answer to each of the questions.<br />
Consider activities that most take for granted, particularly those who live in industrialized nations: drinking a<br />
glass of water; driving a car or traveling by mass transportation; living in a decent house or apartment; using modern<br />
household appliances; using tools to build, fix and repair; even breathing fresh air. These activities improve our<br />
quality of life. Have you considered that to do all of the above requires the availability of natural resources, whether<br />
used as raw materials or in finished products?<br />

The United Nations predicts that the global population will increase from the present 6.65 billion to 7.95 billion<br />
by the year 2025. At the same time, the world is becoming more prosperous. The average person is consuming more<br />
food, water, energy and metals. Multiple millions in nations that were once poor are now moving into the middle<br />
class. They are driving cars, acquiring household appliances, using electronic gadgets and adopting high-protein<br />
diets, similar to Western industrialized nations. The subject of natural resources has been in the news for years. The<br />
media has long reported that the world's supply of oil, minerals, fresh water, and lumber are in danger of running<br />
out. Yet very few people take this seriously.<br />
Within the next 50 years, the world's population is projected to rise by 40%. This growth, coupled with<br />
increasing industrialization and urbanization, will result in greater demand for water. Water will become much<br />
scarcer. The United Nations figures suggest that there are around 300 potential conflicts over water all over the<br />
world. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), about one-sixth of the world's population lacks access<br />
to clean water, while 40% are without access to proper sanitation services.<br />

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct<br />
word for each of the blanks.<br />
There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have ever<br />
taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, different ideas<br />
about how to teach it, or how much priority it must be given over general language development and writing ability.<br />
The problem is, how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him<br />
back with the complexities of spelling.<br />
If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher's interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to "play safe".<br />
He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language. That's why<br />
teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.<br />
I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience. "This work is<br />
terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is terrible." It may have been a sharp criticism of the<br />
pupil's technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay,<br />
which contained some beautiful expressions of the child's deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw<br />
attention to the errors, but if his priorities had centered on the child's ideas, an expression of his disappointment with<br />
the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation to seek improvement.<br />
Câu 20: Teachers are different in their opinions about ______.<br />
A. the difficulties in teaching spelling<br />
B. the complexities of the basic writing skills<br />
C. the necessity of teaching spelling<br />
D. the role of spelling in general language development<br />
