answer to each of the questions from 47 to 55

Butterflies are among the most extensively studied insects-an estimated 90 percent of the world's species have scientific names As a consequence, they are perhaps the best group of insects for examining patterns of terrestrial biotic

diversity and distribution Butterflies also have a favorable image with the general public Hence, they are an excellent group for communicating information on science and conservation issues such as diversity

Perhaps the aspect of butterfly diversity that has received the most attention over the past century is the striking difference in

species richness between tropical and temperate regions

For example, in 1875 one biologist pointed out the diversity of butterflies in the Amazon when he mentioned that about 700 species were found within an hour's walk, whereas the total number found on the British islands did not exceed 66, and the whole of Europe supported only 321 This early comparison of tropical and temperate butterfly richness has been well

confirmed

A general theory of diversity would have to predict not only this difference between temperate and tropical zones, but also patterns within each region, and how these patterns vary among different animal and plant groups However, for butterflies, variation of species richness within temperate or tropical regions, rather man between them, is poorly understood Indeed,

comparisons of numbers of species among the Amazon basin, tropical Asia, and Africa are still mostly "personal

communication" citations, even for vertebrates, In other words, unlike comparison between temperate and tropical areas, these patterns are still in the documentation phase

In documenting geographical variation in butterfly diversity, some arbitrary, practical decisions are made Diversity, number of species, and species richness are used synonymously; little is known about the evenness of butterfly distribution The New

VIII 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 from 67 to 75

Butterflies are among the most extensively studied insects-an estimated 90 percent of the world's species have scientific names As a consequence, they are perhaps the best group of insects for examining patterns of terrestrial biotic

diversity and distribution Butterflies also have a favorable image with the general public Hence, they are an excellent group for communicating information on science and conservation issues such as diversity

Perhaps the aspect of butterfly diversity that has received the most attention over the past century is the striking difference in

species richness between tropical and temperate regions

For example, in 1875 one biologist pointed out the diversity of butterflies in the Amazon when he mentioned that about 700 species were found within an hour's walk, whereas the total number found on the British islands did not exceed 66, and the whole of Europe supported only 321 This early comparison of tropical and temperate butterfly richness has been well

confirmed

A general theory of diversity would have to predict not only this difference between temperate and tropical zones, but also patterns within each region, and how these patterns vary among different animal and plant groups However, for butterflies, variation of species richness within temperate or tropical regions, rather man between them, is poorly understood Indeed,

comparisons of numbers of species among the Amazon basin, tropical Asia, and Africa are still mostly "personal

communication" citations, even for vertebrates, In other words, unlike comparison between temperate and tropical areas, these patterns are still in the documentation phase

In documenting geographical variation in butterfly diversity, some arbitrary, practical decisions are made Diversity, number of species, and species richness are used synonymously; little is known about the evenness of butterfly distribution The New World butterflies make up the preponderance of examples because they are the most familiar species It is hoped that by

focusing on them, the errors generated by imperfect and incomplete taxonomy will be minimized

Question 67 All of the followings are mentioned as being important parts of a general theory of diversity EXCEPT…

A differences between temperate and tropical zones

Trang 18

B migration among temperate and tropical zones

C variation of patterns of distribution of species among different animals and plants

D patterns of distribution of species in each region

Question 68 The author mentions tropical Asia in lines 16-17 as an example of a location where……

A a general theory of butterfly diversity has not yet been firmly established

B butterfly behavior varies with climate

C butterflies are affected by human populations

D documenting plant species is more difficult than documenting butterfly species

Question 69 The word "striking" in line 7 is closest in meaning to………

Question 70 Butterflies are a good example for communicating information about conservation issues because

they………

A are simple in structure B are viewed positively by people

C are found mainly in temperate climates D have been given scientific names

V 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 from 48 to 56

Butterflies are among the most extensively studied insects-an estimated 90 percent of the world's species have scientific names As a consequence, they are perhaps the best group of insects for examining patterns of terrestrial biotic

diversity and distribution Butterflies also have a favorable image with the general public Hence, they are an excellent group for communicating information on science and conservation issues such as diversity

Perhaps the aspect of butterfly diversity that has received the most attention over the past century is the striking difference in

species richness between tropical and temperate regions

For example, in 1875 one biologist pointed out the diversity of butterflies in the Amazon when he mentioned that about 700 species were found within an hour's walk, whereas the total number found on the British islands did not exceed 66, and the whole of Europe supported only 321 This early comparison of tropical and temperate butterfly richness has been well

confirmed

A general theory of diversity would have to predict not only this difference between temperate and tropical zones, but also patterns within each region, and how these patterns vary among different animal and plant groups However, for butterflies, variation of species richness within temperate or tropical regions, rather man between them, is poorly understood Indeed,

comparisons of numbers of species among the Amazon basin, tropical Asia, and Africa are still mostly "personal

communication" citations, even for vertebrates, In other words, unlike comparison between temperate and tropical areas, these patterns are still in the documentation phase

In documenting geographical variation in butterfly diversity, some arbitrary, practical decisions are made Diversity, number of species, and species richness are used synonymously; little is known about the evenness of butterfly distribution The New World butterflies make up the preponderance of examples because they are the most familiar species It is hoped that by

focusing on them, the errors generated by imperfect and incomplete taxonomy will be minimized
