Have your friends ever made you do something you do not like? If yes, give an example.

- Manipulation: When a friend uses guilt, intimidation or other tactics to get you to do something you don't want to do, it can feel like they are taking advantage of you.
- Ignoring: When a friend consistently cancels plans or doesn't make time for you, it can make you feel undervalued and unimportant.
- Insulting: When a friend makes fun of you or insults you, even as a joke, it can be hurtful and erode your self-esteem.

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 46 to 50.
In today’s fast-paced industry, learning will most likely involve seeking new skills in ways that challenge the norm. But thankfully, there is a promise for such lifelong learning online - the promise that will save your time and money while helping you earn more of both.
Provided you have access to a decent computer and the Internet, the barrier to getting started is probably lower than it ever has been. And with those things in place, it is a matter of finding the content you wish to learn. So, to help others who may be looking to maximize their own learning efforts, I have listed some quick tips below.
First, set achievable goals. When you start learning, it is a good idea to set goals about what you want to learn or what you might do with your newly acquired knowledge. It might be landing that new job, building a tangible product, or impressing your current management. The goals may vary in size and complexity, but do revisit these goals throughout your learning process. Within a couple weeks, ask yourself: “Am I getting closer to my goal?” or “Am I learning the skills necessary to reach my goals?”. If you are not, then you may need to look elsewhere.
Second, learn with others. By yourself, learning anything has a high propensity to become frustrating. Try teaming up with friends or colleagues. They can often be your best resource for maintaining motivation while you learn.
Third, make it a habit. Online habits often include scrolling through social media or watching videos on YouTube. If you have the downtime for such activities, then you could spend that downtime learning something. And why not learn something? If you do, then you will have plenty more to talk about on social media anyways. So, make learning your new online habit by making a commitment to learn something new each day

Dịch bài đọc:
Trong ngành công nghiệp phát triển nhanh ngày nay, việc học tập rất có thể sẽ liên quan đến việc tìm kiếm các kỹ năng mới theo những cách thách thức các tiêu chuẩn. Nhưng may mắn thay, có một hứa hẹn cho việc học trực tuyến suốt đời như vậy - hứa hẹn sẽ tiết kiệm thời gian và tiền bạc của bạn trong khi giúp bạn kiếm được nhiều hơn cả hai.
Miễn là bạn có quyền truy cập vào một máy tính tốt và Internet, rào cản để bắt đầu có lẽ thấp hơn bao giờ hết. Và với những điều đó, vấn đề là tìm ra nội dung bạn muốn học. Vì vậy, để giúp những người khác có thể đang tìm cách tối đa hóa nỗ lực học tập của chính họ, tôi đã liệt kê một số mẹo nhanh dưới đây.
Đầu tiên, đặt mục tiêu có thể đạt được. Khi bạn bắt đầu học, bạn nên đặt mục tiêu về những gì bạn muốn học hoặc những gì bạn có thể làm với kiến thức mới có được. Nó có thể là công việc mới, xây dựng một sản phẩm hữu hình hoặc gây ấn tượng với quản lý hiện tại của bạn. Các mục tiêu có thể khác nhau về quy mô và độ phức tạp, nhưng hãy xem lại những mục tiêu này trong suốt quá trình học tập của bạn. Trong vòng một vài tuần, hãy tự hỏi bản thân: Tôi có đang tiến gần hơn đến mục tiêu của mình không? hay “ Tôi có đang học những kỹ năng cần thiết để đạt được mục tiêu của mình không? Nếu bạn không, vậy thì bạn có thể cần phải tìm nơi khác.
Thứ hai, học với người khác. Tự mình, học bất cứ điều gì rất dễ dẫn đến bực bội. Hãy thử hợp tác với bạn bè hoặc đồng nghiệp. Họ thường có thể là nguồn lực tốt nhất của bạn để duy trì động lực trong khi bạn học.
Thứ ba, biến nó thành thói quen. Thói quen trực tuyến thường bao gồm lướt qua phương tiện truyền thông xã hội hoặc xem video trên YouTube. Nếu bạn lãng phí thời gian cho những hoạt động như vậy, thì bạn có thể dành thời gian chết đó để học một cái gì đó. Và tại sao không học được điều gì? Nếu bạn làm như vậy, thì bạn sẽ có nhiều thứ hơn để nói về phương tiện truyền thông xã hội. Vì vậy, hãy biến việc học thành thói quen trực tuyến mới của bạn bằng cách cam kết học một cái gì đó mới mỗi ngày
