Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to
each of the following questions from 1 to 8.
There are approximately 8,000 species of birds in the world today. However, only a few of these are
widely recognized: sparrows, pigeons, eagles, parrots, and others. So, what about the lesser-known bird species?
According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), nearly one-third of the world's bird
species are now at risk of extinction, with some having populations of fewer than 1,000 individuals. Over the past
century, about 150 bird species have gone extinct.
Sadly, when we lose a bird species, we lose a piece of nature's balance. Birds play crucial roles in various
ecosystems, such as controlling insect populations, pollinating plants, and dispersing seeds. One example is the
honeycreeper, a brightly colored bird native to Hawaii. Honeycreepers are essential pollinators for certain tropical
flowers, and their unique feeding habits demonstrate a close relationship with their habitat.
Efforts are being made to save endangered bird species. In the Galapagos-Islands, conservation programs
focus on protecting habitats critical to birds like the Galapagos penguin. In India, special reserves help protect
endangered species like the Great Indian Bustard.
Technology also offers promising tools for bird conservation. Bird-watching apps, for example, allow
scientists and citizens alike to record bird sightings and monitor bird populations. These apps provide valuable
data for conservation efforts and enable people worldwide to appreciate and support bird diversity.
