The size and location of the worlds deserts are always changing. Over millions of years, as climates change and
mountains rise, new dry and wet areas develop. But within the last 100 years, deserts have been growing at a
frightening speed. This is partly beCuse of natural change, but the greatest desert makers are humans.
In developing countries, 90 percent of the people use wood for cooking and heating. They cut down trees for
firewood. But trees are important. They cool the land under them and keep the sun off the smaller plants. When leaves
fall from a tree, they make the land richer. When the trees are gone, the smaller plants die, and there is nothing but
sand. Yet people must use firewood, raise animals, and grow crops in order to live.
THERE IS A WILL - THERE IS A WAY!

Humans can make deserts, but humans can also prevent their growth. Algeria planted a green wall of trees
across the edge of the Sahara to stop the desert sand from spreading. Mauritania planted a similar wall around
Nouakchott, the capital. Iran puts a thin covering of petroleum on sandy areas and plants trees. The oil keeps the water
in the land, and men on motorcycles keep the sheep and goats away. Other countries build long canals to bring water
to desert areas. Yet land that will probably become desert in the future equals the size of Australia. Can people stop the
growth of the worlds deserts and save the land that is so essential to life?

V. READING- COMPREHENSION
Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer for each question:
THE PEARL by John Steinbeck is the retelling of a story about a fisherman who finds a huge pearl, realizes
that the discovery is destroying his life and returns the pearl to the sea. It is told in a style so authentic that readers
feel they are hearing the story from one of the villagers who know all the characters. In spite of its simplicity; however,
there are several levels to enjoy in THE PEARL.
Some critics have pointed out that the author showed his great respect for the natural environment, and that
this book was really his statement about the dangers of creating serious damage to it. When the fisherman throws the
pearl back into the sea, he is doing something useful in his effort to prevent the habitat destruction. In fact, Steinbeck
was a member of an expedition to explore marine life along the coast of California when he heard the story of the
pearl of the world. Other critics have suggested that this work is the struggle between the good and the bad.
Although the fisherman has dreamed of buying peace and happiness with the pearl, he realizes that these spiritual gifts
are beyond price. They can not be bought.
It is true that Steinbecks work has won popularity among the readers. Perhaps everyone takes his own
meaning from this story and reads his own life into it.

a. a fisherman b. a villager c. John Steinbeck d. a member of an expedition
26. The word It in line 2 refers to . . . . . . . . . .
a. the huge pearl b. the discovery c. one of the characters d. the story

IV. Questions 25 - 29: Read the following passage and then choose the best answer to the questions by circling

Endangered species are plant and animal species which are in danger of extinction. Over 8,300 plant species and
7,200 animal species around the globe are threatened with extinction, and many thousands more become extinct each
year before biologists can identify them.
The primary Cuses of species extinction are habitat destruction, commercial exploitation and pollution. The
drainage of wetlands, cutting of forests, urbanization and road and dam construction have destroyed or seriously
damaged natural habitats. Since the 1600s, worldwide commercial exploitation of animals for food and other products
has seriously reduced the number of rare species. Toxic chemicals in the air and land, contaminated water and
increased water temperatures have also driven many species to the verge of extinction.
Plant and animal extinction leads to a loss of biodiversity. Maintaining biodiversity is important for us in many
ways. For example, humans depend on species diversity to have food, clean air and water, and fertile soil for
agriculture. In addition, we benefit greatly from the many medicines and other products that biodiversity provides.
Different conservation efforts have been made in order to save endangered species. The Red List - a global list of
endangered and vulnerable animal species - has been introduced to raise peoples awareness of conservation needs.
Governments have enacted laws to protect wildlife from commercial trade and overhunting. A number of wildlife

Water polo originated in England during the 1870s and soon became popular in the United States. It was first
played in the Olympic Games as a mens exhibition sport in 1900. In 1904 it became a mens medal sport, but only the
United States fielded a team. In 1908 it was contested internationally at the Olympics. Over the succeeding decades
water polo became especially popular in Europe.
From approximately 1920 to 1946 the United States departed from the international rules for water polo by
adopting for play a loosely inflated ball that could be gripped in one hand and carried toward the goal. Opposing
players usually attempted to seize the ball carriers, wrestle them under water and render them helpless from loss of
breath. This rough style of play virtually disappeared by 1946. Since that time traditional water polo has grown rapidly
in North America, especially as a college sport . It is particularly popular in southern California and other parts of the
West.
Women have played water polo since the Games early days, but participation was not widespread until the
1960s. In 1961 United States Water Polo established a national club championship for women. It has hosted one for
men since 1890. Womens water polo became an Olympic medal sport at the 2000 Games in Sydney, Australia.
