Every one of us produces garbage of one kind or another. Some of the garbage is \ thrown into the sea. Some is burnt or buried
under the ground. Every year we need to find about 800,000 cubic metres of empty land just to bury the garbage.
This is the same as filling one football stadium with garbage up to 20 metres high. This garbage damages the environment.

and paper as well as tin cans. People can refuse to take the plastic bags from the shops and supermarkets by bringing with them ;
their own bags or baskets when they go shopping.

The lifestyle of people living in urban areas of big cities like Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi is different from that of people living in
rural areas of villages etc. Life in the city is often modern and complicated. City life is busy and most adults are working. The

of activities such as raising livestock, making handicrafts and farming etc. Along the coastal line, fishermen are very dependent

to each of the following questions from 31 to 36.
Eating a balanced diet means choosing a wide variety of foods and drinks from all s the food groups. It also means eating certain
things in moderation, namely saturated fat, cholesterol, refined sugar, and salt. The goal is to take in nutrients you need for
health at the recommended levels. You can get the most nutrients by choosing foods with a high-nutrient density. Nutrient-dense
foods provide substantial amounts of vitamins and minerals and relatively few calories, such as fresh fruit and vegetables, lean
meat and fish, and whole grains and beans.
Low-nutrient dense foods have few vitamins but lots of calories, such as candy bars, soda, donuts and onion rings. Vegetable
sources of protein, such as nuts, beans, and whole grains are great choices and offer vitamins, minerals and healthy fibres. The
best protein choices are poultry and fish. For those who love red meat, you should stick with the leanest cuts, choose moderate
portion sizes, and make it only an occasional part of your diet. Developing healthy eating habits is not as confusing or as restrictive
as you may imagine. The first principle of a healthy diet is simply to eat a wide variety of foods. This is important because different
foods make different nutritional contributions. Fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes-foods high in complex carbohydrates, fibre,
vitamins, and minerals, low in fat and free of cholesterol-should make up the bulk of the calories you consume. The rest should
come from low-fat dairy products, lean meat and poultry, and fish.
