Every day on radio, on TV, and in the newspapers, we hear, see, or read about many problems in the world, for example, pollution problems. Air pollution is the first kind. It mostly comes from fumes released from motorbikes, cars, airplanes, trains, and poisonous gases emitted from factories. Also, waste is dumped anywhere, even in the city where many people are living. The second pollution problem is sea pollution. Many people earn their living from fishing in the sea, and the fish they catch feed many people. But the sea has become so polluted from oil spills and factory wastes that the fish are dying. This pollution is not only killing the fish, but also affecting those people who eat fish. Seldom do you find a place nowadays that is not polluted. This problem is growing more difficult every day. We must find a good solution that makes the world a better place to live.
T or F
1. pollution is becoming a serious problem nowadays. T
2. vehicles and industries are among the causes of air pollution. T
3. sea pollution does not affect us at all. F
4. only major cities are affected by pollution F

Mỗi ngày trên đài phát thanh, trên TV và trên các tờ báo, chúng ta nghe, nhìn hoặc đọc về nhiều vấn đề trên thế giới, ví dụ, các vấn đề ô nhiễm. Ô nhiễm không khí là loại đầu tiên. Nó chủ yếu đến từ khói thải ra từ xe máy, ô tô, máy bay, tàu hỏa và khí độc phát ra từ các nhà máy. Ngoài ra, chất thải được đổ ở bất cứ đâu, ngay cả trong thành phố nơi có nhiều người sinh sống. Vấn đề ô nhiễm thứ hai là ô nhiễm biển. Nhiều người kiếm sống bằng nghề đánh bắt cá trên biển và con cá họ bắt được cho nhiều người ăn. Nhưng biển đã trở nên ô nhiễm từ sự cố tràn dầu và chất thải nhà máy đến nỗi cá đang chết dần. Ô nhiễm này không chỉ giết chết cá mà còn ảnh hưởng đến những người ăn cá. Ít khi bạn tìm thấy một nơi không bị ô nhiễm. Vấn đề này đang trở nên khó khăn hơn mỗi ngày. Chúng ta phải tìm một giải pháp tốt làm cho thế giới trở thành một nơi tốt hơn để sống
