81 Review 1 In the beginning there lived one man and o ne w o man, To g lai and Toglibon. Their À rst children were a boy and a girl. When they w ere old eno ugh, the bo y and the girl w ent far away across the waters seeking a good place to live. Nothing more was heard of them until their children, the Spaniards and Americans, came back. After the À rst boy and girl left, other children were born to the couple; but they all remained at Cibolan on Mount Apo with their parents, until Toglai and Toglibon died and became spirits. Soon after that there came a great drought which lasted for three years. All the waters dried up, so that there were no rivers, and no plants could live. “ Surely,” said the people, “ Manama is p unishing us, and w e must g o elsewhere to À nd food and a place to dwell in.” So they started out. Two went in the direction of the sunset, carrying with them stones from Cibolan River. A fter a long journey they reached a place where there were broad À elds of cogon grass and an abundance of water, and there they made their home. Their children still live in that place called Magindanau, because of the stones which the couple carried when they left Cibolan. Tw o c hild ren o f To g lai and Toglibon went to the south, seeking a home, and they carried with them women’s baskets baraan. When they found a good spot, they settled down. Their descendants, still dwelling there, are called Baraan or Bilaan, because of the women’s baskets. So two by two the children of the À rst couple left the land of their birth. In the place where each settled a new people developed, and thus it came about that all the tribes in the world received their names from things that the people carried out of Cibolan, or from the places where they settled. All the children left Mount Apo except two a boy and a girl. Hunger and thirst had made them too weak to travel. One day when they were about to die the boy crawled out to the À eld to see if there w as one living thing, and to his surprise he found a stalk of sugarcane growing lustily. He eagerly cut it, and enough water came out to refresh him and his sister until the rains came. Because of this, their children are called Bagobo. Taken from http:www.pitt.edu

When fossil fuels, or other fuels, such as wood or peat, which contain carbon are burned, carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere. Vehicles also giv e o ut, and so ad d , carbo n dioxide to the atmosphere. The Earth’ s atmo sphere allo w s most of the Sun’s rays to pass through it to heat the Earth’s surface. The Earth re Á ects much of the heat energy back into the atmo sphere, but much o f this re Á ected radiation cannot escape because gases such as carbon dioxide absorb it. They grow warm and send heat radiation back to Earth. This is the greenhouse effect.

Insecticid es are so metimes called pesticides. Farmers and gardeners usually use insecticides to protect plants and animals. Apple trees must be sprayed, or many of the apples w ill become w ormy w ith moth larvae young. Many livesto ck o w ners spray their livestock or dip them in an insecticide solution to protect them from Á ies, lice, mites, and ticks. These pests spread such diseases as cattle fever and sheep scab. Diseases such as malaria and typhus can be controlled by using insecticides to treat the breeding places of the insects that spread the diseases. Agricultural pesticides prevent a monetary loss of about 9 billion each year in the U.S. For every 1 invested in pesticides, the American Farmer gets about 4 in return. These benefits, however, must be weighed against the costs to society of using pesticides, as seen in the banning of ethylene dibromide in the early 1980s. These costs include human poisonings, À sh deaths, honey bee poisonings, and the contamination of livestock products. The environmental and social costs of pesticide use in the U.S. have been estimated to be at least 1 billion each year. Thus, although pesticides are valuable for agriculture, they also can cause serious harm. Taken from The W orld Book Encyclopedia, 2007 Insecticides Questions 26–30 are based on this text. 26.

The Greenhouse effect is raised temperature at the planet’s surface as result of heat energy being trapped by gases in the atmosphere. Certain gases cause the atmosphere to act like the glass in a greenhouse. As a result, the temperature of a planet’s surface may be higher than it otherwise would be–on Earth about 33º C 59ºF higher. The main g ases that p ro d uce the greenhouse effect on Earth are water vapour and carbon dioxide. Scientists suspect that an increased discharge of carbon dioxide from human activity notably motor transport and industry is contributing to global warming. G reenho u se g ases are f airly transparent to the short-wavelength, visible and ultraviolet light that brings most of the Sun’s energy, though about 25 is reflected by the atmosphere, and 25 is absorbed by it. About 5 is re Á ected from the Earth, which absorbs the rest. Some of this absorbed energy rises again in thermals or in the heat of evaporated moisture. The rest is reradiated as long–wavelength infrared rays. The infrared radiation emitted by the Earth is partially transmitted straight back into sp ace. A much greater amo unt is abso rbed by the greenho use gases, w hich are very ef À cient absorbers of the long infrared w avelengths. Some of the absorbed heat is reradiated into space, but a lot is radiated downwards to fuel global warming. Half the world’s population lives on low–lying coastal areas, such as the Bay of Bengal which is particularly vulnerable to Á ooding. Global warming could cause the sea level to rise. A 2m 6ft rise in sea level would inundate close to 20 of Bangladesh and require tens of millions to be evacuated. A larger rise of 5m 16ft would drown close to half the country.
