Choose the best answer. Our growing need for food, goods and energy has had many harmful effects on the environment. Gases produced by cars, power stations and factories cause acid rain, which kills trees and damages buildings. By using more environmentally – friendly forms of transport, we help reduce this form of pollution. A layer of carbon dioxide and other gases traps heat and keeps the earth at the right temperature. This is called the Greenhouse effect. By burning fossil fuels we are producing too much carbon dioxide, which is causing temperatures to rise gradually. This global warming could lead to dramatic changes in climate. A layer of a gas called zone protects the earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation. Certain chemicals used in chemistry, such as CFCs, have caused a hole to develop in the ozone layer. The increased levels of ultraviolet radiation damage plants and sea life, and increase the risk of skin cancer. Most of the energy we use to heat and light buildings, run machines, etc. is made by burning fossil fuels. This will eventually run out, so we need to use more alternative sources of energy, such as mind and solar power that are renewable and do not pollute the air. We should also avoid wasting energy by using less electricity and water and insulting our houses. We are destroying our forests, which produce oxygen and provide habitats for animals and birds. Deforestation also allows rain to wash away the soil, making the land useless for growing things. We pollute water by dumping waste from factories and houses, and by accidentally spilling chemicals and oil. Chemical fertilizers damage rivers and lakes by causing a layer of tiny plants, called algae, to cover the surface of the water. Organic farming does not harm the water supply. Burying rubbish in landfills can let harmful chemicals leak through the ground into rivers, and it uses a lot of land. Burning rubbish adds to global warming. By sorting out rubbish for recycling, we can cut down on waste. Question 36: The passage is mainly about………………… A. Man and Nature B. How we should use the exciting sources of energy C. Environmental problems D. Rubbish recycling Question 37: Acid rain is caused by……………………. A. gases emitted from car exhausts and factories B. the burning of rubbish C. the burying of rubbish D. ultraviolet radiation Question 38: Skin cancer may be caused by………… A. the global warming B. acid rain C. air pollution D. ultraviolet radiation Question 39: We should use more alternative sources of energy, such as wind and solar power because they……………… A. are cheaper B. will not run out and do not pollute the air C. are easier to get D. can be recycled Question 40: If we destroy forests, ……………… A. animals and birds will have no place to live B. rivers and lakes will be polluted C. wildlife and farming will be affected D. Our food supply will run out Part IV: Gap filling Read the passage carefully and choose the word (A, B, C or D) that best fits the blank space.
