Exercise 10. 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 133. The increase in earth's temperature can cause heat-related illnesses.
 A. Heat-related illnesses result from the increase in earth's temperature. 
 B. Heat-related illnesses result in the increase in earth's temperature. 
 C. Heat-related illnesses lead to the increase in earth's temperature.
 D. Heat-related illnesses trigger the increase in earth's temperature. 
134. Carbon dioxide is one of the primary greenhouse gases that cause global warming.
 A. Carbon dioxide is the only greenhouse gas that causes global warming. 
 B. Global warming results in greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide. 
 C. One of the main greenhouse gases that lead to global warming is carbon dioxide.
 D. Global warming causes greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide.

 B. Planting trees is the only way to control global warming.
