V. Read the following passage and choose the best answers to the questions.
Conservation conflicts arise when natural-resource shortages develop in the face of
steadily increasing demands from a growing human population. Controversy frequently
surrounds how a resource should be used, or allocated, and for whom. For example, a river
may supply water for agricultural irrigation, habitat for fish, and water-generated electricity
for a factory. Farmers, fishers, and industry leader vie for unrestricted access to this river,
but such freedom could destroy the resource, and conservation methods are necessary to
protect the river for future use.
Conflicts worsen when a natural resource crosses political boundaries. For example, the
headwaters, or source, of a major river may be located in a different country than the country
through which the river flows. There is no guarantee that the river source will be protected to
accommodate resource needs downstream. In addition, the way in which one natural
resource is managed has a direct effect upon other natural resources. Cutting down a forest
near a river, for instance, increases erosion, the wearing away of topsoil, and can lead to
flooding. Eroded soil and silt cloud the river and adversely affect many organisms such as
fish and important aquatic plants that require clean, clear freshwater for survival.

A. Argument often surrounds how a resource should be used, or allocated, and for whom.
B. A river may provide water for agricultural irrigation, habitat for fish, and water-generated
electricity for a factory
