(5 points) The increase in urbanization causes different problems. Air and water pollution are among the major issues we have to tackle. In the first place, cars, factories and burning waste emit dangerous gases that change the air quality in our cities and pose threats to our health. Dangerous gases such as carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides cause respiratory diseases, for instance, bronchitis and asthma. Those are also proved to have long-term effects on the environment. Furthermore, with the increased population, it becomes difficult to manage the waste generated in cities. Most of the waste is discharged or dumped into rivers or onto streets. The waste pollutes water and makes it unfit for human consumption. Subsequently, it becomes more and more difficult for city dwellers to get clean water. Some cities in Africa are unable to provide adequate water supply because most of the water is lost in pipe leakages. In fact, most city dwellers in developing countries are forced to boil their water or to buy bottled water, which is very expensive. There are several actions that could be taken to eradicate the problems described above. Firstly, a simple solution would be joining community efforts to address problems affecting your city. Ask your parents, friends and relatives to join in as well. These efforts might include clean-up campaigns, recycling projects and a signature campaign to ask the government to do something about the situation. A second measure would be encouraging your teacher to talk about these problems and to discuss how young people can help to solve them. Finally, writing to local organizations working on these issues for ideas on how you can contribute to solve them should be encouraged. 1. The word “tackle” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______. A. deal with B. make up C. try on D. turn down Trang 5/7 2. The word “those” in paragraph 2 refers to ______. A. bronchitis and asthma B. threats C. dangerous gases D. respiratory diseases 3. According to the passage, in some cities in Africa ______. A. people are allowed to dump waste into rivers and on streets B. people aren't provided enough water due to leaking pipes C. people have found some solutions to the problems D. people would rather use boiling water and bottled water 4. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. City problems should be taught and be topic for students to discuss at school. B. Children must ask for their parent's permission before joining community efforts. C. Participants might take part in different kinds of projects and campaigns. D. People can contribute to solving the problems by writing to local organizations working on these issues. 5. Which of the following would serve as the best title for the passage? A.
