As the fall semester went n, I learned mre f Stephen’s stry. It had taken him lnger t finish the assignments than mst yung peple. Family members, including his mther, kept reminding him that he was a failure. But he kept at it and didn’t take them t heart. He tld me that befre cming t ur cllege, n ne believed he culd manage it.

D yu knw that the ldest tree is a 5,000-year-ld bristlecne pine (芒松) lcated in the frests f Nevada? Unfrtunately, many f these precius ld-grwth trees are starting t disappear frm ur planet. The term ld-grwth refers t trees that are 150 years r lder. This means that many f the trees n Earth tday are yunger, smaller and have shrter lifen.
As the Earth’s temperature warms up due t climate change, it is having unintended effects n the wrld’s frests. When temperatures rise, trees clse their pres (气孔) t prevent the lss f misture, and this, in turn, slws dwn the prcess f phtsynthesis (光合作用). As a result, these trees are shrter and grw slwly, as well as have a high death rate. Climate change als increases the pssibility f drughts and wildfires. After wildfires, it takes a while fr the frest ecsystems t recver, and in sme cases, the frests are lst permanently. Trees that are stressed are als easy t be attacked by bacteria. Finally, humans have changed the frest landscape thrugh lgging.
There are sme wh claim that increased greenhuse gas emissin is helping trees grw faster because CO2 is needed fr phtsynthesis. While sme yunger trees may benefit frm this, we are seeing significantly mre lss f frests than gain.
Old-grwth frests are a strehuse f carbn, and when they die, the stred CO2 is released int the air wrsening the greenhuse effect. Older frests have higher bidiversity, which is beneficial as each rganism has a rle t play and there is a wide variety f species. As these frests disappear, species that nce called them “hme” are frced t relcate, affecting the bidiversity f thse ecsystems. Unfrtunately, sme endangered species are unable t adapt and g extinct.
With trees dying cntinuusly, will future generatins miss ut n the wnders f frests?
32. What is the main idea f the secnd paragraph?
A. Why bacteria may attack ld trees. B. Why ld-grwth frests are disappearing.
C. What leads t the rising temperatures. D. Hw glbal warming causes natural disasters.
33. What des the underlined wrd “them” in Paragraph 4 refer t?
A. Older frests. B. Species. C. Organisms. D. Rles rganisms play.
34. The last sentence f the text is actually ________.
A. a dubtB. a blame C. a suggestin D. a warning
35. What is the authr’s purpse f writing this text?
A. T urge peple t reduce gas emissin.
B. T explain the greenhuse effect n trees.
C. T call n peple t prtect ld grwth trees.
D. T intrduce the prcess f phtsynthesis.
