 Air pollution is a serious problem in many cities. Motor vehicles, factories and other sources create
so much air pollution that it may hang in the air like dirty fog. Air pollution threatens the health of the
people who live in cities. City wastes cause water pollution when they are poured into the waterways.
These wastes kill fish and make some areas unfit for swimming. In addition, many large cities have
difficulties in disposing of their garbage. The amount of garbage grows each year, but places to put it are
quickly filling up. Citizens, governments, industries, scientists, and business people must work together
in different ways to gradually reduce pollution. For example, most cities have introduced recycling
programmes.

V. Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
Saving the Environment: One Home at a Time
Pollution can be seen not only throughout the world, but also in our own homes. It comes from
household chemicals, the amount of water people use and the waste people produce and throw away.
What can be done to stop this pollution? Surprisingly, a person can help save the environment by doing
simple things.
First, we need to recycle, which allows products to be used over and over again. Recycling can also
reduce the number of trees cut down to produce paper products. It takes very little effort. It is not hard to
place plastic and glass bottles, aluminum cans and paper in a bin. Anyone can do it.
Second, we need to watch the amount of water used at home. It can be conserved by taking short
showers instead of baths, repairing leaky faucets, using the dishwasher or washing machine only when
fully loaded, or simply turning the faucet off while brushing your teeth.
Third, we need to reduce waste. We need to recycle whenever possible, but should also try to use this
waste effectively. For example, grass clippings and food scraps can be made into compost for plants. The
average person produces 4.3 pounds of waste every day, but we can reduce that amount by recycling and
reusing.
If we do our part in our own homes, we can help keep the planet from becoming more polluted.
31. Pollution is caused from the following sources EXCEPT .
A. water in rivers B. water from households C. wastes D. house chemicals
32. Recycling can help us .
A. never cut down trees B. produce more paper products

33. In order to save water, we can do all of the following things EXCEPT .
A. fully use the washing machine B. repair leaky faucets
C. take short showers instead of baths D. turn the faucet off while brushing your teeth
34. Recycling helps to reduce waste because .
A. plants need to develop B. waste can be recycled and reused
C. a person can do it in his home D. an average man produces compost for plants
35. The word “It” in paragraph 2 refers to .
A. cutting down B. the number C. recycling D. effort
VI. Rewrite the following sentence so that it has a similar meaning to the first.
36. Tea is cheaper than coffee.
Coffee _____________________________________________________________________.
37. I adore listening to music every day.
