Part 2 : Read the following passage and answer the questions.
The world's oceans are so vast that they can cope with the present levels of pollution. However, little
is known about the long-term effects of such slow poisoning. The most serious problem of modern time is
that man is destroying the earth's natural resources and transforming huge areas into waste land. As a result,
it is becoming extremely difficult to grow enough to feed the world's rapidly increasing population. A way of
protecting all wild life on the earth must also be found as many species are in danger of disappearing
completely from the face of the earth. The smoke in the atmosphere, for example, is increasing so much that
the amount of sunlight has been reduced in many cities. Man's whole environment is being changed in a
serious way.
1) What is the process of making something dirty ?
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
2) Find a word or phrase from the passage with the same meaning as the air, water and land in which
we live?

4) What could be best replaced wealth, goods or products people can use ?
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
5) What is a difficulty which needs attention and thought ?
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ..
Part 3: Read the passage and decide which is the best answer. Circle the letter A, B, C or
D next to the word you choose.
Paper is named for papyrus, a reed like plant used by ancient Egyptians as writing material
more than 5000 years ago. The Chinese invented the paper that we use 2000 years ago.
A piece of paper is really made up of tiny fibers, unlike a piece of material. The fibers used in
paper, however, are plant fibers, and there are millions of them in one sheet. In addition to the plant
fiber, dyes and additives such as resin may be used. Dyes can make the paper different colors; resin
may add weight and texture.
Where do these fibers come from ? The majority of paper is made from the plant fiber that comes
from trees. Millions are cut down, but new trees are planted in their place. Paper may be also made
from things like old rags or pieces of cloth. Wastepaper, paper that has been made and used, can be
turned into recycled paper. This recycling process saves forest, energy and reduces air and water
pollution.
1. According to the passage, the paper that we use was first invented by
A. the Chinese B. the Egyptians C. ancient cultures D. foresters
2. What is the main ingredient in most paper ?
A. resin B. cardboard C. plant fiber D. papyrus
3. According to the passage, the primary source of the plant fiber used in paper is
A. rags B. trees C. fabric D. wastepaper
4. According to the passage, recycling paper is
A. bad for the environment C. good for the environment
B. wasteful D. economical
5. According to the passage, recycling paper does all of the following EXCEPT
A. reduce the need for ink C. save energy
B. save forests D. reduce air pollution
