Exercise 6: Read the passage and choose the correct answer A, B, C, or D to each of the
questions.
Like many countries, Britain has serious environmental problems. In 1952, more than 4,000
people died in London because of the smog. The government introduced new laws to stop
smog from coal fires and factories and the situation improved a lot.
Today, London is much cleaner but there is a new problem: smog from cars. In December
1991, there was very little wind in London and pollution increased. As a result, about 160
people died from pollution in just four days.
Part of the problem is the new "out of town" shopping centres. In the past, people often
walked to shops near their homes or went by bus. Now, many people drive to the new
shopping centres. The small shops have disappeared and more people have to travel to do
their shopping.
Many people are trying to reduce the use of cars in Britain. Some cities now have special
bicycle lanes, so people cycle to work. Some people also travel to work together in one car to
reduce pollution and costs.
