Half of the planet’s population lives in cities, yet they consume 75% of the world’s resources and create most of their pollution. This means that all governments are going to have to create effective recycling plans. In cities where recycling schemes have been successful, it is possible to recycle 95% of all household waste. It takes 30 – 40% less energy to make paper from recycled materials than it does to make it from trees. Statistics show that there is a growing awareness of the importance of recycling, and countries such as Sweden already recycle much of their waste.

As the burning of fossil fuel is a major cause of pollution we will have to turn to other energy sources and what could be a better source than the sun? Solar energy is getting cheaper and can produce power even in cloudy conditions. The Japanese have already developed solar-electric roof tiles which are going to make entire buildings self-sufficient, greatly cutting down the need for fossil fuel.

Who consumes 75% of the world’s resources?

Read the following passage and choose the best answer for each question.

Tigers are one of the most powerful and graceful animals in the world. The different species that still exist today, namely the Bengal, Indochina, Siberian, South China, and Sumatra tigers are in danger of becoming extinct. Due to irresponsible hunting, the Bali, Caspian, and Java tigers have already become extinct. This could soon happen to the other species too.

In the past, tigers were considered pests. With a smaller area to hunt, as man had taken up more of the land to build upon, the tigers found less area for themselves to hunt. They thus turned to farms to get their food. Farmers’ livestock were attacked by these tigers. People were then encouraged to hunt and kill these animals with the promise of rewards. Even after the threat of tigers on livestock was over, the man continued to hunt tigers, this time for recreation. Poachers too hunt tigers for their body parts knowing that the skin of tigers is much sought after. Bones and other organs are also used as ingredients in traditional Chinese medicine. Although killing is illegal, it is still being carried out unless it is stopped, the remaining species of tigers will soon become extinct too.

Men continue hunting tigers even they are no longer pests because _____

The three phases of human memory are the sensory memory, the short-term memory, and the long-term memory. This division of the memory into phases is based on the length of time of the memory.
Sensory memory is instantaneous memory. It is an image or memory that enters your mind only for a short period of time; it comes and goes in under a second. The memory will not last longer than that unless the information enters the short-term memory.
Information can be held in the short-term memory for about twenty seconds or as long as you are actively using it. If you repeat a fact to yourself, that fact will stay in your short-term memory as long as you keep repeating it. Once you stop repeating it, either it is forgotten or it moves into long term memory.
Long-term memory is the huge memory tank that can hold ideas and images for years and years. Information can be added to your long-term memory when you actively try to put it there through memorization or when an idea or image enters your mind on its own.

The three phases of memory discussed in the pasage are differentiated according to _______.
