Glacier National Park in Montana shares boundaries with Canada, an American
Indian reservation, and a national forest. Along the North Fork of the Flathead River, the park also borders about 17,000 acres of private lands that are currently used for ranching, timber, and agriculture. This land is an important part of the habitat and migratory routes for several endangered species that frequent the park. These private lands are essentially the only ones available for development in the region.
With encouragement from the park, local landowners initiated a land use planning effort to guide the future of the North Fork. The park is a partner in an inter local agreement that calls for resource managing agencies to work together and with the more than 400 private owners in the area. A draft plan has been prepared, with
objective of maintaining traditional economic uses but limiting new development that would damage park resources. Voluntary action by landowners, in cooperation with the park and the county, is helping to restrict small lot subdivisions, maintain wildlife corridors, and minimize any harmful impact on the environment.
The willingness of local landowners to participate in this protection effort may have been stimulated by concerns that congress would impose a legislative solution. Nevertheless, many local residents want to retain the existing character of the area. Meetings between park officials and landowners have led to a dramatically improved understanding of all concerns.

答案解析：1、B) 這是一道主旨題。通過閱讀文章可知，為了保護冰川國家公園的瀕危物種和資源，公園當局和地方土地所有者制訂了限制土地使用計劃，故答案為B。
2. D) 這是一道細節題。根據第一段第三句“This land is an important part of the habitat and migratory routes for several endangered species that frequent the park.”(這片土地是非常重要的，因為這裡是幾種經常光顧此公園的瀕危物種的棲息地和遷徙路線。)可知選項D為正確答案。
3. C) 根據第二段可知，公園當局和地方土地所有者密切合作來保護資源，因此他們的關係是"cooperative" (合作性的)。
4. A) 這是一道推理題。根據第二段第三句和閱讀全文，我們很容易就可以得到這樣一個資訊：為了保護自然資源和瀕危物種，公園管理者限制那些會破壞資源的土地開發。因此選項A為正確答案。
