Read the text. Match the highlighted words in the text with their meanings.

The more people travel, the bigger impact they may have on the
environment. How can we reduce it while travelling? Here are some
advice.
Reduce your carbon footprint while travelling. Since flying produces
more carbon footprint than any other means of transport, you should
only fly when the trip is long. During the trip, you should walk, cycle or
use public transport as much as you can. This not only helps to keep
the environment clean, but also allows you to enjoy the beauty of
nature and interact with local people.
Choose eco-friendly activities that benefit animals and the ecosystem.
Avoid activities that allow you to touch or ride animals because they
disturb their natural patterns and attract many people. Instead, visit
wildlife parks or organic farms. These will help you understand and
respect the nature more and stop doing things that harm the
environment.

Write a paragraph (120 - 150 words) about things you should or shouldn't do to
reduce the negative impact of travelling on the environment.

Sample answer:
There are several things that we should do to reduce the negative impact of
travelling on the environment. Firstly, we should reduce our carbon footprint during
the trip. We should only fly when the trip is long and choose environmentally-friendly
means of transport such as cycling or public transport. Secondly, wherever we go, we
should always protect our environment. By keeping it clean and safe, we can reduce
the negative impact of travelling on the environment.
