Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the
questions.
Since the world became industrialized, the number of animal species that have either become extinct or have neared extinction has
increased. Bengal tigers, for instance, which once roamed the jungles in vast numbers, now number only about 2,300. By the year 2025, it
is estimated that they will become extinct. What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that this extinction will have been caused
almost entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested in material gain but in personal gratification. This is
an example of the callousness that is contributing to the problem of extinction. Animals, such as Bengal tiger, as well as other endangered
species, are valuable parts of the world’s ecosystem. International laws protecting these animals must be enacted to ensure their survival
and the survival of our planet.
Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways. Some countries, in an effort to circumvent the
problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animal reserves. They then charge admission prices to help defray the costs of
maintaining the parks, and they often must also depend on world organizations for support. This money enables them to invest in
equipment and patrols to protect the animals. Another response to the increase in animal extinction is an international boycott of products
made from endangered species. This has had some effect, but by itself it will not prevent animals from being hunted and killed.
Question 36. What is the main topic of the passage?
A. the Bengal tiger
B. international boycott
C. endangered species

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the

questions.
Since the world became industrialized, the number of animal species that have either become extinct or have neared extinction has
increased. Bengal tigers, for instance, which once roamed the jungles in vast numbers, now number only about 2,300. By the year 2025, it
is estimated that they will become extinct. What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that this extinction will have been caused
almost entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested in material gain but in personal gratification. This is
an example of the callousness that is contributing to the problem of extinction. Animals, such as Bengal tiger, as well as other endangered
species, are valuable parts of the world’s ecosystem. International laws protecting these animals must be enacted to ensure their survival
and the survival of our planet.
Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways. Some countries, in an effort to circumvent the
problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animal reserves. They then charge admission prices to help defray the costs of
maintaining the parks, and they often must also depend on world organizations for support. This money enables them to invest in
equipment and patrols to protect the animals. Another response to the increase in animal extinction is an international boycott of products
made from endangered species. This has had some effect, but by itself it will not prevent animals from being hunted and killed.

A. Bengal tigers
B. Interest in material gain
C. Killing animals for personal satisfaction

A. buying and selling of animal products overseas .
B. a refusal to buy animal products worldwide
C. a global increase in animal survival.
D. defraying the cost of maintaining national parks

A. the Bengal tiger

B. international boycott
