require a background score, it must include some sound effects or else it would be not so good an experience

There are many mistakes that people make when writing their resume (CV) or completing a jobapplication Here are some of the most common and most serious
The biggest problem is perhaps listing the duties for which you were responsible in a past position: allthis tells your potential employers is what you were supposed to do They do not necessarily know the specific
skills you used in executing them, nor do they know what results you achieved - both of which are essential.
In short, they won’t know if you were the best, the worst or just average in your position
Trang 16The more concrete information you can include, the better As far as possible, provide measurements of
what you accomplished If any innovations you introduced saved the organization money, how much did theysave? If you found a way of increasing productivity, by what percentage did you increase it?
Writing what you are trying to achieve in life - your objective - is a waste of space It tells the employerwhat you are interested in Do you really think that employers care what you want? No,
they are interested in what they want! Instead, use that space for a career summary A good one is brief - three
to four sentences long A good one will make the person reviewing your application want to read further.Many resumes list ‘hard’ job-specific skills, almost to the exclusion of transferable, or ‘soft’, skills.However, your ability to negotiate effectively, for example, can be just as important as your technical skills.All information you give should be relevant, so carefully consider the job for which you are applying Ifyou are applying for a job that is somewhat different than your current job, it is up to you to draw aconnection for the resume reviewer, so that they will understand how your skills will fit in their organization.The person who reviews your paperwork will not be a mind reader
If you are modest about the skills you can offer, or the results you have achieved, a resume reader maytake what you write literally, and be left with a low opinion of your ability: you need to say exactly how goodyou are On the other hand, of course, never stretch the truth or lie

(Bạn có thể không cần một dàn nhạc đầy đủ hoặc các giai điệu jazz sang trọng để tạo ra tâm trạng, nhưng liệukhi bắt đầu với một hiệu ứng tinh tế, trình diễn chuyên nghiệp hay chỉ đơn giản là cố gắng thu hút khách hàngthì âm nhạc là điều bắt buộc [….] Hãy tưởng tượng nếu trò chơi video yêu thích của bạn không có nhạc nềnhoặc hiệu ứng âm thanh để sao lưu đồ họa tuyệt vời? Bạn sẽ chơi nó với cùng cảm giác và hứng thú? Không!Tương tự là trường hợp với những explainer video của bạn Chúng cần và phải có hiệu ứng âm thanh thíchhợp để khiến chúng xứng đáng với thời gian xem của bạn.)
Question 34: Đáp án B
Từ “it” trong đoạn 3 ám chỉ _
A score /skɔr/ (n): một đoạn nhạc được viết cho một bộ phim
B video /ˈvɪdioʊ/ (n): vi-đê-ô
C sound /saʊnd/ (n): âm thanh
D background /ˈbækɡraʊnd/ (n): nền
*Với dạng câu hỏi này, hãy đọc câu ngay trước câu chứa nó hoặc ngay trong câu chứa nó để suy luận từ đượcquy chiếu
*Căn cứ vào thông tin trong câu cuối đoạn 3 sau:
“Even if your video doesn’t require a background score, it must include some sound effects or else it would benot so good an experience for those who choose to watch it.”
(Ngay cả khi video của bạn không yêu cầu nhạc nền, nó phải bao gồm một số hiệu ứng âm thanh nếu không
nó sẽ không phải là một trải nghiệm tốt cho những người lựa chọn xem nó.)
→Như vậy, đại từ “it” in đậm cũng chính là hai đại từ “it” còn lại trong cùng câu đó, ám chỉ “video”
Question 35: Đáp án B
Theo đoạn 3, việc sử dụng cần thiết và tiêu biểu của những explainer video là gì?
A Nó được sử dụng để chắt lọc các ý tưởng rộng và phức tạp thành một chương trình thân thiện với ngườixem
B Các doanh nghiệp sử dụng chúng để nhanh chóng giới thiệu chính họ và tầm quan trọng của họ
C Nó được thiết kế như một phương tiện để kích thích cả thính giác và thị giác
D Nó giúp các khách hàng trong những vấn đề cuộc sống hàng ngày với các thông tin khoa học
Căn cứ vào các thông tin trong đoạn 3 như sau:
“While the focus of explainer videos production is more on passing the desired information and explainingtechnical and complex procedures easily, it doesn’t mean you’ll be distracting your viewers with thebackground music The sound effects and music is not going to take the message away from your explainer,it’s just going to enhance it and turn it more watchable and share-able.”
(Mặc dù trọng tâm của việc sản xuất những explainer video thì tập trung vào việc truyền tải thông tin mongmuốn và giải thích các quy trình thuộc về kỹ thuật và phức tạp một cách dễ dàng, nhưng điều đó không cónghĩa là bạn sẽ làm người xem mất tập trung với nhạc nền Các hiệu ứng âm thanh và âm nhạc sẽ không lấy đithông điệp từ những explainer video, nó chỉ là để cải thiện nó và biến nó trở nên dễ xem và có thể dễ dàngchia sẻ hơn.)

Từ đồng nghĩa: executing (thực hiện) = implementing
They do not necessarily know the specific skills you used in executing them, nor do they know what results
you achieved - both of which are essential

Từ đồng nghĩa: concrete (cụ thể) = specific
The more concrete information you can include, the better (Thông tin bạn cung cấp càng cụ thể càng tốt)

way of increasing productivity, by what percentage did you increase it?

The biggest problem is perhaps listing the duties for which you were responsible in a past position: all this tells your potential employers is what you were supposed to do They do not necessarily know the specific skills you used in executing them, nor do they know what results you achieved - both of which are essential
(Vấn đề lớn nhất có lẽ là liệt kê các công việc mà bạn đã làm trong chức vụ trước đây: tất cả những điều này nói cho nhà tuyển dụng tiềm năng của bạn biết những gì bạn có thể làm được Họ không cần thiết phải biết những kĩ năng cụ thể bạn đã sử dụng để thực hiện các nhiệm vụ đó, họ cũng không cần biết kết quả bạn đã đạt được là gì – cả hai thứ đó đều rất quan trọng).
Trang 26Writing what you are trying to achieve in life - your objective - is a waste of space (Viết về những điều bạn đang cố gắng đạt được trong cuộc sống – mục tiêu của bạn – là một sự lãng phí giấy)
Question 41: Đáp án B

để viết bản tóm tắt về sự nghiệp Một bản tóm tắt phù hợp là tầm 3 đến 4 câu ngắn gọn Một bản tóm tắt hay
sẽ khiến cho người đọc hồ sơ xin việc của bạn muốn đọc nhiều hơn nữa)
Question 42: Đáp án C

C Người xin việc không nên nộp đơn xin một công việc khác với công việc mà họ đang làm
D Những thông tin mà người đi phỏng vấn trình bày nên có liên quan đến công việc mà họ đang xin
Từ khóa: not true
Căn cứ vào các thông tin trong đoạn văn:
However, your ability to negotiate effectively, for example, can be just as important as your technical skills (Tuy nhiên, khả năng đàm phán hiệu quả của bạn cũng quan trọng như các kĩ năng thực hành.)
All information you give should be relevant, so carefully consider the job for which you are applying If you are applying for a job that is somewhat different than your current job, it is up to you to draw a connection for
the resume reviewer, so that they will understand how your skills will fit in their organization (Tất cả các thông tin bạn cung cấp nên có mối liên quan với nhau, vì vậy hãy nghiên cứu công việc bạn định xin một cách
kĩ càng Nếu bạn đang xin một công việc, về mặt nào đó, khác với công việc hiện tại của bạn, bạn nên tạo sự liên kết giữa 2 công việc để người đọc bản sơ yếu lý lịch hiểu được các kĩ năng của bạn phù hợp với tổ chức của họ)

The pleasure derived from this activity is common to all kinds of reading But different types of books
give us different types of pleasure First in order of popularity is novel-reading Novels contain pictures ofimaginary people in imaginary situations, and give us an opportunity of escaping into a new world very much

gives us a thrill of pleasure
Next in order of popularity are travel books, biographies and memoirs These tell us tales of places wehave not seen and of great men in whom we are interested Some of these books are as wonderful as novels,and they have an added value that they are true Such books give us knowledge, and we also find immensepleasure in knowing details of lands we have not seen and of great men we have only heard of
Reading is one of the greatest enjoyments of life To book-lovers, nothing is more fascinating than afavorite book And, the ordinary educated man who is interested and absorbed in his daily occupation wants tooccasionally escape from his drudgery into the wonderland of books for recreation and refreshment

Plants and animals will find it difficult to escape from or adjust to the effects of global warming Scientisthave already observed shifts in the lifecycles of many plants and animals, such as flowers blooming earlierand birds hatching earlier in the spring Many species have begun shifting where they live or their annualmigration patterns due to warmer temperatures
With further warming, animals will tend to migrate toward the poles and up mountainsides toward higherelevations Plants will also attempt to shift their ranges, seeking new areas as old habitats grow too warm Inmany places, however, human development will prevent these shifts Species that find cities or farmland
blocking their way north or south may become extinct Species living in unique ecosystems, such as those
found in polar and mountaintop regions, are especially at risk because migration to new habitats is not
Trang 31possible For example, polar bears and marine mammals in the Arctic are already threatened by dwindling seaice but have nowhere farther north to go.
Projecting species extinction due to global warming is extremely difficult Some scientists have estimatedthat 20 to 50 percent of species could be committed to extinction with 2 to 3 Celsius degrees of furtherwarming The rate of warming, not just the magnitude, is extremely important for plants and animals Somespecies and even entire ecosystems, such as certain types of forest, may not be able to adjust quickly enoughand may disappear
Ocean ecosystems, especially fragile ones like coral reefs, will also be affected by global warming.
Warmer ocean temperatures can cause coral to “bleach”, a state which if prolonged will lead to the death ofthe coral Scientists estimate that even 1 Celsius degree of additional warming could lead to widespreadbleaching and death of coral reefs around the world Also, increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere entersthe ocean and increases the acidity of ocean waters This acidification further stresses ocean ecosystems

Plants and animals will find it difficult to escape from or adjust to the effects of global warming Scientisthave already observed shifts in the lifecycles of many plants and animals, such as flowers blooming earlierand birds hatching earlier in the spring Many species have begun shifting where they live or their annualmigration patterns due to warmer temperatures
Trang 36With further warming, animals will tend to migrate toward the poles and up mountainsides toward higherelevations Plants will also attempt to shift their ranges, seeking new areas as old habitats grow too warm Inmany places, however, human development will prevent these shifts Species that find cities or farmland
blocking their way north or south may become extinct Species living in unique ecosystems, such as those
found in polar and mountaintop regions, are especially at risk because migration to new habitats is notpossible For example, polar bears and marine mammals in the Arctic are already threatened by dwindling seaice but have nowhere farther north to go
Projecting species extinction due to global warming is extremely difficult Some scientists have estimatedthat 20 to 50 percent of species could be committed to extinction with 2 to 3 Celsius degrees of furtherwarming The rate of warming, not just the magnitude, is extremely important for plants and animals Somespecies and even entire ecosystems, such as certain types of forest, may not be able to adjust quickly enoughand may disappear
Ocean ecosystems, especially fragile ones like coral reefs, will also be affected by global warming.
Warmer ocean temperatures can cause coral to “bleach”, a state which if prolonged will lead to the death ofthe coral Scientists estimate that even 1 Celsius degree of additional warming could lead to widespreadbleaching and death of coral reefs around the world Also, increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere entersthe ocean and increases the acidity of ocean waters This acidification further stresses ocean ecosystems

Humans have struggled against weeds since the beginnings of agriculture Marring our gardens is one ofthe milder effects of weeds - any plants that thrive where they are unwanted They clog waterways, destroywildlife habitats, and impede farming Their spread eliminates grazing areas and accounts for one-third of allcrop loss They compete for sunlight, nutrients, and water with useful plants
The global need for weed control had been answered mainly by the chemical industry Its herbicides areeffective and sometimes necessary, but some pose serious problems, particularly if misused Toxiccompounds threaten animal and public health when they accumulate in food plants, groundwater, anddrinking water They also harm workers who apply them
In recent years, the chemical industry has introduced several herbicides that are more ecologically sound
Yet new chemicals alone cannot solve the world's weed problems Hence, scientists are exploring the innate
weed-killing powers of living organisms, primarily insects and microorganisms
Trang 40The biological agents now in use are environmentally benign and are harmless to humans They can bechosen for their ability to attack selected targets and leave crops and other plants untouched In contrast, some
of the most effective chemicals kill virtually all the plants they come in contact with, sparing only those thatare naturally resistant or have been genetically modified for resistance Furthermore, a number of biologicalagents can be administered only once, after which no added applications are needed Chemicals typically must
be used several times per growing season

A The importance of the chemical industry
B The dangers of toxic chemicals
C A proposal to ban the use of all herbicides
D Advantages of biological agents over chemical ones

Read the following passage and Mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42
Let children learn to judge their own work A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the
time If corrected too much, he will stop talking He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the
language he uses and the language those around him use Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to makehis language like other people's In the same way, children learn all the other things they learn to do withoutbeing taught - to talk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle - compare their own performances with those of moreskilled people, and slowly make the needed changes But in school we never give a child a chance to find outhis mistakes for himself, let alone correct them We do it all for him We act as if we thought that he wouldnever notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to Soon he becomesdependent on the teacher Let him do it himself Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants
it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this
or not
If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book Let himcorrect his own papers Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? Our job should be to helpthe child when he tells us that he can't find the way to get the right answer Let's end all this nonsense ofgrades, exams, and marks Let us throw them all out, and let the children learn what all educated persons mustsomeday learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know Let them get on with this job in the way that seems most sensible to them, with our help as school teachers
if they ask for it The idea that there is a body of knowledge to be learnt at school and used for the rest of one's
life is nonsense in a world as complicated and rapidly changing as ours Anxious parents and teachers say,
“But suppose they fail to learn something essential, something they will need to get on in the world?" Don'tworry! If it is essential, they will go out into the world and learn it
Question 36: What does the author think is the best way for children to learn things?
A By listening to explanations from skilled people
