If all that ice melted, the land (7) would start to ríse as much as 500 metres. Scientists believe the ice is already melting, and if it continues, the world's seaa and oceans will rise by (8) up to 60 meters. They say we must take action now, so (9) as to advoid a globad disaster. We need to use less fuel like oil ang gas in (10) order to reduce the effect of global warming on Antarctica's ice.

Which is the world's highest, driest, coldest and windiest continent? Which is the only place on Earth not yet ruined, still untouched by the destructive hand of man? Australasia? Or "the ice", as Antarctica is referred to by its old friends? Of course, the former still has 5 large areas as yet untouched, but nothing like the huge virgin expanses of "the ice".

 Now, the virgin continent has become the source of yet another conflict between scientists and enviromentalists. The latter believe that 10 Antarctica must be maintained as such and that scientists should be careful not to leave behind anything that might damage the environment. Scientists say that limited local environmental impact has to be expected and accepted, because the continent is an important natural laboratory for estimating the effects humans have on the globe, even 15 functioning as a kind of early - warning system for the whole planet. There is a treaty designed to protect this continent which has only 8000 inhabitants and most of them not permanent, but contains 70% of the world's fresh water. Oil and minerals cannot be exploited, 20 but what controls are there on the growing number of scientists, explorers and even tourists?

1. According to the passage what is the main reason for the conflict between the scientists and the environmentalists?

A. The possible emvironmental damage 

B.  The use of Antarctica as a laboratory

C.Antarctica is becoming a tourist spot

D. Antarctica is being used as an early - warning system

2. What can be inferred from the passage?

A. Antarctica cannot be saved

B. Antarctica has too few inhabitants to worry about

C. Antarctica is worth saving

D. There is a treaty about Antarctica, so there is nothing to worry about

3. What is the synonym of " Permanent"?

A. Everlasting

B.  Unstable

C. Worthy

D. Costly

4. What is the main topic of the passage?

A. Australasia

B. Iceland

C. Antarctica

D. The Ice Continents

One of the most urgent environmental problems in the world today is the shortage of clean water. Having clean drinking water is basic human right. But acid rain, industrial pollution and garbage have made many sources of water undrinkable. Lakes, reservoirs and even entire seas have become vast pools of poison. Lake Baikal in Russia is one of the largest lakes in the world. It contains a rich variety of animals and plants, including 1,300 rare species that do not exist anywhere else in the world. But they are being destroyed by the massive volumes of industrial effluent which pours into the lake everyday. Even where law existed, the government did not have the power to enforce them. Most industries simply ignore the regulations. The Mediterranean Sea occupies 1% of the world’s water surface. But it is the dumping ground for 50% of all marine pollution. Almost 16 countries regularly throw industrial wastes a few miles off shore.

Water is free to everyone. A few years ago people thought that the supply of clean water in the world was limitless. Today, many water supplies have been ruined by pollution and sewage. Clean water is now scarce, and we are at last beginning to respect this precious source. We should do something now.

1. According to the writer, one environmental problem in the world today is ________ .

A. acid rain B. industrial pollution. C. safe water shortage. D. population explosion .

2. Many sources of water are not drinkable because of _______ .

A. acid rain. B. industrial pollution. C. garbage D. all A, B, C, are correct

3. What is serious problem of Lake Baikal in Russia?

A. It contains a rich variety of animals and plants.

B. It is polluted by massive volumes of industrial wastes discharged into it .

C. It has 1,300 rare species that do not exist anywhere else in the world .

D. The government did not have the power to enforce laws and regulations.

4. How many countries throw industrial waste into the Mediterranean Sea regularly?

A. nearly 16 B. exactly 16. C. exactly 15 D. less than 15.

5. What is the message to the reader?

A. We should take action to protect our water resources.

B. We should take all water resources into account.

C. We should limit the use of water resources.

D. We should encourage people to use safe water.

III. Read the following passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question. Identify your answer by writing the corresponding letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet.

One of the most urgent environmental problems in the world today is the shortage of clean water. Having clean drinking water is basic human right. But acid rain, industrial pollution and garbage have made many sources of water undrinkable. Lakes, reservoirs and even entire seas have become vast pools of poison. Lake Baikal in Russia is one of the largest lakes in the world. It contains a rich variety of animals and plants, including 1,300 rare species that do not exist anywhere else in the world. But they are being destroyed by the massive volumes of industrial effluent which pours into the lake everyday. Even where law existed, the government did not have the power to enforce them. Most industries simply ignore the regulations. The Mediterranean Sea occupies 1% of the world’s water surface. But it is the dumping ground for 50% of all marine pollution. Almost 16 countries regularly throw industrial wastes a few miles off shore.

Water is free to everyone. A few years ago people thought that the supply of clean water in the world was limitless. Today, many water supplies have been ruined by pollution and sewage. Clean water is now scarce, and we are at last beginning to respect this precious source. We should do something now.
