VIII. 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 following questions.

1.

Victoria Falls

Victoria Falls in Zambia is famous for its kilometre-long natural waterfall that stuns tourists as water plunges

354 feet, generating mass clouds of white mist. Although Victoria Falls is a popular tourist attraction, the

fall’s showstopping views are slowly reducing into stretches of dry rock with spouts of low water flow –

which has left some visitors slightly disappointed.

While in the dry season the water levels usually slow down, experts have said that there’s been an

unprecedented decline in water levels in the past few years caused by rising temperatures in the region. This

not only affects the falls, but also the health of its ecosystem and the local economy.

Our planet is home to so many natural wonders that make earth the beautiful and diverse planet it is. However,

the impact of the climate crisis and the population’s growing carbon footprint means visiting these places may

not be possible for much longer.

The Amazon Rainforest

The Amazon Rainforest is the biggest tropical rainforest in the world. It covers about 40 percent of South

America. This rainforest is very important because it has many kinds of plants and animals. People call it "the

lungs of the earth" because it helps produce the oxygen we breathe.

Even though the rainforest is helpful to us, humans have already cut down about 12 percent of the trees. This

has changed the weather and the amount of rain in the area, which also affects the animals, plants, and even

The Birth of Seven Natural Wonders Seven Natural Wonders was created to celebrate and protect the original

7 Natural Wonders of the World. It’s very important that these wonders are recognized because they are

special, not because of money or business. A "Wonder" should be amazing on its own because of how

different and important it is. The people who started Seven Natural Wonders knew that our world has many

amazing places that could be called natural wonders. To recognize this, they started a project to find the top

7 natural wonders on each continent. These new wonders would be added to the original 7 Natural Wonders

of the World. Their goal was to name the 7 Natural Wonders of Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, South

America, and Oceania, which would add 49 new wonders to the list. They chose these places because they

are very special and important. The group allowed the public to vote on the wonders, but each person could

only vote one time. No one had to pay money or sponsor anything to vote. Experts from UNESCO and other

groups, along with scientists and people who work in tourism, also helped to choose the wonders. They made

sure to focus on how special each place was without any personal opinions. The public vote was important

for two reasons. First, it was to see if people’s choices were different from the experts’ choices. Second, the

public vote could help decide if there was a tie for the 7th and 8th spots. Luckily, the public and experts agreed

on the choices, so no tie-breaking was needed.

One of the more difficult things young people face when they want to travel is the lack offunds. During

summer holidays and possibly at weekends, they are able to take on part-time jobs, but the money they make

is just a drop in the bucket of what they need to travel far away. For example, traveling to Australia from Viet

Nam can be quite expensive just for an airline ticket, and to a lot of students wanting to travel, it can seem out

of reach.

For students wanting to travel to Australia and New Zealand in particular, however, they are in luck.

Although many countries offer working holidays, these two countries are well- known for offering them.

When a young person signs up to get a working holiday visa, he only pays for the round-trip airfare to get to

either place and only needs to carry some extra cash for incidentals. Once he is there, a job awaits where he

can earn some money.

Many of the jobs require little or no experience, such as picking fruit or working in a busy pub out in the

countryside. Some of the jobs require more experience that most people are unlikely to have, such as being a

certified welder to work for eight weeks on a farm. That shouldn't discourage you, though, because there is

always something to be found if you search hard enough.

There are many websites that advertise working holidays in Australia and New Zealand. If you have the

courage and are looking for a way to make a little money and see the world, it might be just the ticket you

were looking for.

Question 1. What can seem out of reach for young people?

A. Being able to find a part-time job

B. Being able to travel

C. Being able to get time off from school

D. Being able to earn money

Question 2. Which students are in luck according to the passage?

A. The ones who want to go to Australia and New Zealand

B. The ones who have part-time jobs

C. The ones who have airline tickets

D. The ones who are on holiday

Question 3. Where can people find working holidays advertised?

A. In magazines

B. On the radio C. In travel guidebooks D. On the Internet

Question 4. According to the passage, which statement is true?

A.Some working holidays are not paid.

B. People on working holidays must be from Australia or New Zealand

C. A young person needs a special visa to go on a working holiday.

D. Picking fruit is the only job available for young people on working holidays.

Question 5. Why would a student NOT want to take a working holiday?

A. Toearn money

B. To show how fearful he is

C. To see the world

D. To visit a new place

Yumi from Kyoto: For me, Kyoto is the most beautiful city in Japan. It’s also the oldest ĩity. It has many

Pavilion. There are also very good markets, and also really good shops, and some beautiful modem buildings,

too.

Murat from Istanbul: I think Istanbul is maybe the most beautiful city in the world, but of course I come

from Istanbul! The city is built on hills around the Bosphoros, and so there are beautiful views across the

bridges. Istanbul also has a very famous market called the Grand Bazaar. But these days we also have many

modern shopping centres and modern buildings and hotels. It’s really a fantastic city.

Claudia from Rio de Janeiro: Rio is one of the most exciting cities in South America... first of course

we have our famous beach, the Copacabana, and there are many mountains around Rio - the most famous is

stadium... the Macarana stadium, maybe the most famous football stadium in the world... it’s really a great

place.

Manna from St. Petersburg: You’ll really love St. Petersburg because there are so many I things to see.

The most famous is the Winter Palace, where the Tsars lived, and the Hermitage Museum which is a fantastic

art gallery, and we have a very beautiful river too, the River Neva, and of course churches and cathedrals.
