How is the extinction of the mastodons related to the rise of agriculture?

There is no connection. The mastodons were hunted to extinction in the Old World over 10,000 years before agriculture developed. The only tenuous connection is that without large mammalian herbivores to hunt, mankind had to domesticate animals and grow crops to replace the foods source lost. Considering that there was such a large interim, however, the extinction of mastodons and mammoths cannot be the sole or most important cause in this.

What mass extinction was responsible for the extinction of the dinosaurs?

Some believe it was a natural occurring ice age.

Others say it resulted from the impact of an asteroid, comet, or meteor that released enough debris into the atmosphere to trigger a "impact winter" that blocked sunlight from reaching the ground and prevented plants needing photosynthesis from growing resulting in the starvation of dinosaurs and other creatures.

It could also have been the great flood that has been recorded all over the world and the dinosaurs never made it into Noahs ark :)

Did any animals become extinct this year?

That isn't a simple question to answer. Animals don't become extinct in a matter of months or even years. Long-term factors slowly reduce the population. The fewer animals there are, the more congested the gene pool becomes and the smaller the knock that is needed to push the species over the edge. Extinction is a gradual process, and there are many cases where 'extinct' animals have been rediscovered, tens or even thousands of years after they were believed to have died out. Cases in point: Caelocanth and Leadbeater's Possum. An animal is classified as extinct when no living specimens have been (reputedly) sighted for more than (I think this is accurate) ten years. So it's impossible to say what animals have died out this year. If the last sighting of the species was last year and in ten years time there has not been another, that animal will be said to have become extinct this year.
