Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, Cor D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 30 to 34.
	In 1818, Luke Howard published The climate of London in which he identified emerging problem: urban development was having a direct impact on the local weather. The early 1800s was a time of great expansion for London and Howard noticed that temperatures in the city were gradually becoming higher than those in rural areas. We now refer to these areas as Urban Heat islands. The difference in temperature is usually greater at night and the phenomenon occurs in both winter and summer. Experts agree that this is due to urban development, when open green spaces are replaced with asphalt roads and tall brick or concrete buildings. These materials retain heat generated by the Sun and release it through the night. In Atlanta, in the US, this has even led to thunderstorms occurring in the morning rather than, as is more common, in the afternoon. Officials there are advising builders to use light-coloured roofs in a bid to reduce the problem.
	Large cities around the worlds are adopting strategies to combat this issue and it is not uncommon to find plants growing on tops of roofs or down the walls of large buildings. In Singapore, the government has pledged to transform it into a city within a garden and, in 2006, they held an international competition calling for entries to develop a master plan to help bring this about. One outcome was the creation of 18 "Supertrees". These metal constructions are made to resemble very tall trees and range in height from 25m to 50m. Each one is a vertical freestanding garden and is home to exotic plants and ferns. Their structure allowed the designers to create an immediate rainforest canopy without having to wait for trees to reach such heights. They contain solar panels used to light the trees at night and also containers to collect rainwater, making them truly self- sufficient.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, Cor D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 35 to 42.
	A hole has opened in the ozone layer above the Arctic and looks set to become the largest on record for the region. The hole looks set to break up in the coming weeks but not before setting a new record in ozone layer depletion at the North Pole.
The ozone layer is a protective shield in the Earth’s stratosphere which absorbs some of the ultraviolet radiation reaching us from the sun. Without the ozone layer, it would be nearly impossible for anything to survive on the planet. In Antarctica, the thickness of the ozone changes with the season. The freezing winters lead to high- altitude clouds combining with ozone-damaging chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), which have been lingering in the atmosphere for decades, to thin out the layer. The North Pole region is different, where the weather is typically warmer and doesn't create high- altitude clouds.
This year, unusually cold temperatures and powerful winds formed a "polar vortex" in the Arctic, creating the frigid conditions that have led to a vast ozone depletion, about three times the size of Greenland. Scientists are watching and waiting to see what happens next but it appears the new ozone layer depletion in the Arctic will surpass smaller holes recorded in 1997 and 2011. Marcus Rex, an atmospheric scientist at the Alfred Wegener Institute in Germany, told Nature that the Arctic ozone hole didn’t threaten human health but over the next month, there was a possibility it might drift over more populated areas. In that case, he recommended more sunscreen. Last month there was good news for the ozone layer, when a study found that the hole in the southern hemisphere had significantly shrank due to a 1987 international treaty, the "Montreal Protocol", which banned the use of CFCs.
Antara Banerjee, a CIRES Visiting Fellow at the University of Colorado Boulder, who also works at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), led the study. "The emissions of ozone-depleting substances that were responsible for the ozone hole - the CFCs from spray cans and refrigerants - started to decline around 2000, thanks to the Montreal Protocol," she told The Independent.
