21st century teachers need to serve as a guide or mentor for their students, not as the all-knowing sage
providing them with everything they need. Nowadays, with so much access (23)
resources of all kinds, children invariably know more than teachers on different topics, step ahead of the
technology. Teachers need to be empowered as facilitators for learning, so that they can empower their

Trang 2/7
students in (24) . This shift is great news for teachers. Instead of struggling to give kids all
the information in areas (25) they know little about, teachers can support students as they make their own
steps into different fields. It’s about preparing them to go beyond their seniors, ensuring they have the
skills to do it, and assisting them along the way. (26) , teachers need to be forward-
thinking, curious and flexible. They must be learners: learning new teaching methods, and learning
alongside their students. Simply asking questions like “What will my students need dozens of years from
now?” or “How can I help give them those skills?” can change teachers’ (27) , make them
a leader, and bring about changes in the classroom, school and community.

When we talk about living a healthy life, there is a famous old saying, you are what you eat. In fact, it is
not just what people eat, but their whole lifestyle, which is important. The best way to stay healthy is to
live a balanced lifestyle. Are you living a balanced lifestyle both physically and mentally?
Physical Balance
The human body needs physical exercise at least once a day. In today’s world, many working people
spend most of their day sitting at a desk. To add more exercise to your daily life, try to stop what you are
doing about once an hour and stretch or take a short walk. After work, take a brisk walk or go to the gym.
Your body will thank you for it.
For good health, nutritionists say we should eat at least four servings of raw food a day. By eating many
colorful fruits and vegetables, you can be sure you are getting the correct nutrients. Have a red apple
with your breakfast, a green salad at lunch, some carrots for your afternoon snack, and grapes for dessert
instead of cake or cookies. Of course, for a healthy balance, your body also needs other foods.
Mental Balance
Mentally balanced people are usually emotionally balanced. They are generally happy with the things
they have. They do not need to have more and more things. A mentally balanced person also feels good
about who they are. They don’t worry about the past, and generally have good relationships with the
people around them. That doesn’t mean that mentally healthy people never have negative feelings, but
they don’t let these types of feelings control them or their behavior. It’s normal for people to feel their
emotions-life always has its challenges and tragedies. But mentally healthy people face those challenges
and resolve them quickly instead of allowing them to take control of their lives. By taking a little time
each day to eat well, exercise, and clear your mind, anyone can live a more balanced and healthier
lifestyle.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 35 to 42.
A folk culture is small, isolated, cohesive, conservative, nearly self-sufficient group that is
homogeneous in custom and race, with a strong family or clan structure and highly developed rituals.
Order is maintained through sanctions based in the religion or family, and interpersonal relationships
are strong. Tradition is paramount, and change comes infrequently and slowly. There is relatively little
division of labor into specialized duties. Rather, each person is expected to perform a great variety of
tasks, though duties may differ between the sexes. Most goods are handmade, and a subsistence economy
prevails. Individualism is weakly developed in folk cultures, as are social classes. Unaltered folk cultures
no longer exist in industrialized countries such as the United States and Canada. Perhaps the nearest
modem equivalent in Anglo-America is the Amish, a German American farming sect that largely
renounces the products and labor saving devices of the industrial age. In Amish areas, horse-drawn
buggies till serve as a local transportation device, and the faithful are not permitted to own automobiles.
The Amish’s central religious concept of Demut, “humility”, clearly reflects the weakness of
individualism and social class so typical of folk cultures, and there is a corresponding strength of Amish
group identity. Rarely do the Amish marry outside their sect. The religion, a variety of the Mennonite
faith, provides the principal mechanism for maintaining order.
By contrast, a popular culture is a large heterogeneous group, often highly individualistic and constantly
changing. Relationships tend to be impersonal, and a pronounced division of labor exists, leading to the
establishment of many specialized professions. Secular institutions, of control such as the police and army

Trang 4/7
take the place of religion and family in maintaining order, and a money-based economy prevails. Because
of these contrasts, “popular” may be viewed as clearly different from “folk”.
The popular is replacing the folk in industrialized countries and in many developing nations, Folk-made
objects give way to their popular equivalent, usually because the popular item is more quickly or cheaply
produced, is easier or time saving to use, or lends more prestige to the owner.
