THE WILDLIFE
Wild animals, plants and the wild places where they live are seriously threatened. One species has become extinct in each year
of this century. But many hundreds are now in danger. Lack of attention would lead to the rapid advance of the process of
extinction.
Already many kinds of wild animals have been so reduced in number that their role in the ecosystem is forgotten. Animals like
the great apes, the whales, seals etc. are thought to be in danger of extinction.

But even more important, perhaps than individual kinds of animals and plants, whole habitats are in danger of vanishing:
marshes are being drained, and the world forests, especially tropical forests are being cut down to satisfy man's needs of timber
and paper.
What would our world be like if all the wild animals and wild plants vanished?- Would our life still exist then?

Câu 36: What would happen to the human beings if the wildlife vanished?
A. Many species would quickly become extinct. B. Tropical forests would be cut down.

Câu 37: What is more important than individual kinds of animals and plants?
A. the extinction of many species. B. the vanishing of whole habitats.
C. the rapid advance of the process of extinction. D. man’s need of timber and paper.

The first cause of global greenhouse gas emissions is over-population. In 1950, the world population was 3 billion, now 6.5
billion people who produce an enormous output of waste and utilize an unbelievable amount of resources and energy. Most people
having children have no idea why they are even having children. Most do not really love their children because if they did, they
would be very much involved in trying to ensure that their children have a world to survive in. Unless overpopulation is addressed,
there is no way of slowing down greenhouse gas emissions. But corporations need workers, governments need taxpayers,
bureaucrats and soldiers. More people means more money. The solution to all of our problems is simple. We just need to live in
accordance with the basic laws of ecology. Weaken diversity and the entire system will be weakened and will ultimately collapse.
All of the species within an ecosystem are interdependent. There is a limit to growth because there is a limit to carrying capacity.

Human populations are exceeding carrying capacity and diminishing resources and diversity of species. Albert Einstein wrote that
"if the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe, then man would have only four years of life left. No more bees, no more
pollination, no more plants, no more animals, no more man." And the honey bee is disappearing. Why? We do not know why. All
around the world bees are disappearing and bees pollinate our plants. We are cutting down forests and plundering the oceans. We
are polluting the soil, the air and the water and rapidly running out of fresh water to drink. Water is now being sold for more than
the equivalent amount of gasoline.

To a European, money means power, the freedom to do as he likes, which also means that, consciously or unconsciously, he says:
“I want to have as much money as possible myself and others to have as little money as possible.”
In the United States, wealth was also acquired by stealing, but the real exploited victim was not a human being but poor
Mother Earth and her creatures who were ruthlessly plundered. It is true that the Indians were expropriated or exterminated, but
this was not, as it has always been in Europe, a matter of the conqueror seizing the wealth of the conquered, for the Indian had
never realized the potential riches of his country. It is also true that, in the Southern states, men lived on the labor of slaves, but
slave labor did not make them fortunes; what made slavery in the South all the more inexcusable was that, in addition to being
morally wicked, it didn’t even pay off handsomely.
Thanks to the natural resources of the country, every American, until quite recently, could reasonably look forward to making
more money than his father, so that, if he made less, the fault must be his; he was either lazy or inefficient. What an American
values, therefore, is not the possession of money as such, but his power to make it as proof of his manhood; once he has proved
himself by making it, it has served its function and can be lost or given away. In no society in history have rich men given away so
large a part of their fortunes. A poor American feels guilty at being poor, but less guilty than an American renter who had
inherited wealth but is doing nothing to increase it; what can the latter do but take to drink and psychoanalysis?
Câu 76: Which of the following can be concluded from the first paragraph?
A. Some people not only want to get rich but wish others to be poor.
B. Some European acquire money and power without even being conscious of it.
C. Those who have a lot of money enjoy real freedom.
D. Money is made either consciously or unconsciously.
Câu 77: To an American, money means ___________.
A. proof of ability and manhood B. diligence and efficiency
C. "proof of ability and manhood" and "diligence and efficiency" D. The freedom to do whatever he likes
Câu 78: The author seems to believe that the natural resources in the U.S. are _________.
A. rich B. poor C. limited D. on the increase
Câu 79: In the passage, the word “fortunes” (Paragraphs 2 and 3) is used twice. What does it mean?
A. power B. luck C. wealth D. good opportunities

Câu 80: In the author’s opinion, an American renter __________.
A. should feel content with this inherited wealth B. should feel more guilty than a poor American
C. will take to drink if he does nothing to increase his wealth D. is even lazier and more inefficient than a poor American
