For many people who live in cities, parks are an important part of the landscape.

For many people who live in cities, parks are an important part of the landscape. They provide a place for people to relax and play sports, as well as a refuge from the often harsh environment of a city. What people often overlook is that parks also provide considerable environmental benefits.

One benefit of parks is that plants absorb carbon dioxide - a key pollutant - and emit oxygen, which humans need to breathe. According to one study, an acre of trees can absorb the same amount of carbon dioxide that a typical car emits in 11,000 miles of driving. Parks also make cities cooler. Scientists have long noted what is called the Urban Heat Island Effect: building materials such as metal, concrete, and asphalt absorb much more of the sun’s heat and release it much more quickly than organic surfaces like trees and grass. Because city landscapes contain so much of these building materials, cities are usually warmer than surrounding rural areas. Parks and other green spaces help to mitigate the Urban Heat Island Effect.

Unfortunately, many cities cannot easily create more parks because most land is already being used for buildings, roads, parking lots, and other essential parts of the urban environment. However, cities could benefit from many of the positive effects of parks by encouraging citizens to create another type of green space: rooftop gardens. While most people would not think of starting a garden on their roof, human beings have been planting gardens on rooftops for thousands of years. Some rooftop gardens are very complex and require complicated engineering, but others are simple container gardens that anyone can create with the investment of a few hundred dollars and a few hours of work.

Rooftop gardens provide many of the same benefits as other urban park and garden spaces, but without taking up the much-needed land. Like parks, rooftop gardens help to replace carbon dioxide in the air with nourishing oxygen. They also help to lessen the Urban Heat Island Effect, which can save people money.

In the summer, rooftop gardens prevent buildings from absorbing heat from the sun, which can significantly reduce cooling bills. In the winter, gardens help hold in the heat that materials like brick and concrete radiate so quickly, leading to savings on heating bills. Rooftop vegetable and herb gardens can also provide fresh food for city dwellers, saving them money and making their diets healthier. Rooftop gardens are not only something everyone can enjoy, they are also a smart environmental investment.

Based on the information in paragraph 3, which of the following best describes the main difference between parks and rooftop gardens?

A. Parks are expensive to create while rooftop gardens are not

B. Parks are public while rooftop gardens are private

C. Parks absorb heat while rooftop gardens do not

D. Parks require much space while rooftop gardens do not

However, cities could benefit from many of the positive effects of parks by encouraging citizens to create another type of green space: rooftop gardens” – (Không may rằng, nhiều thành phố không thể dễ dàng xây dựng được thêm nhiều công viên bởi vì đất đai đã được dự trù cho việc thi công các tòa nhà, đường xá, chỗ để xe và những phần cần thiết khác cho môi trường đô thị. Tuy nhiên , các thành phố vẫn có thể hưởng lợi được từ nhiều ảnh hưởng tích cực của công viên bằng việc khuyến khích người dân kiến tạo nên những hình thái khác của không gian xanh đó là: khu vườn thượng) => công viên tiêu tốn diện tích đất đai thành phố trong khi vườn thượng thì không.

Thông tin: Rooftop gardens provide many of the same benefits as other urban park and garden spaces, but without taking up the much-needed land.

Dịch nghĩa: Khu vườn thượng cung cấp nhiều lợi ích như không gian công viên và vườn đô thị khác, nhưng mà không chiếm phần đất rất cần thiết.

Đó chính là lợi ích của vườn thượng hơn hẳn so với công viên. Phương án A. do not require the use of valuable urban land = không yêu cầu sử dụng đất đô thị quý giá, là phương án chính xác nhất.

B. decrease the Urban Heat Island Effect = giảm hiệu ứng đảo nhiệt đô thị.

“Parks and other green spaces help to mitigate the Urban Heat Island Effect … Like parks, rooftop gardens help to replace carbon dioxide in the air with nourishing oxygen. They also help to lessen the Urban Heat Island Effect” = Công viên và các không gian xanh khác sẽ giúp giảm thiểu hiệu ứng đảo nhiệt đô thị ... Giống như công viên, vườn trên mái nhà giúp thay thế carbon dioxide trong không khí bằng oxy bổ dưỡng. Chúng cũng giúp làm giảm bớt hiệu ứng đảo nhiệt đô thị.

Như vậy cả công viên và vườn thượng đều giúp giảm hiệu ứng đảo nhiệt đô thị.

C. replenish the air with nourishing oxygen = bổ sung lượng khí oxy bổ dưỡng

“One benefit of parks is that plants absorb carbon dioxide—a key pollutant—and emit oxygen, which humans need to breathe … Like parks, rooftop gardens help to replace carbon dioxide in the air with nourishing oxygen” = Một lợi ích của công viên là thực vật hấp thụ chất ô nhiễm và khí cacbonic, một chất ô nhiễm quan trọng, và phát ra oxy, mà con người cần phải thở ... Giống như công viên, vườn trên mái nhà giúp thay thế carbon dioxide trong không khí bằng oxy bổ dưỡng.

Như vậy cả công viên và vườn thượng đều bổ sung lượng khí oxy bổ dưỡng.

D. are less expensive than traditional park spaces = ít tốn kém hơn so với các không gian công viên truyền thống.

Đoạn 2 nói về hiện tượng các vật liệu xây dựng ở thành phố làm không khí nóng hơn lên do hấp thụ nhiều nhiệt lượng và giải phóng chúng nhanh, còn cây cối có thể hấp thụ khí cacbonic và thải ra khí oxy nên có thể làm dịu bớt, làm giảm tác động này.

Phương án A. allay, alleviate, reduce = xoa dịu, làm giảm bớt, giảm là phương án có các từ đồng nghĩa với từ “mitigate”

B. absorb, intake, consume = hấp thụ, tiêu thụ, tiêu thụ

C. exacerbate, aggravate, intensify = làm trầm trọng thêm, làm nặng thêm, tăng cường

D. obliterate, destroy, annihilate = tiêu diệt, phá hủy, tiêu diệt

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.

For many people who live in cities, parks are an important part of the landscape. They provide a place for people to relax and play sports, as well as a refuge from the often harsh environment of a city. What people often overlook is that parks also provide considerable environmental benefits.

One benefit of parks is that plants absorb carbon dioxide - a key pollutant - and emit oxygen, which humans need to breathe. According to one study, an acre of trees can absorb the same amount of carbon dioxide that a typical car emits in 11,000 miles of driving. Parks also make cities cooler. Scientists have long noted what is called the Urban Heat Island Effect: building materials such as metal, concrete, and asphalt absorb much more of the sun’s heat and release it much more quickly than organic surfaces like trees and grass. Because city landscapes contain so much of these building materials, cities are usually warmer than surrounding rural areas. Parks and other green spaces help to mitigate the Urban Heat Island Effect.

Unfortunately, many cities cannot easily create more parks because most land is already being used for buildings, roads, parking lots, and other essential parts of the urban environment. However, cities could benefit from many of the positive effects of parks by encouraging citizens to create another type of green space: rooftop gardens. While most people would not think of starting a garden on their roof, human beings have been planting gardens on rooftops for thousands of years. Some rooftop gardens are very complex and require complicated engineering, but others are simple container gardens that anyone can create with the investment of a few hundred dollars and a few hours of work.

Rooftop gardens provide many of the same benefits as other urban park and garden spaces, but without taking up the much-needed land. Like parks, rooftop gardens help to replace carbon dioxide in the air with nourishing oxygen. They also help to lessen the Urban Heat Island Effect, which can save people money.

In the summer, rooftop gardens prevent buildings from absorbing heat from the sun, which can significantly reduce cooling bills. In the winter, gardens help hold in the heat that materials like brick and concrete radiate so quickly, leading to savings on heating bills. Rooftop vegetable and herb gardens can also provide fresh food for city dwellers, saving them money and making their diets healthier. Rooftop gardens are not only something everyone can enjoy, they are also a smart environmental investment.

Based on its use in paragraph 2, it can be inferred that mitigate belongs to which of the following word groups?

A. exacerbate, aggravate, intensify

B. obliterate, destroy, annihilate

C. allay, alleviate, reduce

D. absorb, intake, consume

Đáp án C

Dựa vào ngữ cảnh được sử dụng trong đoạn 2, có thể suy ra rằng từ mitigate thuộc nhóm từ nào sau đây?

A. làm trầm trọng, làm nặng thêm, làm dữ dội.

B. làm tiêu tan, phá hủy, hủy diệt.

C. làm lắng xuống, làm nhẹ dịu, làm giảm.

D. hấp thu, lấy vào, tiêu thụ.

(to) mitigate: giảm nhẹ, làm dịu bớt => Thuộc nhóm từ C.

Tạm dịch: “Because city landscapes contain so much of these building materials, cities are usually warmer than surrounding rural areas. Parks and other green spaces help to mitigate the Urban Heat Island Effect” – (Bởi vì cảnh quan thành phố chứa quá nhiều vật liệu xây dựng, nên các thành phố thường ấm hơn so với những khu vực nông thôn xung quanh. Công viên và những không gian xanh khác sẽ giúp làm giảm bớt tác động của Hiệu ứng nhiệt đô thị).
