READING PART
Water, Air
Pollution is an environmental concern for people
throughout the world. One university study suggests
that pollutants in the water, air, and soil cause up to 40%
of the premature deaths in the world's population. The
majority of these deaths occur in developing countries.
Water in many developing countries
is contaminated with toxic chemicals, also known as
toxins. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates
that 1.1 billion people have little or no access to clean
water. In many of these regions the water that is used for
drinking, cooking, and washing is the same water that is
used for dumping sewage and hazardous waste. Most
developing countries cannot afford water treatment
facilities. Approximately 80% of infectious diseases in the
world are caused by contaminated water.
Air pollution is a growing problem throughout the world.
Indoor air pollution is one of the leading causes of lung
cancer. Families in developing countries use open stoves
for cooking and heating their homes. These homes do not
have proper ventilation. The smoke, which is full of
chemicals and carcinogens, gets trapped inside where
families eat and sleep. Outdoor pollution also causes
disease and illness, especially in industrial cities such as
Beijing, China, where cancer is the leading cause of
death. China relies heavily on coal, which is considered
the dirtiest source of energy. According to the European
Union, only 1% of urban dwellers in China breathe clean
air on an average day. Neighbouring countries including
Japan and Korea receive much of China's pollution in the
ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS ACORDING TO THE READING
form of acid rain. This pollution results mainly from the
coal powered factories, which produce inexpensive goods
for North American and European consumers. Outdoor air
pollution is also a concern in many wealthy countries.
Those who live and work in urban centres such as Los
Angeles or Toronto experience many warm days beneath
a layer of smog.
Soil pollution is also a major concern, both in industrial
and developing countries. Pollutants such as metals
and pesticides seep into the earth's soil and contaminate
the food supply. Soil pollution causes major health risks
to entire ecosystems. This type of pollution reduces the
amount of land suitable for agricultural production and
contributes to global food shortages. Dumping of
industrial and domestic waste products produces much
of the world's soil pollution, though natural disasters can
also add to the problem. In wealthy countries such as the
US, protection agencies monitor the food supply. The
public is generally warned before major disease
outbreaks occur. Developing countries do not have this
luxury. Farmers in poor nations grow food in
contaminated soil both to earn a living and to avoid
starvation.
As more people move to urban
centres, premature deaths caused by pollution are
expected to increase worldwide. Today, the developed
nations who achieved their wealth at the expense of the
environment will be held accountable for protecting the
earth's resources for future generations.
