Текст аудирования:
(L = Liam S = Sally)
L: Today wetaskre looking at the Energy Crisis, and Sally and I are going to talk about oil. What is it, where does it come from, and what exactly is the problem?
S: People sometimes call oil ‘Black gold’ – it’s one of the worldtasks most valuable resources. But what exactly is it used for? Well, just look around you! It’s in plastics, it’s in paint, it’s even in your shampoo! And of course it’s also used for fuel and for heating ...
L: So, where does oil come from? Well, there’s oil on every continent in the world. But most oil comes from the Middle East - Saudi Arabia is the biggest producer.
S: Let’s look now at some of the problems with oil. Apart from the price of it of course, and the fact that there isn’t much left! First of all, there’s the problem of global warming. As you know, oil is a fossil fuel, and these pollute the atmosphere when we burn them. It’s this pollution which contributes to global warming.
L: Another big problem is the transportation of oil. Huge tankers have to transport oil across the sea and sometimes disasters happen. Back in 2002, the Prestige sank near the coast of Spain, and caused an ecological disaster.
S: There’s also the problem of oil in Antarctica. At the moment, it’s illegal for companies to look for oil in Antarctica, but what if this changes? They would destroy the continent’s eco-system if they started exploiting it for oil.
L: So, these are some of the problems. Obviously we need to start finding some alternatives for our energy needs. We need to be looking at things like solar power, wind power, maybe even nuclear power. Did you know that scientists say we’ve only got enough oil for another 40 years? But that’s a whole new topic which Karen and Paul are going to talk about next week. Has anyone got any questions?
