Part 3. Read the following passage and choose the option A, B, C, or D that best answers the
questions. Write your answers in the numbered boxes.
Endangered species are a pressing concern in today’s world, representing the fragile balance of our
ecosystems and the need for conservation efforts. These species face a high risk of extinction due to various
factors, primarily human activities and environmental changes. The consequences of losing these species
would extend far beyond their individual existence, impacting the intricate web of life on our planet.
Human activities, such as habitat destruction, poaching, and pollution, are among the primary
causes of species endangerment. [A]. Rapid urbanization and expanding agricultural practices often result
in the destruction and fragmentation of natural habitats, leaving species without sufficient space, food, or
resources to survive. The relentless pursuit of resources, such as timber, minerals, and oil, further
exacerbates the destruction of critical ecosystems that support a diverse array of species.
Poaching remains a significant threat to many endangered species, driven by illegal wildlife trade
and the demand for products like ivory, fur, and exotic pets. [B]. Moreover, pollution from industrial
activities, chemicals, and pesticides contaminates habitats, affecting the health and reproductive capacities
of various species.
Environmental changes, including climate change and habitat degradation, pose additional
challenges to endangered species. Rising global temperatures, altered precipitation patterns, and extreme
weather events disrupt ecosystems, making it difficult for species to adapt and survive. Changes in
temperature and precipitation can affect breeding patterns, alter migration routes, and disturb the delicate
balance between predator and prey. [C]. These environmental shifts contribute to the decline of already
vulnerable populations, further pushing them towards extinction.
The consequences of losing endangered species extend beyond their intrinsic value. Each species
plays a unique role in its ecosystem, contributing to its stability and functioning. Removal of a single
species can trigger a domino effect, impacting the entire ecosystem. For example, the decline of pollinators
like bees and butterflies affects the reproduction of plants and can lead to reduced agricultural productivity.
Predatory species maintain the balance by controlling populations of prey species, preventing
overpopulation and ecosystem imbalances.
Trang 5/12
Legislative measures, public awareness campaigns, and on-ground conservation practices are
crucial ones to address the plight of endangered species and protect their habitats. These conservation
efforts need actions taken by both the publics and the authorities. Governments and international
organizations establish protected areas and implement laws to regulate hunting, trade, and habitat
destruction. |D]. Additionally, raising public awareness about the importance of biodiversity and the
impacts of human activities helps foster a sense of responsibility towards species conservation.
Conservation organizations and researchers work tirelessly to study and monitor endangered
species, gather data on population trends, and develop strategies for their protection. They engage in habitat
restoration projects, captive breeding programs, and reintroduction efforts to bolster populations and
restore balance to ecosystems. Such initiatives often involve collaboration with local communities,
engaging them in sustainable practices and promoting their involvement in species conservation.
Public participation is key to ensuring the success of conservation efforts. Individuals can contribute
by supporting conservation organizations, volunteering for wildlife surveys and monitoring programs, and
making informed choices as consumers. Responsible tourism can also play a significant role in promoting
sustainable practices that protect the habitats and well-being of endangered species.
Generally, endangered species are a crucial component of our planet's biodiversity, representing the
delicate interplay of life on Earth. Human activities and environmental changes pose significant threats to
these species, pushing them towards extinction. Protecting endangered species and their habitats requires
concerted efforts from governments, organizations, researchers, and the public. By recognizing the value
of these species and taking proactive measures to conserve them, we can strive towards a more sustainable
future that safeguards the diversity and resilience of our planet's ecosystems.

Part 4. Read the following passage carefully then do the tasks given below.
A. Poppy Dinsey, Fashion Blogger
It is 10 am on the first day of London Fashion Week and Poppy Dinsey has already been photographed
four times. “I think it’s the coat,” she says as yet another fashionista takes a snap of her canary yellow
mackintosh. The coat is just one example of Dinsey’s uncanny ability to channel the latest trends with
consummate ease. In 2010, she launched What [ Wore Today (wiwt.com), a blog that does exactly what it
says on the tin. Dinsey uploads photographs of her chosen outfit on a regular basis, accompanied by
irreverent commentary. The website has details of where to buy the clothes, and for each sale directed
through her blog, Dinsey gets a percentage. “It can be mentally strenuous at times, always having to think
ahead about my wardrobe, but that’s part of the job.” It is, perhaps, an improbable career for a woman with
a degree in business studies, but Dinsey insists she never liked the traditional mundane office environment.
The recent recession, Dinsey says, has changed young people’s attitude to spending. “There's a feeling that
there’s nothing to lose ... even though a lot of people are broke.” And does she already know what she will
be wearing tomorrow? “Oh yeah. I've got it all written down.” she laughs. “I've turned obsession into a
business.”
B. Jamal Edwards, Founder of an online music channel
Jamal Edwards, founder of SBTV, an online broadcaster of music promos, video interviews and
impromptu live performances, started the channel at the age of 16, after receiving a video camera as a
present. “I was filming foxes in my garden. When [ uploaded that, I got 1,000 views and [ was like, "What?
Let me just try something else”. Edwards started filming London rappers freestyling on the street. The
performances are raw and often quite gripping. But Edwards didn’t want to restrict himself to local
unsigned talent. “Narrow-minded people are like”, “Ah, he's filming all these pop stars,” says Edwards
“But I just shrug my shoulders.” His attitude appears to be paying off. Edwards says the channel, which
profits from advertising, has racked up hundreds of thousands subscribers, and he has got an 8-strong team
of employees. When [ ask him what the downsides are of being a young boss, Edwards says: “It’s a bit
daunting telling people what to do.” His advice to other young people with similar ambitions is to “chase
your dream, not the competition, because looking at the competition will cloud your vision and mess vou
up in the long run”. In 2017, Jamal was given an MBE by the Queen for his services to music.
C. Nicko Williamson, Founder of Climate Cars
Nicko Williamson's office is in a state of organized chaos. The shelves are filled with an assorted
jumble of stuff - two smartphones, a financial newspaper, and a novel which he has yet to read. “No time,”
he explains “A heavy workload is the nature of entrepreneurship.” It’s no surprise that Williamson is run
off his feet. In 2007, he launched the carbon-neutral taxi company, Climate Cars, after graduating in modern
history from Bristol University, When he finally sold the company in 20135, the business ran a fleet of more
than 100 cars and generated more than £1 m in profit. He had the idea for Climate Cars after driving past
a garage in Bristol that offered environmentally friendly car conversions. “It’s easy to get stuck in a rut and
not see the bigger picture. [ always loved cars but felt guilty about loving them,” admits Williamson, whose
great-grandfather, William Watson, was a racing-car driver, “Then I thought: why not make taxis greener?”
He sought investment from his family and friends and put together a business plan while writing his
dissertation. He has already started another taxi company called Bounce. What are his ambitions for the
future? “To grow this business into one of the biggest car companies in London.”
D. Edwin Broni-Mensah, Creator of GiveMeTap
Trang 7/12
Edwin Broni-Mensah, you could argue, is a scholar or a philanthropist whose scheme is either naively
idealistic or brilliant or both. Either way, as soon as you've read about his idea, you'll be kicking yourself
for not having thought of it. It was through playing squash at university that Broni-Mensah came up with
GiveMeTap. Throughout studying for his PhD, sport was his sanctuary, yet something didn’t add up: “Tap
water is free and portable, yet I was spending a fiver a day on bottled water.” The concept of GiveMeTap
was born, which works like this: you purchase tidy blue bottle made from recycled aluminium for a few
pounds from his website and take it into any café which has signed up to the scheme. Your bottle is then
filled with tap water for free, thus reducing the wastage, helping communities in Africa install clean water
pumps (70% of the profits goes towards this) and saving you money. It may seem ludicrous to invest seven
years of education into a non-profit scheme. “All my friends are bankers and I'm their poor mate. But it’s
my choice.” he laughs. How did he manage to launch the project while also completing his PhD? “I follow
Parkinson’s Law: work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion.” Broni-Mensah thinks
our peculiar obsession with buying plastic bottles is little more than cultural conditioning. “Were too proud
to ask for free water in the same way we feel the need to buy crisps to use a cafe's toilet,” he says.
