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 following questions.
As cities continue to grow rapidly, green spaces such as parks, gardens, and tree-lined streets are becoming more important than ever before. Urban green spaces are no longer considered a luxury or something extra - they have become a true necessity for creating healthy and livable cities. These areas offer much more than just aesthetic beauty; they also play a key role in improving city life thanks to the many advantages they bring to the environment and to people’s well-being.
One of the most important benefits of urban green spaces is their ability to reduce air pollution. Trees and plants absorb carbon dioxide and other harmful gases from the atmosphere, helping to clean the air we breathe. Additionally, these green areas help lower city temperatures by providing shade and releasing moisture into the air. Studies have shown that neighborhoods with many trees can be several degrees cooler than those with few or no trees, which is especially important during hot summer months.
Beyond environmental advantages, green spaces also support physical and mental health. Spending time in nature often helps people feel more relaxed, reduces stress, and increases energy levels. Green areas provide places for exercise, family outings, and social activities, all of which contribute to a higher quality of life for city residents.
Urban green spaces provide essential benefits by improving air quality, reducing temperatures, and promoting the well-being of residents. Therefore, it is crucial that cities protect and expand these areas to create healthier, more enjoyable, and more sustainable living environments for everyone.
