V. Read the passage and do the exercises below. 
 A.The population of the world has increased more in modern times in all other 
ages of history combined [kết hợp]. World population totaled about 500 million in 
1650. It doubled in the period from 1650 - 1850. Today the population is more 
than five billion. Estimates [tính toán] based on research by the United Nations 
indicate that it will more than double in the twenty-five years between 1915 and 
the year 2000, reaching seven billion by the turn of [vào đầu (thế kỉ)] the century. 
 B. No one knows the limits [hạn chế] of population that the earth can support. 
Thomas Malthus, an English economist, developed a theory [lý thuyết] that became 
widely accepted in the nineteenth century. He suggested that because world 
population tended [có xu hướng] to increase more rapidly than the food supply, a 
continual strain [áp lực liên tục] was exerted [tác động] upon available resources. 
Malthus cited [dẫn ra] wars, famines [nạn đói], epidemics [nạn dịch] and other disasters 
[tai họa] as the usual limitations of population growth. 
 C. With recent advances in science and technology, including improved 
agricultural methods and great strides [bước nhảy vọt] in medicine, some of the 
limiting factors in population growth have been lessened, with obvious [rõ rệt] 
results. International organizations have put forward [đề nghị] several 
recommendations [lời đề nghị] to alleviate [làm giảm sút] the problem of 
overpopulation, including an increase in food production, general economic 
development in target areas, and a decrease in birth rates. Most experts agree 
that it will be necessary to combine all three recommendations in an effort to 
affect a lasting [lâu dài] solution.
