Task 1. Read the following text and answer the questions by choosing the option A, B, C or D.
Nowadays people are more aware that wildlife all over the world is in danger.
Many species of animals are threatened, and could easily become extinct if we do not
make an effort to protect them. There are many reason for this. In some cases, animals
are hunted for their fur or for other valuable pasts of their bodies. Some birds, such as
parrots, are caught alive, and sold as pets. For many animals and birds, the problem is
that their habitat – the place where they live – is disappearing. More land is used for
farms, for houses or industry, and there are fewer open spaces than there once were.
Farmers use powerful chemicals to help them grow better crops, but these chemicals
polluter the environment and harm the wildlife. The most successful animals on earth
– human beings – will soon be the only ones left, unless we can solve this problem.
1. What does the word extinct in line 2 mean?
A. dead B. no longer in existence
C. not in a place because of illness
D. suffering from a mental or physical handicap
2. The word this in line 3 refers to
A. wildlife B. danger
C. the fact that people are more aware that wildlife is in danger
D. the fact that many species of animals could easily become extinct
3. According to the passage, one of the reasons that people hunt animals is
A. They want their fur or other valuable parts of their bodies
B. they want to kill them
C. they consider this a sport D. they want to sell them as pets
4. Which of the following is not true?
A. Human beings are the most successful animals on earth
B. If we can solve the problem, we will soon be the only ones left
C. Farmers use chemicals in order to grow better crops
D. Chemicals pollute the environment
5. What can be the best title of the passage?
A. Birds are in danger B. the threat to the environment

Tapescript:
DISAPPEARING ACTS
At the moment, the world is losing species of wildlife almost every day. The two
main causes of this decline are the destruction of their habitants and overpopulation by
human beings.
Every minute of the day, 20 hectares of tropical rainforest are cut down or burned.
Hundreds of wild species – insects and plants – are lost as a result. If it goes on,
rainforests could disappear in 50 years’ time. They are vital in keeping the Earth’s
climate and environment stable. If they are destroyed, mankind will suffer as well as
wildlife.
As cities grow and industry develops around them, pollution becomes another
problem for wildlife. Friends of earth believe that two-thirds of the world’s population
will be living in urban areas by the year 2025.
Something must be done!
In theory, most countries agree that there should be no trade in endangered species.
Ninety-five countries have signed the Convention on International Trade in
Endangered Species of Wild life and Fauna and Flora. The Conventions aims to forbid
trade in endangered species and to limit trade in any species whose population is
declining fast.
However, in reality trade in endangered species is still big business. People can buy
fur coats made from the fur of jaguars, snow leopards and other cats facing extinction.
Task 1. Read the following text and answer the questions by choosing the option A, B, C or D.
