We're all faced with difficult problems on a regular basis. In fact, sometimes you might feel like you'll be crushed by the weight of your problems. But how many of us use special creative problem-solving techniques to tackle these problems? "I didn't know there were special techniques," you say. Believe it or not, many experts have given a lot of thought to the problem of problem solving.
(Tất cả chúng ta đều phải đối mặt với những vấn đề khó khăn một cách thường xuyên. Trên thực tế, đôi khi bạn có thể cảm thấy như bị đè bẹp bởi sức nặng của những vấn đề của mình. Nhưng có bao nhiêu người trong chúng ta sử dụng các kỹ thuật giải quyết vấn đề sáng tạo đặc biệt để giải quyết những vấn đề này? "Tôi không biết có những kỹ thuật đặc biệt," bạn nói. Bạn có tin không, nhiều chuyên gia đã suy nghĩ rất nhiều cho vấn đề của việc giải quyết vấn đề.)
- B không được đề cập
- A đúng vì “If you're still stuck, some experts recommend going for a walk. That's right-you should literally walk away from the problem.” – “Nếu cảm thấy bế tắc, 1 số chuyên gia khuyên rằng ban nên đi dạo. Đúng là thế - đi dạo với nghĩa đen, để lòng này nhẹ bớt.”
- C đúng vì “Once you've asked these questions and answered them, potential solutions may start popping up like popcorn. Or they may not.” – “Một khi bạn đã đặt ra những câu hỏi như vậy và trả lời chúng, những giải pháp tiềm năng có thể bắt đầu nở ra, giống như bắp rang bơ vậy. Hoặc có thể những giải pháp này không xuất hiện.”
- D đúng vì “If you still come up empty-handed at this point, you might try an unusual technique that some experts recommend.” – “Nếu đến bước này rồi mà vẫn chẳng nghỉ ra nổi giải pháp nào, thì sẽ thử 1 phương pháp mới lạ mà các chuyên gia khuyến nghị xem sao.”

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 36 to 42
A row of mangrove trees sticking out of the sand, exposed by low tide off Kutubdia island in the Bay of Bengal, is all that remains of a coastal village that for generations was home to 250 families. The villagers were forced to flee as their land, which had been slowly eroding for decades, was finally engulfed by the ever- rising tide five years ago. For the embattled people, the distant trees serve as a bittersweet reminder of what they have lost. They also act as a warning of what is to come.
UN scientists predict some of the worst impacts of climate change will occur in south-east Asia, and that more than 25 million people in Bangladesh will be at risk from sea level rise by 2050. It is well known that many of the countries most vulnerable to climate change are among those who contribute to it the least, and here that’s certainly true. The carbon footprint of Kutubdia’s 100,000 islanders is small – most do not even have access to a regular electricity supply. But they fear that for them, time is already running out.
So far, members of the fishing community of Ali Akbar Dail, perched precariously on a strip of coast next to the embankment, have learnt to adapt to the many natural disasters thrown at them. When the cyclones hit, they hoist their children on to their shoulders and head for the network of cyclone shelters.
These shelters, along with the country’s early warning system, have dramatically reduced fatalities. However, after a year that they say has brought more - and more powerful -storms than before, the fishermen are engaged in a battle for survival against their only asset: the ocean.
Scientists say the sinking of islands in the Bay in Bengal is due to natural and possibly man-made climate change. Erosion linked to storm surges, for instance, predate global warming. But sea surface temperatures, linked to sea level rise, have risen in the Bay of Bengal. In a report published last month, scientists said they believed the higher surface temperatures in the Indian Ocean were causing cyclones to increase their frequency and intensity.
There are too many challenges. People are losing their ancestral land, and they are having to migrate to other places. There, they have to adapt to a new environment. But in their new home, they are still anxious and uncertain about the future.
