It is estimated that over 99 percent of all species that ever existed have become extinct. What causes extinction? When species is no longer adapted to changed environment, it may perish. The exact causes of species’ death vary from situation to situation. Rapid ecological change may render an environment hostile to species. For example,Doc24.vn temperatures may change and species may not be able to adapt. Food Resources may be affected by environmental changes, which will then cause problems. For species requiring these resources. Other species may become better adapted to an Environment, resulting in competition and, ultimately, in the death of species. The fossil record reveals that extinction has occurred throughout the history of Earth. Recent analyses have also revealed that on some occasions many species became extinct at the same time mass extinction. One of the best-known examples of mass extinction occurred 65 million years ago with the demise of dinosaurs and many other forms of life. Perhaps the largest mass extinction was the one that occurred 225 million years ago, When approximately 95 percent of all species died, Mass extinctions can be caused by relatively rapid change in the environment and can be worsened by the close interrelationship of many species. If, for example, something were to happen to destroy much of the plankton in the oceans, then the oxygen content of Earth would drop, affection even organisms not living in the oceans. Such change would probably lead to mass extinction. One interesting, and controversial, finding is that extinctions during the past 250 Million years have tended to be more intense every 26 million years. This periodic extinction might be due to intersection of the Earth’s orbit with cloud of comets, but this theory is purely speculative. Some researchers have also speculated tat extinction may often be random. That is, certain species may be eliminated and others may survive for no particular reason. species’ survival may have nothing to do with its ability or inability to adapt. If so, some of evolutionary history may reflect sequence of essentially random events. 45. The word “it” in line refers to A. environment B. species C. extinction D. 99 percent 46.

By far the most important United States export product in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries was cotton, favored by the European textile industry over flax or wool because it was easy to process and soft to tile touch. Mechanization of spinning and weaving allowed significantDoc24.vn centralization and expansion in the textile industry during this period, and at the same time the demand for cotton increased dramatically. American producers were able to meet this demand largely because of tile invention of the cotton gin by Eli Whitney in 1793. Cotton could be grown throughout the South, but separating the fiber or lint from the seed was laborious process. Sea island cotton was relatively easy to process by hand, because its fibers were long and seeds were concentrated at the base of the flower, but it demanded long growing season, available only along the nation\'s eastern seacoast. Short-staple cotton required much shorter growing season, but the shortness of the fibers and their mixture with seeds meant that worker could hand-process only about one pound per day. Whitney\'s gin was hand-powered machine with revolving drums and metal teeth to pull cotton fibers away from seeds. Using the gin, worker could produce up to 50 pounds of lint day. The later development of larger gins, powered by horses, water, or steam, multiplied productivity further. The interaction of improved processing and high demand led to the rapid spread of the cultivation of cotton and to surge in production. It became the main American export, dwarfing all others. In 1802, cotton composed 14 percent of total American exports by value. Cotton had 36 percent share by 1810 and over 50 percent share in 1830. In 1860, 61 percent of the value of American exports was represented by cotton. In contrast, wheat and wheat flour composed only percent of the value of American exports in that year. Clearly, cotton was king in the trade of the young republic. The growing market for cotton and other American agricultural products led to an unprecedented expansion of agricultural settlement, mostly in the eastern half of the United States---west of the Appalachian Mountains and east of the Mississippi River. 55. The main point of the passage is that the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries were time when A. the European textile industry increased its demand for American export products B. mechanization of spinning and weaving dramatically changed the textile industry C. cotton became profitable crop but was still time-consuming to process D. cotton became the most important American export product 56.

According to the passage, one advantage of sea island cotton was its A. abundance of seeds B. long fibers C. long growing season D. adaptability to different climates 60. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage about cotton production in the United States after the introduction of Whitney\'s cotton gin? A.
