Read the passage and choose the best answer. The ecosystems of the earth provide an array of free public services that are essential for the support of civilizations. They maintain the quality of the atmosphere, provide food from the sea, manufacture and replenish soils, recycle wastes and nutrients, control the overwhelming majority of crop pests and disease vectors, and so on. People have no idea how to take over these activities satisfactorily. They do know, however, that the theory once advanced in the nineteenth century-that the productivity of the land can be infinitely increased by the application of capital, labour, and science-is wrong. History has shown that once the natural life –support system of a civilization have been sufficiently damaged, they can not usually be repaired. The ancient deforestation and overgrazing of the Mediterranean region is a famous example. And today, a global civilization is ruining the global environment. 41. What is the main topic of this passage? A. Free public services. B. Support needed for civilization. C. The value of ecosystems. D. The vastness of the Earth. 42. Which of the following could not be included under the “free public services” listed in the first four lines of the passage? A. Preventing overgrazing by domestic animals. B. Providing natural enemies for harmful insects. C. Creating and enriching material for plant growth. D. Supplying air for breathing. 43. The author mentions the Mediterranean region as an example of A. The ability of nature to remedy human destruction. B. The ability of people to make use of natural resources. C. The manner in which people replenish the environment. D. The effect of human abuse of natural resources 44.

C. replant the forests in the Mediterranean region. D. invent new procedures to replace obsolete ecosystems. 45.The author suggests that the difference between the ancient and modern situation is that today the problem is A. worldwide. B. better understood C. more manageable. D. economic. 3
Read the passage and choose the best answer. As far back as 700 B.C , man has talked about children being care for by wolves .
