Over the last 200 years, humans have become the dominant species on earth. As a result, the natural world suffers     1    （severe）. At present, almost half of the planet’s land     2    （use）for agriculture and food production, forcing our wide spaces into dramatic retreat（消退）. The global rate of extinction is     3    （high）than it’s ever been, while the climate crisis continues to speed up.

Therefore, many environmentalists are turning     4     “rewilding”, which aims to prevent the     5    （disappear）of biodiversity. So, what exactly is rewilding? In theory, the concept is simple: restore land,     6     let nature take back control. Currently, there are hundreds of rewilding projects     7     （take）place across Europe, spreading from the UK all the way down to the eastern Balkans.

For these projects     8    （succeed）in the future, they need a special sort of person—highly skilled, and fiercely passionate individuals, or groups, willing to devote     9    （they）to the restoration of the wild. Because humans are responsible for the terrible state of the natural world, only significant human effort will make positive changes to     10     damage done.

All scientists subscribe     1     the view that it is human activity     2     has caused global warming. This activity is burning fossil fuels     3     (produce) energy.

As     4     result, a natural phenomenon     5     (call) the “greenhouse effect” has appeared. Without this phenomenon, the earth would be about thirty-three degrees Celsius     6     (cool) than it is. So, we need those gases. However, the global temperature will rise when we add huge     7     (quantity) of extra carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. We know that the levels of carbon dioxide     8     (increase) greatly over the last 100 to 150 years. The attitude of scientists towards this rise is     9     (complete) different. Some think that the trend would be a catastrophe while others are     10     (oppose) to this view, and they believe that any warming will be mild with few bad environmental consequences.

In a new cartoon named Turtle Journey, Greenpeace UK, an environmental organization,     1    (highlight) ocean destruction from the perspective of a family of sea turtles.

    2     (create) the film, Greenpeace UK teamed up with Aardman Animations, as well as Oscar-winning actors and stars. The    3     (power) film follows the family of turtles as they make their way across the seafloor to their home on a coral reef. “Our ocean     4    (drive) to breaking point during the past few years but it’s a story that doesn’t get told often enough,” says Will Mccallum, head of ocean at Greenpeace UK. Ocean damage is     5     (serious) affecting sea turtles and other sea creatures, many of which    6    (face ) with extinction at present.

“The story of this turtle family     7     (attempt) to get home in the damaged and changing ocean is a     8     (real) for many ocean creatures that are having their habitats destroyed due to human activity,” says actress Olivia Colman,    9    voices a character in the film. “It is my hope     10     this film can inspire more people to take action to protect our ocean.”
