2/ Read the passage, then decide if the following sentences are true (T) or false(F)
SAVE THE WORLD
We are all destroying the earth. The seas and rivers are too dirty to swim in. There is so
much smoke in the air that it is unhealthy to live in many of world’s cities. We have cut down
so much trees that there are now vast areas of wasteland all over the world. As a result, farmers
in parts of Africa can not grow enough to eat. In certain countries in Asia there is too little rice.
Wild animals are quickly disappearing. For instance, tigers are rare in India now because we

have killed too many. However, it isn’t enough simply to talk about the problem. We must act
now before it is too late to do anything sbout it. Join us now. Save the Earth. This is too
important to ignore.
Wasteland : đất khô cằn ; hoang mạc rare :hiếm ignore : lờ đi
