C. Reading Comprehension

5. Read the following passage, then answer the questions:

Although hydroelectric power plants cause less pollution than other types of power plants, they cause other environmental problems. Firstly, when a dam is built, a large area of land is flooded and often many people are forced to leave their farms and homes. Secondly, the rotting plants in the flooded area make the greenhouse gas methane, whose emissions can be very high. Thirdly, the dam prevents fish from swimming upstream to get to the places where they reproduce, so fish populations are reduced. There are other problems. The water exiting the turbines has a different oxygen level and is much warmer. This harms the plants and animals living downstream from the dam. Finally, because the water exiting the turbines has less sediment (solid substances) in it, it wears away the river banks downstream. Scientists must examine all the possible side effects of a new dam while it is in the planning stages.

a.

5. Read the following passage, then answer the questions:

Flowers produce a fine powder called pollen, which is carried by the wind or by insects to other flowers of the same type so that they can produce seeds. Pollination, the carrying of pollen from one flower to another, is necessary for the reproduction of plants and for the production of food. Scientists estimate that one third of our food depends on insects, mostly bees, for pollination.    But in recent years, there has been a big drop in the populations of pollinators worldwide. There are several reasons. The use of pesticides has had the side effect of killing pollinators. Air pollution prevents insects from smelling and finding flowers, which they need for food. Diseases are killing many insects. Growing cities are destroying the environments where pollinators live. Recently, shortages of fruit and vegetables in India were blamed on the loss of pollinators. Clearly, it is important that we find solutions quickly.

a) Flowers can't make pollen.                      d) Pollution kills insects.

5. Read the following passage, then answer the questions:
A geyser is a special type of hot spring in which steam and hot water erupt and are thrown into the air. Some geysers throw water up more than 45 metres. Some geysers erupt at regular intervals and are predictable. One of the most famous, Old Faithful, erupts about every 90 minutes. But most geysers are unpredictable and irregular.   Worldwide there are only about 1,000 geysers and half of them are in Yellowstone National Park, USA. Geysers are a rare phenomenon because they form only under certain hydro geological conditions. If conditions change, geysers can become dormant or extinct. Natural phenomena such as prolonged droughts, earthquakes, or landslides can make this happen. So can human activities such as mining, building dams, throwing trash into the geyser vent, and dewatering by geothermal power plants. Even without human activities, the lifespan of geysers is at most a few thousand years.

Reading good books will be a better way to use our time than playing games or reading comic books. Don't you agree with me?

Read the following passage, then answer the questions:    One hundred years ago, diabetes always killed. A victim of diabetes would often have a damaged body organ called the pancreas, but doctors didn’t understand why. In 1921, a young doctor called Frederick Banting had a theory that the pancreas released a substance that controlled the sugar in the blood. Professor John Macleod at the University of Toronto, Canada, gave him a laboratory, ten dogs, and medical student Charles Best as a research assistant. Banting and Best showed that an extract from the pancreas, which they named ‘insulin’, could control blood sugar in dogs. Biochemist Bertram Collip joined them. He made the insulin pure so it could be tested on humans. The discovery of insulin was a landmark. Diabetic patients no longer died from the disease. Banting and Macleod received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1923, but they shared their prize money with Best and Collip. a. Give short answers to the following questions: 1. Before Banting’s discovery, what didn’t doctors understand? 2. What happened to diabetic patients before insulin was discovered? 3.

Read the following passage, then answer the questions:       We spend billions of dollars to study the sun and distant stars. We should stop this and study the oceans instead. They cover nearly 70% of the earth. Oceanography is more important than space science. It researches processes that directly affect our lives. For example, we release tonnes of waste into the oceans every year. Oceanographers, who specialise in various fields, can tell us the results of pollution on marine life, on the chemistry of the seas and on the currents (movement of water) that affect climate. We know that in different parts of the seas, distinctive forms of life have evolved. There are even living things that do not depend on the sun for energy! Maybe we can learn something useful by studying them. There are vast areas of the oceans, especially in the deepest water, that are unexplored. This is where we should be researching, not the stars. a. Give short answers to the following questions: 1. What is the writer’s opinion of space science? 2.
