Work book Unit 9 Listening
Carl has just returned from a trip to Egypt.
As part of a team that helps protect the earth's water sources,
he worked on a project to solve the serious problem.
Listen to the interview on the tape and answer the questions below.
Part One
A:Can you tell me about the project you worked on in Egypt?
B:Egypt has developed a large program to clean up and protect its water.
One of the projects is to help small farmers
build small channels to make sure that the water supplied by the government
can be used in the best way possible.
A:So,what was the problem?
It was often difficult for farmers to keep the channels clean and in good order.
The channels were used as rubbish bins
and too many plants grew where the water should flow.
A:How did you solve the problem?
At first,we thought that the farmers simply didn't understand the situation,
and that we could solve the problem by educating them.
But just make sure we interviewed some farmers and observed what they were doing.
A:What did you do to learn more about the farmers and their work?
B:Well,we visited many farmers and their families,
We also formed small discussion groups
in which we talked about the problem and what could be done about it.
A:What do the farmers think and do?
B:We found that the farmers did know about the problem,
and had paid a company to clean the channels.
But they didn't do it often enough.
Part two
A:Why didn't the farmers clean the channels often enough?
B:They thought that the government was responsible for the channels.
And they only clean them up when there was too much rubbish.
They felt that this was unfair and didn't believe what the government said
A:And how did the government react to this?
B:Well,they were very surprised.
They decided to show the farmers that there were serious about the problem.
Farmers and the government would work together.
The farmers formed a group that would oversee the work.
A special channel cleaning day was chosen and farmers
and the government decided to share the costs.
The farmers would pay for the cleaning equipment
and the government would pay for taking the rubbish away.
A:That sounds like a good solution.
B:It was. Working together also give people a chance to understand the dangerous of throwing rubbish in the channels.
It stops the water from flowing,
and made it dangerous for children to swim in the channel.
and for women to use the water at home.
A:Were the farmers happy about the solution?
B:Yes,they were. The project was a success.
By working together
more things were achieved and everybody learned from the experience.
