Read the passage carefully, then mark the letter A,B,C, or D on your answer sheet
to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions.
It is a disturbing fact that today many different kinds of wild animal throughout the
world are in danger of extinction. The reasons for this are many and varied, but we must
largely blame pollution, pesticides, the disturbance of the animals’ natural environment
and man’s greed and thoughtlessness.
Industry has grown enormously and it has become common practice for factories to
dispose of waste matter in streams and rivers, causing great loss of life. Modern
agricultural methods include the use of pesticides which effectively control insects
classified as pests, but which also destroy many that are not. An increase in population
has meant more building— and with it the destruction of much of the countryside that
provides habitat for wild animals. To satisfy man’s selfish desires the polar bear in North
America is under threat, hunted by sportsmen; in Borneo and Sumatra the orangutan has
become part of a smuggling racket; in South America the chinchilla is almost extinct
because its fur is in demand; whales are massacred world-wide for the oil and food.
These are only a few of the species under threat.
But the problem is receiving world-wide recognition, and some action is being taken.
To name a few examples - sewage pollution in the River Thames has been greatly
reduced; and a ban on trading in some furs has been agreed; and organisations like
Friends of the Earth do valuable work in this deserving cause.
39: Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a reason for animal extinction?
A. pollution B. man’s greed and thoughtlessness.
C. pesticides D. smuggling racket

A. The Global Extinction Crisis. B. Endangered Animals and their Benefits.

B. Industry has become common practice for factories to dispose of waste matter in
streams and rivers
C. Friends of the Earth is an organisation of farmers.
D. Some action is being taken to protect wildlife.
43: Why are the polar bear in North America hunted by sportsmen?
