance scam, where criminals pretend to start a relationship online to trick people emotionally and take their money. These scams are hard to spot because they use strong feelings to confuse the victim.

Social media has made scams even easier to spread. Fake advertisements, false investments, and people pretending to be celebrities or influencers often lead others to send money or give away private information. Scammers usually focus on people who are older or going through money problems, using fear or fake promises to pressure them. Many fall for these scams because the offers sound amazing— but they are not real.

To stay safe, people should be careful with messages from unknown sources or deals that seem too good. Checking the sender, avoiding strange links, and using strong passwords can help protect personal information. Governments and companies should also help by improving online safety and teaching people how to spot scams. Even though scams keep changing, being careful and staying informed are still the best ways to stay safe.

Question 23. As stated in paragraph 1, people lose all of the following to scammers EXCEPT _______.

A. their identity

B. fake emails

C. money

D. personal information

Question 24. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 1?

A. As people trust technology more, their knowledge becomes limited because scammers find more ways to trick them.

B. As scammers create new tricks, technology develops to protect people from their lack of knowledge and trust.

C. With advances in technology, scammers find new ways to exploit people’s trust and ignorance.

D. Since technology improves, people’s trust and limited knowledge are vulnerable to new tricks

created by scammers.

Question 25. The word their in paragraph 2 refers to _______.

A. criminals

B. companies

C. people

D. messages

Question 26. The word spot in paragraph 2 can be best replaced by _______.

A. verify

B. impose

C. expect

D. identify

Question 27. The phrase “fall for” in paragraph 3 is OPPOSITE in meaning to _______.

A. demand

B. avoid

C. believe

D. trick

Question 28. Which of the following is TRUE according to paragraph 4?

A. The most effective ways to avoid scams are to stay informed and remain cautious.

B. People can protect their data by being cautious and checking normal messages.

C. Most scams remain the same, but you are not safe until you use strong passwords.

D. Sharing strong passwords with trusted sources helps avoid being scammed.

Question 29. Which paragraph mentions specific groups being targeted by scammers?

A. Paragraph 1

B. Paragraph 2

C. Paragraph 3

D. Paragraph 4

Question 30. Which paragraph gives advice?

A. Paragraph 1

B. Paragraph 2

C. Paragraph 3

D. Paragraph 4

Read the 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 31 to 40.

It was a quiet Sunday evening in a small town in the UK. The Carter family — parents Mark and Helen, and their two teenage children, Lucy and Ben — sat around the dinner table in silence. Despite being physically present, everyone’s attention was fixed on a screen: Mark was checking work emails, Helen was scrolling through recipes, Lucy was watching a video, and Ben was absorbed in a mobile game. The only sounds were the soft clinks of cutlery. Frustrated by the lack of interaction, Helen suddenly said, “Enough is enough — we’re going tech-free for a month.” [I]

The idea of giving up phones, tablets, and television seemed unimaginable. [II] All devices were placed in a locked drawer, and a new daily rhythm began. After dinner, the family played board games, went for walks, or read together instead of staring at screens. They even started a journal where each member could reflect on their day. The first few days were undeniably challenging. Ben struggled without his gaming console, while Lucy missed messaging her friends. [III] The absence of digital entertainment made the evenings feel long and unfamiliar.

However, as time passed, things began to change. Mealtimes became livelier, filled with genuine conversations and shared laughter. Lucy discovered an interest in baking and often helped Helen in the kitchen. Ben, now less restless, learned to ride his bike without training wheels. Even Mark, usually preoccupied with work, became more engaged with his children and said he finally felt connected to them.

By the end of the month, the Carters recognised how much they had gained from their decision. Although they gradually reintroduced technology, they were no longer controlled by it. [IV] Together, they established new boundaries: no devices at meals, limited screen time during the week, and regular “offline nights” to reconnect without digital distractions. The experience not only improved their relationships but also reshaped their daily routines. What began as a desperate attempt to restore communication evolved into a valuable life lesson — that real connection is built through time, attention, and being truly present.

Question 31. According to paragraph 1, which activity was NOT mentioned as something the Carter family members were doing during dinner?

A. Browsing cooking ideas online

B. Catching up on office tasks

C. Watching a video clip

D. Learning to play an online game

Question 32. Helen introduced a tech-free month in order to _______.

A. bring the family back to in-person interaction

B. reduce the family's dependence on social media

C. limit her children’s screen time during mealtime

D. achieve a more noticeable work-life balance

Question 33. The word They in paragraph 2 refers to _______.

A. The Carters

B. Board games

C. Devices

D. The parents

Question 34. Ben and Lucy are mentioned in paragraph 2 to illustrate that _______.

A. they preferred spending time alone

B. they disagreed with their parents’ decision

C. giving up screens was initially far from easy

D. they were too dependent on text messages

Question 35. Which of the following best summarises paragraph 3?

A. Mark finally connected with his children, fostering laughter and shared stories during a period without technology.

B. The Carter family became closer after Lucy started baking and Ben learned to ride a bike during the tech-free month.

C. The Carter family gradually reconnected, spending more time together and sharing activities as they lived a tech-free month.

D. A tech-free month unsurprisingly caused the Carter family to talk more, share activities, and helped them understand each other better.

Question 36. The word genuine in paragraph 3 is CLOSEST in meaning to _______.

A. official

B. sincere

C. rare

D. valuable

Question 37. Where in the passage does the following sentence best fit?

Nevertheless, the parents stood firm.

A. [I]

B. [II]

C. [III]

D. [IV]

Question 38. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 4?

A. Were it not for the experience, their relationships wouldn’t have deepened, nor would their routines

have changed.

B. So impactful was the experience that it enhanced their bonds by transforming their day-to-day habits.

C. Their relationships grew stronger, and their everyday patterns evolved as a direct result of the experience.

D. Hardly had the experience ended when their connections strengthened and their schedules shifted dramatically.

Question 39. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

A. The tech-free month enabled the Carters to give up technology for better connection completely.

B. Helen appeared the least dependent on technology, which is why she easily gave it up first.

C. Genuine human connection is built on both effective communication and modern technology.

D. The Carters' relationship with technology evolved from compulsive use to mindful integration.

Question 40. Which of the following best summarises the passage?

A. The Carter family agreed to live a tech-free month, leading to initial resistance but ultimately resulting in improved communication and shared activities, fostering stronger bonds.

B. The Carters went a tech-free month, struggled at first, then reconnected through shared activities, and adopted new screen-time habits that lasted beyond the experiment.

C. After taking a break from screens for a month, the Carters found immediate joy in offline activities and chose to adopt healthier screen use to strengthen family bonds.

D. The Carters, after a month without devices, successfully reconnected, learned valuable lessons about true connection, and adopted new habits for balanced technology use.

Online scams have grown quickly in recent years and are now a serious danger to internet users around the world. Scammers use smart tricks to fool people, often by sending fake emails, messages, or creating websites that look real. Many people lose money, personal information, or even their identity because they believe these lies. As technology develops, scammers find new ways to use people’s trust and lack of knowledge.

One of the most common types of scams is phishing, where criminals act like banks, government offices, or famous companies. They send messages that seem urgent, asking people to give their passwords or payment details. Another popular scam is the romance scam, where criminals pretend to start a relationship online to trick people emotionally and take their money. These scams are hard to spot because they use strong feelings to confuse the victim.

Social media has made scams even easier to spread. Fake advertisements, false investments, and people pretending to be celebrities or influencers often lead others to send money or give away private information. Scammers usually focus on people who are older or going through money problems, using fear or fake promises to pressure them. Many fall for these scams because the offers sound amazing— but they are not real.

To stay safe, people should be careful with messages from unknown sources or deals that seem too good. Checking the sender, avoiding strange links, and using strong passwords can help protect personal information. Governments and companies should also help by improving online safety and teaching people how to spot scams. Even though scams keep changing, being careful and staying informed are still the best ways to stay safe.

Read the 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 31 to 40.

It was a quiet Sunday evening in a small town in the UK. The Carter family — parents Mark and Helen, and their two teenage children, Lucy and Ben — sat around the dinner table in silence. Despite being physically present, everyone’s attention was fixed on a screen: Mark was checking work emails, Helen was scrolling through recipes, Lucy was watching a video, and Ben was absorbed in a mobile game. The only sounds were the soft clinks of cutlery. Frustrated by the lack of interaction, Helen suddenly said, “Enough is enough — we’re going tech-free for a month.” [I]

The idea of giving up phones, tablets, and television seemed unimaginable. [II] All devices were placed in a locked drawer, and a new daily rhythm began. After dinner, the family played board games, went for walks, or read together instead of staring at screens. They even started a journal where each member could reflect on their day. The first few days were undeniably challenging. Ben struggled without his gaming console, while Lucy missed messaging her friends. [III] The absence of digital entertainment made the evenings feel long and unfamiliar.

However, as time passed, things began to change. Mealtimes became livelier, filled with genuine conversations and shared laughter. Lucy discovered an interest in baking and often helped Helen in the kitchen. Ben, now less restless, learned to ride his bike without training wheels. Even Mark, usually preoccupied with work, became more engaged with his children and said he finally felt connected to them.

By the end of the month, the Carters recognised how much they had gained from their decision. Although they gradually reintroduced technology, they were no longer controlled by it. [IV] Together, they established new boundaries: no devices at meals, limited screen time during the week, and regular “offline nights” to reconnect without digital distractions. The experience not only improved their relationships but also reshaped their daily routines. What began as a desperate attempt to restore communication evolved into a valuable life lesson — that real connection is built through time, attention, and being truly present.

C. The Carter family gradually reconnected, spending more time together and sharing activities as they lived a tech-free month.
