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.
The Amazon rainforest is home to more than a third of all the world's species of plants,
birds and animals. Twenty per cent of all the birds in the world live in the rainforest. Scientists
have discovered thousands of types of plants and animals that can only be found there. There
are thousands - probably millions more that we haven't discovered yet. There are at least 2.5
million species of insects there. Imagine what would happen if they all lost their home? It
couldn't happen, could it? Unfortunately, it's happening right now. Yet, the rainforest is big. But
it's getting smaller. The problem is that people are cutting down the trees, mainly to make room
for cows. These provide meat and make money for their owners. This process of cutting down
trees is called ‘deforestation'.
The good news is that it is slowing down. In 2004, for example, more than 27,000 square
kilometres were cut down. That's an area bigger than Wales. In 2006, because of all the
campaigns to save rainforest, it dropped to just over 13,000 square kilometres. The bad news is
that it's not enough. Scientists predict that by 2030, the rainforest will have become smaller by
40%. It's possible that by the end of the 21st century, the rainforest will have completely
disappeared. With deforestation, thousands of the animals, birds, fish and plants that live in the
Amazon rainforest lose their home, their natural habitat. Some of them move to other areas, but
most of them die. Many species have already become extinct, and many more will if
deforestation continues. That will change the balance of life in the rainforest and could cause
enormous problems to the region's ecosystem.
There's another problem too. Trees and plants are a vital source of oxygen. If we cut them
down, we lose that oxygen. But it's worse than just that. With deforestation, the trees and plants
Page 4/4 Code 123
are burnt. This sends gases into the Earth's atmosphere, which stops some of the Earth's heat
escaping. That then leads to the temperature here on the ground going up. This increase in the
world's temperature is called 'global warming', and most scientists believe it's a very serious
issue. If they stopped deforestation, it might help prevent global warming.
Question 31. Which title best summarises the main idea of the passage?
A. Chances for owners of cow ranches B. Threats to Amazon rainforest
C. Global warming effects D. Habitat destruction
Question 32. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A. A fifth of all the birds in the world live in the rainforest.
B. 20% of all the animals in the world live in the rainforest.
C. Nearly two million species of insects are found in the Amazon rainforest.
D. Nearly half of the world's species of plants grow there.
Question 33. In paragraph 2, the word "it” refers to ____.
A. room B. process C. rainforest D. deforestation
Question 34. According the passage, which of the following is TRUE about Amazon rainforest?
A. It has become smaller by 40%. B. The deforestation is decreasing.
C. 25% of animal species are extinct now. D. The deforestation is under control.

A. serious B. important C. common D. insignificant
