Task 1:Ask Ss to read quickly the text and choose the best title
Environmental pollution is one of the impacts of human activities on the Earth. It is also one of the
biggest problems of the world today because it brings about contamination, ecosystem, and the cause
of some diseases that most people do not know about. There are four types of pollution, namely, air
pollution, soil pollution, water pollution and noise pollution.
Most of the air pollution results from the burning of fossil fuels, motor vehicles, factories, aircraft and
rockets. This can cause acid rain which damages water, soil, and vegetation. Air pollution also
contributes to the greenhouse effect which can lead to a series of environmental problems such as
global warming, polar ice melting, rise of sea levels and loss of land.
Soil pollution is a result of dumping plastic or other inorganic waste in the ground and the overuse of
chemical fertilizers in agriculture. The long-term effects of soil pollution are contaminated vegetation
and the decrease of soil fertility.
Water pollution is a result of dumping pollutants such as detergents, pesticides, oil, and other
chemicals in rivers, which makes the water unclean or contaminated. Rubbish blockages in rivers can
also cause pollution. The effects of water pollution include the destruction of ecosystem of rivers,
lakes and the pollution of groundwater, surface water and seawater.
Noise pollution is caused by loud and annoying sounds of motor vehicles, railway, aircraft and jet
engines, factory machinery and musical instruments. It can cause stress and psychological and health
problems for humans such as increased heart rate and hearing damage.
Environmental pollution is becoming an increasingly serious problem or threat that needs to be taken
care of as soon as possible, not only for the sake of the envionment, but also for the people that live
in it.
