Read the passage and decide whether the statements are TRUE (T), FALSE (F) or

Ecological balance is the stability of each species’ population within an
environment. However, this state can be upset by the introduction of new species, the
sudden extinction of animals, natural disasters or man-made problems. Throughout
history, there have been a variety of environmental issues. Some of the most serious
problems are the activities of preparing and fighting wars, which can cause serious
environmental damage. During the Vietnam War, for instance, dense forests covering
large green areas were carpet bombed, resulting in the habitat of numerous species being destroyed.
The ecological balance has been seriously affected by how the world’s population
has increased from the industrial age. We have been clearing plants and trees, changing
the way to use the land and expanding paved areas for our development. These activities
have an impact on both the water and soil quality and ecology. Due to the increasing water
demand of different industries, water has been extracted from deeper wells in further
areas. In addition, increased paving would not only reduce the amount of water vapor but
also contribute to groundwater pollution. Those issues have gotten worse in recent years and caused many consequences.
Scientists have been carrying out the solutions to ecological imbalance for the past
two decades. Hopefully, we can deal with the negative effects of industrial development,
and more endangered species will be saved in the next 50 years.
Question 31. The ecological imbalance can be caused if one species disappears unexpectedly.
Question 32. The habitat destruction in the Vietnam War was caused by bombing.
Question 33. The need for water has been decreasing since industrialization.
Question 34. Human activities have prevented all species populations from increasing.
Question 35. There haven’t been any solutions to ecological issues.
