READING COMPREHENSION
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 following questions.
Garbage cans are not magical portals. Trash does not disappear when you toss it in a can. Yet, the average
American throws away an estimated 1,600 pounds of waste each year. If there are no magic garbage fairies,
where does all that trash go? There are two common methods of managing waste: recycling and landfilling.
Each method has its strengths and weaknesses. Let's take a quick look at each.
Recycling is the process of turning waste into new materials. For example, used paper can be turned into
paperboard, which can be used to make book covers. Recycling can reduce pollution, save materials, and
lower energy use. Yet, some argue that recycling wastes energy. They believe that collecting, processing, and
converting waste uses more energy than it saves. Still, most people agree that recycling is better for the planet
than landfilling.
Landfilling is the oldest method of managing waste. In its simplest form, landfilling is when people bury
garbage in a hole. Over time the practice of landfilling has advanced. Garbage is compacted before it is
thrown into the hole. In this way more garbage can fit in each landfill. Large liners are placed in the bottom of
landfills so that toxic garbage juice doesn't get into the ground water. Sadly, these liners don't always work.
Landfills may pollute the local water supply. Not to mention that all of that garbage stinks. Nobody wants to
live next to a landfill. This makes it hard to find new locations for landfills.
Usually, the community in which you live manages waste. Once you put your garbage in that can, what
happens to it is beyond your control. But you can make choices while it is still in your possession. You can
choose to recycle, you can choose to bury it, or you can choose to let someone else deal with it. The choice is
yours.
Câu 45: Most people believe that recycling is a good way to manage waste because __________.
A. recycling can reduce pollution
B. recycling wastes energy
C. recycling can reduce pollution and save materials
D. recycling can reduce pollution, save materials, and lower energy use
Câu 46: Which conclusion could be drawn from the passage?
A. It is easy to live near a landfill.----------------------------------------
B. Landfilling is the best way to process waste.
C. Each method of waste management has its drawbacks.
D. Recycling is without a doubt the best way to handle waste.
Câu 47: What does the word “stinks” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. looks attractive B. smells unpleasant C. feels soft D. seems dirty
Câu 48: Which of the following serves as the best title for this passage?
A. The Magic of Recycling: Bringing Back What Was Once Lost
B. Methods of Waste Management: Advantages and Disadvantages
C. Recycling or Landfilling : Which is better for You?
D. Do Your Part How to Save the Earth by Recycling and Landfilling
Câu 49: The word “it” in the last paragraph refers to
A. community B. garbage C. waste D. possession
Câu 50: According to the passage, all of the following are mentioned as an issue with landfilling EXCEPT
that
A. it is difficult to find locations for landfills. B. landfills are smelly.
C. usable materials are wasted in landfills. D. landfills may pollute the water supply.
