SECTION III: READING (6.0 POINTS)
Part 1: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions. (2 points-0.2/each)
Plants and animals will find it difficult to escape from or adjust to the effects of global
warming. Scientists have already observed shifts in the lifecycles of many plants and animals, such as
flowers blooming earlier and birds hatching earlier in the spring. Many species have begun shifting
where they live or their annual migration patterns due to warmer temperatures.
With further warming, animals will tend to migrate toward the poles and up mountainsides toward
higher elevations. Plants will also attempt to shift their ranges, seeking new areas as old habitats grow
too warm. In many places, however, human development will prevent these shifts. Species that find
cities or farmland blocking their way north or south may become extinct. Species living in unique
ecosystems, such as those found in polar and mountaintop regions, are especially at risk because
migration to new habitats is not possible. For example, polar bears and marine mammals in the Arctic
are already threatened by dwindling sea ice but have nowhere farther north to go.
Projecting species extinction due to global warming is extremely difficult. Some scientists have
estimated that 20 to 50 percent of species could be committed to extinction with 2 to 3 Celsius
degrees of further warming. The rate of warming, not just the magnitude, is extremely important for
plants and animals. Some species and even entire ecosystems, such as certain types of forest, may not
be able to adjust quickly enough and may disappear.
Ocean ecosystems, especially fragile ones like coral reefs, will also be affected by global warming.
Warmer ocean temperatures can cause coral to “bleach: bay màu”, a state which if prolonged will lead
to the death of the coral. Scientists estimate that even 1 Celsius degree of additional warming could
lead to widespread bleaching and death of coral reefs around the world. Also, increasing carbon
dioxide in the atmosphere enters the ocean and increases the acidity of ocean waters. This
acidification further stresses ocean ecosystems.
61. Scientists have observed that warmer temperatures in the spring cause flowers to ______.
A. die instantly B. bloom earlier C. become lighter D. lose color
62. According to paragraph 2, when their habitats grow warmer, animals tend to move ______.
A. south-eastwards and down mountainsides toward lower elevations
B. north-westwards and up mountainsides toward higher elevations
C. toward the North Pole and down mountainsides toward lower elevations
D. toward the poles and up mountainsides toward higher elevations
63. The pronoun “those” in paragraph 2 refers to ______.
A. species B. ecosystems C. habitats D. areas
64. The phrase “dwindling sea ice” in paragraph 2 refers to ______.
A. the frozen water in the Arctic B. the violent Arctic Ocean
C. the melting ice in the Arctic D. the cold ice in the Arctic
65. It is mentioned in the passage that if the global temperature rose by 2 or 3 Celsius degrees,
______.
A. half of the earth’s surface would be flooded B. the sea level would rise by 20 centimeters
C. water supply would decrease by 50 percent D. 20 to 50 percent of species could become
extinct
66. If some species are not able to adjust quickly to warmer temperatures, ______.
