Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each question.

In cities across Vietnam, from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City, a green trend is growing. Young people are filling their rooms and favorite cafes with houseplants. This is not just for decoration; many believe these plants are natural air purifiers. Shops and social media often promote specific plants as being excellent at cleaning the air. But is this popular belief based on solid science, or is it more of a hopeful myth?

The idea that plants can clean indoor air comes from a famous 1989 NASA study. Researchers found that common houseplants could absorb harmful chemicals called volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from the air in a sealed laboratory chamber. This process happens as the plant takes in gases through its leaves and the microorganisms in the soil also play a part. The study was originally intended to explore life support systems for potential space stations.

However, translating these findings to a typical home or bedroom is complicated. The NASA experiment was conducted in a small, airtight chamber. Our rooms are much larger and have constant air exchange from windows, doors, and ventilation systems. Therefore, the cleaning effect of a few plants in a normal-sized room is actually quite minor. You would need an enormous number of plants—perhaps hundreds—to have a noticeable impact on air quality.

So, should you get rid of your plants? Absolutely not. While they may not be powerful air filters, houseplants offer other proven benefits. Studies show they can reduce stress, boost mood, and improve focus. They add beauty and a touch of nature to our urban lives. It's best to appreciate houseplants for these qualities, rather than relying on them to solve air pollution problems.

Question 31

Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

  1. How to Choose the Best Air-Purifying Plant
  2. Houseplants: More for Mood Than for Clean Air
  3. The Famous NASA Study on Air Quality
  4. Why Vietnamese Cities Need More Greenery

Question 32

According to paragraph 2, what was a key finding of the 1989 NASA study?

  1. That plants were only effective in potential space stations.
  2. That common houseplants could remove certain harmful chemicals from the air.
  3. That only specific, rare tropical plants could clean the air.
  4. That microorganisms in the soil were more effective than the leaves.

Question 33

The word absorb in paragraph 2 is CLOSEST in meaning to...

  1. produce
  2. take in
  3. block
  4. reflect

Question 34

The word minor in paragraph 3 is OPPOSITE in meaning to...

  1. unimportant
  2. significant
  3. frequent
  4. temporary

Question 35

Which of the following best describes the structure of the passage?

  1. It presents a problem, lists several solutions, and recommends the most effective one.
  2. It introduces a popular claim, provides its scientific basis, critiques its real-world application, and offers an alternative perspective.
  3. It argues for a specific viewpoint and uses personal anecdotes to support it.
  4. It compares and contrasts the benefits of different types of houseplants for city living.

Question 36

What does the author of the passage imply about people who buy plants primarily to purify their air?

  1. They are contributing significantly to solving urban pollution.
  2. They may have overestimated the plants' air-cleaning capabilities.
  3. They often regret their decision to buy so many plants.

Four phrases/ sentences have been removed from the text below. For each question, choose the correct option that best fits each of the numbered blanks.

Many students believe that 'cramming,' or studying intensely right before an exam, is an effective strategy. It often involves long hours of reviewing notes and trying to memorize as much information as possible in a short period. (37) __________. However, relying on this technique is a major mistake for anyone who wants to achieve real, long-term learning.

The problem lies in how our brains create memories. (38) __________. This type of memory is like a temporary storage folder on a computer; it's easily forgotten. For knowledge to become permanent, it needs to move to long-term memory through a process called consolidation, which requires time and sleep. (39) __________. This technique works with your brain's natural rhythm to build strong, lasting knowledge.

In conclusion, while cramming might offer a temporary solution for a single exam, it fails to build a solid foundation of understanding. (40) __________.

A. A better approach is 'spaced repetition,' where you review material at increasing intervals over time

B. When you cram, the information only enters your short-term memory
