competition from social media, government officials and analysts say. Deputy Minister of Communications

Nguyen Huy Dung stated at a forum last Friday that newspapers and magazines saw their revenues decrease by 
9.4% in the first nine months of last year.
 The situation is even worse for radio and TV, which saw a 23% decline in revenue. It was mentioned that 
most broadcast companies are not using all their advertisement slots because there is a lack of demand. Some 
broadcasters sell advertisements for only a few minutes a day, even though the law allows them to use 10% of 
their broadcast time for ads for non-subscribers and 5% for subscribers.
 Advertisements remain the main source of income for media companies and could account for 90% of their 
revenues. However, the rise of social media platforms like Facebook and Google is taking away their customers. 
Some newspapers have tried to adopt a subscription model, but this approach is still new in Vietnam and brings 
modest income. Analysts speaking at the forum also spoke about these challenges.
 Nguyen Thanh Lam, another deputy communications minister, mentioned that the ministry plans to make 
changes to the Journalism Law to help improve media companies' revenues. One of these changes is a mechanism 
that would allow the government to pay for some content it wants to appear in newspapers. Other changes would 
tighten copyright protection, as many media companies have long been affected by plagiarism. However, he added 
that the most important changes must come from the media companies themselves. They need to rethink the way 
they practice journalism and make money from it.
26. Which of the following titles best fits the main idea of the text?
 A. The rise of social media
 B. Challenges faced by traditional media
 C. Government plans for new laws
 D. The importance of advertisements
27. Broadcasting companies are not filling in all their advertisement slots because .
 A. there is not enough demand
 B. they can only sell ads for a short time a day
 C. the government does not allow them to do so
 D. they prefer to show more programs
28. What does the word approach in paragraph 3 most likely mean?
 A. problem
 B. change
 C. method
 D. source
29. What is mentioned as a change the ministry will make to increase revenues for media companies?
 A. Allowing plagiarism between different media companies
 B. Permitting the companies to pay for things appearing in newspapers

Bài nghe 1:
Ben: Okay, let's get started, Karen. We are going first tomorrow.
Karen: Okay Ben.The first topic is charities advertising more.
Ben: Hmm, advertising would help more people hear about charities, and the more people that know about them, 
the more donations they'll get.
Karen: Yeah, that sounds right.
Ben: Okay, next. Businesses using more eco-friendly packing.
Karen: I think companies would get good publicity.
Ben: Agree.
Karen: They would also probably spend more money.
Ben: Good point, but they probably make more money from the publicity. I think the more eco-friendly packing 
business is used, the more money they'll make.
Karen: Okay, you can talk about that.
Ben: Next, charities protesting more.
Karen: I think charities would get more publicity and maybe more donations.
Ben: I don't think so. Charities can get bad publicity from protesting.
Karen: You're right. Good point
Ben: Next people using gas-powered cars less.
Karen: That's easy. Gas-powered cars emit a lot of CO2 and make people's carbon footprints larger.
Ben: Yeah, but other presenters might say that. Let's say something more interesting. It also means more people 
will drive electric cars. They still need to travel somehow.
Karen: True, and the more electric cars there are, the less you too, we will admit.
Ben: Sure, okay, the last more. more incentives to businesses for being eco-friendly
Karen: What incentives?
Ben: Maybe paying less tax or something.
Karen: Hmm, okay
 De-Thi.com Tổng hợp 14 Đề thi Giữa kì 2 tiếng Anh Lớp 12 (Global Success) - Đáp án đầy đủ - De-Thi.com
Ben: Well, I think it depends on the incentives and how good they are.
Karen: Yeah, the more incentives they offer, the more eco-friendly this will probably be.
Ben: Agree.
Karen: Okay, we have enough to talk about tomorrow.

Jack: Hey, Nick. I've always been worried that playing video games may be harmful, but I've read that they can 
actually benefit students in some ways.
Nick: Really? How can they benefit students?
Jack: Well, playing video games can help a student's memory. They train the brain and improve its ability to 
remember information, both in the short and long term.
Nick: That's fascinating! I never thought about it that way. What else did you find?
Jack: It seems that students can be inspired to teach others through games. My classmates always show each other 
how to get through different levels, collect items, and combine elements to succeed. It's like they're learning to 
help each other out, which I think is a great skill.
Nick: That's true. Our classmates do the same when they play with their friends. It's like they're learning 
leadership without even realising it.
Jack: Exactly! In fact, games can improve those skills as well. When playing in groups, students take turns being 
the leader and the follower, and playing online games exposes them to a variety of age groups and cultures.
Nick: It seems like a fantastic method to develop social skills. You know, my classmates made quite a few friends 
through gaming.
Jack: Yes, games create a common interest that helps them make friends, both online and in person. It's more than 
just having fun; it's about connecting with others.
Nick: I never thought of video games like that. It's nice to see there's more to it than just entertainment.
