Read about traffic problems in two cities. Match the city with its problem.
|
A. Ho Chi Minh City |
In Ho Chi Minh City, it is not strange to see the sight of a street that is crowded with vehicles. People cannot move and their health is affected by polluted air from exhausted fumes. What are the reasons? The citizens in the city use many personal vehicles to go from one place to another. They aren't used to transporting by public transports. May be because the bus drivers are careless, impolite to them or the taxi fare is too high for some people.
Bangkok is world renowned for its terrible traffic problems, so getting around on the roads is a bit of a nightmare. In my opinion, there are 3 main causes of Bangkok traffic jams. First, the quality of public transportation is low. Bus is of low quality and causes congestion. Second, the BTS and MRT are not enough for users. Finally, the most important cause of traffic jam is car accidents. Bad bus drivers cause accidents frequently and make the road stuck for hours.
PROBLEMS
1. It has low quality public transport: B. Bangkok.
2. It costs a lot to go by taxi: A. Ho Chi Minh City.
3. There are not enough MRTs for its inhabitants: B. Bangkok.
4. Its citizens use a lot of personal vehicles: A. Ho Chi Minh City.
5. There is a high frequency of accidents: B. Bangkok.

IX. Read the passage and then decide if the following statements are True or False or Not Given.
It took hundreds of thousands of years for the world population to grow to 1 billion. However, in just another two centuries, it grew sevenfold. You know, in 2011, the total populaion of the world reached 7 billion. And today, it' s about 7.5 billion. Tokyo, with 37.8 million residents, continues to be the largest city in the world in terms of population.
Advances in modern medicine are the main cause of this dramatic growth in the world population. It helps the birth rates increase and the death rates decline. The second contributor is the improvrment in living standards. This leads to the rise of global lifespan, from 64.8 years in the early 1990s to 70.0 years today. Last but not least, the number of women of reproductive age is increasing day by day.
However, the rapid population growth can lead to the shortage in medical and educational facilities and services. The population grows fast so the demand for energy also increases. Therefore, energy shortages are also a big problem. In addition, air, water and land pollution caused by growing population in big cities has bad effects on people' s health.
