Explicação

Para preencher as lacunas, usei as combinações (collocations) mais naturais em inglês e a coerência temática do texto (turismo e problemas ambientais):

  1. “mass tourism” é a expressão consagrada para turismo de massa.
  2. “environmental impact” (impacto ambiental).
  3. “Land resources” (recursos da terra), como minerais e solo fértil.
  4. Esses recursos podem ser “depleted” (esgotados) para abastecer a indústria.
  5. “Deforestation of wooded areas” (desmatamento de áreas florestadas).
  6. Isso leva a “soil erosion” (erosão do solo).
  7. “Wildlife has suffered” (a vida selvagem sofreu).
  8. Porque “natural habitats” (habitats naturais) foram destruídos.
  9. Veículos e infraestrutura causam “pollution” (poluição).
  10. Ao queimar “fossil fuels” (combustíveis fósseis).
  11. Isso contribui para a “depletion” (depleção) da...
  12. “ozone layer” (camada de ozônio).
  13. Além de “acid rain” (chuva ácida), que danifica árvores e prédios.
  14. E aumento constante do “global warming” (aquecimento global).
  15. Lixo e outros “waste” (resíduos) poluem solo e lençóis freáticos.
  16. Antes eram áreas de “natural beauty” (beleza natural).
  17. Agora viraram “overcrowded rubbish tips” (lixões superlotados/locais superlotados como depósitos de lixo).

Alternativa correta: (sem alternativas).
