Today I'd like to begin a discussion £n the proble m of the heating up of the earth. First we'll touch on t he relationship between fluorocarbons and the ozone layer. You probably remember that the ozone layer is the protective shield around the earth. It is important to all life, because it filters out har mful ultraviolet light from the sun. Ozone itself, a form of oxygen, is regularly made by the action o f the sun in the upper atmosphere. It is also regularly destroyed by natural chemical processes. The problem now is that too much of the ozone layer is being destroyed. Scientists suspect that certain chemicals, such as fluorocarbons, are contributing to the depletion of the ozone layer. And how do we use fluorocarbons? The most common uses are in spray cans and cooling systems. The chemical pollution from t hese fluorocarbons can account for some of the ozone losses that have been reported. There are, however, new studies linking the sun itself to the depletion of the ozone layer. We'll go into that new study more next time 61. Who is the most likely speaker? A A doctor B A mechanic C A professor D A chemist 62. What is the speaker's main topic? A Ultraviolet light. B The use of spray cans C Air-conditioning systems. D Fluorocarbons and the ozone layer. 63. What is the most important purpose of the ozone layer? A Providing fluorocarbons. B Shielding the sun. C Protecting the earth. D Destroying chemicals. 64. What is the ozone layer made of? A Fluorocarbons B O xygen C Shields D Ultraviolet light 65. What will the speaker probably discuss next ? A How to make air conditioners with fluorocarbons. B Harmful effects of ultraviolet light. C The makeup of the ozone layer. D The sun as a cause of ozone layer depletion. 2. Read the passage and choose the best answer. 3
