23177 . Read the following passage and answer the Increasing every year questions: Forests are an important part of civilization. They not only form a considerable portion of the national wealth of a country, but also play an important role in maintaining the environmental balance. Indiscriminate felling of trees to enhance city areas is a threat to our civilization. We often forget that a peaceful and well-balanced co- existence of man-made civilization and nature is absolutely important for human existence on the earth. Indiscriminate felling of trees makes our planet less green and threatens the wildlife. Forests and trees have an enormous impact on the climate as they are instrumental in drawing rain to the earth. Deforestation has resulted in radical changes in our climate. The overall temperature of the planet is increasing at an alarming rate. The duration of seasons is fluctuating all over the world. The rate of rainfall is becoming erratic. The future of this planet is in trouble unless immediate attention is paid to this danger. According to the passage, Indiscriminate felling of trees results in-
  • A. An expansion of urban centers
  • B. Radical changes in our climate
  • C. Environmental balance
  • D. An increase in rainfall

23183 . Read the following passage and answer questions An alloy is a substance that is formed by combining a metal with other metals, or nonmetals. For example, brass is an alloy of the metals copper and zinc, and steel is alloy of the metal iron with the nonmetal carbon. The special characteristics of metals, such as hardness, strength, flexibility, and weight are called its properties. By the process of alloying it is possible to create materials with the exact combinations of properties for particular use. In the aircraft industry, there is a need for metals that are both strong and light. Steel is strong but too heavy, whereas aluminum is light but not strong. By mixing aluminum with copper and other metals, an alloy is created that is strong to withstand the stresses of flight, but light enough to reduce the cost of fuel to lift the aircraft. There is an important difference between the alloys created by us and the combination of metals that occur accidentally as impure metals.. Both are mixtures, but alloys are mixtures that have been deliberately combined in specific proportions for definite purpose. What is an alloy?
  • A. Metals melted in liquid form.
  • B. Industrial meterials which are not very good
  • C. A planned combination of materials for a specifice purpose.
  • D. Impure materials that occur accidentally.
