2016年職稱英語《衛(wèi)生類》閱讀理解階段復習(3)

　　Demands for stronger protection for wildlife in Britain sometimes hide the fact that similar needs are felt in the rest of Europe.Studies by the Council of

　　Dr.Baum clearly remained a strong supporter of the view that natural environments needed.To be allowed to survive in peace in their own right.“No area could be expected to survive both as a true nature reserve and as a tourist attraction。”he went on.The short.sighted view that reserves had to serve immediate human demands for outdoor recreation(戶外娛樂)should be replaced by full acceptance of their importance as places to preserve nature for the future.

　　“We forget that they are the guarantee of life systems，on which any built-up area ultimately depends.”Dr.Baum went on.“We could manage without most industrial products，but we could not manage without nature.However, our natural environment areas，which are the original parts of our countryside，have shrunk(縮小)to become mere islands in a spoiled and highly polluted 1andmass.”
