4. Reading. Read the text and mark the sentences T (true) or F (false). The text says: Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park covers 1,325 square kilometres and contains Uluru, a 348-metre-high rock. Uluru is important to the Anangu people and is part of their cultural history and traditional beliefs. They believe visitors must not climb Uluru, but do not stop visitors from going up; visitors prefer to walk around its base. The park has a cultural centre and guides who can take visitors around Uluru and explain its history. Walks take about 3 hours. Visitors must bring water and should drink one litre for every hour walked. They should avoid the hottest time of day, stay on the marked paths, and wear long trousers and protective boots in case of encountering a snake. The park is open from 5 am to 9 pm in summer and from 6:30 am to 7:30 pm in winter. Camping is not allowed inside the park, but hotels are nearby. Statements: 1) Visitors can climb Uluru with the native people. 2) There are guides at the cultural centre. 3) Visitors must take a guided tour to walk around Uluru. 4) Visitors don’t have to take water with them on walks in the park. 5) Visitors must stay on park paths. 6) There are dangerous reptiles in the park. 7) Visitors can’t sleep in the park at night.
