Exercise 6. Read the passage carefully and then answer the questions.
Puerto Rico is an island southeast of Florida and north of Venezuela, between the Atlantic Ocean and the
Caribbian Sea. It is not far from Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Puerto Rico has many beautiful beaches that
stretch for miles along the coast. It also has mountains and valleys with good land for farming. The climate in
Puerto Rico is usually very warm. It is often humid during the summer months. Many people choose Puerto
Rico as a vacation spot because of its lovely weather, beautiful coasts, and interesting history and culture.
Puerto Rico means “ rich port” in Spanish. Christopher Columbus landed there in 1493. Fifteen years later, the
Spanish explorers Juan Ponce de Leon settled there with people from Spain who came to live in the New World.
Native Indians had lived on the island of Puerto Rico for hundreds of years. Tragically, many of them died in
wars with the Spanish and from diseases brought from Europe. People from other places, like Africa, also came
to live in Puerto Rico. Today Puerto Rico is an interesting mix of all these cultures. Visitots will notice the
influence of Spain in the food, music, festivals, and customs of the people. And, of course, the people in Puerto
Rico speak Spanish – but they also speak English. Puerto Rico has a special relationship with the United States.
It is not one of the fifty states. It is called a commonwealth of the United States. The people of Puerto Rico are
American citizens and can travel to the United States easily. However, they do not pay certain taxes and they do
not vote in national elections for the president of the US. The United States has many businesses and schools in
Puerto Rico , so many Puerto Ricans speak English. Although Puerto Rico has its own local government, The
US government also protect the island.
The capital city of Puerto Rico is San Juan. It is a modern, industrial city. San Juan is also a port, which is a
place where ships come and go, carrying supplies to and from other places. Puerto Rico has several other large
cities near the coast. Because much of the island is covered with mountains, most of the people live close
together – near the coast or in the valleys between the mountains.
