The main industry on the isles today is tourism, making up 85% of the islands’ total income. The favourable summer climate, conducive to flowers and holidays, facilitate the large amount of tourism in the area. The bulk of tourists visit St Mary’s, the only island with a significant road network and airport, though the island of Tresco also has a number of timeshare resorts and a heliport. The holiday season on the Isles of Scilly, unlike many other tourist destinations in England, extends through October, when the isles are a top destination for bird watchers who come to see the many exotic birds who make the first stop of their migration on the isles

chief reason that tourists visit the Isles of Scilly is to see

A. the many airports and helicopters B. the historical church on the main island C. unusual birds that are passing through

:Answer

C

Tourism is discussed in the third paragraph. The final sentence of this paragraph states that the isles are a top destination for bird watchers who come to see many exotic birds who make the stop in their migration on the islands. Thus, answer C is correct

:As for the other answers

There is one airport and one heliport on the islands, so it is not correct to say there are many of these. One island is called St Mary’s, but the passage says nothing about an historical church there
