READ AND EXPLORE
2 Read a text abut extinctin. Then check yur answers in Activity 1.
Extinctins, where entire species are wiped ut, are nt unusual in ur Earth’s histry, In fact, ver 90 percent f all species that ever lived are nw extinct. In the last 500 millin years, there have been five times when life n Earth has almst ended. These include the third mass extinctin, knwn as the “Great Dying”, which killed 90% t 96% f all species. And the fifth event, which ccurred 66 millin years ag, caused the death f the dinsaurs.
The reasns fr extinctins are varied, Accrding t scientists, they include vlcanic eruptins, asterids hitting the Earth frm space, changes in sea levels, the decrease f the xygen cntent f the sea and glbal warming. Many scientists say we are nw entering the Earth’s sixth mass extinctin. This time, human activity will be t blame.
Althugh it is nt unusual fr species t die ut naturally, the rate at which this is nw happening is cause fr cncern. A 2015 study by scientists wh were based at Brwn University and Duke University in the US, lked at hw quickly species die ut due t natural causes, that is, the “backgrund extinctin rate”.
They fund that human activity is causing species t die ut 1,000 times faster than nrmal. There is a lng list f reasns why s many species are dying ut: air and water pllutin frests being destryed, factry farming and verfishing. It is clear that human activity has negatively affected all ther species n Earth, including animals and plants.
If a sixth mass extinctin ccurs, scientists wh have studied the issue believe that up t three quarters f all species n Earth culd die ut. Of curse, as we humans depend n s many species fr ur survival, we wuld als be at risk f dying ut. Our wrld and ur lives depend n the balance in nature between animals and plants. Withut frests, we wuld have n air t breathe. And withut clean water we wuld be unable t survive.
Can a sixth extinctin be avided? Experts say that it is nt yet t late, if we take actin nw. This wuld mean we have t significantly change the way we live. Fr example, we need t take steps t save endangered species, including setting up special areas where plants! and animals can be prtected. We need t change hw we wrk and travel by using cleaner, mre natural surces f energy, such as wind and slar energy. We als need t imprve ur farming methds t reduce water, air and land pllutin, in shrt, if we want t survive. we need t stp destrying the planet that we live n and start t prtect it.
The Black Rbin
Black rbins are the birds that humans saved frm extinctin. In 1980, there were nly five black rbins left in the wrld. They all lived n a small island ff the cast f New Zealand. Only ne f thse birds, a female called Old Blue, was able t lay eggs. Wildlife wrkers began a prgramme fr raising black rbin chicks. They prtected Old Blue’s eggs, helped them t hatch, and tk care f the chicks. Thanks t their effrts, there are nw mre than 250 black rbins, and the ppulatin is spreading. T help them survive, peple are restring their habitats and remving small animals that hunt them, such as mice and cats frm the islands where they live.

3 Read the text. Cmplete the ntes. Then talk abut the different aspects f extinctins.
entire species are wiped ut The number f extinctins that have ccurred s far: five
the third mass extinctin killed 90% t 96% f all species; the fifth event, which ccurred 66 millin years ag, caused the death f the dinsaurs
vlcanic eruptins, asterids hitting the Earth frm space, changes in sea levels, the decrease f the xygen cntent f the sea, glbal warming
change the way we live; change hw we wrk and travel by using cleaner, mre natural surces f energy; imprve ur farming methds
4 Read again. Answer the questins.
What did scientists find ut in 2015?2 Why des the writer think the sixth mass extinctin will cme?
They fund ut that human activity is causing species t die ut 1,000 times faster than nrmal.
Because human activity has negatively affected all ther species n Earth, including animals and plants.
Why des the writer believe we’ll prbably die ut if 75% f the Earth’s species die ut.4 What did peple d in the case study t prtect black rbins? Which claim(s) did the case study supprt in the text?
Because we humans depend n s many species fr ur survival and ur wrld and ur lives depend n the balance in nature between animals and plants.
Peple prtected Old Blue’s eggs, helped them t hatch, and tk care f the chicks. Peple are restring their habitats and remving small animals that hunt them like mice and cats frm the islands where they live, The case study shwed that even in desperate situatins, we can d smething t help, In shrt, it’s never t late.
