II/ Read the passage below carefully, and then choose the best answer:
Conservation conflicts arise when natural-resource shortages develop in the face of
steadily increasing demands from a growing human population. Controversy frequently
surrounds how a resource should be used, or allocated, and for whom. For example, a
river may supply water for agricultural irrigation, habitat for fish, and water-generated
electricity for a factory. Farmers, fishers, and industry leaders vie for unrestricted access
to this river, but such freedom could destroy the resource, and conservation methods are
necessary to protect the river for future use.
Conflicts worsen when a natural resource crosses political boundaries. For example, the
headwaters, or source, of a major river may be located in a different country than the
country through which the river flows. There is no guarantee that the river source will be
protected to accommodate resource needs downstream. In addition, the way in which one
natural resource is managed has a direct effect upon other natural resources. Cutting
down a forest near a river, for instance, increases erosion, the wearing away of topsoil,
and can lead to flooding. Eroded soil and silt cloud the river and adversely affect many
organisms such as fish and important aquatic plants that require clean, clear freshwater
for survival.

demands from a rising human population
