III. Read the text and choose the best answer to each question that follows. Write A, B, C or D on your
answer Sheet. (10 points)
The atmosphere that originally surrounded Earth was probably much different from the air we

breathe today. Earth’s first atmosphere (some 4.6 billion years ago) was most likely hydrogen and helium.
The two most abundant gasses found in the universe - as well as hydrogen compounds, such as methane
and ammonia, most scientists feel that this early atmosphere escaped into space from the Earth’s ho:
surface.
A second, more dense atmosphere, however, gradually enveloped Earth as gasses from molten rock,

within its hot interior escaped through volcanoes and steam vents. We assume that volcanoes spewed ov.
the same gasses then as they do today: mostly water vapor (about 80 percent), carbon dioxide (about te,
percent), and up to a few percent nitrogen. These same gasses probably created Earth's second atmosphere.
As millions of years passed, the constant outpouring of gasses from the hot interior - known as

outgassing - provided a rich supply of water vapor, which formed into clouds. Rain fell upon Earth for
many thousands or years, forming the rivers, lakes, and oceans of the world. During this Lime, large
amounts of carbon dioxide were dissolved in the oceans. Through chemical and biological processes, much

of the carbon dioxide became locked up in carbon sedimentary rocks, such as limestone. With much of the
water vapor already condensed into water and the concentration of carbon dioxide dwindling, the
atmosphere gradually became rich nitrogen.
It appears that oxygen, the second most abundant gas in today’s atmosphere, probably began an

extremely slow increase in concentration as energetic rays from the sun split water vapor into hydrogen
and oxygen during a process called photodissociation. The hydrogen, being lighter, probably rose and
escaped into space, while the oxygen remained in the atmosphere.

This slow increase in oxygen may have provided enough of this gas for primitive plants to evolve, perhaps
two to three billion years ago. Or the plants may have evolved in an almost oxygen-free (anaerobic)
environment. At any rate, plant growth greatly enriched our atmosphere with oxygen. The
