Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 39- 43

Vietnam’s population is ageing quickly. In 2017, more than 10 per cent of the population will be 60 and older, and in 15-20 years the elderly will account for one third of the total population. This raises concerns about healthcare, welfare and pensions for the elderly at a time when Vietnam is focusing on economic integration and requires a large labor force. So far two solutions have been proposed: to loosen the two-child policy and to increase the retirement age to 58 for women and 62 for men. By ending the two-child policy the government expects to make up for the ageing population within the next 20 years. But its effect could be creating an uncontrollable boom in the Vietnamese population. When the government loosened the two-child policy in 2015 in a trial period, in the first 6 months of 2016 the third child birth rate increased remarkably by 7.5 per cent

Raising the retirement age has been proposed by the Ministry of Labor pending parliamentary evaluation in May 2017. While the policy is beneficial in utilizing the work experience of the elderly while creating savings in the pension budget, it also means fewer job prospects and promotion opportunities for younger generations. It is also not in the interest of all the elderly, especially the 70 per cent of Vietnam's labor force working in manual labor-intensive sectors such as agriculture, manufacturing and construction where working above the age of 50 can be dangerous and unproductive. Despite these drawbacks, raising the retirement age is still considered by policymakers as one of the key solutions to the ageing population problem in Vietnam. However, these are only temporary solutions.

Question 39: The best title for this passage could be ________.

A. Vietnam struggling with ageing population

B. Stopping the two-child policy in Vietnam

C. Raising the retirement age in Vietnam

D. How to solve the aging population in Vietnam

Question 40: Which statement is probably TRUE according to the information in the paragraph 1?

A. In 2017, the elderly take up for one third of the total population, this leads to more concerns about healthcare, welfare and pensions for the elderly.

B. In 2015, the two-child policy has been officially tightened and succeeded.

C. The government would promote families to have two children to compensate for the ageing population within the next 20 years.

D. In the next 15-17 years, Vietnam's economy will need a large labor force to integrate with global economy.

Question 41: The word “its" in paragraph 1 refers to ________?

A. two-Child policy

B. aging population

C. retirement age

D. economic integration

Question 42: In the 2rd paragraph, the writer suggests that ________.

A. The Ministry of Labor has applied raising the retirement age in May 2017.

B. Raising the retirement age can reduce job opportunities for younger generations.

C. The elderly whose age is 50 would be dangerous if they continued to work

D. Raising the retirement age and stopping two-child policy can be considered as long-term and effective solutions.

Question 43: The word "temporary" in paragraph 2 means ________.

A. constant

B. permanent

C. short-term

D. long-term

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 44 - 50.

Volunteering offers many of the same social benefits, with the added bonus of helping others and developing useful skills to put on your CV. Plus, students are in a unique position to help, suggests Tom Fox. "They can take their enthusiasm and excitement for opportunities and share their passions, subject knowledge and experience with people." The idea of giving up time for nothing might seem impractical at first, especially once the pressures of study and coursework or exams begin to mount up. However, Michelle Wright, CEO of charity support organization Cause4, suggests seeing volunteering as a two-way street. "I think it is fine for undergraduates to approach volunteering as a symbiotic relationship where doing good is just one part of the motivation for reaching personal and professional goals."

Katerina Rudiger, head of skills and policy campaigns at the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD), says: "Volunteering can be a valuable way of gaining that experience, as well as building confidence, broadening your horizons, becoming a better team player and developing those all- important 'employability skills' such as communication and decision making." Amanda Haig, graduate HR manager, agrees that volunteering can help your employment prospects. "Volunteering can demonstrate positive personality traits and skill sets, such as proactivity, and teamwork," she says.

A positive side-effect of volunteering is improving your time at university by getting involved in the local community. Leaving the student bubble can make your time as an undergraduate much more varied. At Bath Spa University, more than 1,000 students volunteered over the past year, doing everything from working on local environmental projects to helping in schools or assisting the elderly. ”Quite often there can be a divide between students and permanent residents," says students' union president Amy Dawson, "but if students invest a little time now, they will be giving something back to the local community and will reap the benefits in the future."

“You might also find that volunteering helps your studies if you choose the right program. At Lancaster, volunteering is linked into academic modules in some cases", explains Fox. "This has multiple wins. Students get to apply their learning in the classroom and share their interests with children in local schools or community organizations, while schools gain skilled students with a passion for a subject that enthuses their pupils."

Question 44: What is the most suitable title for this reading?

A. Volunteering at university

B. Volunteering helps employment prospects

C. Students should take part in extracurricular activities to put it on CV

D. The virtues of volunteering

Question 45: Which of the following information is NOT mentioned in paragraph 1?

A. Many social benefits are provided by volunteering.

B. Students are likely to be enthusiastic for chances and share their interests with people.

C. Volunteering might increase the pressures of study and coursework or exam.

D. Michelle Wright recommends seeing volunteering as a two-way street.

Question 46: The word “gaining” in paragraph 2 can be replaced by____________.

A. getting

B. making

C. lacking

D. taking

Question 47: Personality traits and skill sets include____________.

A. communication and decision – making

B. proactivity and collaboration

C. proactivity and confidence

D. passions, subject knowledge and experience.

Question 48: What does the word “side-effect” mean?

A. additional result that you did not expect or want

B. an extra good result

C. another side of a street

D. a two-way street

Question 49: What does the word "they" refer to in paragraph 3?

A. projects

B. residents

C. students

D. benefits

Question 50: Which of the following most accurately reflects Fox’s explanation in the last paragraph?

A. Students at universities must join at least one activity in volunteer campaign at local schools.

B. Students at universities should join as many activities in volunteer campaign at local schools as possible.

C. Students at universities who join volunteer work will gain a lot of purposes for the community only.

D. Students at universities who join volunteer work will gain a lot of purposes for not only themselves but also the community.
