Read the passage. Circle the best answer A, B, C or D to each of the questions.

Everyday on radio, on TV, and in the newspaper, we hear, see or read about many problems in the world, for example, pollution problems.

Air pollution is the first kind. It mostly comes from fumes released from motorbikes, cars, airplanes, trains and poisonous gases emitted from factories. Also, waste is dumped anywhere, even in the city where many people are living. The second pollution problem is sea pollution. Many people earn their living from fishing in the sea, and the fish they catch feed many people. But the sea has become so polluted from oil spills and factory wastes that the fish are dying. This is not only killing the fish, but is also affecting those people who eat fish.

Seldom do you find a place nowadays that is not polluted. This problem is growing more difficult everyday. We must find a good solution that makes the world a better place to live.

Tạm dịch:

Hàng ngày trên đài phát thanh, truyền hình và báo chí, chúng ta nghe, thấy hoặc đọc về nhiều vấn đề trên thế giới, ví dụ như vấn đề ô nhiễm.

Ô nhiễm không khí là loại đầu tiên. Nó chủ yếu đến từ khói thải ra từ xe máy, ô tô, máy bay, tàu hỏa và khí độc thải ra từ các nhà máy. Ngoài ra, rác thải còn được đổ khắp nơi, ngay cả ở thành phố nơi có nhiều người dân sinh sống. Vấn đề ô nhiễm thứ hai là ô nhiễm biển. Nhiều người kiếm sống bằng nghề đánh cá trên biển và cá họ đánh bắt được có thể nuôi sống nhiều người. Nhưng biển đã trở nên ô nhiễm do sự cố tràn dầu và chất thải nhà máy đến nỗi cá đang chết dần. Điều này không chỉ làm chết cá mà còn ảnh hưởng đến những người ăn cá.

Ngày nay hiếm khi tìm được một nơi nào không bị ô nhiễm. Vấn đề này ngày càng trở nên khó khăn hơn. Chúng ta phải tìm ra một giải pháp tốt để biến thế giới thành một nơi tốt đẹp hơn để sinh sống.
