There is too much carbon dioxide (CO2 ) in the air When oil, gas, and coal burn, they create large amounts of carbon dioxide We send five billion tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every year This amount will double in fifty years This carbon dioxide lets sunlights enter the earth’s atmosphere and heat the earth However, it does not let as much heat leave the atmosphere and enter space It is like a blanket The heat can pass from the sun through the blanket to warm the earth The heat stays there and can not escape through the blanket again Scientists call this greenhouse effect A greenhouse is a building for growing plants It is made of glass or clear plastic QUESTIONS What is a greenhouse ? A greenhouse with is made of glass or clear plastic What causes the greenhouse effect ? There is too much carbon dioxide in the air Why scientists call this the greenhouse effect ? Scientists call this the greenhouse effect because there is too much carbon dioxide(CO2) in the air This carbon dioxide lets sunlights enter the earth’s atmosphere and heat the earth However, it dose not let sa much heat leave the atmosphere and enter space It is like a blanket The heat can pass from the sun through the blanket to warm the earth The heat stays there and can not escape through the blanket again What changes will this effect make in the earth’s climate ? This effect will make a lot of major changes in the Earth’s climate such as higher temperature in coastal waters, seriours effect on agriculture, dry area, decreasing amount of water and decreasing in agricultural What would the temperature in the Arctic and Antarctic regions be in the year 2040 ? 10 Through their work How are developing countries exposed to Western societies ? Through the media and travel II In societies where people tend to live together in extended family groups, - consisting of grandparents, great uncles and aunts, parents, aunts and uncles, children and cousins, for example - care of both young and old is the natural function of the group The State is only needed when the efficiency of the group breaks down, because of illness or poverty, for example In Britain, however, people tend to live in nuclear family groups ( parents and children only ), with the result that the care of the old is a social problem and the State needs to intervene What is more, if the relationship between husband and wife breaks down, the children are immediately at risk, and State intervention may be necessary for them too Where parents care for their children, however, they usually take their responsibilities very seriously The British population is already one of the oldest in Europe, and it is slowly getting older In 1990 the median age in Britain was thirty-six but it will rise to forty-one by 2020 At the end of the 1990s the number of pensioners will begin to rise rapidly, and the workforce will shrink One result will be that by 2020 there will be twice as many people aged eighty-five or over as in 1990 A disproportionate number of the old, incidentally, choose to retire to the south coast and East Anglia, creating regional imbalances Questions : What is an extended family ? An extended family is a big family consisting of many members such as grandparents, great uncles and aunts, parents, aunts and uncles, children and cousins What is a nuclear family ? A nuclear family is a small one with only parents and chilren Who takes care of the young and old in an extended family ? Members such sa parent, Uncles and aunts take care of the young and old in an extended family What is a possible consequence if the relationship between the husband and the wife breaks down The chilren are immediately at risk Bài 3: Đọc đọc tìm từ thích hợp để điền vào chỗ trống: John Bradley was surprised to find a letter (1)…… left ….…for him on his desk when he arrived at work Before (2)…… opening … …it, he up his coat and took out his glasses “Dear Mr Bradley,” he read, “ we are sorry to (3)…… tell/inform … you that your services are no longer required (4)… now ……” He couldn’t believe it After (5)…… working.…for the company for 30 years, he had been made redundant, one Monday morning without (6) …… being.… warned in any way at all There was no point in (7)… continuing …….the letter The ending was obvious “Thank you for your loyalty and dedication over the years, and we hope you will enjoy (8)…… having ….more time to spend” The company wanted him to go away quietly and enjoy his premature retirement He was 52 How he could manage to find another (9)…… job …at his age?

 Probably he has been breathing secondhand smoke from his wife’s smoking during their marriage What is secondhand smoke ? It is the smoke from other people’s cigarette smoking Why might secondhand smoke harm nonsmokers ? Because it contains many different poisonous chemicals What are some laws that prohibit smoking in certain places ? They are laws that prohibit smoking in public places and on short domestic flights What is the main idea of this passage ?
