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 17 to 23.
People travel for a lot of reasons: Some tourists go to see battlefields or religious shrines. Others are looking for culture, or simply want to have their pictures taken in front of famous places. But most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie on. Northern Europeans are willing to pay a lot of money and put up with a lot of inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it. Residents of cities like London, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam spend a tot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short, and much of the rest of the year in the rain. This is the reason why the Mediterranean has always attracted them. Every summer, more than 25 million people travel to Mediterranean resorts and beaches for their vacation. They all come for the same reason, sun! The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economies of Mediterranean countries. Italy’s 30,000 hotels are booked solid every summer. And 13 million people camp out on French beaches, parks and roadsides. Spain’s long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else. 37 million tourists visit yearly, or one tourist for every person living in Spain. But there are signs that the area is getting more tourists than it can handle. The Mediterranean is already one of the most polluted seas on earth. And with increased tourism, it’s getting worse. The French can’t figure out what to do with all the garbage left by campers around St. Tropez. And in many places, swimming is dangerous because of pollution. None of this, however, is spoiling anyone’s fun. The Mediterranean gets more popular every year with tourists. Obviously, they don’t go there for clean water and solitude. They tolerate traffic jams and seem to like crowded beaches. They don’t even mind the pollution. No matter how dirty the water is, the coastline still looks beautiful. And as long as the sun shines, it’s still better than sitting in the cold rain in Berlin, London, or Oslo.

Dịch: Biển Địa Trung Hải đang ngày càng hút khách qua mỗi năm. Rõ ràng rằng du khách tới đó không phải do nước sạch hay sự yên tĩnh. Họ chịu đựng tắc đường và còn có vẻ thích các bãi biển đông đúc. Họ thậm chí không bận tâm tới ô nhiễm. Dù nước có bẩn đục tới đâu thì trông các bờ biển vẫn rất tuyệt. Và miễn sao mặt trời có chiếu nắng xuống, vẫn tốt hơn là sống dưới những cơn mưa lạnh ở Berlin, London, hay Oslo.

Dịch: Hầu hết du khách Châu Âu mong mỏi được nghỉ dưỡng trên những bãi biển tràn ngập ánh nắng. Những người Bắc Âu thậm chí sẵn sàng chi mạnh tay và chịu đựng được những bất tiện do ánh nắng mang lại bởi họ đang rất thiếu thứ đó. Người dân ở London, Copenhagen, và Amsterdam gần như là tận hưởng mùa đông trong tiết trời âm u bởi ban ngày rất ngắn và trời thì mưa quanh năm. Đó là lý do mà biển Địa Trung Hải rất thu hút họ.
