Coconut Island is a beautiful island with of course, coconut palms(椰子樹), golden beaches and clear blue sea. I'm sorry, I made a there. Coconut Island was a beautiful island. There are still coconut palms, golden beaches and clear blue sea but not like before. So, what happened?

Well, I have a friend who was here five years ago. Her photo album is full of wonderful pictures of empty beaches. Also she has pictures of small. wooden bungalows（小屋） on the beach. No need to book she said, just and you have the place to yourself - very basic. cheap, quiet and peaceful.

Not anymore! The beach is empty - it's crowded all day! There is music from the cafes. children are shouting and screaming, and the hotels are very expensive. Most of the hotels are full of holidaymakers who booked their trip months ago. I'm lucky to have a small room at the back of one hotel, and it's still expensive.

But perhaps this is ? Not only are the roads better but there is also a new medical clinic. The local kids now speak English 'Mister. mister. you want t-shirt?' and there are many new businesses opening all the time. I see an old woman trying to cross the road from her house to the shops. It's no longer a small, quiet road but a large and very busy one. She looks nervous and waits for someone to walk with her. The children no longer ride bicycles but race around the island on motorbikes. It's not so either - my friend stayed in a bungalow on the beach that had no lock. Now the hotel room says it's a good idea to put things in the safe box.

Are things getting better or worse?

1.A. decision B. noise C. living D. mistake

2.A. show up B. look up C. wake up D. take up

3.A. even B. never C. ever D. also

4.A. danger B. history C. progress D. travel

5.A. Generally B. Again C. Especially D. Then

6.A. comfortable B. awful C. safe D. boring
