Read the passage. Circle the best answer A, B, C, or D to each of the questions.
My city has been changing since the municipal authority had a plan to renovate the canal
systems. The project cost a huge amount of money which was from the support of the world
bank and the city’s budget. Before the renovation, the canal was the dirtiest place full of rubbish
along its sides. Many ramshackle shacks were built to be shelters of the impoverished working
families migrating to this city to earn their living. Household wastes were directly dumped into
the canal, resulting in the very contaminated environment. It was said that the very unpleasant

2
smell releasing from the canal was unable to be eliminated, and the living condition there would
not be better. However, thanks to the advanced technology and methods as well as the city
authority’s effort, everything has been changing. There is no longer the disgusting smell or
shabby houses along both sides of the canal. Instead, the road running parallel to the canal is
now full of shade of greenery and the water now is so clean that it is a friendly habitat for a
variety of fish. The residents now can walk or do morning exercise on the sidewalks along the
banks to enjoy the fresh atmosphere. Former inhabitants are also relocated in new apartments
with much better living conditions than before. The canal creates not only a beautiful urban
landscape, but also brings a lot of economic benefits to local dwellers. Because of its
reformation, the city is changing fast too.

smell.

Read the passage. Circle the best answer A, B, C, or D to each of the questions.
Family life has been changing across some Southeast Asian countries over the past few
decades.
Many years ago, most of teenagers lived with their families, spending several hours at
school and the rest of time at home enjoying family atmosphere. Besides their studying,
adolescents could do some housework like doing the dishes, cooking, taking care of younger
children or supporting their family business.
These days, studying takes up such a lot of time that they cannot help much with
household chores and sometimes they even hardly have time to relax. This can lead to suffering
worse health and losing the bond with their family. In families with higher income, parents are
often so busy with their work that they send their children to private boarding schools, and the
time these students share with families is shortened more and more. In many cases, high-
schoolers meet their siblings and parents at weekends only.
It’s believed that there are some advantages to live and study in academic places, but
other benefits that schools are unlikely to provide should be taken into consideration. For
example, these young learners can learn a lot from their parents about social skills and doing
domestic chores. On one hand, some people think that teenage students prefer to have privacy
than to be controlled by adults, which may be true. On the other hand, nothing can compare or
replace the parents’ affection in terms of nurturing their children’s souls and their behaviours.
Changes often bring positive results but how people consider what is important to maintain and
preserve is worth thinking again.
1. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The negative effect of living away from family.
B. Some changes in family life in Southeast Asian countries.
C. Teenagers love to live independently rather than rely on their parents.

D. Teenagers’ life today is much better than that of decades ago.


2. What does the word ‘this’ in line 10 mean?
A. The fact that students do not have time to relax.
B. The fact that students cannot help with family work.
C. The fact that students have to spend most of their time studying.
D. The fact that students do too much housework.
3. Long time ago young learners could help their parents with ___________.

4
A. family chores or parents’ business
B. family chores and earn money themselves
C. nothing because of their busy curricula
D. nothing because they were busy playing
4. What are the benefits of family education?
A. Children can learn about good conduct.
B. Children can learn about social skills.
C. Children can learn how to do business.
D. Children can learn about good conduct and social skills.
5. What is the most important thing in terms of raising a child?
A. Parents’ love
B. Parents’ control
C. Children’s privacy
D. Children’s independence
