Extreme Amazon

The Amazon River begins in the Andes Mountain in Peru. It travels about 6,000 kilometers to the Atlantic Ocean. It is the largest river in the world. It is also the second longest. Most of the Amazon's water comes from rain. During the rainy season parts of the river are 190 kilometers wide.

The Amazon River goes through the world largest rain forest. The Amazon rain forest is home to the highest number of plant and animal species on Earth. There are around 2.5 millions kind of insects, such as the world's largest ant. At least, 3,000 kinds of fish live there, and one-fifth of all the bird species in the world.

Some of the Amazon's animals are dangerous, such the anaconda, the largest snake in the world.

The two longest rivers in the world are the Amazon and the Nile. The Amazon begins in a stream near the top of a mountain which is called Cerro Huagra. The stream is called the Huarco. Later the Huarco becomes a river which is known as the Ucayali. The Ucayali then becomes the Amazon. The length of the Amazon from the beginning of the Huarco to the Atlantic Ocean is 6,448kilometres

The Nile begins in a stream which flows from Ruanda into Lake Victoria. When it leaves Lake Victoria, the river is known as the White Nile and flows through the Sudan. Further north it becomes the Nile and flows through Egypt past Cairo into the Mediterranean sea. If it is measured from the of the Luvironza stream to its mouth in the Mediterranean, the Nile is 222kilometres longer than the Amazon

1. The Amazon is one of the longest river in the world

->

2. The Nile flows from the stream Huarco to Lake Victoria

->

3. The Nile flows into the Media Sea

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

Have you ever entered a tropical rainforest? It's a special, dark place completely different from anywhere else. A rainforest is a place where the trees grow very tall. Millions of kinds of animals, insects, and plants live in the rainforest. It is hot and humid in a rainforest. It rains a lot in the rainforest, but sometimes you don‘t know it's raining. The trees grow so closely together that rain doesn't always reach the ground.

Rainforests make up only a small part of the Earth's surface, about six percent. They are found in tropical parts of the world. The largest rainforest in the world is the Amazon in South America. The Amazon covers 1.2 billion acres, or almost five million square kilometers. The second largest rainforest is in Western Africa. There are also rainforests in Central America, Southeast Asia, Northeastern Australia, and the Pacific Islands.

          Rainforests provide us with many things. In fact, the Amazon Rainforest is called the “lungs of our planet” because it produces twenty percent of the world's oxygen. One fifth of the world's fresh water is also found in the Amazon Rainforest. Furthermore, one half of the world's species of animals, plants, and insects live in the Earth's rainforests. Eighty percent of the food we eat first grew in the rainforest. For example, pineapples, bananas, tomatoes, corn, potatoes, chocolate, coffee, and sugar all came from rainforests. Twenty-five percent of the drugs we take when we are sick are made of plants that grow only in rainforests. Some of these drugs are even used to fight and cure cancer. With all the good things we get from rainforests, it’s surprising to find that we are destroying our rainforests. In fact, 1.5 acres, or 6,000 square meters, of rainforest disappear every second. The forests are being cut down to make fields for cows, to harvest the plants, and to clear land for farms. Along with losing countless valuable species, the destruction of rainforests creates many problems worldwide. Destruction of rainforests results in more pollution, less rain, and less oxygen for the world.

What is the author's purpose in the passage?

A. To provide factual information about tropical rainforests for readers.

B. To prove that rainforests are indispensable in our lives.

C. To explain why people have destroyed a large area of tropical rainforests.

D. To prevent people from damaging tropical rainforests.
