IV READING
The planet Earth is 4,600 million years old It is difficult for us to think about such an enormous length of time because
it has little meaning for us We can, however, simplify the idea to make it more understandable We can compare the planet Earth to a person of forty-six years of age
Nothing is known about the first seven years of this person’s life Very little information exists about the middle period either It was only at the age of forty-two that the Earth began to flower
Dinosaurs and great reptiles did not appear until one year ago, when the planet was forty-five Mammals only arrived eight months ago In the middle of last week, man-like apes became apelike men and began to communicate with each other Last weekend, the Ice Age covered the Earth
Modern man has only been around for four hours During the last hour man discovered agriculture The Industrial Revolution and the rise of large cities began just sixty seconds ago
During that short time, modern man has made a rubbish tip of the Earth In one minute, he has increased his numbers to terrible proportions, and has caused the death of hundreds of species of animals He has robbed and destroyed the planet
in his search for fuels Now he stands, like a violent, spoilt child, delighted at the speed of his rise to power, on the edge
of the final mass destruction and of killing all the life which exists in the solar system
29 The passage tells us that………
A a great deal is known about how the Earth was created
B scientists are well- informed about the middle part of the Earth’s life
C more is known about the first part of the Earth’s life than the middle part
D life on Earth began relatively recently
30 We are informed by the author that………
A the dinosaurs appeared during the middle period B mammals and great reptiles both appeared at the same time
C ape-like men appeared before the last ice Age D there were more than forty -five kinds of great reptiles
31 The author is mainly interested in………
A the effects of farming B what has happened since the Industrial Revolution
C the time when man first evolved from apes D the period before the last Ice Age
32 It would appear that the main danger ahead is that………
A there will be a population explosion B man will destroy everything on Earth
C man will use up all the fuels D more species of animal may die out
33 The author’s general view of man seems to be that………
A he has been the most successful animal C he has no right to be so destructive
C he has learned a lot from past mistakes D he will be able to control the environment
