Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

The Amazon rainforest is home to more than a third of all the world's species of plants, birds and animals. Twenty per cent of all the birds in the world live in the rainforest. Scientists have discovered thousands of types of plants and animals that can only be found there. There are thousands - probably millions more that we haven't discovered yet. There are at least 2.5 million species of insects there. Imagine what would happen if they all lost their home? It couldn't happen, could it? Unfortunately, it's happening right now. Yet, the rainforest is big. But it's getting smaller. The problem is that people are cutting down the trees, mainly to make room for cows. These provide meat and make money for their owners. This process of cutting down trees is called ‘deforestation'.

The good news is that it is slowing down. In 2004, for example, more than 27,000 square kilometres were cut down. That's an area bigger than Wales. In 2006, because of all the campaigns to save rainforest, it dropped to just over 13,000 square kilometres. The bad news is that it's not enough. Scientists predict that by 2030, the rainforest will have become smaller by 40%. It's possible that by the end of the 21st century, the rainforest will have completely disappeared. With deforestation, thousands of the animals, birds, fish and plants that live in the Amazon rainforest lose their home, their natural habitat. Some of them move to other areas, but most of them die. Many species have already become extinct, and many more will if deforestation continues. That will change the balance of life in the rainforest and could cause enormous problems to the region's ecosystem.

There's another problem too. Trees and plants are a vital source of oxygen. If we cut them down, we lose that oxygen. But it's worse than just that. With deforestation, the trees and plants are burnt. This sends gases into the Earth's atmosphere, which stops some of the Earth's heat escaping. That then leads to the temperature here on the ground going up. This increase in the world's temperature is called 'global warming', and most scientists believe it's a very serious issue. If they stopped deforestation, it might help prevent global warming.

Question. In paragraph 2, the word "it” refers to ____.

A. room

B. process

C. rainforest

D. deforestation

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

The Native Americans of northern California were very good at basketry, using the reeds, grasses, barks, and roots they found around them to fashion articles of all sorts and sizes - not only trays, containers, and cooking pots, but hats, boats, fish traps, baby carriers, and ceremonial objects.

Of all these experts, none excelled the Pomo - a group who lived on or near the coast during the 1800's, and whose descendants continue to live in parts of the same region to this day. They made baskets three feet in diameter and others no bigger than a thimble. The Pomo people were masters of decoration. Some of their baskets were completely covered with shell pendants; others with feathers that made the baskets' surfaces as soft as the breasts of birds. Moreover, the Pomo people made use of more weaving techniques than did their neighbors. Most groups made all their basketwork by twining - the twisting of a flexible horizontal material, called a weft, around stiffer vertical strands of material, the warp, others depended primarily on coiling - a process in which a continuous coil of stiff material is held in the desired shape with tight wrapping of flexible strands. Only the Pomo people used both processes with equal ease and frequency. In addition, they made use of four distinct variations on the basic twining process, often employing more than one of them in a single article.

Although a wide variety of materials was available, the Pomo people used only a few. The warp was always made of willow, and the most commonly used weft was sedge root, a woody fiber that could easily be separated into strands no thicker than a thread. For color, the Pomo people used the bark of redbud for their twined work and dyed bulrush root for black in coiled work. Though other materials were sometimes used, these four were the staples in their finest basketry.

If the basketry materials used by the Pomo people were limited, the designs were amazingly varied. Every Pomo basketmaker knew how to produce from fifteen to twenty distinct patterns that could be combined in a number of different ways.

Question 1. The word "fashion" in line 2 is closest in meaning to____________.

A. maintain B. organize C. trade D. create

Question 2. The Pomo people used each of the following materials to decorate baskets EXCEPT_________.

A. shells B. feathers C. leaves D. bark

Question 3. What is the author's main point in the second paragraph?

A. The neighbors of the Pomo people tried to improve on the Pomo basket weaving techniques.

B. The Pomo people were the most skilled basket weavers in their region.

C. The Pomo people learned their basket weaving techniques from other Native Americans.

D. The Pomo baskets have been handed down for generations.

Question 4. According to the passage, a weft is a____________.

A. tool for separating sedge root B. process used for coloring baskets

C. pliable material woven around the warp D. pattern used to decorate baskets

Question 5. According to the passage, what did the Pomo people use as the warp in their baskets?

A. bulrush B. willow C. sedge D. redbud

Question 6. The word "staples" in line 21 is closest in meaning to____________.

A. combinations B. limitations C. accessories D. basic elements

Question 7. Which of the following statements about Pomo baskets can be best inferred from the passage?

A. Baskets produced by other Native Americans were less varied in design than those of the Pomo people.

B. Baskets produced by Pomo weavers were primarily for ceremonial purposes.

C. There were a very limited number of basket-making materials available to the Pomo people.

D. The basket-making production of the Pomo people has increased over the years.
