Wild animals (and wild plants) and the wild places where they live are seriously threatened almost everywhere. One species has become extinct in each year of this century. But many hundreds are now in danger. Lack of attention would lead to the rapid advance of the process of extinction.
Already many kinds of wild animals have been so reduced in number that their role in the ecosystem is forgotten. Animals like the great apes, the whales, seals etc. thought to be in danger of extinction.
But even more important, perhaps than individual kinds of animals and plants, whole habitats are in danger of vanishing: marshes are being drained, and the world forests, especially tropical forests are being cut down to satisfy man’s needs of timber and paper.
What would our world be like if all the wild animals and wild plants vanished? - Would our life still exist then?

Căn cứ thông tin đoạn 3, 4, 5:
One of the most dangerous and unsettling effects of deforestation is the loss of animal and plant species due to their loss of habitat; not only do we lose those known to us, but also those unknown, potentially an even greater loss. (Một trong những tác động nguy hiểm nhất và bất ổn nhất của nạn phá rừng là sự mất mát củacác loài động vật và thực vật do mất môi trường sống; chúng ta không chỉ mất những loải đã được biết đến, mà con cả những loài vẫn chưa biết, có khả năng sự mất mát còn lớn hơn nữa.)
Its removal through deforestation would allow a more drastic temperature variation from day to night, much like a desert, which could prove fatal for current inhabitants. (Việc loại bỏ vòm cây thông qua phá rừng sẽ khiến cho sự biến đối nhiệt độ mạnh hơn từ ngày sang đêm, giống như một sa mạc, có thể gây tử vong cho cư dân hiện tại.)
With fewer trees left, due to deforestation, there is less water in the air to be returned to the soil. In turn, this causes dryer soil and the inability to grow crops, an ironic twist when considered against the fact that 80% of deforestation comes from small-scale agriculture and cattle ranching. (Với ít cây còn lại, do mất rừng, sẽ có ít nước trong không khí được trả lại đất. Đổi lại, điều này khiến cho đất khô và không có
khả năng trồng trọt, một điều mỉa mai khi trong thực tế rằng 80% nạn phá rừng đến từ nông nghiệp quy mô nhỏ và chăn nuôi gia súc.)
Further effects of deforestation include soil erosion and coastal flooding. (Những ảnh hưởng xa hơn của nạn phá rừng bao gồm xói mòn đất và lũ lụt ở vùng duyên hải.)
C. Những nguyên nhân vì sao nạn phá rừng lại xảy ra thường xuyên.
D. Những giải pháp hiệu quả để xử lý nạn phá rừng trên khắp thế giới.
Căn cứ thông tin đoạn 1:
The loss of trees and other vegetation can cause climate change, desertification, soil erosion, fewer crops, flooding, increased greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and a host of problems for indigenous people. (Tình trạng mất cây và thảm thực vậtkhác có thể gây ra biến đổi khí hậu, sa mạc hóa, xói mòn đất, ít vụ mùa, lũ lụt, tăng khí nhà kính trong bầu khí quyển, và một loạt các vấn để cho người dân bản địa.)
Như vậy, đoạn văn đang thảo luận về các tác động tiêu cực của nạn phá rừng lên môi trường và con người.
