PROGRESS TEST 1

Name : Jennifer Tesalonika Erick

Class/Attd. No.: Xi Social Studies/ Attd No 17

LISTENING
Carefully listen to the audio recording and complete the passage with the correct words you
hear. (100 points)

Narrator: It took nature 150,000 years to make the great Greenland ice sheet. Now, the
ice is melting into the sea faster than at any time in history.
Scientist: There’s something interesting inside because you can see small bubbles. And
these bubbles are older than all the living 1_ creatures in the world. And you can
listen to it… because the bubbles are all so compressed, and when they get out
it’s like popping. You can talk to the ice.
Narrator: A team of scientists led by Dr. Konrad Steffen flies into the center of Greenland
every year to do just that: listen to the ice.
In recent years, areas of the glacier that had not melted in thousands of years
have been covered in water every summer. It has locals, 2environment and
scientists very worried. Steffen thinks we may be approaching a 3critical point,
when the melting could become unstoppable. And it could happen within the
next 50 years.
Dr. Konrad Steffen: I just checked the 4Gas station and guess what!
Researcher: What?
Dr. Konrad Steffen: It is not getting older!
Researcher: Oh, why not?
Dr. Konrad Steffen: Yeah, we have record temperatures again in early January!
Narrator: Steffen and his team travel across the ice to check one of the 5_twenty-three
weather stations on the ice sheet. Each station takes a range of measurements
every 15 seconds. They feed the information into global warming computer
models all over the world.
Dr. Konrad Steffen: The ice sheet is very old. It is over 6_one hundred fifty thousand years old. If you
start to remove it, then you actually start a process that is unknown to
civilization. We have never seen Greenland disappearing.
Narrator: Steffen and his team have made an unexpected discovery, with frightening
consequences. The 7rivers of melting ice flow down into huge holes in the
glacier. These holes go all the way down to the bottom of the glacier. The water
gets under the glacier, causing it to slide slowly into the sea. It is a whole new
way in which huge quantities of ice are disappearing, even more rapidly.
Narrator: Greenland's glaciers are melting so quickly now. The melting may result in sea
levels rising three or four 8feetover the next century.
James Hansen: We are very close to the slippery slope right now. Some 9scientist already say it
is probably too late to save the Arctic. I do not agree with that, but I do think we
are very close to going to a situation where we would have no ice in the Arctic in
the warm season.
Narrator: It is a 10obvisiouscycle. Even as sea levels rise, the sea continues to absorb heat,
contributing to the ice melt. Warming causes a faster loss of ice, and the loss of
ice causes faster warming. In other words, the warmer it gets, the faster it gets
warmer. We cannot easily predict the end results, but it is looking more and
more likely that urgent action will need to be taken to solve the problem of
Greenland’s melting glaciers.

READING
The following questions refer to Text 10A and 10B of National Geographic Reading Explorer
2 (page 145 – 158). Carefully read the passage and the questions, then answer them in full
sentences. As usual, mind the spelling, capitalization, and punctuation as per needed. (100
points)

10A
1. Can global warming cause economic problem(s)? Please explain.
Yes, global warming can cause economic problem. Because millions of people in India,
Bangladesh, Bolivia (as example) who depend on water from mountain glaciers like
Chacaltaya could find themselves in critical condition. Global warming is also expected to
increase the frequency and severity of extreme weather events, bringing with it property
and infrastructure loss.
2. Can we restore/get back the ice on the mountains that has melted? Please elaborate your
answer.
No, we can’t restore/get back the ice on the mountains that has melted because water from
melting ice runs down cracka in the glacier and gets between the ice and the rock, so it
makes it easier for the glacier to slide into the warmer water.
3. How does global warming make water disappear from many places?
Global warming makes water disappear from many places by make the mountain absorb more
heat and causing the snow to melt faster. Global waring is alos making the water disappear
from other places. Global warming makes the ice sheet begins to melt. Global waring is slowly
breaking apart and filling the ocean with huge pieces of ice.
4. What do you know about Chacaltaya ski area?
Chalcaltaya ski area sits upon a small montain glacier in Bolivia and today the snow is almost
gone
5. What is probably the biggest cause of global warming?
The main cause of global warming is the greenhouse effect. Some gases in the Earth's
atmosphere act a bit like the glass in a greenhouse, trapping the sun's heat and stopping it
from leaking back into space and causing global warming.
10B
6. According to the map on page 153, where does the hunt take place?
It takes place start in Qaanaaq and also finish in Qaanaaq. It passed Siorapaluk, Kiatak,
Moriusaq, Qaanaaq.
7. How do thick ice shelves help the ice hunters live their way of living?
The thick ice shelves help the ice hunters for travel easier, they also can hunt with a good
condition. They need hunt for feed their starving dogs.
8. If/when the ice hunters could no longer keep their way of living, what should they do to adjust
themselves to survive?
If the ice hunters could no longer keep their way of living, the must go other ways to make
living. The should follow a job training program for help them to find other employment
9. What are the effects of Greenland’s thinner ice?
The effect of Greenland thinner ice are the people that live depend on that ice must have
other ways to make a living, making travel dangerous, and hunting creatures become nearly
impossible.
10. What are the opportunities that the warmer weather provides?
The opportunities that the warmer weather provides are quantities of valuable fish that prefer
warmer water are increasing, melting ice has uncovered some of Greenland’s valuable natural
resources.
