The poaching crisis wiping out Africa’s elephants is costing the continent’s economies millions in lost tourism
revenue, according to a new study. Researchers looked at visitors and elephant data across 25 countries, and modeled
financial losses from fewer visitors in protected areas due to the illegal wildlife trade, which has caused elephant
numbers to plummet by more than 100,000 in the last decade.

The study system combined visitor numbers across 164 protected areas in 25 countries with forest and savannah
elephants, and elephant population data from 2009 to 2013, to reach a “per elephant” value in terms of tourism
income. They conclude that Africa was most likely losing $26m in tourism revenue a year. Around $ 9m of that is lost
from tourists’ direct spending, such as staying at hotels and buying crafts, with the rest through indirect value in the
economy such as farmers and other suppliers supporting the tourist industry.

The study, published in the journal Nature Communications, found that in most cases the revenue losses were
higher than paying for stronger anti-poaching measures to keep elephant populations stable. Dr. Robin Naidoo, the
paper’s lead author and senior conservation wildlife scientist at WWF and his team found. In the case of central Africa’s
forest elephants, which are harder for tourists to see and therefore attract fewer visitors, the costs of protecting them

exceed the benefits from tourism. Demand from south-east Asia has seen the price of ivory triple since 2009 and it is
estimated that one elephant is killed every 15 minutes. Corruption, a lack of resources, and, most importantly,
increasingly sophisticated poachers have hamstrung African countries’ efforts to stem the trade.

Naidoo said that the research was not suggesting economic issues should be the only consideration when protecting
elephants, but framing the poaching crisis as a financial one could motivate African governments and communities. “It
gives an additional reason for some groups of people, who may not necessarily be motivated by intrinsic reasons for
conversation, to engage with biodiversity conservation. It makes it clear to them that it’s not just in the best interests of
the world to conserve this stuff, but tangible reasons for a whole different group,” he said.

Question 22: The overall profit that the continent lost a year can be estimated to _______.

A. 25 million USD B. 9 million USD C. 26 million USD D. 100,000 USD

Question 23: The word “them” in paragraph 3 refers to _______.

A. elephants B. visitors C. resources D. efforts

Question 24: Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. Across the continent, the amount of money spent on protecting the elephant is smaller than the loss tourist
industry is suffering from.

B The number of tourists reduces because now it is more difficult for them to see the elephants in the wild.
C. One reason why elephants are killed in mass volume is from the increasing market of ivory in South East Asia.
D. Relating poaching to financial benefits can be considered as one of the solutions to the problem.

Question 25: Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. To get to the conclusion, scientists compared the changes in number of tourists and number of elephants in
2009.

B. Protecting elephants is for both the practical and immaterial reasons.

C. The only reason why illegal poaching is so difficult to stop is corruption.

D. There is an argument over the differences in the balance between the loss and the cost to protect the elephants.

Question 26: The word “plummet” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _______.

A. descend B. vary C. stabilize D. linger

In Britain, the average young person now spends more money on games each year than on going to the cinema or
renting videos. But is this necessarily a bad thing? For years, newspaper reports have been saying that children who
spend too much time playing computer games become unsociable, bad- tempered, even violent as a result. But new
research, carried out in both Europe and the USA, (33) ________ that the opposite may be true.

(34) ________, playing some of the more complicated games may help people of all ages to improve certain skills.
Researchers claim that this is because the games make the brain work harder in certain ways, like (35) ________
sounds and movements quickly and identifying (36) ________ they are. The fact that people play the games repeatedly
means that they get a lot of practice in these skills which are therefore likely to become highly developed.

Social skills may benefit, too. Researchers in Chicago think that fans of first- person shooter games such as
“Counterstrike” are better than non-players when it comes to building trust and co-operation, and that this helps them
to make good friendships and become strong members (37) ________ their communities. So rather than giving up
computer games, perhaps young people need to spend more time on them?

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 questions from 43 to 50

In 2003, an unusually large number of customers arrived without warning in the carpet department of Macy's
Department Store in New York. The assistants couldn't see why all of them were so interested in buying exactly the
same carpet. In 2006, 4,000 people arrived with MP3 players and headsets at a London railway station and started
dancing at a set time. As no music could be heard, this looked very strange. Police were even called to make sure that
trains continued to run on time, but when they arrived the dancers had gone. In March 2013, more than 2,000 people
gathered in Seoul, South Korea, complete with musical instruments, and started to dance. Many were students from
Sungsin Girls' High School - they joined other Earth Hour supporters and collected a staggering 150,000 signatures
from local citizens in support of the campaign. In Korea, an estimated 12 million people participated in Earth Hour 2013.
These are three examples of 'flash mob' events, when a crowd of people suddenly come together in a public place,
perform an unusual action, and disappear as quickly as they had appeared. They are organized using electronic media
such as mobile phones or the internet.

To their fans, flash mobs are simply a chance to have some light-hearted, if rather silly, fun. However, when just
under 2,000 people got together in San Francisco for an enormous pillow fight, it ended up costing thousands of
dollars. Unfortunately, a heavy rainstorm meant that the city was left covered with wet feathers, which caused streets,
shops, and a restaurant to be flooded, and ruined the local fountain. It took several days to put the damage right.
Norman Dito, head of the city's Recreation and Park Department said, 'In future, organizers of such events should

apply for permission beforehand and pay the standard fee to cover security, insurance, and cleaning up afterwards.
Sadly, I think this is unlikely to happen, since nobody knows who the organizers are, or when or where a flash mob will
take place next'.

Crimes associated with flash mobs are rare, but occasionally make international headlines. Sometimes referred to as
'flash robs' by the media, these start with the intent to destroy, or lead to the destruction of private property or
violence. Professor of Psychology Mark Leary explains that as social media adds the ability to recruit a large number of
people, individuals who would not rob a store on their own feel freer to misbehave without being identified. In
Germany, the authorities in some cities have taken things even further by strictly enforcing an already-existing law that
says a special permit must be obtained to use a public space for any event.

A. how the shoppers had got there B. where the shoppers had come from

Question 44: The police were called to the London railway station to _____.

A. prevent the trains departing late B. arrest the dancer

C. prevent people watching the event D. make sure no one was injured

Question 45: What does the writer say about the pillow fight in San Francisco?

A. People helped to clean the streets after the fight.

B. The fight was filmed and put on the Internet.

C. Some shops closed before the fight started.

D. Because of the fight, the city had to spend lots of money.

Question 46: What does Mark Leary say about people who take part in “flash robs”?
