The author is trying to convey that in recent years, the
extinction rate for many animal species has significantly increased. He began
his point in the first sentence of the excerpt: “Species are disappearing at an
accelerating rate through human action, primarily habitat destruction but also
pollution and the introduction of exotic species into residual natural
environments.” Then, he further emphasizes his point in the sentence: “As the
last forests are felled in forest strongholds like the Philippines and Ecuador,
the decline of species will accelerate even more.” Which is immediately followed
by another sentence that supports his argument: “In the world as a whole,
extinction rates are already hundreds or thousands of times higher than before
the coming of man.

Excerpt: Good morning teachers, students, and distinguished alumni—thank you all for joining me on this momentous occasion. I’m Mayor Kenndrick, and I’m thrilled to announce the launch of Wessex County’s first community garden here at South Falls High School. This magnificent project is funded by a grant from Green Planet Organics as part of their Gardens Grow Great Communities program. We’re so appreciative of their commitment to this amazing program. You might be wondering why we’re planting a garden at a high school. Unfortunately, recent statistics show that most high school students spend too much time indoors. We’re all guilty of wasting time in front of the computer or television when we could be outside getting fresh air and exercise. Most of you probably think that exercise involves running laps or spending hours inside a gym. In reality, exercising can be something as simple as planting seeds or pulling out weeds. Anything that gets your blood flowing is good for you and your body. Gardening has many therapeutic benefits. This program affords students the opportunity to commune with nature as part of a new curriculum that combines environmental science and physical education. Spending time in a garden also forges a connection between you and your natural habitat, enhancing your appreciation for the environment. This community garden will also facilitate social interaction between students and community members as they work toward a common goal.
