Câu hỏi: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the co answer to each of the questions from 44 to 50.
Experts in climatology and other scientists are becoming extremely concerned about the changes to our climate which are taking place. Admittedly, climate changes have occurred on our planet before. For example, there have been several ice ages or glacial periods.
These climatic changes, however, were different from the modern ones in that they occurred gradually and, as far as we know, naturally. The changes currently being monitored are said to be the result not of natural causes, but of human activity. Furthermore, the rate of change is becoming alarmingly rapid.
The major problem is that the planet appears to be warming up. According to some experts, this warming process, known as global warming, is occurring at a rate unprecedented in the last 10,000 years. The implications for the planet are very serious. Rising global temperatures could give rise to such ecological disasters as extremely high increases in the incidence of flooding and of droughts. These in turn could have a harmful effect on agriculture.
It is thought that this unusual warming of the Earth has been caused by so-called greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, being emitted into the atmosphere by car engines and modern industrial processes, for example. Such gases not only add to the pollution of the atmosphere, but also create a greenhouse effect, by which the heat of the sun is trapped. This leads to the warming up of the planet.
Politicians are also concerned about climate change and there are now regular summits on the subject, attended by representatives from around 180 of the world’s industrialized countries. Of these summits, the most important took place in Kyoto in Japan in 1997. There it was agreed that the most industrialized countries would try to reduce the volume of greenhouse gas emissions and were given targets for this reduction of emissions. It was also suggested that more forests should be planted to create so-called sinks to absorb greenhouse gases. At least part of the problem of rapid climate change has been caused by too drastic deforestation.
Which of the following is NOT true, according to the passage?
A. Politicians are among those who are concerned about climate change.
B. Carbon dioxide is one of the gases that may cause the so-called greenhouse effect.
C. The so-called sinks created by forests can absorb greenhouse gases.
D. The problem of rapid climate change has been caused mainly by deforestation.

B. Khí cacbonic là một trong những khí có thể gây ra hiệu ứng nhà kính.
C. Cái bể chứa tạo bởi rừng có thể hấp thụ khí gây ra hiệu ứng nhà kính.
D. Vấn đề biến đổi khí hậu diễn ra nhanh chóng chủ yếu do nạn phá rừng gây ra.
Thông tin:
+ Politicians are also concerned about climate change and there are now regular summits on the subject, attended by representatives from around 180 of the world's industrialized countries.
(Các chính trị gia cũng lo ngại về biến đổi khí hậu và hiện nay thường xuyên có các hội nghị thượng đỉnh về chủ đề này, với sự tham dự của đại diện từ khoảng 180 quốc gia công nghiệp hóa trên thế giới.)
→ A đúng
+ It is thought that this unusual warming of the Earth has been caused by so-called greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, being emitted into the atmosphere by car engines and modern industrial processes, for example.
(Người ta nghĩ rằng sự nóng lên toàn cầu của Trái đất điều này là do khí hiệu ứng nhà kính, như CO2, bị thải vào không khí bằng xe hơi động cơ và quy trình công nghiệp hiện đại.)
→ B đúng
+ It was also suggested that more forests should be planted to create so-called sinks to absorb greenhouse gases.
(Người ta cũng gợi ý rằng nên trồng nhiều rừng hơn để tạo “bồn” hấp thụ khí nhà kính.)
→ C đúng
+ At least part of the pronlem of apid climate change has been caused by too drastic deforestation. (It nhất một phần của vấn đề biến đổ , một phần của vấn đề biến đổi khí hậu nhanh chóng là do nạn phá rừng quá mạnh.)
