Rising sea levels are threatening parts of the Egyptian coastal city of Alexandria. Alexander the Great established the city more than 2,000 years ago. In that time, it has survived invasions, fires and earthquakes. But, Alexandria now faces severe flooding from rising waters blamed on climate change.

Alexandria is Egypt’s second largest city, with more than 5 million people. It is also an important port and home to about 40 percent of Egypt’s industrial activity. The city is surrounded on three sides by the Mediterranean Sea and sits next to a lake.

Officials have built concrete barriers in the sea in an effort to reduce the force of waves. A severe storm in 2015 flooded large parts of the city. At least six people were killed in the flooding, which also caused the collapse of many homes.

The United Nations has warned that worldwide sea levels could rise by 0.98 meters by 2100, with “serious implications for coastal cities, deltas and low-lying states.”

Mực nước biển dâng cao đang đe dọa một phần của thành phố ven biển

Alexandria của Ai Cập. Alexander Đại đế đã thành lập thành phố hơn 2.000 năm trước. Trong thời gian đó, nó đã sống sót sau các cuộc xâm lược, hỏa hoạn và động đất. Nhưng, Alexandria bây giờ phải đối mặt với lũ lụt nghiêm trọng từ vùng nước dâng cao đổ lỗi cho biến đổi khí hậu.Alexandria là thành phố lớn thứ hai của Ai Cập, với hơn 5 triệu người. Đây cũng là một cảng quan trọng và là ngôi nhà của khoảng 40% hoạt động công nghiệp của Ai Cập. Thành phố được bao quanh ba phía bởi biển Địa Trung Hải và nằm cạnh một hồ nước.

Các quan chức đã xây dựng các hàng rào bê tông trên biển trong nỗ lực giảm lực của sóng. Một cơn bão nghiêm trọng vào năm 2015 đã làm ngập lụt một phần lớn của thành phố. Ít nhất sáu người đã thiệt mạng trong trận lụt, điều này cũng gây ra sự sụp đổ của nhiều ngôi nhà.

Liên Hợp Quốc đã cảnh báo rằng mực nước biển trên toàn thế giới có thể tăng 0,98 mét vào năm 2100, với những hệ lụy nghiêm trọng đối với các thành phố ven biển, đồng bằng châu thổ và các quốc gia trũng thấp.

Read the following passage and blacken the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

        Sharks have gained an unfair reputation for being fierce predators of large sea animals. Humanity's unfounded fear and hatred of these ancient creatures is leading to a worldwide slaughter that may result in the extinction of many coastal shark species. The shark is the victim of a warped attitude of wildlife protection; we strive only to protect the beautiful, non-threatening parts of our environment. And, in our efforts to restore only non-threatening parts of our earth, we ignore other important parts.

        A perfect illustration of this attitude is the contrasting attitude toward another large sea animal, the dolphin. During the 1980s, environmentalists in the United States protested the use of driftnets for tuna fishing in the Pacific Ocean since these nets also caught dolphins. The environmentalists generated enough political and economic pressure to prevent tuna companies from buying tuna that had been caught in driftnets. In contrast to this effort on behalf of the dolphins, these same environmentalists have done very little to help save the Pacific Ocean sharks whose population has decreased nearly to the point of extinction.

Sharks are among the oldest creatures on earth, having survived in the seas for more than 350 million years. They are extremely efficient animals, feeding on wounded or dying animals, thus performing an important role in nature of weeding out the weaker animals in a species. Just the fact that species such as the Great White Shark have managed to live in the oceans for so many millions of years is enough proof of their efficiency and adaptability to changing environments. It is time for US humans, who may not survive another 1,000 years at the rate we are damaging the planet, to cast away our fears and begin considering the protection of sharks as an important part of a program for protection of all our natural environment.

How did environmentalists manage to protect dolphins?

A. They prevented fishermen from selling them for meat.

B. They pressured fishermen into protecting dolphins by law.

C. They brought political pressure against tuna companies.

D. They created sanctuaries where dolphin fishing was not allowed.
