Since the world became industrialized, the number of animal species that have eitherbecome extinct or have neared extinction has increased Bengal tigers, for instance, which onceroamed the jungles in vast numbers, now number only about 2,300 By the year 2025, it isestimated that they will become extinct
What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that this extinction will have been caused almost entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested
in material gain but in personal gratification This is an example of the callousness that is
contribution to the problem of extinction Animals such as the Bengal tiger, as well as otherendangered species, are valuable parts of the world's ecosystem International laws protectingthese animals must be enacted to ensure their survival - and the survival of our planet
Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways Some
countries in an effort to circumvent the problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animal reserves They then charge admission prices to help defray the costs of maintaining the parks,
and they often must also depend on world organizations for support This money enables them toinvest in equipment and patrols to protect the animals Another response to the increase in animal
extinction is an international boycott products made from endangered species This has had some
effect, but by itself it will not prevent animals from being hunted and killed

VII/ 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 following questions
While most desert animals will drink water if confronted with it, for many of them theopportunity never comes Yet all living things have water, or they will expire The herbivores
find it in desert plants The carnivores slave their thirst with the flesh and blood of living prey.
One of the most remarkable adjustments, however, has been made by the tiny kangaroo rat, whonot only lives without drinking but subsists on a diet of dry seeds containing about 5% free water.Like other animals, he has the ability to manufacture water in his body by a metabolic conversion
of carbohydrates But he is notable for the parsimony with which he conserves his small
supply by every possible means, expending only minuscule amounts in his excreta and throughevaporation from his respiratory tract
Investigation into how the kangaroo rat can live without drinking water has involved variousexperiments with these small animals Could kangaroo rats somehow store water in their bodies andslowly utilize these resources in the long periods when no free water is available from dew orrain? The simplest way to settle this question was to determine the total water content in theanimals to see if it decreases as they are kept for long periods on a dry diet If they slowly use uptheir water, the body should become increasingly dehydrated, and if they begin with a store of water,this should be evident from an initial high water content Result of such experiments with kangaroorats on dry diets for more than 7 weeks showed that the rats maintained their bodyweight There
was no trend toward a decrease in water content during the long period of water deprivation.
Trang 8When the kangaroo rats were given free access to water, they did not drink water They did nibble
on small pieces of watermelon, but this did not change appreciably the water content in their bodies,which remained at 66.3% to 67.2% during this period
This is very close to the water content of dry-fed animals ( 66.5% ), and theavailability of free water, therefore, did not lead to any “storage” that could be meaningful as awater reserve This makes it reasonable to conclude that physiological storage of water is not afactor in the kangaroo rat’s ability to live on dry food

A. Kangaroo rats B Water in the desert C Desert life D Physiologicalexperiments

A. The economy with which it uses available water B Living without drinking water
C Breathing slowly and infrequently D Manufacturing water internally
76. The word “parsimony” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to
77. It is implied by the author that desert animals can exist with little or no water because of
A. Less need for water than other animals
B. Many opportunities for them to find water
C. Their ability to eat plants
D. Their ability to adjust to the desert environment

V/ Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer
ACID DUST
Calcite-containing dust particles blow into the air and combine with nitric acid in pollutedair from factories to form an entirely new particle-calcium nitrate These nitrates have optical and
chemical properties that are completely different from those of the originally dry dust particles.
Due to this, climate models need to be updated to reflect this chemistry Calcite dust is common
in arid areas such as Israel, where this past winter scientists collected particles for analysis
Working from a mountaintop, the team collected dust that had blown in from the northernshores of Egypt, Sinai, and southern Israel The particles had combined with air containingpollutants that came from Cairo They analyzed nearly 2,000 individual particles and observed thephysical and chemical changes at the W.R Wiley Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory
An important change in the properties of the newly formed nitrate particles is that they
absorb water and retain moisture These particles can scatter and absorb sunlight-presenting climate modelers, who need to know where the energy is going, a new wild card to deal with.
Other studies of dust samples from the Sahara and the Saudi Arabian coast and loess from Chinashow that the higher the calcium in the mineral, the more reactive they are with nitric acid Infact, once the particle is changed, it stays that way

53 Do the particles react with nitric acid?
A No, but they continue to absorb the sun’s energy B No, and the particles do not change
C Yes, but the changes are temporary D Yes, and the changes are permanent
54 Which of the following may be a result of these particles?
A The chance of an ice age is increased B We may see more rainbows
C The greenhouses effects are increased D We may see an increase in carbondioxide
55 Why does the passage begin with a description of the properties of calcium nitrate?

VI/ Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer.
Aging is the process of growing old It occurs eventually in every living thing provided, of
course, that an illness or accident does not kill it prematurely The most familiar outward signs
of aging may be seen in old people, such as the graying of the hair and the wrinkling of the skin.Signs of aging in a pet dog or cat include loss of playfulness and energy, a decline in hearing and
Trang 16eyesight, or even a slight graying of the coat Plants age too, but the signs are much harder to detect.
Most body parts grow bigger and stronger, and function more efficiently during childhood.They reach their peak at the time of maturity, or early adulthood After that, they begin to decline
Bones, for example, gradually become lighter and more brittle In the aged, the joints between the
bones also become rigid and more inflexible This can make moving very painful
All the major organs of the body show signs of aging The brain, for example, works lessefficiently, and even gets smaller in size Thinking processes of all sorts are slowed down Oldpeople often have trouble in remembering recent events
One of the most serious changes of old age occurs in the arteries, the blood vessels thatlead from the heart They become thickened and constricted, allowing less blood to flow to therest of body This condition accounts, directly or indirectly, for many of the diseases of the aged
It may, for example, result in heart attack
Aging is not a uniform process Different parts of the body wear out at different rates.
There are great differences among people in their rate of aging Even the cells of the body differ inthe way they age The majority of cells are capable of reproducing themselves many times duringthe course of a lifetime Nerve cells and muscle fibers can never be replaced once they wear out
Gerontologists - scientists who study the process of aging-believe this wearing out of thebody is controlled by a built-in biological time-clock They are trying to discover how this clockworks so that they can slow down the process This could give man a longer life and a great number
of productive years
61 What is the main idea of the first paragraph?
A Signs of aging are easier to detect in animals than in plants
B Aging occurs in every living thing after it has reached maturity
C Not all signs of aging are visible

64 When does the human body begin to lose vigor and the ability to function efficiently?
A Soon after reaching adulthood B During childhood
65 What happens to memorization when the brain begins to age?
Trang 17A It works less B It becomes forgetful C It declines D It slows down.
66 What does “aging is not a uniform process” mean?
A Not all living things age B Not all people age at the same age
C Not all people have signs of aging D Aging doesn't occur in all people
67 The word “brittle” as used in the second paragraph means
68 According to the passage, what condition is responsible for many of the diseases of the old?
A the arteries have become thickened and constricted
B the blood vessels lead from the heart
C the brain gets smaller in size
D bones become lighter and brittle

A Gerontologists have controlled the process of aging
B Gerontologists are working hard to help people live longer and more healthily
C Gerontologists are trying to give people an eternal life
D Gerontologists are now able to slow down the process of aging
