VII. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
The Galapagos Islands in the Pacific Ocean are one of the natural wonders of the world. The
Galapagos are home to many rare animals, such as giant tortoises, sea birds and
dolphins.The islands first became famous in 1859 when Charles Darwin wrote about them in
his book, On The Origin of Species. When Darwin visited the islands, he found there a key
to that great mystery of mysteries - the first appearance of new life on this earth.
Today the islands belong to Ecuador, and 97% of the area is a national park. However,
despite this protection, the park is in danger. The most serious threat comes from illegal
fishing, which is slowly destroying marine life. Every day, illegal nets trap and kill sharks,
pelicans and dolphins. Another threat comes from animals brought over by people who have
come to live on the islands. Dogs and cats eat the sea birds, and rats and pigs eat turtle eggs.
Although tourism is seen as a positive thing, it too has caused problems.
Today the Galapagos is still a wonderful place, but how long will this last? The answer
lies in the attitude of everyone who can make a contribution - the Galapagos belongs to the whole world.
