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. 

        As any student can tell you, sometimes it takes a lot of work and effort to commit information to memory before a big exam. However, some other events, details, and experiences enter our memory with little or no effort. For example, you might hear a catchy song on the radio once and still remember its tune days or weeks later. So why does it seem like some things are so difficult to remember and other things so easy? What’s the difference?

                When you’re trying to intentionally remember something (like a formula for your statistics class or a list of dates for your history class), this information is stored in your explicit memory. People use these memories every day, from remembering information for a test to recalling the date and time of a doctor’s appointment. There are two types of explicit memory: episodic memory, which is your long-term memories of specific events, like what you did yesterday or your high school graduation, and semantic memory, which is memories of facts, concepts, names, and other general knowledge.

                Things that people don’t have to purposely try to remember are stored in implicit memory. This kind of memory is both unconscious and unintentional. Some examples of implicit memory include singing a familiar song, typing on your computer keyboard, and brushing your teeth. Riding a bike is another example. Even after going years without riding one, most people who have already learned how to ride a bike are able to hop on and ride it effortlessly without thinking consciously.

These two major types of memory play important roles in shaping your ability to recall pieces of information and interact with things in your environment. Knowing some of the major differences between them is important for understanding how memory works.

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

                While watching sports on TV, the chances are children will see professional players cheating, having tantrums, fighting, or abusing officials. In addition, it’s highly likely that children will be aware of well-known cases of sportspeople being caught using drugs to improve their performance. The danger of all this is that it could give children the idea that winning is all that counts and you should win at all costs. Good behavior and fair play aren’t the message that comes across. Instead, it looks as if cheating and bad behavior are reasonable ways of getting what you want. This message is further bolstered by the fact that some of these sportspeople acquire enormous fame and wealth, making it seem they are being handsomely rewarded either despite or because of their bad behavior.

                What can parents do about this? They can regard sport on television as an opportunity to discuss attitudes and behavior with their children. When watching sports together, if parents see a player swearing at the referee, they can get the child’s opinion on that behavior and discuss whether a player’s skill is more important than their behavior. Ask what the child thinks the player’s contribution to the team is. Point out that no player can win a team game on their own, so it’s important for members to work well together.

                Another thing to focus on is what the commentators say. Do they frown on bad behavior from players, think it’s amusing or even consider it’s a good thing? What about the officials? If they let players get away with a clear foul, parents can discuss with children whether this is right and what effect it has on the game. Look too at the reactions of coaches and managers. Do they accept losing with good grace or scowl and show a bad attitude? Parents can use this to talk about attitudes to winning and losing and to remind children that both are part of sport.

                However, what children learn from watching sports is by no means all negative and parents should make sure they accentuate the positives too. They should emphasize to children the high reputation that well-behaved players have, not just with their teammates but also with spectators and the media. They can focus on the contribution made by such players during a game, discussing how valuable they are in the team. In the interviews after a game, point out to a child that the well-behaved sportspeople don’t gloat when they win or sulk when they lose. And parents can stress how well these people conduct themselves in their personal lives and the good work they do for others when not playing. In other words, parents should get their children to focus on the positive role models, rather than the antics of the badly behaved but often more publicized players.

Question 44: The word “accentuate” in paragraph 4 can be best replaced by _____ .

                A. consolidate                  B. embolden                  C. actualize                      D. highlight

Question 45: According to paragraph 2 what should parents teach their children through watching sports?

                A. A player’s performance is of greater value than his behavior.

                B. Cheating is frowned upon by the majority of players.

                C. A team with badly-behaved players will not win a game.

                D. Collaboration is fundamental to any team’s success

Question 46: Which of the following about sport is NOT mentioned in the passage?

                A. Misconduct from sportspeople may go unpunished despite the presence of officials.

                B. Reactions of coaches and managers when their teams lose a game may be of educational value.

                C. Many sports people help others so as to project good images of themselves

                D. A well-behaved player enjoys a good reputation among his teammates, spectators and the media.

Question 47: The word “bolstered” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _____.

                A. energized                      B. reinforced                C. inspired                         D. represented

Question 48: The word “They” in paragraph 4 refers to _____.

                A. parents                  B. teammates                  C. children                  D. spectators

Question 49: Which of the following does the passage mainly discuss?

                A. The influence of model sportspeople on children 

                B. Moral lessons for children from watching sports

                C. Different attitudes toward bad behavior in sport 

                D. The importance of team spirit in sport

Question 50: According to paragraph 1, misconduct exhibited by players may lead children to think that _____.

                A. it is necessary in almost any game                 

                B. it is disadvantageous to all concerned

                C. it is an acceptable way to win the game       

                D. it brings about undesirable results

ChatGPT: Chatbot AI mới có mọi người nói chuyện với nó

Một chatbot mới đã vượt qua một triệu người dùng trong vòng chưa đầy một tuần, dự án đằng sau nó cho biết. ChatGPT đã được OpenAI, một công ty nghiên cứu trí tuệ nhân tạo có những người sáng lập bao gồm Elon Musk, phát hành công khai vào thứ Tư. ChatGPT là sản phẩm mới nhất trong một loạt AI mà công ty gọi là GPT, một từ viết tắt của Generative Pre-Trained Transformer. Để phát triển hệ thống, một phiên bản ban đầu đã được tinh chỉnh thông qua các cuộc trò chuyện với những người huấn luyện con người. Hệ thống cũng đã học được từ việc truy cập dữ liệu Twitter theo một tweet từ Elon Musk, người không còn là thành viên hội đồng quản trị của OpenAI. Ông chủ Twitter viết rằng ông đã tạm dừng quyền truy cập “vào lúc này”. Kết quả đã gây ấn tượng với nhiều người đã dùng thử chatbot. Giám đốc điều hành OpenAI Sam Altman đã tiết lộ mức độ quan tâm đến người đối thoại nhân tạo trong một tweet. Dự án cho biết định dạng trò chuyện cho phép AI trả lời “các câu hỏi tiếp theo, thừa nhận sai lầm của mình, thách thức các cơ sở không chính xác và từ chối các yêu cầu không phù hợp” Một nhà báo của trang tin tức công nghệ Mashable, người đã dùng thử ChatGPT cho biết rất khó để kích động cái mẫu này nói những điều xúc phạm. Tuy nhiên, OpenAI cảnh báo rằng “ChatGPT đôi khi viết những câu trả lời nghe có vẻ hợp lý nhưng không chính xác hoặc vô nghĩa”. Được BBC đặt câu hỏi ngắn gọn cho bài viết này, ChatGPT tiết lộ mình là một người được phỏng vấn thận trọng có khả năng diễn đạt rõ ràng và chính xác bằng tiếng Anh.
