35. M5U2. Reading— The economy or the environment—must we choose?

TV host: James Long

Speakers: Lin Shuiqing, a spokeswoman from the Green Society

Qian Liwei, a business development consultant

James Long: Good morning. Today’s debate question is, “The economy or the environment—must we choose?’ Wi th me are Ms Lin Shuiqing, from the Green Society, and Mr Qian Liwei, a business development consultant. We are following our usual schedule for debates. Ms Lin Shuiqing will speak first for three minutes. Mr Qian Liwei will follow, also for three minutes. Then we will open the floor discussion. If you have any questions or (comment), you can use this time to express them.

Lin Shuiqing: Good morning, everyone. First I am talking to you today about the way vast areas of the world are (damage) by chemical waste. Many places have been destroyed and many plants and animals (die). This is awful. Factories produce large numbers of (harmful) chemicals. The waste they create goes into the atmosphere and (make) us sick. Other types of waste flow into our water, (kill) river and sea life.

Much sea life is being destroyed by fishing boats as well. These boats catch large numbers of fish without (give) them time to lay eggs. This will result a smaller number of fish (leave) for us to eat in the future.

While we damage our environment, we keep (produce) more and more people need more land to live on and more food to eat! The world’s population has grown by six times what it was in 1800. The figure is now about 7 billion people!

It is our duty (try) to cut back on production and reduce the number of things we make and buy. The amount of rubbish we produce is turning into a big problem; we need to think more about recycling our waste. It would be good ( increase ) the amount of waste we recycle, and teach people ways of living that do not harm the environment. We may even create more jobs and help our country become more (develop) at the same time.

Thank you.
