Q1: - read the following text carefully and answer the questions given below: ==============
The rainforest of the Amazon region of Brazil in South America covers five
percent of the worlds land surface and is home to at least 30 percent of the
worlds animals and plants. The area is also the home of 220,000 people from
about 180 different tribes who live deep in the forest. The rainforest itself is an
important environment but, because of its size and location, it also plays a vital
part in controlling the worlds climate.

It does this by taking in carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen. Recently, however,
large areas of the Amazon rainforest have been cut down to make more land for
farmers. In the last three years, for example, 70,000 square kilometers have been
destroyed this is the same as six footballs pitches every minute. Much of this
destruction, which leaves the land dry and dusty, is illegal.

Farmers use most of the new land to grow soya beans, which they export to
other parts of the world to be used as animal food. Millions of chickens in
western European countries are fed on South American soya beans. Increasingly,
some soya beans are also being turned into food for human consumption; many
vegetarian foods are based on soya beans.
Other areas of the rainforest are cleared by ranchers who use the land for their
cattle, by loggers who sell the valuable tropical hardwood from the trees they
cut down, or by oil companies who are trying to find more oil. These activities
help to improve the economy of the region, but at the expense of the future of the
global environment.
In addition to destroying ancient forests and changing the worlds climate,
deforestation is having a devastating effect on native population who are
dependent on the rainforest for everything they need, from food and tools to
medicines and shelter.
