C 1. Crusoe was stranded on his island more than 300 years ago. Give some reasons why this would be less likely to happen today.

Being stranded on an island is less likely today because modern technology and transport make rescue easier. Ships and aircraft have radios, satellite navigation, GPS and emergency communication systems. A person in danger can use a mobile phone, a satellite phone, a personal locator beacon or an emergency signal to contact rescuers. There are also more frequent flights and sea journeys, and search-and-rescue services can locate people much faster.

Ответ: Modern communication, navigation, transport and search-and-rescue technology make it much easier to call for help and to be found.
