Part 2: 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 following questions.

Cuc Phuong National Park, located in northern Vietnam, is a vital sanctuary for endangered species. The park is home to a diverse range of flora and fauna, including rare and protected animals such as the Delacour’s langur, a species of primate on the brink of extinction. As one of the oldest national parks in Vietnam, Cuc Phuong has become a symbol of wildlife conservation in the country.
However, the survival of these species is at risk due to habitat destruction and illegal poaching. The park’s forest ecosystem provides crucial shelter for many species, but deforestation and human encroachment threaten these habitats. According to the Vietnam Conservation Fund, around 60% of the park’s wildlife species are now classified as vulnerable or endangered.
Efforts to protect the park’s wildlife are underway. Local communities and environmental organizations have been working together to monitor wildlife populations, enforce anti-poaching laws, and educate the public about the importance of biodiversity. In addition, the Cuc Phuong Center for Endangered Species is dedicated to breeding and rehabilitating endangered animals before releasing them back into the wild.
Technology has played a significant role in these conservation efforts. The use of camera traps and GPS tracking has helped researchers monitor wildlife movements and prevent illegal activities. The park also offers eco-tourism programs that raise awareness about wildlife protection while benefiting local communities.
