Read about traffic problems in two cities. Match the city with its problem.
A. Ho Chi Minh City |
In Ho Chi Minh City, it is not strange to see the sight of a street that is crowded with vehicles. People cannot move and their health is affected by polluted air from exhausted fumes. What are the reasons? The citizens in the city use many personal vehicles to go from one place to another. They aren't used to transporting by public transports. May be because the bus drivers are careless, impolite to them or the taxi fare is too high for some people.
Bangkok is world renowned for its terrible traffic problems, so getting around on the roads is a bit of a nightmare. In my opinion, there are 3 main causes of Bangkok traffic jams. First, the quality of public transportation is low. Bus is of low quality and causes congestion. Second, the BTS and MRT are not enough for users. Finally, the most important cause of traffic jam is car accidents. Bad bus drivers cause accidents frequently and make the road stuck for hours.

2. It costs a lot to go by taxi: A. Ho Chi Minh City.
3. There are not enough MRTs for its inhabitants: B. Bangkok.

Sông Amazon bắt đầu từ núi Andes ở Peru. Nó di chuyển khoảng 6,000 km đến Đại Tây Dương. Nó là con sông lớn nhất trên thế giới. Nó cũng dài thứ hai. Phần lớn nước của Amazon đến từ mưa. Trong mùa mưa, các phần của sông rộng 190 km.
Sông Amazon đi qua khu rừng mưa lớn nhất thế giới. Rừng mưa Amazon là nơi có số lượng loài động thực vật cao nhất trên Trái Đất. Có khoảng 2,5 triệu loại côn trùng, chẳng hạn như loài kiến lớn nhất thế giới. Có ít nhất 3,000 loại cá sống ở đó, và 1/5 tổng số loài chim trên thế giới.
Một số loài động vật ở Amazon rất nguy hiểm, chẳng hạn như anaconda, loài rắn lớn nhất trên thế giới.
Amazon rất quan trọng đối với Trái Đất. Nếu chúng ra mất Amazon, chúng ta sẽ mất một phần lớn sự sống trên Trái Đất.
IX. Read the passage and then decide if the following statements are True or False or Not Given.
It took hundreds of thousands of years for the world population to grow to 1 billion. However, in just another two centuries, it grew sevenfold. You know, in 2011, the total populaion of the world reached 7 billion. And today, it' s about 7.5 billion. Tokyo, with 37.8 million residents, continues to be the largest city in the world in terms of population.
Advances in modern medicine are the main cause of this dramatic growth in the world population. It helps the birth rates increase and the death rates decline. The second contributor is the improvrment in living standards. This leads to the rise of global lifespan, from 64.8 years in the early 1990s to 70.0 years today. Last but not least, the number of women of reproductive age is increasing day by day.
However, the rapid population growth can lead to the shortage in medical and educational facilities and services. The population grows fast so the demand for energy also increases. Therefore, energy shortages are also a big problem. In addition, air, water and land pollution caused by growing population in big cities has bad effects on people' s health.
1. The population of the world increased seven times just in two centuries.
A. True B. False C. Not Given
2. the birth rates are higher than the death rates.
