Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the question.
The world needs to do more to prepare for the impact of a rapidly ageing population, the UN has warned - particularly in developing countries. Within 10 years the number of people aged over 60 will pass one billion, a report by the UN Population Fund said. The demographic shift will present huge challenges to countries' welfare, pension and healthcare systems. The UN agency also said more had to be done to tackle "abuse, neglect and violence against older persons".
The number of older people worldwide is growing faster than any other age group. The report, Ageing in the 21st Century: A Celebration and a Challenge, estimates that one in nine people around the world are older than 60. The elderly population is expected to swell by 200 million in the next decade to surpass one billion, and reach two billion by 2050. This rising proportion of older people is a consequence of success - improved nutrition, sanitation, healthcare, education and economic well-being are contributing factors, the report says.
But the UN and a charity that also contributed to the report, Help Age International, say the ageing population is being widely mismanaged. "In many developing countries with large populations of young people, the challenge is that governments have not put policies and practices in place to support their current older populations or made enough preparations for 2050," the agencies said in a joint statement.

Đáp án A
Câu nào trong các câu sau có thể là chủ đề chính của đoạn văn?
A. Sự ảnh hưởng của sự gia tăng dân số già.
B. Sự tăng lên nhanh chóng của số người già.
C. Các đất nước có tỉ lệ người già cao.
D. Các thách thức gây ra bởi sự già hóa dân số.
Căn cứ vào thông tin đoạn 1:
The world needs to do more to prepare for the impact of a rapidly ageing population, the UN has warned - particularly in developing countries. (Liên hiệp quốc đã cảnh báo thế giới cần làm nhiều hơn để chuẩn bị cho những tác động của sự già hóa dân số nhanh chóng, đặc biệt ở các nước đang phát triển).
=> Cùng với các thông tin còn lại trong bài, ta thấy đoạn văn đang bàn đến những ảnh hưởng của sự gia tăng dân số già.
*Note: Đáp án D chưa chính khác khi nó chưa thể hiện được ý "gia tăng" của lượng dân số già. Vì trong đoạn văn đã chứng tỏ điều này bằng các số liệu thống kê cụ thể - cho thấy sự gia tăng nhanh chóng của nó cũng là một vấn đề đáng lo ngại chứ không đơn thuần là sự tồn tại của già hóa dân số. Dù có thể xem "những thách thức bị gây ra bởi sự già hóa dân số" cũng có ý đúng khi làm tiêu đề đoạn văn, nhưng nó chưa đủ.
