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.
Pollution is a growing problem in Vietnam, affecting the environment and people's health.
Major cities like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City suffer from severe air pollution due to traffic
congestion and industrial emissions. The high levels of dust and harmful gases in the air
can cause respiratory diseases and other health issues. In addition, water pollution is a
significant concern as factories and households release untreated waste into rivers and
lakes, making clean water scarce in some areas.
Another major type of pollution in Vietnam is plastic waste. Every year, large amounts of
plastic end up in the ocean, harming marine life and ecosystems. Many beaches and rivers
are heavily polluted with plastic bottles, bags, and other waste. While the government and
environmental organizations are working to promote recycling and reduce plastic use, the
problem remains serious. Without proper waste management and public awareness,
plastic pollution will continue to threaten the environment.
To address these issues, Vietnam has taken steps such as implementing stricter
environmental laws and encouraging green energy. Many cities are investing in public
transportation to reduce air pollution from vehicles. Schools and communities are also
educating people about the importance of protecting the environment. However, solving
pollution requires the cooperation of both the government and citizens to ensure a
cleaner and healthier future for Vietnam.
