Read thefollowing passage and mark tlte letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicute the coruect answer to each of the questions
There are three valid arguments to support the preservation of endangered species An aesthetic
justification contends that biodiversity contributes to the quality of life because many of the endangered
plants and animals are particularly appreciated for their unique physical beauty The aesthetic role of nature
in all its diverse forms is reflected in the art and literature of every culture, attaining symbolic status in the
spiritual life of many groups According to the proponents of the aesthetic argument, people need nature in all its diverse and beautiful forms as part of the experience of the world.
Another argument that has been put forward, especially by groups in the medical and
pharmacological fields, is that of ecological self-interest By preserving all species, we retain a balance of nature that is ultimately beneficial to humankind Recent research on global ecosystems has been cited as evidence that every species contributes important or even essential functions that may be necessary to the
survival of our own species Some advocates of the ecological argument contend that important chemical
compounds derived from rare plants may contain the key to a cure for one of the diseases currently
threatening human beings If we not protect other species, then they cannot protect us
Apart from human advantage in both the aesthetic and ecological arguments, the proponents of a
moral justification contend that all species have the right to exist, a viewpoint stated in the United Nations World Charter for Nature, created in 1982 Furthermore, if humankind views itself as the stewards of all the creatures on Earth, then it is incumbent upon human beings to protect them, and to ensure the continued existence of all species Moral justification has been extended by a movement called "deep ecology", the members of which rank the biosphere higher than people because the continuation of life depends on this
larger perspective To carry their argument to its logical conclusion, all choices must be made for the biosphere, not for people

There are three valid arguments to support the preservation of endangered species An aesthetic
justification contends that biodiversity contributes to the quality of life because many of the endangered
plants and animals are particularly appreciated for their unique physical beauty The aesthetic role of nature
in all its diverse forms is reflected in the art md literature of every culture, attaining symbolic status in the
spiritual life of many groups According to the proponents of the aesthetic argument, people need nature in all its diverse and beautiful forms as part of the experience of the world
Another argument that has been put forward, especially by groups in the medical and
pharmacological fields, is that of ecological self-interest By preserving all species, we retain a balance of nature that is ultimately beneficial to humankind Recent research on global ecosystems has been cited as evidence that every species contributes important or even essential functions that may be necessary to the
survival of our own species Some advocates of the ecological argument contend that important chemical
(12)compounds derived from rare plants ma)' contain the ke,v to a cllre for one of the diseases currentll' threatening human beings If we not protect other species, then they cannot protect us'
Apart from hum"an advantage in Uoth the aesthetic and ecological arguments, the proponents of a moral justification contend that all ipecies have the right to exist, a viewpoint stated in the United Nations
World Charter for Nature, created rn 1982 Furthermore, if humankind views itself as the stewards of all the creatures on Earth, then it is incumbent upon human beings to protect them, and to ensure the continued existence of all species Moral justification has been extended by a movement called "deep ecology", the members of which rank the biosphere higher than people because the continuation of life depends on this
larger perspective To carry their arguient to its togicat conclusion, all choices must be made fol the
biosphere, not for PeoPle.

Most languages have several levels of vocabulary that may be used by the same speakers In English, at least three have been identified and described
Standard usage includes those words and expressions understood, used, and accepted by a majority of the speakers of a language in any situation regardless of the level of formality As such, these words and expressions are well defined and listed in standard dictionaries Colloquialisms, on the other hand, are
familiar words and idioms that are understood by almost all speakers of a language and used in informal speech or writing, but not considered acceptable for more formal situations Almost all idiomatic
expressions are colloquial language Slang, refers to words and expressions understood by a large number

There are three valid arguments to support the preservation of endangered species_ An aesthetic
justification contends that biodiversity contributes to thi quality of life because many of the endangered ptants and animals are parlicularly appreciated for their unique physical beauty The aesthetic role of nature
in all its diverse forms is reflected in the art and literature ot.u.ry culture, attaining symbolic status in the
spiritual life of many groups According to the proponents of the aesthetic argument, people need nature in
uil itr diverse and beautifui for*t as part of the experience of the world'
Another argument that hai been put forward, especially by groups in the medical and pharmacological fijds, is that of ecological self-interest By pieserving all species, we retain a balance of nature that is ultimately beneficial to humankind Recent research on global ecosystems has been cited as evidence that every sp"ci"s contributes important or even essential functions that may be necessary to the
survival of our o*n species Some advocaies of the ecological argument contend that important chemical
compounds derived fro- .ur plurtrG*y-*ntain the key to a cure for one of the diseases currently
threatening human beings If we not protect other species, then they carurot protect us'
Apart from hunian advantage in Uottr the aesthetic and ecological arguments, the proponents of a moral justification contend that all species have the right to exist, a viewpoint stated in the United Nations
World Charter for Nature, created in 1982 Furthermoie, if humankind views itself as the stewards of all the creatures on Earth, then it is incumbent upon human beings to protect them, and to ensure the continued existence of all species Moral justification has been extended by a movement called "deep ecology", the members of which rank the biosphere higher than people because the continuation of life depends on this

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on yoar answer sheet to indicute the conect
dnswer to each of the questions
There are three valid arguments to support the preservation of endangered species An aesthetic
justification contends that biodiversity contributes to the quality of life because many of the endangered plants and animals are particularly appreciated for their unique physical beauty The aesthetic role of nature
in all its diverse forms is reflected in the art and literature of every culture, attaining symbolic status in the
spiritual life of many groups According to the proponents of the aesthetic argument, people need nature in all its diverse and beautiful forms as part of the experience of the world.
Another argument that has been put forward, especially by groups in the medical and
pharmacological fields, is that of ecological self-interest By preserving all species, we retain a balance of nature that is ultimately beneficial to humankind Recent research on global ecosystems has been cited as evidence that every species contributes important or even essential functions that may be necessary to the
survival of our own species Some advocates of the ecological argument contend that important chemical
compounds derived from rare plants may contain the key to a cure for one of the diseases currently
threatening human beings If we not protect other species, then they cannot protect us
Apart from human advantage in both the aesthetic and ecological arguments, the proponents of a moral justification contend that all species have the right to exist, a viewpoint stated in the United Nations World Charter forNature, created in1982 Furthermore, if humankind views itself as the stewards of all the creatures on Earth, then it is incumbent upon human beings to protect them, and to ensure the continued existence of all species Moral justification has been extended by a movement called "deep ecology", the members of which rank the biosphere higher than people because the continuation of life depends on this larger perspective To carry their argument to its logical conclusion, all choices must be made for the biosphere, not for people
