Ex3. Read and choose the correct answer
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. agricultural B. major C. fresh D. aquatic

A. when natural-resource shortages increase in the features of gradually
increasing demands from a rising human population.
B. when a natural resource crosses political borders
C. when freedom could destroy the resource.
D. when eroded soil and silt cloud affect many organisms.
5. Which sentence below is NOT correct?
