In the United States, the 【C1】______ to protect plant and animal 【C2】______ has become a 【C3】______ controversial and 【C4】______ political issue since the 【C5】______ of the Endangered Species Act in 1973. The act, 【C6】______ to protect species’ living areas, and policies that 【C7】______ land and forests compete with economic interests.

The challenge was 【C10】______ to protect the endangered spotted owl, whose remaining population occupies these forests and 【C11】______ the intact, ancient forest for survival. The problematic situation set the interests of environmentalists 【C12】______ those of corporations and of individuals who 【C13】______ to lose jobs. After months of debate and legal battles, the fate of the woodcutters-and the owls was still undecided in mid-1992.
Similar 【C14】______ exist between the developed and the developing nations. Many people in industrialized nations, for example, believe that developing nations in tropical regions should do more to protect their rain forests and other natural areas. But the developing countries may be 【C15】______ , with populations growing so rapidly that using the land is a 【C16】______ to temporarily avoid worsening poverty and starvation.
