Task 4. Read the following passage and decide whether each of the
statements is TRUE or FALSE. (1,0 point)
Never before has the world been facing so many problems. The
first problem is overpopulation. Despite different plans to control the
population, it has risen continually. The problem of overpopulation is the
cause of other problems the world deals with. More people need more
energy. That leads to the present-day energy crisis. Another problem is
pollution. Mankind has destroyed the environment with their activities. Since
the Industrial Revolution, environmental destruction has got worse and
worse: disappearing forests, rising sea levels, melting pole ice and polluted
air. During the lockdown of Covid-19 in early 2020, many countries had better
air quality because people stopped using cars and factories stopped
working. Humans are responsible for all the world's problems.
Statements
21. The passage mentions three main problems the world is facing.
22. Humans have done nothing to stop the population growth.
23. The energy crisis is now over.
24. The environment was better before the Industrial Revolution than
now.
25. The writer thinks humans cause their own problems.
