Read the following passage and choose the best answers to 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.

Ecotourism is booming and many tour operators say this is helpful to nature. Every year, millions of people visit protected (31) ____ areas to observe rare species. However, a new report casts doubt on this form of tourism. The report, published in the journal "Trends in Ecology and Evolution", suggests that ecotourism damages more than (32) ____ nature. Researchers believe tourists disrupt animals in their natural (33) ____. They point to a recent event in Costa Rica where turtles had problems laying their eggs because of the many tourists who had gathered on the beach to watch them.
The report says that ecotourism is making animals bolder. A human presence makes animals tamer and less cautious about other animals. This could put them at (34) ____ of being attacked by their natural predators, so more of them will be killed. The report says that when animals interact with humans, "they may let (35) ____ their guard”. The report also says it is essential, “to develop a more comprehensive understanding of how different species in different situations respond to human visitation, and under what precise conditions human exposure might put them at risk".
Read the following passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions from 23 to 30.
1. Soil pollution is becoming an increasingly serious problem around the world. According to a recent UN report, the world's soils, which provide 95% of humanity's food, are facing great pressure. Industrial activities, mining, farming, and poor waste management are all contributing to soil contamination. As soil pollution increases, the health of the planet, along with the food we depend on, is at risk.
2. Soils play a vital role in supporting life on Earth. They support the growth of plants, which are the basis for our food supply. Moreover, soils are the second largest active store of carbon, after the oceans, and play a critical role in regulating the Earth's climate. They also support various ecosystems and wildlife and help to maintain biodiversity. Without healthy soils, our food production, water supply, and air quality would be negatively affected.
3. There are various factors that lead to soil pollution. Industrial pollution, mining, and farming practices are major contributors, along with poor waste management. Chemicals such as metals, pesticides, and plastics contaminate the soil, making it unsafe for food production and harming wildlife. Other pollutants, like pharmaceuticals and plastics, are adding to the problem.
4. Addressing this issue requires immediate action. The UN calls for governments, businesses, and people to work together to reduce pollution. This means using fewer harmful chemicals, supporting research to find solutions, and using better farming practices. Everyone needs to play their part to protect the soil. If we don't act now, soil pollution will keep getting worse, affecting our health, food, and the environment.
The word They in paragraph 2 refers to __________.

Read the following passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.
1. Packing school lunches is a daily task for many parents, but it also has a significant impact on the environment. The typical lunchbox often contains plastic wrap, disposable juice boxes, snack bags, and individually wrapped items. These materials are detrimental to the environment, as they take hundreds of years to break down. Much of this waste ends up in landfills or, worse, in oceans, where it poses a serious threat to wildlife. With so many children bringing lunch to school every day, the waste from plastic and packaging adds up quickly.
2. [I] Food waste is another major issue linked to school lunches. [II] Often, parents over-pack lunchboxes in an effort to ensure their children have enough food. [III] However, this leads to uneaten food being discarded, contributing to food waste and unnecessary packaging waste. Discarded food in landfills decomposes and releases methane, a harmful greenhouse gas, further damaging the environment. [IV]
3. To tackle these problems, there are simple changes that can help reduce both food and packaging waste. Using reusable containers instead of single-use plastics eliminates the need for plastic wrap. Another important step is involving children in meal planning and packing. By teaching them about portion sizes and helping them choose foods they enjoy and are likely to eat, parents can reduce the amount of uneaten food that gets thrown away. Choosing fresh, unprocessed foods, which usually require less packaging, is another way to make lunchboxes more eco-friendly.
4. Ultimately, small changes in how we pack school lunches can make a big difference in reducing waste and protecting the environment. By being more conscious of our choices, we can help ensure a healthier planet for future generations.
The word eliminates in paragraph 3 is OPPOSITE in meaning to __________.

Bad weather
Lisa
I live in the north of Finland. We’re used to snow there, but one year we had a very bad snowstorm. When we woke up one morning the snow was nearly as high as the house. It covered our car and our garden, and we couldn’t open our front door. We didn’t have any electricity, and it was dark and cold. Luckily, we were prepared, and we had a radio with batteries, a torch and warm clothes. For me it was like an adventure, but my mum and dad were very worried.
Hannah
My family and I often go sailing, but last summer we had a bad experience. The day began well. It was a hot and sunny so we decided to take the boat out. An hour later the weather changed very suddenly. The wind became stronger, clouds covered the sun, it started to rain and the sea became very rough. I thought we were going to die. Luckily, after a few hours the storm passed, but it was the scariest day of my life.
Paula
My village is near the sea, and a few winters ago something very strange happened. The wind became very strong and big waves started crashing over the harbour edge onto the road. Overnight, the temperature dropped so low that the seawater turned into ice. The next day the sea looked like a giant ice rink. There was also ice on the roads and the cars. Luckily nobody was hurt, but it was the strangest weather I’ve ever experienced.
Who says that she couldn’t leave her house because of the bad weather?
