The Western<br /> model of development, conceived linear process involving largely economic factors, is often incompatible<br /> with the complex social, cultural and political dimensions of societies pursuing different goals, reflecting<br /> their own values. The ideology of development has all too often tended to damage the social fabric and<br /> foundations- often rooted in traditions of communal solidarity- of the communities that have received<br /> “development aid”<br /> Just as no development strategy can be said to be culturally neutral, a culturally sensitive approach<br /> to 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<br /> of biodiversity to resource management and climate change.<br /> Câu 3: It is stated in the first paragraph that ______.<br /> A. there is no single model on which development strategies should be based<br /> B. the Western model of development has nothing to do the complex societie<br /> C. complex societies are equally concerned with traditions and communal solidarity<br /> D. the development of a society is dependent on its social, cultural and political dimensions<br /> Câu 4: Which of the following is true according to the passage?<br /> A. It was not until 2002 that cultural diversity was fully recognized<br /> B. Cultural diversity has been recognized for its significant role in sustainability<br /> C. Cultural diversity helps ensure the success of development strategies and projects<br /> D. A development should be always designed basing on cultural diversity<br /> Câu 5: The word "rooted" in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to____.<br /> A. established<br /> B. originated<br /> C. derived<br /> D. came<br /> Trang 1/5 - Mã đề thi 211<br /> <br /> Câu 6: The word "acknowledge" in paragraph 2 mostly means______.<br /> A. to recognize the participation of<br /> B. to increase the value of<br /> C. to be aware of the significance of<br /> D. to have clear understanding of<br /> Câu 7: It is stated in paragraph 3 that ______.<br /> A. sustainable development plays an important role in all development projects<br /> B. sustainable development can serve as an introduction to important standard-setting instruments<br /> C. sustainable development refers to the ability of future generations to meet their own needs<br /> D. sustainable development does not only meet the needs of the present but also of future generations<br /> Câu 8: Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?<br /> A. Cultural diversity sometimes gives strong foundation for sustainable development<br /> B. Cultural diversity should serve as the key dimension of sustainable development<br /> C. Cultural diversity serves as a broad base dimension for sustainable development<br /> D. Cultural diversity has been a hindrance to sustainable development<br /> Câu 9: Which of the following is true about cultural factor according to paragraph 2?<br /> A. It is the key to ensuring holistic development strategies.<br /> B. It has not been considered with respect to development at all<br /> C. It has nothing to do with sustainably economic development.<br /> D. It has not been fully taken into account in development program..<br /> Câu 10: The word "its" in paragraph 2 refers to ______.<br /> A. key lever's<br /> B. development strategies<br /> C. international community's<br /> D. cultural contexts'<br /> Mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the word that differs from the other<br /> three in the position of primary stress in each of the following questions.<br /> Câu 11: A. environment B. television<br /> C. technology<br /> D. community<br /> Câu 12: A. Vietnamese<br /> B. committee<br /> C. picturesque<br /> D. engineer<br /> Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the<br /> correct answer to each of the questions.<br /> Thunderstorms, with their jagged bursts of lightning and roaring thunder, are actually one of<br /> nature’s primary mechanisms for transferring heat from the surface of the earth into the atmosphere. A<br /> thunderstorm starts when low-lying pockets of warm air from the surface of the earth begin to rise. The<br /> pockets of warm air float upward through the air above that is both cooler and heavier. The rising pockets<br /> cool as their pressure decreases, and their latent heat is released above the condensation line through the<br /> formation of cumulus clouds.<br /> What will happen with these clouds depends on the temperature of the atmosphere. In winter, the<br /> air temperature differential between higher and lower altitudes is not extremely great, and the temperature<br /> of the rising air mass drops more slowly. During these colder months, the atmosphere, therefore, tends to<br /> remain rather stable. In summer, however, when there is a high accumulation of heat near the earth’s<br /> surface, in direct contrast to the considerably colder air higher up, the temperature differential between<br /> higher and lower altitudes is much more pronounced. As warm air rises in this type of environment, the<br /> temperature drops much more rapidly than it does in winter; when the temperature drops more than 4<br /> degrees Fahrenheit per thousand feet of altitude, cumulus clouds aggregate into a single massive<br /> cumulonimbus cloud, or thunderhead.<br /> In isolation, a single thunderstorm is an impressive but fairly benign way for Mother Earth to<br /> defuse trapped heat from her surface; thunderstorms, however, can appear in concert, and the resulting<br /> show, while extremely impressive, can also prove extraordinarily destructive. When there is a large-scale<br /> collision between cold air and warm air masses during the summer months, a squall line, or series of<br /> thunderheads, may develop. It is common for a squall line to begin when an advancing cold front meets up<br /> with and forces itself under a layer of warm and moist air, creating a line of thunderstorms that races<br /> forward at speeds of approximately forty miles per hour. A squall line, which can be hundreds of miles<br /> long and can contain fifty distinct thunderheads, is a magnificent force of nature with incredible potential<br /> for destruction. Within the squall line, often near its southern end, can be found supercells, long-lived<br /> rotating storms of exceptional strength that serve as the source of tornadoes.<br /> Trang 2/5 - Mã đề thi 211<br /> <br /> Câu 13: The word “benign” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ________.<br /> A. ferocious<br /> B. spectacular<br /> C. beneficial<br /> D. harmless<br /> Câu 14: This reading would most probably be assigned in which of the following courses?<br /> A.
