UNIT 2
1. Read the text and answer the questions bellow.
Environmental problems is the most burning
problem of today. The ecological problem influence
the climate on the Earth. Mankind long believed
that, whatever we did, the Earth would remind
much the same. Nature is under threat. Our
country’s pollution can be every country’s problem.
So we all need to work together to safeguard our
environment.
Air pollution is a very serious problem. Industrial
enterprises emit tons of harmful substances. They
are the main reason for the greenhouse effect and
acid rains. The pollution of air and the world’s
ocean, destruction of the ozone layer is the result of man’s careless interaction- with nature a sign of
the ecological crises. Rains, full of acid chemicals, change lakes, rivers, as well as forests. Acid
water kills the plants and animals that usually live in water. Acid rain makes the Earth more acidic
and some kinds of trees can’t live in the sol that is very acidic. Forests are disappearing and this
upsets the oxygen balance. Water pollution occurs mostly, when people overload the water
environment such as streams, lakes, underground water, bays or seas with wastes or substances
harmful to living being.
Nuclear weapon is also course of the pollution. It brings a great damage to the agriculture, forests
and people’s health.
The greenhouse effect and global warming both correspond with each other. The greenhouse effect
is recalled as incoming solar radiation that passes through the Earth’s atmosphere but prevents much
of the outgoing infrared radiation from escaping into outer space. It causes the overheat of the air as
a result we have the global warming effect.
People are beginning to realize that environmental problems are not somebody else’s. In many
countries environmental protection agencies and research centers are up. Such organization as
“Green Peace” cares for ecology in countries. Its main goal is to combine the people’s efforts for
peace with the huge and ever mounting movement launches all kind of environmental actions and
inform of the ways, means and results of this work.

Education in Australia vs. Education in the United States.
Each state and territory in Australia makes its own laws about education.
This is also true in the United States. Both Australia and the United States
have private schools available in addition to public schools.
In the United States, children between the ages of five and sixteen are
required to attend school. In Australia children between the ages of six and
fifteen are required to attend school with the exception of Tasmania. In
Tasmania children attend school until the age of sixteen. Kindergarten is required in the United
States, but not in Australia.
Australia’s four-term school year begins in February with a two week holiday between
terms. The fourth and final term ends around December 20. The Christmas holiday coincides with
the end of school and the beginning of the summer vacation. The students return to school in
February. In the United States, children have their summer vacation from June to August.
Australia’s primary or elementary school consists of grades one through six. Secondary school
consists of grade seven through twelve. All secondary students wear uniforms to school. Students in
public schools in the United States do not wear uniforms at school.
Students in the United States eat a hot lunch at school. Australian students do not.
In Australia large schools are found in cities along the coast. One-teacher schools are located
farther out in the countryside. A teacher in the country may teach all grades, with only one or two
students in a grade. Students living far from the city attend «Schools of the Air». They listen to the
teacher on the radio each day when it’s time for school. Students have their own books. They answer
questions over the microphone. The teacher assigns homework to do. The completed homework is
mailed to the teacher. It is discussed over the microphone, corrected and mailed back. In the United
States some children attend school at home. Their parents are their teachers!
