Đề bài

Read the following passage about Friction-maxxing and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 23 to 30.

The Art of Intentional Inconvenience

Modern existence is defined by omnipresent digital shortcuts that promise peak efficiency but often leave us spiritually hollow. While technologies like food delivery apps or automated navigation offer immediate ease, they simultaneously infantilise users by stripping away the vital necessity of struggle. This "frictionless" lifestyle creates a psychological vacuum, where the absence of effort prevents individuals from experiencing the profound fulfillment typically derived from conquering life's inevitable, messy human hurdles.

Embracing "friction-maxxing" involves deliberately selecting cumbersome paths to expand one's mental boundaries. By manually researching complex subjects or opting for arduous physical journeys, people cultivate cognitive fortitude. These intentional inconveniences serve as a whetstone for the mind, sharpening our ability to endure discomfort. This philosophy acts as a lighthouse amidst the dense fog of modern instant gratification, steadily guiding us back toward a reality where all personal growth is truly earned.

Furthermore, this movement encourages pragmatic vulnerability through radical acts of imperfection. Hosting guests in an unpolished home, for instance, exposes us to the social sting of judgment. Instead of maintaining a curated facade, individuals learn to prioritize authenticity over artificial perfection. This shift fosters a thicker skin, allowing people to reclaim their agency. Consequently, they begin to view social friction not as a threat but as a powerful catalyst for transformation.

Ultimately, the goal isn't to reject innovation but to remain vigilant against tools that erode our sovereignty. Choosing the "hard way" transforms mundane chores into transformative exercises of self-discovery. By reintroducing struggle, we reveal hidden capacities and achieve a lasting sense of purpose. This intentional friction ensures that we do not become mere passengers in our own lives but active architects of a more meaningful, self-reliant human experience for everyone.

Đề bài

Read the following passage about the Delhi’s Toxic "Fifth Season" and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.

Delhi’s winter smog is no longer a natural phenomenon but a recurring anthropogenic "fifth season." [I] For millions, this toxic haze represents an environmental breakdown where the atmosphere is no longer safe for basic human existence. As temperatures drop, atmospheric inversion exacerbates the density of pollutants, trapping them near the surface. Clean air, though a prerequisite for survival, has become a fading luxury. It is a fundamental right that is being systematically violated. This seasonal crisis reflects a failure to protect a landscape that should be held in trust for future generations.

The crisis stems from a lethal cocktail of vehicular emissions, industrial combustion, and agricultural residue burning. These sources release hazardous particulates that penetrate deep into human lungs, bypassing traditional biological defenses. While the constitution guarantees a right to life, the current ecological state suggests a blatant infringement of this mandate. [II] Consequently, it highlights a growing disparity between legal ideals and the lived reality of those breathing in the toxic smog.

This environmental breakdown is fundamentally a dereliction of duty by those in power. Despite robust environmental jurisprudence, the implementation of clean air policies remains sluggish and fragmented. These policies often fail to achieve their intended outcomes. The systemic failure to curb emissions reflects a moral bankruptcy within the governance structure. [III] Instead of proactive measures, the city often waits for a total collapse before acting. This inertia transforms a manageable health issue into a perpetual struggle, where they sacrifice the fundamental right to breathe for industrial and political convenience at the expense of public health.

Ultimately, the smog serves as a gaseous cage, imprisoning a population within their own homes. This is not a transitory inconvenience but an existential threat requiring immediate mitigation strategies. [IV] Shifting the narrative from mere survival to restorative action is essential to reclaiming the atmosphere. The struggle for clean air in Delhi is a litmus test for modern civilization. Without urgent political will and societal transformation, the "fifth season" will continue to haunt the capital, claiming lives with silent, invisible hands and eroding the future for everyone.
