Упр.2a Модуль 3 Going Green ГДЗ Spotlight 10 класс
Приведем выдержку из задания из учебника Юлия Ваулина, Джунни Дули 10 класс, Просвещение: 2 a 1 Why are beaches important for the loggerhead sea turtle? 2 What do the young turtles find when they hatch from their eggs? 3 How can people help protect the loggerhead sea turtle? The Loggerhead Sea Turtle Did you know that in the last 500 years, 844 species — like the passenger pigeon, the dodo, and the golden toad — are known to have died out? Or that by the year 2100 some scientists believe that half of the world’s species may be extinct? That could be one species every 20 minutes, or 27,000 a year! At the moment, experts say that up to 16,000 species are under threat. In most cases, human activity is the greatest danger to these species. One of these species is the loggerhead sea turtle, which is finding that the beaches it uses to lay its eggs are becoming increasingly popular with tourists. When the eggs begin to hatch in August, there are already thousands of humans enjoying the sun on the beaches. An area that was used by turtles for thousands of years is now the territory of sunbathers, swimmers and ice-cream vendors. Humans cause terrible damage to the eggs. Nests can be walked on by tourists, destroying the eggs. In addition, the newly-born turtles find it hard to find the sea at night with so much artificial light around. Some people, however, are trying to make a difference. Since 1982, the Sea Turtle Protection Society of Greece has done its best to protect this rare species. With help from the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), it has bought a beach popular with the turtles and makes sure that tourists stay away. Every year over 500 volunteers from all over the world come to help with the society’s work for the turtles. Thanks to their help, more and more young turtles are finding their way to the sea. You can help. If you would like to become a volunteer or would like to learn about other ways you can help the loggerhead sea turtle, please check out the website of the Sea Turtle Protection Society of Greece at http://www.archelon.gr. *Цитирирование части задания со ссылкой на учебник производится исключительно в учебных целях для лучшего понимания разбора решения задания.
