Read the following passage about Gender Equality as a Public Health Issue 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.
Gender inequality in healthcare remains a persistent global challenge. Women and men often receive
different levels of medical attention and treatment quality, creating disparities that affect overall public
health outcomes. These inequalities are not merely social issues but constitute significant public health
concerns that require comprehensive solutions. Medical institutions worldwide are gradually acknowledging
that gender-equitable healthcare is essential for achieving optimal population health.
Research consistently demonstrates that women frequently encounter obstacles when seeking
medical care. They often face dismissal of their symptoms, particularly for conditions like chronic pain,
which medical professionals may trivialize compared to identical symptoms in male patients. Additionally,
women from marginalized communities experience compounded difficulties, as intersecting factors like race
and socioeconomic status exacerbate these disparities. This systemic neglect can lead to delayed diagnoses
and inadequate treatment protocols, undermining women's overall well-being.
The roots of healthcare disparities lie in deep-seated societal biases and structural inadequacies.
Historical medical research predominantly focused on male subjects, resulting in treatment guidelines that
may not be optimally effective for women. Economic factors also contribute significantly, as women
globally tend to have lower incomes and less comprehensive insurance coverage, limiting their access to
specialized care. These barriers are particularly pronounced in developing regions, where cultural norms
may further impede women's autonomy in health decision-making.
Addressing gender disparities requires multifaceted interventions at various levels. Healthcare
providers must receive training to recognize and mitigate unconscious biases that influence clinical
decisions. Policy reforms are essential to ensure equitable insurance coverage and accessibility regardless of
gender. Furthermore, medical research must prioritize gender diversity in clinical trials to develop more
effective treatments for all patients. By elevating gender equality to a central public health priority, societies
can work toward eliminating these harmful disparities and improving health outcomes for everyone.
Question 23: According to the passage, all of the following contribute to healthcare gender disparities
EXCEPT.
A. Historical research focused predominantly on male subjects, leading to treatment guidelines that may not
be effective for women
B. Women's biological predisposition to certain diseases and conditions, making their treatment inherently
more complex
Trang 6
C. Economic factors, where women globally tend to have lower incomes and less comprehensive insurance
coverage
D. Cultural norms in developing regions that may impede women's autonomy in health decision-making

Read the following passage about the From Supportive Bystanders to Active Co-Creators of Equality
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 recent years, the concept of allyship has gained significant attention in social justice movements.
Many people express solidarity with marginalized groups, yet their support often remains superficial. [I]
Real commitment demands consistent action in both public and private spheres. Whether someone merely
posts on social media or attends occasional protests is neither here nor there if they don't challenge
fundamental power structures. True progress requires moving beyond passive allyship toward becoming
active co-creators of equality, working alongside marginalized communities rather than simply speaking for
them.
Conventional allyship frequently falls short of creating lasting change. [II] The performative nature
of such activism often masks underlying resistance to change. Such limited involvement often perpetuates
existing power dynamics, with privileged supporters maintaining their comfort while marginalized
individuals continue bearing the burden of educating and organizing. Additionally, many allies retreat when
facing criticism or when advocacy becomes inconvenient, demonstrating that temporary support differs
significantly from committed co-creation.
Becoming a co-creator of equality demands deeper engagement. Co-creators recognize that equality
benefits everyone, not just marginalized groups. Their work often requires personal sacrifice and
confronting uncomfortable truths daily. They consistently examine their privileges, amplify
underrepresented voices, and share resources without seeking recognition. Unlike passive allies who wait for
instructions, co-creators proactively identify opportunities to challenge discrimination in their spheres of
influence. [III] This approach transforms supportive bystanders into genuine partners who share
responsibility for dismantling barriers and rebuilding more equitable systems.
The transition from allyship to co-creation represents a crucial evolution in social justice work.
While allies stand alongside marginalized communities, co-creators work with them to reimagine and
rebuild social structures. This transformation enables sustainable change where traditional approaches
have repeatedly failed. This shift requires humility, consistent self-education, and a willingness to make
mistakes while learning. By embracing co-creation, we acknowledge that equality cannot be granted by
benevolent supporters but must be constructed collaboratively by diverse participants. [IV] The future of
social justice depends not on having more allies, but on cultivating more co-creators committed to collective
liberation.
Question 31: The phrase “neither here nor there” in paragraph 1 has the closest meaning to _________.
A. amount to nothing B. come across C. bring up D. look into

B. They retreat when facing criticism
Trang 8
C. They maintain their comfort while marginalized groups do the work
D. They wait for instructions rather than taking proactive action
Question 33: Where in the paragraph does the following sentence best fit?
Allies may attend occasional protests or donate to causes, but these actions alone cannot dismantle
systemic inequalities.

Question 34: The word “their” in paragraph 2 refers to _________.
A. marginalized individuals
B. allies in general
C. privileged supporters
D. social justice movements
Question 35: Which of the following best summarises paragraph 3?
A. Co-creators seek recognition for their contributions while supporting marginalized groups through
selective actions and occasional advocacy within comfortable boundaries of engagement.
B. Co-creators maintain emotional distance while providing financial resources to social justice causes,
focusing primarily on public demonstrations rather than systemic transformation.
C. Co-creators follow established protocols for allyship by attending organized events, speaking on behalf of
marginalized communities, and waiting for direction from movement leaders.
D. Co-creators engage deeply through personal sacrifice, proactively identify opportunities to challenge
discrimination, and share responsibility for building equitable systems.
Question 36: The word “spheres” in paragraph 3 is OPPOSITE in meaning to _________.
A. limitations B. domains C. environments D. territories
Question 37: Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 4?
A. Unlike allies who offer support from the sidelines, co-creators actively collaborate with marginalized
groups to transform and construct new social frameworks.
B. Both allies and co-creators provide similar levels of assistance to marginalized communities, though their
approaches to changing societal institutions may occasionally differ.
C. Allies primarily focus on rebuilding social structures while co-creators concentrate on standing in
solidarity with communities that experience systemic marginalization.
D. Co-creators provide emotional support to marginalized communities, whereas allies focus on the practical
work of redesigning and implementing structural changes.
Question 38: Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Social media activism and occasional protests are sufficient forms of allyship that effectively challenge
fundamental power structures and create meaningful societal transformation.
B. Co-creators recognize that equality benefits everyone, not just marginalized groups, and they proactively
identify opportunities to challenge discrimination in their spheres of influence.
Trang 9
C. The primary difference between allies and co-creators is that allies focus on public advocacy while cocreators concentrate exclusively on behind-the-scenes organizational work within established institutions.
D. Traditional approaches to social justice have succeeded because allies effectively granted equality to
marginalized groups, eliminating the need for direct participation from affected communities.
Question 39: Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. Marginalized communities prefer working with traditional allies who provide support from the sidelines
rather than co-creators who may disrupt established advocacy methods.
B. Social justice movements have been hindered by a focus on performative allyship rather than substantive
co-creation that challenges underlying power structures.
C. The concept of co-creation emerged primarily because marginalized communities found conventional
allyship too demanding and sought more sustainable forms of support.
D. Most people who identify as allies eventually transition to becoming co-creators once they gain sufficient
experience and knowledge about social justice movements.
Question 40: Which of the following best sumarises the passage?
A. The passage contrasts superficial allyship with committed co-creation, arguing that meaningful social
justice requires evolving beyond performative solidarity toward active collaboration with marginalized
communities to transform fundamental power structures.
B. The passage chronicles the historical development of social justice movements, detailing how digital
activism has transformed traditional protests into more effective campaigns that reach wider audiences
through social media and online education platforms.
C. The passage examines various approaches to equality, suggesting that both allyship and co-creation have
equal merit depending on individual circumstances, with neither approach being inherently superior for
advancing the goals of social justice movements.
D. The passage analyzes psychological barriers that prevent privileged individuals from engaging in
meaningful activism, focusing primarily on how self-interest and fear of criticism inhibit potential allies
from supporting marginalized communities effectively.
