Task 1
Group Discussion The term “migrant worker” has different official meanings and connotations in different parts of the world. The United Nations’ definition is broad, essentially including anyone working outside their home country. It can also include those who migrate within a country, usually their own, in order to pursue work such as seasonal jobs.

That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of _v_io_l_e_n_c_e___ and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and __ir_r_e_sp_o_n__si_b_il_i_ty__ on the part of some, but also our collective _p_r_e_p_a_r_e____ to make hard choices and __f_a_il_u_r_e___ the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further _e_v_i_d_e_n_c_e_ that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.
