  3. Original Text "The Antarctic is the vast source of cold on our planet, just as the sun is the source of our heat, and it exerts tremendous control on our climate," [Jacques] Cousteau told the camera. "The cold ocean water around Antarctica flows north to mix with warmer water from the tropics, and its upwellings help to cool both the surface water and our atmosphere. Yet the fragility of this regulating system is now threatened by human activity."

  4. Highlighted/Underlined Text "The Antarctic is the vast source of cold on our planet, just as the sun is the source of our heat, and it exerts tremendous control on our climate," [Jacques] Cousteau told the camera. "The cold ocean water around Antarctica flows north to mix with warmer water from the tropics, and its upwellingshelp to cool both the surface water and our atmosphere. Yet the fragility of this regulating system is now threatened by human activity."

  5. Paraphrased Passage • According to Jacques Cousteau, the activity of the people in Antarctica is jeopardizing the delicate natural mechanism that controls the earth’s climate. He fears that human activity could interfere with the balance between the sun, the source of the earth’s heat, and the important source of cold from Antarctic waters that flow north and cool the earth’s atmosphere.

  6. Original Text Of the more than 1000 bicycling deaths each year, three-fourths are caused by head injuries. Half of those killed are school-age children. One study concluded that wearing a bike helmet can reduce the risk of head injury by 85 percent. In an accident, a bike helmet absorbs the shock and cushions the head.

One study concluded that wearing a bike helmet can reduce the risk of head injury by 85 percent. In an accident, a bike helmet absorbs the shock and cushions the head.

  8. Paraphrased Text The use of a helmet is important in reducing bicycling deaths, which are caused by head injuries 75% of the time. By absorbing shock upon impact, a helmet can reduce accidental injury by as much as 85%, saving hundreds of lives a year, half of which are school-aged children.
