Britain (including 770 prisioners). Today there are about 4 million people in Sydney. It is the

biggest city in Australia, the busiest port in the South Pacific and one of the most beautiful
cities in the world. There are over twenty excellent beaches close to Sydney and its warm

Read the passage and answer the questions that follow:
Tropical rainforests are found in Amazon region of South America, Central America, and
South and Southeast Asia. Rainforests are very important to the world‟s climate. The

Amazon rainforest alone receives about 30 to 40 percent of the total rainfall on the earth and

decreasing size of rainforests will affect the climate on the earth, making it uncomfortable or
even dangerous for life. Saving our rainforests is an international problem. One country or
even a few countries cannot solve the problem alone. The nations of the world must work
together to find a solution before it is too late.
