không cần giải Read the following passage about the Integrating Nature into Concrete Jungles and mark the letter A,,B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 31,to 40.,Urban forests are green spaces that bring nature back to concrete environments. As cities expand,,striking a balance between development and nature becomes essential. For decades, urban,developers couldn't see the forest for the trees, focusing on individual buildings while missing the bigger,picture of environmental health. Now many city planners are incorporating more greenery in their designs.,Urban forests include neighborhood parks, tree-lined streets, community gardens, or larger protected areas,within city limits. These spaces serve as islands of nature amid buildings and roads. Without them, cities,would be merely concrete and steel---materials that trap heat and worsen the urban heat island effect.,Urban forests offer significant benefits to city dwellers. [I] They improve air quality by filtering,pollutants and producing oxygen while capturing carbon dioxide that contributes to climate,change. [II] These green spaces provide important health benefits, as studies show they reduce stress and,improve mental wellbeing. [III] Additionally, these areas support biodiversity by providing habitat for birds,,insects, and small animals while creating community gathering spaces where social bonds flourish. [IV],Creating urban forests faces numerous challenges despite their advantages. Space limitations plague,densely populated cities where land is expensive and development competition is fierce. Green projects often,receive less funding priority than infrastructure. Ongoing maintenance presents concerns since plants,require regular care in harsh urban conditions. Climate change adds pressure through extreme weather events,that threaten plant survival. Water management becomes critical in regions experiencing drought or irregular,rainfall. However, solutions like green roofs and pocket parks help integrate nature into limited spaces.,The future of urban forests lies in revolutionary approaches to city greening. Biophilic architecture,integrates living systems directly into buildings, with structures designed to host diverse ecosystems. Smart,forests equipped with sensors monitor health, pollution levels, and biodiversity in real-time. Edible urban,forests produce food while improving ecology, transforming cities into productive landscapes. Climate-,resilient forest systems using predictive modeling select species that will thrive despite changing conditions.,Floating forests on urban waterways create new habitats while filtering water.,Question 31: The phrase "couldn't see the forest for the trees" in paragraph 1 could be best replaced by,A. looked down on B. missed out on C. gave up on D. looked up to,Question 32: The word "them" in paragraph 1 refers to _____.,A. Urban forests,B. Buildings and roads,C. Islands of nature,D. Concrete and steel,Question 33: Where in paragraph 2 does the following sentence best fit?,People living near parks tend to be more physically active, preventing various health problems.,A. [I] B. [II] C. [III] D. [IV],Question 34: According to the passage, all of the following are benefits of urban forests EXCEPT?,A. They improve air quality by filtering pollutants,B. They provide habitats for wildlife and support biodiversity,C. They create community gathering spaces where social bonds flourish,D. They increase property values in surrounding neighborhoods,Question 35: Which of the following best summarises paragraph 3?,A. Urban planners have identified suitable designs for overcoming space constraints while neglecting,maintenance needs, funding limitations, and climate concerns that challenge the implementation of urban,forests in modern city environments.,B. Despite their ecological benefits, urban forests face implementation challenges including space,constraints, funding priorities, maintenance requirements, climate threats, and water management issues,,though solutions like green roofs exist.
