Keep Our Environment Clean

About two hundred years ago, man lived in greater harmony with his environment because the
industry was not much developed. Today the situation is quite different. People all over the world
are worried about what is happening to the environment because of modem industry and the need for
more and more energy. Newspapers and magazines write about water pollution, air pollution and
land pollution.

Why is there so much discussion about pollution? After all, people have been polluting the world
around them for thousands and thousands of years. In the past, there were not so many people and
Page 8
lots of room in the world so they could move to another place when their settlements became dirty.
Now, however, many parts of the world are crowded, people live in big cities and much of our
waste, especially waste from factories, electric power stations, the chemical industry is very
dangerous. Fish dies in the lakes, rivers, and seas, forest frees die, too. Much of this dangerous waste
goes into the air and is carried by winds for great distances.

The Earth is our home. Putting an end to this problem is not the responsibility of an individual or a
group or an organization. It must be the responsibility of the whole humankind.

A/ Decide if the following sentences are true or false. Write T if the answer is correct and F if
the answer is incorrect. (0.4 m)

and by the 1850smost of the continent had been explored and an additional five self-governing
crown colonies established. On 1 January 1901, the six colonies federated, forming the
Commonwealth of Australia. Australia has since maintained a stable liberal democratic political
system. The population of 24 milion is highly urbanized and heavily concentrated on the eastern
seaboard.
Australia has the world’s 13th-largest economy and ninth-highest per capita income (IMF).

Transcript:
If you ask people in Japan what’s the best thing from their country, they might say instant
noodles. Sometimes called ramen, instant noodles are enjoyed around the world. Where did they
come from? The history of instant noodles begins in Japan in 1957. Momofuku Ando was 47 years
old. At that time, Japan was not a developed country. Some people didn’t have enough food to eat.
Ando wanted to make a new food. It should be easy to make and not cost a lot of money. He wanted
to make instant noodles. For one year, he tried to make it. Nothing worked. One day, something
good happened. He put noodles in hot oil. It worked well. They became easy to eat after sitting in
hot water for a few minutes. He found a way to make instant noodles.
People in Japan loved them. Five years later, he went to America. Some business people tried
his instant noodles. He watched them eat and saw something interesting.
The Americans put noodles in a cup. That gave Ando another idea: cup noodles. In 1971, he
made instant noodles in a cup. It was a big seller. Ando died in 2007. Many people remember Ando
as the man who created a new and special Japanese food. And it is started with a man and an idea.
Dịch bài đọc:
Nếu bạn hỏi người dân Nhật Bản cái gì tốt nhất từ đất nước của họ, họ có thể nói mì ăn liền.
Đôi khi được gọi là ramen, mì ăn liền được thưởng thức trên khắp thế giới. Chúng đến từ đâu vậy?
Lịch sử của mì ăn liền bắt đầu ở Nhật Bản vào năm 1957. Momofuku Ando 47 tuổi. Vào thời
điểm đó, Nhật Bản không phải là một quốc gia phát triển. Một số người không có đủ thức ăn để ăn.
Ando muốn làm một món ăn mới. Nó phải dễ làm và không tốn nhiều tiền. Ông muốn làm mì ăn
liền. Trong một năm, ông đã cố gắng để làm nó. Không có hiệu quả gì. Một ngày nọ, một tin vui đã
xảy ra. Ông cho mì vào dầu nóng. Nó có hiệu quả tốt. Chúng trở nên dễ ăn sau khi để trong nước
nóng vài phút. Ông đã tìm ra cách làm mì ăn liền.
Người dân Nhật Bản yêu chúng. Năm năm sau, ông sang Mỹ. Một số người kinh doanh đã
thử mì ăn liền của ông. Ông nhìn họ ăn và thấy một điều thú vị.
Người Mỹ cho mì vào cốc. Điều đó đã cho Ando một ý tưởng khác: mì cốc. Năm 1971, ông
làm mì ăn liền trong cốc. Đó là món hàng bán chạy. Ando qua đời vào năm 2007. Nhiều người nhớ

II/ Read the following passage and complete thesentences. (1 điểm)
About 4,000 years ago a young boy called Elmesu wished his father good health and a long life by
writing a Father’s Day message on a card made of clay. No one knows what happened to Elmesu or
his father, but the tradition of having a special day honoring fathers has continued through the years
in countries across the world.
Father’s Day is celebrated on 3rd Sunday in June in many parts of the world. The idea for creating a
day for children to honor their fathers began in Spokane, Washington. A woman named Sonora
Smart Dodd thought of the idea for Father’s Day while listening to a Mother’s Day teaching given in
a church in 1909. Having been raised by her father, Henry Jackson Smart after her mother died,
Sonora wanted her father to know how special he was to her. It was her father that did everything for
her and was, in the eyes of his daughter, a courageous, selfless, and loving man. Sonora’s father was
born in June, so she chose to hold the first Father’s Day celebration in Spokane, Washington on the
19th June, 1910.
1.According to the writer, Father’s Day was first celebrated _____________________.
2.Elmesu wrote a message on a clay card to wish _____________________________.
