A striking feature of Viet Nam’s remarkable progress over the last few decades is the rapid pace of urbanization. In 1986, there were fewer than there are 13 million urban residents. Today there are 30 million. Cities have become strong growth forces, with urban areas growing twice as fast as the national average rate, and contributing over half of the country’s gross domestic product.

Viet Nam needs to reshape its urbanization process to create more efficient cities - cities that have sufficient population densities are well connected internally and regionally, and well managed. In addition, in line with Viet Nam's strong preference for social equity, cities will need to ensure inclusion of all residents, with no groups or area “left behind."

Meanwhile, rural residents increasingly lag behind their urban counterparts in income and access to services, leading many to migrate to cities. Migration presents challenges for urban management but also opportunities to enhance labor mobility. Fortunately, these trends can be reversed.

For example, four years ago, Alley 76 in Binh Thanh district, Ho Chi Minh City was only narrow enough for one motorbike to get through. Store owner Bui Thi Mai knows how a clean and efficient city can make or break a business. When it rained, the alley was often flooded with floating garbage and mosquitoes. Crime was increasing. Today, after undergoing major upgrading under an urban renewal project, the street is cleaner, safer and trucks carry goods to her door. Her family income has soared and her life has been completely changed.

Urbanization in Viet Nam has ___________.

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

In 1900, just 13 per cent of the world's people lived in cities. In 2008, the number passed 50 per cent for the first time in history. By 2050, the number will be about 70 per cent. The urban population in Asia and Africa will double, and there will be nearly 30 ‘megacities' – cities with more than 10 million people. So what will life be like for people in the cities of the future? Professor of human geography Ben Rhodes describes his vision of the urban world in 2050.

Life in cities will be very different from how it is today. Energy, especially oil, will be very expensive, so many people will probably work at home, or have their work places close to where they live. There will be less traffic on the roads, and it will be easier for people to be close to their families. For these reasons, cities won't have just one centre where everyone goes to work and shop. Instead, we'll probably see cities with many different centres.

It will be difficult to provide enough water, gas and electricity for really big cities, so these will probably stop growing. Many people from the countryside will move to smaller cities of 500,000 people or less. Transport over long distances will be a lot more expensive than it is now, so people will have to use food and energy from the countryside around their cities. They will use local materials for building, and perhaps traditional styles of architecture too.

The thing I really worry about is that energy may become too expensive for many people. In the end we might have two groups of people: a rich group which can afford energy and lives in clean, green areas, and a bigger, poorer group which can't afford energy and has to live in the more polluted parts of the city. This might lead to serious political problems.

By 2050, 70% of the population will live ___________.

Some of the biggest cities are losing population because people go back to live in rural areas, which is known as urbanization.

____________ pollutants in the air cannot be seen with our naked eyes, we don’t realize the sources of the increasing pollution level.
