II. READING (2 points)
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. Consequently, the price we would
pay for the flooding or for the increase of greenhouse
gasses 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.

1. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Some reasons of deforestation and its impacts on people’s lives
B. Why floods happen frequently
C. Human’s responsibility for protecting forests
D. The rate of carbon dioxide has been rising
2. What does the word ‘this’ in line 18 refer to?
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
5.

According to the reading, what is the solution to deal with this
environmental problem?
A. Raising people’s awareness
B. Fining illegal loggers heavily
C. Boosting reforestation
D. Planting more coffee and rubber trees

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 you 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.

An:

Amazing! My brothers and cousins will be excited about this
kind of tourism. So, could you give me more information about
the accommodation and price that I can choose…..?

Script:

Hello everyone, welcome to the Evening news podcast today. We start
with the news of the wildlife environment. There is a threat to the redshanked 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 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.

Welcome to Can Gio Biosphere Reserve in Can Gio District, Ho Chi Minh
City!

mangroves as well as a network of canals and rivers. It’s also wellknown for the biodiversity of the flora and 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.

outside into the preservation area. Remember not to feed or touch
the monkeys there.
