Not all dinosaurs were just big reptiles For years, scientists thought dinosaurs were big, dumb, and cold blooded - in other words, just giant reptiles Some dinosaurs were huge But many were about the size of modern-day birds or dogs.Were dinosaurs warm- or cold blooded? Paleontologists are not sure But they believe some were intelligent Of course, no dinosaur was as smart as a human or even a monkey However, some smaller dinosaurs - like the two-meter (six-foot) Troodon - had fairly large brains Was Tyrannosaurus rex a powerful predator? Some scientists think the opposite is true In the movies, T.rex is often a speedy giant, but in fact, this dinosaur could not run very fast Physically, Trang 2/6 it was too large In reality, T.rex probably moved as fast as an elephant Also, T rex had very small arms Without strong legs or arms, this dinosaur probably wasn't a powerful hunter It may have been a scavenger instead, only eating animals that were already dead Did an asteroid kill the dinosaurs? An asteroid hit Mexico's Yucantan Peninsula about 65 million years ago It created a 180-kilometer (110-mile) wide crater called Chicxulub Many believe this asteroid caused the extinction of the dinosaurs But even before this, dinosaurs were already dying out around the world, for many reasons At the end of the Cretaceous period, for example, the global climate was changing and Earth's temperature was getting colder Dinosaurs completely disappeared about 65 million years ago However, scientists believe modern-day birds are descendants of certain dinosaurs If this true, then dinosaurs' relatives are still walking - and flying - among us!

The problem is that Alaska’s glaciers are melting The state has more than 100,000 glaciers These glaciers account for about 75,000 square kilometers, or five percent, of the state’s area That is an area of land larger than Ireland! According to a recent report by the US Geological Survey, ninety-nine percent of Alaska’s glaciers are either retreating or diminishing This diminishing seems mainly due to the increase in global temperatures Since the 1960s, the average year-round temperature has increased by almost 3°C Additionally, the average winter temperature has increased by over 6°C Presently, an estimated 100 cubic kilometers of ice is disappearing from Alaskan glaciers every year It may be even more in the near future, as some scientists predict that the average world temperature could go up to 7°C by the year 2100 Another problem facing Alaska is its thawing permafrost Much of the land in Alaska used to be permanently frozen or frozen for most of the year Now, the thawing permafrost is causing a number of problems for people living in Alaska Roads and utility poles are collapsing as the Trang 4/6 ground around and under them warms and soften Also, the hard permafrost that originally prevented beaches from eroding during violent storms is now melting People who live along Alaska’s coasts are being forced to relocate For villages on small low islands, one terrible storm could wipe out the entire community The melting permafrost and increasing temperatures are both affecting the forests of Alaska As the permafrost under the forests melts, insects that normally not turn up until the warmer seasons are appearing sooner The spruce-bark beetle, for example, is increasing in numbers as a result of warmer winter temperatures It usually takes about two years for these beetles to grow and reproduce in very cold weather However, due to the increase in temperatures, spruce-bark beetles are reproducing faster and damaging as many trees in one year as they previously damaged in two If something cannot be done to change things, Alaska’s forests will not survive the turn of the century Some scientists believe that human activity is linked to a global increase in weather temperature Whatever the cause of rising temperatures may be, the fact remains that temperatures are warming, affecting Alaska for the worse Horribly, this could be a preview of what will happen to the rest of the world in the next century (Adapted from Reading challenge by Casey Malarcher and Andrea Janzen) Question 38: Which of the following could be the main topic of the passage? A Alaska’s glaciers are reducing B The reasons why Alaska is disappearing C The areas of Alaska’s glaciers are thawing D The problems Alaska is facing Question 39: As mentioned in the first paragraph, the glaciers in Alaska made up _ A over 100,000 square kilometers B more than 75,000 square kilometers C about % of the area of the state D an area smaller than Ireland Question 40: According to the report by the US Geological Survey, which of the following is NOT true about Alaska? A Climate change is the major reason for the decrease of Alaska’s glaciers B The average winter temperature has risen by nearly 3°C C Every year, there is about 100 cubic kilometers of ice melting D The majority of Alaska’s glaciers are lessening Question 41: The word “permafrost” in the third paragraph mostly means A an area of land permanently frozen below the surface B fuels formed underground from plants and animals remains millions of years ago C a large mass of ice that moves slowly D a very large mass of ice that floats in the sea Question 42: The word “relocate” in paragraph is closest in meaning to A remain B restore C disappear D displace Question 43: According to the passage, the following are the problems caused by the melting permafrost, EXCEPT _ A The warm and soft ground makes roads and utility poles easy to collapse B The beaches are effortlessly eroded by violent storms C The insects which usually appear in warmer temperature not come back D The trees destroyed by the spruce-bark beetles in one warm year are twice as many as those damaged in a cold year Question 44: What does the word “they” in paragraph refer to? Trang 5/6 A trees B spruce-bark beetles C temperatures Question 45: What is predicted in the last paragraph?
