Critical Reading Questions


Answers
343.
e. Answer choices aare all unauthorized logging practices per-
formed by Metsähallitus in Finland. Choice is incorrect
because it refers to another country.
344.
c. Calling for a moratorium means to cease or stop an activity or
concept. You can deduce this correct answer from the clue in
line 17, halt.
345.
b. The author’s tone can best be characterized as an urgent warn-
ing. The passage exposes an illegal logging practice that threat-
ens to destroy forests in Finland. The author’s genuine concern
rules out choices and d, and there is nothing in the passage to
suggest that the author is either secretly angry, choice c, or in a
state of panic, choice e.
346.
d. Though Greenpeace is clearly out to inform the reader of bad
logging practices in Finland, it is not trying to rally support for
their organization (choice e); rather, their goal is to promote
awareness, and through awareness, change. Choice a’s sugges-
tion that other forests are endangered is false, and choices and
are not ideas put forth by the passage.
347.
d. The Great Barrier Reef does not cause erosion; it prevents it.
All of the other choices are true and can be found in the 
passage.
348.
e. According to the passage, 2,010 km is approximately 1,250
miles. So, twice as many km (4,020) would be approximately
twice as many miles (2,500).
349.
b. The phrase ill effects of that precedes the words erosion and putre-
faction means that putrefaction is a negative consequence, as is
erosion. The other choices are either neutral, cd, and e, or
positive, a.
