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 43 to 50. 
 Humans are bringing about another global-scale change in the atmosphere: the increase in 
what are called greenhouse gases. Like glass in a greenhouse, these gases admit the Sun's light but 
tend to reflect back downward the heat that is radiated from the ground below, trapping heat in the 
Earth's atmosphere. This process is known as the greenhouse effect. Carbon dioxide is the most 
significant of these gases – there is 25 percent more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere today than 
there was a century ago, the result of our burning coal and fuels derived from oil. Methane, nitrous 
oxide, and CFCs are greenhouse gases as well. 
 Scientists predict that increases in these gases in the atmosphere will make the Earth a warmer 
place. They expect a global rise in average temperature somewhere between 1.0 and 3.5 degrees 
Celsius in the next century. Average temperatures have in fact been rising and the years from 1987 
to 1997 were the warmest years on record. Some scientists are reluctant to say that global warming 
has actually begun because climate naturally varies from year to year and decade to decade, and it 
takes many years of records to be sure of a fundamental change. There is little disagreement, though, 
that global warming is looming. 
 Global warming will have different effects in different regions. A warmed world is expected 
to have more extreme weather, with more rain during wet periods, longer droughts, and more 
powerful storms. Although the effects of future climate changes are unknown, some predict that 
exaggerated weather conditions may translate into better agricultural yields in areas such as the 
western United States, where temperature and rainfall are expected to increase, while dramatic 
decreases in rainfall may lead to severe droughts and plunging agricultural yields in parts of Africa, 
for example. 
 Warmer temperatures are expected to partially melt the polar ice caps, leading to a projected 
sea level rise of 50 centimeters by the year 2050. A sea level rise of this magnitude would flood 
coastal cities, force people to abandon low-lying islands, and completely inundate coastal wetlands. 
Diseases like malaria, which at present are primarily found in the tropics, may become more 
common in the regions of the globe between the tropics and the polar regions, called the temperate 
zones. For many of the world's plant species, and for animal species that are not easily able to shift 
their territories as their habitat grows warmer, climate change may bring extinction.
