PBAU Illes Balears 2024 — Reading comprehensionDificultad 3/5

Text: "Tourism is the main industry on many islands. It creates thousands of jobs, but it can also damage the environment if it is not managed carefully."

According to the text, what is a possible negative effect of tourism?

Ver solución
Respuesta correcta — opción C

It can damage the environment

Correct: tourism "can also damage the environment if it is not managed carefully".
The text presents job creation as a benefit, but introduces a drawback with "but": tourism "can also damage the environment if it is not managed carefully". This environmental damage is the negative effect mentioned, so the correct answer reproduces it.

PBAU Illes Balears 2024 — Vocabulary in contextDificultad 3/5

In "if it is not managed carefully", which word is closest in meaning to manage?

Ver solución
Respuesta correcta — opción A

control

Correct: "control" is the closest synonym of "manage" here (to handle or organise).
To "manage" something means to handle, organise or control it. In this context, the closest synonym is "control" (managing tourism so it does not damage the environment). "Forget" and "sell" are unrelated, and "destroy" expresses the opposite of careful management.

PBAU Illes Balears 2024 — Use of English (passive)Dificultad 3/5

Choose the correct passive form:

"People speak English all over the world."

Ver solución
Respuesta correcta — opción A

English is spoken all over the world.

Correct: "English is spoken all over the world." The object becomes the subject and the verb is "is" + past participle.
In the passive voice, the object of the active sentence ("English") becomes the subject and the verb is "to be" + past participle. In present simple, "speak" becomes "is spoken" (singular, because "English" is uncountable). The correct sentence is "English is spoken all over the world." The agent ("by people") is omitted because it is general and not relevant.

PBAU Illes Balears 2024 — Use of English (first conditional)Dificultad 3/5

Complete with the correct form:

"If it ____ tomorrow, we will stay at home."

Ver solución
Respuesta correcta — opción A

rains

Correct: "rains". The first conditional uses present simple in the if-clause and "will" + infinitive in the main clause.
The main clause "we will stay at home" signals a first (real/likely) conditional. Its structure is "If + present simple, ... will + infinitive". Therefore the if-clause takes the present simple of "rain", which in the third person is "rains": "If it rains tomorrow, we will stay at home." Past forms ("rained", "would rain") belong to the second conditional.

PBAU Illes Balears 2024 — Use of English (relative clauses)Dificultad 3/5

Complete with the correct relative pronoun:

"The man ____ lives next door is a doctor."

Ver solución
Respuesta correcta — opción A

who

Correct: "who". We use "who" to refer to people.
Relative pronouns depend on what the noun refers to: "who" for people, "which/that" for things and animals, "where" for places and "whose" for possession. Since "man" is a person, the correct relative pronoun is "who": "The man who lives next door is a doctor."

PBAU Illes Balears 2024 — Use of English (comparatives/superlatives)Dificultad 3/5

Complete with the correct form:

"Mount Teide is ____ mountain in Spain."

Ver solución
Respuesta correcta — opción A

the highest

Correct: "the highest". The superlative of short adjectives is "the" + adjective + "-est".
The phrase "in Spain" means we are comparing one mountain with all the others, which requires a superlative. "High" is a short adjective, so its superlative is "the" + adjective + "-est": "the highest". The full sentence is "Mount Teide is the highest mountain in Spain." Short adjectives never use "most", and the superlative always needs the article "the".

PBAU Illes Balears 2024 — Vocabulary (word formation)Dificultad 3/5

Form a noun from the verb "to develop":

"Tourism contributed to the economic ____ of the islands."

Ver solución
Respuesta correcta — opción A

development

Correct: "development". The noun is formed by adding the suffix "-ment" to the verb "develop".
After the adjective "economic" a noun is required. The verb "to develop" forms the noun by adding the suffix "-ment": "development". The correct sentence is "Tourism contributed to the economic development of the islands." "Developing" is a gerund/participle, "developer" is a person and "developed" is the past/adjective form.

PBAU Illes Balears 2024 — Use of English (connectors)Dificultad 3/5

Choose the correct linking word:

"Tourism creates jobs; ____, it can harm nature."

Ver solución
Respuesta correcta — opción A

however

Correct: "however" expresses contrast between the benefit (jobs) and the drawback (harming nature).
The two ideas are in contrast: creating jobs is a benefit, but harming nature is a drawback. The connector that expresses contrast is "however": "Tourism creates jobs; however, it can harm nature." "Therefore" and "so" express result/consequence, and "because" introduces a cause, so they do not fit.
