- Q1
Read the texts carefully and answer the questions pertaining to it. Choose letter of the correct answer.
Solidarity is in fact the key to start this new way of life. Past generations and generations to come need to respect each other and the planet, and care for the community of life. One should never benefit from something now, which will eventually have a problematic effect on future generations. A practical example is that of genetic engineering. This technology opens up a new dimension for the world. It makes alteration of DNA possible. The immediate effects are very positive as they, for example, can make a plant produce more seeds and furthermore, no pests will feed on them. Yet, the downside to all these will only be seen in the future. Once the structure of DNA is altered, it would be impossible to change. Another negative impact that future brings will face is the fracture of the feeding cycle. Therefore, it is essential for all to protect one another, as all generations are interrelated, which means that whatever happens today speaks about the relationship of the present with past and future generations.
The paragraph suggests that ___________.
B. One has nothing to do with the past.
C. One’s failure can never be recovered.
A. The future is uncertain.
D. Whatever decision and action one does has an effect on the future.
