Today scientists draw attention to some of the potential consequences of global warming on wildlife. They point out that each species reacts to changes in
temperature differently. Some species will undoubtedly become extinct, particularly those with narrow temperature requirements, those confined to small reserves or parks, and those living in fragile ecosystems, whereas other species may survive in greatly reduced numbers and ranges. Ecosystems
considered most vulnerable to species loss in the short term are polar seas, coral reefs, mountains, coastal wetlands,tundra, taiga, and temperate forests. On the other hand, some species may be able to migrate to new environments or adapt themselves to the changing conditions in their present habitats. Also, some species may be unaffected by global warming, whereas others may emerge from it as winners, with greatly expanded numbers and ranges. Those considered most likely to prosper include weeds, pests, and disease-carrying organisms that are already common in many different
environments.
It is clear from the passage that global warming .----
A) has caused much decline in the number of many rare species
B) is particularly harmful to coastal wetlands and coral reefs
C) has increased dangerously and extensively throughout the world
D) has already forced many species to migrate to new environments
E) does not have the same impact on all species
The most significant political change in eastern
communism in
East and
the most prosperous of the Soviet satellite countries,
stagnation and environmental degradation. Waves of
East Germans registered their discontent with
worsening conditions by massive illegal emigration to
the West. This exodus together with evidence of
widespread official corruption led to the resignation of
Honecker. His successor, Egon Krenz, promised
reforms, but he was nevertheless faced with
continuing protests and continuing mass emigration.
In the end, on 4 November 1989, the government, in
a move that acknowledged its powerlessness to hold
its citizens captive, opened its border with
Germans to travel to the West. In a matter of days,
the Berlin Wall, which had been the embodiment of
the Cold War, the Iron Curtain, and the division of
East from West, was demolished by groups of
ordinary citizens. Jubilant crowds from both sides
walked through the gaping holes that now permitted
men, women, and children to take the few steps that
symbolized the return to freedom and a chance for
national unity.
As pointed out in the passage, in the late 1980s,----.
A) Honecker and Krenz were fully committed to the
ultimate unification of East and
B)
prosperity that the other Soviet satellite states
became envious of its economic success
C) the East German government, already corrupt
and disliked by the people, was no longer able to
prevent mass emigration to the West
D) Honecker introduced extremely austere
economic measures in order to improve
worsening conditions and get rid of corruption
E) East Germany adopted a policy of cooperation
with West Germany so that the effects of the
Cold War could be eliminated

Reading presents a real paradox to neurobiologists. It was only invented a few thousand years ago, so there really has not been enough time for our brain to evolve specialized ways to do it. How do brain circuits produced by millions of years of evolution in a world without written words adapt to the specific challenges of reading? We know we have to learn the skill but how does our brain learn to read? In the social sciences, the majority of researchers do not see a problem. There is a widespread view that the brain is a completely adaptable organ, capable of absorbing any form of culture. Yet recent findings from brain imaging studies and neurophysiology throw new light on the organization of the reading circuits in the brain. The findings contradict this simplistic model of a brain that merely absorbs everything from its cultural environment. And they suggest that the architecture of our brain is limited by strong genetic constraints though it seems that it has still some degree of flexibility.
The passage makes the point that, until recently,-----.
A) it was only the abnormal brain that attracted any attention
B) researchers in social sciences ignored the views of neurophysiologists concerning the brain
C) the brain was generally thought to adapt itself easily to new cultural environments
D) the structure of the brain did not attract much attention except from neurobiologists
E) neurophysiologists were not aware of the structural complexity of the brain

Parents are a key source of support in helping their children learn a second language as they, like teachers, are in a strong position to motivate children to be enthusiastic about language learning. They can teach them to appreciate how languages can enhance their lives. All parents have experience of teaching languages, as they taught their children their first language. Children need to feel confident in their use of other languages. Parents are in a unique position to develop that confidence and inspire their children to experiment with languages and use the skills they acquire. Many parents, because of their own interest in languages and with strong language skills themselves, may already be supporting their children in their language learning. Whatever their expertise, parents can contribute to the sense of fun and motivation that is essential to learning a language.
The main concern of the passage is how ----.
