Chọn B
to make up one’s mind: quyết định làm gì
If you’ve made up your mind to achieve a certain goal
Dịch câu: Nếu bạn đã quyết định phải đạt được một mục tiêu nhất định
Dịch bài:
Có thể mất một thời gian dài để trở nên thành công trong lĩnh vực bạn chọn, dù cho bạn có tài năng đến thế nào.
Một điều bạn phải nhận thức là bạn sẽ phải đối mặt với những lời chỉ trích trên suốt đường đi. Thế giới đầy những người muốn nói gì đó tiêu cực hơn là tích cực. Nếu bạn đã quyết định đạt được một mục tiêu nhất định, chẳng hạn như viết một cuốn tiểu thuyết, đừng để những lời phê bình tiêu cực của người khác ngăn bạn đạt được mục tiêu của bạn và để những lời chỉ trích mang tính xây dựng có tác động tích cực đến công việc của bạn. Nếu ai đó nói rằng bạn hoàn toàn thiếu thiếu tài năng, hãy bỏ qua họ. Đó là những lời chỉ trích tiêu cực.
Tuy nhiên, nếu ai đó khuyên bạn nên sửa lại công việc của bạn và cho bạn một lý do chính đáng để làm như vậy, bạn nên xem xét các đề xuất của họ một cách cẩn thận. Có rất nhiều ngôi sao điện ảnh người đã từng mất việc. Có rất nhiều tiểu thuyết gia nổi tiếng đã tạo ra một mớ hỗn độn của tiểu thuyết đầu tiên của họ - hoặc những người không, nhưng phải tiếp tục tiếp cận hàng trăm nhà xuất bản trước khi họ có thể đưa nó xuất bản.
Thành công phụ thuộc vào vận may, ở một mức độ nhất định. Nhưng mọi thứ có nhiều khả năng sẽ tốt hơn nếu bạn kiên trì và giữ được tích cực.

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 30 to 37.
Over the past 600 years, English has grown from a language of few speakers to become the dominant language of international communication. English as we know it today emerged around 1350, after having incorporated many elements of French that were introduced following the Norman invasion of 1066. Until the 1600s, English was, for the most part, spoken only in England and had not extended even as far as Wales, Scotland or Ireland. However, during the course of the next two centuries, English began to spread around the globe as a result of exploration, trade (including slave trade), colonization, and missionary work. Thus, small enclaves of English speakers became established and grew in various parts of the world. As these communities proliferated, English gradually became the primary language of international business, banking and diplomacy.
Currently, about 80 percent of the information stored on computer systems worldwide is in English. Two-thirds of the world’s science writing is in English, and English is the main language of technology, advertising, media, international airports, and air traffic controllers. Today there are more than 700 million English users in the world, and over half of these are non-native speakers, constituting the largest number of non-native users than any other language in the world.
