Questions 26 - 30: Read the following passage and then choose the best answer the questions by circling the

The planet Earth is 4,600 million years old. It is difficult for us to think about such an enormous length of time
because it has little meaning for us. We can, however, simplicity the idea to make it more understandable. We can
compare the planet Earth to a person of forty-six years of age. Nothing is known about the first seven years of this
person’s life. Very little information exists about the middle period either. It was only at the age of forty-two that the
Earth began to flower.
Dinosaurs and great reptiles did not appear until one year ago, when the planet was forty five. Mammals only
arrived eight months ago. In the middle of last week, man – like apes became ape – like men and began to communicate
with each other. Last weekend, the Ice Age covered the Earth.
Modern man has only been around for four hours. During the last hour man discovered agriculture. The Industrial
Revolution and the rise of large cities began just sixty seconds ago.
During that short time, modern man has made a rubbish tip of the Earth. In one minute, he has increased his
numbers to terrible proportions and has caused the death of hundreds of species of animals. He has robbed and destroyed
the planet in his search for fuels. Now he stands, like a violent, spoiled child, delighted at the speed of his rise to power,
on the edge of the final mass destruction and of killing all the life which exists in the solar system.
