A The coming of another ice age B The climate of the Earth over the years C Man's effect on the carbon dioxide level in the atmosphere D The possibility that the popular ice caps will melt Pro S.A.T – Giải pháp tồn diện cho kì thi THPTQG MOON.VN – Học để khẳng định Khóa học: PRO S.A.T Tiếng Anh – Cô Vũ Mai Phương www.facebook.com/covumaiphuong Question 32 According to the passage, carbon dioxide is stored in each of the following EXCEPT A sedimentary rocks B polar ice caps C rain forests D fossil fuel Question 33 According to the passage, what is the relationship between carbon dioxide and the Earth's climate? A An increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide results in the warming of the climate B The greenhouse effect, which leads to the warming of the climate, is result of too much carbon stored in the Earth's crust C Rain causes carbon dioxide to be washed out of the atmosphere and into the ocean D Carbon dioxide, which is trapped in glacial ice, is released when warm temperatures cause the ice melt Question 34 Which of the following does the author NOT mention as a consequence of a large rise in global sea level? A A more diverse marine population B Severe storms C The destruction of wetlands D The flooding of cities Question 35 The word “this” in the third paragraph refers to A man's upsetting the equation B a volcanic eruption C the melting of the polar ice caps D the reduction of carbon dioxide level Question 36 The word “inhospitable” is closest in meaning to A cruel B uninhabitable C unlikable D imperfect Question 37 What does the final paragraph of the passage mainly discuss?
