Look at SUGGESTIONS and match them with their RESULTS.

Then link the sentences with so that or to and talk about how you can

improve the living conditions in our cities.

D. People won’t have to use cars to get around.

E. The harmful gases won’t be able to pollute the atmosphere.

Task 2

Your town is facing serious problems. The streets are full of

rubbish, there are too many cars, people keep cutting down the trees to

make space for more building, the nearby river is being polluted with

chemicals from factories and people are stomach illnesses. Suggest

ways of improving the situation, explaining the results of each sug-

gestion. Use the ideas from the previous task and add your own ideas.

Use words of wisdom: ‘In the eyes of nature we are just another species

in trouble.’

For example:

Rubbish: stricter fines, more bins, advertising (posters around

the city), recycling schemes.

Result: cleaner streets, fewer rats / diseases

Too many cars: ban cars from city centre, improve public trans-

port.

Results: cleaner air, fewer health problems, quieter.

Cutting down trees: for every tree cut down plant ten new ones.

Results: animals won’t lose their natural habitat, there will be

enough oxygen.

Water pollution: heavy fines for factory owners who pollute ri-

vers, lakes or the sea.

Results: marine life won’t be threatened, we can swim in the sea

and drink the water from rivers or lakes, fewer health problems, etc.
