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.
People travel for a lot of reasons: Some tourists go to see battlefields or religious shrines. Others
are looking for culture, or simply want to have their pictures taken in front of famous places. But
most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie on.
Northern Europeans are willing to pay a lot of money and put up with a lot of inconveniences
for the sun because they have so little of it. Residents of cities like London, Copenhagen, and
Amsterdam spend a lot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short, and much of the rest
of the year in the rain. This is the reason why the Mediterranean has always attracted them. Every
summer, more than 25 million people travel to Mediterranean resorts and beaches for their vacation.
They all come for the same reason, sun!
The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economies of Mediterranean countries. Italy’s
30,000 hotels are booked solid every summer. And 13 million people camp out on French beaches,
parks and roadsides. Spain’s long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else. 37
million tourists visit yearly, or one tourist for every person living in Spain.
But there are signs that the area is getting more tourists than it can handle. The Mediterranean is
already one of the most polluted seas on earth. And with increased tourism, it’s getting worse. The
French can’t figure out what to do with all the garbage left by campers around St. Tropez. And in
many places, swimming is dangerous because of pollution.
None of this, however, is spoiling anyone’s fun. The Mediterranean gets more popular every
year with tourists. Obviously, they don’t go there for clean water and solitude. They tolerate traffic
jams and seem to like crowded beaches. They don’t even mind the pollution. No matter how dirty the
water is, the coastline still looks beautiful. And as long as the sun shines, it’s still better than sitting
in the cold rain in Berlin, London, or Oslo.

 Endangered species
Endangered species are those that are at risk of becoming extinct. With an increase in
environmental pressures, over 40% of all animals are considered to be endangered. Only a few of
these species make it on to the "endangered animals" list. Endangered animals are protected by law
in many countries. These laws prevent people from hunting them and create areas called "reserves"
where they can live.
Once a species is classified as "endangered", many conservation organizations may try to help
by breeding animals in captivity. Some of these are then released into the wild or into reserves
where they will be safe as houses. Some species of animals which have been saved in this way
include the sea otter, the American bison and the island fox. Many other species are still at death's
door.
If this situation make you see red, there are many ways in which you can contribute to saving
endangered species. You can donate money to an endangered species fund. You can stop global
warming by using less electricity or by riding your bike to school. You can recycle and clean up your
neighborhood beaches, lakes, and rivers.
