EXAMPLE:

The Reading Passage has five sections, A-E

1. Hearing impairment or other auditory function deficit is young children can have a major impact on their development of speech and communication, resulting in a detrimental effect on their ability to learn at school. This is likely to have major consequences for the individual and the population as a whole. The New Zealand Misnistry of Health has found from research carried out over two decades that 6-10% of children in that country are affected by hearing loss.

2. A preliminary study in New Zealand has shown that classroom noise presents a major concern for teachers and pupils. Modern teaching practices, the organization of desks in the classroom, poor classroom acoustics, and mechanical means of ventilation such as air-conditioning units all contribute to the number of children unable to comprehend the teacher’s voice. Education researchers Nelson and Soli have also suggested that recent trends in learning often involve collaborative interaction of multiple minds and tools as much as individual possession of information. This all amounts to heightened activity and noise levels, which have the potential to be particularly serious for children experiencing auditory function deficit. Noise in classrooms can only exacerbate their difficulty in comprehending and processing verbal communication with other children and instructions from the teacher.

3. Children with auditory function deficit are potentially failing to learn to their maximum potential because of noise levels generated in classrooms. The effects of noise on the ability of children to learn effectively in typical classroom environments are now the subject of increasing concern. The International Institute of Noise Control Engineering (I-INCE), on the advice of the World Health Organization, has established an international working party, which includes New Zealand, to evaluate noise and reverberation control for school rooms.

4. While the detrimental effects of noise in classroom situations are not limited to children experiencing disability, those with a disability that affects their processing of speech and verbal communication could be extremely vulnerable. The auditory function deficits in question include hearing impairment, austistic spectrum disorders (ASD) and attention deficit disorders (ADD/ADHD).

5. Autism is considered a neurological and genetic life-long disorder that causes discrepancies in the way information is processed. This disorder is characterized by interlinking problems with social. 

 Chúng ta chọn B ở câu số 1

-  Câu 2: ở đoạn B, ta có thể thấy tác giả nhắc đến “classroom noise” ở câu đầu tiên; đồng thời có nhắc đến “Modern teaching practices, organization of desks in the classroom, ...” ở câu thứ 2 chính là nguyên nhân (reason) dẫn đến classroom noise.

 Chúng ta chọn C ở câu số 2

-  Câu 3: ta thấy ở đoạn D, tác giả đề cập một số chứng rối loạn (disorder) như “autistic spectrum disorders”, “attention deficit disorders” => đây là medical conditions

 Chúng ta chọn D ở câu số 3

-  Câu 4: nhìn vào câu cuối của đoạn A, ta thấy có nhắc đến tỉ lệ trẻ gặp vấn đề về thính giác: “The New Zealand Ministry of Health has found from research carried out over two decades that 6-10% of children in that country are affected by hearing loss”

 Chúng ta chọn A ở câu số 4
