This passage discusses different perspectives on globalization. It notes that while few oppose globalization entirely, there is debate around how to govern globalization for maximum benefit. Supporters stress removing trade barriers to efficiently allocate capital and give consumers choice. Critics argue this prioritizes profits over people and the environment. They believe some successful countries used protectionism, and globalization risks a "race to the bottom" in standards. Determining appropriate market regulation on a global scale is a key 21st century issue.

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 27 to 36.
New surveys suggest that the technological tools we use to make our lives easier are killing our leisure
time. We are working longer hours, taking fewer and shorter vacations (and when we do go away, we take
our cell phones, PDAs, and laptops along). And, we are more stressed than ever as increased use of e-mail,
voice mail, cell phones, and the Internet is destroying any idea of privacy and leisure.
Since the Industrial Revolution, people have assumed that new labor-saving devices would free them from
the burdens of the workplace and give them more time to grow intellectually, creatively, and socially -
exploring the arts, keeping up with current events, spending more time with friends and family, and even just
‘goofing off’.
But here we are at the start of the 21st
century, enjoying one of the greatest technological boom times in
human history, and nothing could be further from the truth. The very tools that were supposed to liberate us
have bound us to our work and study in ways that were inconceivable just a few years ago. It would seem
that technology almost never does what we expect.
In ‘the old days’, the lines between work and leisure time were markedly clearer. People left their offices
at a predictable time, were often completely disconnected from and out of touch with their jobs as they
traveled to and from work, and were off-duty once they were home. That is no longer true. In today's highly
competitive job market, employers demand increased productivity, expecting workers to put in longer hours
and to keep in touch almost constantly via fax, cell phones, e-mail, or other communications devices. As a
result, employees feel the need to check in on what is going on at the office, even on days off. They feel
pressured to work after hours just to catch up on everything they have to do. Workers work harder and
longer, change their work tasks more frequently, and have more and more reasons to worry about job
security.
Bosses, colleagues, family members, lovers, and friends expect instant responses to voice mail and e-mail
messages. Even college students have become bound to their desks by an environment in which faculty,
friends, and other members of the college community increasingly do their work online. Studies of time spent
on instant messaging services would probably show staggering use.
This is not what technology was supposed to be doing for us. New technologies, from genetic research to
the Internet, offer all sorts of benefits and opportunities. But, when new tools make life more difficult and
stressful rather than easier and more meaningful - and we are, as a society, barely conscious of it - then
something has gone seriously awry, both with our expectations for technology and our understanding of how
it should benefit us.
From “Summit 1” by Joan Saslow & Allen Ascher
Question 27: According to the first three paragraphs, technological tools that were designed to make our
lives easier ______.
A. have brought us complete happiness B. have fully met our expectations
C. have not interfered with our privacy D. have turned out to do us more harm than good
Question 28: Which of the following is NOT true about technological tools, according to new surveys?
A. They make our life more stressful. B. They bring more leisure to our life.
C. They are used even during vacations. D. They are being increasingly used.
Question 29: Which of the following is true, according to the passage?
A. People have more opportunities to get access to technological applications.
B. Employees were supposed to make technology do what they expected.

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 67 to 76.
Very few people, groups, or governments oppose globalization in its entirety. Instead, critics of
globalization believe aspects of the way globalization operates should be changed. The debate over
globalization is about what the best rules are for governing the global economy so that its advantages can
grow while its problems can be solved.
On one side of this debate are those who stress the benefits of removing barriers to international trade and
investment, allowing capital to be allocated more efficiently and giving consumers greater freedom of choice.
With free-market globalization, investment funds can move unimpeded from the rich countries to the
6. Trang 6/7 - Mã đề thi 637
developing countries. Consumers can benefit from cheaper products because reduced taxes make goods
produced at low cost from faraway places cheaper to buy. Producers of goods gain by selling to a wider
market. More competition keeps sellers on their toes and allows ideas and new technology to spread and
benefit others.
On the other side of the debate are critics who see neo-liberal policies as producing greater poverty,
inequality, social conflict, cultural destruction, and environmental damage. They say that the most developed
nations - the United States, Germany, and Japan - succeeded not because of free trade but because of
protectionism and subsidies. They argue that the more recently successful economies of South Korea, Taiwan,
and China all had strong state-led development strategies that did not follow neo-liberalism. These critics think
that government encouragement of “infant industries” - that is, industries that are just beginning to develop -
enables a country to become internationally competitive.
Furthermore, those who criticize the Washington Consensus suggest that the inflow and outflow of money
from speculative investors must be limited to prevent bubbles. These bubbles are characterized by the rapid
inflow of foreign funds that bid up domestic stock markets and property values. When the economy cannot
sustain such expectations, the bubbles burst as investors panic and pull their money out of the country.
Protests by what is called the anti-globalization movement are seldom directed against globalization itself
but rather against abuses that harm the rights of workers and the environment. The question raised by
nongovernmental organizations and protesters at WTO and IMF gatherings is whether globalization will result
in a rise of living standards or a race to the bottom as competition takes the form of lowering living standards
and undermining environmental regulations.
One of the key problems of the 21st
century will be determining to what extent markets should be
regulated to promote fair competition, honest dealing, and fair distribution of public goods on a global scale.
