Egypt has more than 100 pyramids that are spread all over the country. These pyramid structures are made up of sandstone brick. The pyramids were built for the rulers of Egypt. The first pyramid that was built in Egypt was the Pyramid of Djoser during the third dynasty.

The three most well-known Egyptian pyramids are the Pyramids of Giza. These pyramids were built on the outskirts of Cairo. They are located five miles from the old city of Giza which resides on the Nile River.

These pyramids are included as one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The three are named the great pyramid of Khufu (Cheops), the pyramid of Khafre (Khafra) and the pyramid of Menkaure. The Pyramid of Khufu at Giza is the largest Egyptian pyramid ever built. The pyramid of Menkaure has three smaller pyramids that are right next to this main structure and are called the Queen’s Pyramids.

The pyramids at Giza attract great tourist attention every year. Out of all the three pyramids at Giza, only the pyramid of Khafre retains some parts of the originally polished limestone casing near its pinnacle. To the naked eye, the pyramid of Khafre looks to be the tallest, but in reality the pyramid of Khufu is the tallest of them all. Nearby, visitors can see the huge sculpture of the Great Sphinx. There are also many cemeteries and a village where the workers lived. The Pyramids of Giza are the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the World.

Environmental pollution is the status of environmental contamination by chemical, biological ... affect human health, other living organisms.Environmental pollution is caused by humans and human management.
The main types of pollution :
- Air pollution : Smoke and dust discharge chemicals into the atmosphere. Examples of toxic gases as carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, cloroflorocacbon substances (CFCs) and nitrous oxide are of industrial waste and vehicle
- Water pollution occurs when surface water flows through the domestic waste, industrial waste water, pollutants in the ground, and groundwater seepage.
- Soil pollution occurs when soil contaminated with toxic chemicals (concentrations exceed normal limits) by the activities of man as active mining, industrial production and use of chemical fertilizers Study or too much pesticide, ... or leaks from underground storage tanks. Most common types of soil contaminants are hydrocarbons, heavy metals, MTBE, herbicides, pesticides, and chlorinated hydrocarbons .
- Radioactive Pollution , Noise pollution , Light Pollution ...
Affecf :
+ For human health : Air pollution can kill many living organisms including humans. Ozone pollution can cause respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease, inflammation of the throat, chest pain, breathlessness. Water pollution causes approximately 14,000 deaths per day, mainly by eating contaminated with untreated water. Chemicals and heavy metals contamination in food and drink can cause cancer. Oil spills can cause itching blisters. Noise pollution causes hearing loss, hypertension, depression, and insomnia., causing serious consequences .
+ For ecosystem :
- Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides cause acid rain can reduce soil pH.
- Contaminated land may become barren, not suitable for crops. This will affect other living organisms in food webs.
- Smoke and fog reduce sunlight that plants receive to make the process of photosynthesis.
- Invasive species that can compete and occupied habitat for endangered native species, thus reducing biodiversity.

Ô nhiễm môi trường là tình trạng môi trường bị ô nhiễm bởi các chất hóa học, sinh học... gây ảnh hưởng đến sức khỏe con người, các cơ thể sống khác . Ô nhiễm môi trường là do con người và cách quản lý của con người.
Các dạng ô nhiễm chính :
- Ô nhiễm không khí, việc xả khói chứa bụi và các chất hóa học vào bầu không khí. Ví dụ về các khí độc là cacbon mônôxít, điôxít lưu huỳnh, các chất cloroflorocacbon (CFCs), và ôxít nitơ là chất thải của công nghiệp và xe cộ .
- Ô nhiễm nước xảy ra khi nước bề mặt chảy qua rác thải sinh hoạt, nước rác công nghiệp, các chất ô nhiễm trên mặt đất, rồi thấm xuống nước ngầm.
- Ô nhiễm đất xảy ra khi đất bị nhiễm các chất hóa học độc hại (hàm lượng vượt quá giới hạn thông thường)do các hoạt động chủ động của con người như khai thác khoáng sản, sản xuất công nghiệp, sử dụng phân bón hóa học hoặc thuốc trừ sâu quá nhiều,... hoặc do bị rò rỉ từ các thùng chứa ngầm. Phổ biến nhất trong các loại chất ô nhiễm đất là hydrocacbon, kim loại nặng, MTBE, thuốc diệt cỏ, thuốc trừ sâu, và các hydrocacbon clo hóa .
- Ô nhiễm phóng xạ , Ô nhiễm tiếng ồn , Ô nhiễm ánh sáng ...
Ảnh hưởng :
+ Đối với sức khỏe con người : Không khí ô nhiễm có thể giết chết nhiều cơ thể sống trong đó có con người. Ô nhiễm ozone có thể gây bệnh đường hô hấp, bệnh tim mạch, viêm vùng họng, đau ngực, tức thở. Ô nhiễm nước gây ra xấp xỉ 14.000 cái chết mỗi ngày, chủ yếu do ăn uống bằng nước bẩn chưa được xử lý. Các chất hóa học và kim loại nặng nhiễm trong thức ăn nước uống có thể gây ung thư. Dầu tràn có thể gây ngứa rộp da. Ô nhiễm tiếng ồn gây điếc, cao huyết áp, trầm cảm, và bệnh mất ngủ., gây nhiều hậu quả nghiêm trọng .
+ Đối với hệ sinh thái :
- Điôxít lưu huỳnh và các ôxít nitơ có thể gây mưa axít làm giảm độ pH của đất.
- Đất bị ô nhiễm có thể trở nên cằn cỗi, không thích hợp cho cây trồng. Điều này sẽ ảnh hưởng đến các cơ thể sống khác trong lưới thức ăn .
- Khói lẫn sương làm giảm ánh sáng mặt trời mà thực vật nhận được để thực hiện quá trình quang hợp .
- Các loài xâm lấn có thể cạnh tranh chiếm môi trường sống và làm nguy hại cho các loài địa phương, từ đó làm giảm đa dạng sinh học.
Khí CO2 sinh ra từ các nhà máy và các phương tiện qua lại còn làm tăng hiệu ứng nhà kính. Trái Đất ngày một nóng dần lên. Phá hủy dần các khu du lịch tự nhiên mà nó sẵn có.
Giải pháp để hạn chế ô nhiễm môi trường :
- Giảm độ mặn cho đất.
- Xử lý nước tự nhiên bị ô nhiễm.
- Làm trong sạch không khí ..

Dear ___,

I’m writing this letter to tell you that I've just returned from a trip to Ha Long Bay with my family. The sight was extremely magnificent.

It took us five or six hours by car to get there from Ha Noi. We spent more than a week there.

The weather was perfect. It was sunny, cool and windy. We enjoyed walking along the seaside at night very much.

It was really interesting when we knew about the legenda of Ha Long Bay. We really want to come back there when we have time next year.

How are you getting with your study at home? Where are you going for your holiday? Let me know.
