Read the passage below and choose the correct answer for each question. Write your answers A, B, C or D on your answer sheet. (5 pts) A greenhouse is a building made of glass which is used for keeping plants warm when the outside temperature is low. In a similar way, there are several gases in the atmosphere which trap the heat produced by the sun and prevent it from escaping. These gases are known as "greenhouse gases", and the way in which they trap heat in the atmosphere is called the "greenhouse efect". This is not simply air pollution. Most of the main greenhouse gases exist naturally in small amounts in our atmosphere, and without them the earth would be 30 degrees colder and human life would not exist. In other words, the greenhouse efect is a natural course which is to some degree helpful to us. The problem is that in the last century and a half, we have been putting too many of these gases into the earth's atmosphere by burning large quantities of coal and oil and by cutting down forests. The rapid increase in greenhouse gases is making the earth warmer. The world's temperature has already gone up by half a degree this century, and the sea level has risen by 10 centimetres. If the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere doubles, there will probably be a rise in the earth's temperature of between 1 oC and 4oC. This may seem a small increase, but it would be enough to cause major changes in geography and agriculture. Large areas of the world would be flooded, and some areas would become dry and unable to produce crops. It is important, too, to consider that we are probably experiencing only now the efect of the gases put into the atmosphere before the 1960s. Since then, our use of these gases has greatly increased. 1. "Greenhouse effect" means ______..

<span class='text_page_counter'>(6)</span> A. a natural course which is to some degree helpful to us B. the way in which gases are used for keeping plants warm C. the way "greenhouse gases" trap heat on the earth D. the whole course in which greenhouse gases prevent heat 2. If there were no greenhouse effect, ______. A. no plants would grow on our planet B. man could not live on the earth C. earth would be thirty degrees colder D. all of the above answers are correct 3. Which of the following is NOT true? A. Burning too much coal and oil produces lots of greenhouse gases. B. It has become warmer on the earth more than in the past. C. Gases put into the atmosphere now will afect the earth years later. D. The temperature in the greenhouse is as high as that in the atmosphere. 4. Suppose the earth’s temperature rose by 3 degrees, ______. A. great harm would be done to mankind B. all the land in the world would be flooded C. the sea level would go up by 10 centimetres D. crops would be unable to grow on the earth 5. This passage mainly deals with ______. A. the concept and harm of greenhouse efect B. the concept and change of greenhouse efect C. the relation between greenhouse gases and man D. the efect of the rise of the earth's temperature II.
