Making the leap from school to university
Getting into university is an important event for young people. While most students are excited about it, they should also be aware of the difference between university and school.
At school, most of your learning is done in the classroom. Teachers give you regular assignments and provide support and resources to help you complete them. Meanwhile, most of your learning at university involves self-studying and project work that you need to plan and complete by a certain date. It is your responsibility to review lecture notes, read textbooks, and do research to find information in the library or online.
Your relationships at school are often limited to schoolmates or classmates. You interact with them mostly in a school environment; therefore, your group of friends is small and very familiar. By contrast, at university, you not only have more contacts, but you also meet people from different backgrounds. Therefore, you need better social skills to deal with any conflict you may come into when interacting with other people.
As a secondary school student, you also live with your parents who provide you with the daily care and support you need. You don’t have to worry about things such as shopping or cooking for yourself. You have your parents take care of your physical and mental well-being. Once you go to university, you will probably move away from home and start to live independently. You need to improve your life skills so that you can manage your own life.
Question 27: What is the text mainly about?
A. A comparison between school life and university life. 
B. An explanation why university life is more interesting.
C. Advice on how to leap into university life.
D. A report on the difficulties of university life.
Question 28: What does the word ‘them’ in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. classrooms                            B. teachers                        C. assignments                   D. resources
Question 29: What does most of the learning at university involve?
A. Classroom interactions                                B. Group of friends
C. Self-studying and project work                        D. Small social circle
Question 30:. The word ‘contacts’ in paragraph 3 mostly means __________.
A. people you know                                 B. physical interactions you have
C. people you want to contact                 D. social benefits you have
Question 31: According to the passage, what do university students need better social skills for?
A. to interact with familiar classmates                                          B. to manage their own life skills
C. to deal with conflicts with people from different background    D. to complete regular assignments

So, youve probably heard about climate change. But what changes are happening? The Earth has become warmer by about one degree Celsius since 1880. Why should we care about a one-degree difference? In the past, when the temperature dropped by one to two degrees, the Earth was put into the Little Ice Age, which lasted from the fourteenth to the mid-nineteenth- century. Europe and North America experienced years of long winters leading to poor crops and people dying of hunger. So, as temperature increases, ice is melting faster, and sea levels are rising. In the future, some places will face more deadly storms and floods while other places will experience more heat waves and wildfires. Most scientists agree that the cause of climate change is because of human activity. Burning fuel, which produces greenhouse gases, for electricity and transportation is the main cause. These gases trap the suns heat. Cutting down forests also contributes to global warming because trees help reduce the amount of carbon dioxide. CO₂ is the most common greenhouse gas. Forests also trap water during heavy rainfall and slow down speed of water flowing into rivers. This helps to reduce flooding. So, what should we do? First,...

Good morning everyone. My name is David. I come from Canada and I have been doine an undergraduate course in Viet Nam for two years. Today Id like to share with you my study-abroad experience.
Well, my experience in Viet Nam has been great so far. My classes take place at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities in Hanoi.
Im taking courses in Vietnamese history and economic development. The faculty staff are very friendly and helpful, and the programme coordinator is very organized, knowledgeable and thorough. He is always available for any emergencies, making sure that I have everything I need.
I live with a host family and have my own room, which is comfortable and clean, and has the Internet.
When I first arrived, I was completely over the moon with everything, but then I realise that I was experiencing a culture shock. Luckily, I had the support of my host family. Since I came, Ive been included in all family gatherings and outings. I also took an intensive Vietnamese language course and at the end of the first year, I was able to freely communicate with my host family in Vietnamese. This also helped me integrate with the local culture. Viet Nam is quite a safe country although the roads are a bit dangerous. I was really worried when I used a friends motorbike to get around the city.
Things are not expensive here so I can easily live on a students budget. I usually eat breakfast and dinner with my host family, and lunch with my Vietnamese fellow students. Vietnamese food is very healthy and delicious, and I have my favourite dishes. Ill miss my host mums cooking very much when I go back home!
I think this programme of study has been worthwhile. Ill return home as a much stronger, confident and culturally sensitive person.

By contrast, at university, you not only have more contacts, but you also meet people from different backgrounds. Therefore, you need better social skills to deal with any conflict you may come into when interacting with other people.
As a secondary school student, you also live with your parents who provide you with the daily care and support you need. You don’t have to worry about things such as shopping or cooking for yourself. You have your parents take care of your physical and mental well-being. Once you go to university, you will probably move away from home and start to live independently. You need to improve your life skills so that you can manage your own life.

So, youve probably heard about climate change. But what changes are happening? The Earth has become warmer by about one degree Celsius since 1880. Why should we care about a one-degree difference? In the past, when the temperature dropped by one to two degrees, the Earth was put into the Little Ice Age, which lasted from the fourteenth to the mid-nineteenth- century. Europe and North America experienced years of long winters leading to poor crops and people dying of hunger. So, as temperature increases, ice is melting faster, and sea levels are rising. In the future, some places will face more deadly storms and floods while other places will experience more heat waves and wildfires. Most scientists agree that the cause of climate change is because of human activity. Burning fuel, which produces greenhouse gases, for electricity and transportation is the main cause. These gases trap the suns heat. Cutting down forests also contributes to global warming because trees help reduce the amount of carbon dioxide. CO₂ is the most common greenhouse gas. Forests also trap water during heavy rainfall and slow down speed of water flowing into rivers. This helps to reduce flooding. So, what should we do? First,...

Good morning everyone. My name is David. I come from Canada and I have been doine an undergraduate course in Viet Nam for two years. Today Id like to share with you my study-abroad experience.
Well, my experience in Viet Nam has been great so far. My classes take place at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities in Hanoi.
Im taking courses in Vietnamese history and economic development. The faculty staff are very friendly and helpful, and the programme coordinator is very organized, knowledgeable and thorough. He is always available for any emergencies, making sure that I have everything I need.
I live with a host family and have my own room, which is comfortable and clean, and has the Internet.
When I first arrived, I was completely over the moon with everything, but then I realise that I was experiencing a culture shock. Luckily, I had the support of my host family. Since I came, Ive been included in all family gatherings and outings. I also took an intensive Vietnamese language course and at the end of the first year, I was able to freely communicate with my host family in Vietnamese. This also helped me integrate with the local culture. Viet Nam is quite a safe country although the roads are a bit dangerous. I was really worried when I used a friends motorbike to get around the city.
Things are not expensive here so I can easily live on a students budget. I usually eat breakfast and dinner with my host family, and lunch with my Vietnamese fellow students. Vietnamese food is very healthy and delicious, and I have my favourite dishes. Ill miss my host mums cooking very much when I go back home!
I think this programme of study has been worthwhile. Ill return home as a much stronger, confident and culturally sensitive person.
