  1970 was the World Conservation Year. The United Nations wanted everyone to know that the world is in danger. They hoped that governments would act quickly to conserve nature. Here is one example of the problems. At one time there were 1,300 different plants, trees and flowers in Holland, but now only 860 remain. The others have been destroyed by modern man and his technology. We are changing the earth, the air, the water and everything that grows and lives. We can't live without these things. If we continue like this, we shall destroy ourselves.

  What will happen in the future? Perhaps it is more important to ask “What must we do now?” The people who will be living in the world of tomorrow are the young people today. A lot of them know that conservation is necessary. Many are helping to save our world. They plant trees, build bridges across rivers in forests, and so on. In a small town in the United States a large group of girls cleaned the 11-kilometre-long banks of their river. Young people may hear about conservation through a record called “No One's Going to Change Our World”. It was made by the Scatles, Cliff Richard and other singers. The money from it will help to conserve wild animals.

(1) There are fewer plants, trees and flowers in Holland now because ________.

[  ]

A.there has been a lot of conservation in Holland

B.Holland does not need so many plants, trees and flowers

C.many plants, trees and flowers do not grow there any longer

D.some plants, trees and flowers are dangerous

(2) We shall destroy ourselves if we change ________.

[  ]

A.the places
B.our rivers and forests
C.our ways
D.the government of Holland

(3) What is the most important thing for us to do to save our world?

[  ]

A.We should plant more trees and flowers.

B.We should clean the banks of our rivers.

C.We should know what will happen in the future.

D.We should know what we must do and begin to do it now.
