A. second 2. A. subjects 3. A. mathematician B. mathematics 4. A. choose 5. A. On Rainforests circle the globe for twenty degrees of latitude on both sides of the equator. In that relatively narrow band of the planet, more than half of all the species of plants and animals in the world make their home. Several hundred different varieties of trees may grow in a single acre, and just one of those trees may be the habitat for more than ten thousands kinds of spiders, ants, and other insects. More species of amphibians, birds, insects, mammals, and reptiles live in rainforests than anywhere else on earth. Unfortunately, half of the world’s rainforests have already been destroyed, and at the current rate, another 25 percent will be lost by the year 2010. Scientists estimate that as many as fifty million acres are destroyed annually. In other words, every sixty seconds, one hundred acres of rainforest is being cleared. When this happens, constant rains erode the former forest floor, the thin layer of soil no longer supports plant life, and the ecology of the region is altered forever. Thousands of species of plants and animals are condemned to extinct and since we aren’t able to predict the ramifications of this loss to a delicate global ecology, we don’t know what we may be doing to the future of the human species as well. 1.What is the point of view that the author expresses in this passage ? A. The author believes that the rainforest will survive. B. The author believes that preserving the rainforest is important to the global ecology. C. The author believes that he can predict the future of global ecology. D. The author believes that the extinction of species is a natural process. 2.According to the passage, more than half of all the species of plants and animals_______ A. live in twenty rainforest. C. Live in a fortydegree band of latitude. 3.How many of the world’s rainforests are projected to be destroyed by the year 2010 if the current rate continues ? A. All of them will be gone. C. Half of them will be gone. 4.The word “this” in line 10 refers to _____ A. the destruction of the acres. C. the erosion of the forest floor. 5. What will not happen if the rainforest continues to be cleared ? A. The land will be eroded by the rains. B. Many species of plants and animals that depend on the rainforest will become extinct. C. The future of the human species may be changed. D. The rainforest will grow, but at a much slower rate.

In 1988, for the first time in British history, a National Curriculum was introduced. The National Curriculum tells pupils which subjects they have to study, what they must learn and when they have to take assessment tests. Between the ages of 14 and 16, pupils study for their GCSE (General Certificate of Secondary Education) exams. Pupils must take English Language, Maths and Science for GCSE, as well as a half GCSE in a foreign language and Technology. In addition, they must also be taught Physical Education, Religious Education and Sex Education, although they do not take exams in these subjects.

At the age of 16, pupils can leave school. If pupils stay on, they usually take A (Advanced) levels, AS (Advanced Supplementary) level or GNVQs (Greater National Vocational Qualifications). It is quite common to combine, for example, two A levels with one AS level, or one A level with one GNVQ. Pupils taking A levels study traditional subjects, such as French, Physics or History. To go to university, pupils usually need two or three A levels. AS levels are the same standard as A levels, but only half of the content: AS level German pupils take the A level German language exam, but do not take the Alevel German Literature exam. GNVQs are vocational qualifications. Pupils usually take on GNVQ in subjects such as Business, Leisure and Tourism, Manufacturing, and Art and Design. One GVNQ (at advanced level) is equal to two A levels. .
