Survey
HomeworkMake a survey----the
biggest problem in our school and near your house.
The problem:
The causes:
The solutions:
Situation one :
A meeting is being held in an area where there is a lot of coal. Coal is a
valuable resource that can be used to produce energy, but it can also cause serious pollution. You will attend the
meeting and discuss the issue
An businessman:• you think that we
should burn the coal because…
• you do not think we should burn the coal because…
An environmentalist:
A scientist:
• you think that we should spend more money on science so that we can use the coal in a better way, because…
A local citizen:
• We must burn the coal so that we can get money to develop our area as soon as possible,because…
A local leader:
• you want to do what is best for everybody. Listen to all the speakers. Take notes, summarise and help the speakers decide
A local leader:
Today we are here to decide whether we should burn the coal. Please tell us whatever you think.
An businessman:
• I think that we should burn the coal.If we don’t burn it now ,may be it will be useless in the future .New energy will be use instead of coal,such as ,solar energy.
A scientist:
• Yes, I quit agree. I think that we should n’t born the coal now.It would be better if we spend more money on science to find a better way of using the coal .Once we know how to burn it without polluting the environment ,we ca make full use of it.
A local citizen:
That sounds quite reasonable,but it’s clear that if we want to develop our area as soon as possible we need money .How can we get the money ?we can only burn the coal to make money to continue our production and development.
A local leader:
OK. All that you said are reasonable.I believe that we must try to use the coal .Meanwhile, we must make sure that the factories which burn the coal take measures to stop polluting the environment.
