Question 16:
a, All these things together make the Earth get hotter, which causes problems like
melting ice, changing weather, and higher sea levels.
b, Another reason is cutting down trees. Trees help soak up a gas called carbon
dioxide, but when we cut them down, there aren't as many trees to do this important
job.
c, Global warming happens because people do things that make the Earth's air get
warmer.
d, Finally, farming, especially raising lots of cows and other animals, makes a gas
called methane. Industries also make gases that trap heat.
e, In short, we need to stop doing these things and find better ways to get energy to
keep the Earth from getting too warm.

When these fuels burn, let out gases that trap heat in the air, like a blanket.

Read the following passage. Mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Scientists believe they now have scientific evidence to prove that ecosystems work
better when there is a greater variety of species within them. This biodiversity is being
lost destroying natural mechanisms that could repair the damage caused by man.
Findings show that losing plants and animals is not only reducing our quality of life
but actually endangering our very existence. We cut down rich rainforests and replace
them with one species plantations, such as pine and eucalyptus. We plough up
meadows rich in different grasses and herbs and replace them with one grass, for
instance rye or wheat.
When a natural ecosystem is simplified the basic processes in the ecosystem are
altered and even damaged. Without their biodiversity, they are not able to serve as the
natural cleaners of our planet. No longer are they able to absorb the carbon dioxide
that is being produced in excess. The result is global warming, caused by the increase
in the 'greenhouse effect', and ultimately, or even sooner, there will be a change in the
world's climate.
Question 29. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. The Variety of Species. B. Natural Mechanisms.
C. How Ecosystems Work Better. D. The Loss of Biodiversity
Question 30. What is the purpose of paragraph 2?
A. To show natural mechanisms at work.
B. To give examples of the loss of biodiversity
C. To give example of variety of species.
D. To show how ecosystems can work better.
Question 31. What, according to the passage, might be the final result of the
simplification of natural ecosystems?
A. There is a loss of biodiversity B. There is global warming
C. The basic processes are altered. D. There is a change in the climate.
Question 32. The word "them" in paragraph 2 refers to______.
A. rain forest. B. Animals. C. species. D. Plants.
Question 33. As used in paragraph 3, the word "absorb" could be beat replaced
which of the following?

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 questions.
Biological diversity has become widely recognized as a critical comervation issue
only in the past two decades. The rapid destruction of the tropical rain forests, which
are the ecosystems with the highest known species diversity on Earth, has awakened
people to the importance and fragility of bielogical diversity. The high rate of species
extinctions in these environments is jolting, but it is important to recognize the
significance of biological diversity in all ecosystems. As the human population
continues to expand, it will negatively affect one after another of Earth's ecosystems.
In terrestrial ecosystems and in fringe marine ecosystems (such as wetlands), the most
common problem is habitat destruction. In most situations, the result is irreversible.
Now humans are beginning to destroy marine ecosystems through other types of
activities, such as disposal and runoff of poisonous waste; in less than two centuries,
by significantly reducing the variety of species on Earth, they have irrevocably
redirected the course of evolution.
However, nothing has ever equaled the magnitude and speed with which the human
species is altering the physical and chemical world and demolishing the environment.
In fact, there is wide agreement that it is the rate of change humans are inflicting,
even more than the changes themselves, that will lead to biological devastation. Life
on Earth has continually been in flux as slow physical and chemical changes have
occurred on Earth, but life needs time to adapt-time for migration and genetic
adaptation within existing species and time for the proliferation of new genetic
material and new species time for the proliferation of new genetic material and new
species that may be able to survive in new environments.
Question 34: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The cause of the extinction of the dinosaurs
B. The variety of species found in tropical rain forests
C. The time required for species to adapt to new environments
D. The impact of human activities on Earth's ecosystems
Question 35: The word "critical" is OPPOSITE in meaning to ______.
A. complicated B. interesting C. negative D. unessential.
Question 36: The word "it " in paragraph 1 refers to ______
A. The Earth B. The human population C. The Earth's ecosystem D. Biological
diversity
Question 37: The author mentions all of the following as examples of the effect of
humans on the world's ecosystems EXCEPT______.
A. habitat destruction in wetlands
B. the introduction of new varieties of plant species
C. damage to marrine ecosytems.
D. destruction of the tropical rain forests.
Question 38: According to the passage, natural evolutionary change is different from
changes caused by humans in that changes caused by humans______.
A. Affect fewer ecosystems. B. Are occurring at a much faster rate.
C. Are recersible. D. Are less devastating to most species.
Question 39: Which of the following can best replace "in flux"?
A. Breaking. B. Producing. C. Changing. D. Increasing.
Question 40: It can be inferred from the passage that______.
A. Human influence on ecosystems should not be a factor in determining public
policy.
B. Humans should be more conscious of the influence they have o ecosystems
C. The extinction of a few species is an acceptable consequence of human progress.
D. Technology will provide solutions to problems caused by the destruction of
ecosystems
