Read the passage and choose the correct answers:
Trang 8Scientists often divide resources into two groups: renewable and non– renewable When a resource is used, it takes some times to replace it If the resource can be replaced quickly and easily, it is called renewable If it cannot be replaced quickly and easily, it is non-renewable All fossil fuels are non-renewable resources Solar energy, air, and water are usually called renewable because there is an unlimited supply
However, this definition may change if people are not careful with these resources The amount of solar energy that reaches the earth depends on the atmosphere If the atmosphere is polluted, the solar energy that reaches the earth may be dangerous If humans continue to pollute the air, it will not contain the correct amounts of these gases
Many resources are limited and non- renewable, and many are in danger of pollution As a consequence, resources must be conserved and the environment protected Conservation must become an important part of everyone’s life
