PART II. READING (2.5 pts)
A.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 following questions.
Prevention and responding to violence against children are an important aspect of UNICEF’s work to
strengthen Viet Nam’s child protection system. Through playing leading roles in legal reforms and child
protection system development, UNICEF is making key contributions to address all forms of violence against
children in daily settings - such as schools, homes and communities - and across the education, health and
welfare sectors.
A key area of UNICEF’s work to eliminate all forms of violence against children is building on the new
Child Law that came into effect in 2017. This ground-breaking law spells out the responsibility of the
government to use resources for children at risk and introduces for the first time an approach that takes aim at
preventing violence against children before it happens and responding to violence when it happens. UNICEF
is working with the government and provincial authorities to build a child protection system that responds to
the multiple causes and forms of violence.
Strengthening the capacity and responsibilities of parents and families to end violent discipline in the
home is a crucial UNICEF focus and involves development of parenting education and delivery of social care
services to support families to deal with factors that lead to violence against children. Parents and families are
also being supported to offer the protection from violence to help children to make a safe transition to
kindergarten and primary school.
