Read the text carefully, then choose the most suitable answers.  Wild animals, wild plants and the wild places where they live are seriously threatened almost everywhere. 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 animals have been so reduced in number that their role in the ecosystem is forgotten. Animals like great apes, 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 or timber and paper.What would our world be like if all the wild animals and wild plants vanished- Would our life be extinct then?Question 1.Question 1: According to the passage, which sentence is NOT true?A.Animals like great apes, the whales, seals etc. thought to be in danger of extinction.B.Many hundreds of species are now not endangered.C.Whole habitats are in danger of vanishing.D.Lack of attention would lead to the rapid advance of the process of extinction.Question 2.Question 2: 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 needs of timber and paper.Question 3.Question 3: What does the writer caution us against?A.Hunting wild animals.B.Cutting down the tropical forests.C.Draining marshes.D.Destroying our environment.Question 4.Question 4: The verb “to threaten” in the passage means?A.to give fear toB.to polluteC.to vanishD.to poisonQuestion 5.Question 5: What would happen to the human being if the wild life vanished?A.The human life would be seriously threatened.B.Many species would quickly become extinct.C.Species would go on dying out.D.Tropical forest would be cut down.
