Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Earth is richly supplied with different types of living organisms which co-exist in their environments, forming complex, interrelated communities. Living organisms depend on one another for nutrients, shelter, and other benefits. The extinction of one species can set off a chain reaction that affects many other species, particularly if the loss occurs near the bottom of the food chain. For example, the extinction of a particular insect or plant might seem inconsequential. However, there may be fish or small animals that depend on that resource for foodstuffs. The loss can threaten the survival of these creatures and larger predators that prey upon them. Extinction can have a ripple effect that spreads throughout nature.
In addition to its biological consequences, extinction poses a moral dilemma for humans, the only species capable of saving the others. The presence of humans on the planet has affected all other life forms, particularly plants and animals. Human lifestyles have proven to be incompatible with the survival of some other species. Purposeful efforts have been made to eliminate animals that prey on people, livestock, crops, or pose any threat to human livelihoods. Some wild animals have been decimated by human desire for meat, hides, fur, or other body parts with commercial value. Likewise, demand for land, water, and other natural resources has left many wild plants and animals with little to no suitable habitat. Humans have also affected nature by introducing non-native species to local areas and producing pollutants having a negative impact on the environment. The combination of these human-related effects and natural obstacles such as disease or low birthrates has proven to be too much for some species to overcome. They have no chance of survival without human help.
As a result, societies have difficult choices to make about the amount of effort and money they are willing to spend to save imperiled species. Will people accept limits on their property rights, recreational activities, and means of livelihood to save a plant or an animal? Should saving such popular species as whales and dolphins take priority over saving obscure, annoying, or fearful species? Is it the responsibility of humans to save every kind of life form from disappearing, or is extinction an inevitable part of nature, in which the strong survive and the weak perish? These are some difficult questions that people face as they ponder the fate of other species living on this planet.
What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. Humans and endangered species
B. The importance of living organisms
C. Measures to protect endangered species
D. Causes of animal extinction

IX. Some of the lines are correct, and some have a word which should not be there. If a line is correct put a tick () by the number.
If not, write the word next to the line. Most people in my country have only lived in cities for the past thirty years. Before that they have lived in villages or small towns by the sea or in the mountains. This is why it is not unusual to hear even young children who they have lived in cities all their lives are talking about 'their village'. What they mean is the place where their parents were grew up or previous generations of their family lived. Even today although 'the village' is an important part of the lives of the majority of people who now make their living in cities. Most families still have yet a house in a village somewhere around the country and they return at there in the summer or during other holidays to help with the family land or just to spend time with friends and relatives. There is a wonderful sense of community and a shared past in each these villages which is so different from the cities in where most of us live. If these villages can survive, I am sure people will find it more easier to spend time in them in the future. People who have made many money in the cities will start to can invest in their old family homes and help to maintain this lovely aspect of family life in my country.
