The joys and tribulations of being a pet owner! During our lifetime most of us have some experience of either owning a pet or being in contact with someone who does. Is there such a thing as “the ideal pet”? If so what characterizes the ideal pet? Various factors influence one’s choice of pet, from your reasons for getting a pet to your lifestyle. For example, although quite a few pets are relatively cheap to buy, the cost of upkeep can be considerable. Everything must be into account, from food and bedding to vaccinations and veterinary bills. You must be prepared to spend time on your pet, which involves shopping for it, cleaning and feeding it. Pets can be demanding and a big responsibility. Are you prepared to exercise and an animal or do you prefer a more independent pet? How much spare room do you have? Is it right to lock an energetic animal into a confined space? Do you live near a busy road which may threaten the life of your pet? Pets as turtles and goldfish can be cheap and convenient, but if you prefer affectionate pets, a friendly cat or dog would be more . People get pets for several reasons, for company, security or to teach responsibility to children. Pets can be affectionate and loyal and an excellent source of the company as long as you know what pet suits you and your lifestyle.
Read the passage and answer the following questions.
Plants and animals will find it difficult to escape from or adjust to the effect of global warming. Scientists have already observed shifts in the lifecycles of many plants and animals, such as flowers blooming earlier and birds hatching earlier in the spring. Many species have begun shifting where they live or their annual migration patterns due to warmer temperatures.
With further warming, animals will tend to migrate toward the poles and up mountainsides toward higher elevations. Species living in unique ecosystems, such as those found in polar and mountaintop regions, are especially at risk because migration to new habitats is not possible. Projecting species extinction due to global warming is extremely difficult. Some scientists have estimated that 20 to 50 percent of species could be committed to extinction with 2 to 3 Celsius degrees of further warming. The rate of warming, not just the magnitude, is extremely important for plants and animals. Some species and even entire ecosystems, such as certain types of forest, may not be able to adjust quickly enough and may disappear.
Ocean ecosystems, especially fragile ones like coral reefs, will also be affected by global warming. Warmer ocean temperatures can cause coral to “bleach”, a state which if prolonged will lead to the death of the coral. Scientists estimate that even 1 Celsius degree of additional warming could lead to widespread bleaching and death of coral reefs around the world. Also, increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere enters the ocean and increases the acidity of ocean waters. This acidification further stresses ocean ecosystems.
Scientists have observed that warmer temperatures in the spring cause flowers to _____.
According to paragraph 2, when their habitats grow warmer, animals tend to move _____.
The pronoun “those” in paragraph 2 refers to______.
It is mentioned in the passage that if the global temperature rose by 2 or 3 Celcius degrees, _____.
The level of acidity in the ocean is increased by _____.
