Read the following passage about endangered languages and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions.

In recent years, the world has faced numerous environmental challenges, ranging from climate change to the increasing use of single-use plastics. While economic growth remains a priority for many nations, the consequences of industrial development have led to rising global warming and the loss of endangered species. Deforestation, pollution, and contamination of natural resources have also caused irreparable damage to ecosystems.

However, some initiatives have been implemented to combat these issues. For example, the installation of solar panels and the promotion of renewable energy are seen as effective solutions to reduce carbon emissions. Similarly, introducing recycling bins in both residential and built-up areas has encouraged waste management and reduced plastic waste.

In rural areas, the preservation of meadows, streams, and orchards plays a key role in maintaining local biodiversity. Natural disasters such as droughts, wildfires, andhurricanes further exacerbate these challenges, often leaving communities inextreme povertyand suffering agony from the aftermath.

On a positive note, the growing number of eco-warriors and environmental campaigns worldwide shows that public awareness is increasing. With compassionate efforts and international cooperation, some believe that it’s still possible to mitigate these environmental threats and save the planet for future generations.

Which of the following environmental problems is NOT mentioned in the passage?

Read the following passage about the urban shift and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions.

Traditional media losing revenues to social media

Traditional media, such as newspapers and magazines, are experiencing declining revenues due to rising competition from social media, government officials and analysts say. Deputy Minister of Communications Nguyen Huy Dung stated at a forum last Friday that newspapers and magazines saw their revenues decrease by 9.4% in the first nine months of last year.

The situation is even worse for radio and TV, which saw a 23% decline in revenue. It was mentioned that most

broadcast companies are not using all their advertisement slots because there is a lack of demand. Some broadcasters sell advertisements for only a few minutes a day, even though the law allows them to use 10% of their broadcast time for ads for non-subscribers and 5% for subscribers.

Advertisements remain the main source of income for media companies and could account for 90% of their revenues. However, the rise of social media platforms like Facebook and Google is taking away their customers. Some newspapers have tried to adopt a subscription model, but this approach is still new in Vietnam and brings modest income. Analysts speaking at the forum also spoke about these challenges.

Nguyen Thanh Lam, another deputy communications minister, mentioned that the ministry plans to make changes to the Journalism Law to help improve media companies’ revenues.
