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
The increase in urbanization causes different problems. Air and water pollution are amongst the
major issue 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 instant, 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
Trang 3/5 - Mã đề 384
- 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.

B. City problems should be taught and be topic for students to discuss at school.
C. Participators might take part in different kinds of projects and campaigns.
D. People can contribute in solving the problems by writing to local organizations working on
these issues.

Online social media have gained amazing worldwide growth and popularity. Although with time all
generations have come to accept the changes social networking including Twitter, Facebook or Instagram
has brought about, teenagers and young adults are the most frequent users of these sites. It has been reported
that these sites are affecting the lives of the youth greatly.
Social media sites have provided a platform whereby the youth can create groups and pages based on
their common discipline and end up building connections and opportunities for their respective careers by
updating various topics to discuss. Youth who have been interviewed say that social media has become their
lifestyle and it makes their lives easier and efficient.

various studies, scientists' evaluation determined that social isolation can lead to a host of emotional,
psychological, physical and mental problems which include anxiety, depression and somatic complaints
among many others.
