II. READING
TASK 1. Read the passage. Circle the best answer A, B, or C to each of the questions.
In the late 19th century, the women’s movement occurred in many developed countries. It is said to begin in Western societies and then quickly spread over the world. During the movement, women fought against inequality in education, employment, reproductive rights, etc. Their uprising was the inevitable result of such a long period of being subdued. The victims of the temporarily old society were not only women from poor families but also from all the social classes not permitted to express their own ideas. To these people, life seemed to last endlessly without freedom and joyfulness. Therefore, their reaction was considered as the revolution in recognising their contributions and narrowing the huge gender gap between males and females. The victory of the feminist movement gave birth for the new era of independence, liberty, and happiness for all women globally. Since then, women have legally gone to school, chosen their career, and been admitted to most social institutions and organisations, which had been considered extremely luxurious things for them. Although gender inequality has been substantially reduced over the past decades, there are still a few places where women do not have their entitlement, young girl children are completely illiterate and mature ones cannot work and receive payment as equally as men. How to help them to be released from the culturally regional oppression is a very tricky situation. However, it is believed that this issue is going to be resolved soon.
1. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The violent war happened in the late 19th century to gain independence.
B. Women are maltreated in the world.
C. Women life has changed since their feminist movement.
D. Women were the victims of violent behaviour.
2. Who were often repressed when expressing their own perspective?
A. Women from the lower, middle, and upper social status.
B. Women from poor rural families.
C. Women working in social groups.
D. Women in Western countries only.
3. In the past, working for social groups or organisations was ___________.
A. an honour for those having luxurious life
B. severely limited for women
C. women’s regular choice
D. encouraged by the wealthy
4. According to the passage, what is one of the remaining drawbacks of gender inequality in a few nations?
A.The low participation rate of women in politics
B.The high level of illiterate young girls
C.The decrease in the salary for working women
D.The law against reproductive rights

A.not solvable

Script:
Mark: Hello Hoa, how is our group presentation on Viet Nam in international integration for next week?
Hoa:Hi Mark, I’m thinking about what organisation we’ll choose to present. Do you have any ideas about this?
Mark: As far as I know Viet Nam has taken part in a lot of international organisations so far, but a few ones have been mentioned by the teacher like UNICEF, the United Nations and so on; so, we should find another one for everyone to gain new information. I recommend the ASEAN community.
Hoa:Okay, great! My country has joined this Association of Southeast Asian Nations since 1995, and we are going to host the SEA games next year. So let our classmates know more about the ASEAN with lots of interesting things about other countries like Thailand and Singapore.
Mark: I couldn’t agree more. Let’s talk about the outline for our speech, particularly the way we introduce the topic. Do you think we need to present a video to catch the audiences’ attention first?
Hoa:That’s a good idea! We’ll let them enjoy some audio-visual materials before showing them the main section including many detailed information about this regional community and how important the role of Viet Nam is in this organisation. So, I’ll take charge of this part, and the presentation’s body is yours, OK?
Mark: Well, although I love doing something related to technological jobs like making a video but… not in this case. Fine! Just follow your suggestion and Mike will be the IT guy this time.

Good evening, everyone. Today I will tell you all some really important and useful information that surely benefits those who are interested in learning Spanish. I’m the Deputy Director of the Union Bank, and I have many scholarships worth millions VND for students who have financial difficulty to follow some Spanish courses. We will offer you 50% to 75% free of the program tuition fees and the rest will be paid monthly. The program of learning Spanish is completely online but it does not mean it’s less interactive than traditional courses. You’ll have an abundance of material sources to discover with lots of video and audio lessons, in addition to various book references. You’ll spend 2 hours every Monday and Wednesday to meet the native speakers who are professional teachers from Spain and countries using Spanish as their official language. Besides learning Spanish, you can find out about Spanish history and culture with native speakers directly. You’ll never find such a precious opportunity to be a member of the institution again! All the information will be in the file sent to your email.

TASK 2
Sample writing:
Today online learning plays an important role in students’ academic life. First, it is undeniable that studying in E-classes is a safe and convenient way for students to keep track of their study at home if an outbreak of disease occurs like the Coronavirus pandemic. Students do not need to go to school, so they can avoid being infected with fatal diseases. Second, it enables students to take advantage of new technology in studying. They are able to review the videos of E-lessons after class, actively communicate with their teachers via free, easy-to-use apps with various supporting tools, do assignments, and get feedback quickly. Finally, it helps students become more proactive in learning. Unlike face-to-face learning, students become more independent and have to improve their self-awareness, time-management skills as well as concentrate on teachers’ E-lessons. In short, students had better take advantage of online learning effectively with a view to getting good study results.
