Over the last century, Dubai has been through an extraordinary and visionary transformation The city has evolved from a 10,000 desert-dwelling population in the early 1900, into one of today’s most cosmopolitan cities, with a population of over 2.7 million people
A fast-growing urban population, coupled with climate change, has created significant challenges
on how Dubai can improve the quality of the lives for (9) _ citizens, whilst also reducing their impact
Trang 2on the environment In the last few decades, UAE has (10) _ ranked as having one of the highest
annual carbon dioxide emissions per capita Thus Dubai becoming a sustainable and smart city is no
longer a choice; it has become a necessity This is why Dubai has an ambitious plan (11) _ one of the
most sustainable and smartest cities in the world
UAE is also expecting to welcome 45 million people by 2021, of which 31 million will be
international tourists This has also contributed (12) _ the acceleration of plans for a new generation
of smart projects, making the city a testbed for innovative designers to push the boundaries within the built environment In addition to the Expo 2020, other plans include a new ultra-fast Hyperloop train
(13) _ will travel from Dubai to Abu Dhabi in 12 minutes (14) _ a top speed of 750 mph, as well
as plans for the world’s greenest eco resort
10. A consistent B consistently C consistency

Part 2 Read the passage and choose the best answer.
Plants and animals will find it difficult to escape from or adjust to the effects of global warming Scientists have already observed shifts in the lifecycles of many plants and animals, such as flowers blooming earlier and birds hatching earlier in the spring Many species have begun shifting where they live or their annual migration patterns due to warmer temperatures
With further warming, animals will tend to migrate toward the poles and up mountainsides toward higher elevations Plants will also attempt to shift their ranges, seeking new areas as old habitats grow too warm In many places, however, human development will prevent these shifts Species that find cities or farmland blocking their way north or south may become extinct Species living in unique ecosystems, such as those found in polar and mountaintop regions, are especially at risk because migration to new habitats is not possible For example, polar bears and marine mammals in the Arctic are already
threatened by dwindling sea ice but have nowhere farther north to go
Projecting species extinction due to global warming is extremely difficult Some scientists have estimated that 20 to 50 percent of species could be committed to extinction with 2 to 3 Celsius degrees of further warming The rate of warming, not just the magnitude, is extremely important for plants and animals Some species and even entire ecosystems, such as certain types of forest, may not be able to adjust quickly enough and may disappear
Ocean ecosystems, especially fragile ones like coral reefs, will also be affected by global
warming Warmer ocean temperatures can cause coral to “bleach”, a state which if prolonged will lead to the death of the coral Scientists estimate that even 1 Celsius degree of additional warming could lead to widespread bleaching and death of coral reefs around the world Also, increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere enters the ocean and increases the acidity of ocean waters This acidification further stresses ocean ecosystems
(From "Global Warming" by Michael Mastrandrea and Stephen H Schneider)
15 What does the passage mainly discuss?
A Influence of climate changes on human lifestyles
B Effects of global warming on animals and plants
C Global warming and possible solutions
16 Scientists have observed that warmer temperatures in the spring cause flowers to _
A die instantly B bloom earlier C become lighter
17 According to paragraph 2, when their habitats grow warmer, animals tend to move _
A north-westwards and down mountainsides toward higher elevations
B toward the North Pole and down mountainsides toward lower elevations
C toward the poles and up mountainsides toward higher elevations
18 According to paragraph 3, if some species are not able to adjust quickly to warmer temperatures, _
A they may disappear B they move to tropical forests C they will certainly need water
19 The word “fragile” in paragraph 4 most probably means _
A very large B easily damaged C rather strong
Trang 320 The level of acidity in the ocean is increased by _
A the rising amount of carbon dioxide entering the ocean
B the decrease of acidity of the pole waters
C the extinction of species in coastal areas
Part 3 Read the passage again and fill in each blank with NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS
21 Scientists have already observed birds hatching earlier in the spring because of global warming.
22 Species living in unique ecosystems, such as polar and mountaintop regions, are especially at risk
because they have nowhere farther north or higher to go when the earth gets warmer
23 It has been estimated that 20 to 50 percent of species could be committed to extinction with 2 to 3
Celsius degrees of further warming
