Please read the passage carefully and then answer the questions below.The RainforestThe rainforest is a very special kind of forest that can be found in tropical regions around the world. It is called a “rainforest” because it receives a lot of rain every year. The rainforest is home to a wide variety of plants, animals, and insects. In fact, it is estimated that about half of all the known species on Earth live in the rainforest.The trees in the rainforest are very tall and dense, forming a canopy that blocks out most of the sunlight. This makes the forest floor dark and cool. Because of this, many plants grow on the trunks and branches of the trees, which is called an “epiphyte.” The rainforest is also home to many types of animals, such as jaguars, sloths, and monkeys. These animals have adapted to their environment in various ways, such as having strong limbs for climbing and sharp claws for gripping branches.Unfortunately, the rainforest is facing many threats. Deforestation, which is the cutting down of trees in large numbers, is one of the biggest threats. This is done to make space for farming, mining, and other human activities. When the trees are cut down, it not only destroys the homes of many animals but also affects the balance of the ecosystem. Moreover, rainforest fires are also a significant problem. These fires are often caused by humans, but can also be natural events.Many organizations and individuals are working hard to protect the rainforest. They are planting new trees, creating protected areas, and raising awareness about the importance of preserving this unique habitat.Questions:1.Why is the rainforest called a “rainforest”?a) Because it is home to many animals.b) Because it receives a lot of rain every year.c) Because it is located in tropical regions.d) Because it is full of epiphytes.2.What is an “epiphyte”?a) A type of animal that lives on the forest floor.b) A plant that grows on the trunks and branches of trees.c) A type of insect that is found in the rainforest.d) A person who studies the rainforest.3.What are two main threats to the rainforest mentioned in the passage?a) Deforestation and rainforest fires.b) Overpopulation and climate change.c) Mining and pollution.d) Drought and flooding.Answers:1.b2.b3.a五、写作题(16分)Writing TaskObjective: To assess the student’s ability to express their thoughts and ideas in English, using proper grammar, vocabulary, and sentence structure.
