Read the passage 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 1 to 8.
When several farmers merge plots into a single “project farm”, they use digital tools to make that
teamwork far more effective. GPS mapping, drones, and in-field sensors build a live, shared picture of
soil types, weather shifts, and plant growth. Because everyone works on the same data, the team can
settle seeding dates, determine when to spray, and track machinery in real time. What once depended on
guesswork is now driven by verifiable information.
With GPS technology, farmers can accurately map out their fields and create customised planting
plans. Seeding machines change their rate on the fly, drones spray pests on targeted zones, and smart
spreaders apply fertiliser only where data shows a need. Because inputs go exactly where they help,
fields yield more while chemical runoff falls. Trials report considerable savings on seed, fuel, and
sprays – benefits the partners split at the season's end.
Water management is just as precise. Specialised equipment tracks moisture every hour, and
forecast apps predict rain, wind, or heatwaves. Automated pumps deliver measured water amounts to
thirsty zones and stop when a storm is coming, slashing waste and energy bills. The result is steadier
yields in dry years, fewer nutrients washed away, and a smaller water footprint for the whole partnership.
Smart irrigation also helps limit weed growth, reducing herbicide use.
The journey from field to market is equally digital. Cloud platforms record harvest weights, storage
temperatures, and shipment times the moment they change, while blockchain records freeze each entry so
customers can rely on it. Analytic tools browse the records to indicate weak points in the procedure,
forecast prices, and suggest better planting plans for the next season to project partners. This makes
project farming both profitable and sustainable.

Read the passage 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 20 to 29.
We seem to be entering a boom era for greenwashing – the tactic of covering routine pollution in
eco-friendly language. [I] Picture running a high-emitting corporation: meaningful decarbonisation would
demand painful negotiations, huge capital outlays, and a full redesign of the business model. Hiring an
expert agency to splash “carbon-neutral” or “net-zero” across products is far easier, buying time while
emissions remain untouched.
Consumers meet this sleight of hand everywhere. Airlines sell “carbon-neutral” flights, filling
stations boast about “net-zero” fuel, and breakfast bacon is re-labelled as planet-safe. Advertising spin is
old, yet today it is manipulated to conceal ongoing environmental damage. Social media influencers and
glossy sustainability reports amplify these claims, broadcasting the narrative far beyond traditional
marketing channels.
The term greenwashing emerged in the 1980s, an era of oil spills and growing climate science, but
the practice has exploded only recently. [II] Intensifying public anxiety over global heating and
ecosystem collapse has placed companies under sharp scrutiny; many boards therefore choose eyecatching PR over the tougher route of restructuring supply chains, energy sources, and product lines.
Regulators on both sides of the Atlantic are struggling to police false eco-claims, yet enforcement still
lags behind corporate ingenuity. Investors, eager to protect short-term returns, frequently applaud these
surface-level initiatives, reinforcing the cycle. [III] No sector illustrates the issue better than oil and gas.
Having realised that denying climate science now backfires, the industry has swapped denial for “green”
paint. Press releases trumpet potential renewable ventures while drilling plans expand unabated.
Why does this matter? Greenwashing and climate denial share a core objective: to postpone the
deep emission cuts claimed by scientists as urgent this decade. [IV] Whereas denial disputes the crisis,
greenwashing misleads the public into believing problems are solved, thereby eroding consumer
advocacy of genuine environmental actions and stalling regulatory reforms. In effect, it acts as a soothing
lullaby, guiding society ever closer to ecological breakdown while fostering a false sense of progress.
Exposing the facade – and insisting on verifiable, measurable carbon reductions – is essential if
rhetoric is to give way to real action.
(Adapted from https://www.greenpeace.org.uk)
Question 20. According to paragraph 1, having products claimed as eco-friendly rather than conducting
meaningful decarbonisation will _______.
A. bring about a full redesign of the business model of a company
B. lead to delays without solving the current emission problem
C. cause physical injuries to those involved in the negotiation
D. involve spending a huge amount of money paying the agency
Question 21. The word manipulated in paragraph 2 mostly means _______.
A. randomly deployed
B. legally regulated
C. purposely adjusted
D. hastily produced
Question 22. Which of the following best summarises paragraph 2?
A. The stories about greenwashing reach a much wider audience due to the joint effort of social media
and traditional marketing channels.
B. Commercials for everyday products and services, ranging from holiday bookings to petrol pumps and
bacon packs, are prevalent on unconventional marketing channels.
Trang 3/4 - Mã đề thi 1102
C. Social media influencers and impressive reports have a role to play in the dissemination of deceptive
environmental claims.
D. Sustainability buzzwords now fill every sector, with their reach being amplified by influencers and
polished reports.
Question 23. What causes corporate boards to adopt greenwashing?
A. Increasing public concern about environmental issues
B. Public pressure on corporations to opt for PR campaigns
C. Growing public interest in the development of climate science
D. Public belief that carbon reductions are unnecessary
Question 24. What challenge do regulators face in monitoring greenwashing claims?
A. Enforcement that falls behind corporate creativity B. Insufficient public support
C. A lack of clear terminology
D. Conflicting laws on both sides of the Atlantic
Question 25. The phrase the practice in paragraph 3 refers to _______.
A. global heating
B. scrutiny
C. climate science
D. greenwashing
Question 26. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 4?
A. For empty slogans to be realised into moves, revelations about greenwashing and practical measures
to reduce carbon are required.
B. Greenwashing is, in fact, a fallacy and therefore should be replaced by feasible actions which are
encouraged through public movements.
C. To make way for meaningful activities in reality, it is vital to expose the public to proper and specific
measures to reduce emissions.
D. The real solution to the issue of carbon is to verify and measure carbon reductions rather than just
raise public awareness through campaigns.
Question 27. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. Regulators are effectively utilising the tools and resources to verify most environmental claims,
tackling the wide spread of eco-labels.
B. Greenwashing brings corporations benefits in terms of finance and reputation without having to
reform their core operations.
C. The shift from denying climate science to applying “green” paint reflects high-emitting industries'
genuine commitment to renewables.
D. Investors who value long-term environmental impact put pressure on companies to implement
substantial structural reforms.
Question 28. Where in the passage does the following sentence best fit?
Yet greenwashing is arguably more insidious.
A. [IV]
B. [III]
C. [II]
D. [I]
Question 29. Which of the following best summarises the passage?
A. Greenwashing is surging as firms cover ongoing pollution in eco-friendly rhetoric, distracting the
public and postponing the deep emission cuts scientists deem urgent.
B. High-emitting sectors follow the trend of greenwashing, boasting about promising renewable ventures
in press releases while quietly going on damaging the environment.
C. Instead of investing in meaningful decarbonisation, major emitters have a tendency to opt for denying
the claim of “carbon-neutral” or “net-zero” on their product lines.
D. Once a prevalent strategy of corporations in response to public scrutiny, climate denial is losing its
effectiveness and has to be replaced by greenwashing.
