[DTNT] 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.
Sylvia Earle is an underwater explorer and marine biologist, who was born in the USA in 1935. She became
interested in the world's oceans from an early age. As a child, she liked to stand on the beach for hours
and look at the sea, wondering that it must be like under the surface. When she was 16, she finally got a
chance to make her first dive. It was this dive that inspired her to become an underwater explorer. Since
then, she has spent more than 6,500 hours under water, and has led more than seventy expeditions
worldwide. She has also made the deepest dive ever, reaching a record-breaking depth of 381 meters.
In 1970, she became famous around the world when she became the captain of the first all-female team to
live under water. The team spent two weeks in an underwater "house". The research they carried out
showed the damage that pollution was causing to marine life, and specially to coral reefs. Since then she
has written several books and magazine articles in which she suggests ways of reducing the damage that is
being done to the world's oceans. One way, she believes, is to rely on fish farms for seafood, and reduce
the amount of fishing that is done the out at sea.

[HH] 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.
Amphibians are an animal group that includes frogs, toads, salamanders, and newts. These animals live in
and out of the water. The number of amphibians on our planet is declining rapidly in both local mass
extinctions and population crashes. This is a cause for concern as many scientists believe that humans are
responsible.
Since the 1980s, scientists have noticed a decline in amphibian populations. Although many animals are
affected by humans, amphibians have been hit particularly hard. Some scientists believe this is because of
their two-stage life cycle. Unlike most animals, amphibians live their lives in two distinct stages. The first is
aquatic and the second is terrestrial. This means amphibians are sensitive to environmental changes in the
water and on land. They also have permeable skin, which means that toxins and chemicals can easily get
into their bodies.
At first, some scientists did not believe that human pollution was the cause for changes in amphibian
populations. These scientists believed that every species on Earth goes through natural cycles and changes
and that there was not enough long-term data to prove that humans were the problem. In recent years,
this has changed. Almost all biologists are concerned about the decline in amphibian populations. They are
worried not only because many amphibians may go extinct, but also because these extinctions
will affect other plants and animals in ecosystems. They believe that the decline in amphibian populations
is a warning to humans to stop polluting and clean up Earth.
