ENDANGERED SPECIES
        Today, some type of animals are an endangered species. This means there are very few animals of that
kind left on Earth. The animals could face extinction. Extinction is when all the animals of that kind die. When
a type of animal is extinct, it is gone forever.
        One problem for animals is that their habitat is sometimes destroyed by humans. As human populations

homes and businesses. Swamps are filled in so that neighborhoods can expand.
        The habitat is destroyed. The animals have nowhere else to go. Without a habitat, the number of animals

        The equator is the main line of latitude that circles Earth. It is the same distance from the North Pole as it
is from the South Pole. The equator is the starting point for measuring degrees of latitude. Each line of latitude
is marked with a number that says how many degrees north or south of the equator it is.
        The prime meridian is the main line of longitude that circles Earth. It is the starting point for measuring
lines of longitude. Each line of longitude is marked with a number that says how many degrees east or west of
the prime meridian it is. You can accurately identify absolute, or exact, locations on Earth. You determine the
degrees that identify the latitude and longitude lines that cross closest to your location.

        Another way to identify your exact location is to use lines of latitude and longitude. They are both
imaginary lines that circle around Earth. Lines of latitude circle the Earth running east and west. Lines of
longitude circle the Earth running north and south. Together, these lines form squares. It's like the lines you see
on graph paper. If you look closely on most maps, you will see this graph paper printed on top of the map. If
you look even closer, you will see numbers written by the lines.
These numbers help to give addresses to places on Earth. Toe address for each place is known as its absolute
location

control. They did not want to pay high taxes. They did not want to follow rules that didn't make sense to them.

RAINFORESTS
        Rainforests are the lungs of the planet -storing vast quantities of carbon dioxide and producing a
significant amount of the world's oxygen. Rainforests have their own perfect system for ensuring their own
survival; the tall trees make a canopy of branches and leaves which protect themselves, smaller plants, and the
forest animals from heavy rain, intense dry heat from the sun and strong winds.
        They are not called rainforests for nothing! Rainforests can generate 75% of their own rain. At least 80
inches of rain a year is normal -and in some areas there may be as much as 430 inches of rain annually.-This is
real rain -your umbrella may protect you in a shower, but it won't keep you dry if there is a full rainstorm. In
just two hours, streams can rise ten to twenty feet. The humidity of large rainforests contributes to the formation
of rainclouds that may travel to other countries in need of rain.

something about my bedroom. Minimalism is a style of living where you only keep the most important items
and you throw away everything else. I started by throwing away a lot of the things which I didn't use. Although

temperature, and the windows will close automatically when it's hot outside. Secondly, hot shower is usually a
great start to the day, but this will be no normal shower. It will use rain water collected from the roof and heated
by solar energy, or heat from the sun. Thirdly, the house will be a self-cleaning house. When you go are not at
home, a system will recognize which place needs to be cleaned and do the cleaning. This house will be built
and sold for those who are caring about the environment.

        My bedroom is often very messy. So after I read about minimalism in a magazine, I decided to do
something about my bedroom. Minimalism is a style of living where you only keep the most important items
and you throw away everything else. I started by throwing away a lot of the things which I didn't use. Although
it was quite difficult at first, I collected bags of clothes to give to charity. I sold some of my CDs and books
online and other things I think I won't need. After cleaning up cupboards, drawers and shelves, it actually
became quite exciting to get things out of my room and create some fresh space. My room became larger and
cleaner, I'm no longer stepping on things on the floor. I also feel a bit better, too.

As children, we can do many things to save fresh water. Firstly, you can save showers rather than baths. Short
showers use less water and also there is less use of energy to heat the water. However not keeping yourself
clean is NOT an option. Secondly, clean your teeth by putting water into a glass. Use the water for wetting your
toothbrush, rinsing your mouth and cleaning, your brush. You can also help your family save water by using a
watering can to water plants and vegetables in the garden rather than using a hose. Maybe you could help
recycle the water from the washing machine. And you can help your school save water by switching off taps
properly and using the water fountain for drinking water.

below.
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle - three great ways YOU can eliminate waste and protect your environment!
Recycle - don't just toss everything in the trash. Lots of things (like cans, bottles, paper, and cardboard) can
be remade into either the same kind of thing or new products. Making new items from recycled ones also takes
less energy and fewer resources than making products from brand new materials.
Reduce - to make something smaller or use less, resulting in a smaller amount of Waste. You can practice
reduction by buying less and using less.
Reuse - You can "reuse" every day! When you use things like plastic cups, plates, and plastic food storage
bags, don't throw them away! Wash and reuse them-most of them will last for a long time with many uses.
Practicing all three of these activities every day is not only important for a healthy environment, but it can
also be fun too.

IV. READING
Read the passage and decide whether the sentences are True (T) or False (F).
As children, we can do many things to save fresh water. Firstly, you can save showers rather than baths. Short
showers use less water and also there is less use of energy to heat the water. However not keeping yourself
clean is NOT an option. Secondly, clean your teeth by putting water into a glass. Use the water for wetting your
toothbrush, rinsing your mouth and cleaning, your brush. You can also help your family save water by using a
watering can to water plants and vegetables in the garden rather than using a hose. Maybe you could help
recycle the water from the washing machine. And you can help your school save water by switching off taps
properly and using the water fountain for drinking water.
