READING

1. Read the text about lifelong learning. (Đọc văn bản về học tập suốt đời)

Lifelong learning: Why?

The astonishing speed of technlogical development makes it necessary for individuals to learn new skills and keep improving them throughout their lives.

The term lifelong learning (LLL) refers to the continuous accumulation of an individual's knowledge and skills. Apart from the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and behaviours people acquire in their everyday lives, LLL consists of three forms: formal, non-formal, and informal learning. Formal learning is learning that happens in formal and organised settings like schools and universities, and very often leads to certificates or degrees. While non-formal learning is considered learning gained in planned activities like vocational skills training, informal learning is learning acquired from daily life activities.

LLL offers a great number of benefits to individuals, communities, and the country. First of all, it brings individuals knowledge, enhances their existing skills, stimulates learning experiences, and builds up systems of values, necessary for them as social human beings. Secondly, knowledgeable individuals make communities more productive and creative with their up-to-date skills, abilities, and ideas. Today's fast-changing knowledge economy requires workers who are well- prepared for new challenges by constant learning. Thirdly, LLL helps the country to prosper. An able, skilful, and knowledgeable person can enormously contribute to his/ her country's development and prosperity, which in turn contributes to the happiness and well-being of its citizens. Obviously, LLL is so important that all individuals should learn throughout their lives.

Audio script

Well, as I said earlier, the world around us is changing at an amazing speed. If we do not keep our knowledge and skills sharp and up-to-date, we will soon be left behind.

Firstly, lifelong learning, or LLL, sharpens our mind and improves our memory. Generally, learning has positive effects on human brain. Research reveals that people with more education are less likely to suffer from memory loss in old age. Secondly, LLL makes people more confident in their ability to leam, to work, and to share information with others.

In addition, lifelong learners have better interpersonal skills. When learning, we often engage with life and people, which, in turn, enhances our relationships and sharpens our skills. Learning forces us to continuously listen, read, write, and speak. While we build up and enhance these skills, we also improve our ability to communicate with colleagues, customers, and other people.

Furthermore, LLLcanalsoimproveourcareeropportunities. Not only can we enhance the skills we already have, but we can also take advantage of opportunities to learn new skills or maximise our chances of career growth.

In summary, in the 21^st century we all need to be lifelong learners if we want to succeed in life.
