following

passage and

mark

the letter

A, B,

C or

D

on

yoar

answer sheet to indicute the

conect

dnswer to each of the questions.

There are three

valid

arguments

to

support

the

preservation

of

endangered species.

An

aesthetic

justification

_contends

that biodiversity

contributes

to the quality of life

because many

of the

endangered plants and animals are

particularly

appreciated

for

their unique physical beauty. The aesthetic role of nature

in all

its diverse forms is reflected

in

the art and literature

of

every culture, attaining symbolic status

in

the spiritual

life

of many groups. According to the proponents of the aesthetic argument, people need nature

in

all its diverse and beautiful forms as part of the experience of the

world.

Another argument that has been put forward, especially by groups in the medical

and pharmacological

fields,

is that

of

ecological self-interest.

By

preserving

all

species, we retain a balance

of

nature that

is ultimately

beneficial

to

humankind. Recent research on global ecosystems has been cited as evidence that every species contributes important

or

even essential

functions

that may be necessary

to

the survival

of

our

own

species. Some advocates

of

the ecological argument contend that important chemical compounds

derived from rare plants may contain the key to a cure for one of the

diseases currently threatening human beings.

If

we do not protect other species, then they cannot protect us.

Apart from

human advantage

in

both the aesthetic and ecological arguments, the proponents

of

a moral

justification

_{contend that}

all

species have the

right to

exist, a

viewpoint

stated

in

the United Nations World Charter

forNature,

created

in1982.

Furthermore,

if

humankind views

itself

as the stewards

of

all the creatures on Earth, then

it is

incumbent upon human beings

to

protect

them,

and

to

ensure the continued existence

of all

species.

Moral justification

has been extended

by

a movement called "deep ecology", the members

of which

rank the biosphere higher than people because the continuation

of life

depends on this larger

perspective. To carry their

argument

to its logical

conclusion,

all

choices must be made

for

the biosphere, not for people.
