Đề bài

Read the passage and decide whether the following statements are true (T), false (F) or not given (NG).
The most common type of harassment youth encounter online is name-calling. Some 42% of teens say they have been called offensive names online or via their cell phones. Additionally, about a third (32%) of teens say someone has spread false rumours about them on the internet, while smaller shares have had someone other than a parent constantly ask where they are, who they're with or what they're doing (21%) or have been the target of physical threats online (16%).

While texting and digital messaging are a central way teens build and maintain relationships, this level of connectivity may lead to potential problems. One-quarter of teens say they have been sent offensive images they didn't ask for, while 7% say someone has shared their offensive images without their knowing. These experiences are particularly concerning to parents. Fully 57% of parents of teens say they worry about their teen receiving or sending offensive images, including about one-quarter who say this worries them a lot, according to a separate Center survey of parents.
The vast majority of teens (90% in this case) believe online harassment is a problem that affects people of their age, and 63% say this is a major problem. But majorities of young people think key groups, such as teachers, social media companies and politicians are failing to tackle this issue. By contrast, teens have a more positive assessment of the way parents are addressing cyberbullying.

Mai: Yes, I think we should promote issues that affect a lot of people in our city, such as crime and overpopulation.

Nam: I like your ideas, Mai, but I think we should plan our campaign around social issues that directly affect teenagers like us.

Mark: Can you give us some examples?

Nam: Well, bullying, peer pressure, and body shaming, for instance, are major problems among teenagers today although many people don’t feel comfortable talking about them.

Mai: I agree with you. Hmm... so Mark, what do you think? Should we focus our campaign on a general social issue or one affecting mainly teens?

Mark: Hmm. I think this time we should focus on a problem teens struggle with every day because this won't be a big campaign. However, we'll try to use your ideas for another project, Mai.

Teen's life

I don't want to be the odd one out!

"My parents don’t want me to hang out with my friends from school. They think those friends have a bad influence onme. They aren’t happy that instead of going home after school, we go to games centres to play video games. But I think it’s fun, and! don’t want to lose my friends," Thanh, 17.

“One day I coloured my hair and painted my finger nails. My parents got so angry with me. I know that this is not allowed at school, but all the girls in my group of friends did the same. I don’t want to be the odd one out!" Van, 16.

[ A ] The emails we have received from teenagers this week point to the effects of peer pressure, which is when you do things because you want to be accepted or valued by your friends. If teens fail to do what their group of friends want them to do, they may not be accepted or may even be bullied.

[ B ] In many cases, peer pressure can lead to depression, low self-confidence, distance from family and poor school performance. It can also lead to bigger social issues. It was reported that 70% of teenage smokers surveyed in the US said that they started smoking because they had friends who were smoking.

[ C ] It is not always easy to stand up to peer pressure, but sooner or later you need to decide what is best for you. Choose the right friends, learn to say no when you don’t feel comfortable and don’t hesitate to talk to an adult when the situation looks dangerous. And remember it’s sometimes OK to be "the odd one out". 

1. hang out

a. a belief in your own ability to do things well

2. pressure

b. the state of feeling very sad and without hope for the future

3. depression

c. the act of trying to force someone to do something by arguing, persuading, etc

SOCIAL PROBLEMS FACING TEENS IN THE US TODAY

 

In many countries around the world, it is not easy growing up because teens are dealing with many socialissues. A study carried out by a famous research centre in the US found out that the following were among the most serious ones.

Anxiety and depression: Seven in ten teenagers considered them a serious problem among their peers. The main source of teenagers’ anxiety and depression was social pressure, such as the pressure to look good, to fit in social groups, and to be good at sport.

Bullying: 55% said that bullying was a major problem for teenagers, and around 15% admitted that they had experienced some form of cyberbullying. Girls or younger students were more likely to be victims of bullying.

Poverty: Four out of 10 teens said that poverty was also a major problem for them. In fact, about 20% of the teens in the survey struggled to live below the poverty line every day.

The survey results suggest that more support should be provided to help teenagers avoid serious social issues and enjoy a happier life.

(cần có giải pháp tốt hơn)

2. surprising solutions around the world

(giải pháp đáng ngạc nhiên trên toàn thế giới)

Living in cities has many benefits as well as challenges. Many cities are looking for creative solutions in order to solve their problems.

(1) __________ of green spaces

Cities often don't have enough green spaces. This can have a bad effect on our physical and mental health. Some cities have looked upward in order to find room for trees. In 2015, Hamburg-Germany developed the Green Roof Strategy so that they would have green spaces on the rooftops of buildings. The city would give people up to a hundred thousand euros if they built green roofs. Their goal was to have gardens on at least 70% of suitable roofs.

Crime

You'll be surprised to know that green spaces can help reduce crime rates. In 2011, Youngstown-Ohio allowed people to turn its empty spaces into green spaces. Then, did a study and found out that crime decreased where the empty spaces were cared for. Community gardens helped reduce the crime rate in Youngstown the most.

Pollution

During the 2008 Summer Olympics, Beijing-China banned cars on different days depending on the license plate numbers. The result was a clear blue sky for the first time in ages. The city still continues this ban but only one day a week.

In Freiburg-Germany, the neighborhood of Vauban makes it very difficult to own a car so that people will walk, bike, or use the public transportation instead. Cars can only be parked in a garage on the edge of the neighborhood. In return for life without cars, people can buy cheap houses and enjoy free bus and train rides.

a. Read John's essay about social media addiction and choose the best introduction sentence.

(Đọc bài luận của John về chứng nghiện mạng xã hội và chọn câu giới thiệu hay nhất.)

1. One problem affecting teenagers in the USA is social media addiction.

 (Một vấn đề ảnh hưởng đến thanh thiếu niên ở Hoa Kỳ là nghiện mạng xã hội.)

2. Today, more teens use social media than ever before.

 (Ngày nay, nhiều thanh thiếu niên sử dụng mạng xã hội hơn bao giờ hết.)

____________________________. This essay will look at the causes and effects of this problem. The first cause of social media addiction is the social media apps. The apps are designed to make people keep using them by knowing exactly what they like to read, watch, and look at and showing you it when you turn on the app. This means you will always see new interesting content. The second cause of social media addiction is the need to create an attractive "online life”. For some teens, it is more important to be cool and popular online than offline. They spend hours every day trying to create the perfect "online life."

The first effect of social media addiction is it causes low self-esteem. This means you do not feel confident in yourself. Seeing photos of others having fun makes you feel sad because you do not have the same experiences. The second effect of social media addiction is it damages your "offline life." Relationships with friends and family get damaged because teens are distracted by social media.

In conclusion, social media addiction is a problem for teens in the USA. It is caused by apps and the importance of a cool "online life," and results in low self-esteem and problems in your "offline life."

Making a difference

Changing the world is a difficult task, isn't it? Thankfully, there are amazing non-profit organisations that aim to help people in need around the world. Here are two of them.

 

Action Against Hunger

Action Against Hunger is a non-profit organisation that focuses on dealing with the issue of world hunger. This charity began its efforts in 1979 and has worked nonstop to help hungry people since then. Action Against Hunger gives life-saving care to people who have experienced hunger due to war, natural disasters and other major crises. In addition, they run educational programmes in which the poor are taught how to recognise the symptoms of poor nutrition. Action Against Hunger also conducts research to understand how we can predict and prevent hunger on a global scale. The organisation works in more than 50 countries and currently has more than 8,000 workers supporting approximately 26 million people worldwide.

 

The Global Fund

The Global Fund is a community that aims to build a better future for everyone by fighting disease around the world. In particular, the organisation focuses on ending AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria that affect people in most poor regions of the world. By uniting leaders from around the world for donations, the Global Fund is able to raise money for their goal. On average, they raise approximately $4 billion every year to fight life-threatening diseases, and they invest that money in improving medical facilities in over 100 different countries. Since its 2002 establishment, the Global Fund has helped save more than 50 million lives through the programmes it supports.

UNESCO - Fighting Against World Poverty

What can we do to reduce global poverty? There are many organisations and charities that work to help people in need around the world. UNESCO is one of the leading organisations fighting against global poverty. While many anti-poverty organisations help mostly by providing humanitarian aid, UNESCO helps in a different way to end this global issue. It fights against poverty by improving education in poor areas of the world with the help of international cooperations.

The organisation believes that through education, societies can develop their economy and reduce poverty. By developing and sharing knowledge globally, each community becomes stronger and more independent.

Therefore, UNESCO promotes global education and works to make sure every person has access to education.

UNESCO has created over 1,000 projects and groups, such as the UNESCO Associated Schools Network, to develop education. This network has more than 11,500 educational organisations from 182 countries as members and it focuses on modern teaching and international understanding. The network works both locally and internationally to develop education and the exchange of ideas.

In 2021, educational and government leaders from over 40 countries met at the UNESCO headquarters in Paris for the Global Education Meeting (GEM) to discuss the ways of improving education globally. These countries agreed to increase funding to education and international aid to education where needed.

UNESCO's work to stop poverty has been very effective in helping millions of people around the world. Through its many projects and programmes, UNESCO teaches and strengthens communities to overcome social problems and become an active part of the global community.

A Year as a Volunteer

Hey everyone! About a year ago, I started volunteering to help the homeless. Here's what I do.

When I first started as a volunteer, I tried to meet and speak to as many people as I could. To my surprise, many of the homeless people in my town were just very unlucky. A lot of them just lost their jobs because the companies they worked for were closing down. Then, they couldn't pay rent and ended up living in the street. Without an address, it then becomes very difficult for them to earn wages or receive benefits. Fortunately, we can help them with that.

As a volunteer, I help people to set up bank accounts and register as jobseekers by using a local job centre for their postal address. In this way, they can receive social welfare benefits that help them to pay for things like food and clean clothes. Then, I help them find rooms to rent. Finally, I assist them with writing CVs and applying for jobs. My job isn't done until they have a job and a home, though. So, I still keep in touch with them for a few months to make sure everything goes well.

In my time here, I have helped many people. It has been a challenge and I have learned a lot. It's such a great feeling to give someone the chance to change their life. I highly recommend volunteering to anyone who has some free time!

Bài 23 :

a. Read about three cities. What type of text is this?

(Đọc về ba thành phố. Đây là kiểu văn bản gì?)

1. a newspaper article

2. a blog

3. an email

 

Last week, I wrote about my three worst cities in the world so that you guys would know where NOT to visit. This week, I’ll tell you about my three best cities.

Cost of living: Quito, Ecuador

This South American city is well known for its low cost of living. Lots of people visit Quito in order to enjoy Ecuadorian food. The street food in Quito is famous because it’s delicious, and it’s really cheap, too! I’ve tried street food in many countries, but the cheapest and best street food was in Quito!

Security: Tokyo, Japan

Tokyo has a very low crime rate. I studied in Tokyo for a year when I was a university student, and I always felt very safe and welcome. One evening after class, I caught a train back to my apartment. I was so tired that I left my laptop on a seat in the station! I went back the next day in order to talk to the station staff, and my laptop was still on the seat! I thought I was very lucky. However, my Japanese friends told me that this is normal in Tokyo!

Nature: Helsinki, Finland

If you want to visit a city with fresh air and clean water, try Helsinki. In Helsinki, you are never more than ten minutes away from nature. Nature is great for our mental health. The government protects and takes care of the parks and forests so that the local people can enjoy nature any time.

So, there you have it. These are my three best cities. What do you think? Do you have a favorite city of your own?

Tạm dịch:

Tuần trước, tôi đã viết về ba thành phố tệ nhất trên thế giới của mình để các bạn biết những nơi KHÔNG nên đến thăm. Tuần này, tôi sẽ kể cho bạn nghe về ba thành phố tuyệt vời nhất theo quan điểm tôi.

Chi phí sinh hoạt: Quito, Ecuador

Thành phố Nam Mỹ này nổi tiếng với chi phí sinh hoạt thấp. Rất nhiều người ghé thăm Quito để thưởng thức ẩm thực của Ecuador. Ẩm thực đường phố ở Quito nổi tiếng vì vừa ngon, vừa rẻ nữa! Tôi đã thử thức ăn đường phố ở nhiều quốc gia, nhưng thức ăn đường phố ngon nhất và rẻ nhất là ở Quito!

An ninh: Tokyo, Nhật Bản

Tokyo có tỷ lệ tội phạm rất thấp. Tôi đã học ở Tokyo một năm khi còn là sinh viên đại học, và tôi luôn cảm thấy rất an toàn và được chào đón. Một buổi tối sau giờ học, tôi bắt một chuyến tàu trở về căn hộ của mình. Tôi đã quá mệt mỏi đến nỗi tôi đã để máy tính xách tay của mình trên một chiếc ghế trong nhà ga! Tôi quay lại vào ngày hôm sau để nói chuyện với nhân viên nhà ga, và máy tính xách tay của tôi vẫn ở trên ghế! Tôi nghĩ rằng tôi đã rất may mắn. Tuy nhiên, những người bạn Nhật Bản của tôi nói với tôi rằng điều này là bình thường ở Tokyo!

Thiên nhiên: Helsinki, Phần Lan

Nếu bạn muốn đến thăm một thành phố có không khí trong lành và nước sạch, hãy thử đến Helsinki. Ở Helsinki, bạn không bao giờ rời xa thiên nhiên quá mười phút. Thiên nhiên rất tốt cho sức khỏe tinh thần của chúng ta. Chính phủ bảo vệ và chăm sóc các công viên và rừng để người dân địa phương có thể tận hưởng thiên nhiên bất cứ lúc nào.

Vì vậy, bạn đã biết ba thành phố rồi đấy. Đây là ba thành phố tốt nhất theo ý tôi. Bạn nghĩ sao? Bạn có một thành phố yêu thích của riêng bạn không?

Hãy để lại bình luận bên dưới nhé!

Common issues facing teenagers today

Being a teenager is not easy. According to a recent survey, the most common issues facing teenagers today include the following:

1. __________

Many parents think that social media is largely to blame as this is where teens often see images of famous or normal people drinking or smoking. This behaviour is often presented as ‘cool’ and ‘fashionable’. In the USA, more than one out of five secondary school students admitted having drunk alcohol regularly.

2. __________

While schools are supposed to provide a safe and healthy environment, they might actually be among the most dangerous places for many students. It is not uncommon for teenagers to experience bullying or physical violence at school. Often, victims suffer in silence as they feel reporting a bully won’t make a difference.

3. __________

Academic pressure and family expectations are the main reasons for this issue. Many young people nowadays spend a lot of time studying, doing homework, or revising for tests. In Korea, for example, students often spend between 12 to 16 hours per day at school and at an educational centre, and sleep only four hours per night.

4. __________

The figures for the USA and the UK are alarming. Many young people spend their free time on social media and don’t get enough exercise to maintain a healthy weight. Stress can also lead to weight gain as it encourages people to turn to food for comfort and stress relief.
