indicate the correct answer to each of the questions A ghostly animal creeps silently through a Florida swamp It’s a rare type of big cat known as a Florida panther, one of only 80 to 100 such panthers left in the world Scientists must work to save these remaining panthers from extinction, but their secretive nature is making it difficult They are attaching a special transmitter to each Florida panther so they can follow their movements, range, and habits The technology these transmitters use is called satellite tracking The scientists are dedicated professionals, but they are not pioneers Their colleagues before them have attached tiny transmitters to many different kinds of wild animals, including birds, fish, and big cats So the Florida scientists are using their methods Firstly, they must trap and tranquillize the panther Then, the transmitter is attached to a harness and strapped to the panther’s body Each harness is custom designed and manually adjusted for panthers so it fits comfortably Scientists don’t want the transmitter to interfere with the panther’s natural habits The point of tracking them is to find out as much as they can about their natural habits Once the tracking transmitter is in place, the information it records is sent to an orbiting satellite.The satellite can see the transmitter that is attached to the panther, even when it is out of sight of a biologist on the ground The satellite collects information from the transmitter about the panther’s exact location Once the information is received, it is transmitted back to Earth so it can be recorded by the scientists Trang 5/8 – Mã đề 213 Scientists can use the information in many different ways They can follow the panthers on the ground and observe their behavior Alternatively, they can use the information to determine the panthers’ ranges and to understand their social patterns They can also track how environmental changes like weather conditions affect their movements and health All this information can be used to provide ideal conditions for the endangered panthers.It can alsobeused to protect the panthers from danger In the end, the panther silently slips away through the trees Around its shoulders a transmitter is sending signals via satellite to a dedicated biologist The biologist is using the information the transmitter provides to save the Florida panthers from extinction With the help of satellite tracking these beautiful cats have a better chance of survival in the modern world (Adapted from http://www.thereadingplanet.com) Question 38: What

All work and no play could make for some very messed-up kids “Play is the most powerful way a child explores the world and learns about himself”, says T Berry Brazelton, professor at Harvard Medical School Unstructured play encourages independent thinking and allows the young to negotiate their relationships with their peers, but kids ages to 12 spend only hours a week engaging in it The chidren sampled spent a quarter of their rapidly decreasing “free time” watching television But that, believe it or not, was one of the findings parents might regard as good news If they are spendingless time in front of the TV set, however, kids aren’t replacing it with reading Despite efforts to get kids more interested in books, the children spent just over an hour a week reading Let’s face it, who’s got the time?
