Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 30 to 36.
Our planet has over eight billion people, and this number keeps increasing by approximately 370,000 individuals each day. This rapid growth is putting a huge strain on Earth's natural resources. Governments and environmental groups are now in a race to significantly cut down our resource usage before they become depleted.
Water is one of our most precious resources. Our quality of life, as well as life itself, depends on the availability of clean, fresh water. It is the most widely used resource in industry, and plays a major role in energy production. Although 70 percent of the world is covered in water, only 2.5 percent of that is fresh water, and less than one percent of that freshwater is readily available to us. Yet we often overestimate how much water we have, and reduce it further through pollution or inefficient use.
Some 92 percent of all fresh water used annually is dedicated to growing plants and raising animals for food. This means that if water runs out, our food supply might follow. In India, it is estimated that future water shortages could reduce grain harvests by 25%. In a country where the population exceeds 1.2 billion people and is growing rapidly every year, this is a huge concern. India, like many developing countries, is already struggling to provide for its population. While most people in developed countries can get water at the turn of a tap, nearly four billion people elsewhere lack access to safe water, according to United Nations Development Report.
Rain forests are another endangered resource. While rain forests are critically important to humanity, they are rapidly being destroyed by human activities. The biggest cause of deforestation is conversion of forest land for agriculture. Often called the "Lungs of the Planet”, rain forests once covered 14 percent of the Earth's land surface, but this has shrunk to only six percent. Every second, an area of rain forest, the size of a football field, is destroyed at this rate. Rain forests will possibly disappear completely in less than 40 years.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 37 to 41.
In the future, cities will need to grow in a good way and not damage the environment. People who manage cities in the future will have to consider a large number of things, including transportation, energy use and green spaces. All of these will need to be improved to make future cities pleasant places to live.
Smart systems will run successful future cities, including self-driving vehicles powered by eco-friendly fuels, such as electricity produced by solar panels or wind power. Transportation by car within the city will actually be faster than now, because there will be less congestion. A lot more people will commute to and from work on subway systems and in buses with their own lanes. Most trucks will disappear from city streets because delivery of goods will be by drone.
Successful future cities will have a lot more green spaces than today, which will improve air quality and reduce, to some extent, the worst effects of climate change. Research has shown that green spaces improve mental health as well as physical health, so the people who live in these cities will generally be happier than today. Although it will be expensive, new parks must be built. In addition, green spaces will also be put on top of buildings, private and public, and trees will be planted alongside all streets.
