The United Nations Environmental Protection Agency says that an area of forest, the size of Sierra Leone, disappears every year. Trees are cut down for timber which is used for building, furniture, paper, and fuel. They are also destroyed to provide land on which to graze animals and build new villages and towns. But trees have many other important uses. Trees protect the land from a heavy downpour of rain and their roots help to hold the soil together.
Forests are also the home of many living things. The Amazon forest contains one-fifth of all the species of birds in the world. In our forests, there may be plants and animals which could help in the discovery of new medicines or crops.
To rescue and conserve our beautiful world, we must act cooperatively. Individuals, communities, nations, and international associations all have a responsibility. By learning to protect the natural environment, we can manage the earth’s resources for generations to come.

   A. minimal
   B. colossal
   C. infinitesimal
   D. wide
