RICH DOGS When wealthy people pass away, they usually leave instructions for what to do with the money or property that they leave behind. Often, the money and property go to their heirs. However, in some cases, rich pet owners leave their wealth to their pets after they die. For example, there is a poodle named Toby. When this poodle’s owner passed away, she left Toby 15 million pounds (about $25 million). Then there is Flossie, a yellow Lab mutt, who is not only rich, but is also famous. In 2001, Flossie made the headlines after she rescued her owner, the actress Drew Barrymore and Drew’s husband, from a house fire. To thank Flossie, Drew gave her house to Flossie. Of course, Drew repaired the fire damage first. Now, Flossie is the owner of a beautiful $3 million home. It may seem strange for a dog to own such an expensive home, but Flossie is not the only dog like that. Gunther IV, a German Shepherd, bought his home from Madonna and paid over $7 million for the house. However, this was no big deal for him because Gunther IV has about $200 million! This makes him the richest dog in the world. He inherited the money from his father, who was the heir to the fortune of a German countess. Question 22: What could be another title for this reading?

Online identity: is authenticity or anonymity more important? Before Facebook and Google became the megaliths of the web, the most famous online adage was: "on the internet, no one knows you're a dog". It seems the days when people were allowed to be dogs is coming to a close. The old web, a place where (27) ______ could remain separate from real life, is rapidly disappearing from the computer screen. The pursuit of authenticity is creeping into the heart of most social media models and in the current internet landscape is playing an important role in how we engage with one (28) ______ and with web content. For many people, Facebook and Google products are the sum total of their web interaction, and the value in creating a platform that provides confidence that a person is who they say they are, rather someone pretending to be them, is (29) ______ to a social network's success. Within this model, authentic identity is non-anonymous. Facebook profiles and Google IDs are tied to a person's real name and real connections, and increasingly to their activities across cyberspace.

A. desirable B. perfunctory C. necessary D. rational 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 34 to 40 Julie Francis feels stagnant. She has been stuck, quite literally, in her parent’s home in Michigan since May. It isn’t the worst thing in the world, she acknowledges; many people have suffered worse fates in 2020 due to Covid-19. But for the past few months, the drudgery of the job-search process has exhausted Francis, a Kettering University graduate in electrical engineering. “I’ve been averaging about three to five job applications a day since March, and I’ve only had four interview requests, two of which never got back to me,” said Kyle Arguello, a 24-year-old graduate of the University of New Mexico, who is searching for jobs in academic advising. “I’ve probably applied to around 1,400 positions in the Albuquerque metro area. That number sounds crazy, but that’s pretty much all I’ve been doing.” Arguello’s anecdote, and that of many others his age, is one of desperation, of realizing that the uncertainty of the present supersedes any five- or 10-year career plans. Arguello and his girlfriend have considered leaving New Mexico, since wages there are, on average, lower than in other states. But regardless of where they end up, Arguello is worried that his own “failure to launch” has begun to impact his life trajectory. “My girlfriend and I have cried about it”, he said. Are we going to have a shot at a life the older generation has?” Most young adults have little choice but to focus on the present and the potential benefits of an additional degree. Matt Duffy, a University of Florida graduate student, is optimistic that the extra year of schooling will help define his career path. Duffy, 22, told me. “If I’m not able to get a job because places aren’t hiring, I need to figure out how to survive.” Through a recent class assignment, he has cultivated a Facebook community with more than 100,000 members called Born Zillennial, as a space for young adults born in the mid to late 1990s. The page’s sudden growth, primarily driven by his TikTok promotion, inspired Duffy to rethink how he can monetize his digital skills. “Before this class, I didn’t even know what a community leader was,” he said. “Now with the group growing and the skills I’m learning in this course, I’m realizing how a community leader can be a job. I could start making money off the page somehow, maybe do some consulting, and bring value into the group.” Question 34: Which best serves as the title for the passage? A. Young adults: Hard hit by spiral of unemployment B. Think different, act different, make a difference C. The fresh pandemic of unemployment D. Unemployment: Fight or Flight? Question 35: The word "drudgery" in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______. A. fatigue B. pleasure C. happiness D. disloyalty Question 36: In paragraph 2, Arguello would like to apply for the position of ______. A. debt counselor B. career counselor C. student counselor D. marriage guidance counselor Question 37: The word "anecdote" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______. A. scientific proof B. oral story C. individual observation D. personal report Question 38: The word "it" in paragraph 4 refers to ______. Trang 3/4 - Mã đề thi 411

Matt Duffy, Julie Francis and Kyle Arguello’s stories expose an alarming rate of unemployment today C. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel if you dare to think and act differently. D.
