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.
 Culture is the lens with which we evaluate everything around us; we evaluate what is proper or
improper, normal or abnormal, through our culture. If we are immersed in a culture that is unlike our own,
we may experience culture shock and become disoriented when we come into contact with a fundamentally
different culture. People naturally use their own culture as the standard to judge other cultures; however,
passing judgment could reach a level where people begin to discriminate against others whose “ways of
being” are different than their own—essentially, we tend to fear that which we do not understand.
Cultural diversity is important because our country, workplaces, and schools increasingly consist of
various cultural, racial, and ethnic groups. We can learn from one another, but first we must have a level of
understanding about each other in order to facilitate collaboration and cooperation. Learning about other
cultures helps us understand different perspectives within the world in which we live and
helps dispel negative stereotypes and personal biases about different groups.
In addition, cultural diversity helps us recognize and respect “ways of being” that are not necessarily
our own, so that as we interact with others, we can build bridges to trust, respect, and understanding across
cultures. Furthermore, this diversity makes our country a more interesting place to live, as people from
diverse cultures contribute language skills, new ways of thinking, new knowledge, and different
experiences.

correct answer to each of the questions from 44 to 50.
Environmentalists often fear that tourists will trample all over sensitive natural resource areas, but
tourism may bring the needed and only economic incentives to help drive conservation, said Bynum Boley.
Ecotourism and natural resource conservation already have a mutually beneficial relationship that is ideal
for creating a sustainable partnership.
"Ecotourism destinations benefit in the form of enhanced tourism competitiveness from the protection
of quality natural resources," he said. "Meanwhile, the conservation of these natural resources is
increasingly valued since these pristine natural resources are the foundation of the ecotourism industry and
the driver of all economic benefits associated with ecotourism."
Tourism is a $7.6 trillion global industry, provides 277 million jobs and is a primary income source
for 20 of the world's 48 least-developed countries. It also subsidizes environmental protection and helps
protect, conserve and value cultural resources that might otherwise be undervalued by the host community,
Boley said. In the newspaper, Boley and co-author Gary Green said that despite past tension between the
tourism industry and environmentalists, the two should team up as allies to fight off increasing conversion
of land away from its natural state, Ecotourists not only provide a boost to the economy in such places,
they can also motivate landowners into keeping the environment in its natural state instead of converting it
into something unsustainable. They could also influence the public perception of conservation, Boley
explained, which does not often favor environmental protection.
“The public has become increasing less prone to respond to environmental messages,” he said.
“Economic messages are needed in order to attract the public's interest.” Too often, Boley and Green
said, unique natural resource areas are converted into urban, suburban and agricultural developments
without considering their ecotourism potential. In addition to the lost ecotourism revenue, there are a host
of negative environmental consequences such as biodiversity loss, water and food shortages and the land
being unable to mitigate the effects of climate change. These areas are not valued for their unique attributes
or the valuable natural resources they provide, Green said, “so we lose them.” Tourists have historically
been seen as having a negative impact on the environment. Critics complain that they violate fragile and
threatened natural environments while contributing to greenhouse gases from the increased number of
flights to these exotic and often remote locales. While these criticisms are justified, Boley and Green said
responsible programs promote education of ecological conservation and environmental sustainability,
fostering a greater understanding and appreciation of these exotic areas.
