A America was the first country to start up “National Parks”, beginning with Yellowstone* in 1872. Now this and other parks together cover¹ a large area of the country. Long before 1872, William Wordsworth,* the great English poet, wanted his native Lake District to become a special place. But only in 1951 did the first national park in England and Wales appear.² It was the Lake District National Park.

Now there are thirteen national parks in England and Wales. They cover more than one tenth of the land area. 90 million visitors come to national parks every year.

The first aim³ of national parks is to protect the countryside; the second aim is to let people enjoy the countryside, enjoy trees, flowers, animals and birds.

The Everglades, in Florida, is one of the most interesting places. Most of its territory is covered¹ with grass. Open water is sometimes found, and there are a lot of islands with tropical plants. If you visit the Everglades, you can see a lot of alligators. Be careful, they are dangerous! They are protected, because the Everglades is a national park. Naturalists and tourists come to see water birds, bobcats,* bears and alligators.

C The Lake District is the largest national park in Britain. It is popular with walkers, cyclists and people who go boating. It is one of the most beautiful and attractive places in the country. It has Windermere ['wɪndəmɪə], the longest lake in England, and Scafell Pike [,skɔ:fel 'paɪk], the highest mountain in England.

In 1810 William Wordsworth* described the beauty of the Lake District in his poems. The works of Wordsworth* and other romantic poets attracted visitors to the lakes.
