Exercise 6. Read the following passage. Choose TRUE if the statement is true, FALSE if the statement  is false. 

Nothing on earth is more majestic than a tall, spreading tree. Trees are our friends in our fight for a healthier  planet. This is how they help us. First, trees are the Earth's lungs. They remove pollutants from the air and  significantly improve air quality. Research shows that with billions of trees, we could remove two-thirds of  all the carbon dioxide created by human activities. Second, trees reduce the runoff of rainwater, so they can  reduce flooding. Moreover, if you enjoy sitting in the shade of a tree in the summer, you know that trees can  also lower air temperatures too. Trees growing beside a home can cool the roof and the air around the house.  Therefore, it reduces air conditioning costs. And don't forget that trees create habitats for many species of  plants and animals. If you want to plant trees to help save the planet, there are simple ways to get started. Plant  trees around your house. If enough people did that, it would make a big difference. 

26. Trees help remove pollutants from water.

27. Trees help remove carbon dioxide from the air. 

28. There is less flooding thanks to trees. 

29. You pay less for air conditioning if you plant trees. 

30. If everybody plants trees around their homes, it will improve the planet. 

Exercise 7. Rewrite the above sentence with the given beginning in such a way that the meaning stays  unchanged.

Exercise 5. Read the following and decide if the following sentences are True or False. It is a common misconception that those who take part in extreme sports or look for an “adrenaline rush” are  most likely to be young and male. This way of thinking makes extreme sports become viewed in a way that is  inaccessible to “normal people”. In fact, participation in extreme activities is beneficial to humans. Participants  from all sorts of extreme sports broaden their extraordinary sensory experience that is not usually available in  everyday life. This is because their ability to see, here and feel are all heightened during their participation.  For example, base jumpers often talk about an enhanced capacity to see every nook and cranny, shapes and  sizes of the rock even though they are travelling at 200 mph. What’s more, there is clear evidence that most  sensation-seekers develop positive relationships with the natural world and pro-environmental behaviors.  During their participation in extreme sports, participants feel like they are merging with the environment which  invariably turns into a feeling of being profoundly part of nature. This may be one reason why so many extreme  sports athletes spend a great deal of energy and time protecting the natural environment and working hard to  raise public awareness of its importance. 

21. Most people are under the impression that participants in extreme sports are young and male.

22. Participation in extreme sports does harm to human well-being. 

23. Extreme sports participation is unlikely to be suitable for the general population.

24. Participants in adventure sports can experience the feeling of merging with nature.

However, the biggest (26) ______ is that its rubber cover  easily wears (27) ______. The company should deal with it soon or customers will choose a better brand. 

Water-powered clock: If you like durable goods, this clock is a must-have item. I bought it eight years ago,  but it still works. It just stopped (28) ______ last week. I emptied it, filled it with some tap water and shook it  around a little. Then, it worked just like a new one. What impresses me is that the clock is made (29) ______
