READING

Read the following passage and choose the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

A group of researchers and experts in America and Australia listed 12 countries affecting considerably to the ocean by the year 2018 and the Southeast Asia area has up to 5 representatives: Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. China ranks first with nearly 8.8 million plastic waste, and Vietnam ranks fourth with 1.8 million. It is really alarming that developing countries are the main causes of environmental pollution in 10 recent years. A terrible fact that probably occur by 2050 is that the ocean contains much more waste than sea creatures if the plastic waste situation is still continuing, according to the United Nations report. In addition, the unexpected fact is that it takes only 5 seconds to produce a plastic bag, 1 second to throw, but up to 500 or even 1000 years to decompose.

A reason for water pollution in Vietnam is that many companies and enterprises cannot manage rubbish and then pour waste into rivers and streams, which the government cannot control at all. Meanwhile, rivers and streams are two main sources of water for use.

As a result, in many places in Vietnam, especially remote areas, people get diseases like cholera, diarrhea or skin diseases by having to use water from rivers and streams. The basic reason is that many households are not supplied with piped water and hygienic latrines, so they do not have water to use or do not have a water filtration system. Also, many people take the water from hand-dug wells that are not surely clean. In another hand, many marine creatures died from water pollution due to its heavy chemicals.

It is constantly urgent for the government and businesses to take responsibility for water pollution. The government should have new strict laws to prevent companies from pouring wastes into the water and manage better-piped water systems in many areas.
