Câu hỏi: Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the answer to each of the question.
In a world with increasing levels of carbon in the atmosphere, these new findings imply that warmer weather and longer growing seasons will not allow temperate deciduous trees to take up more carbon dioxide. The study’s predictive model suggests that by 2100, when tree growing seasons are expected to be between 22 and 34 days longer, leaves will fall from trees between three and six days earlier than they do now.
This has significant implications for climate change modelling. If we accept that the amount of carbon taken up by deciduous trees in temperature countries like the UK will remain the same each year regardless of the growing season, carbon dioxide levels will rise more quickly than was previously expected. The only way to change this will be to increase the capacity of trees to absorb carbon.
Plants that aren’t limited by the amount of nitrogen available may be able to grow for longer in the warming climate. These are the trees which can take nitrogen from the air, such as alder. But these species will still lose their leaves at roughly the same time as always, thanks to less daylight and colder temperatures.
But on the upside, with the prospect of some trees losing their leaves earlier and others losing them at the time they do now, there might be the prospect of prolonged autumnal colours – and more time for us to kick through the leaves.

Kiến thức: Đọc hiểu
Giải thích:
Từ they trong đoạn 1 đề cập đến ______.
Xét các đáp án:
A. leaves: lá
B. tree growing seasons: mùa sinh trưởng của cây
C. trees: cây
D. six days: sáu ngày
Thông tin: The study’s predictive model suggests that by 2100, when tree growing seasons are expected to be between 22 and 34 days longer, leaves will fall from trees between three and six days earlier than they do now.
Tạm dịch: Mô hình dự đoán của nghiên cứu cho thấy rằng vào năm 2100, khi mùa sinh trưởng của cây được dự kiến kéo dài hơn từ 22 đến 34 ngày, lá cây sẽ rụng sớm hơn từ 3 đến 6 ngày so với hiện tại.
Từ thay thế của “they” phù hợp theo ngữ cảnh là từ “leaves”.
Vậy đáp án đúng là A
