Question 15:
Dear Emma,
a. Although our town is small, we could create a garden where children can play while parents chat. If we
plant flowers and trees together, we will feel proud of our shared space.
b. The old building, which stands empty near the school, could become a community center where we
learn and celebrate together. People need places that feel like they belong to everyone.
c. I'm writing because our neighborhood needs more places where people can meet and talk. When we
have benches and small parks, our community becomes stronger.
d. I hope that we can discuss these ideas when we meet next Sunday, because I believe small changes can
make our town feel like a real home.

their neighbors.
b. Old buildings tell stories about our past, and they remind us of who we are as a community. Historic
places, which have special meaning, can make people proud of where they live.
c. Schools and libraries are important because they bring different people together, while coffee shops and
markets create spaces where friendships grow. If a town has many meeting places, people will talk
more.

Question 17:
a. Music has always traveled between cultures, and when artists learn from each other with respect, they
create songs that bring people together instead of pulling them apart.
Trang 4
b. The internet has made it easier for people to hear music from around the world, but this means we need
to be more careful about how we share and use cultural sounds. Young people who listen to global
music can learn about different traditions if the artists explain where the sounds come from.
c. Many successful artists work with musicians from other countries, or they study the history of the music
they love before they use it in their songs. When artists collaborate across cultures, they build bridges
that help people understand each other better.
d. However, some musicians take elements from other cultures without understanding their importance,
and they might make money while the original creators receive nothing. If artists change sacred music
or use cultural symbols just to look interesting, they may hurt communities who created these traditions.
e. Musicians often use sounds and melodies from different cultures, which can create beautiful new music
when done with respect. When artists learn about the culture and give credit to the original creators,
they show appreciation for traditions that aren't their own.

Read the following passage about Celebrating Diversity as a Community Asset and mark the letter A,
B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 23
to 30.
When students from different backgrounds gather in a school cafeteria, they bring not only varied
lunch boxes but entire worlds of traditions, perspectives, and stories. This cultural mosaic enriches
communities far beyond colorful festivals and exotic cuisines. Studies reveal that neighborhoods embracing
diversity often experience lower crime rates and higher levels of trust among residents. This phenomenon
stems from increased cross-cultural interactions that dismantle stereotypes and forge authentic connections.
Trang 6
The process of cultural integration, however, requires deliberate effort rather than passive coexistence, as
meaningful exchange happens when communities actively create spaces for sharing cultural knowledge.
Local economies flourish when cultural diversity permeates a community's fabric. Immigrant
entrepreneurs frequently revitalize declining commercial districts, introducing distinctive products and
services that attract visitors from surrounding areas. In cities like Portland and Nashville, international
markets have transformed once-abandoned neighborhoods into bustling centers of commerce. Additionally,
employers increasingly value workers with multicultural competence, recognizing that such individuals
navigate complex situations with greater diplomacy and creativity. This skill becomes particularly valuable
in today's global marketplace, where understanding cultural nuances often determines business success or
failure.
Schools represent crucial arenas for cultivating appreciation of diversity. Educational institutions
implementing multicultural curricula report improved academic outcomes across all student demographics.
When children recognize their heritage in classroom materials, their engagement intensifies dramatically.
Conversely, students exposed to diverse perspectives develop enhanced critical thinking abilities and
demonstrate greater empathy toward others. Some innovative schools have established "culture exchange
days" where families showcase traditions through food, music, and storytelling, creating memorable learning
experiences that textbooks alone cannot provide.
The digital revolution has simultaneously complicated and enhanced cultural exchange. Social
media platforms enable instantaneous sharing of cultural practices across continents, allowing young
people to explore diverse traditions without leaving home. However, these virtual interactions sometimes
lack the depth that in-person cultural immersion provides. Communities that blend digital connectivity with
physical gathering spaces—like multicultural youth centers or community gardens—harness technology's
reach while preserving the irreplaceable value of face-to-face cultural dialogue.
Question 23: According to the passage, all of the following are mentioned as benefits of cultural diversity
EXCEPT?
A. Lower crime rates
B. Enhanced critical thinking abilities
C. Higher levels of trust among residents

Read the following passage about the Reconciliation as a Path to Community Wholeness and mark the
letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions
from 31 to 40.
In divided communities, the suggestion that former enemies might work together often raises
eyebrows among skeptics who believe old wounds run too deep to heal. History, however, reveals that
reconciliation, while challenging, represents a powerful path toward collective healing and renewal. This
process involves acknowledging past harms, establishing dialogue between opposing groups, and creating
shared visions for the future. When communities embrace reconciliation, they discover resources for healing
that transcend individual efforts. The journey requires patience, as meaningful trust develops gradually
rather than overnight.
Trang 8
[I] In post-apartheid South Africa, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission created spaces where
victims could share their experiences while perpetrators acknowledged wrongdoing. [II] This process, while
imperfect, laid groundwork for a more unified nation. [III] Similarly, community dialogue programs in
Northern Ireland brought together Protestant and Catholic youth who discovered common aspirations
despite generations of conflict. [IV] These examples show how facilitated conversations can bridge
seemingly insurmountable divides when participants commit to honest exchange and mutual understanding.
The benefits of reconciliation extend beyond emotional healing into practical community
improvements. Research indicates that reconciled communities experience reduced violence, increased
economic cooperation, and more effective governance structures. When diverse groups work together rather
than against each other, they develop creative solutions to shared challenges like environmental degradation
or educational inequality. Additionally, children raised in reconciled communities show greater empathy and
conflict resolution skills, creating positive intergenerational effects. These outcomes demonstrate why
reconciliation represents not merely an idealistic goal but a practical necessity for community wholeness.
Ultimately, reconciliation begins with individual choices to engage across dividing lines.
Communities can support this process by establishing neutral spaces for dialogue, celebrating shared
cultural elements, and addressing systemic inequalities that fuel division. Educational institutions play
crucial roles by teaching accurate history while emphasizing our common humanity. Though the path of
reconciliation contains difficulties, its rewards—renewed trust, collaborative problem-solving, and
sustainable peace—offer compelling reasons to pursue healing rather than harboring division.

A. Reconciliation creates emotional healing through structured dialogue processes that transform community
relationships and build mutual respect across historical divides.
B. Reconciliation yields practical benefits, including reduced violence, economic growth, improved

cultural traditions, and resolving structural inequalities that maintain separation.
C. Local groups should prioritize economic development before addressing social differences, while
government institutions establish regulations enforcing collaborative projects.
D. Neighborhoods can heal historical wounds when religious institutions organize community ceremonies,
officials enforce equality laws, and schools teach accurate history.
Question 38: Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission in South Africa required perpetrators to financially
compensate victims as the primary condition for national healing and unity.
B. Research demonstrates that successful reconciliation typically occurs rapidly when governments mandate
formal apologies and establish strict equality laws.
C. Protestant and Catholic youth in Northern Ireland initially rejected dialogue programs but were

A. Historical conflicts create psychological barriers that require professional intervention before grassroots
dialogue, while economic cooperation must precede addressing painful historical wounds through carefully
structured truth-telling sessions.
B. Educational institutions should lead community reconciliation by teaching accurate history alongside
shared humanity, while government agencies must establish equality legislation before meaningful dialogue
between former adversaries becomes possible.
C. Reconciliation between divided communities, while challenging, offers profound benefits, including
emotional healing and practical improvements, as demonstrated through historical examples, and requires
both individual commitment and community support.
D. The intergenerational effects of conflict can be mitigated primarily through cultural celebrations and
