PASSAGE 1
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the questions.
TikTok is now the most downloaded app in the world. One of the most popular ways users engage with the app is to carry out challenges encouraging people to video themselves doing activities like singing, dancing or acting. A successful challenge will go viral, with hundreds of thousands of people participating. [I]
While copying another person’s video is hardly original or creative, its appeal, especially among young audiences, is clear. Anyone with a smartphone can get involved. No talent is required beyond a little extroversion and commitment. Consequently, challenges are ideal for those craving the limelight, particularly children, teenagers, and young adults.
The problem is that these young people are most at risk. This is because the part of the brain that handles rational thought is not fully developed in humans until the mid-20s, making them less able to make long-term plans and analyze risk. Since the young brain values inclusion and popularity, the more attention a stunt gets, the less likely a person is to consider potential dangers.
The TikTok challenge trend has had severe consequences. In 2020, the ‘skull-breaker’ challenge, involving two people kicking a third person’s legs to make them fall over, caused teenagers in both the UK and the US to be badly injured. [II] Users searching for the skull-breaker challenge would only see a warning about its dangers.
This reaction was clearly not thorough enough because, in 2021, several fatal incidents occurred from the ‘blackout’ challenge, encouraging people to choke themselves until they passed out. Several youngsters died, including two girls under ten. The bereaved families are now suing TikTok for spreading the challenge among impressionable youngsters. [III] While the challenge did not originate on TikTok, parents claim the platform's ‘dangerous’ algorithms are responsible. They say that the videos were intentionally and repeatedly pushed onto their children’s feeds, encouraging their participation. They claim that the company has prioritized corporate profits over the health and safety of its users. [IV]

PASSAGE 2
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the questions.
Myopia, or nearsightedness, is becoming so common in Vietnamese schools that experts are calling it an educational “epidemic”, making children’s vision protection an urgent public health priority.
At a recent seminar on refractive surgery technologies, Dr. Pham Thi Hong Duong - former specialist at Hanoi Eye Hospital - highlighted the alarming trends: around 30% of students suffer from refractive errors, with myopia accounting for 28%. Even more concerning, in one Hanoi high school known for academic excellence, up to 90% of students were nearsighted.
Severe myopia isn’t just an inconvenience. It increases the risk of serious complications such as retinal degeneration, detachment, glaucoma, and early cataracts. The WHO has ranked myopia as the fifth leading cause of potential blindness, warning that high myopia rates are climbing fast globally.
Dr. Duong noted that treatment options vary based on age and severity. Common solutions include prescription glasses, contact lenses, and refractive surgery. For those aged 18 and above, laser-based surgeries can offer long-term vision correction. However, conditions like extremely thin corneas, high refractive error, or preexisting eye diseases may rule out surgical options.
Recent advances in refractive surgery have significantly improved outcomes. Some modern techniques involve laser exposure of just 10 seconds, and are supported by AI tools that predict visual results not only immediately but also long into the future. Compared to older methods like corneal flap creation or surface ablation, newer procedures offer faster recovery, minimal side effects such as dry eyes, and better corneal integrity.
Still, prevention is key - especially for children. Dr. Duong recommends regular eye checkups for children with myopia to monitor progression and implement control strategies. Current interventions include overnight orthokeratology (Ortho-K) lenses, specially designed eyeglass lenses, vision therapy programs, and certain medications. On a broader level, maintaining healthy eye habits is essential. Children and adults alike should avoid excessive near work, manage screen time, use proper lighting, and maintain good posture when studying or working. More outdoor activity, a balanced diet, and nutritional supplements - especially vitamins A, C, E, and zinc - can also help sustain long-term eye health.
In short, as myopia rises among students, the combination of awareness, early intervention, and modern technology offers the best defense for the future of children’s vision.

In recent years, there has been a significant shift from traditional mass tourism to more sustainable travel options, including ecotourism. What are the advantages of ecotourism? Give examples and details to support your answer. (Trong những năm gần đây, đã có một sự chuyển dịch đáng kể từ du lịch đại trà truyền thống sang các lựa chọn du lịch bền vững hơn, bao gồm cả du lịch sinh thái. Những lợi ích của du lịch sinh thái là gì? Hãy đưa ra các ví dụ và chi tiết để chứng minh cho câu trả lời của bạn)
Suggested answer:
Ecotourism offers profound advantages by striking a balance between environmental conservation and socio-economic development. Primarily, it plays a crucial role in preserving fragile ecosystems. Unlike traditional mass tourism, which often degrades natural habitats, ecotourism channels funding directly into wildlife protection. For instance, tourists visiting nature reserves like Vietnam’s Cuc Phuong National Park pay entrance fees that are strictly reinvested into anti-poaching measures and habitat restoration. Furthermore, this sustainable approach significantly empowers local communities. By creating green jobs such as eco-guiding, homestay hosting, and crafting traditional goods, ecotourism provides a reliable income stream for indigenous people. This economic incentive encourages locals to become dedicated protectors of their own environment rather than exploiting its resources. In conclusion, ecotourism provides a dual benefit by financing environmental conservation and empowering local communities through sustainable livelihoods.
Bản dịch:
Du lịch sinh thái mang lại những lợi ích to lớn bằng cách tạo ra sự cân bằng giữa bảo tồn môi trường và phát triển kinh tế - xã hội. Trước hết, nó đóng một vai trò quan trọng trong việc bảo vệ các hệ sinh thái mỏng manh. Không giống như du lịch đại trà truyền thống thường làm suy thoái môi trường sống tự nhiên, du lịch sinh thái rót nguồn tài trợ trực tiếp vào việc bảo vệ động vật hoang dã. Ví dụ, khách du lịch đến thăm các khu bảo tồn thiên nhiên như Vườn quốc gia Cúc Phương của Việt Nam sẽ trả phí vào cửa, khoản tiền này được tái đầu tư nghiêm ngặt vào các biện pháp chống săn trộm và phục hồi môi trường sống. Hơn nữa, cách tiếp cận bền vững này trao quyền và cải thiện đáng kể đời sống của các cộng đồng địa phương. Bằng cách tạo ra các việc làm xanh như hướng dẫn viên sinh thái, kinh doanh dịch vụ lưu trú và làm đồ thủ công truyền thống, du lịch sinh thái cung cấp một nguồn thu nhập ổn định cho người dân bản địa. Động lực kinh tế này khuyến khích người dân địa phương trở thành những người bảo vệ tận tâm cho chính môi trường của họ thay vì khai thác tài nguyên. Tóm lại, du lịch sinh thái mang lại lợi ích kép bằng cách tài trợ cho việc bảo tồn môi trường và hỗ trợ cộng đồng địa phương thông qua các sinh kế bền vững.
