Viet Nam Likely to Face Extreme Weather Conditions by 2050
Viet Nam is likely to continue facing extreme weather conditions such as higher
temperatures, lower summer rainfalls, stronger storms, and rising sea levels from now to
2050. Temperatures in northern Viet Nam will rise by between 0.83 degrees Celsius by 2050
and continue its uptrend during the late 21st century. Summer rainfall will decline in most
areas. Meanwhile, storms may become rarer but fiercer, causing possible flash floods and
landslides in flood-prone areas o f northern mountainous, central and central highland
provinces. The forecasts suggest sea level rises o f 100mm-400mm along the entire
Vietnamese coast by the end of the 21st century, affecting marine biodiversity and coastal
communities. The experts emphasize the unpredictability of climate change and its potential
impacts to create a variety o f dangerous extreme weather events in the future.
To raise the public awareness of climate change impacts, the Vietnamese government
urges concerned agencies to work together on devising worst-case scenario models and
responses by 2020 and calls on international experts to further support Viet Nam in climate
change adaptation. Climate change is a real threat to Viet Nam ’s socio-economic
development. If sea levels rose one meter, five percent o f the country’s land, eleven percent of
its population and seven percent o f its farmland would be affected.

V II)-R ead the passage, and choose the correct answ er A, B, C o r D for each question.
Global wanning and cooling have occurred naturally throughout history. But in the last
200 years, humans’ uses of fossil fuels and clear cutting o f forests have increased the amount
o f carbon dioxide and other gases in the atmosphere. These gases trap some o f the radiation
from the sun which then increases the Earth’s temperature. Given the current state of
environmental pollution caused by human activities, scientists believe the average
temperature o f the earth may increase 1-2 degrees Celsius which put simply, means some
places will get much hotter and some much colder. At the same time, this overall warming
effect means more frequent and more intense weather systems, especially in terms of flooding
and drought. '
Viet Nam is one o f the most vulnerable environments
due to its location on the planet. It is already subject to
some of the earth’s most powerful weather systems and the
increased frequency and intensity o f storms will affect it
often and directly, especially in coastal areas where most
people live.
Various estimates have been made as to the possible impacts. The most directly affected
sector will be agriculture, which is very sensitive to flooding and the effects of extreme
weather.
Viet Nam has the advantage o f coming relatively late into the industrialization,
urbanization, and m odernization process. This means it can avoid many o f the mistakes made
by wealthier industrial countries. For example, wireless communication networks can be built
138 - Liiu Hoang Trl

from the start rather than installing lines that can easily be destroyed in extreme weather.
Cities can be designed and located in less vulnerable locations. Climate-friendly building
codes and standards can be created that are both more efficient and less prone to heat stress,
wind damage, and flooding. Climate friendly transport systems, especially public transport,
can be adopted.
36. The causes of global warming come from ______ .
A. the rise in the radiation from the sun
B. human activities that result in pollution
C. the difference in temperatures among regions
D. the increase in the average temperature of the earth
37. All o f the following may result in global warming EX CEPT______ .
A. more intense weather systems
B. humans’ uses o f fossil fuels
C. clear cutting o f forests
D. the increasing greenhouse gas emissions
38. Coastal areas in Viet Nam are often and directly affected b y ______ .
A. its vulnerable location on the planet
B. subject to the earth’s most powerful weather systems
C. storms with increased frequency and power
D. the overpopulation in coastal areas
39. In preparing for climate change, Viet Nam should take all of the following measures
EX CEPT______ .
A. developing wireless communication networks
B. setting climate-friendly building codes and standards
C. adopting public transport systems
D. coming late into the modernization process

C. READING
I)-R ead the passage about further and higher education, and then answer the questions.
The difference between higher and further
education can be a common cause o f confusion.
Further education is used to describe the education
that occurs following compulsory post-16
secondary education, which is usually distinct from
that offered in universities (higher education). It
includes a few different levels such as A-Levels
and Higher National Diplomas. Foundation Degrees are also a type o f further education and
take 2 years to complete compared with the 3-4 years of most bachelor’s degrees which are
offered by both universities and colleges. Sometimes it is possible to extend a Foundation
Degree to a bachelor’s degree, with one year or more o f extra study.
Further education is usually taught in the sixth-form college part o f a school or in
independent further education colleges, as well as in other work-based, adult and community
learning institutions. In the United States, further education is sometimes referred to as
continuing education.
Higher education primarily describes post-18 learning that takes place at universities, as
well as other colleges and institutions that award academic degrees, and professional
qualifications. While higher education is the common name in the UK and Ireland, it is also
known as post-secondary, tertiary and third level education.

II)-Read the passage about studying abroad for Vietnamese students, and then answer
the questions.
Viet Nam has a growing youth population, and this together with an increasing
prosperous middle class means that demand for university education is greater than ever
before. A decade ago fewer than 10,000 Vietnamese families could afford to send their child
abroad to study. Today there are more than 100,000 Vietnamese international students around
the world, most o f whom are funded by their parents.
The top destinations for Vietnamese students are Australia, the US, China, Singapore and
the UK. English has become the dominant foreign language in Vietnam, with 98% of students
choosing to study it over French, Japanese and German. So many students seek English-
speaking countries for their higher education.
Australia is the destination of choice because Australian qualifications are recognised
across the world, and transferable to Vietnamese qualifications, and many Australian
universities offer scholarships to international students. Living costs in Australia compare
favourably with the United States and UK, and it is closer to Viet Nam than other English-
speaking countries, making visits home easier.
The USA has the second largest number o f Vietnamese students. The majority of
Vietnamese students, both at home and abroad, consider the American education the best in
the world. They believe that the USA is the most scientifically and technologically advanced
country in the world. Four out of 10 Vietnamese students in the US are studying business
administration, and finance. Engineering, maths, computer science, and health professions are
also common choices.

III)-Read the passage about international students in Viet Nam, and then answer the
questions.
Viet Nam: Struggling to attract international students
Viet Nam is changing university enrolment requirements to make it easier for foreign
students to study at its universities. Previously, foreign students were required to take
university entrance examinations in Vietnamese, making it difficult if not almost impossible
for non-Vietnamese-speaking foreign students to apply.
International student enrolment is one of the criteria to rank Vietnamese universities. Attracting
foreign students is also a way for Vietnam to promote Vietnam's education to the world.
The leading universities in Viet Nam enrol
undergraduate and graduate international students
every year. M ost are from the Asia Pacific region
including China, Japan, Korea, Australia, Laos,
Cambodia and Thailand, while a few come from the
United States and Europe. Most o f the international
students study Vietnamese studies, Vietnamese
literature or South East Asian studies, which makes
Viet Nam the best destination for them.
The leading institutions such as Viet Nam National Universities in Ha Noi and Ho Chi
Mirth City, which have a tradition o f hosting international students, run preparatory courses in
Vietnamese for foreign students. However, it's widely recognized that if these universities do
not have programmes taught in English, they have a challenge to enrol international students.
1. Why was it very difficult for foreign students to study at Vietnamese universities?
2. What is the role o f international student enrolment for Vietnamese universities?
3. Where do most international students in Viet Nam come from?
4. What majors do they study?
5. What should the leading Vietnamese universities do to attract more international students?

IV )-Read the text about the IB and A-levei program m es, and then decide w hether the
statem ents are tru e (T), false (F) or not given (NG).
Students in Singapore have the option of sitting for the Singapore-Cambridge A-level
exam, which is a different version o f the international A-level examination. Has the
International Baccalaureate (IB) better than the A-levels in terms of preparing a student to
enter a recognized and prestigious university?
It really depends on the student’s academic strengths. The IB is more about a
comprehensive educational style, while the A-levels puts more emphasis on individual subject
knowledge. An IB student must take six subjects, three at higher level and three at standard,
which must include maths, a science, English, and at least one foreign language, while A-
levels with three subjects studied in depth. So if words aren’t the student’s strength, then the
language component o f the IB (including the compulsory 4000-word essay) may pull the
student’s overall IB score down.
On the other hand, if the student is well-rounded and copes confidently with Arts subjects
as well as Maths and Science, then the IB programme may be ideal for the learner. Experts
believe the A-levels give a student depth o f knowledge, while the IB gives a broad education.
They also believe that the IB may prepare a child better for facing the challenges o f a
university education.
if parents wonder if the IB would suit their child, they should talk to the teachers and
their child before coming to an educated and well-informed decision.

If you want to go to a university, you usually
apply during your last year at school, when you are
17-18. You can apply to study at any university in
Britain and most people choose a university that is
not in their own town. So, university students
usually live away from home. Students get a grant
from the government to study. At the beginning of
your last year at school, you receive an application
form. On this form you choose up to five
universities that you would like to go to. The form
is sent to those universities with information from
your school about you and your academic record. If the universities are interested in your
application, they will ask you to attend an interview. If they are still interested after the
interview, they will offer you a place.
Any offer, however, is only conditional at this stage. Applications and interviews take
place several months before students do their A-level examinations. These are the exams that
you do at the end of your time at school. So, when a university makes an offer, it will tell you
the minimum grades that you will have to get when you do your A-level exams. If you don’t
obtain those grades, then, you will not be able to get the place. It will be offered to someone
else and you must apply again to another university. You don’t have to accept your place
immediately. Some students don’t want to go straight from school to university. So, after they
have taken their A-level, they take a year out to work or travel.

C. studying at a university D. what to do after leaving school

VII)-Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
Distant education is a rapidly developing approach to instructions throughout the
business. The approach has been widely used by business, industrial, and medical
organizations. For many years, doctors, veterinarians, pharmacists, engineers, and lawyers
have used it to continue their professional education. Recently, academic instructions have
been using distant education to reach a more diverse and geographically disperse audience not
accessible through traditional classroom instructions.
The distinguishing characteristics of distant education is the separation of the instructor
and students during the learning process. The communication of the subject matter is
primarily to individuals rather than groups. As a consequence, the course content must be
delivered by instructional media.
The media may be primarily printed, as in the case o f traditional correspondence course.
Audiocassettes, videotapes, videodiscs, computer-based instructions, and interactive video
courses can be sent to individual students. In addition, radio, broadcast television, telelectures,
and teleconferences are utilized for “live” distant education. The latter two delivery systems
allow for interactive instructions between the instructor and students.
36. “Distant education is a rapidly developing approach to instructions throughout the
business” m eans______ .
A. distant education is a form o f the on-the-job business training
B. distant education develops rapidly into an approach to give instructions throughout business
C. on-the-job training is rapidly developed for business students
D. distant education is another form of traditional classroom instructions throughout business
37. The individuals who take part in distant education are often______ .
A. too busy to participate in the evening classes
B. unable to access classroom-based education
C. able to participate in classroom-based in their free time
D. too busy to participate computer-based education
38. The striking characteristic o f distant education is th a t______ .

B. the instructors shouldn’t meet their students during the training
C. the cooperation between the instructor and the students during the learning process is
face-to-face communication
D. the instructor has no contact with the students during the learning process
39. The course content must be delivered______ .
A. by express mail

Tiie Area off ©id Canned Stones in Sa Pa
The area o f old carved stones in Sa Pa lies mainly in the Muong Hoa Valley, where there
are settlements of ethnic minority people in Sa Pa District, Lao Cai Province. Carved stones
here have been discovered since a long time ago. In 1925, a French scholar coming here
discovered more than 30 pieces o f stone that had been carved with various images, scattered
along the Hoa Spring bank. Later, other scientists have come here to study the carved pieces
o f stone. Until now, researchers have discovered more than 200 pieces o f stone carved with
different images, among them are the big ones which have complicated designs.
The most common patterns are images o f mountains, hills and fields. In some pieces o f
stone, we can find images of houses, following the pattern of house on stilts with the form o f
boat, with curved roof, reminding the image o f houses on the Dong Son bronze drums.
Particularly, a number o f researchers have raised the hypothesis o f traces o f 3 kinds o f
writing system, following the pattern of pictorial writing with straight and curved lines. There
are writing systems almost similar to the writing systems found on amulets of Tay ethnic
group and Dao ethnic group, but they are not Tay characters. The discovery of the 3 above
kinds o f writing system on carved pieces o f stone makes more complicated the determination
o f the author o f those works. Maybe those authors belong to many different ethnic minorities
and have achieved their works in different times.
There are opinions underlining that those pieces
of stone have been carved by the old Viet people, or
ethnic groups near to the old Viet people. At present,
there remain a number of legends about the "Father
piece" and "Mother piece" of stone related to
inhabitants o f the areas lying at the mountain foot
coming here to find new settlements. However, the
problem o f determination of the real authors o f those
works is still to be solved.

III)-Read the passage about the Complex of Yen Tu Monuments and Landscape, and
then answer the questions.
The Com plex of Yen Tu Monuments and Landscape
The Complex o f Yen Tu Monuments and Landscape is located on the Dong Trieu
Range, at the intersection o f two provinces: Quang Ninh and Bac Giang. Relics on and
excavated under the ground in the Complex of Yen Tu Monuments and Landscape have
proved a long history o f cultural exchanges in the country. The heritage site, with dozens o f
pagodas, towers and small temples, and thousands o f antiquities - especially old books,
preserves spiritual values o f True Lam Zen Buddhism and the cultural traces o f the Dai Viet
civilization. The values o f True Lam Zen Buddhism and Dai Viet culture have been kept
throughout the history o f Viet Nam, promoted to other countries in the world by generations
o f Zen masters and w ill be retained in the future.
True Lam is a pure Vietnamese Zen Buddhism
which focuses on inner feelings but at the same time
enters into life w ith a forgiveness approach. True
Lam aims to connect religion to life in a positive way
and builds a close link to true patriotism. King Tran
Nhan Tong, the founder o f True Lam, was the one
who collected a lot o f older books to guide Buddhists
and followers of True Lam Zen Buddhism on how to
practise their religion and become good people.
Yen Tu is thought o f as a natural ecological
museum due to its rich bio-diversity. The natural landscape o f this place met the requirements
o f a Buddhism center, which was why it was chosen by Vietnamese Buddhism followers as a
place to come and build small temples covered with grass, to practice their religion.
1. What has proved that Yen Tu has a long history o f cultural exchanges in the country?
2. W hat attractions can visitors see at Yen Tu?
3. What does the heritage site preserve?

My Son Sanctuary
Hidden away in the tropical forest near the port city o f Da Nang and the very popular
World Heritage town o f Hoi An is the Champa civilization’s sacred valley o f My Son, or
“Beautiful Mountain”. I joined the full day package tour from Hoi An, which was quite very
convenient as it included all transportation, ticket fee, lunch and guide. I arrived in My Son
around 10 o ’clock. After walking for a while, I found the complex of tourist facilities, and one
o f them is the performance hall. Our guide insisted us keeping going into the forest. Within
few minutes, I started to see the complex o f ancient Hindu temples made from brick.
At first, the dilapidated state of the
complex was quite shocking, and almost
nothing was left to see. I decided to
discover the site by myself, and I started to
be impressed by the amazing quality o f
brick carving details. The image of
Hinduism guardians and angels are truly
beautiful and reminded me about Angkor
in Cambodia. For me, My Son is the great
evidence o f how Southern Indian art
expanded to Southeast Asia since ancient Cham people came from Java where Indian art
flourished, and later expand to modem day Viet Nam and later Cambodia and Thailand. The
construction method o f My Son is also very unique: Cham people built a whole block of
bricks then burned them to make the whole brick block very solid and strong then chiseled
into the temple. I walked around the complex many times to enjoy its intricate motifs until the
guide informed that there are more complex to see.
I went to see another complex, this one is located on the hill and recently partial rebuilt
by a group o f Italian archaeologists, and they are planning to rebuild more, which is a very
good news for My Son preservation. The rebuilt complex is very lovely and illustrates the
original layout very well even though the new brick really contrasts with the old ones. After
that, the guide took me back to the bus and back to Hoi An, it was exactly 3 hours inside My
Son. Despite the bad state of preservation, 1 really enjoyed my visit to My Son, the place has
exceeded my expectation and even small complex can clearly show its value as a bridge of
cultural exchange between India - Java and mainland Southeast Asia.

Ha Long Bay
Ha Long Bay is a group o f offshore islands that is the best example of marine invaded
limestone region in the world. The Bay holds over 1,600 islands and islets. There are caves
and grottoes, with stalactites and stalagmites. Its limestone pillars are a unique natural feature
o f great scenic beauty and biological interest. The great extent and the richness o f its forms
sets it apart from many other sites.
Ha Long Bay is an extremely popular
destination both for foreigners and
Vietnamese: already in the early 1990s it saw
over 1 million visitors a year. It is unlikely
that the number has decreased over the years
- so there will always be about 3,000 other
people in the Bay at the same time as you!
The natural beauty of the Bay lay hidden today under a very common fog. As I had
already seen the similar karst landscape in China a couple o f years before, I certainly said that
I was blown away by the beauty of Ha Long Bay. We went onto one o f the islands to visit the
Surprising Cave - an indeed surprisingly big and beautiful cave with three hollow chambers.
We saw some monkeys here too, just outside the cave exit.

Hoi An Ancient Town
Arriving in Hoi An around 9 p.m., I was really relieved when I discovered that the whole
town was peacefully quiet, something I am really concerned that Hoi An at night may become
crazy club scenes. In the next morning, I woke up very early, and walked around the town
admiring waterfront areas where local fishermen were ready to go out for day fishing, the
very lively market and extremely charming and empty streets. Since there was no tourist, only
locals then and the souvenir shops were still close, I felt that Hoi An at that moment was an
extremely gorgeous place to visit.
The yellowish Chinese styled houses
along the street together with decorative
bushes o f bougainvillea flower are lovely
sights and very photogenic. The layout of
houses was claimed to be unique for not
strictly complied with Feng Shui but for
benefit o f better ventilation in tropical region.
Another thing that I am really impressed is the
preservation o f thẹ whole town which is very
amazing and very authentic, which is a thing
that cannot be found in Melaka, Singapore or
Macao. The Japanese Bridge is maybe the only sight that I found very interesting for its
stories that the Japanese built this bridge in order to calm evil serpent spirit “Namazu” that
caused earthquake in very faraway Japan since they believe Hoi An is located on the back of
the serpent. I strangely found that there are still many nice temples, especially the one
dedicate to Confucius which has more unique and interesting Vietnamese elements more than
the preserved ones in the core zone.
I also noted that Hoi An is not only popular with European tourists but also Korean,
Japanese, Australian and New Zealander. After sunset, the whole town waterfront becomes a
night market with many local foods. And at that time Hoi An is very charming with hundreds
o f paper and silk lanterns. Hoi An at night seems to be a very popular place for pre-wedding
photo shooting, as I saw many Vietnamese couples in their traditional dresses with their
photographer teams everywhere especially around the Japanese Bridge, so a great place to see
local contemporary wedding cultures.
All in all, I really enjoyed my time in Hoi An for its lovely atmosphere and nice townscape.

III)-Read the passage, and then decide w hether the statements are true (T) or false (F).
The cities o f the future will see a large number o f intelligent homes that can interact with
their owners. In fact, things that were earlier considered science fiction are already coming to
life in smart cities such as Masdar in the United Arab Emirates, where an automated
underground transport network fully fuelled by solar power is already running circuits.
With smart technology, the possibility of
having huge savings on electricity and power is
within our reach. Sensors are being developed so
that street lights o f the future will switch on only
when you are close by. The smart technology in
self-driven cars will enable you to save on gas and
other non-renewable energy sources. In fact, smart
cities will aim to neutralize the use o f fossil fuels
completely.
The cities o f the future will have to adapt
quickly to rapid technological advancements in IT
and engineering. The gap between technological leaps is going to decrease over time.
Technology will help bridge the current gap between the government and public in the cities
of the future, given that IT and digitization will make these cities more open and social.
Another thing that we can all agree on is that the cost of building in these smart cities Is
going to be considerable. A c estimate can be derived based on the latest smart city
developments in India. With the booming population, the Indian Prime Minister Narendra
Modi is pushing to attract investments to fuel rapid development projects in the country.

IV)-Read the passage about green cities, and then answer the questions.
What makes a city green? Factors such as recycling, renewable energy, transportation
options, building construction, air quality and emissions make green cities great. Here are
some cities that are doing their part to lead US on the global path to a greener future.
Working towards the goal of being the first carbon-
neutral capital before 2025, Copenhagen has made a lot
o f necessary changes. Lots of electric and manual bikes,
organic food, clean water, sustainable buildings and
hotels, lots o f green space and fewer cars are just a few
o f the ways that help Copenhagen stand at the top of the
green cities list.
As the U K ’s 8th biggest city, and with a steadily growing economy, Bristol is set on
making its mark, not only in the UK, but in Europe as well. The next five years will see a
huge focus on transportation and renewable energy in the city, as well as a goal o f doubling
the number o f cyclists in that time as well. Bristol is becoming a hub for jobs in low carbon
sectors.
Vancouver is pleasant for so many reasons - it’s mild
and it leads the way for forward thinking and environmental
awareness in North America. Residents are very fond of
walking and cycling, and government laws have been
designed with greenness in mind. It’s often considered to be
one o f the most liveable cities in the world, and that isn’t
enough, it’s working towards being powered entirely by
renewable energy by the year 2050.

W hat Life Will Be Like In 2 0 5 0
I find it absolutely fascinating thinking about the future, as technology is rapidly
advancing and in 40 years’ time, who knows what we’ll be able to do with it. Scientists have
recently predicted that by 2050 the population o f the world will be over ten billion and
technology will have advanced so greatly that we will have far more information about all
known diseases (and possibly cures), we will all be living in eco houses and will no longer
face high electricity bills and we may even be able to take a holiday to Mars.
Our daily lives w ill definitely be filled with all kinds of new technologies that help us do
the things we hate nowadays. House Robo’s will be a likely feature in all homes and will help
run the family home, take out the rubbish, prepare food and hoover the house from top to
bottom. Our kitchen gadgets (such as your fridge, cooker, microwave and dishwasher) will
also be ‘robotic’ and will email or text us, the users, when a food item has gone out o f date or
has been used up. Similarly, the fridge has a built-in camera so that when you are at the
supermarket, you can log in to your fridge and check what you need to stock up on.
It is predicted that by 2050 we will all have ‘weekly digital health checks’ in our homes,
which run sensors over our bodies to check for signs o f ill health and any abnormalities.
Conditions can instantly be recognised by the ‘virtual doctor’ inside the health machine and
treated immediately, and if you need a prescription - it will be ordered and sent out
automatically. If the digital health check picks up on a person being overweight, they will
send a signal to the domestic house computer to modify their diet and book in for gym
sessions. Because of all this immediate treatment, people will live far longer and won’t be
wiped out by disease or forms of cancer. Medical conditions that are considered rare today
will be far more known about and will be able to be cured quickly and efficiently.

Dear Ha,
I’ve received your email, and now I have time to give you some ideas about smart cities in
India, especially New Delhi - my hometown.
By 2050, (1) ________________________________________________________________,
and India will not be the exception. Smart cities are required (2)_____________________ _____
The main aim o f a smart city is “housing for all”. More than 70% of the Indian population
would be living in cities by 2050. Due to the rising urbanization, a better standard o f living is
required. (3)_____________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________ . A smart city is an economy
which provides various opportunities and advantages to its residents. India is expanding
rapidly and the emergence o f smart city can provide employment for many. (4)____________
In a smart city, a lot of people would not be able to afford a place in smart city as it would be
very costly. Thus, people from middle class and poor section of the society won't be able to
enjoy the benefits o f a smart city. Only a certain part o f New Delhi would be utilized for
constructing a smart city, whereas the other part o f the city would be still under the shadow of
poverty. (5)_______________________________________________________________________
I hope you’ll have a clear picture of smart cities in India by 2050. What will Viet Nam’s
capital city look like in the future? I’m looking forward to your reply.

Predictions about the Cities of the Future
Cities are built to survive and prosper. Over the years, we have learned to transform our
surroundings according to our needs. We have cut through mountains to make more land and
created artificial islands to make skyscrapers. City planning, as an organized profession, has
existed for less than a century. However, a considerable amount o f evidence (both
archaeological and historical) proves the existence o f fully planned cities in ancient times.
Over the years, humans have made some mistakes in terms o f using an excessive amount of
resources for cities. This gives rise to the question o f how sustainable the cities o f the future
would be.
We might be looking at smart cities in which street lights would only switch on when you
are close by and traffic light would be eliminated by smart driving. The cities o f the future
would try to save our resources rather than deplete them.
An example o f an advanced city is Kansas. Plans are in place to make Kansas a smart
futuristic city in the future. Planners are considering introducing sensors to monitor the water
mains. Warning would be issued to city officials when the infrastructure requires repair or
replacement. In this way, the city would never be at risk of having broken pipes.
While the idea sounds fantastic, a large amount o f rational critique has called this plan an
oversold dream. Amy Glasmier is an urban planning professor at MIT. She is a smart city
skeptic who believes that all the research and talk is great but gravely oversold.

A. to have become a profession for about a hundred years
B. to have existed professionally since ancient times
c. to have come into existence to transform nature
D. to make more land and created artificial islands to make skyscrapers
37. The most important task in building i s ______ .
A. to use an excessive amount of resources for cities
B. to raise the question about the future
c. to make cities in the future sustainable
D. to make future cities more organized

A. street lights automatically switch on when necessary
B. fraffic light w ould be controlled by smart driving

C. smart driving wouldn’t need traffic light

A. the infrastructure requires no repair or replacement
B. the city will never have broken water pipes

V II)-R ead the passage, and choose the correct answ er A, B, C or D for each question.
Today’s urban cities are practically bursting at the seams. According to research from the
United Nations, 54 percent of the world’s population lives in urban areas, a percentage that is
expected to increase to over 66 percent by 2050. In fact, India alone is projected to add 404
million urban dwellers to its population by 2050.
This rapid growth o f the urban population has
caused daunting problems for city planners, such as
overcrowded roads, excessive energy consumption
and unemployment. Therefore, to build more
sustainable cities and accommodate the growing
number of residents, many city leaders are turning to
the Internet of Things (loT).
The IoT has forever changed the way urban cities
operate. Cities that were once detached and
inaccessible are now intelligent and highly connected.
From Amsterdam to Seoul, cities are launching smart city projects to help improve quality of
life for residents and better support the environment. According to research from IHS
Technology, there will be at least 88 smart cities globally by 2025, up from 21 in 2013.
San Francisco, for example, provides more than
100 charging stations in various locations to promote the
use o f hybrid and electric cars to reduce harmful
greenhouse gas emissions. Copenhagen is also taking
advantage o f the IoT to improve environmental
protection and reduce road traffic by developing smart
bikes equipped with sensors that generate data on air
contamination and traffic congestion.
The possibilities afforded by the IoT are endless; however, designing smart cities requires
comprehensive technology infrastructure that is capable of capturing and processing large
amounts of data quickly and securely - which is where 4G LTE comes into play.
The future looks bright for urban cities. Soon they will be able to do things that only sci-
fi enthusiasts could dream of before, like monitoring bridge conditions using intelligent
sensors and conserving energy by automatically dimming street lights when no one is around.

E . What are the health benefits of tai chi?
F . Are there different styles of tai chi?
G . Can tai chi help to prevent falls?
H . What's the basic technique?
1. ___________________________________ _______________ ____

It combines deep breathing and relaxation with slow and gentle movements. Originally
developed as a martial art in the 13th century in China, it is today practised around the
world as a health-promoting exercise.
2. ______________________________________________________
Yes, such as yang, chen and wu. Some teachers often practise a combination o f styles. The
main differences between the different tai chi styles are in the speed o f movement and the
way the body holds the postures.
3.
Tai chi is characterised by its slow, graceful, continuous movements that are gentle on the
joints and muscles. Done correctly, you'll find that the tai chi poses flow smoothly from
one into another.
4. _______________________________________________________
Studies have shown that tai chi can help people aged 65 and over to reduce stress,
improve balance and general mobility, and increase muscle strength in the legs.
5 . _______________________________________________________
Tai chi is essentially a gentle activity that is unlikely to cause injury if done correctly. The
exercises involve lots o f flowing, easy movements that don’t stress the joints or muscles.
6. ______________________________________________________
Some research suggests that tai chi can reduce the risk o f falls among older adults who are
at increased risk. However, more research is needed.

7. _______________________________________________________
No, tai chi is for everyone. It is ideal for inactive older people wanting to raise their
activity levels gently and gradually.
8. _______________________________________________________
It’s a good idea to learn the basics o f tai chi from an instructor to make sure your style is
correct, effective and won't cause injury. You can consider using a book or DVD once
you’re familiar with the poses.
II)-Read the passage, and then decide w hether the statements are true (T) or false (F).
No pain, big gains
In China, it is believed that tai chi can delay ageing and prolong life, increase flexibility,
strengthen muscles and tendons, and aid in the treatment o f heart disease, high blood pressure,
arthritis, skin diseases, depression, cancer, and many other diseases.
Most o f the research on tai chi has been done in
older individuals in the area o f balance and
fall prevention. This area o f research is important
because fall-related injuries are the leading cause of
death from injury and disability among older adults.
Because tai chi movements are slow and deliberate with
shifts of body weight from one leg to the other in
coordination with upper body movements, it challenges
balance and many have long assumed it helps improve
balance and reduce fall frequency.
In a similar tai chi study o f older adults, 54% of the subjects who practised tai chi
attributed their improved sense o f confidence to improved balance. One study looked at adults
in their 60s and 70s who practised tai chi three times a week for 12 weeks (60-minute
classes). After just six weeks, statistically significant improvements were observed in balance,
muscular strength, endurance, and flexibility measures. Improvements in each o f these areas
increased further after another 12 weeks.
The demands o f living are stressful for adults of all ages. Although one cannot directly
point to studies showing a reduction in stress from practising tai chi, the breathing,
movement, and m ental concentration required of individuals who practise tai chi may be just
the distraction you need from your hectic lifestyle.

Having a healthy lifestyle is not just about eating healthily and exercising. It often refers
to having a balance between work and life.
To start with, make sure you get plenty o f sleep. Some research suggests that teenagers
need more sleep than adults, however, it's often the case that they get less than they need.
W ith homework and social obligations, you can be staying up late but still have to get up
early to get to classes, work or other activities. To function properly, your body and mind
need a minimum o f eight hours of sleep each night.
Eating a well-balanced diet can sound
much easier than it is. A lot o f people are
really conscious about what they eat, and
try and make healthy choices. If you think
you have too much junk food and want to
BMl— — ma ke some changes to your diet, don't try
and eliminate all junk food. You should drink plenty of water, eat a balance of protein, whole
grains, fruit and vegetables daily, and don’t skip breakfast - eat something for breakfast every
day.
Exercising regularly is part of having a healthy lifestyle. Physical activity helps build a
strong body and mind. Doing physical activity releases endorphins, which are a chemical your
body produces, which gives you a good feeling. Physical activity is also an effective way to
manage moods and is a really good lifestyle choice to improve your overall well-being.
^ Having friends and family that you can confide in is really important. To be a healthy
person, you need to have people around you that you can talk to about what's happening to
you, rather than dealing with them alone.
Another important part of having a healthy lifestyle is remembering to "play". Just taking
time to laugh, have fun and being around people who make you feel good is part o f having
balance in your life.
Take time to learn about what makes you feel good and remember to include some o f
those things in your day.

Discover how laughter can work for you!
Y ou’ve probably heard the expression “Laughter is
the best medicine” . Scientists and medical doctors
now agree that laughter can help people to deal with
stress and anger. Research has shown that people who
feel happy and relaxed are healthier and have better
relationships.
Laughter Yoga is a series o f exercises. Laughter Yoga
teaches you to laugh for no reason. You don’t have to
have a sense o f humour, or understand funny jokes.
You just have to laugh.
When you do Laughter Yoga in a group, you laugh and do yoga breathing, so that you
increase the amount of oxygen in your body. Soon the laughter exercises turn into real
laughter. A fter a laughter yoga class, you feel calm and relaxed, but also full o f energy and
happy.

Laughter Yoga was developed by Dr. Kataria, a doctor from India. Laughter Yoga classes
started in Mumbai in 1995 with just five people, and now there are over 6,000 laughter clubs
in sixty different countries.
Julie Whitehead was one o f the first people in the UK to become a Laughter Yoga teacher
with Dr. Kataria. She says, “Yoga has been a part o f my life for thirty years, but in 2002 my
life changed when I discovered Laughter Yoga. I am particularly interested in health and well
being.”
She is a member o f Laughter Network, a group o f professionals who want to bring more
laughter, health, and happiness into people’s lives. They run Laughter Yoga classes and
workshops in the UK, and Julie runs Laughter Yoga holidays in Turkey, Egypt, Spain, and
Morocco.

Laughing is good for the body and the mind. When we laugh, we breathe more oxygen into
our body, which helps to keep us healthy. Endorphins, or happy chemicals, are released in the

body, and you feel more relaxed and happy. Laughter also brings people together to share
some fun.
Companies who have run Laughter Yoga workshops find that they have advantages for both
employers and employees. People who are happy at work are more hard-working and make
more money for the company. Also, people who laugh together communicate more
successfully. In general, people do better at work when they feel happy and relaxed.
If you’re not sure about Laughter Yoga, remember this, children laugh 300-400 times a day,
but adults only laugh around fifteen times a day.
Get more laughter in your life - you can feel the change in you, and when you change, the
world changes. Laughter is really the best medicine.

Health Benefits of Yoga
Yoga is a healthy lifestyle. One of the benefits o f yoga is that you can choose a yoga
style that is suitable for your lifestyle, such as hot yoga, power yoga, relaxation yoga, etc. If
you are a yoga beginner, Hatha Yoga, which focuses on basic postures at a comfortable pace,
would be great for you. If you want to increase strength through using more o f your own
body’s resistance, Power Yoga may be right for you. Whether you prefer you're at home, in a
private session, watching a DVD or at a studio or gym, there are a huge variety o f options
available to suit your goals and needs.
Improved flexibility is one o f the first and most
obvious benefits o f yoga. During your first class, you
probably w on’t be able to touch your toes. But if you stick
with it, you’ll notice a gradual loosening, and eventually,
seemingly impossible poses will become possible. Each of
the yoga poses is built to reinforce the muscles around the
spine, the very center o f your body, which is the core from
which everything else operates. When the core is working
properly, posture is improved, thus alleviating back,
shoulder, and neck pain.
Strong muscles do more than look good. They also
protect us from conditions like arthritis and back pain, and
help prevent falls in elderly people. And when you build strength through yoga, you balance it
with flexibility. If you just went to the gym and lifted weights, you might build strength at the
expense of flexibility.
Yoga gets your blood flowing. More specifically, the relaxation exercises you learn in
yoga can help your circulation, especially in your hands and feet. Yoga also gets more oxygen
to your cells, which function better as a result. Twisting poses are thought to wring out venous
blood from internal organs and allow oxygenated blood to flow in once the twist is released.
Many studies found that a consistent yoga practice improved depression and led to
greater levels of happiness and better immune function.

A. we can watch a DVD at a studio or gym and follow it
B. we can choose a yoga style that is suitable for our lifestyle
C. we can choose Hatha Yoga to focus on basic postures or to increase strength

shampoo instead o f a shampoo designed for oily hair.
B. Curly and dry hair types are usually more fragile than straight hair, so you'll need to
be especially careful about using heat styling products.
C. Some people only need to wash their hair once a week - and that's fine.
D. Some o f you find that your hair gets oily in your teen years due to hormone changes
during puberty, producing more oil than needed.
E. It's also a good idea to wear a hat to protect your hair when you're outdoors.
F. That's why using a hair dryer on very wet hair can damage it.
Mai: Hello, Ms Lee. Can you help me to take better care of my hair? Is it the same
way o f taking care o f it?
Ms Lee: I’m willing to, Mai. How you take care of your hair depends on the type of hair
you have, your lifestyle and how you style your hair.
Mai: So people with dry, curly hair have different hair care needs than people with
straight, fine hair.
Ms Lee: You’re right. But all hair needs to be treated gently, especially when it's wet. Wet
hair can stretch, making it more vulnerable to breakage. (41)_______________
Mai: I see. I feel some change in my hair: it becomes oily. Is there something wrong

Acupuncture
Acupuncture involves the insertion of very thin needles through the patient's skin at
specific points on the body, and the needles are inserted to various depths. The medical
community is not in conclusive agreement about how acupuncture works scientifically.
However, we know that it does have some therapeutic benefits, including pain relief.
According to WHO, acupuncture is effective for treating 28 conditions, while evidence
indicates it may have an effective therapeutic value for many more. People with tension,
headaches or migraines may find acupuncture to be very effective in alleviating their symptoms.
Another study found that twice weekly acupuncture treatments relieve debilitating symptoms of
zerostomia - severe dry mouth - among patients treated with head and neck cancer.
Traditional Chinese medicine explains that health is the result o f a harmonious balance of
the complementary extremes of yin and yang o f the life force known as chi or qi. Qi is said to
flow through pathways in the human body. Through 350 acupuncture points in the body, these
pathways and energy flows may be accessed. Illness is said to be the consequence o f an
imbalance o f the forces. If needles are inserted into these points with appropriate
combinations, it is said that the energy flow can be brought back into proper balance.
In Western societies and several other parts of the world, acupuncture is explained,
including concepts o f neuroscience. Acupuncture points are seen by Western practitioners as
places where nerves, muscles and connective tissue can be stimulated. Acupuncture
practitioners say that the stimulation increases blood flow while at the same time triggering
the activity of our own body's natural painkillers.
