An exhibition of future cities
(Triển lãm về các thành phố tương lai) Listen and read. (Nghe và đọc.)
Ms Smith: Good morning. Welcome to our exhibition: Future Cities. Here you can
see models of our cities of the future. Please take a look around and feel free to ask me any questions.
Nam: This model looks very interesting. Can you tell me more about it, Ms Smith?
Ms Smith: Yes. This is a ‘green city’ designed to reduce its negative impact on the
environment. As you can see, more than fifty per cent of it is made up of green areas.
Nam: I don’t see any private vehicles on the roads.
Ms Smith: Most people will use public transport such as trams and electric buses.
There will be fewer traffic jams and less pollution.
Nam: So city dwellers will stop using their cars in urban areas.
Ms Smifh: That's the idea.
Nam: I like it. It seems a good solution to many environmental problems. (...)
Mai: Let’s look at the city over there. I can see robots and lots of cameras in the
streets. What's special about this city?
Ms Smith: It's called a ‘smart city’. Al technologies, such as cameras and smart
sensors, will be installed to help the city operate more efficiently.
Mai: The modern infrastructure of the city looks beautiful. I’m really impressed with the high-rise buildings.
Ms Smith: Tall buildings can actually limit the carbon footprint of the built
environment and help solve housing problems in big cities.
Mai: Mmm, I'm thinking of living in a smart city in the future. Bài 2
