Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct 
answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42. 
 Since the world became industrialized, the number of animal species that have either become extinct 
or have neared extinction has increased. Bengal tigers, for instance, which once roamed the jungles in vast 
numbers, now number only about 2,300. By the year 2025, it is estimated that they will become extinct. 
 What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that this extinction will have been caused almost 
entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested in material gain but in 
personal gratification. This is an example of the insensitivity that is contributing to the problem of 
extinction. Animals such as the Bengal tiger, as well as other endangered species, are valuable parts of the 
world’s ecosystem. International laws protecting these animals must be enacted to ensure their survival - and 
the survival of our planet. 
 Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways. Some countries, in an 
effort to circumvent the problem, have set aside large amounts of land to animals reserves. They then charge 
admission prices to help make a payment on the costs of maintaining the parks, and they often must also 
depend on world organizations for support. This money enables them to invest in equipment and patrols to 
protect the animals. Another response to the increase in animal extinction is an international boycott of 
products made from endangered species. This has had some effect, but by itself it will not prevent animals 
from being hunted and killed. (Source: Reading Planet)
