READING
TASK 1. Read the passage. Circle the best answer A, B, or C to each of the
questions.
There are many reasons for reducing the forest areas, and this causes many
complicated problems for any nation without any exception. Due to the population
explosion, many governments need more land for residents to live and develop the
economy. They also clear forests to build dams for generating electricity or to develop
resorts and recreational complexes. Besides, a huge number of trees are logged
illegally to trade wood. All of these lead to serious issues as forests always have an
important role in the ecosystem balance. It is undoubted that when a forest area is
destroyed, the following results affect the other neighbor regions. The first negative
effect of the loss of forest lands is flooding. Forests help to prevent erosion and
flooding and without them, the downstream areas tend to be inundated frequently in
rainy and hurricane seasons. Another problem is global warming.
Forests are often considered as the lungs of the earth because they absorb the carbon
dioxide and release the oxygen. This helps to refresh the atmosphere and lower the rate
of the carbon dioxide in the air. If not, the average temperature will be higher and
higher since the emission of the gas into the atmosphere increases every day.
Page 3
Consequently, the price we would pay for the flooding or for the increase of
greenhouse gases is not only the damaged and polluted environment but also our
deteriorated health and lives. To save ourselves, it is advisable to join hands in
protecting and growing more and more forests.

B. Why floods happen frequently
C. Human’s responsibility for protecting forests
D. The rate of carbon dioxide has been rising

A. The fact that forests are considered the lungs of the Earth
B. The release of the oxygen
C. The circulation of exchanging carbon dioxide and oxygen of trees
D. The absorption of carbon dioxide from forests
3. According to the reading, which of the following is NOT the reason for
cutting down trees?
A. Lack of shelters for local people
B. Developing the local or national production and trade
C. Illegal logging
D. Lack of land for agriculture
4. What is one of the negative impacts of clearing forests?
A. The increase of heat
B. Severe environmental disasters
C. Poor economic development
D. The loss of animals’ habitats
Page 4

Travel agent (T.A): Hello, it’s Green Leaves travel agency. How can I help you?
An: Oh, hello. My name’s An. I call to ask for some information about your tours. I’m
having some days off and I’m planning for my family holiday this summer. Can you
give me some recommendations?
T.A: Yes, of course! Would you like domestic tours or international ones?
An: Domestic tours please!
T.A: Great choice! This summer our travel agency is launching a bunch of promotions
to customers, particularly for the new ones. If you buy a package of ecotours, you will
get a discount voucher of 25% for the next tour. The program will close soon so don’t
miss the opportunity.
An: It sounds interesting, but sorry, I don’t know much about what an ecotour is and
where these trips are to?
T.A: Well, ecotourism is more and more popular towards the enthusiastic travelers
these days. It’s very environmentally friendly tourism. You can discover the natural
landscapes and find out many things about the tourist attractions without hurting the
environment. At the present, we have the tour to Ba Be Lake and one of the most
beautiful volcanoes in ASEAN Countries – “Chư B’Luck” volcanic mountain. We
also have tours to Hoi An ancient town, but unfortunately, it just ended its promotion
last week. Both trips take 3 nights and 2 days for each.

Hello everyone, welcome to the Evening news podcast today. We start with the news
of the wildlife environment. There is a threat to the red-shanked doucs. According to
experts, the primate is native to Indochinese countries, but these days we can only
observe them in Son Tra peninsula located in the Center of Viet Nam. This kind of rare
wild animal is listed among the most endangered animals over the world. Recently, it
faces the loss of its natural habitat because of local people's behaviors like cutting
down trees to build houses and farms. Dangerously, a few doucs were found dead in
the edge of the forest last week, which puts their survival at the very alarming
Page 8
situation. There are some conservation efforts from the volunteer groups dedicated to
preventing the animals from harmfulness and raising people’s awareness of protecting
the vulnerable wild animals. Nevertheless, the local authority also needs to
immediately carry out more actions to secure the long-term survival of the wild
mammals in the peninsula as well.

fauna system, especially a crucial habitat for distinct migratory shorebirds.
Tourists can explore the mangrove forest by walking along the curving roads covered
with green canopies or sitting on a small boat floating on the canals throughout the
forest. If you are animal lovers, Monkey Island and Crocodile in Vam Sat Forest are
really must-visit destinations. Don’t forget to try local specialities there, including
grilled oysters, steamed shrimp or seafood noodles.

READING
TASK 1. Read the passage. Circle the best answer A, B, or C to each of the
questions.
Global warming is said to be a culprit of many destructive natural damages. Many
research shows that glaciers in Antarctica and Greenland are melting quickly, which
has a detrimental influence on ocean currents. Cold lands are habitats of various polar
mammals; therefore, ice melting means that their homeland is shrinking in size, and
they will be on the brink of extinction. Furthermore, scientists point out that the global
rising temperature results in the death of many coral reefs in many regions and the
disappearance of various kinds of fish. It is not to mention the fact that human life has
also been threatened. Most meteorologists and marine experts agree that the change of
average heat worldwide links to the extensive storms and hurricanes, and other
naturally severe disasters happening around the planet. Recently, a devastating
tornado has badly torn a coastal state in the USA, killing at least 70 people and
destroying a lot of houses and infrastructure. The town mayor
Page 12
said that he had never seen such a violently tremendous natural phenomenon before.
Many European countries have also witnessed the rage of Mother Nature when they
have been hit by ferocious storms taking months to recover the local people’s normal
life. No one will know exactly the future, but the worst scenario of the earth can be
predictable for sure if humans continue treating the environment as they are doing.
Global warming is an emergency issue that should be resolved immediately.
1. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Disastrous results of global warming.
B. How bad humans are treating the earth.
C. The deadly storms and tornadoes occurred in many countries.
D. The reason why glaciers are melting.
2. What does the word ‘they’ in line 5 mean?
A. Glaciers
B. Cold lands
C. The polar mammals
D. The habitats of the polar mammals
3. According to the text, what natural disaster has happened?
A. A hurricane in the USA
B. Storms of different types in some European countries and the USA
C. Some droughts and hurricanes in the USA and European countries
D. A flood and a storm in the USA and European countries
4. According to the text, where has suffered badly in a destructive tornado
lately?
A. A mountainous area in a European country
B. A coastal state in Canada
C. A central state in the USA
D. A seaside state in the USA
Page 13
5. Without timely actions, the worst future of humans’ life can be .
A. solved immediately
B. seen by no one
C. certainly forecast
D. surely avoided
TASK 2. Complete the reading passage. Write ONE suitable word in each blank.
In many countries, hydroelectric power plants play an important role in supplying
electricity to households, to manufacturers, and other commercial and service
industries etc. (1) this method in power production brings some
benefits, there are some potential drawbacks we should seriously take into account.
The first one is the substantial damages to the surrounding (2) where
power plants are built. A large lake called a damp is formed to store water, which,
under certain circumstances, could flood an extensive area and destroy habitats of both
plants and (3) animals living in this region. The second pitfall is
that a damp could have many potential accidents for people working there when it is in
the construction process and even when it comes (4) use. Because
of this possibility of disadvantages, the other ways which are greener and more
sustainable in (5) generation should be developed such as wind or
solar power.
