As the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of relaxation. Once you are in the habit
of rushing through life, being on the go from morning to night, it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is
essential for a healthy mind and body.
Stress is a natural part of every life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing it is often
supposed to be. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life. It is only
when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.
The amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual. Some people are not
afraid of stress, and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities. Others


lose heart at the first signs of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress in whatever form, we react both
chemically and physically. In fact we make choice between "fight" or "flight", and in more primitive days
the choice made the difference between life or death. The crises we meet today are not likely to be so
extreme, but however little the stress, it involves the same response. It is when such a reaction lasts long,
through continued exposure to stress that health becomes endangered. Such serious conditions as high
blood pressure and heart disease have established links with stress. Since we cannot remove stress from
our lives (and it would be unwise to do so even if we could), we need to find ways to deal with it.
Question 31. People are finding less and less time for relaxing themselves because_________.
A. they do not know how to enjoy themselves
B. they do not believe that relaxation is important for health
C. they are travelling fast all the time
D. they are becoming busier their work
Question 32. According to the writer, the most important character for a good manager is his_______.
A. not fearing stress
B. high sense of responsibility
C. knowing the art of relaxation
D. having control over performance

Question 33. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. We can find some ways to avoid stress.
B. Stress is always harmful to people.
C. It’s easy to change the habit of keeping oneself busy with work.
D. Different people can withstand different amount of stress.
Question 34. In paragraph 3. "such a reaction" refers back to_________
A. making a choice between "fight" or "flight"
B. reaction to stress both chemically and physically
C. responding to crises quickly
D. losing heart at die signs of difficulties
Question 35. In the last sentence of the passage, "do so" refers to_________.
A. expose ourselves to stress
B. find ways to deal with stress
C. remove stress from our lives
D. establish links between diseases and stress
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 36 to 42.
The Socialist Republic of Vietnam has stood out as one such example of how to effectively respond to the
pandemic. Vietnam, which shares a border with China and is about 1, 200 miles from where the outbreak
was first reported in Wuhan, has overcome steep odds in the global fight against COVID-19. As of April
6, the Vietnamese government has reported 245 confirmed cases with 95 recoveries and no fatalities.
The country's response to the outbreak has received international recognition, including from the World
Health Organization and World Economic Forum, for its comprehensive, low-cost model of disease
prevention. WHO representative in Vietnam, Dr. Ki Dong Park, attests the government “has always been
proactive and prepared for necessary actions".
The Communist Party of Vietnam has strengthened its anti-pandemic measures by implementing
nationwide social distancing rules, such as banning outside gatherings of more than two people while
keeping a distance of 6. 5 feet, and temporary shutdowns of '’non-essential’’ businesses, including
restaurants, entertainment centers and tourist sites.
Supermarkets and other essential services remain open, but are instructed to safeguard customers’ health

by checking their temperatures before entering the building and providing them with hand sanitizers. In
addition, the government has warned against panic buying and has taken action against businesses
engaged in price gouging. To ensure social security for affected workers, Vietnam has approved a 111. 55
million dollar financial support package that includes covering all costs for workers in quarantine or are
recovering from the disease.
Unlike the U. S. capitalist class and the Trump administration, the Vietnamese government took early
measures to combat the current coronavirus epidemic. Officials began preparing strategies to combat the
outbreak immediately after the first cases emerged in China.
On February 1. Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc signed Decision No. l73. QD-TTG, categorizing the
virus as a Class A contagious disease "that can transmit very rapidly and spread widely with high
mortality rates. " This declaration of a national emergency came after the sixth case of coronavirus in the


country was reported. In contrast, the Trump administration only declared a national emergency over the
global pandemic on March 13, when there were at least 1, 920 confirmed cases across 46 states.

As the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of relaxation. Once you are in the habit

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 36 to 42.


The Socialist Republic of Vietnam has stood out as one such example of how to effectively respond to the
pandemic. Vietnam, which shares a border with China and is about 1, 200 miles from where the outbreak
was first reported in Wuhan, has overcome steep odds in the global fight against COVID-19. As of April
6, the Vietnamese government has reported 245 confirmed cases with 95 recoveries and no fatalities.
The country's response to the outbreak has received international recognition, including from the World
Health Organization and World Economic Forum, for its comprehensive, low-cost model of disease
prevention. WHO representative in Vietnam, Dr. Ki Dong Park, attests the government “has always been
proactive and prepared for necessary actions".
The Communist Party of Vietnam has strengthened its anti-pandemic measures by implementing
nationwide social distancing rules, such as banning outside gatherings of more than two people while
keeping a distance of 6. 5 feet, and temporary shutdowns of '’non-essential’’ businesses, including

restaurants, entertainment centers and tourist sites.
Supermarkets and other essential services remain open, but are instructed to safeguard customers’ health
by checking their temperatures before entering the building and providing them with hand sanitizers. In
addition, the government has warned against panic buying and has taken action against businesses
engaged in price gouging. To ensure social security for affected workers, Vietnam has approved a 111. 55
million dollar financial support package that includes covering all costs for workers in quarantine or are
recovering from the disease.
Unlike the U. S. capitalist class and the Trump administration, the Vietnamese government took early
measures to combat the current coronavirus epidemic. Officials began preparing strategies to combat the
outbreak immediately after the first cases emerged in China.
On February 1. Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc signed Decision No. l73. QD-TTG, categorizing the
virus as a Class A contagious disease "that can transmit very rapidly and spread widely with high
mortality rates. " This declaration of a national emergency came after the sixth case of coronavirus in the
country was reported. In contrast, the Trump administration only declared a national emergency over the
global pandemic on March 13, when there were at least 1, 920 confirmed cases across 46 states.
