Задание:
Read the text “Global Issues”. For each of the four topics, decide which statement is a fact and which is an opinion.
Global issues Text 1 Income “At least 80% of the people in the world live on less than $10 a day. However, in developing countries the figure is much higher – 95% live in less than $10 a day.” “I agree that it’s an imperfect world – the problem is that the poor get poorer and the rich get richer. I think people from rich countries ought to give more of their income in aid.” Text 2 Water “We must all try to use less water, especially people living in the USA, because they use an incredible amount of water.” “However, at least a billion people in the developing world can’t get enough water and over two and a half billion don’t have proper toilets.” Text 3 Children “In my opinion, the Chinese policy of “one family — one child” has been very successful. Other countries should think about doing the same – I believe in population control.” “In fact, 24000 children a day die because of poverty, many of them in poor villages in remote parts of the world. And eight million children under the age of five die every year from diseases which we can treat.” Text 4 Energy “A quarter of the world’s populations live without electricity, including over 500 million people in Africa alone.” “However, there’s lots of sun in Africa and it’s free, so people ought to use its energy. The developing world should use more solar power.”
