Park in Montana, USA, has lost 40% of its glaciers since 1966. In other words, it has become smaller, and
many local species have become endangered because they have (4)_________ their homes. Consequently,
the park conservation has been in trouble since then. In some marine national parks, global warming has
also caused the sea temperature to (5) _______and negatively affected miles of coral reef as well as

effects on the environment. The question is, how can we minimize the problems while still allowing people
to travel and visit places?
The main goal of eco-tourism is to limit the bad impact of tourism on the environment and local people.
The task is to encourage tourists to think about what they do when they visit an area. There are many key
points. Tourists should not litter, should stay on the paths, should not interfere with wildlife and should
respect local customs and traditions. Some people consider eco- tourism to be a double-edged sword that
has both advantages and disadvantages. They argue that tourism requires infrastructure such as roads and
airports. The more tourists visit a destination, the more of infrastructure is necessary so that the tourists can
stay and benefit the local community financially. However, it’s difficult to avoid damaging the
environment and develop local tourism at the same time. Eco-tourism can only develop in the right way if
governments can deal with the negative effects and make sure that modern improvements benefit the local
people and environment, not just the tourists.
In 2002, the United Nations General Assembly celebrated the International Year of Eco-tourism (IYE) to
evaluate global eco-tourism experiences. More and more people have chosen eco- holidays over the past 20
years. Eco-tourism truly plays a key role in the tourism industry in many countries like Kenya, Costa Rica,
Ecuador and Nepal.

A. Benefits and drawbacks of eco-holidays B. Something that eco-tourists shouldn’t do

2. What does the word “it” in paragraph 1 refer to?
A. damage. B. impact. C. environment D. tourism
3. According to the text, what does the eco-tourism aim at?

C. Reducing the negative effects of tourism D. Finding a new form of tourism
4. What is the meaning of the word “avoid” in paragraph 2?
A. present. B. pretend. C. prevent. D. protest
5. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
A. The local people need more buildings.
B. New infrastructure is necessary if they can benefit the local people and natural habitats.
C. Tourists shouldn’t use infrastructure on eco-holiday.
D. The government plans to build more infrastructure for ecotourists.
 Conservation is the sensible use and protection of natural resources including plants, animals, mineral
deposits, soils, clean water, clean air, and fossil fuels such as coal, petroleum, and natural gas to ensure an
adequate supply for future generations.
Natural resources are grouped into two categories, renewable and nonrenewable. A renewable resource
is one that may be replaced over time by natural processes, such as fish populations or natural vegetation,
or is inexhaustible, such as solar energy. The goal of renewable resource conservation is to ensure that
such resources are not consumed faster than they are replaced.
Nonrenewable resources are those in limited supply that cannot be replaced or can be replaced only
over extremely long periods of time. Nonrenewable resources include fossil fuels and mineral deposits,
such as iron ore and gold ore. Conservation activities for nonrenewable resources focus on maintaining an
adequate supply of these resources well into the future.
1. What is the purpose of conservation mentioned in the passage?
A. To make use of natural resources

Exercise 3: Read the following passage, and decide the statements are true (T) or false (F).
Once there were lots of pandas in the mountain of Western China. Today they are becoming extinct.
The reason is that they cannot find enough food. Pandas eat bamboo leaves. They do not like another food.
The bamboo grows very slowly. It can take 10 years for a bamboo cane to grow from a seed to a big plant.
Some types of bamboo have seeds every 60 years. Pandas must wait many years for their food to grow.
While the bamboo is growing, pandas do not have enough leaves to eat.
Farmers are using more and more of the land on the mountain side to grow food for man. The farmers
cut down the bamboo. Bamboo leaves become less plentiful. Pandas cannot find enough food to eat. They
starve and die.
China and World Wildlife Fund (WWF) are trying to save the panda. In 1979 they began to set up
special parks where pandas live. One such park is the Wolong Reserve in Sichuan. The Wolong Reserve has
the highest number of pandas in the world. Scientists come here to study the panda’s eating and mating
habits. By learning more about the panda’s habits, scientists can save it from extinction.
1. There are many pandas in China nowadays ________
2. Some kinds of bamboo grow quickly. ________
3. The favourite food for pandas is the bamboo leaves. ________

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions from 32 to 36.
Man and most animals need a constant supply of water to live. Farmers need water for their crops.
Hydroelectric dams hold back needed water and provide power for homes and industries.
Trees and grass, and other plant life play an important part in the natural circulation of water, thus help
conserve it. Without plants, most water would run off as soon as it falls, taking away valuable soil. Rapid
runoff would cause frequent floods, and leave little water during dry seasons.
Nature has many ways of conserving and controlling water. But man often upsets the water balance in
his desire to grow more crops. He drains ponds, swamps and wet land. He ploughs under the natural soil,
cuts timber, and dredges and straightens streams. These changes reduce natural storage of water and speed
runoff.
Water can be held on the land by planting vegetation. Forests and grass should be planted where there
are natural growths. Dams built across rivers help hold back the water. Reservoirs behind the dams store
water during wet seasons for use in dry seasons. Dams help prevent floods by controlling the flow of
water.
Note: to dredge = to make a river deeper
32. What is the topic of the passage?
A. Water circulation B. Water conservation C. Controlling water D. Use of water

34. Which is one of the ways that men do to affect the water balance?
A. shortening streams B. cutting down trees
C. preserving water D. protecting ponds and swamps
35. What is NOT a natural way of conserving and controlling water?
A. ponds B. streams C. swamps D. reservoirs
36. What do people use reservoirs for?
A. growing plants B. building dams C. storing water D. preventing floods
