a loss of more resources and more energy For example, if a customer buys a high-quality appliance that can be easily repaired, the manufacturer receives an important message In the same way, if a customer chooses a product with less packaging, that customer sends an important message to the manufacturers To reduce garbage, the throw-away must stop The second step is to reuse It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles After customers empty the bottles, they return them to the stores The manufacturers of the drinks collect bottles, wash them, and then fill them again The energy that is necessary to make new bottles is saved In some parts of the world, returning bottles for money is a common practice In those places, the garbage dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throw-away bottles The third step being environmentally sensitive is to recycle Spent motor oil can be cleaned and used again Aluminum cans are expensive to make It takes the same amount of energy to make one aluminum can as it does to run a color TV set for three hours When people collect and recycle aluminum (for new cans), they help save one of the world’s precious resources Câu 45: Which area is considered one of the most industrialized?

A Weather variations in the desert B Adaptations of desert animals C Diseased of desert animals D Human use of desert animals Câu 56: According to the passage, why is light coloring an advantage to large desert animals? A It helps them hide from predators B It does not absorb sunlight as much as dark colors C It helps them see their young at night D It keeps them cool at night Câu 57: The word “maintaining” is closest in meaning to _ A measuring B inheriting C preserving D delaying Câu 58: The author uses of Grant’s gazelle as an example of A an animal with a low average temperature B an animal that is not as well adapted as the camel C a desert animal that can withstand high body temperatures D a desert animal with a constant body temperature Câu 59: When is the internal temperature of a large desert mammal lower? A Just before sunrise B In the middle of the day C Just after sunset D Just after drinking Câu 60: The word “tolerate” is closest in meaning to _ A endure B replace C compensate D reduce Câu 61: What causes water intoxication? A Drinking too much water very quickly B Drinking polluted water C Bacteria in water D Lack of water Câu 62: Why does the author mention humans in the second paragraph? A To show how they use camels B To contrast them to desert mammals C To give instructions about desert survival D To show how they have adapted to desert life Câu 63: The word “obtain” is closest in meaning to _ A digest B carry C save D get Câu 64: Which of the following is NOT mentioned as an adaptation of large desert animals?
