Read the passage and answer the questions: Visual pollution has a greater effect on people than you may think. I remember when I went to a foreign city. I was really scared because there was so much graffiti on the buildings' walls. Then I looked up, and I saw a lot of power lines over my head. Although they were not dangerous, I still felt insecure since I thought they might fall down. These things prevented me from enjoying the beautiful sights of the city. I also remember the time I studied in Melbourne. Once I was so busy with my assignments that I did not tidy my room for two weeks. Looking at the messy room caused me so much stress that I did not want to study. Then I decided to clean the room and put my things in their proper places. I also bought a small plant and placed it in a corner. These simple actions increase- my motivation and helped me to focus on my learning. What about you?

However, air pollution is the most serious in our area. Causes: Air can be polluted in many ways. First of all, smokes in the air from mills, factories, and industry make the air poisonous. Secondly, air is polluted by toxic fumes from vehicles. Besides, poisons from household families are another cause of air pollution as it contains harmful chemicals. Finally, yearly forest fires nearby also lead to air contamination as well. Effects: Air pollution badly affects our area. Air pollution makes us face with many diseases such as headaches, asthma and lung diseases. There are some new factories in our neighborhood making people living nearby become sick as they breathe smokes too much. Another negative effect is that acid rain due to air pollution is so dangerous because it destroys the leaves of plants. In addition, air pollution also harms animals, fish and other aquatic life. They become sick and develop their population more slowly than they did before. Solutions: Residents in our area are trying to find out how to solve it. We decide to use public means of transportation and local gov rnm nt ncourag s us to fulfill th 3 R: ‘R duc , R us and R cycl ”. 2. Write an article describing causes, effects and solutions to water pollution. Topic sentences: Water pollution is the contamination of bodies of water such as lakes, rivers, oceans, and groundwater. Causes: Water pollution can have many different causes. Firstly, factories dump industrial waste into lakes and rivers. Secondly, Sewage from households is another cause. Also, farms using pesticides to 10 kill insects and herbicides to kill weeds can also lead to water pollution. Furthermore, storm water and the atmosphere also result in 'non-point source" pollution. Effects: Water pollution can have dramatic effects. People easily get cholera and other diseases or even die if they drink untreated and contaminated water. Polluted water also makes aquatic animals die such as fish, crabs, or birds. Other animals may also get sick because of eating these dead animals. In addition, herbicides in water can kill aquatic plants and cause further damage to the environment. Solutions: This problem can be reduced by giving heavy fines to companies that do this, educating companies about the environment and giving tax breaks to companies that find ‘ cl an ’ ways to dispose of their waste. If we take these actions/ measures well, we will make our water clean and safe again. 11 UNIT 8. ENGLISH SPEAKING COUNTRY A PRONUNCIATION: I. PRONUNCIATION: Stress in words ending in -ese and –ee.

Visitors to this land can spend endless days exploring its historic centuries-old castles. But be 15 aware - legend says that some of them are haunted by ghosts. Fun-lovers can experience its worldfamous festival, the Highland Games where they can enjoy unique Scottish activities such as the piping, drumming, and dancing. They can also see traditional sports, or drink whisky with the local people. Driving through vast green pastures, or boating on scenic lakes - or lochs - are other attractions that Scotland offers. The great people of this legendary land have also given many of the world's important inventions like the telephone, the television, penicillin and the raincoat. Edinburgh, the capital, was the first city in the world to have its own fire brigade in 1824. Edinburgh University welcomed the first female medical student in Great Britain in 1869.

Alaska is perhaps the most amazing state in the USA. It has coastlines facing both the Arctic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. This state has an incredible three million lakes. That's four lakes per person living there. Many cities in Alaska cannot be reached by road, sea, or river.The only way to get in and out is by air, on foot, or by dogsied. That's why Alaska has the busiest sea airport in the world, Lake Hood Seaplane Base. Nearly two hundred floatplanes take off and land on the water of this airport every day. It's really a fun scene to watch. Alaska is called the Land of the Midnight Sun because in summer, the sun does not set for nearly three months. But in winter the sun stays almost unseen. All Alaskans take special pride in their beautiful and unique state. 1. What is Alaska? _____________________________________________________________________________ 2.
