Few people have packed more into a day trip than Michael and Lillian Long from Kent who took the ferry from
their home in England to Boulogne in France in 1987. On Easter Sunday this adventurous couple went for a short
walk around the town. In no time they were spectacularly lost and showing all the qualities of born explorers.
“We walked and walked,” Mrs. Long recalled, “and the further we walked to try to get back, the further we
walked away from Boulogne”. Unable to speak French, they felt embarrassed about asking the way, so they walked
throughout the night until a driver gave them a lift to a small village they did not recognize. Here they caught a train
to the wrong destination – Paris, where they spent all their remaining money on catching what they thought was the
express train back to Boulogne. After an enjoyable trip they arrived in Luxembourg on Monday.
Two hours later police put them on the train back to Paris, but it divided, and their half ended up in Basel, an
old town in Switzerland. Having no money, they tried to find work here, but without success. The railway company
offered them a free ticket to Belfort, thinking that this was where they had come from. Once they got off the train,
our heroes hiked forty-two miles to Vesoul, hitched a lift to Paris and then nearly boarded the train to Bonn in
Germany. Diverted just in time to the right platform, they finally reached Boulogne a week after they had set out on their
walk. They had covered a distance of almost 1,700 km without luggage, maps or any idea of where they were.

Many people see large urban cities as a wonder of human imagination and creativity. They represent how
far the human population has come in terms of community development. Many positive things come from
urbanization, but there are also negatives. This article will discuss and present data on the implications of
urbanization on the physical health of humans living in these large urban areas.
Trang 4/4- Mã đề 401
As it would be expected, developing countries tend to see more negative physical health effects than modern
countries regarding urbanization. One example of a developing country experiencing these problems is China.
China is a country that in the past 30–40 years went from being an agrarian-based society to a significant
industrialized country. In most recent decades, since China’s change to being more of an industrial based economy,
the country has experienced record high numbers of people migrating within its borders. In effect, the number of
cities with over 500,000 people has more than doubled. These migrations are typically of people from rural areas
of China moving to the new urban areas. Due to this large influx in the urban population, there are many possibilities
for health challenges among these people.
One very common and fairly obvious negative aspect of highly congested urban areas is air pollution. This
could include particulate matter, most commonly attributed to industrial plants and refineries waste, or chemicals
like CO2 or Methane. Due to the vast number of people in these urbanized cities, air pollution is known to be very
extreme. These conditions can lead to many different health problems such as: Asthma, cardiovascular problems
or disease, and different types of cancer. When exposed to these conditions for a prolonged period of time, one can
experience even more detrimental health effects like: the acceleration of aging, loss of lung capacity, being more
susceptible to respiratory diseases, and a shortened life span.
Another way that urbanization affects the populations’ health is people’s change in diet. For instance, urban
cities tend to have lots of accessible, quick, and easy ways to get food. This food contains a large amount of sodium
and sugar. Because this food is so accessible, people tend to eat it more. This increase in consumption of low-quality
food can then lead to diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, obesity, or any other health conditions.
Question 40. Which of the following could be served as the best title for the passage?
A. Urbanization – Negative Impacts on People’s Health
B. Urban cities - Opportunities for Community Development
C. Urbanization - Pros and Cons
D. China – a Developing Country

Question 43. The following are the air pollution sources mentioned in paragraph 3, EXCEPT ______.
A. chemicals B. industrial factories
C. sewage D. refineries waste
Question 44. The word extreme in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______.
A. moderate B. positive C. common D. severe
Question 45. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?
A. The population of cities in China now more than doubles that in the past.
B. Urban populations can get diseases from consuming low-quality food.
C. People’s change in diet is an effect of urbanization on the populations’ health.
D. Many of the new urban areas’ populations in China are migrants from the countryside.
Question 46. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The bad health effects from urbanization are not greater than the benefits it brings to people in urban cities.
B. All of the negative health effects come from the overpopulation in industrialized countries.
C. People in developed countries suffer less harmful health effects from urbanization than those in developing nations.
