A. Ho Chi Minh City |
In Ho Chi Minh City, it is not strange to see the sight of a street that is crowded with vehicles. People cannot move and their health is affected by polluted air from exhausted fumes. What are the reasons? The citizens in the city use many personal vehicles to go from one place to another. They aren't used to transporting by public transports. May be because the bus drivers are careless, impolite to them or the taxi fare is too high for some people.
Bangkok is world renowned for its terrible traffic problems, so getting around on the roads is a bit of a nightmare. In my opinion, there are 3 main causes of Bangkok traffic jams. First, the quality of public transportation is low. Bus is of low quality and causes congestion. Second, the BTS and MRT are not enough for users. Finally, the most important cause of traffic jam is car accidents. Bad bus drivers cause accidents frequently and make the road stuck for hours.

Read the passage and put a suitable word in each of the gaps. Traffic jams in Vietnam only frequently take place in Hanoi capital and Ho Chi Minh City. Vietnamese people seem to be accustomed to traffic congestion, even miss it whenever they go to other places. There is no fixed rule for the time the traffic jams to happen but it is worst during the rush hour when everyone is in a hurry to get to work or come back home. Apart from peak hours, the time between 9 am and 10 am and between 3 pm and 4 pm also witnesses long lines of vehicles, mainly motorbikes, struggling to get out of narrow streets. Whenever it rains, the traffic jam gets more terrible with the joining hand of flooding. Taxis are extremely hard to catch or wave during the downpour. However, it only takes about 30 minutes on average for a standstill and 2 hours to get through the worst, not really bad compared to that of other countries. While the rapid increase in car use coupled with the deterioration of roads caused by disordered planning make the matter worse, the most annoying thing about the traffic jam is the way people react when being stuck at the congestion. Most road users ride their motorbikes on the pavement rather than waiting calmly, or they constantly use their horns to hasten riders in the front, even shouting at them from time to time. More luckily, bicyclists can leisurely carry their "war-horses" on their backs and thread their way through messy matrixes.

Energy is fundamental to human beings. Many poor people in developing countries do not have modern sources of energy like electricity or natural gas, with which their life can be improved.
People who live in mountainous areas have to gather wood for fuel. This takes a lot of time. For many people living in rural areas, biogas is the largest energy resource available. The main use of biogas is for cooking and heating, but it can also provide energy for public transport. As biogas is smoke-free, it helps solve the problem of indoor air pollution. Moreover, it’s made from plant waste and animal manure. They cost almost nothing.
The tendency to use renewable energy sources in developing countries is on the increase as non-renewable ones are running outệIn the future, the wind and the sun will be used as the most important environmentally friendly energy sources.

Khi hầu hết mọi người nghĩ đến đan len, họ nghĩ đến áo len sợi, khăn quàng cổ hoặc mũ. Nhưng một số người làm điều gì đó khác với đan len. Họ đan sợi cho các đồ vậy ! “ Yarn bombing” là một loại hình nghệ thuật đường phố. Mọi người đan những chiếc “áo khoác” đầy màu sắc để che những vật thể lớn, chẳng hạn như ô tô, cây cối, xe đạp và thậm chí cả cây cầu!
Knot the Bridge là dự án bom sợi lớn nhất từ trước đến nay ở Hoa Kỳ. Hàng trăm người đã đan 2.500 tấm và che cầu Andy Warhol ở Pittsburgh bằng chúng. Đó là một dự án đặc biệt vì nhiều nhóm người đã làm việc cùng nhau. Họ trở nên thân thiết hơn thông qua dự án.
Trên khắp thế giới, bạn có thể tìm thấy các ví dụ về “yarn bombing” ở nhiều nơi, chẳng hạn như London, Copenhagen, Paris, Mexico City và Bali. Những người tham gia hy vọng sẽ kể những câu chuyện thông qua nghệ thuật đan của họ. Họ muốn làm cho thành phố của họ nhiều màu sắc và thú vị hơn. Họ cũng muốn mọi người nhìn thành phố của họ theo một cách khác.
