Read the following passage and write the letter A, B, C or D on the top of the first page to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 30 to 34.

In 1972. a century after the first national park in the United States was established at Yellowstone, legislation was passed to create the National Marine Sanctuaries Program. The intent of this legislation was to provide protection to selected coastal habitats similar to that existing for land areas designated as national parks. The designation of an areas a marine sanctuary indicates that it is a protected area, just as a national park is. People are permitted to visit and observe there, but living organisms and their environments may not be harmed or removed.

The National Marine Sanctuaries Program is administered by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, a branch of the United States Department of Commerce. Initially, 70 sites were proposed as candidates for sanctuary status. Two and a half decades later, only fifteen sanctuaries had been designated, with half of these established after 1978. They range in size from the very small (less than 1 square kilometer) Fagatele Bay National Marine Sanctuary in American Samoa to the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary in California, extending over 15,744 square kilometers.

The National Marine Sanctuaries Program is a crucial part of new management practices in which whole communities of species, and not just individual species, are offered some degree of protection from habitat degradation and overexploitation. Only in this way can a reasonable degree of marine species diversity be maintained in a setting that also maintains the natural interrelationships that exist among these species.

Several other types of marine protected areas exist in the United States and other countries. The National Estuarine Research Reserve System managed by the United States government, includes 23 designated and protected estuaries. Outside the United States, marine protected-area programs exist as marine parks, reserves and preserves.

Over 100 designated areas exist around the periphery of the Caribbean Sea. Others range from the well-known Australian Great Barrer Reef Marine Park to lesser-known parks in countries such as Thailand and Indonesia, where tourism is placing growing pressures on fragile coral reef systems. As state, national, and international agencies come to recognize the importance of conserving marine biodiversity, marine projected areas whether as sanctuaries,parks, or estuarine reserves, will play an increasingly important role in preserving that diversity.

The passage mentions which of the following as a threat to marine areas outside the United States?

A. Limitations in financial support

B. The use of marine species as food

C. Variability of the climate

D. Increases in tourism

Vào năm 1972, một thế kỷ sau khi công viên quốc gia đầu tiên ở Hoa Kỳ được thành lập tại Yellowstone, pháp luật đã được thông qua để tạo ra chương trình Bảo tồn sinh vật biển quốc gia. Mục đích của luật này là nhằm bảo vệ môi trường sống ven biển được lựa chọn tương tự như các khu vực đất được chỉ định làm vườn quốc gia. Việc chỉ định một khu vực làm khu bảo tồn biển thể hiện rằng đó là một khu vực được bảo vệ, giống như một vườn quốc gia. Người ta được phép đến thăm và quan sát ở đó, nhưng sinh vật sống và môi trường của chúng không bị tổn hại hoặc bị bỏ đi.

Chương trình Bảo tồn sinh vật biển quốc gia do Cục quản lý đại dương và khí quyển quốc gia quản lý, một chi nhánh của Bộ Thương mại Hoa Kỳ. Ban đầu, 70 địa điểm đã được đề xuất làm khu bảo tồn. Sau hai năm rưỡi, chỉ có 15 khu bảo tồn được chọn, một nửa trong số đó được thiết lập sau năm 1978. Chúng có kích thước từ nhỏ nhất từ hơn 1 km vuông như khu bảo tồn biển quốc gia Fagatele Bay ở Samoa thuộc Mỹ đến hơn 15.744 km vuông-Vịnh Monterey National Marine Sanctuary ở California.

Chương trình Bảo tồn sinh vật biển quốc gia là một phần quan trọng trong các hoạt động quản lý mới, trong đó toàn bộ các loài, không chỉ riêng các loài cá, được bảo vệ khỏi sự suy thoái môi trường sống và khai thác quá mức. Chỉ bằng cách này mức độ đa dạng sinh học biển hợp lý mới có thể được duy trì ở mức độ ổn định tương quan tự nhiên giữa các loài này.

Một số loại khác của khu bảo tồn biển tồn tại ở Hoa Kỳ và các nước khác. Hệ thống Dự trữ Nghiên cứu Vùng Estuarine Quốc gia do chính phủ Hoa Kỳ quản lý, bao gồm 23 cửa sông được chỉ định và được bảo vệ. Bên ngoài Hoa Kỳ, các chương trình khu bảo tồn biển được xây dựng như các công viên biển. dự trữ và bảo quản.

Hơn 100 khu vực được chỉ định tồn tại xung quanh vùng biển Caribê. Một số khác nằm trong phạm vi từ Công viên Great Barrer Reef nổi tiếng của Úc đến những công viên ít được biết đến hơn ở các quốc gia như Thái Lan và Indonesia, nơi du lịch đang đặt áp lực ngày càng tăng lên các hệ thống san hô ngầm mỏng manh. Vì các cơ quan nhà nước, quốc gia và quốc tế đã nhận thức được tầm quan trọng của việc bảo tồn đa dạng sinh học biển, các khu vực bảo tồn sinh vật biển, dù là những khu bảo tồn. công viên hoặc khu bảo tồn cửa sông, sẽ đóng một vai trò ngày càng quan trọng trong việc bảo tồn sự đa dạng đó.

Trong quá trình lịch sử, các phát minh của con người đã làm tăng đáng kể lượng năng lượng có sẵn cho mỗi người sử dụng. Những người nguyên thủy ở vùng lạnh đốt gỗ và phân động vật để đốt các hang động của chúng, nấu thức ăn và lái xe bằng lửa. Bước đầu tiên để phát triển các nhiên liệu hiệu quả hơn đã được thực hiện khi người ta phát hiện ra rằng họ có thể sử dụng dầu thực vật và chất béo động vật thay vì thu thập hoặc chặt gỗ. Than củi cho nhiệt độ cao hơn gỗ và dễ dàng lấy được hơn chất béo hữu cơ. Người Hy Lạp lần đầu tiên bắt đầu sử dụng than đá để luyện kim trong thế kỷ thứ 4, nhưng nó đã không được sử dụng rộng rãi cho tới Cách mạng Công nghiệp.

Coincident with concerns about the accelerating loss of species and habitats has been a growing appreciation of the importance of biological diversity, the number of species in a particular ecosystem, to the health of the Earth and human well-being. Much has been written about the diversity of terrestrial organisms, particularly the exceptionally rich life associated tropical rain-forest habitats. Relatively little has been said, however, about diversity of life in the sea even though coral reef systems are comparable to rain forests in terms of richness of life.

An alien exploring Earth would probably give priority to the planet's dominants - most distinctive feature - the ocean. Humans have a bias toward land that sometimes get in the way of truly examining global issues. Seen from far away, it is easy to realize landmasses occupy only one-third of the Earth’s surface. Given that two thirds of the Earth's surface is water and that marine life lives at all levels of the ocean, the total three-dimensional living space of the ocean is perhaps 100 times greater than that of land and contains more than 90 percent of all life on Earth even though the ocean has fewer distinct species.

The fact that half of the known species are thought to inhabit the world's rain forests doesn't seem surprising, considering the huge numbers of insects that comprise the bulk of the species. One scientist found many different species of ants in just one tree from a rain forest. While every species is different from every other species, their genetic makeup constrains them to be insects and to share similar characteristics with 750,000 species of insects. If basic, broad categories such as phyla and classes are given more emphasis than differentiating between species, then the greatest diversity of life is unquestionably by sea. Nearly every major type of plant and animal has some presentation there.

To appreciate fully the diversity and abundance of life in the sea, it helps to think small. Every spoonful of ocean water life, on the order of 100 to 100,000 bacteria cells plus assorted microscopic plants and animals, including larvae of organisms ranging from sponges and corals to starfish and clams and much more.

The word “there” in paragraph 3 refer to

A. the rain forests

Read the following passage on transport, and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 43 to 50.

(1) As the twentieth century began, the importance of formal education in the United States increased. The frontier had mostly disappeared and by 1910 most Americans lived in towns and cities. Industrialization and the bureaucratization of economic life combined with a new emphasis upon credentials and expertise to make schooling increasingly important for economic and social mobility. Increasingly, too, schools were viewed as the most important means of integrating immigrants into American society.

(2) The arrival of a great wave of southern and eastern European immigrants at the turn of the century coincided with and contributed to an enormous expansion of formal schooling. By 1920 schooling to age fourteen or beyond was compulsory in most states, and the school year was greatly lengthened. Kindergartens, vacation schools, extracurricular activities, and vocational education and counseling extended the influence of public schools over the lives of students, many of whom in the larger industrial cities were the children of immigrants. Classes for adult immigrants were sponsored by public schools, corporations, unions, churches, settlement houses, and other agencies.

(3) Reformers early in the twentieth century suggested that education programs should suit the needs of specific populations. Immigrant women were once such population. Schools tried to educate young women so they could occupy productive places in the urban industrial economy, and one place many educators considered appropriate for women was the home.

(4) Although looking after the house and family was familiar to immigrant women, American education gave homemaking a new definition. In preindustrial economies, homemaking had meant the production as well as the consumption of goods, and it commonly included income-producing activities both inside and outside the home, in the highly industrialized early-twentieth-century United States, however, overproduction rather than scarcity was becoming a problem. Thus, the ideal American homemaker was viewed as a consumer rather than a producer. Schools trained women to be consumer homemakers cooking, shopping, decorating, and caring for children "efficiently" in their own homes, or if economic necessity demanded, as employees in the homes of others. Subsequent reforms have made these notions seem quite out-of-date.

It can be inferred from paragraph 1 that one important factor in the increasing importance of education in the United States was _____.

A. the expanding economic problems of schools

B. the growing number of schools in frontier communities

C. an increase in the number of trained teachers

D. the increased urbanization of the entire country
