II / Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer. ( 2 m )
Today, more and more women are actively participating in social activities both in urban and rural areas.
Specifically, they have shined brightly in even many fields commonly regarded as the man’s areas such as
business, scientific research and social management. In some areas, women even show more overwhelming power
than men. The image of contemporary Vietnamese women with creativeness, dynamism, success has become
popular in Vietnam’s society. The fact reveals that the gender gap has been remarkably narrowed and women
enjoy many more opportunities to pursue their social careers and obtain success, contributing to national socioeconomic development. According to Ms, Le Thi Quy, Director of the Gender/and Development Research Centre
under the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Hanoi National University, gender equity in Vietnam has
reached a high level over the past decade. The rate of Vietnamese women becoming National Assembly members
from the 9th term to the 11th term increased 8.7%, bringing the proportion of Vietnamese women in authority to
27.3%, the highest rate in Southeast Asia. There is no big gap in the level of literacy and schooling between men
and women. Women account for about 37% of university and college graduates, 19.9% of doctoral degree holders
and 6.7% of professors and associate professors.
The legitimate rights of women and children are ensured more than ever before with more complete legal
documents including laws, conventions and national action plans, among which the laws on “gender equity” mark
a turning-point in the empowerment of women.
Mass media also highlights the continued success of women in every field and honors their great importance
in modern society, helping to do away with outdated perceptions about traditional women’s duties. Many projects
on reproductive health care, children protection, and family income improvement jointly conducted by various
mass organizations, state agencies and non-governmental organizations have created favorable conditions for
women to become involved.
29. The text is about_________ ________.
a. the changes in the status of Vietnamese women b. the Vietnamese women’s liberation
c. the Vietnamese sex discrimination
d. the discrimination that Vietnamese women have to face
30. Which adjective is not used to describe Vietnamese women?
a. successful
b. creative

c. narrow
d. dynamic
31. According to the data in the text, _________ ________.
a. Vietnamese women do not take part in authority b. there are no female professors in Vietnam
c. the level of literacy and schooling between men and women in Vietnam is the same
d. there are more women in authority in Vietnam than those in any other countries in Southeast Asia .
32. Vietnamese women _________ _______.
a. have few opportunities to develop their intellectual ability b. have only shined brightly in doing housework
c. cannot do any scientific research
d. are ensured their rights with laws, conventions and national action plans
33. Which is not mentioned in the text as a project to create condition for Vietnamese women?
a. Traditional women’s duties
b. Reproductive health care
c. Children protection
d. Family income improvement
III / Fill in each numbered blank with one suitable word or phrase. ( 1 m )
We should (34) _________ our children to read more books and (35) _________ less time watching TV.
Some people have commented that this is inconsistent. “Why is the written word a superior way to get
information than television?” That is an interesting point of view worth further exploration Reading is a skill that
is in much greater demand than the demand for watching TV. There are no jobs that (36) _________ a person to
be able to watch TV but reading is an integral part of many jobs. The written word is an incredibly flexible and
efficient way of communication. You can write something down and, in no time, it can be (37) _________ to
many different people. Not only that, we can
(38) _________ vast amounts of information through reading in a very short time. A good reader can acquire
more information in reading for two hours than someone watching TV can acquire in a full day.

II / Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer. ( 2 m )

Today, more and more women are actively participating in social activities both in urban and rural areas.
Specifically, they have shined brightly in even many fields commonly regarded as the man's areas such as
business, scientific research and social management. In some areas, women even show more overwhelming power
than men. The image of contemporary Vietnamese women with creativeness, dynamism, success has become
popular in Vietnam's society. The fact reveals that the gender gap has been remarkably narrowed and women
enjoy many more opportunities to pursue their social careers and obtain success, contributing to national socioeconomic development. According to Ms, Le Thi Quy, Director of the Gender/and Development Research Centre
under the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Hanoi National University, gender equity in Vietnam has
reached a high level over the past decade. The rate of Vietnamese women becoming National Assembly members
from the 9th term to the 11th term increased 8.7%, bringing the proportion of Vietnamese women in authority to
27.3%, the highest rate in Southeast Asia. There is no big gap in the level of literacy and schooling between men
and women. Women account for about 37% of university and college graduates, 19.9% of doctoral degree holders
and 6.7% of professors and associate professors.
The legitimate rights of women and children are ensured more than ever before with more complete legal
documents including laws, conventions and national action plans, among which the laws on "gender equity" mark
a turning-point in the empowerment of women.
Mass media also highlights the continued success of women in every field and honors their great importance
in modern society, helping to do away with outdated perceptions about traditional women's duties. Many projects
on reproductive health care, children protection, and family income improvement jointly conducted by various
mass organizations, state agencies and non-governmental organizations have created favorable conditions for
women to become involved.
