Đề thi thử THPT 2026 môn Tiếng anh – Sở GDĐT Đồng Tháp

The shift towards the flipped classroom model is gaining momentum, and modern technology acts as a powerful catalyst for this ongoing transformation. Advanced technologies such as video hosting, interactive quizzes, and data analytics are used to optimise learning practices. Additionally, the collected real-time data on student engagement enables teachers to accelerate the feedback process that maximises comprehension while minimising passive listening in class.

Video lectures allow students to learn new concepts at home and create customised study paces. This ensures that reliance on traditional one-size-fits-all teaching is significantly reduced. By avoiding long in-class lectures, schools can cut down on student boredom. Smart learning management systems provide real-time progress stats, so teachers do not have to guess who is struggling. This, therefore, helps mitigate academic failure and save valuable class time for every student involved.

Technology also plays a vital role in optimising group activities for collaborative education. Specialised platforms report participation hour by hour, and algorithms predict which topics will need review for the week ahead. Automated groupings adjust to the students’ skill levels exactly how they need to and pause when a concept is fully mastered. This cuts frustration and protects vulnerable learners. In overcrowded public schools, such innovations make personalized learning highly viable.

The digital trail does not stop at the classroom door. Cloud platforms let teachers, parents, and administrators input behavioral notes the moment they change, while secure databases freeze each entry so everyone can trust the records. Analytic tools combine seasons of records to forecast graduation rates, spot curriculum weaknesses, and mark points for necessary intervention.

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 25 to 34.

We seem to be entering a boom era for the “15-minute city” – the tactic of redesigning urban areas to prioritize pedestrians over cars. Picture running a traditional sprawling metropolis: meaningful traffic reduction would demand painful negotiations, huge infrastructure budgets, and a full redesign of the transit model. Adopting a “bike-friendly” label for a few downtown streets is far easier, buying time while overall car dependency remains untouched.

Citizens meet this urban planning sleight of hand everywhere. Mayors sell “green” avenues, councils boast about “pedestrian zones”, and basic painted bike lanes are re-labelled as revolutionary mobility networks. Political spin is old, yet today it is manipulated to overstate the actual livability of these neighborhoods. Urban influencers and glossy architectural magazines amplify these claims, broadcasting the narrative far beyond traditional town hall meetings.

The concept of localized living emerged decades ago, but hastily rebranding cities has exploded only recently. Intensifying public anxiety over gridlock traffic and air pollution has placed city planners under sharp scrutiny; many politicians therefore choose eye-catching PR over the tougher route of overhauling zoning laws, expanding public transit, and restricting private vehicles. This political maneuver allows them to appease voters while enforcement still lags behind municipal marketing ingenuity. Exhausted commuters, eager for a shorter trip to work, frequently applaud these surface-level initiatives, reinforcing the cycle.

Why does this matter? Over-hyped urban projects and car-centric planning share a core objective to postpone the deep systemic reforms claimed by mobility experts as urgent in this decade. [I] Traditional highway expansion had obvious flaws that the public could easily recognize and criticize. [II] Unregulated “smart” urbanism misleads citizens into believing the traffic problem is instantly solved by simple painted lines. [III] This illusion thereby erodes advocacy for genuine infrastructure investment. [IV] In effect, it acts as a soothing lullaby, guiding society away from active commuting while fostering a false sense of progress. Exposing the facade – and insisting on comprehensive, accessible transit networks – is essential if rhetoric is to give way to real mobility.

Question 25. According to paragraph 1, adopting a “bike-friendly” label rather than a full transit redesign will ______.

A. cause severe traffic accidents in the downtown streets immediately

B. bring about a complete halt in urban infrastructural development

C. lead to delays without changing the overall dependency on cars

D. involve spending huge amounts of money on pedestrian bridges
Đáp án: C

Question 26. The word manipulated in paragraph 2 mostly means ______.

A. hastily produced

B. purposely adjusted

C. randomly deployed

D. legally regulated
Đáp án: B

Question 27. Which of the following best summarises paragraph 2?

A. Commercials for organic food and sustainable cars are highly prevalent on town hall meetings.

B. Urban influencers have absolutely no role in the dissemination of deceptive city planning claims.

C. Eco-friendly buzzwords dominate urban marketing, with their reach amplified by influencers.

D. The stories about traditional highways reach a wider audience due to architectural magazines.
Đáp án: C

Question 28. What causes politicians to adopt eye-catching urban PR?

A. Growing public support for the mass production of private vehicles

B. A lack of public interest in using modern public transportation

C. Intensifying public anxiety over gridlock traffic and air pollution

D. Public belief that expanding public transit is completely unnecessary
Đáp án: C

Question 29. What challenge do regulators face in monitoring urban-claims made by cities?

A. A lack of clear terminology to define what a pedestrian zone is

B. Insufficient commuter support for the construction industry

C. Enforcement that falls behind municipal marketing ingenuity

D. Conflicting zoning laws in different metropolitan areas
Đáp án: C

Question 30. The phrase This political maneuver in paragraph 3 refers to ______.

A. expanding public transit

B. choosing eye-catching PR

C. overhauling zoning laws

D. restricting private vehicles
Đáp án: B

Question 31. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 3?

A. Tired workers, desiring quicker commutes, often support these superficial projects, which only helps to sustain this repetitive pattern.

B. The repetitive cycle of long commutes is finally broken when exhausted workers applaud new urban initiatives.

C. Commuters are so exhausted by these surface-level initiatives that they actively protest the cycle of urban planning.

D. Exhausted travelers are strictly required to take shorter routes to work in order to support local surface-level initiatives.
Đáp án: A

Question 32. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

A. Mobility experts generally support smart urban projects as a necessary transition before deep systemic reforms.

B. The concept of the “15-minute city” is entirely responsible for the increasing public anxiety over gridlock traffic.

C. The decrease in public pressure, caused by superficial urban projects, allows authorities to safely avoid implementing costly transit reforms.

D. The obvious flaws of traditional highway expansions make them a more deceptive strategy than smart urbanism.
Đáp án: C

Question 33. Where in the passage does the following sentence best fit?

The new trend of relying on superficial mobility labels, unfortunately, is arguably much more insidious.

A. [III]

B. [IV]

C. [I]

D. [II]
Đáp án: D

Question 34. Which of the following best summarises the passage?

A. Citizens are completely losing interest in pedestrian zones and increasingly preferring traditional highway expansions.

B. High-end architects follow the trend of the 15-minute city to increase property prices while quietly going bankrupt.

C. The municipal government has successfully cured gridlock traffic thanks to advanced urban algorithms and bike lanes.

D. Urban areas use eco-friendly transit rhetoric to mask ongoing car dependency, misleading citizens and delaying real infrastructure reforms.
Đáp án: D
