Read the following passage and answer questions 9-13 below
A greenhouse is a building whose sides and roof are made of glass so that the temperature inside is
magnified. And it's used to grow plants that need high temperatures. This is to illustrate an example of how
man could be causing changes to the climate. These changes result from increasing the carbon dioxide levels
in the atmosphere, thus raising the surface temperature of the Earth. And this is known as the "Greenhouse
Effect."
CO
2
is a normal component of the atmosphere and until recently has not been considered an air pollutant.
But average global CO
2
concentrations have been increasing since 1860, with particularly sharp increase in
1958. The main reason for this continuous increase in CO
2
build-up is the burning of fossil fuels. During the
past 100 years, the CO
2
content of the atmosphere has already risen by about 15% - from about 290 to about
340 parts per million. And it's still rising.
Although the CO
2

content of the atmosphere is only about 0.032%, it's a major factor in determining average
global temperature. Incoming sunlight consists of many wavelengths including some very dangerous ones.
But ozone in the upper atmosphere and water vapor and CO
2
in the lower atmosphere filter out or destroy
most of the harmful wavelengths, so what reaches the Earth is mostly visible light. It's absorbed by land, sea
and cloud and is reradiated in the atmosphere as longer wavelength infrared radiation, or heat, as the Earth
cools. Much of this infrared radiation is absorbed by CO
2
. The CO
2
then radiates a portion of the absorbed
heat energy back to the Earth to warm the atmosphere. Rather like the glass in a greenhouse or a car window
on sunny day, CO
2
in the atmosphere acts as a one-way filter that allows visible light to enter the Earth's
atmosphere, but prevents longer wavelength heat radiation from leaving. Assuming that energy is arriving
from the sun at a constant rate, then as the level of CO
2
increases, the average surface temperature of the

earth should rise.
9. What is the purpose of using a greenhouse?
A. to give an example of atmospheric changes caused by man
B. to magnify temperature to grow plants requiring high temperatures
C. to give an example of buildings whose sides and roof are made of glass

2
in the earth's atmosphere

10. What is mainly discussed in paragraph 1?
A. The sides and roof of a greenhouse are made of glass
B. Plants need high temperatures to grow
C. What is the "Greenhouse Effect"?
D. A greenhouse is used for growing plants
11. Why is CO
2
considered an air pollutant?
A. CO
2
is a normal component of the atmosphere
B. Global CO
2
concentrations have been increasing
C. CO
2
is a by-product of the burning of fossil fuels
D. CO
2
raises the surface temperature of the Earth
12. What is not true according to the information from the passage?
A. The level of CO
2
has risen by as much as 15%
B. The sun emits some very dangerous wavelengths
C. A portion of sunlight is filtered out before entering the Earth
D. CO
2
allows sunlight to enter and leave the Earth's atmosphere

at present compared with that in the past
