According to a different source, these are the passages that come with this question:
From "How Water Loss Affects Biodiversity":
<em>"When a region experiences a significant drought, many animals may die from lack of water and food. [...] If tourism declines due to high wildlife casualties, then the locals who depend on income from tourism will lose their livelihood. People may then turn to farming to earn money, but crops require water to grow. This can place further strain on the water supply and worsen the original problem of the drought."</em>
From "Water from the Air: Cloud Forests":
<em>"Once cloud forests are cleared, the damage can be irreversible. The cloud cover, which is so essential to their livelihood, disperses. The soil degrades and erodes, washing down the mountain slopes. Many species vital to the ecosystem die off."</em>
In these passages, the authors employ very similar language to describe the cycle that can take place in certain regions due to environmental degradation. In the first example, the author focuses on the effects of drought, and how this can impact the livelihood of people. He talks about the decline in tourism, and the effect on agriculture. He uses phrases with negative connotations such as "significant drought," "lose their livelihood," "further strain" and "worsen the original problem." All of these allow the author to explain the problems that arise in such a situation. On the other hand, the second passage also talks about the problems of a particular ecosystem, in this case, the loss of cloud cover. However, the article conveys a less negative or emotional tone. Moreover, the author does not mention how this loss affects human beings.

Answer:
Graphs show a pattern in something that we are following. So by using those patterns on the graphs, we can see how the process that we are following is changing and we can conclude that without anything drastic happening the process will continue with the same pattern.
An example would be a pattern in weight loss. If a graph shows that a person is losing weight 1 pound per week we can conclude that the next week the person will have 1 pound less. This will only change if the person starts eating more which would be a drastic change to the pattern.
<span>Real and Nominal GDP differ on what they measure. The Real GDP measures goods and services in the economy with prices adjusted for inflation, while Nominal GDP just takes the prices of the current year. The difference and the point of this would be that if one measures Nominal GDP you don't know whether the GDP went up because there were more goods and services produced or because the inflation rate went up. Real GDP measures the actual growth of the economy with adjusted prices to one similar base year. So you can see that the problem with using nominal GDP to measure the growth of the economy is that one doesn't know whether the economy grew or whether the value of the dollar just fell (aka inflation went up). Hope this helps!</span>
