Câu 27 (0,25 điểm).

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 28 to 35.

The relationship between humans and nature is facing many serious problems. For a long time, human progress depended mainly on industrialization and burning fossil fuels like coal and oil. This helped the economy grow fast, but it caused great harm to our planet. Deforestation, air pollution, and global warming are now destroying ecosystems and threatening human lives around the world.

To save the environment, turning toward green living is very necessary. Green living means changing our daily habits to reduce our carbon footprint and protect natural resources. Simple actions can make a big difference if we do them together. For example, we should use less plastic, turn off lights when leaving a room, and practice the 3 Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle). In addition, governments and large companies need to invest in clean energy sources like solar power and wind energy.

Transitioning to a green economy also brings many economic benefits. It creates millions of green jobs, improves public health by reducing pollution, and protects natural resources for the future. Although some people argue that green policies are too expensive, the cost of doing nothing is much higher. If we do not protect nature, we will face more severe disasters like floods and storms. Protecting the Earth is a requirement for the survival of future generations.
