Dịch bài đọc:
Lặn bằng bình khí là một môn thể thao trong đó bạn bơi dưới nước trong thời gian dài bằng cách sử dụng thiết bị đặc biệt. Từ Scuba thực ra là một từ viết tắt của thiết bị thở dưới nước khép kín. Lặn bằng bình khí là một cách tuyệt vời để ngắm một số địa điểm rất đẹp: các địa điểm lặn san hô với cuộc sống biển đầy màu sắc của chúng là nổi tiếng nhất ngoài các điểm lặn khác bao gồm xác tàu đắm và hang động.
Lặn bằng bình khí cũng có thể là một môn thể thao rất thư giãn và ở nhiều nơi, nó rất thân thiện với người mới bắt đầu. Nhiều địa điểm lặn có thể tới được (dưới sự quan tâm của một người hướng dẫn) sau một cuộc đào tạo lặn ngắn. Bạn có thể học cách lặn nhanh hơn nhiều so với bạn có thể học các môn thể thao ví dụ như tuyết. Nó cũng thích hợp cho những người có một số khuyết tật về thể chất. Miễn là bạn có thể sử dụng thiết bị thở và có thể tự đẩy mình thành công dưới nước, bạn có thể lặn.

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 31 to 35.
Just as you designate and separate your physical workspace, you should be clear about when you’re working and when you’re not. You’ll get your best work done and be most ready to transition back to the office if you stick with your regular hours. Plus, if your role is collaborative, being on the same schedule as your coworkers makes everything much easier.
“The biggest difference between working from home and working in the office is that you are in charge of your environment and have to treat yourself like an employee,” Yurovsky says. This means holding yourself accountable, but also recognizing when enough is enough, just as a good manager might. “If you feel yourself extending your work hours because you are not doing anything in the evening...tell yourself it’s time to put work away, recharge, and start tomorrow with a fresh mind. The work will be there in the morning.”
If you live with other people, this separation is even more critical. Communicate with the people whom you live with to establish boundaries so you can cut down on distractions during the workday—and then disconnect and give the people you care about your full attention. Having a separate time and space to work will allow you to be more present in your home life.
