Questions 1-8. Read the text carefully then answer the following questions.
Tourism will always have an impact on the places that people visit. Sometimes the impact is positive, but most of the time it is negative. For example, a large number of visitors in one destination can cause bad effects on the environment. The question is, how can we minimize the problems while still allowing people to travel and visit places?
The main goal of eco-tourism is to limit the bad impact of tourism on the environment and local people. The task is to encourage tourists to think about what they do when they visit an area. There are many key points. Tourists should not litter, should stay on the paths, should not interfere with wildlife and should respect local customs and traditions. Some people consider eco- tourism to be a double-edged sword that has both advantages and disadvantages. They argue that tourism requires infrastructure such as roads and airports. The more tourists visit a destination, the more of infrastructure is necessary so that the tourists can stay and benefit the local community financially. However, it’s difficult to avoid damaging the environment and develop local tourism at the same time. Eco-tourism can only develop in the right way if governments can deal with the negative effects and make sure that modern improvements benefit the local people and environment, not just the tourists.
In 2002, the United Nations General Assembly celebrated the International Year of Eco-tourism (IYE) to evaluate global eco-tourism experiences. More and more people have chosen eco- holidays over the past 20 years. Eco-tourism truly plays a key role in the tourism industry in many countries like Kenya, Costa Rica, Ecuador and Nepal.
