Câu hỏi: 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 following questions.
The roles of higher education in sustainable economic and social development increase year by year, and this will continue over the next decades. Higher education can be seen as a focal point of knowledge and its application, an institution which makes a great contribution to the economic growth and development through fostering innovation and increasing higher skills. It is looked as a way to improve the quality of life and address major social and global challenges. Higher education is broadly defined as one of key drivers of growth performance, prosperity and competitiveness.
Business has changed over the last decade. There are a lot of jobs today that failed to exist several decades ago. The 2017 McKinsey report estimated that 49 percent of time spent on recurrent work activities worldwide could be automated using existing technologies. The requirements on employee's skills have also changed. Modern universities provide their students with various programmes aimed at preparing them for different economic sectors, helping them to stay and progress in the labour market for long, programmes that make a difference for labour market outcomes and keep pace with changes in the global economy and changes in the innovation process. Universities promote lifelong learning; they offer opportunities to engage and attract professionals into training and professional development. Investing in knowledge creation and enabling its diffusion is the key to creating high-wage employment and enhancing productivity growth.
One of the missions of the modern universities is finding solutions to big challenges and conducting research within global priority areas, contributing to social outcomes such as health and social engagement. Often it is aimed at designing technologies that result in new products and supplying advanced technology for use. Knowledge is the true basis of higher education: its production via research, its transmission via teaching, its acquisition and use by students. Hence, excellence must remain the prime objective of any institution of higher education, including universities in any country. Countries are putting knowledge at the service of their societies to create a better world. This can be achieved through the training of first-class minds, through major advances in science and technology and by encouraging an interest in learning.
Now, to realize its full potential, higher education is to maintain a pro-active stance, strengthen its position as a bedrock upon which countries are and build a new road to growth.
The word "they" in paragraph 2 refers to _______.
A. opportunities
B. universities
C. professionals
D. changes
