Part 2. Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.
When it comes to preparations for studying abroad, the very first challenge for students is how to live
independently. Stepping out of their comfort zone to live and study in a faraway country often ingrains an
obscure fear of loneliness and helplessness. Therefore, if you have a plan to earn a degree in a foreign country,
you need to equip yourselves with essential skills to start a truly independent life as soon as possible. First and
foremost, you do not need to be an excellent cook but should know basic cooking skills to feed yourselves.
Suppose that you experienced a pandemic period, you would have to cook at home due to social distancing and
most restaurant closures. Second, clean-up and household skills are of equal importance. To lower
accommodation costs, many students often choose to share apartments with other mates. Definitely, no one
wants to stay with thse who are untidy and do not know how to do simple household tasks, so make sure that
you can do daily housework well enough. Third, money management is a challenging task for most overseas
students. Some students are often flat broke at the end of the month because they cannot handle their budget.
It’s advisable to be a smart shopper by making a suitable shopping list and keeping an accurate record of your
daily expenses to avoid pointless debt. In short, the pieces of advice will hopefully make your independent life
easier when you go to university in another country.

Prt 2. Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions (1,25 points)
You don’t have to be successful to become independent. Just remind yourself that you are fantastic and
you have special skills, a unique worldview and you deserve to be where you are as much as anyone else. As
long as you are confident and friendly, people will generally accept you for who you say you are provided that
you can back it up when necessary. Gradually, this method of ‘fake it till you make it’ will turn you into the one
you want to be.
You also need to have plans if you want to be independent. Get yourself professional, financial or any
best-lid plan that you can consistently stick to. Keeping to your own plans is an effective way to avoid following
others. After having plans, turn them into habits by making efforts to continue following them. Every time you
follow through with your plan, you are one step closer to getting into a habit, which helps you unconsciously
become drawn to positive actions.
As you get more comfortable in your independence, you can be confident in your own judgments. It’s
helpful to get someone else’s opinions every now and then, but frequently you need to make your own decisions
however they are big or seemingly insignificant ones. While it seems minor in many cases, giving yourself the
freedom to make your own choices can have a big impact.
One very important way to be more emotionally independent is to learn to give yourself emotional
support. Dependent people tend to feel controlled by events, people and situations outside of themselves. In times
of stress or pain, those people usually wait for others to come and affect their emotions. True independence,
however, comes when you are able to give yourself emotional support, when you realize that your feelings exist
inside of you and that they can be soothed by you.
To do it, you need to allow yourself to experience your own feelings. You need to give yourself space to
find out what makes you feel comforted and not to consider your sadness and joy as no big deal.
Questin 15: According to paragraph 1, which of the following is not TRUE?
A. Anyone can be independent.
B. ‘Fake it till you make it’ means you persuade others that you are confident.
C. Being confident and friendly helps people accept you as you are..
D. Sometimes you need to supply evidence to support that you are who you are.
Questin 16: The word best-lid in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to .
A. ambitious B. well-planned C. impractical D. long-term
Questin 17: The word they in paragraph 3 refers to .
A. cases B. choices C. opinions D. decisions
Questin 18: Why is learning to give yourself emotional support important?
A. Because others tend to control your feelings.
B. Because you will no longer have to wait for others to come and comfort you.
C. Because you can become emotionally independent.
D. Because you don’t realize that you have feelings inside.
Questin 19: Which of the following is the most suitable title for the passage?
A. The importance of your own emotions
B. Getting into good habits
C. How to make choices out of your judgements
D. Ways to be more independent

My Sn Snctury
Hidden away in the tropical forest near the port city of Da Nang and the very popular World Heritage
town of Hoi An is the Champa civilization’s sacred valley of My Son, or “Beautiful Mountain”. I joined the full
day package tour from Hoi An, which was quite very convenient as it included all transportation, ticket fee, lunch
and guide. (20) . After walking for a while, I found the complex of tourist facilities, and one of them is
the performance hall. Our guide insisted us keeping going into the forest. Within few minutes, I started to see
the complex of ancient Hindu temples (21) .
At first, the dilapidated state of the complex was quite shocking, and almost nothing was left to see. I
decided to discover the site by myself, and I started to be impressed by the amazing quality of brick carving
details. The image of Hinduism guardians and angels are truly beautiful and reminded me about Angkor in
Cambodia. For me, My Son is the great evidence of how Southern Indian art expanded to Southeast Asia since
ancient Cham people came from Java, (22) , and later expand to modern day Viet Nam and later
Cambodia and Thailand. The construction method of My Son is also very unique: Cham people built a whole
block of bricks, burned them to make the whole brick block very solid and strong, then chiseled into the temple.
I walked around the complex many times to enjoy (23) until the guide informed that there are more
complex to see.
After that, the guide took me back to the bus and back to Hoi An, it was exactly 3 hours inside My Son.
(24) , I really enjoyed my visit to My Son, the place has exceeded my expectation and even small
complex can clearly show its value as a bridge of cultural exchange between India - Java and mainland Southeast
Asia.
