large cities, including many that have reached sizes that are historically unprecedented. Just two

Exercise 9: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions from 1 to 5.
I.
Where the significance of migration to cities is recognised, it is widely seen as a problem.
In 2013, a UN study of all 193 UN member states found that 80 per cent had policies to reduce
rural to urban migration. This figure has risen substantially in recent decades, up from only 38
per cent in 1996. It is also more pronounced in poorer countries: 88 percent of the least
developed countries reported policies to reduce migration to urban areas.
But this negative attitude towards migration to cities may well be mistaken. The WMR
argues that problems of access to services — such as housing, sanitation, education or
employment — that result from rural to urban migration, are not inevitable. Rather, they are
caused by poor planning. Although all socio- economic classes are reflected in migration to
cities, migrants from rural areas are disproportionately poor, and inadequate planning is often a
result of a weak political will to support them.
In this way, migrants who come to cities can help diversify the networks that the city can
draw upon — for instance, by linking cities to broader global networks. Perhaps the most famous
example of this is Eastleigh in Nairobi. Known as “Little Mogadishu”, this neighborhood has
become a vibrant, global commercial hub, powered by enterprising members of the Somali,
Ethiopian and Kenyan diasporas.

D. Eastleigh in Nairobi is considered the poorest city in the world.
II.
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 dioxide
and nitrogen oxides cause respiratory diseases, for instant, bronchitis and asthma those are also
proved to have long-term effects on the environment.
Furthermore, with the increased 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.

Exercise 11: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions from 1 to 7.
I.
Tokyo, with a population of 33 million people, is by far the largest aty in world. It’s also the most
technologically advanced, and the city runs like digital clockwork. The automated subway, for
example, is so efficient that it is able to transport almost eight million commuters every day and
on the rare occasions that it goes wrong, nobody believes it. If you are late for work in Tokyo
and, as an excuse, you say that your train was late, you need to provide written proof from the
train company. The idea of date trains is almost unthinkable. There is very little crime, violence,
or vandalism
in Tokyo and the streets are safe to walk by day or night. There is also relatively low
unemployment compared to other big cities in the world.
But such a huge population creates serious problems of space, and as Marr flew over Tokyo in a
helicopter he saw football pitches, playgrounds, even driving schools constructed on top of
buildings. Streets, parks, and subways are extremely crammed. Property prices are so high and
space is so short that a family of six people may live in a tiny flat
of only 25 square meters.
There are other problems too, of alienation and loneliness. The Hikikomori are inhabitants of
Tokyo who cannot cope with ‘the mechanical coldness and robotic uniformity’ of a megacity and
have become recluses, rarely or never leaving their homes. There is also a new business that has
grown up in Tokyo which allows friendless people to ‘rent a friend’ to accompany them to a
wedding or just to sit and chat to them in a bar after work.
Another strange group of people are the Hashiriya, Tokyo's Street racers who risk their lives
driving at ridiculous speeds along the city streets. During the week these men have ordinary jobs
and they’re model citizens. But on Saturday nights they spend the evening driving though the
city as fast as they possibly can. It’s a deadly game, but it’s just one way of escaping the daily
pressures of life in the metropolis.
(Adapted from New English File by Clive Oxenden and Christina Latham-Koenig)
1. What best serves as the title for the passage?
A. Tokyo: A city of alienation and loneliness B. Tokyo: A prime example of a megacity.

2. The word “it” in the first paragraph refers to__________.
A. automated subway B. Tokyo C. digital clockwork D. train company
3. According to paragraph 1, why does the idea of late trains seem implausible in Tokyo?
A. because the trains are automated |
B. because it is capable of transporting nearly eight million commuters every day
C. because it 1s sponsored by train companies
D. because it is so effective that it just goes wrong on rare occasions
4. The word “crammed” in the second paragraph is closet in meaning to
A. spacious B. occupied C. packed D. busy
5. The word “recluses” in paragraph 3 mostly means________.
A. hermits B. introverts C. monks D. ascetics
6. Which of the following is NOT mentioned about Tokyo in the passage?
A. Due to the severe space shortage, property prices are so high.
B. In Tokyo, a new business has been growing, allowing single people to rent a boyfriend or a
girlfriend.
C. Some individuals tend to avoid going outside due to isolation and loneliness.
D. During the week, the Hashiriya are model citizens and Tokyo’s Street races on Saturday
nights.
7. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. Japanese government is planning to invest more in constructing schools on top of buildings.
B. People in Tokyo are too busy to even make friends.
C. Tokyo is a wealthy city, but it may be difficult to live there because of overcrowding and busy
lifestyles.
D. Living in Tokyo would make you solitary and stressed-because of the busy environment.
II.
Buying a house is the single largest financial investment an individual makes. Yet, in
India this act is fraught with risk and individuals depend on weak laws for justice. Occasionally,
deviant promoters are called to account as was the case in the detention of Unitech's promoters.
This incident shows up the fallout of an absence of proper regulation to cover contracts between
buyers and real estate promoters. A real estate bill, which is presently pending in Rajya Sabha,
seeks to fill this gap. It has been debated for over two years and should be passed by Parliament
in the budget session.
India is in the midst of rapid urbanization and urban population is expected to more than
double to about 900 million over the next three decades. Unfortunately, even the current
population does not have adequate housing. A government estimate in 2012 put the shortage at
nearly 19 million units. If this shortage is to be alleviated quickly, India's messy real estate sector
needs reforms.
The real estate bill seeks to set standards for contracts between buyers and sellers.
Transparency, a rare commodity in real estate, is enforced as promoters have to upload project
details on the regulators’ website. Importantly, standard definitions of terms mean that buyers
will not feel cheated after taking possession of a house. In order to protect buyers who pay
upfront, a part of the money collected for a real estate project is ring-fenced in a separate bank
account. Also, given the uncertainty, which exists in India on land titles, the real estate bill
provides title insurance. This bill has been scrutinized by two parliamentary committees and its
passage now brooks no delay.
This bill is an important step in cleaning up the real estate market, but the journey should
not end with it. State governments play a significant role in real estate and they are often the
source of problems. Some estimates suggest that real estate developers have to seek approvals of
as many as 40 central and state departments, which lead to delays and an escalation in the cost of
houses. Sensibly, NDA government's project to provide universal urban housing forces states to
institute reforms to access central funding. Without real estate reforms at the level of states, it
will not be possible to
