- Air pollution is a big problem in big cities. Evidence shows that air
pollution may cause serious health problems for humans and animals. We (I)
.......... more health problems if we do not lower the air pollution
levels. There are some simple actions we can take to REDUCE air
pollution.
First, get familiar with bus or train routes in your city
(2) ......... start to replace your motorbike travel with a bus trip at
least once a week. I he frequent use of public transportation can help
reduce emissions that cause air pollution. You can even walk or bike
(3)..........short distances.
Second, try to use less packaging. Factories can badly
(4)......... air quality when producing plastic, foil and cardboard for
packaging. Whatever you are shopping for, remember to choose items with
as little packaging as possible. If you have no choice, go for
recyclable packaging.
Another good way to reduce air pollution is to manage your
household waste. Redusing. recycling and composting can help reduce a
significant (5) .......... of garbage. That means that less garbage will
end up in landfills which are major sources of air pollution.
This is a very difficult question. We certainly need national and local governments to spend money on big projects. But every one of us should help every day. Here are a few problems and some solutions.
•Water pollution is a very big problem. If dirty water gels into rivers, it can cause problems for fish, if people eat the fish, they may catch (1)........ . Il you see dirty water going into a river, tell your local government. We should all help to (2) .......... our freshwater.
•We must try to (3) ........ the amount ol plastic which we use. Use the same bag again and again when you go shopping.
•Trash looks horrible in parks and open spaces, but it is also dangerous. It can kill (4) ........... if it contains things which poison animals, and animals can die if they eat plastic, glass, or metal. Take your trash home!
•Also, try to make less food trash! Did you know that 33% of all food around the world goes into trash cans? Don’t buy too much food and then (5) ...........a lot of it.
We can save the planet, day by day! Did you watch that program about natural disasters last night? It was excellent! I was a bit bored at the beginning, because the first disaster was snow coming down a mountainside. I'm not sure that(l) .......... are really disasters, but they are horrible for skiers.
After the first break, there was a sad story about a (2) .......... in a part of India. It didn’t rain for nine months, and there was no water in any of the lakes or rivers. All the food plants died, and people brought things into the"area by truck every day.
Next, we had a story about a kind of storm. It turns very fast over water and sometimes causes a lot of damage when it goes over land. It’s called a (3) .......... .
There’s another program next week about other natural disasters, but this program ended with some advice. The presenter said people need to be ready, but that is strange, because he also said there is often no(4).......... that a natural disaster will happen.
Next week, we will learn about the(5) .......... of natural disasters, which will be very interesting. Do you want to come and watch it with me?
Best wishes,Chris
As South Texas continues to battle (I).......... Harvey’s record rainfall, the people of Louisiana are marking a tragic anniversary. Twelve years (2) ......... , on August 29. 2005. Hurricane Katrina made landfall near New Orleans. It was one of the (3) ........... devastating natural disasters to ever hit the United States, and the (4)___________ still bears its scars.
Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Katrina are (5)____________ beasts, to be sure. Harvey's lingering wrath is very different than Katrina’s swift and destructive turn, and the (6)____________ and infrastructural collapses that followed. So far. Harvey (7)___________ claimed a number of lives, but it is a (8)_____________ fraction of Katrina’s 1,800+ victims.
From a meteorological perspective, though, how do these (9) ________________ compare? Other than timing - an interesting but easily explained coincidence - do they have anything in (10)___________ other than adjacent chambers in the nation's memory?
