(1.0 point) All animal life on the planet Earth depends on a sufficient supply of oxygen for its day-to-day survival. The trees that dot our landscapes provide a large portion of this supply: trees take carbon dioxide from the surrounding air and in return they create a sizeable amount of oxygen. Ironically, human beings, who cut down large numbers of trees to create land, shelter, and energy, pose the most significant threat to the survival of the world-wide tree population. But humans are not the only force that threatens the survival of these mighty members of the plant kingdom. Trees- among the oldest and largest organisms on the planet- face many other dangers. Lightning, fire, and other natural disasters, for example, can destroy many square miles of old-growth forest in a matter of hours. Disease-causing fungi and insect pests can also eradicate entire populations of trees within a particular region. After humans, however, the factor which most determines whether a particular species of tree will prosper in a given area is climate. In particular, the amount of rainfall and the range of temperatures that a region experiences strongly affect the distribution of tree species. All species of trees have evolved from plants that flourished many centuries ago in the warm and wet tropical regions of the planet. As the distribution of trees has spread to other regions, the differing climates of these regions have effectively limited the types of trees that 6
8. can live there. The greater the range of temperature and rainfall that a species of tree can withstand, the more adaptable it is and therefore the wider its range of distribution. 1.

Fire C. People D. Energy supplies 5. The word “face” is closest in meaning to . A. express B. confront C. survive D. cause 6.
