Joining car clubs is a good way to get around in cities. There are many car clubs in the US. You can use a car when you want to, and it’s cheaper than having a personal car.
You only pay for the car when you drive it. You can’t always use the car because sometimes you can take a bus, or walk or ride a bike. This is healthier for the city, as there will be fewer cars on the road. It is also healthier for you.
11 Work in pairs and discuss this question.
Do you think car clubs would be popular in China
Why/Why not
World population and water
With more and more people in the world, more and more water is used. In fact,
water use is growing more than twice as fast as the world’s population! As a result,
getting good, clean water is becoming a problem in many places. A lot of water
is polluted and in many areas people have to walk a long way to get clean water
for daily use. More than 3.4 million people die each year from drinking and washing
with polluted water. So let’s do everything we can to stop the pollution and save water.
Around the world

A possible answer:
In the graph, we can see how the population in the town changed between 1900 and 2000. We can see the population going up the vertical line and the years going across the horizontal line. The graph shows the population increased by more than one hundred percent from two and a half million to five million in one hundred years. At first it increased very slowly, but after 1945 it increased much more quickly. From 1990 to 2000, the population even increased by one million. The town itself also grew in size during this time.
