1) Read the statement and answer the question that follows:
High levels of fertilizer and pesticides, needed when farmers try to produce high yield of the same crop year after year,
pollute water supplies. Experts therefore urge farmers to diversify their crops and to rotate their plantings yearly. To
receive governmental pricesupport benefits for a crop, farmers must have produced that same crop for the past several
years.

Topic: JAT02 S2_P6
1) Read the following excerpt and answer the questions that follow.
Coral reefs are one of the most fragile, biologically complex, and diverse marine ecosystem on Earth. This ecosystem is one
of the fascinating paradoxes of the biosphere: how do clear, and thus nutrientpoor, waters support such prolific and
productive communities? Part of the answer lies within the tissues of the corals themselves. Symbiotic cells of algae known
as zooxanthellae carry out photosynthesis using the metabolic wastes of the coral thereby producing food for themselves,
for their corals hosts, and even for other members of the reef community. This symbiotic process allows organisms in the
reef community to use sparse nutrient resources efficiently. Unfortunately for coral reefs, however, a variety of human
activities are causing worldwide degradation of shallow marine habitats by adding nutrients to the water. Agriculture, slash
andburn land clearing, sewage disposal and manufacturing that creates waste byproducts all increase nutrient loads in
these waters. Typical symptoms of reef decline are destabilized herbivore populations and an increasing abundance of algae
and filterfeeding animals. Declines in reef communities are consistent with observations that nutrient input is increasing in
direct proportion to growing human populations, thereby threatening reef communities sensitive to subtle changes in
nutrient input to their waters.
The passage is primarily concerned with:
[Question ID = 10268]
1. Describing the effects of human activities on algae in coral reefs
[Option ID = 41066]
2. Explaining how human activities are posing a threat to coral reef communities
[Option ID = 41067]
3. Discussing the process by which coral reefs deteriorate in nutrientpoor waters
[Option ID = 41068]
4. Explaining how coral reefs produce food for themselves
[Option ID = 41069]
Correct Answer :
Explaining how human activities are posing a threat to coral reef communities
[Option ID = 41067]

The passage suggests which of the following about coral reef communities?
[Question ID = 10269]
1. Coral reef communities may actually be more likely to thrive in waters that are relatively low in nutrients
[Option ID = 41070]
2. The nutrients on which coral reef communities thrive are only found in shallow waters
[Option ID = 41071]
3. Human population growth has led to changing ocean temperatures, which threatens coral reef communities
[Option ID = 41072]
4. The growth of coral reef communities tends to destabilize underwater herbivore populations
[Option ID = 41073]
Correct Answer :
Coral reef communities may actually be more likely to thrive in waters that are relatively low in nutrients
[Option ID = 41070]
