The Importance of Rainforests

Rainforests are one of the most complicated environments on Earth. They are recognized
worldwide as containing the richest source of plants and animals and are believed to contain nearly
three-quarters of all the varieties of life on Earth. This is remarkable because rainforests cover only
about six per cent of the Earth’s land surface.
Rainforests are the oldest major ecosystem, having survived climate changes for more than one
million years. They provide habitats for more species of plants, animals, insects and birds than any
other environment found on our planet. Scientists estimate that between 60 and 90 per cent of all
species of life are to be found in rain forests. Unfortunately, the widespread destruction of many of
the world’s rainforests has caused a significant decline in the number of plant and animal species on
Earth.

Rainforests influence both our local and global climates. For example, between 50 and 80 per cent
of the moisture in the air above rainforests comes from the rainforest’s treees. If larege areas of
these lush rainforests are cleared, he average rainfall in the area will drop. Eventually, the area’s
climate will get hotter and drier. This process could convert rainforests into a sparse grassland or
desert. Rainforests are als able to absorb over 90 per cent of the rainfall in their leaves and mosses.
By doing this, they are able to slow down water run-off by gradually releasing the water over time
into streams and rivers. This helps to control soil erosion and flooding.

Rainforests are vital to the Earth in helping to recyle carbon and oxygen. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the
gas put into the air globally by humans, mainly by the burning of fossil fuels (for example in cars and
factories). Rainforests are able to remove carbon dioxide from the air and return oxygen in its place.
This is why our global rainforests are often called the Earth’s “lungs’. Rainforests are major
producers of the Earth’s oxygen. In fact, scientsists believe that nearly 50 per cent of the Earth’s
oxygen is produced by rainforests in the Amazon region alone.

Nearly 40 per cent of the world’s carbo is contained in the trees of the rainforests. As rainforests
are cut down and burned, carbon dioxide is released into the Earth’s atmosphere. Eventually, as this
gas builds up the atmosphere, leading to what scientists call the enhanced greenhouse effect. To
sum up, the role of the rainforests is essential for human life. It creates equilibrium in our
environment and its resources are significant for human beings survival.

Read the following text to answer questions number 1 to 3.

The government should Provide rehabilitation Program for Drug Users

Drug users are actually ill people who need help. Rehabilitation is one of the main things they
should get. Instead of punishing drug users in prisons, the government should provide rehabilitation
for them.

Most users are actually victims of persuasive peddlers and they suffer from consuming the drugs.
Therefore, by rehabilitating them, we are actually helping them out from traps, which they might
accidentally step on.

If we only arrest drug users and send them to jail, this doesn't solve the problem as drug users will
still be addicted unless proper rehabilitation is imposed to them. Providing rehabilitation programs
for drug users and forcing them to participate in the programs is better than only arresting them
and doing nothing to their illness. Only drug dealers, traffickers, and wholesalers should be
imprisoned.

we can do. One of them is by buying and consuming fresh local groceries as much as possible. It of
course includes local vegetables, fruits, bread, etc.

buying local groceries we are helping reduce the amount of carbon dioxide produced.

Consuming fresh groceries instead of frozen ones are healthier for us. Furthermore, fresh food or
groceries means no requirements for it to be freeze up. It means that no electricity is needed and
saving energy means reducing carbon dioxide and money.

The use of formalin and other dangerous preservatives in food has been serious problem for three
reasons. Firstly, formalin is not for human beings, but it is for biological specimens and experiments.
Formalin in Biology is a 10% solution of formaldehyde in water which is usually used as a
disinfectant or to preserve biological specimens. Thus, it is not for food preservatives. Of course
when it is used for food preservative, it will be very dangerous to human’s body.

The second reason is that there is no tight control from the government. This condition makes the

formalin and dangerous preservatives. Can you imagine that our digestive system absorbs the
substance that should be for the human and animal corpses?

Integrated Pest Management

There is no best way to deal with pests in agriculture. Pesticides which are commonly used may
cause many problems. I think combining different management operations is the most effective
way to control pests.
Firstly, the chemicals in the pesticides may build up as residues in the environment and in the soil
which absorbs the chemicals. This reduces the quality of farm product.
Secondly, pests can gradually become resistant to pesticides. This means that newer and stronger
ones have to be developed.
Lastly, some pesticides affect non target plants and animals such as fish and bees. This affects the
ecology and environment as well.
So, understanding of ecology of an area helps a lot in pest control. Pesticides should be chosen and
applied carefully so that they don't affect the ecological balance and environment.
Therefore, integrated pest management is a safe and more effective option to fight pest in
agriculture and livestock.
1. Which of the following is not directly affected by pesticides used?
A. Plants
B. Ecology
C. Animals.
D. Environment.
E. Human Beings

2. What can you say about paragraph two and four?

A. The fourth paragraph supports the idea stated in paragraph two.
B. Both paragraphs tell about the disadvantages of using pesticides.
C. Both paragraphs tell about how pesticides affect the quality of farm products.
D. The statement in paragraph is contrary to the statement in paragraph four.
E. The second paragraph tells about the effects of using pesticides on animals mentioned in
paragraph four.

3. One of the disadvantages of using chemical pesticides is …

A. killing fish and bees.
B. increasing crops productivity.
C. creating balanced ecosystem.
D. causing the pests to become inactive
E. helping reduce pollutants in the environment.

4. Secondly, pests can gradually become resistant to pesticides. (paragraph 3)

The word resistant in the sentence above means …
A. weak
B. fragile
C. damage
D. unaffected
E. unbalanced
Learning English

Learning English through music and songs can be very enjoyable. You can mix pleasure with learning
when you listen to a song and exploit the song as a means to your English progress. Some
underlying reason can be drawn to support the idea why we use songs in language learning.

Firstly, “the song stuck in my head” Phenomenon (the echoing in our minds of the last song we
heard after leaving a restaurant, shopping malls, etc) can be both enjoyable and sometimes
unnerving. This phenomenon also seems to reinforce the idea that songs work on our short-and-
long term memory.

Secondly, songs in general also use simple conversational language, with a lot of repetition, which is
just what many learners look for sample text. The fact that they are effective makes them many
times more motivating than other text. Although usually simple, some songs can be quite complex
syntactically, lexically and poetically, and can be analyzed in the same way as any other literary
sample.

Furthermore, song can be appropriated by listener for their own purpose. Most pop songs and
probably many other types don’t have precise people, place or time reference.

In addition, songs are relaxing. They provide variety and fun, and encourage harmony within oneself
and within one group. Little wonder they are important tools in sustaining culture, religion,
patriotism and yeas, even revolution.

Last but not least, there are many learning activities we can do with songs such as studying
grammar, practicing selective listening comprehension, translating songs, learning vocabulary,
spelling and culture.

From the elaboration above, it can be concluded that learning through music and songs, learning
English can be enjoyable and fun.

Smoking in Restaurant

Smoking in restaurants is just not on. It must not be allowed because it is rude, harmful to others
and dangerous for the smokers.
