The Western model of<br /> development, conceived linear process involving largely economic factors, is often incompatible with the<br /> complex social, cultural and political dimensions of societies pursuing different goals, reflecting their own<br /> values. The ideology of development has all too often tended to damage the social fabric and foundationsoften rooted in traditions of communal solidarity- of the communities that have received “development aid”<br /> Just as no development strategy can be said to be culturally neutral, a culturally sensitive approach to<br /> development is the key to addressing the interlinked social, economic and environmental problems<br /> confronting the planet as a whole. Cultural diversity - which emphasizes the dynamic interactions between<br /> cultures and sensitivity to cultural contexts - thus becomes a key lever for ensuring sustainable, holistic<br /> development strategies. While the international community, in its attempts to operationalize the concept of<br /> sustainable development over the last two decades, has begun to acknowledge the role of culture in the<br /> development process, the cultural factor has yet to be fully integrated into the development equation.<br /> The 1987 Bruntland Report of the UN Commission on Environment and Development (UNCED),<br /> entitled our Common Future, was seminal in its assertion that genuine development must be sustainable denoting a form of growth “that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future<br /> generations to meet their own needs". At the 1992 Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, sustainability was<br /> conceived in terms of the three pillars of economic viability, social responsiveness and respect for the<br /> environment. These pillars have since served as the basis for important standard-setting instruments,<br /> including the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and the Nations Framework Convention on<br /> Climate Change (UNFCCC). The 2002 World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg went<br /> further by recognizing cultural diversity as a significant cross-cutting factor in sustainable development.<br /> Cultural diversity must be seen as a cross-cutting (rather than as a separate, fourth pillar of sustainability),<br /> with an important role to play in all development projects, from poverty eradication and the safeguarding of<br /> biodiversity to resource management and climate change.<br /> Câu 3: The word "its" in paragraph 2 refers to ______.<br /> A. development strategies<br /> B. key lever's<br /> C. cultural contexts'<br /> D. international community's<br /> Câu 4: It is stated in the first paragraph that ______.<br /> A. the Western model of development has nothing to do the complex societie<br /> B. the development of a society is dependent on its social, cultural and political dimensions<br /> C. there is no single model on which development strategies should be based<br /> D. complex societies are equally concerned with traditions and communal solidarity<br /> Câu 5: It is stated in paragraph 3 that ______.<br /> A. sustainable development does not only meet the needs of the present but also of future generations<br /> B. sustainable development can serve as an introduction to important standard-setting instruments<br /> C. sustainable development plays an important role in all development projects<br /> D. sustainable development refers to the ability of future generations to meet their own needs<br /> Trang 1/5 - Mã đề thi 205<br /> <br /> Câu 6: The word "rooted" in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to____.<br /> A. originated<br /> B. came<br /> C. established<br /> D. derived<br /> Câu 7: Which of the following is true about cultural factor according to paragraph 2?<br /> A.

Cultural diversity sometimes gives strong foundation for sustainable development<br /> B. Cultural diversity serves as a broad base dimension for sustainable development<br /> C. Cultural diversity should serve as the key dimension of sustainable development<br /> D. Cultural diversity has been a hindrance to sustainable development<br /> Câu 9: The word "acknowledge" in paragraph 2 mostly means______.<br /> A. to increase the value of<br /> B. to be aware of the significance of<br /> C. to have clear understanding of<br /> D. to recognize the participation of<br /> Câu 10: Which of the following is true according to the passage?<br /> A.

Two that are frequently<br /> linked to one another are earthquakes and tsunamis. Both of them can cause a great amount of devastation<br /> when they hit. However, tsunamis are the direct result of earthquakes and cannot happen without them.<br /> The Earth has three main parts. They are the crust, the mantle, and the core. The crust is the outer<br /> layer of the Earth. It is not a single piece of land. Instead, it is comprised of a number of plates. There are a<br /> few enormous plates and many smaller ones. These plates essentially rest upon the mantle, which is fluid.<br /> As a result, the plates are in constant - yet slow - motion. The plates may move away from or towards other<br /> plates. In some cases, they collide violently with the plates adjoining them. The movement of the plates<br /> causes tension in the rock. Over a long time, this tension may build up. When it is released, an earthquake<br /> happens.<br /> Tens of thousands of earthquakes happen every year. The vast majority are so small that only<br /> scientific instruments can perceive them. Others are powerful enough that people can feel them, yet they<br /> cause little harm or damage. More powerful earthquakes, however, can cause buildings, bridges, and other<br /> structures to collapse. They may additionally injure and skill thousands of people and might even cause the<br /> land to change it appearance.<br /> Since most of the Earth's surface is water, numerous earthquakes happen beneath the planet's oceans.<br /> Underwater earthquakes cause the seafloor to move. This results in the displacement of water in the ocean.<br /> When this occurs, a tsunami may form. This is a wave that forms on the surface and moves in all directions<br /> from the place where the earthquake happened. A tsunami moves extremely quickly and can travel<br /> thousands of kilometres. As it approaches land, the water near the coast gets sucked out to sea. This causes<br /> the tsunamis to increase in height. Minutes later, the tsunami arrives. A large tsunami - one more than ten<br /> meters in height - can travel far inland. As it does that, it can flood the land, destroy human settlements, and<br /> kill large numbers of people.<br /> Câu 13: What is the passage mainly about?<br /> A.

It is thicker on land than it is under the water.<br /> B. The mantle beneath it keeps it from moving too much.<br /> C. There many separate pieces that make it up.<br /> D.

Whether they were students<br /> on their (46)______ years looking for overseas adventure, stressed-out workers hoping to get away for a<br /> weekend, or retirees (47)______ to relax in an exotic location- clearly none of them thought they could find<br /> the same experience at home. The question is whether foreign travel brings more advantages or<br /> disadvantages.<br /> An obvious positive point is that going abroad sometimes helps people to expand their knowledge of the<br /> world. If they are (48)_____ - minded, they can learn about new cultures and hopefully gain a more accurate<br /> understanding about their way of life. In addition, there is the economic benefit of tourism to countries<br /> which have few other resources. It can provide an income to many people within the industry.<br /> Having said that, some people simply go to a foreign resort (49)______ by high walls and therefore learn<br /> little about their holiday (50)______. Another issue is that hordes of tourists often spoil the “unspoilt” places<br /> they visit. The most recent example of this is Antarctica, where last year cruise ships took thousands of<br /> visitors to view the disappearing icebergs and wildlife.
