Dịch bài đọc:

Nhiều người lớn ở Mỹ và số lượng ngày càng tăng ở nơi khác tham gia vào các chương trình cố vấn. Một người cố vấn là một người trưởng thành cung cấp hỗ trợ và tình bạn cho một người trẻ tuổi. Có rất nhiều cách khác nhau để cố vấn: truyền lại các kỹ năng, chia sẻ kinh nghiệm, đưa ra hướng dẫn. Đôi khi điều hữu ích nhất chỉ là lắng nghe. Cố vấn là dành cho bất kỳ ai - không yêu cầu kinh nghiệm chuyên môn cụ thể, chỉ mong muốn tạo sự khác biệt cho cuộc sống của một người trẻ tuổi cần sự giúp đỡ. Điều này có vẻ là một điều khó khăn lúc đầu, nhưng nhiều người thấy họ có một tài năng thực sự cho nó.

Sự hỗ trợ của một người cố vấn có thể đóng một phần quan trọng trong sự phát triển của trẻ và thường có thể bù đắp vào sự thiếu hướng dẫn trong cuộc sống của một người trẻ. Nó cũng có thể cải thiện thái độ của người trẻ đối với xã hội và xây dựng sự tự tin của họ trong việc đối phó với các thách thức của cuộc sống. Đối với người cố vấn, có thể rất bổ ích khi biết rằng họ đã có ảnh hưởng đáng kể đến một đứa trẻ và giúp chúng có cơ hội tốt nhất có thể trong cuộc sống. Thật vậy, không chỉ người lớn mới có khả năng đảm nhận vai trò này. Hiện nay có nhu cầu ngày càng tăng đối với thanh thiếu niên để cố vấn cho trẻ nhỏ, ví dụ bằng cách giúp chúng đọc sách hoặc các việc khác ở trường

CÂU HỎI HOT CÙNG CHỦ ĐỀ

Câu 1:

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 15 to 22.

[1] Advertising helps people recognize a particular brand, persuades them to try it, and tries to keep them loyal to it. Brand loyalty is perhaps the most important goal of consumer advertising. Whether they produce cars, canned foods or cosmetics, manufacturers want their customers to make repeated purchases. [2] The quality of the product will encourage this, of course, but so, too, will affect advertising.

Advertising relies on the techniques of market research to identify potential users of a product. [3] Are they homemakers or professional people? Are they young or old? Are they city dwellers or country dwellers? Such questions have a bearing on where and when ads should be placed. By studying readership breakdowns for newspapers and magazines as well as television ratings and other statistics, an advertising agency can decide on the best way of reaching potential buyers. Detailed research and marketing expertise are essential today when advertising budgets can run into thousands of millions of dollars. [4]

Advertising is a fast-paced, high-pressure industry. There is a constant need for creative ideas that will establish a personality for a product in the public's mind. Current developments in advertising increase the need for talented workers.

In the past, the majority of advertising was aimed at the traditional white family - breadwinner father, non-working mother, and two children. Research now reveals that only about 6 percent of American households fit this stereotype. Instead, society is fragmented into many groups, with working mothers, single people and older people on the rise. To be most successful, advertising must identify a particular segment and aim its message toward that group.

Advertising is also making use of new technologies. Computer graphics are used to grab the attention of consumers and to help them see products in a new light. The use of computer graphics in a commercial for canned goods, for instance, gave a new image to the tin can.

What does the passage mainly discuss?

Câu 2:

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheer to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 10 to 14.

In the past, technology and progress was very slow. People “invented” farming 12,000 years ago but it took 8,000 years for the idea to go around the world. Then, about 3,500 years ago, people called “potters” used round wheels to turn and make plates. But it took hundreds of years before some clever person thought, if we join two wheels together and make them bigger, we can use them to move things

In the last few centuries, things have begun to move faster. Take a 20th-century invention like the aeroplane, for example. The first acroplane flight on 17 December 1903 only lasted 12 seconds, and the plane only went 37 metres. It can't have been very exciting to watch, but that flight changed the world. Sixteen years later, the first plane flew across the Atlantic, and only fifty years after that, men walked on the moon. Technology is now changing our world faster and faster. So what will the future bring?

One of the first changes will be the materials we use. Scientists have just invented an amazing new material called graphene, and soon we will use it to do lots of things. With graphene batteries in your mobile, it will take a few seconds to charge your phone or download a thousand gigabytes of information! Today, we make most products in factories, but in the future, scientists will invent living materials. Then we won't make things like cars and furniture in factories - we will grow them!

Thirty years ago, people couldn't have imagined social media like Twitter and Facebook. Now we can't llve without them. But this is only the start. Right now, scientists are putting microchips in some disabled people's brains, to help them see, hear and communicate better. In the future, we may all use these technologies. We won't need smartphones to use social media or search the internet because the internet will be in our heads!

More people will go into space in the future, too. Space tourism has already begun, and a hundred years from now, there may be many hotels in space. One day, we may get most of our energy from space too. In 1941, the writer Isaac Asimov wrote about a solar power station in space. People laughed at his idea then, but we should have listened to him. Today, many people are trying to develop a space solar power station. After all, the sun always shines above the clouds!

Why does the writer use the example of the aeroplane?
