Tourism is an important part of the global economy and eco-tourism has grown (21)
________ than any other sector in the industry recently. Eco-tourism aims to be the
most sustainable, environmentally friendly kind of tourism possible. The term ‘eco-
tourism’ has been used (22) ________ 1983 to refer to vacations that are spent in
natural environments without disturbing or damaging natural habitats. Profits from this
type of tourism generally help support the local economy and (23) ________ projects.
Quite often, eco-tourism is done in remote parts of our planet which not many tourists
have ever seen before. Therefore, it is also a great way to experience new cultures and
original lifestyles. Unfortunately, (24) ________ eco-tourism tries its best to keep the
adverse impact on our environment to a minimum, chances are that the local wildlife
will still be disturbed to a certain extent. Let’s look at Kenya, where trips on safari are
usually in the morning. This is also the time when lions go hunting. However, the eco-
tourists (25) ________ many other animals away, meaning that lions in the area have to

probably just prefer to be left alone.

VI. Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.
Forests are vital to life on Earth. We all depend on forests in one way or another for
survival. First of all, forests are often called the ‘lungs of the planet’. It is because trees
have the ability to provide an essential of life for all living creatures on our planet –
oxygen, and the power to purify the air we breathe by removing harmful gases like
carbon dioxide. Through a process called photosynthesis, leaves pull in carbon dioxide
and water, and use the energy of the sun to convert this into chemical compounds such
as sugars that feed the tree. As a by-product of that chemical reaction, oxygen is
produced and released by the tree. It is believed that one large tree can provide a day’s


supply of oxygen for up to four people. Moreover, forests help prevent soil erosion and
retain soil nutrients. The roots of rainforest trees and vegetation hold the soil in place
and help water soak into the ground instead of flowing over its surface. Tree foliage
helps rainwater go into the soil rather than wash over it, and reduces the force of
raindrops on the soil. Rows of trees which are planted closely together can work like a
windbreak. It helps limit the force of the wind and protect the top most fertile layer of
the soil from being carried away easily. In addition, forests can also soak up excess
rainwater, preventing run-offs and damage from flooding.
26. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The importance of forests in our life B. How photosynthesis works
C. How forests affect human beings D. Forests bring lots of benefits to agriculture
27. The word ‘purify’ in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to __________.

28. Why are forests considered as the lungs of the planet?
A. Because forests maintain the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
B. Because forests absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen through the process of photosynthesis.
C. Because forests convert water and carbon dioxide into chemical compounds.
D. Because forests use the energy of the sun to remove harmful gases like carbon dioxide.
29. Which part of the trees helps minimize the impact of raindrops on the soil?
A. The vegetation B. Roots of the trees C. Rows of trees D. Tree foliage
30. According to the passage, all of the following statements are true EXCEPT __________
A. Forests protect the soil from erosion.
