Exercise 1. Read the passage and choose the correct answer for each question.
Since the world became industrialized, the number of animal species that have either become extinct
or have neared extinction has increased. Bengal tigers, for instance, which once roamed the jungles in
vast numbers, now number only about 2,300. By the year 2025, it is estimated that they will become
extinct. What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that this extinction will have been caused
CH
IA
almost entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested in material gain
but in personal gratification. This is an example of the callousness that is contributing to the problem of
SẺ
extinction. Animals such as the Bengal tiger, as well as other endangered species, are valuable parts of
TÀ
the world’s ecosystem. International laws protecting these animals must be enacted to ensure their survival
I
– and the survival of our planet.
LI
Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways. Some countries, in
ỆU
an effort to circumvent the problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animal reserves. They then
-
charge admission prices to help defray the costs of maintaining the parks, and they often must also depend
LU
on world organizations for support. This money enables them to invest in equipment and patrols to protect
YỆ
the animals. Another response to the increase in animal extinction is an international boycott of
N
products made from endangered species. This has had some effect, but by itself it will not prevent
animals from being hunted and killed. TH

Exercise 2. Read the passage and choose the correct answer for each question.
IA
Humans are bringing about another global-scale change in the atmosphere: the increase in what are
called greenhouse gases. Like glass in a greenhouse, these gases admit the Sun's light but tend to reflect
SẺ
back downward the heat that is radiated from the ground below, trapping heat in the Earth's atmosphere.
TÀ
This process is known as the greenhouse effect. Carbon dioxide is the most significant of these gases –
I
there is 25 percent more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere today than there was a century ago, the result
LI
of our burning coal and fuels derived from oil. Methane, nitrous oxide, and CFCs are greenhouse gases
as well. ỆU
-
Scientists predict that increases in these gases in the atmosphere will make the Earth a warmer place.
LU
They expect a global rise in average temperature somewhere between 1.0 and 3.5 degrees Celsius in the
YỆ
next century. Average temperatures have in fact been rising and the years from 1987 to 1997 were the
N
warmest years on record. Some scientists are reluctant to say that global warming has actually begun
TH
because climate naturally varies from year to year and decade to decade, and it takes many years of records
I
to be sure of a fundamental change. There is little disagreement, though, that global warming is
TH
looming. Global warming will have different effects in different regions. A warmed world is expected to
PT
have more extreme weather, with more rain during wet periods, longer droughts, and more powerful
Qu
storms. Although the effects of future climate changes are unknown, some predict that exaggerated
ốc
weather conditions may translate into better agricultural yields in areas such as the western United States,
Gi
where temperature and rainfall are expected to increase, while dramatic decreases in rainfall may lead to
a
severe droughts and plunging agricultural yields in parts of Africa, for example. Warmer temperatures
are expected to partially melt the polar ice caps, leading to a projected sea level rise of 50 centimeters by
the year 2050. A sea level rise of this magnitude would flood coastal cities, force people to abandon
lowlying islands, and completely inundate coastal wetlands. Diseases like malaria, which at present are
primarily found in the tropics, may become more common in the regions of the globe between the tropics
and the polar regions, called the temperate zones. For many of the world's plant species, and for animal
species that are not easily able to shift their territories as their habitat grows warmer, climate change may
bring extinction.
Question 1. Which of the following could be the best title of the passage?
A. Global Warming: Problems and Solution
B. Global Warming: Advantages and Disadvantages
C. Global Warming: Future Reactions
D. Global Warming: Possible Causes and Effects
