But the pollution problem is as complicated as it is serious. It is complicated because of much pollution is caused by things that benefit people.

Factories discharge much of material that pollutes air and water, but factories give employment to the large ‘number of people. ‘Thus, to end or great reduce pollution immediately, people would have to stop using many things that benefit them.

(10ms) Although they are an inexpensive supplier of vitamins, minerals, and high-quality protein, eggs also contain a high level of blood cholesterol, one of the major causes of heart disease. One egg yolk, in fact, contains a little more than two-thirds of suggested daily cholesterol limit. This knowledge has caused egg sales to plummet in recent years, which in turn has brought about the development of several alternatives to eating regular eggs. One alternative is to eat substitute eggs, These egg substitutes are not really eggs, but they look somewhat like eggs when they are cooked ‘They have advantage of having lower cholesterol rates, and they can be scrambled or used in baking. One advantage, however, is that they are not good for frying, poaching, or boiling. A second alternative to regular eggs is a new type of eggs, sometimes called “designer” eggs. These exes are produced by hens that are fed low-fat diets consisting of ingredients such as canola oil, flaw, and rice 4bran, In spite of their diets, however, these hens produce eggs that contain the same amount of cholesterol as regular eggs. Yet, the producers of these eggs claim that eating their eggs will not raise the blood cholesterol in humans. Egg producers claim that their product has been portrayed unfairly. They cite scientific studies to back up their claim. And, in fact, studies on the relationships between eggs and human cholesterol levels have brought mixed results. It may be that it is not the type of eggs that is the main determinant of cholesterol but the person who is eating the eggs. Some people may be more sensitive to cholesterol derived from food than other people. In fact, there is evidence that certain dietary fats stimulate the body's production of blood cholesterol. Consequently, while it is still makes sense to limit one’s intake of eggs, even designer eggs, it seems that doing this without regulating dietary fat will probably not help reduce the blood cholesterol level. 1, What is the main purpose of this passage? A. to inform people about the relation between eggs and cholesterol B. to convince people to eat “designer” eggs and egg substitutes C. to persuade people that eggs are unhealthy and should not be eaten D. to introduce the idea that dietary fat increase the blood cholesterol level 2.

Realistic aims D. Education in developing countries E, Rural primary education for the few F, Educational ideats G. Financing education HH. A view of the future 1. Rural populations of developing countries EDUCATION FOR THE RURAL DISADVANTAGED i ‘The vast majority of people in the developing countries live in rural areas on farms, in villages, or in rural market towns. In some countries, such as Rwanda, Burkina Faso and Malawi more than 90 percent of the total population lives in the rural areas. The prediction is that the rural populations of the less-developed countries will increase significantly in the decades to come. The UN predicts these will increase from 1,9 billion in 1970 to 2.6 billion by 1990. Thailand’s rural population alone will increase from 30.6 million in 1970 to 570 million by the year 2000. Furthermore, because of high birth rates and declining infant mortality rates, more than half of the rural population of developing countries is under 20 years of age. This raises serious implications for education. The main purpose of education is to provide everybody (not only those in urban areas) with relevant knowledge, skills, attitudes and ideas which will enable them to lead more fulfilling, productive and satisfying lives. To assert that everyone has a “right” to education has little practice meaning unless this “tight” is translated into terms of some “minimum package” of attitudes, knowledge and skills for all people in a given society. To do otherwise is to create a privileged class at the expense of everyone else. Vague ‘objectives such as “giving every child a good basic education” are meaningless when huge sections of the population are getting little or no education at all People in rural areas suffer from inadequate education facilities and opportunities. In most rural areas in developing countries, the out-of-school group constitutes a vast majority of the whole population from, say, 10 to 20 years old. For all practical purposes, they are beyond the reach of formal education but no section of the community should be unchanged by its educational system. ‘Where there are rural primary schools they benefit far fewer rural young people thaneducational statistics often imply. Primary schools, instead of being the great equalizers of educational opportunity they were meant to be, are the great discriminators. In the rural areas, they equip only a small minority of the young for effective and satisfying adulthood. The majority of rural youngsters are used to living out the ignorance and poverty. This vicious circle has to be broken; the goal must be to provide everybody with basic knowledge and skills. Rather than attempt to enroll every child for a seven or eight year cycle of primary schooling, which is not financially feasible anyway for many countries for many years to come, the strategy should be a shorter four to five year primary cycle to provide every child with the minimum educational needs - literacy, numeracy, health education and those technical and business skills needed to make a decent living, This primary education should be geared for the large majority who will not continue their studies beyond this stage, who will enter straight into productive life.
