C. READING
I)-Kead the passage, and then decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).
Family rules help children understand which behaviors are acceptable and not acceptable.
As children grow, they will be in places where they have to follow rules. Following rules at
home can help children learn to follow rules in other places.
It is normal for children to break rules and test limits. Breaking a rule is a child’s way of
learning about his world. Remember, young kids sometimes break rules because they simply
forget. N ot all broken rules occur because kids are testing the limits.
For family rules to work well, everyone needs to know, understand, and follow the rules.
By doing this, children don’t get confused about the family rules. For example, you may feel
that jumping on the bed is a dangerous behavior. You set a family rule that, “The bed will be
used only for sitting, lying, or sleeping.” If another adult jumps on the bed, your child may be
confused. Your child may think this behavior is sometimes okay. This is true for parents,
grandparents, or any other adult in your child’s life.
The number of rules you set depends on your child’s ability to understand and remember.
It is also hard for parents to consistently enforce lots o f new rules. For young children, focus

on only two or three of the most important rules at any one time. As your child leams a rule
and is following it consistently, you can add new rules.

Ill-R ead the passage about parent teenager problems, and then answer the questions.
Parent Teenager Problems
Parent teenager problems are a common thing in most households. Reasons for problems
between teenagers and parents vary greatly, and each situation is different another, but there
are common reasons for parent teenager problems.
First, a teenager is getting bad grades at school.
This can cause a problem because the parents o f a
teen who is not getting the best grades in school will
be worried about him graduating from high school
and getting into college. Also, if a teen gets bad
grades, he probably will not get any scholarships for
school, which can be a hardship on parents.
Next, a teen is hanging out with a bad crowd. A
teenager who has friends that do things their parents
do not approve of can end up doing those things too,
and the teen's friends will probably not be received well by the parents.
Then, a parent who is very strict with their teenager will probably have problems with
him at some point. It is important to be firm, but not very firm, since this may make a
teenager want to rebel even more.
If you are having problems with your parents, you will probably want to fix them. Lack
o f communication causes a lot o f problems between parents and teenagers. It is important for
both parties to communicate. You should do things together with your parents, such as going
to a movie or playing board games, or go to a family counselor.
Fixing a family problem might seem hard, but as long as everyone communicates his or
her feelings, everything should work out in the end.

5. What are the ways to fix the problems between parents and their teens?

III)-Read the passage about family rules, and then answer the questions.
Just like any institution, a family also needs rules. Rules are very important because they
keep things in order. For a family, rules are as necessary as food and clothing. The rules are
very important because they maintain peace and order in the family. For example, children
should respect and listen to their parents.
If there are decisions to be made, for example, it is not only the parents who are going to
decide especially if the children are already grown up. It would be better if everybody is
involved in making the decision of important matters.
Rules are needed to maintain a harmonious relationship among family members. Parents are
there the pillars o f the family and to guide the children to be responsible and practise good values.
Rules teach children to become more responsible and have discipline not only at home
but especially outside o f the home. When there are rules to follow, the children will know
what they should and should not do. Rules help to avoid conflict and misunderstanding that
may lead to fights and aggression especially among children. Parents should set rules for the
children to follow to avoid quarrels and fights. There are times when children fight over
simple matters and this happens if the parents do not interfere but when parents set the rules
and let the children follow there will be fewer or no conflicts.

My problem is my mum! She’s really nice and I get on well with her. I sometimes argue
with her about little things, but nothing important. All my friends love her - she’s great
fun. When she was at my age, Madonna was really popular and Mum was a fan - she wore
miniskirts and leggings, lots of jewellery, and dyed her hair blond. I think she wanted to be
Madonna! She was only sixteen so it was okay. However, she still wears leggings and
short denim skirts now, and I can’t stand it. She even uploads photos o f herself onto her
homepage, so all my online friends can see her. What can I do?
Benny: Posted today at 13:21
You’re lucky to have a cool mum - my mum is so conservative. She wears baggy jeans,
and long skirts, and she never wears jewellery. Although she’s only thirty-seven,
everybody thinks she’s older because her clothes are old-fashioned. One friend even
thought she was my grandmother! Your mum should give my mum some fashion advice!

My mum got me a fantastic new laptop for my birthday, so when she wanted to be my
online friend, I couldn’t say no! Sometimes, she’s at work and I’m at home, and she wants
to have a real-time chat with me online! I just go offline. I love chatting to my friends, but
I can chat to Mum when I get home.
Ross: Posted yesterday at 17:26
Zoe, your mum wants to stay young, and why not? Her generation wore denim miniskirts
before our generation. You say she’s great fun - that’s more important than the clothes she
wears. Most parents don’t understand the virtual world, but you’re lucky - your mother has
a homepage and knows how to use it. I think that’s great. ©

group o f friends with the same interests, like cycling or hiking. Dating is done one-to-one and
both girls and boys ask each other out and split the cost o f the evening's entertainment.
In Russia, dates take place at dances or at clubs where teens eat or chat with friends. As
many as 30 teens m ay come to a cinema to attend a movie together. In small towns, teens
meet in the streets downtown or gather around a fountain.

Generation Gap
Generation gap is a popular (21)______ used to describe the wide differences between
members of younger generation and their older. A generation gap exists when older and
younger people don't understand each other ( 22 ) ______ their experiences, their opinions,
habits, behaviour and life conditions. Generation gap can exist between two, or even three
generations in a family, between mature and immature generations.
Firstly, there are some different opinions between parents and children of their career,
education and love. People live in the old society always think they should (23)______
everything for their children from selections of primary school to job, and then finding a wife
or a husband for their children. There are many things children want but their parents think
(24)______ are unnecessary. That causes misunderstanding and (25)_______gaps.
Secondly, the young generation thinks differently from the old generation does. They can

but the older generation likes listening to classical music, folk songs. There are always gaps
between generations.
Next, the older generation has more experiences than the younger: they know what is
right, what is wrong b u t the younger will comment, deny everything without any experiences.
(28) __ __, in some cases, the young generation makes foolish mistakes because of having
no experiences.

VI)-Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
It is generally accepted that teenage is a difficult period o f life for the teenagers and even
for the parents. Frequent fighting over the most trivial things is one main characteristic of
every household with a teenager.
Parents expect their children to come back home earlier. What parents consider the
reasonable time limit is not accepted by their teens. Curfew and time restrictions become one
o f the main reasons for fights.
Teenage is a time when a lot o f kids want to show their independence. The problem arises
when parents, fearing the safety of their teens, often refuse to give them their own bikes or
motorbikes. This, of course, leads to more fights.
A decrease in grades due to increasing difficulty level o f school work, newer subjects,
more socializing is very common among teens but their parents are not sympathetic. Parents
try to impose studying rules and insist that their teens finish their homework before going out.
This makes the situation worse.
That children spend too much time on the phone is one complaint that most parents have.
The age of smartphones has ensured that kids put their smartphones above almost everything
else. Parents, however, worry that teens spending too much time on their phones lose out on
family time and real human interaction, besides harming their eyes.
Teenagers develop a taste for unhealthy but delicious fast food, while parents believe that
a growing body needs proper nutrition. As cold drinks, burgers and pizzas replace
wholesome, home cooked meals, parents worry. Moreover, teenage is a time when kids
become more and more conscious o f their weight and body image. To achieve the ‘ideal’ thin
body type, girls often starve themselves and skip meals. O f course, this also leads to a lot of
arguments between parents who try to convince their daughters that proper meals are more
important than being thin.
31. Teenage is a difficult period o f life for both the teenagers and the parents because_____ .
A. children always do the most trivial things in every household

Generation Gap: Causes and Solutions
Parents have a common complaint that their children after a certain age tend to disrespect
them. They look for more freedom and enjoy the company o f their friends rather than staying
at home. These all are the changes when the kids grow from teenagers to adulthood. This is
the time when they want to be treated as big but the parents still consider them small. They
want to take their own decisions but they can’t because parents are there to take any important
decisions about their children. So these issues sometimes create a problem and this is when
the generation gap comes in.
There are lots of activities which interest the kids more but parents are not willing with it.
Instead o f arguing w ith children and avoiding the discussion, it will be good that parents take
a step forward and talk to their children.
Parents are the best friend o f their children as they act as both good parents and friends.
As parents have spent a large amount of their time with their kids, so it is necessary that
parents understand what their children are saying and how it can affect their life. Any
suggestions coming from parents can never be wrong, so teenagers should trust in them as
they always want their children to progress in life.
Communication is the best way to bridge the gap and find a perfect solution. Parents
should sit with their children and talk about their needs so that parents know their children’s
expectations. Parents can also listen to their problems and look for a solution which is best for
them. Parents mustn’t force them to do anything without interest but make them aware of
their duties so that they do it willingly. As you are dealing with teenagers, you need to keep
yourself in their situation and then think about it.
If parents feel that their children are disrespecting, they then tell that if their children want
respect, they need to give it to other people too. This is a lifetime lesson which they need to
learn as it is not limited to their home but also when they go out and work in any organization.
Children must understand their limitations. If they go beyond that, it will be difficult for
them. It is the duty o f the parents that they make their kids understand their limitation and
define a boundary for them. This is done for the benefit of the children so that they know what
is right and what is wrong for them.
31. One of the main reasons o f the generation gap is th a t______ .
A. children can m ake their own decisions
B. children were not able to make their own decisions
c . the problems o f the generation gap to be small
D. children are being treated as a child

I)-R ead Phong’s story and the counsellor’s answ er, and do the tasks that follow.
Phong: In my school, everyone has a few different groups of friends, such as in our own class.
I used to be rather popular in my class, if being popular meant that most of the girls in my
class were my friends and generally liked me. Then I fell out of this friendship with my “best
friend” because there were stuff about each other we didn't like, I guess, and we just stopped
hanging out together. After this, I started hanging out with this other clique in class I was
quite close with. However, this clique was not really popular in our class. The clique was
more on the "losers" side, although individually I guess most people were okay with them. As
time went by, I found m yself feeling more and more embarrassed to be in the same clique
permanently as them. I was not the most popular student in my school, but I think I was more
on the popular side because I knew quite a lot o f people in our level and I was on the football
team at school, where I think being in a sport made us more on the popular side. Furthermore,
I felt more and more unappreciated in my clique. I didn't think they really appreciated my
presence, and it feels like my being there or not made only a little difference to them, although
I'm not sure if this is true. They also always left me out in conversations, which I really hate,
and this makes me feel really sad.
Counsellor: I think you should be around people you like or want to be. The group being
unpopular is not a reason to leave them. If you are good enough then, you can make the group
popular. Choose friends who make you feel comfortable. Don't move in groups based on
popularity or you may never have people who truly appreciate you. Make good friends even if
they are a few. Don't compare your group with others or people may not trust you.
Task 1: Match a word in column A with its definition in column B, writing the answer in
each blank.
Answer A B
1. stuff (n) A. a small group o f people with the same
interests
2. hang out (phr v) B. not include someone

Peer pressure
Mary is walking to her maths lesson. She has got a test, but she feels all right. Suddenly,
Dan, the coolest boy in the class, speaks to her, “Come on!” he says. “Forget maths. Let’s go
into town!” Now M ary feels bad. She has to make a difficult decision. Should she go to maths
because that is the right thing to do, or should she take the chance to be friends with the most
popular person in the class?
If you have had an experience like this, don’t
worry. It is called peer pressure and it happens to
everybody. However, people have different reactions.
Confident people refuse to do tilings they don’t want
to do, but shy and anxious people often give in. It may
be because they want to be liked. It may be because
they worry that their friends will make fun o f them, or

new. Whatever the reason, some people end up doing
_____________________ ___ _______ things they really don’t want to do.
It is hard being the only one who says no and the question is - how do you do it? Firstly,
you must decide what you believe in. If you think that missing maths, or smoking, or going
somewhere you know your parents wouldn’t like is a bad idea then the answer is simple. Don’t
do it. It is your decision, not anybody else’s. You don’t need to shout and scream, but you must
be confident and you m ust be firm. You need to say, “No, thanks. I don’t want to do that.”
O f course, being on your own against everybody else is very hard, so it can really help to
have at least one other peer, or friend, who will say no too. Choose your friends carefully.
You want friends to support you when you are in trouble. You don’t want people who will
always agree with the majority. Remember, the most popular people aren’t always the most
trustworthy.
However, peer pressure is not completely negative. You can learn a lot from people of
your own age. They can teach you great football skills or the best way to do your maths

grown out of that a long time ago but was pleased to spend time with Peter again.
Mr. and Mrs. Nelson tried to notice every day when Peter achieved his goal of attending
school, being on time and remembering to do his homework. It took a little longer for Peter’s

VII)-Read the passage about the effects o f teenage relationships, and then answer the
questions.
Different relationships affect teenagers in various ways. Friends impact teenagers almost the
same amount as their parents. Teenagers go to their friends for help or to ask questions that they
could not ask their parents about. Most of the time their friends give them good advice. In most
cases they tell their friends how to dress and act when being around certain people.
Love relationships just make it even harder for a teenager to get a good education. Some
start to fail in school because they are hanging out with their boyfriend or girlfriend instead of
doing their work.

The Ability to Get from One Place to Another
One important life skill that teenagers need to learn in order to become independent, and
to generally be able to operate without their parents is transportation, or “getting from Point A
to Point B” . While it sounds simple, many teens do not have a good grasp o f this simple skill.
There is a bus to get to school and often, the family rely upon for transportation to go
anywhere else.
Always leaving this important life skill to parents can lead a child to develop the bad
habit o f never taking the responsibility of being where they need to be and blaming others for
being late or not showing up. That will hinder your teen's daily living and success.
Young adults have goals, dreams and responsibilities that will require them to know all
they can about different modes o f transportation.

Bai tap Tieng Anh 1 1 - 4 7

 Teens need to know “how to get there from here” . Therefore, parents need to give the
responsibility o f transporting themselves from one place to another to their teens as often as
possible. When parents do this, teens leam valuable transportation lessons.
Transportation lessons and experiences are taught in high school and some can be taught
by getting your teens involved with travel clubs or various youth events.
These life skills are learned best when taught by experience, but you can also use the
Internet to help w hen the concept o f using experience as a teacher is not readily applicable.
Give these lessons your best efforts as teaching your teens how to go where they need to on
their own will boost their confidence and add to their overall sense o f independence.
Task 1: Match a word in column A with its definition in column B, writing the answer in
each blank.

Why Do We Use Time-Management Skills?
It is important that you develop effective strategies for managing your time to balance the
conflicting demands o f time for study, leisure, and work. Time-management skills are
valuable not only in job-hunting, but also in many other aspects o f life: from revising for
examinations to working in a vacation job.
Sometimes it m ay seem that there isn't enough time to do everything that you need to.
This can lead to a build-up o f stress. When revising for examinations, or during your final
year when you have to combine the pressures of intensive study with finding time to apply for
jobs, good management o f your time can be particularly important. Once we have identified
ways in which we can improve the management o f our time, we can begin to adjust our
routines and patterns o f behaviour to reduce any time-related stress in our lives.

48 - Ltfu H oang T ri
 Some o f these skills include setting clear goals, breaking your goals down into several
steps, and reviewing your progress towards your goals.
Other skills involved include prioritising - focusing on urgent and important tasks rather
than those that are trivial or don't move you towards your goals; organising your work
schedule; list making to remind you of what you need to do.
Task 1. Read the text and select the statement that expresses its main idea.
A. Priority makes us have time-management skills and focus on urgent and important tasks.
B. Time-management skills help us do better in study and work and enjoy life more.
C. Good skills to deal with work may help you a lot in job-hunting after graduation.

5. What does the skill o f priority mostly involve?

IV)-Read the text, and then do the tasks that follow.

Research from a variety of perspectives reveals that when we push our children to be
independent before they’re ready, it can often be counterproductive, making them more
dependent instead. For example, if a toddler is afraid to be alone at bedtime, and the parent
forces him to do so, the feeling o f fear once the parent closes the door may amplify. The next
night, this fear and panic and dependence are even greater because, while you may have been
ready for that move toward independence, your child was not. When children are afraid and
their parents push them too hard too soon, they will often feel flooded with uncomfortable
emotions and bodily sensations.

Bài tâp Tiéng Anh 11 - *td

 It is demonstrated that there’s a line we must walk in terms o f how far we push our kids
outside o f their comfort zone in order to successfully promote independence. If parents don’t
push at all, the child will stay confined within her comfort zone and w on’t overcome her
discomfort and fear about taking on new independence or a new experience.
When parents push their children gently, incrementally and with lots o f support, children
learn to tolerate more, and they begin to have experiences that let them feel stronger and more
independent. For example, when a mother wanted to help his son not feel so fearful about
going to the bathroom or upstairs without her, she would sing loudly so he could hear she was
close, but not right next to him. He saw that he could feel comfortable doing these things
without his mother.
Task 1: Match a word in column A with its definition in column B, writing the answer in
each blank.
A nsw er A B
1. perspective (n) A. full o f something
2. counterproductive (adj) B. existing only in a particular area
3. flooded (adj) C. having the opposite effect to the one which
was intended
4. confined (adj) D. little by little
5. incrementally (adv) E. a particular thought

Task 2. Answer the following questions.

6. When does the process o f making a child Independent become counter-productive?

1. Why did the child’s fear and panic, dependence seem to be greater the next night?

8. What will happen if parents don’t push their child at all?

9. What is the best way to help children more independent?

10. Why could the boy in the last paragraph feel comfortable?

V)-Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
An important part o f being an adult in the USA is becoming more independent from your
parents. First, make sure you are living somewhere rather than your parents' house. If your
parents own the property in which you live, they will have a say in how you maintain that
property. If you want to be independent and make your own decisions about how you live,
you will need to obtain your own housing that is completely separate from your parents both
physically and financially.
Second, generate your own income and be as financially self-sufficient as possible. One
of the main challenges in becoming independent as an adult is acquiring a sufficient income to

50 - Lufu Hoàng Tri

allow you to live without the financial assistance o f your parents. This can be particularly
difficult if you are still a university student, but it is not impossible. Seek scholarships and
part-time jobs. If you are no longer a student, find employment that offers a salary that can
cover your expenses. It may be necessary to obtain multiple sources o f income in order to
become financially self-sufficient and independent from your parents.
Next, budget your expenses carefully. When first becoming financially independent, it
may be necessary to cut back on some of your expenses and strictly stick to a budget.
Determine exactly what you can afford in terms o f rent, food, clothing, transportation and
entertainment based on your own income, create a budget. While you may experience a dip in
your standard o f living at first, learning how to follow a budget and be self-sufficient will help
you stay independent.
Finally, avoid relying on your parents as a first resort option for help o f any kind. This, in
no way, means that you may never ask your parents for help again, it just means that as an
independent adult, there should be other sources of support within your life that you can turn
to when necessary.
1. You need to have your own accommodation so th a t______ .
A. your parents can’t change your lifestyles and decisions
B. you have no relationship with your parents
C. your parents will have a say in how you maintain that property
D. you will be as financially self-sufficient as possible
2. All o f the following statements are true about acquiring your own income EXCEPT that

A. it allows you to become financially independent from your parents

B. you can’t earn a living when you are still a university student
C. you have to look for scholarships and part-time jobs as being a student
D. sometimes you have to do several jobs in order to earn enough money
3. An important task o f becoming financially independent o f your parents is tha t______ .
A. you learn how to set a budget that increases your standard of living
B. you have to cut back on your expenses sharply all the time
C. your salary can cover your medical and legal expenses
D. you have to plan a reasonable budget and obey it strictly
4. If you want to be entirely independent as an adult, .
A. you have to avoid relying on your parents whenever you are in trouble
B. you should never ask your parents for help again in any way

Living on your own might be something that you dream o f achieving some day, but at the
same time, the thought can be scary. You need an income, and then after that you need the
survival skills to take care of yourself without anyone there to support you.
This guide will help prepare you for that transition so that some day you can live
independently.
First, create a support network. We need people to be there for us and to also be honest
with us and tell us how we can improve ourselves. Preferably, this network will extend
beyond family members and include at least one close friend that you trust. Ultimately, when
you are living on your own, you might encounter many obstacles you have never thought of
and you will want someone there to be supportive of you and to help you as you navigate a
life o f independence.
Second, master your weaknesses. It is a good idea to try and be aware of your
weaknesses. If possible, have your close friend tell you what they feel are your biggest
weaknesses. It Is also good to know your strengths, but it is your weaknesses that you need to
work on. For instance, you might get very focused on playing video games for hours, maybe
days at a time. While it is okay to play video games, playing them for days at a time when
trying to live on your own can lead to you losing your job and also your house. So, it is
important that you recognize your weaknesses and do your best to work with them.
Next, learn to balance your schedule. It is important to learn how to do multiple things in
a day. You need to be flexible and willing to schedule time for activities, work, and social
engagements.
Then, live a healthy lifestyle. You should exercise and try to eat healthy. You also have to
maintain your hygiene or you might find yourself out o f a job.
Last but not least, follow your dreams and make them come true. Look through the
newspapers and online and find that apartment or house that you desire to live in. Decide that
you are going to move out and make it happen. Ultimately, living on your own is something
that you have to make happen for yourself. So, decide that is what you want and don’t allow
anything to deter you from your goal.
36. In order to live independently, you should______ .
A. dream o f achieving some day
B. need someone to support you in case o f emergency
C. not have the scary thought without anyone there to support you
D. have a job and the necessary life skills
37. The support network is very important because______ .
A. we don’t have any family member to trust or rely on
B. it helps us to improve ourselves and get over obstacles
C. we may think o f obstacles and we want someone to be supportive o f us
D. it can help us navigate a life of independence

It seems that there is never enough time in the day. But, since we all get the same 24

Improve Your Time-Managing Skills
It is common for all of us to take more tasks than our desired potential. This can often
result in stress and tiredness. Learn the art of sharing work with your partners based on their
skills and abilities.
Before the start o f the day, make a list of tasks that need your immediate attention as
unimportant tasks can consume much of your precious time. Some tasks need to be completed
on that day only while other unimportant tasks could be carried forward to next day. In short,
prioritize your tasks to focus on those that are more important.
Carry a planner or notebook with you and list all the tasks that come to your mind. Make
a simple “To Do” list before the start of the day, prioritize the tasks, and make sure that they
are attainable. To better manage your time-management skills, you may think o f making 3
lists: work, home, and personal.
Stress often occurs when we accept more work than our ability. The result is that our
body starts feeling tired which can affect our productivity. Instead, share tasks with your
partners and make sure to leave some time for relaxation.
Most o f the successful men and women have one thing in common. They start their day
early as it gives them time to sit, think, and plan their day. When you get up early, you are
more calm, creative, and clear-headed. As the day progresses, your energy levels start going
down, which affects your productivity and your performance as well.

Healthy Romantic Relationship Expectations
Relationships with friends, family, and romantic partners are often an important part of
our life experiences. While healthy relationships support life satisfaction and overall well­
being, unhealthy relationships can negatively affect general health as well as a person’s
school, work, and personal life.
We develop a sense of what we want in relationships through watching friends and family,
what we see in the media, and our own experiences. These needs and wants change throughout
our lives as we grow and learn about ourselves and others. Developing realistic expectations is
important to maintaining healthy relationships with people about whom we care.
People’s needs and desires change over time. Although we may hope that our partners
change or stay the same, there is no way to predict or control those changes. This can happen

Bai tap Tieng Anh 11 - 67

for you or your partner individually, but also for both o f you as a pair. Love and passion also
evolve throughout romantic relationships.
Sometimes we may wish or expect our partner to read our minds to know all o f our wants
and needs. This can cause miscommunication, a lack o f communication, and stress in a
relationship. In order for you and your partner to be more personally satisfied, practise open
and direct communication o f your wants and needs.
While people are often drawn to others with common interests, partners in healthy
relationships respect each other’s independence. Your partner has a right to their own
feelings, friends, activities, interests, and opinions. Demanding that your partner has the same
priorities, goals, and interests as you can be unhealthy for both o f you.

VI)-Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
The concept o f parental authority has changed. Today, no parent can take their children’s
respect for granted: authority has to be earned. Several studies have shown the following
problems.
Trust: A lot o f young people say their parents don’t trust them. Some o f them have no
privacy: their parents read all their emails, and enter their rooms without knocking.
All o f these actions demonstrate lack o f respect. Consequently, these teenagers
have little respect for their parents.
Communication: Hardly any teens discuss their problems with their parents. That’s because
very few teens feel their parents really listen to them. Instead, most parents tend to
fire off an immediate response to their kids’ first sentence.
Freedom: Interestingly, most rebels come from very authoritarian homes where kids have
very little freedom. Teens need fewer rules but they have to be clear and
unchangeable. Also, if the mother and father don’t agree about discipline, teens

68 - Leiu Hoang Trx

 have less respect for both parents. They also need a lot of support and a little
freedom to take their own decisions. None of them enjoy just listening to adults.
Role models: Teens don’t have much respect for their parents if neither o f them actually does
things that they expect their children to do. Like everybody, teens appreciate people
who practise what they preach.

and then answ er the questions.
Australia-funded school opens for disabled children
In 2009, the Australia-funded Sunrise Special School 2 was officially opened in Tan Phu
District, Ho Chi M inh City to provide vocational training for intellectually-disabled children.
Sunrise Special School 2 was built after Sunrise Special School 1 had become overcrowded
and many o f the children there were near the age to leave school. The construction was
funded by Loreto Vietnam Australia Programme, the Australian Agency for International
Development (AusAID) and donors from Australia.
Students would be taught skills in their life as well as skills in making greetings cards,
paintings and artificial flowers; sewing; massage; music; cooking and computer science in
line with their ability. Trish Franklin, coordinator of Loreto Vietnam Australia Programme,
which is one o f the main sponsors o f the school, said that this vocational training center
would aid intellectually-disabled children in entering life.
Australian Ambassador in Vietnam, Allaster Cox, told in the opening ceremony that the
two schools had made important foundations and education opportunities for young disabled
people in Ho Chi Minh City to better integrate into the community.
1. Why was Sunrise Special School 2 built?

2. By whom was the construction o f the school funded?

3. What are students taught at school?

4. In Trish Franklin’s opinion, what is the function o f the vocational training center?

5. What do the two Australia-funded schools offer to disabled children?

74 - Lufu H oang Tri

 id the text, and then do the tasks th a t follow.
Ho Chi Minh City has 15 special schools for the hearing-impaired, where about 2,000
students are enrolled. This figure is relatively low in comparison with the number of hearing-
impaired people in the city. Moreover, children with physical disabilities have to stop
studying at primary and junior secondary school because there is no facility for tertiary
education.
The year 2000 can be considered as a milestone for the hearing-impaired as the Nippon
Foundation launched a disability support project. The programme in Viet Nam provides
opportunities for secondary and high education for deaf and hearing-impaired students
through the medium o f sign language. Thanks to the programme, ten students have graduated
from college, and integrated in society.
Earlier, there was no facility for high education in the country and hearing-impaired
people had no choice but to self-study at home after finishing primary education. They hardly
made ends meet with low pays and exhausting jobs such as waiters or waitresses, parking lot
attendants or housekeepers.
Another reason is that there are only two teacher-training facilities for the hearing-
impaired; one provides preschool teachers and another primary teachers. In addition, there is a
shortage o f special tools needed to help disabled children hear.
The headmaster o f a special school for the disabled said that more than 80 hearing aids
are available in the school, donated by international organizations, some o f them in a poor
state but the school has no funds to replace them. Accordingly, students have to take turns to
use the devices resulting in ineffective training.
Another negative factor is that enterprises would rather not employ disabled people or
hearing-impaired workers, so disabled workers suffer from an inferiority complex at their
workplace. Besides, disabled people lack life skills and tend to be pessimistic towards life.
Task 1: Match a word/phrase in column A with its definition in column B, writing the
answer in each blank.
A nsw er A B
1. tertiary education A. businesses
2. make ends meet B. a feeling that you are not as good as others
3. enterprises C. college level
4. an inferiority complex D. believing that bad things will happen
5. pessimistic E. earn just enough money

Task 2. Answer the following questions.

6. Why don’t the special schools in Ho Chi Minh City meet the education needs of hearing-
impaired students?

secondary school?

In February 2010, Dr. Choi Young Suk decided to retire early at the age of 52 when she
was about to be appointed as vice principal of Daegu University. Dr. Choi’s husband, Kwon
Jang Soo, also gave up his car dealing business in South Korea to accompany her to Da Lat.
In July 2013, with an investment gained
from the sponsorship o f the Korea International
Cooperation Agency (KOICA) and her own
relations, Dr. Choi founded a Special Need
Education Assistance Center at Hoa Phong Lan
Handicapped School in Da Lat.
The Korean educator also incorporates
games and activities into her classes to boost
their reactions to language and music. Students
are instructed to m ake dishes and record their
own activities in videos and photos. The video clips and photos will later be shown to the
students to spur on their responses to language and spontaneous attempts to speak.
The woman showed them how to do mini-embroidery paintings on coffee companies’
product labels or girls’ ornaments. She then marketed and sold the students’ handicraft items
to her Korean friends and companies.
“Selling the products for money isn’t as important as helping the kids understand that
despite their physical disabilities, they still can do useful things, which is the purpose of
special need education,” Dr. Choi stressed.

Assistive Technology
A student with writing problems uses a digital keyboard with the main keys highlighted
so predictive text can do the rest, and a vision-impaired student uses the "speak the screen"
feature on her mobile device to listen to what is on the screen.

Bái tap Tieng Anh 11 - 77

 This type o f technology, also known as assistive
technology, is improving education for students with
physical or learning difficulties, helping them do tasks they
cannot normally do, or enabling them to do tasks better,
and to work in mainstream classes.
Switches, typically attached to the head or a hand, are
another useful technology that helps students with physical
impairments access devices and apps, including tablets,
interactive whiteboards, and ebooks. Students can control
wireless or Bluetooth-enabled switches with simple motions, including head movements,
voice activation, and controlled breathing.
Other assistive hardware includes smartpens such as Livescribe and Echo that record
lessons for students who have memory or note-taking problems. When reviewing their notes,
students can tap anywhere on their written notes and the corresponding audio is replayed.
People are using their mobile devices to play games, send messages and check emails.
The autistic student also has a mobile device, checking the daily timetable, reading a social
story in iBooks that has been created to help them self-regulate before meeting the staff with
whom they'll be working. The student also has headphones to listen to a guided meditation
app to help them focus and settle down before they get off the bus.
Task 1: Match a word in column A with its definition in column B, writing the answer in

VI)-Read the passage about the Agent Orange project, and choose the correct answ er A,
B, C or D for each question.
All o f our Viet Nam volunteer projects are focused on working for and with children.
Projects range from working with sick kids in hospitals, looking after children in Buddhist
temples, to providing much needed non-formal education to Ha N oi’s disadvantaged youth.
Volunteers will be provided with full orientation and assistance throughout the project.
The Agent Orange project opened more than 15 years ago to care for war veterans and
children suffering from the effects o f Agent Orange. Since then, it has grown into a complex
of 11 houses that care for a total o f 120 children and 40 veterans. The village is supported by
a highly committed and dedicated base of supporters who volunteer their time, energy and
resources to its projects.
From 1962 to 1971, during the war with Viet Nam, American forces sprayed well over 40
million liters o f the chemical defoliant, Agent Orange, over Southern Vietnam. However,
Agent Orange had not been adequately tested. The chemicals released during the 1960s
inflicted a legacy o f suffering on the Vietnamese. Precise figures are difficult to agree, but
there is no question that millions of people were exposed to the chemical. In the wake of this
exposure came liver damage, cancer, heart diseases, reproductive disorders and severe birth
defects.
The Agent Orange project is always in need of volunteers. Many o f the people who back
the organization spend time raising funds in North America and Europe, and that leaves
plenty more work to be done on the ground in Ha Noi. Regardless o f how volunteers lend a
hand to the community, their efforts directly help those who have been affected by Agent
Orange to live normal, happy and fulfilled lives. As with any undertaking of this size, there’s
always a great deal to be done, and that leaves plenty o f opportunity for volunteers to dig in.
1. The volunteer projects mentioned in the text offer______ .
A. focus on non-formal education to Ha N oi’s disadvantaged youth
B. help to disadvantaged children in various centres and with different needs
C. children to look after Buddhist temples or hospitals for sick kids
D. full orientation and assistance to children and volunteers throughout the project

Approximately one in two thousand people in Viet Nam has a significant hearing loss.
Students who have been deafened in early childhood can be very different to students who
have lost hearing later in life in terms o f educational disadvantage. For example, their range of
vocabulary may be limited, which in turn may affect their level of English literacy.

can be a challenge in an environment where much essential information is delivered
exclusively by word o f mouth.

 ■rtMst.«7«h..oiog* Students with a hearing loss may need to
use assistive technology to participate in class.
This assistive technology can be the laptop
where software such as Skype can be used to
deliver interpreters or captioning. For some, it
will be in the form o f listening devices. For
others, it will be a combination o f technology
that includes both listening devices and
computer based software.
The impact o f hearing loss can cause
delays in receiving learning material. Students who need information transcribed from tape
must sometimes w ait for a significant period of time for this to happen. This needs to be
considered in terms o f developing suitable timelines for the completion o f work for each
student.
Students with hearing loss may appear isolated in the learning environment. The
possibility for social contact and interaction with other students is often limited, and this
isolation or separateness may have an impact on learning. Participation and interaction in
tutorials may be limited. Students who cannot hear the flow and nuances o f rapid verbal
exchange will be at a disadvantage.

 /II) P fa d the passage, and choose the correct answ er A, B, C or D for each question.
One o f the most amazing developments I’ve seen in education over the past ten years is
the way that technology has created a revolution in possibilities for disabled learners.
Text-to-Speech software helps students with visual impairments by allowing them to
listen to the text that appears on a computer screen. This is a huge improvement over Braille
because once the programme is installed on the computer, it can read anything on the screen,
no matter what format it is in - pdf or website - with no waiting for a Braille translation. This
enables students to participate in online activities, use email and text, and have immediate
access to course materials.
Visual aids include screen magnification software that enlarges portions o f the screen
where the reader directs the mouse, screen reader software that translates screen text to
Braille, text-to-speech programmes, or audio texts. All o f these can be used by students of
many different kinds o f visual disabilities.
Audio aids include alerting devices that use flashing lights or icons on the computer
screen rather than sounds to signal users, close-captioning for videos, TDD also known as
Telecommunication for the Deaf, and phones with Voice-Carry-Over technologies that allow
students with hearing difficulties to communicate over the phone with their own voice.
For students with physical disabilities, several technologies are available to assist them in
completing their schoolwork, including audio books for students who cannot physically
handle books, keyboard adapters such as keyguards to prevent mistyping from tremors or loss
o f control, or voice recognition software for students who cannot type.
Online education also helps disabled students because some o f them study better in an
environment with limited distractions and more accessibility than might be available in many
classrooms or on very large campuses.
36. With Text-to-Speech software, students with visual impairments can ______ .
A. read the texts that appear on the computer screen in any format - pdf or website
B. participate in online activities with the help o f a Braille expert or teacher
C. create a revolution in possibilities for disabled learners in their study and daily life
D. recognize anything inserted in the computer and have better telecommunication

A. it can enlarge portions of the screen where the reader directs the mouse
B. it can magnify the Braille text so that the student can read it more easily
C. it can translate screen text to Braille so that the student can read it
D. it can transform normal texts into audio texts so that the student can hear them
38. With audio aids, students with hearing impairments c an ______ .
A. have very little telecommunication B. give sounds to signal other users
C. have more chances to read texts D. hear conversations on the phone
39. Modem technologies can h elp ______ .

Batik Skirts in the South
Although there is disagreement on the origins o f batik, most agree the colorful cloth
reached Java in Indonesia by the 7th century. Its production technique spread throughout the
island, then over the centuries batik spread to Sumatra and north into M alaysia’s coastal areas
and southern Thailand.
Javanese batik displays the peoples’ view of the
universe. Three traditional, easy-to-obtain colours are
used - indigo, brown, and white - which represent the
three major Hindu Gods: Brahma, Vishnu and Siva.
Nobility have special patterns, with wider stripes or
wavy lines indicating a higher rank.
Sumatra’s batik dates to the 13th century. Sumatra’s
ethnic groups have their own styles o f batik, which use
clay for the dye. Other Indonesian islands have batik
similar to those found in Java and Sumatra.
The first introduction o f Malaysian batik is in the
17th century. Today, tourists can find Malaysian batik on
the east coast in Johor, Kelantan, Terengganu and
Pahang. Motifs tend to be of plants but geometric shapes as human and animal images are
taboo.
Batik finally made its way to southern Thailand, and locals still wear it as their daily
clothes or as uniforms at work. Themes vary from the islands landscape and important parts
o f island culture such as coconut shells, palm trees, tropical flowers, and fishing boats.
Batik, has made a significant contribution to Singapore’s arts scene, with traditional and
contemporary presentations.
So critical is batik to the Javanese and all of Indonesia that in 2009, UNESCO designated
Indonesian batik as a Masterpiece of Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity.

Silk Weaving in the ASEAN Region
For the silk textile lover, the ASEAN region contains a
treasure trove o f the most beautiful hand-woven fabrics found
anywhere in the world. These textiles are surprising in their
diversity: from the ikats o f Cambodia and Thailand, to the
golden songket o f Indonesia and Malaysia, to the
Philippine pina silk and the Vietnamese silk shantung - each
country offers its own century-old weaving traditions to visitors.
Weaving at the household and village level is done on
large wooden frame looms, often under stilt houses.
Intricate Cambodian ikats are world-renowned. It can take
up to several days o r more to produce one meter o f an
intricate ikat pattern. Ikat patterns were traditionally
passed from generation to generation by memory; prior to
the war, more than 200 different patterns were known to
be in existence, but it is unclear how many have survived.
Artisans Angkor, located in both Siem Reap and Phnom Penh, trains young Cambodians from
rural areas in the art o f weaving and other Cambodian crafts.
In Thailand, the cultivation o f silkworms and weaving can be traced back thousands of
years. Weaving patterns o f Thailand’s finest weaving, including mudmee, or ikat, are rich and

108 - Liiu H oang T ri

diverse thanks to the influence of the different ethnic groups, including Khmer and Lao
peoples. Mudmee is woven throughout the northeast, with each local community having its
own distinct styles and designs, incorporating everything from nagas to elephants and
peacocks. While chemical dyes are widely available, some weavers continue to practice
traditional dyeing methods passed down through the generations.
Viet Nam has become a center for large-scale silk worm and thread production
in Southeast Asia, including handloomed silk shantung and jacquards, supplying its neighbors
where sericulture is limited or disappeared entirely during the war years. Vietnam has 54
different ethnic groups, each with their own distinct weaving traditions. Among the Black
Thai in northwest Vietnam’s Son La province, for example, young girls are expected to learn
how to raise silk worms and make natural dyes using indigo.
36. What is the most distinguished feature o f the silk textile in ASEAN?
A. It helps foreign visitors look for treasures o f valuable things.
B. You can find different types of silk from anywhere in the world.

THE ASEAN UNIVERSITY NETWORK

It is clear that the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, or ASEAN, established in
1967, has achieved remarkable progress in strengthening the ties and promoting cooperation
among countries in Southeast Asia, especially in terms of cultural, economic, and social
collaborations. However, it was not until the Fourth ASEAN Summit in 1992 that cooperation

attention of the ASEAN leaders.
The idea was later developed into the ASEAN University Network (AUN). The network
was founded in November 1995 with the original number o f 13 universities in ASEAN member
countries. After the enlargement of ASEAN by the ASEAN Charter in 1997 and 1999, the AUN
membership increased to 20 member universities, with the addition o f two universities from
Myanmar, three from Laos, Malaysia, and Cambodia, and two from Indonesia.
The main objective o f the AUN is to strengthen the existing network o f cooperation
among universities in ASEAN by promoting collaborative studies and research programmes.
Furthermore, the AU N attempts to promote cooperation and solidarity among scientists and
scholars in the region and to develop academic and professional human resources as well as to
spread scientific knowledge and information among the universities in the region.

Angkor was an early civilization that flourished in north-western Cambodia from the

Buddhist or Hindu mythology decorate the walls o f the temples.
One o f the temples, Angkor Wat, is probably the finest architectural monument in
Cambodia. It has a pyramidal form which imitates the mythological home o f the Hindu gods.
Angkor Wat was constructed in the 1100’s to honour the Hindu god Vishnu. It was also used

so that the earth is kept warm. For the past
10,000 years, this heat was kept the earth at
regular temperatures. However, over the past
100 years, scientists have noticed higher levels
of carbon dioxide. More carbon dioxide means
more heat, which means higher temperatures
on Earth. W e’ve already seen some consequences of global warming. Nine o f the ten warmest
years in history have occurred in the last fifteen years. Ground that has been frozen since the
last Ice Age is melting. There are more hurricanes and disastrous storms than ever before.
So, what do you think is causing global warming? What, if anything, should we do about it?
Post your comment.

Gloria: The earth is warmer by only 1 degree Fahrenheit. Talk to me when it’s 7 degrees
warmer.
Sam: Climate has changed many times in the history o f our planet. It is only natural. Let’s not
lose sleep over it, alright?
Kris: I totally disagree! Climate change is natural, but what is happening today is not! Global
warming is the fault o f everyone who drives a car, flies on a plane, builds factories, and cuts
trees. All o f that creates more CO2 . We must stop damaging our planet for future generations.
We must urge our government leaders to control industries that harm the air.
Winston: The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reported after reviewing
the scientific research that it is more than 90% certain that humans are causing global
warming. Gases from cars and factories are causing temperatures to rise. We need to do
something before it’s too late!
Linda: 90% certain leaves 10% uncertain. The IPCC has lots of errors and is exaggerated. It
isn’t only the cars and factories that are causing global warming. What about the changes in
the sun’s brightness during its 11-year solar cycle? It causes temperatures to increase.
Erupting volcanoes can produce lots o f carbon dioxide, too.
Task 1: Answer the questions.
1. What is global warming?

2. What are the effects o f global warming?

3. What did the IPCC’s report say?

4. What are the two possible human causes of global warming?

5. What are the two possible natural causes of global warming?

Task 2: Read the comments. Would the bloggers agree or disagree with the statement.
Circle the correct answer.
6. Gloria would agree/ disagree with this statement: “Global warming is not a problem.”
7. Winston would agree/ disagree with this statement: “Global warming is a natural event.”
8. Sam would agree/ disagree with this statement: “Changes must be made to deal with
global warming.”
9. Kris would agree/ disagree with this statement: “Global warming is caused by people.”
10. Linda would agree/ disagree with this statement: “IPCC is a reliable source for
information about global warming.”

II)-R ead the passage, and then decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).
Consequences of Global Warming on Wildlife
Increasing global temperatures are expected to harm ecosystems, pushing extinction to
those species that cannot adapt. The first comprehensive assessment of the extinction risk
from global warming found that more than 1 million species could be extinct by 2050 if the
current rate continues.
A recent study o f nearly 2,000 species o f plants and animals discovered movement
toward the poles at an average rate o f 3.8 miles per decade.

Bai tap T iing Anh 11 - 125

 The latest climate change report found that approximately 20 to 30 percent o f plant and
animal species assessed so far are likely to be at increased risk o f extinction if global average
temperature increases by more than 2.7 to 4.5 degrees Fahrenheit.
Some polar bears are drowning because they have to swim longer distances to reach ice
floes. The U. S. Geological Survey has predicted that two-thirds o f the world's polar bear
populations will be extinct by the mid-century due to melting o f the Arctic ice cap.
The ocean will continue to become more acidic due to carbon dioxide emissions. Because
o f this acidification, species with hard calcium carbonate shells are vulnerable, as are coral
reefs, which are vital to ocean ecosystems. Scientists predict that a 3.6 degree Fahrenheit
increase in temperature would wipe out 97 percent o f the world's coral reefs.

Ill)-R ea d the passage, an d then decide w hether the statem ents are tru e (T) or false (F).
Global warming is primarily a problem o f too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere,
which acts as a blanket, trapping heat and wanning the planet. Globally, the average surface
temperature has increased more than one degree Fahrenheit since the late 1800s. Most of that
increase has occurred over just the past three decades.
We are overloading our atmosphere with
carbon dioxide, which traps heat and steadily
drives up the planet’s temperature. Carbon
dioxide comes from the fossil fuels we bum for
energy, such as coal, natural gas, and oil, and the
loss o f forests due to deforestation, especially in
the tropics.
Within the scientific community, there is no
debate. Most scientists agree that global warming
is happening and that human activity is the primary cause.
Global warming is already having significant and costly effects - and these consequences
will only intensify as the planet’s temperature continues to rise. Global warming is
accelerating the rate o f sea level rise and dramatically increasing coastal flooding risks.
Climate change has significant effects for our health, including increased air pollution and a
longer and more intense allergy season.
We must significantly reduce the heat-trapping emissions we are putting into the
atmosphere. As individuals, we can help by taking action to reduce our carbon footprint.
Tropical deforestation accounts for about 10 percent o f the world’s heat-trapping emissions.

126 - Liiu Hoang Tri

Reducing tropical deforestation can significantly lower global warming emissions and plays
an integral role in a long-term solution to global warming.
Sometimes it is difficult to achieve meaningful solutions to global warming because
misinformation about the truth of global warming misleads and confuses the public and
makes it more difficult to carry out effective solutions.

IV)-Read the text, and then do the tasks that follow.

Choose Clean Energy and Help Curb Global Warming
Fossil fuels such as oil, coal, and natural gas provide energy for our cars and homes, but
increase the amount o f carbon dioxide in the air, contributing to global warming. However,
there are choices we can make that can lessen their negative impact on the environment.
Get moving - Take good care o f your car and keep your tires properly inflated with air. You
will use less gasoline and save money. Better yet, skip the drive and walk, take
public transportation, or ride a bicycle when you can.
Upgrade - Replace your old refrigerator or air-conditioner with a new energy-efficient
model. Not only will you save money on your electric bill, but you’ll contribute
to cutting back on the pollution that causes global warming.
See the light - Use new energy-saving compact fluorescent light bulbs. They produce the
same amount o f light as older incandescent bulbs, but they use 25% less
electricity and last much longer.
Cut back - Try to reduce the amount o f water you use for showers, laundry, and washing
dishes. And turn the temperature on your hot water heater down.
Recycle - Use products that are recycled from old paper, glass, and metal to reduce energy
waste and pollution by 70% to 90%. And before you toss things in the garbage,
think about what you can reuse.
Think local - Shipping foods over long distances is a waste of energy and adds to pollution.
In addition, the pesticides and chemicals used to grow them are bad for the
environment. So buy locally grown fruits and vegetables instead.

Global warming: Causes, Impact and Prevention

The rise in the earth’s surface temperature as a consequence o f greenhouse effect is called
global warming. Deforestation and industrial emissions result in an increase in greenhouse
gases (such as carbon dioxide) around the earth’s atmosphere. These greenhouse gases trap
and absorb atmospheric heat and ultimately cause global warming.
If global warming continues, the world would be in danger. (1)______________________

Global warmin g is causing climate change because the world is becoming warmer and
warmer. One major consequence o f global warming is the rise in sea level. (2)_____________

Therefore, the coastal

cities and ports may be submerged under sea water. (3)

Problems o f w ater availability are likely to be more serious and perhaps more expensive
to solve. (4)______________________________________________________________________
