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.

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 forests B. Animals C. species D. Plants

A. draw back B. pay back C. take in D. get rid of
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 conservation 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 biological 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
Phuong Uyen (032 587 2175)

environments.
