IV. READING
Read the passage and decide whether the sentences are True (T) or False (F).
RAINFORESTS
Rainforests are the lungs of the planet -storing vast quantities of carbon dioxide and
producing a significant amount of the world's oxygen. Rainforests have their own perfect system
for ensuring their own survival; the tall trees make a canopy of branches and leaves which protect
themselves, smaller plants, and the forest animals from heavy rain, intense dry heat from the sun
and strong winds.
They are not called rainforests for nothing! Rainforests can generate 75% of their own rain.
At least 80 inches of rain a year is normal -and in some areas there may be as much as 430 inches
of rain annually.-This is real rain -your umbrella may protect you in a shower, but it won't keep
you dry if there is a full rainstorm. In just two hours, streams can rise ten to twenty feet. The
humidity of large rainforests contributes to the formation of rainclouds that may travel to other
countries in need of rain.
