Audioscript:(10’)
WATER POLLUTION
All living things need water to stay alive, which is why water is our most precious
natural resource. For this reason, it is important to learn about the causes of water
pollution.
Water pollution is simply any harmful thing that is added to water. There are many
causes of water pollution, but you cannot always see what is polluting it. Water can look
clear, yet still be unsafe. It can be polluted by microscopic organisms, which are so tiny,
they can only be seen with a microscope. These organisms are sometimes contagious and
can make us sick. One cause of microscopic organisms in water is sewage from pipes.
Another major cause of water pollution is the fertilizers farmers use to make their crops
grow fast and the pesticides they use to kill bugs and rodents. When it rains, these
fertilizers and pesticides can wash off into waterways.
In addition, wastewater from factories contains harmful chemicals that can be poisonous
to marine life. This wastewater is also very hot, and when it is pumped into waterways, it
has the effect of heating up the temperature of the water. Many plants and animals cannot
survive if the temperature of the water rises due to lack of oxygen.
Litter also pollutes waterways. When not disposed of properly, garbage shows up on the
shorelines of beaches and can also be harmful to marine animals. Moreover, anything
with a sharp edge can cut a mammal or fish. Marine animals are also known to mistake
garbage for food.
Petroleum companies ship their oil all over the world in large supertankers, but accidents
do happen. An important cause of water pollution and a great loss of marine life along
shorelines is accidental oil spills by these large supertankers.
T: Now, listen to the audio again. Put a number from 1 to 5 next to these phrases . What
does the first paragraph refer to ?
SEA: pollution/microscopic organisms.
T: Ok! Listen to and write from number 2 to 5 on the dotted line. Pay attention!
After the listening activity
T: Ok. Now match the pictures with its corresponding picture. Is it clear?
SEA: Yes/si!
