Thông tin:
+ It is estimated that by 2050 more than two-thirds of the world's population will live in cities, up from about 54 percent today. (Ước tính rằng trước năm 2050 hơn 2/3 dân số thế giới sẽ sống ở các thành phố, tăng lên từ khoảng 54% ngày nay.)
→ A sai
+ But rapidly increasing population density can create severe problems, especially if planning efforts are not sufficient to cope with the influx of new inhabitants. The result may, in extreme cases, be widespread poverty. (Nhưng mật độ dân số tăng nhanh có thể gây ra các vấn đề nghiêm trọng, nhất là nếu các nỗ lực quy hoạch không đủ để đối phó với làn sóng cư dân mới. Trong một số trường hợp cực đoan, hậu quả có thể là tình trạng nghèo đói diện rộng.)
→ B sai
+ How effectively these risks can be addressed will increasingly be determined by how well cities are governed. (Mức độ giải quyết hiệu quả những rủi ro này sẽ ngày càng được xác định rõ bằng sự quản lý của các thành phố.)
→ D sai
+ Urbanization is by no means bad by itself. It brings important benefits for economic, cultural and societal development. (Đô thị hóa tự nó không xấu. Nó mang lại những lợi ích quan trọng cho sự phát triển kinh tế, văn hóa và xã hội.)
→ C đúng

It is not surprising that the birthplace of cola was the hot and humid American South. This region had long specialized in creating delicious soft drinks. A druggist in Atlanta, Georgia named John Pemberton created the most well–known drink brand in the world in the 1880s. However, it seems clear that he had no idea how big it would become.
Like many American pharmacists of the day, Pemberton was opposed to the drinking of alcohol and wanted to produce a stimulating soft drink. First, he made "the French Wine of Coca," made from the coca leaf. Then he began to experiment with the cola nut. Eventually, he managed to make a combination of the two that he thought was sweet, but not too sweet. Deciding that "the two C's would look well in advertising," he named it Coca–Cola.
Pemberton's invention caught on fairly quickly. By 1905, "Coke" was being advertised all over the country as "The Great Natural Temperance Drink." The drink enjoyed additional success since there was a large and popular temperance movement in the US at that time. In the 1920s, alcohol was outlawed, and sales of Coke rose significantly. However, they continued to rise even after the law was repeated.
Another reason for Coke's popularity was good business sense. A year after he invented it, Pemberton had sold Coca–Cola to Asa Griggs Candler for only $283.26! Candler was a marketing genius, and by the time he sold the Coca–Cola Company in1919, it was worth $25 million.
