Exercise 12. Read the passage about Air Pollution and find the answers to the questions below.
AIR POLLUTION
We are nowadays becoming more aware of pollution matters that affect dramatically our lives, especially
there is growing concern about air pollution. There are some reasons that lead to this kind of pollution.
Firstly, the development of industrial zones, factories and building construction areas is producing a large
amount of dust and poisonous air. Especially in developing countries, people don’t pay much attention to

the air treatment process which makes the air pollution even worse. Secondly, because of the increasing
urbanization, it can be easily seen that there is always a lot of traffic in rush hour and dust on the road these
days. The smoke from vehicles and manufacturing exhaust increases the amount of carbon dioxide in the
air which makes US feel really hard to breathe. The consequences are very bad. Smog and dust can do
serious harm to our health, especially our lungs. We have thousands of asthma and adult respiratory
distress cases each year which raise concern about the air quality. Moreover, acid rain is becoming more
and more popular which damages crops and fields. Many people believe that air pollution is also causing
global warming and it is difficult to improve the air without the efforts of all countries around the world.

Exercise 13. 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 in the home. It can be conserved by taking short
shower 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

reusing.

There are many causes that lead to water pollution. One main cause of this issue is waste water coming

without any treatment because this is the most convenient way of disposing waste water. Industrial waste
consists of some kind of chemical substance such as sulphur, which is harmful to marine life. Lead is
known as the main reason for cancer disease. Cancer has become a popular disease in several communes
which are called “cancer villages”. Another cause is the awareness of citizens, people always use water for
many purposes and then they dump waste water or garbage directly into rivers, canals, and ponds and so
on. In 2004, because of bird flu outbreak in Viet Nam, people threw poultry to water body that made
water highly polluted.

A new shopping mall is opening in Nam’s neighborhood today. It is very different from the present
shopping area. All the shops are under one roof. There will be air-conditioners, movie theaters, restaurants

and children's play areas. That will be very convenient, especially during the hot and humid summer
months. Customers will shop in comfort and won’t notice the weather.
Some people in the neighborhood, however, are not happy about the changes. The owners of the small
stores on Tran Phu Street think the mall will take their business. Some of the goods in the new stores will
be the same as the ones in the small shops, but the stores in the mall will offer a wider selection of
products, some at cheaper prices. The residents and store owners have been concerned about the new mall

Nowadays, Vietnamese (1) _____________ are in favour of purchasing products from e-commerce floors
due to their significant benefits. To begin with, users can easily find a wide range of products, including
electronic devices, clothes, food and drink, etc. on these shopping platforms; therefore, they are really

products, comparing their prices among multiple online stores and reading customers' reviews to make a
final decision on what they will buy. Furthermore, (3) _____________ prices are a big advantage of
buying online products. On special occasions these online markets supply compulsive shoppers heaps of
promo codes, helping them enjoy the feeling of obtaining items at reduced prices. Another outstanding
feature of e-commerce (4) _____________ attracting new buyers every day is its convenience. With a few
15


mouse clicks at home, customers can own everything available on e-commerce websites. They neither
hastily browse through the products nor waste their time (5) _____________ like in the outside stores. This
new way of shopping clearly satisfies frequent shoppers' demand.
Exercise 2. Read the passage, then tick True (T) or False (F).
The whole shopping area in Vincom Mega Mall Royal City Thanh Xuan is huge, so you have countless

Vinmart, the small supermarket belonging to Vingroup. is also located right there, offering you everything
you may need, easily acquired by card or cash.
All that shopping can grow an appetite, therefore, filling up your stomach in the restaurant section
afterwards would be a great idea. The food court is home to tons of eating options from unique Vietnamese
street food to typical cuisine of China, Japan, Korea, and European countries.

Exercise 3. Read the passage carefully, then answer the questions below.
Shopping is a necessary part of life which very few people can avoid. Some people go shopping more
regularly than other people to browse products in shops even when they do not have much money. This is
known as window shopping and allows people to plan ahead and save for the things they want to buy in the
future or wait for the items to drop in price. Some people spend a lot of time looking for bargains while
others do not think of the price and are happy to spend a lot. Some people believe that the more expensive
the item, the better the quality, but this is not always true. It is sensible to buy items which are affordable,
but some people use a credit card or borrow money from the bank so that they can buy the items they
really want rather than wait for it.
Sometimes shopping can be stressful when choosing a gift to buy for other people for a special occasion. It
is common to buy a gift voucher so that a friend or loved one can go shopping themselves at their own
convenience. Shopping online is often popular with people who have a busy lifestyle. People are able to
order their necessary and luxury items from the comfort of their own home, or even on the move. Delivery
is usually free and items are often cheaper than in shops on the high street. The only real problem is that
the item description and quality may be more different than what they hoped for. This could mean the
customer may become disappointed with the item they receive and will need to return it at their own cost.
People who go to shops to do their shopping often use self- service payment machines. This usually saves
time as the shopper does not need to join a long queue. However, it can be frustrating when the machine
has a problem and the sales assistant is not always available to help.

Shopping Online
19


Lots of people enjoy the benefits of online shopping. You don’t have to sit in traffic jams or wait at bus
stops or at train stations. Because online stores are open 24 hours, seven days a week, you can sit at your
computer and shop at your leisure. And you don’t have to collect your product because they deliver it right
to your door.
But shopping online isn’t all great - you need to be very careful when deciding what to buy and where to
buy it. Here are some tips for shopping safely online.
Use a secure connection
The easiest way of making sure the connection is secure is to look for the lock sign in the address bar.
Another is to look at the start of the website address. If this starts with “https”, there is a secure connection

because the letter “s” means “secure”. If you see ‘http’ with no “s”, don’t enter the website or give your
personal or bank details. It could be a false website that is trying to steal your money or personal
information.
Use a secure payment method
Only shop on sites that offer secure payment methods, like credit cards and other payment systems. This
gives you protection in a situation where you and the shop disagree - the shop can’t say you did anything
illegal, like using another person’s credit card to pay. Banks usually contact you if they think something is
wrong.
Create a strong password
A strong password is very important. It’s usually a good idea to change your passwords every few months,
just in case someone finds out what they are. Also, try to use a different password for different online
shopping sites: once someone guesses one password, they can get access to everything you do online.
Check other customers' comments
Always check the seller’s history when using online sites. You can get an idea by looking at other buyers’
comments. If you are not sure about a product, you can always send the seller a question and the good
sellers will reply fairly quickly.
