Born on June 30, 1985 in Baltimore, Maryland, to Fred and Debbie Phelps, the youngest of

• Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate
the correct answer to each of the questions:
The increase in urbanization causes different problems. Air and water pollution are amongst
the major issue we have to tackle.
In the first place, cars, factories and burning waste emit dangerous gases that change the air
quality in our cities and pose threats to our health. Dangerous gases such as carbon dioxides and
nitrogen oxides cause respiratory diseases, for instance, bronchitis and asthma. Those are also
proved to have long-term effects on the environment.
Furthermore, with the increasing population, it becomes difficult to manage the waste generated
in cities. Most of the waste is discharged or dumped into rivers or onto streets. The waste pollutes
water and makes it unfit for human consumption. Subsequently, it becomes more and more
difficult for city dwellers to get clean water. Some cities in Africa are unable to provide adequate
water supply because most of the water is lost in pipe leakages. In fact, most city dwellers in
developing countries are forced to boil their water or to buy bottled water, which is very expensive.
There are several actions that could be taken to eradicate the problems described above. Firstly,
a simple solution would be joining community efforts to address problems affecting your city.
Ask your parents, friends and relatives to join in as well. These efforts might include clean-up
campaigns, recycling projects and a signature campaign to ask the government to do something
about the situation. A second measure would be encouraging your teacher to talk about these
problems and to discuss how young people can help to solve them. Finally, writing to local
organizations working on these issues for ideas on how you can contribute to solve them.
36. According to the passage, in cities, where is most of the waste discharged or dumped? A. into lakes or onto streets
B. into rivers or onto streets
C. into dustbins or onto streets
D. into dustbins or into rivers
37. According to the passage, two of the major problems of the increase in urbanization we have to tackle are _______. A. soil and noise pollution B. air and noise pollution C. noise and water pollution
D. air and water pollution

C. deal with D. turn down

B. Children must ask for their parents' permission before joining community efforts.
C. Participators might take part in different kinds of projects and campaigns.
