V. READING COMPREHENSION (1.5 points)

Read the following passage and do the tasks below.

Living museums, unlike conventional galleries where artifacts are enclosed in glass cases, offer visitors an immersive glimpse into past eras. One prime example is the Beamish Open Air Museum in northern England, which recreates daily life during the early 19th and 20th centuries. Spanning over three hundred acres, the site features working tramways, traditional bakeries, blacksmith forges, and fully furnished Victorian cottages.

Costumed interpreters, who play the roles of historical townsfolk, bring the entire setting to life. While tourists are wandering along the cobbled streets, they can smell coal smoke from old locomotives, taste freshly baked coal-oven breads, and witness craftsmen forging wrought iron by hand. Children are often fascinated by classroom lessons conducted in accordance with strict 19th-century disciplinary standards, where slate tablets replace modern touchscreens.

Supporters argue that experiential living museums foster deeper emotional bonds with collective memory than dry textbook descriptions. They allow younger generations to comprehend the arduous hardships and resilience of their forebears. Nevertheless, curators face recurring debates regarding historical authenticity versus commercial entertainment. Striking a delicate balance between educational integrity and engaging spectacle remains essential to sustaining such living memorials for years to come.

Decide whether the following statements are True (T) or False (F).

Câu 21 (0,25 điểm). Artifacts in living museums are typically displayed behind protective glass showcases.
Câu 22 (0,25 điểm). Visitors at Beamish can observe manual metalworking and taste traditional culinary products.
Câu 23 (0,25 điểm). Victorian-style school simulations in the museum allow students to experience modern digital gadgets.
Câu 24 (0,25 điểm). Museum curators must constantly reconcile the desire to educate visitors with the demand for entertainment.

Choose the best answer (A, B, C or D) for each question.
