Directions (Q. 16-35) : Read the following passage carefully and
answer the questions. Certain words / phrases are given in bold to help you
locate while answering some of the questions.
In 2012, the Arctic was hot. But while it still matters for environmental
reasons, the surge of interest in its economy has ebbed. That surge was driven
by three things. First, the Arctic contains vast amounts of energy which could
become accessible as the world warms and the ice retreats in summer. The US
Geological Survey has said that about a quarter of the world's undiscovered oil
and gas lies in Arctic waters. Second, the melting ice allows cargo ships to
sail round Russia's northern coast for about two months in summer. This cuts
the distance for ships travelling from Shanghai to Rotterdam by almost a
quarter and the transit time by about two weeks. It was once said the Northern
Sea Route would one day rival the Suez Canal as the best way to ship goods from
East Asia to Europe. Third, the Arctic seemed a model of inter-national
cooperation. The eight countries with territory inside the Arctic Circle settled
through the Arctic Council, originally a scientific forum which in 2011-13
signed its first treaties, on search and rescue missions and cleaning up oil
spills. Nothing exemplified its popularity better than the rush of tropical
Asian countries to join. China, India and Singapore were granted observer
status in 2013.
But since mid-2014, the Arctic's allure has lessened. Its energy is pricey.
Even at $ 100 a barrel, many fields were marginal because the weather is so
extreme. A Russian and Norwegian firm together developing one of the largest
gas fields ever discovered, mothballed the project in 2012. With oil at $ 50 a
barrel, few Arctic fields would be economic. Energy exploration in the Arctic
is in fact referred to by some as a licence to lose money. With regard to the
Northern Sea Route. In 2013, 71 ships traversed Russia's Arctic, according to
the Northern Sea Route Information Office : a large increase since 2010, when
the number was just four. But 16,000 ships passed through the Suez Canal
between Europe and Asia in 2013, so the northern route is not starting to
compete. In 2014 traffic along the Northern Sea Route fell to 53 ships, only
four of which sailed from Asia and docked in Europe (the rest went from one
Russian port to another). The route does not yet link Europe and East Asia. The
decline in 2014 was partly caused by the weather : less sea ice melted last
summer than in 2013, so the route was more dangerous. But its limitations go
beyond that. Cutting a week or two off transit time is not the benefit it may
seem if the vessel arrives a day late. In shipping, just-in-time arrival
matters, not only speed. The new-generation container ships are too cumbersome
to use the Arctic so, as these become more common, the northern route becomes
less attractive. The Arctic council continues to expand; it is setting up a new
economic body to boost business. But however much its members cooperate; the
council cannot offset hostilities between Russia and the West-hostilities which
affect the Arctic, too. Russia is stepping up its military operations there.
This does not mean fighting is about to break out in the Arctic; nor are
shipping and energy exploration about to end.
16. Which of the following can be said about the Suez Canal?
(A) Its shipping traffic has dramatically reduced with the opening up of the
Northern Sea Route
(B) Russian shipping traffic through this route is increasing dramatically
(C) It is at present the best way to ship goods between Europe and East Asia
(D) New-generation cargo ships are facing challenges along this route
(E) Work to expand its capacity should be undertaken soon (Ans : C)
