TAPESCRIPT 
 I like watching the beauty of (1) natural landscapes. I used to go to the mountains, the desert, and (2) other 
places with spectacular scenery in summer. I don‟t any more, although I‟m attracted to the beauty of nature. 
But I do think these natural places aren‟t as beautiful (3) as they used to be. Now more and more people are 
going to these places. They leave trash in the forests, and take (4) rocks and plants with them. They don‟t care 
about nature. I believe not only people (5) are important to the world - nature is important, too.
