Wild animals and 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.

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.

  Since water is the basis of life, composing the greater part of the tissues of all living things, the crucial problem of desert animals is to survive in a world where sources of flowing water are rare. And since man’s inexorable necessity is to absorb large quantities of water at frequent intervals, he can scarcely comprehend that many creatures of the desert pass their entire lives without a single drop.

   Uncompromising as it is, the desert has not eliminated life but only those forms unable to withstand its desiccating effects. No moist- skinned, water-loving animals can exist there. Few large animals are found. The giants of the North American desert are the deer, the coyote, and the bobcat. Since desert country is open, it holds more swift-footed running and leaping creatures than the tangled forest. Its population is largely nocturnal, silent, filled with reticence, and ruled by stealth. Yet they are not emaciated. Having adapted to their austere environment, they are as healthy as animals anywhere else in the word. The secret of their adjustment lies in the combination of behavior and physiology. None could survive if, like mad dogs and Englishmen, they went out in the midday sun; many would die in a matter of minutes. So most of them pass the burning hours asleep in cool, humid burrows underneath the ground, emerging to hunt only by night. The surface of the sun-baked desert averages around 150 degrees, but 18 inches down the temperature is only 60 degrees.

Question: Man can hardly understand why many animals live their whole life in the desert, as

A. water is an essential part of his existence

B. very few large animals are found in the desert

C. sources of flowing water are rare in a desert

D. water composes the greater part of the tissues of living things

Three-fourths of known kinds of plants and animals call the rain forest their home. Twenty percent of our different kinds of medicine come from rain forests. The glues on an envelope and in shoes come from tropical plants. Rain forests provide materials for hundreds of other products. Rain forests are also very important to the world’s climate. The Amazon rain forest alone receives about thirty to forty percent of the total rainfall on the earth and products about the same percentage of the world oxygen. Some scientists believe that the decreasing size of rain forests will affect the climate on the earth, making it uncomfortable or even dangerous for life. Saving rain forests is an international problem. One country, or even a few countries, cannot solve the problem alone. The nations of the world must work together to find a solution before it is too late. 1. What percent of the earth’s area do rain forests cover? A. Only 6 percent B. 20 percent C. less than 6 percent D. over 6 percent 2. How many known kinds of plants and animals call the rain forests their home? A. B. C. D. 3. What percent of the total rainfall on the earth does the Amazon rain forests receive? A. about 20 to 30 B. less than 30 C. exactly 30 to 40 D. about 30 to 40 4. According to some scientists, what will the decreasing size of rain forests affect on the earth? A. oxygen B. climate C. plants D. only animals 5.
