THE TEXT: There are three main periods in Beethoven’s music career: early, middle and late. The beginning of his early period was in 1792 when he moved to Vienna, Austria. Beethoven quickly made a name for himself as a talented pianist. His compositions during this period
consisted mainly of works for his main instrument, the piano, and were classical in nature. However, Beethoven’s hearing was beginning to deteriorate during this period, and he tried to hide this fact from those around him.
In 1800, Beethoven turned from the classical forms of the previous century to a more expressive or romantic music. His musical imagination began to grow beyond that of the piano. The middle period was believed to be Beethoven’s greatest and most productive stage. In less than a decade, he produced countless masterpieces in every genre. In 1809, however, his musical creativity began to decline, possibly due to his health problems and mental state. Beethoven stopped conducting and performing in public, but continued to compose – many of his most admired works were created during this period. By 1815, he was almost completely deaf and his manners became increasingly rude. In 1827, he died after a long illness. Nearly 20,000 people lined the streets of Vienna to pay their last respect to the composer who had changed the music scene of Western Europe.

THE TEXT: Urbanisation programmes are being carried out in many parts of the world, especially in densely populated regions with limited land and resources. It is the natural outcome of economic development and industrialisation. It has brought a lot of benefits to our society.
However, it also poses various problems for local authorities and town planners in the process of maintaining sustainable urbanisation, especially in developing countries. When too many people cram into a small area, urban infrastructure can’t be effective. There will be a lack of livable housing, energy and water supply. This will create overcrowded urban districts with no proper facilities.
Currently, fast urbanisation is taking place predominantly in developing countries where sustainable urbanisation has little relevance to people’s lives. Their houses are just shabby slums with poor sanitation. Their children only manage to get basic education. Hence, the struggle for survival is their first priority rather than anything else. Only when the quality of their existence is improved, can they seek for other high values in their life. Thus, sustainable urbanisation in different regions should start from different levels. For more developed regions, the focus could be on achieving a more sustainable urban life. But for less developed regions, urban development should really start with the provision of the basic human needs such as suficient energy, clean water, housing with proper sanitation, and access to effective social infrastructure.

Ss: work individually to use the information from act 1 and act 2 to write a descriptin of 130-150 words of the trends in the graph
at the time. The next 30-year period saw some changes in the trend with more people (around 45%) living in urban areas and fewer people (less than 60%) living in rural areas. Towards the end of the period, the trend was totally reversed. In 2010, around 75% of the population lived in urban areas, whereas just merely 25% still lived in rural areas. In summary, as time went by, more and more people chose the city over rural areas to settle down.
4. Consolidation: writing a description of a line graph about trends in urbanisation. 5. Homework: Complete writing

verbs and expressions, the past simple vs. the past continuous and use of articles I. READING Question 1-5: Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow. The summer travel season will soon be upon us, with notions of escape, unplugging and faraway lands. But while the idea of disconnecting from technology when abroad seems relaxing, the stress of visiting a foreign country without a smartphone connection can quickly counteract the benefits of a digital detox. After landing in an unfamiliar place, you may realize that an inability to look up mobile maps or places to eat on a phone can be crippling. Relying on a printed tourist guide may feel primitive and immediately inform robbers that you are holding lots of cash. So what to do? There are two ways to take your cellphone abroad and get data — the frugal way and the pay-full-price way. The inexpensive method involves some planning ahead, while the full-price way is easy but requires paying even more money to your carrier (A). First, a very well-liked option is usually the full-price, for many years, American wireless customers have been able to pay extra to their carrier for international roaming, or the ability to seamlessly use a foreign network (B). Among other options, AT&T sells an international package with a modest amount of data (800 megabytes, enough to last about a week) for $120, and Verizon Wireless charges $5 a day for roaming in many countries. And in three recent years, T-Mobile USA and Sprint began offering free international roaming, but with a warning: The data speeds are very slow. For frugal travelers, there are some smart alternatives if they are willing to do a bit of homework (C). To get a good deal, the initial step is to bring an "unlocked" smartphone, which is a phone not restricted to use with one carrier, into a foreign carrier’s store, buy a data package and insert its SIM card into the phone. (In wireless industry jargon, these are called prepaid international SIM cards.) Even better, some overseas carriers let you order a SIM card ahead of time (D). 1. According to the first paragraph, though disconnecting from technology during holiday sounds restful, tourists can still face __________. A. the danger of being robbed B. the stress when having no digital assistance C. the threat of being lost D. the risk of having nothing to eat 2. The word "frugal" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to __________. A. easy B. costly C. dangerous D. cheap 3. According to paragraph 3, how many ways to use the international roaming are there in the full-price option? A. one B. two C. three D. five 4. Customers don't have to pay money for the roaming service of _________. A. AT&T B. Verizon Wireless C. T-Mobile D. SIM 5. Where can the following clause be placed in the passage? "... so you can get it before your trip or have it delivered to your hotel ..." A. (A) B. (B) C. (C) D. (D) II. VOCABULARY

READING TEXT If you want to make your school green, think beyond your classrooms. Here are some suggestions that are all easy and simple to follow, and can make a big difference in reducing your carbon footprint and creating a sustainable community. One of the places where both teachers and students often spend some of their time is the library. An eco-friendly reading space is likely to create a favourable impression on library users, and bring some significant educational benefits. For example, you can install energysaving products like fans instead of air-conditioners which consume a lot of energy. You can also use biodegradable dust cloths or old T-shirts to clean the environment. In addition, to raise public awareness, allocate a clearly visible space on the noticeboard for everyday green tips like ‘Let others reuse your book’.
Sporty students may prefer to spend more time in the swimming pool than in the library. Therefore, keeping this place safe and green will also help to raise their environmental awareness. Remember that chlorinated pool water may cause red eyes and itchy skin to some people if they spend much time in the pool. An ideal alternative would be a salt-water pool, which can be naturally clean and economical. In case warm water is required, think of solar heating to save the environment as one pool with gas or electric heater may emit tons of carbon dioxide each year. Finally, focus on the school gym, which is perhaps the most interactive and exciting place for all school staff. Think of installing low-flow taps and showers to save gallons of water per minute and energy-saving lights to cut the cost of electricity. Moreover, make sure that the airflow pathways are clear and free of mould, mildew and other allergens.

I. READING Question 1-5: Read an article about urbanisation and choose the best answer. In 1900, just 13 per cent of the world’s people lived in cities. In 2008, the number passed 50 per cent for the first time in history. By 2050, the number will be about 70 per cent. The urban population in Asia and Africa will double, and there will be nearly 30 ‘megacities’ – cities with more than 10 million people. So what will life be like for people in the cities of the future? Professor of human geography Ben Rhodes describes his vision of the urban world in 2050. Life in cities will be very different from how it is today. Energy, especially oil, will be very expensive, so many people will probably work at home, or have their work places close to where they live. There will be less traffic on the roads, and it will be easier for people to be close to their families. For these reasons, cities won’t have just one centre where everyone goes to work and shop. Instead, we’ll probably see cities with many different centres. It will be difficult to provide enough water, gas and electricity for really big cities, so these will probably stop growing. Many people from the countryside will move to smaller cities of 500,000 people or less. Transport over long distances will be a lot more expensive than it is now, so people will have to use food and energy from the countryside around their cities. They will use local materials for building, and perhaps traditional styles of architecture too. The thing I really worry about is that energy may become too expensive for many people. In the end we might have two groups of people: a rich group which can afford energy and lives in clean, green areas, and a bigger, poorer group which can’t afford energy and has to live in the more polluted parts of the city. This might lead to serious political problems. As we all know, cities near the sea will probably experience some extra problems. As temperatures around the world go up, sea levels will rise and many places will have problems with flooding. Some cities will be OK, some may even find that the change in the climate is good for them, but others will need help. We really need to start planning for this now. 1. How many people will live in cities by 2050? A. Thirty per cent of the population. B. Fifty per cent of the population. C. Seventeen per cent of the population. D. Seventy per cent of the population. 2. The word "their" in paragraph 2 refers to______. A. cities B. work places C. families D. people 3. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as one of the shortages facing cities in the 2050s? A. water B. food C. electricity D. gas 4. Where will the poor city dwellers be likely to live in?
A. clean areas B. green areas C. polluted areas 5. The word "rise" in paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ____. A. go down B. fall C. decline
D. developed areas D. increase

READING TEXT While people’s cultural identity is undoubtedly always protected and regarded as their most important characteristic, its (1) expressions can sometimes be inappropriate, particularly in today’s modern society. In the age of increased globalisation, some festivals include (2) rituals that are considered too old-fashioned and obviously need to be modified. An example is the (3) controversial pig-slaughter festival in a village in northern Viet Nam. There has been outrage in the country and other parts of the world as shocking photos and videos have shown the pigs getting tied down and sliced in half. According to ancient beliefs, this festival is celebrated to pray for good luck and fortune in the new year. The pig-slaughter ceremony has taken place in the village for many centuries. The older (4) generations insist on continuing this so-called ‘cultural’ practice and have argued that they are keeping the traditions of their (5) ancestors alive. They also say it does not break the law and should be decided by the villagers. Concerns about this backward festival have been raised not only by international animal rights groups, but also by the (6) authorities. They have called on villagers to make certain adjustments to the ceremony. A government spokesperson has also expressed disapproval of cultural practices that are based on (7) superstition and barbarian practices. Ultimately, traditions will have to undergo changes as societies become more modern and develop new values and symbols. While it is important to preserve traditions and customs, communities should make sure that the rituals are in harmony with current social beliefs, strengthen their sense of belonging, and make people (8) proud of their cultural identity.

TEXT READING Lee Kuan Yew - the founding father of modern Singapore Lee Kuan Yew was appointed as the first prime minister of Singapore in 1959 when the nation became a self-governing state. At that time, Singapore per capita income was only about USD400. When Lee stepped down in 1990, the gure was USD11,000 and in 2014 it went up to over 56,000, even higher than that of its former colonizer, Great Britain. In his memoirs
published in 2000, he wrote ‛They laughed at us, but I was confident that we would have the last laugh.’ Born into a middle-class Chinese family in Singapore, Lee was in fluenced by the language and institutions of the British rulers. He was destined to go to the UK to study law, but the Second World War broke out and he had to go to the local Raffles College where he learnt some economics. It was not until 1946 when he talked his way to Cambridge and graduated three years later with a starred first. It was during this time that he nurtured ambitions beyond starting a legal career back home. As a prime minister, he has always been described as an efficient and inventive person. He was one of the greatest statesmen who proved to the whole world that human ingenuity, not natural resources, is the essential element of prosperity. Lee is also believed to be very forward-looking. When Singapore gained independence in 1965, he decided to keep English as the main language to increase economic benefits. Although many of his policies are still considered controversial, they helped Singapore to overcome many obstacles and become one of the most admired international business and financial centres around the world.

In 1930, there were about 10 million African elephants in the wild. In 1989, when they were added to the international list of the most (3) species, there were about 600,000 remaining. Elephant numbers have dropped by 62% over the last decade, and they could be mostly extinct by the end of the next decade. An estimated one hundred African elephants are killed each day by poachers (4) ivory, meat, and body parts, leaving only 400,000 alive today. Asian elephants have never been as (5) as African ones, and today they are even more endangered. At the turn of the century, there were an estimated 200,000 Asian elephants.

Homework: Translate the passage into Vietnamese THE TEXT: Elephants are a keystone species, and they play an important role in maintaining biodiversity. Below are some examples. While looking for food, elephants pull down trees and break up thorny bushes, which helps to create grasslands for other animals to inhabit. In addition, they use their feet to dig up salt licks that are rich in nutrients for themselves and for other animals. Their footprints also create deep holes that water can collect in. Other species rely on this water source in the dry season.
Most importantly, elephant droppings are vital to the environment. Animals such as baboons and birds pick up undigested seeds and nuts from these droppings for their food. This type of waste also works as a kind of manure, which helps humans to have fertile soil to plant their crops. Elephant droppings are also a vehicle for dispersing seeds and making them grow. Some types of seeds will not germinate unless they have passed through an elephant's digestive system. So, if elephants become extinct, those seeds would not grow into trees, leading to an increase in soil erosion and flooding. What would happen if there were no more elephants on Earth? Elephants maintain the ecosystems in which they live, and make it possible for a lot of other plant and animal species to survive in those environments as well. In a nutshell, if elephants become extinct, many other species will disappear.

Ở một xã hội mà tỉ lệ thất nghiệp khá cao, người tuyển dụng thường có nhiều lựa chọn ứng viên hơn. Họ thường thích những ứng viên với nhiều kĩ năng lao động hơn – những kĩ năng cần thiết để trở nên và giữ vững sự thành công trong công việc. Những kĩ năng này khác nhau, từ cơ bản như tìm kiếm quảng cáo công việc, viết CV và thư giới thiệu, và vượt qua vòng phỏng vấn đến những kĩ năng cao hơn được yêu cầu để làm công việc lâu dài. Giữa danh sách dài những kĩ năng lao động cao, điều quan trọng đối với tất cả những người tìm việc là trang bị cho mình kĩ năng cá nhân, giao tiếp và khả năng lãnh đạo để trở nên và giữ được sự thành công trong một việc.
Những kĩ năng cá nhân rất quan trọng khi tìm kiếm công việc. Chúng là những kĩ năng mà mọi người dùng để tương tác với người khác, Những người có kĩ năng cá nhân tốt thường cộng tác và làm việc tốt với những người khác trong một nhóm. Họ cũng giỏi việc thương lượng và làm hài lòng những người tham gia. Trong công việc hàng ngày, kĩ năng cá nhân cho phép họ thông cảm với đồng nghiệp cũng như khách hàng, từ đó xây dựng quan hệ công việc tốt. Đó, như là một kết quả, đưa đến một môi trường làm việc tốt hơn với ít hơn hoặc thậm chí không có căng thẳng. Kĩ năng giao tiếp cũng quan trọng với người tìm việc hoặc người muốn được thăng tiến trong sự nghiệp hiện tại của họ vì những ông chủ hiện nay muốn tìm những nhân viên có thể giao tiếp tốt cả về ngôn ngữ nói và ngôn ngữ viết với nhiều người. Những người giao tiếp tốt có thể nói và viết một các rõ ràng và súc tích, truyền tải thông điệp của họ mà ít bị hiểu nhầm. Họ cũng có thể sử dụng từ vựng phong phú và dùng ngôn ngữ sao cho phù hợp với từng đối tượng. Bên cạnh kĩ năng cá nhân và kĩ năng giao tiếp, có khả năng lãnh đạo cũng là một lợi thế khi tìm việc và giữ việc. Những người có khả năng lãnh đạo có xu hướng gây ảnh hưởng đến người khác qua những thành quả đạt được. Vì vậy, họ thường tạo ra những thành viên tốt trong đội và làm cho họ làm việc trong nhóm để đạt được kết quả tốt nhất. Thật khó để có một công việc. Và còn khó hơn để giữ công việc đó, thành công và có được sự thăng tiến trong công việc. Tuy vậy, nếu moi người biết các tương tác đúng và giao tiếp tốt với người khác, và nếu họ có được khả năng lãnh đạo, họ có thể gia tăng cơ hội có được công việc mà họ muốn.
Handouts: In a society where the unemployment rate is relatively high, employers usually have greater choice of applicants. They tend to favour the candidates with more employability skills – the skills necessary for getting, keeping, and being successful in a job. These skills are varied, ranging from basic ones such as searching for job adverts, writing CVs and covering letters, and coming across well in interviews, to the more advanced skills which are required in order to keep a job for a long time. Among the long list of more advanced employability skills, it is very important for all job seekers to equip themselves with interpersonal skills, communication skills, and leadership ability in order to keep and be successful in a job. Interpersonal skills are really crucial when seeking employment. They are the skills that people use to interact with each other. People with good interpersonal skills often co-operate and work well with the others in a team. They are also good at negotiating and satisfying the expectations of the people involved. In their daily work, interpersonal skills allow them to empathise with colleagues as well as clients, thereby building better working relationships. This, as a result, leads to a better working environment with little or no stress. Communication skills are also important for people who are seeking employment or looking for a promotion in their current career because employers nowadays want to find employees who communicate well both verbally and in writing with a wide variety of people. Good communicators can speak and write clearly and succinctly, getting their messages across with less chance of misunderstanding. They can also demonstrate a varied vocabulary and tailor their language to different audiences. Besides interpersonal and communication skills, having leadership ability is also an advantage in seeking and keeping employment. The people with leadership ability tend to influence others towards the achievement of a goal. Thus, they often make great team players, allowing them to work in a group to achieve the best results for their employer. It is hard to get a job. It is even harder to keep it, succeed in it, and gain a promotion. However, if people know how to interact properly and communicate well with others, and if they possess leadership ability, they can increase their chance of getting and keeping the job they want.

Consolidation: Read the text on the topic of CHOOSING A CAREER and do the task 5. Homework: Translate the passage into Vietnamese TIPS FOR STUDENTS TO SECURE WORK EXPERIENCE The following tips may help secondary students to secure work experience at the company of their choice. 1. Setting goals Students should assess what they are seeking to achieve. They should also think about their passions, interests, and personal strengths, and how they can apply them as part of the workforce. For example, if students have a passion for music, they may be able to turn that talented to working in a music shop. 2. Listing chosen jobs and companies Students can create a ‘wish list’ of different types of jobs that they are interested in, and make a list of all of the companies in their local area that they would like to work for. 3. Contacting people for help Students may speak to teachers, family, and friends to see if they know anyone who works for one of their target organisations, because these people may be able to assist them. If students do not have any existing contacts, they may research online for contacts with the company of their choice. 4. Building a CV Employers will ask for a student's CV, so students should speak to teachers, family or friends for tips on how to write a CV. They may also get in touch with a recruitment agency for their advice. A CV should include students'contact details and their achievements at school. 5. Making their move Schools or colleges will contact organisations on students' behalf. However, if their school or college does not offer this service, students should consider phoning the companies on their wish list and ask to speak to someone about work experience opportunities. Students may go to the company in person and ask for the relevant contact at reception. They should take copies of their CV with them, because they may be asked to leave one behind. 6. Dressing to impress If students are invited to the company for an interview, they are always advised to dress in a smart manner to impress people.
7. Preparing for their first day Students should ask questions about their new work placement. They should know how to get there, what time they should arrive, who to ask for, and if there is anything they need to bring with them. 8. Keeping an open mind Students should always be friendly, open, flexible, and hard-working to impress the company they are working for. They may be asked to do some tasks that are not as interesting as others, but they should try their best with everything that is given to them. 9. Asking for feedback Students should ask for written feedback so that they have something to show to their future employers. Their school or college may provide them with a feedback form. If they don't, students should ask for feedback on their competencies. These include time management, communication following instructions, customer service, and working with other people. 10. Following up Once students have completed their work experience they should send the company a thank you letter. The company has invested time and money to have students with them, so students shou d share their feedback and the experience they have had during their time with the company. That way, if a job opportunity comes up in the future, the company just may call them. KEY: Học sinh nên tiếp cận những gì họ muốn đạt được. Họ cũng nên suy nghĩ về đam mê, sở thích và điểm mạnh của bản thân và họ có thể làm gì khi là một phần của lực lượng lao động. Ví dụ, nếu những học sinh có đam mê về âm nhạc, họ có thể biến tài năng đó trở thành làm việc trong một cửa hàng nhạc. Học sinh có thể tạo ra một danh sách những công việc khác nhau mà họ hứng thú, và tạo một danh sách tất cả những công ty trong địa phương của họ mà họ muốn làm. Học sinh có thể nói chuyện với giáo viên, gia đình và bạn bè để xem họ có biết ai đó làm trong một trong số những tổ chức mà họ hướng đến, bởi vì những người này có thể sẽ trợ giúp cho họ. Nếu họ sinh không có một liên hệ nào, họ có thể nghiên cứu trên mạng để tìm liên lạc với công ty mà họ chọn. Nhà tuyển dụng sẽ hỏi học sinh về CV, nên học sinh nên nói chuyện với giáo viên, gia đình hoặc bạn bè để có những mẹo viết CV. Họ có thể liên hệ với nhà tư vấn tuyển dụng để xin lời khuyên. Một CV nến bao gồm cả thông tin liên lạc của học sinh và những thành tích đạt được ở trường. Trường học hoặc trường đại học sẽ liện hệ với các tổ chức thay mặt học sinh. Tuy nhiên nếu trường của họ không có dịch vụ này, học sinh nên cân nhắc việc gọi điện đến những công ty trong danh sách và đề nghị được nói chuyện về cơ hội kinh nghiệm việc làm. Học sinh có thể tự đến công ty và hỏi thông tin liên hệ từ quầy lễ tân. Họ nên mang theo bản sao CV, vì công ty có thể đề nghị họ để lại một bản. Nếu học sinh được mời đén công ty để phỏng vấn, họ sẽ luôn được khuyên ăn mặc một cách thông minh để gây ấn tượng. Học sinh nên hỏi những câu hỏi về nơi làm việc mới của họ. Họ nên biết làm thế nào để đến đó, mấy giờ nên đến, ai để hỏi và có thứ gì cần mang đến không.
Học sinh nên thể hiện thân thiện, cơi mở, linh hoạt và chăm chỉ để gây ấn tượng với công ty mà học làm việc. Họ có thể được đề nghị làm một số việc không mấy thú vị nhưng họ nên cố gắng hết sức với mọi thứ được giao cho. Học sinh nên xin ý kiến đóng góp viết tay để có thứ cho nhà tuyển dụng khác trong tương lai. Trường của họ nên cung cấp một mẫu đơn đóng góp ý kiến. Nếu không có, học sinh nên xin ý kiến đóng góp về khả năng của mình. Nó bảo gồm quản lý thời gian, giao tiếp theo hướng dẫn, dịch vụ khách hàng và làm việc với người khác. Một khi học sinh hoàn thành trải nghiệm làm việc, họ nên gửi cho công ty một lá thư cảm ơn. Công ty đã dành thời gian và tiền bạc để có những học sinh làm việc, nên học sinh nên chia sẻ ý kiến và kinh nghiệm mình có được trong thời gian làm ở công ty. Bằng cách đó, nếu có một cơ hội việc làm trong tương lai, công ty có thể sẽ gọi họ.

Tạm dịch: Học tập suốt đời đang trở thành một điều bắt buộc với mọi người trong thế giới hiện đại. Nhiều người, mặc dù vậy, thấy điều này là quá sức, khi làm một người học tập suốt đời họ sẽ phải tiếp tục học suốt đời. Dưới đây là vài chiến lược để ứng dụng học tập trọn đời.
Đầu tiên, bắt đầu với một mục đích rõ ràng. Học thứ gì đó mà bạn sẽ có thể dùng nhiều trong tương lai. Thiết kế những mục tiêu học tập mà phục vụ bạn trong sự nghiệp cũng như thuộc sở thích cá nhân của bạn. Bạn sẽ cần suy nghĩ về trải nghiệm học tập như là sự đầu tư liên tục hơn là một ham muốn tức thời. Thứ hai, chọn học một thứ gì thực sự thú vị với bạn. Bạn sẽ cần phải có niềm vui thông qua việc tiếp nhận kiến thức và kĩ năng, việc này giống như một hành trình vô tận. Phần vui vẻ sẽ làm bạn có động lực, cho dù có những lúc khó khăn. Thứ ba, bạn sẽ cần chấp nhận rằng ngày nay, giáo dục không chỉ đơn giản là chuẩn bị cho cuộc sống. Thời đại mới có nghĩa là những phương tiện mới: cuộc sống cũng là sự giáo dục. Với suy nghĩ như vậy, bạn sẽ dám đối mặt với thử thách như là một cơ hội để phát triển. Thứ tư, học tập chọn đời là không chỉ là về tiếp tục học tập; bạn sẽ cần nghĩ về những thứ bạn đã học và tìm ra cách áp dụng nó vào công việc và cuộc sống cá nhân của bạn. Đừng đọc quá nhiều và dùng não quá ít. Nghĩ nhiều hơn sẽ làm trung hòa những ý tưởng mà kiến công việc hoặc cuộc sống của bạn tốt hơn.
Đây là những chiến lược chìa khóa để bảo đảm rằng việc học tập trọn đời của bạn là học thông minh hơn là học chăm chỉ. Hãy ghi nhớ, hoạt động học tập trọn đời là không thể dừng lại; và thế giới hiện nay được chia ra không phải theo mạnh và yếu, không phải thông minh và ngốc nghếch; không phải may mắn hay kém may mắn. Sự khác biệt là giữa những người học và những người không học: những người từ chối học suốt cuộc đời.
