5. The sight of hundreds of dying birds and seals is one that is
unfortunately becoming more and more common. Over the past decade
hundreds of oil tankers have run aground off coastlines around the world,
causing a huge amount of damage to wildlife and the environment.
Last paragraphs
A Children's problems today can be summed up by a remark Sally Kempton,
an American journalist, once made, "All children are potential victims
dependent on the world's goodwill."
B All things considered, the disadvantages seem to outweigh the advantages.
However, until there is a cheap ecological alternative to the car, there is
no other means of transport that is more comfortable or practical.
C In conclusion, apart from teaching children from an early age that books
are enjoyable and in no way connected to school work, children should
be taught how to use libraries and encouraged to join book clubs. It
seems that book clubs are the only solution to the problem.
D I believe that it is a waste of the government's resources to pay for
thousands of men to serve in the army for one year, especially when
these men could be working and paying taxes. Therefore the government
would be increasing their revenue which makes more economical sense.
E Taking everything into account, action must be taken now to prevent
further damage being done to an already fragile environment. It is time to
end the needless suffering which is endured every year by thousands of
helpless birds and animals.
Exercise 27
Read the main body of the article, then write the first and the last
paragraphs.
More Education, Less Environmental Damage
………………………………………………………………………….
The most important step towards preserving the ozone layer is to educate
the public about it, especially the younger generation. This could take place in
schools, with the aid of environmental projects for children. If people fully
understand the importance of the ozone layer, they will be more likely to protect
it.
Apart from educating future generations we also need to put pressure on
people to recycle as much as possible. Only in this way will we be able to
conserve the earths valuable resources for generations to come.
What we should concentrate on now is developing new types of transport
and power which do not pollute the atmosphere, as these are the biggest sources
of environmental pollution.
