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
Conservation conflicts arise when natural-resource shortages develop in the face of steadily
increasing demands from a growing human population. Controversy frequently surrounds how a resource
should be used, or allocated, and for whom. For example, a river may supply water for agricultural
irrigation, habitat for fish, and water-generated electricity for a factory. Farmers, fishers, and industry
leader vie for unrestricted access to this river, but such freedom could destroy the resource, and
conservation methods are necessary to protect the river for future use.
Conflicts worsen when a natural resource crosses political boundaries. For example, the headwaters,
or source, of a major river may be located in a different country than the country through which the river
flows. There is no guarantee that the river source will be protected to accommodate resource needs
downstream. In addition, the way in which one natural resource is managed has a direct effect upon other
natural resources. Cutting down a forest near a river, for instance, increases erosion, the wearing away of
topsoil, and can lead to flooding. Eroded soil and silt cloud the river and adversely affect many organisms
such as fish and important aquatic plants that require clean, clear freshwater for survival.

A. Conservation conflicts B. Agricultural irrigation
C. The headwaters of a major river D. Natural-resource shortages
Question 37. What does “supply” in line 3 mean?

C. when freedom could destroy the resource.
D. when eroded soil and silt cloud affect many organisms.

for a factory

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
Tourism will always have an impact on the places visited. Sometimes the impact is good but
often it is negative. For example, if lots of people visit one place, then this can damage the environment.
The question is — how can we minimize the problems without preventing people from travelling and
visiting places? The main aim of ecotourism is to reduce the negative impact that tourism has on the
environment and local people. The idea is to encourage tourists to think about what they do when they
visit a place. It's great to talk about protecting the environment, but how do you actually do this? There
are a number of key points. Tourists shouldn't drop litter, they should stay on the paths, they shouldn't
interfere with wildlife and they should respect local customs and traditions. Some people see ecotourism
as a contradiction. They say that any tourism needs infrastructure — roads, airports and hotels. The more
tourists that visit a place, the more of these are needed and, by building more of these, you can't avoid
damaging the environment. But, of course, things aren't so black and white. Living in a place of natural
beauty doesn't mean that you shouldn't benefit from things like better roads. As long as the improvements
benefit the local people and not just the tourists, and the local communities are consulted on plans and
changes, then is there really a problem? In 2002 the United Nations celebrated the "International Year of
Ecotourism". Over the past twenty years, more and more people have started taking eco-holidays. In
countries such as Ecuador, Nepal, Costa Rica and Kenya, ecotourism represents a significant proportion
of the tourist industry.
Question 32: What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Benefits and drawbacks of ecotourism. B. A brief introduction about ecotourism.
C. Some Dos for ecotourists. D. Some Don'ts for ecotourists.

A. damage B. environment C. impact D. tourism
Question 34: According to the passage, what does the ecotourism aim at?
A. preventing tourists from travelling. B. stopping ecotourism altogether
C. finding a new form of tourism. D. reducing the tourism problems
Question 35: According to the passage, which of the following is not mentioned as an activity to protect
the environment?
A. not hunting animals for food. B. not interfering with wildlife
C. respecting local customs and traditions. D. not littering
