Exercise 3. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
As urban areas expand rapidly across the globe, city planners are constantly searching for innovative solutions to environmental and housing problems. The cities of the future will be significantly different from what we see today. Instead of concrete jungles filled with endless traffic jams, future metropolises will focus on sustainability, advanced technology, and high quality of life for every city dweller.
In these future cities, the built environment will integrate nature directly into architectural designs. High-rise buildings and modern skyscrapers will feature roof gardens and vertical farms, which helps absorb carbon dioxide, lower temperatures, and provide fresh food. Moreover, the transport infrastructure will undergo a complete transformation. Private vehicles will be heavily restricted in downtown areas, while efficient underground railways and zero-emission electric buses will become the primary modes of travel.
Technology will play a key role in operating these urban centres. Thousands of smart sensors will be installed throughout the streets to collect data on air quality, energy consumption, and vehicle flow. With such state-of-the-art infrastructure, future cities will not only reduce their overall carbon footprint but also provide a cleaner, healthier, and more enjoyable living space for everyone.
Question 1. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The history and evolution of modern skyscrapers.
B. Key features and improvements in the cities of the future.
C. The disadvantages of living in suburban areas today.
D. How to install smart sensors in high-rise buildings.

A. expand private vehicle ownership in urban centres

ĐÁP ÁN VÀ LỜI GIẢI CHI TIẾT
Exercise 1. Complete the sentences with the correct form of the words in brackets.
Câu | Đáp án | Giải thích chi tiết |
