Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
One of the most urgent environmental problems in the world today is the shortage of
clean water. Having clean drinking water is a basic human right. However, acid rain, industrial
pollution and garbage have made many sources of water undrinkable. Lakes, reservoirs and even
entire seas have become vast pools of poison. Lake Baikal in Russia is one of the largest lakes in
the world. It contains a rich variety of animals and plants, including 1,300 rare species that do
not exist anywhere else in the world. Yet, they are being destroyed by the massive volumes of
industrial effluent which pour into the lake every day. Even though laws have been made, the
government does not have the power to enforce them. Most industries simply ignore the
regulations. The Mediterranean Sea occupies 1% of the world’s water surface, but it is the
dumping ground for 50% of all marine pollution. Almost 16 countries regularly throw industrial
wastes a few miles off shore.
Water is free to everyone. A few years ago, people thought that the supply of clean water
in the world was limitless. Today, many water supplies have been ruined by pollution and
sewage. Clean water is now scarce, and we are at last beginning to respect this precious source.
We should do something now.
