The scarcity of tigers and African elephants is more and more serious. They are endangered
because poachers hunt them in order to sell tiger pelts and elephant ivory.
At least 4,000 elephants are killed each year in order to meet the global demand for ivory, which
is used to make carvings, jewelry and other products although it is illegal to sell ivory since 1989
anywhere.
“Americans should be aware that there is still a problem with elephant poaching and loss to the
illegal ivory trade,” Ginette Hemley, Fund’s vice president for species conservation, told The
Washington Post in September. And so our message is “Don’t buy it, and don’t take that chance”.
A Wildlife Fund report states that the United States seized 8,300 illegal ivory items between 1995
and 2002. Each week there are about 1,000 ivory auctions, the report said.
As for tigers, their parts are used in traditional Chinese medicine. Tiger bones are used as a pain

reliever in traditional medicine. Even tiger’s whiskers are sold because some people in Asia think they
are a good-luck charm – like a rabbit’s foot in the United States. “ Part of our job is education,” said
Professor Dillon. “ The other part is law enforcement. So we have more than one strategy.”

Read the passage and choose the correct answers:
Scientists often divide resources into two groups: renewable and non– renewable. When a resource
is used, it takes some times to replace it. If the resource can be replaced quickly and easily, it is called
renewable. If it cannot be replaced quickly and easily, it is non-renewable. All fossil fuels are non-
renewable resources. Solar energy, air, and water are usually called renewable because there is an
unlimited supply.
However, this definition may change if people are not careful with these resources. The amount of
solar energy that reaches the earth depends on the atmosphere. If the atmosphere is polluted, the solar
energy that reaches the earth may be dangerous. If humans continue to pollute the air, it will not contain
the correct amounts of these gases.
Many resources are limited and non- renewable, and many are in danger of pollution. As a
consequence, resources must be conserved and the environment protected. Conservation must become an
important part of everyone’s life.

48. What will happen if the atmosphere is polluted?
A. The air won’t contain the correct amounts of natural gases
B. Life won’t continue as it does
C. Renewable resources will soon become non- renewable
D. All are correct
49. The word conservation in the passage is opposite to
A. prevention B. pollution C. protection D. preservation
50. Why do we have to conserve resources?
A. Because many resources are limited and non-renewable

B. Because conservation plays an important part in everyone’s life
C. To keep the air from being polluted
D. To make natural resources renewable

Asian teams the idea of having discussions about holding the Asian Games. They agreed to form the
Asian Athletic Federation. A preparatory committee was set up to draft the charter for the Asian amateur
athletic federation. In February, 1949, the Asian athletic federation was formed and used the name Asian
Games Federation. It was decided to hold the first Asian Games in 1951 in New Delhi the capital of
India. They added that the Asian Games would be regularly held once every four years.
