the correct answer to each of the questions.
Scientists believe they now have scientific evidence to prove that ecosystems work better
when there is a greater variety of species within them. This biodiversity is being lost destroying
natural mechanisms that could repair the damage caused by man. 
Findings show that losing plants and animals is not only reducing our quality of life but
actually endangering our very existence. We cut down rich rainforests and replace them with one
species plantations, such as pine and eucalyptus. We plough up meadows rich in different grasses
and herbs and replace them with one grass, for instance rye or wheat. 
When a natural ecosystem is simplified the basic processes in the ecosystem are altered
and even damaged. Without their biodiversity, they are not able to serve as the natural cleaners of
our planet. No longer are they able to absorb the carbon dioxide that is being produced in excess.
The result is global warming, caused by the increase in the 'greenhouse effect', and ultimately, or
even sooner, there will be a change in the world's climate. 
27: Which of the following is the best title for the passage? 
A. How Ecosystems Work Better
B. The Loss of Biodiversity 
C. The Variety of Species
D. Natural Mechanisms 
28: What is the purpose of paragraph 2?

C. To give example of variety of species. D. To show how ecosystems can work better.

A. Animals
B. Plants
C. rain forests
D. species
30: The word "Findings" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______.
A. Expressions
B. Information
C. Inventions

natural ecosystems? 
A. The basic processes are altered
B. There is a loss of biodiversity

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.
Health promotion and disease prevention programs focus on keeping people healthy. Health
promotion programs aim to engage and empower individuals and communities to choose healthy
behaviors and make changes that reduce the risk of developing chronic diseases and other
morbidities. Defined by the World Health Organization, health promotion is: “The process of enabling
people to increase control over, and to improve, their health. It moves beyond a focus on individual
behavior towards a wide range of social and environmental interventions.”
Disease prevention differs from health promotion because it focuses on specific efforts aimed
at reducing the development and severity of chronic diseases and other morbidities. Wellness is
related to health promotion and disease prevention. Wellness is described as the attitudes and active
decisions made by an individual that contribute to positive health behaviors and outcomes. Health
promotion and disease prevention programs often address social determinants of health, which
influence modifiable risk behaviors. Social determinants of health are the economic, social, cultural,
and political conditions in which people are born, grow, and live that affect health status. Modifiable
risk behaviors include, for example, tobacco use, poor eating habits, and lack of physical activity,
which contribute to the development of chronic disease.
