Exercise 6

There are a myriad of lifestyle issues affecting the youth of today. Such is the pressure heaped on many school-goers to achieve academic excellence by their parents that these

_________ (1) expectations are causing children to become hopelessly depressed. Indeed, some, in their_________ (2) to escape and their sense of guilt at being unable reach the levels of success demanded of them by their _________ (3) parents, either rebel in what is _________

(4) to a cry for help, or, worse still, engage in _________ (5). It is no coincidence that suicide rates, expecially amongst young males, have been rising steadily for some time now. These are tough times to be a teen.

Then there are those who get hooked on the internet; the _________ (6) world becomes their reality. For these teens, their social circle shrinks _________ (7) until, at last, their friendship sphere is limited solely to their online _________ (8).

truth told, whatever anything is, it seldom 'goes' for much longer than a half hour or so at any rate before it is interrupted by a commercial break. And don't even get me started on those appalling _________ (4) most of the networks run right the way through the night, one after another, for up to thirty minutes at a time. lt is truly painful. Terrestrial television is now, as far as I am concerned, a laughing stock. All the quality has been bought up by the satellite networks, with their big-money weight behind them, but even here _________ (5) are slim. In protest at the dire state of things, I have become a converted _________ (6). I look to the web now to find good content. There, I can find just enough _________ (7) of quality programmes to prevent myself from falling into utter despair and pining for the good old days of _________ (8).

Exercise 8

In January 2001, the _________ (1) Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) issued its latest report on climate change. Climate models worked out by giant super-computers had become far more reliable since the previous report in 1995 and allowed them to _________ (2) the earlier projections for global warming. Their conclusions were that something very serious is happening and that it cannot be a natural process. The 1990s was the hottest decade for 1,000 years and the Earth is warming faster than at any time in the last 10,000 years. According to the report, human activities are _________ (3) to blame for the temperature rise. The burning of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide and, due to deforestation, there are fewer trees to absorb this gas and recycle it back into oxygen. Methane _________ (4) have also gone up dramatically because of increases in rice culture and _________ (5), both of which generate methane from _________ (6) vegetation. These greenhouses gases trap heat in the Earth’s atmosphere and cause the temperature to rise. In the worst case, the resulting melting of icecaps and glaciers would cause sea levels to rise by up to 88 cm, endangering the homes and _________ (7) of tens of millions of people who live in low-lying regions. Unfortunately, there is far greater _________ (8) among the world’s scientists over the issue than among politicians. As long ago as 1990, the IPCC recommended a 60% reduction in carbon dioxide _________ (9), as the basic level required to return the planet’s climate to a healthy level. Governments globally failed to _________ (10) these proposals. Now that the dangers have been reaffirmed by the latest report, it is high time that governments took an active interest in exploring alternative, renewable energy sources.

Exercise 9

People intuitively recognize the importance of self-esteem to their psychological health, so it isn't particularly remarkable that most of us try to protect and enhance it in ourselves whenever possible. What is remarkable is that attention to self-esteem has become a(n) _________(1) concern, at least for Americans, who see a favorable opinion of oneself as the central psychological source from which all manner of positive outcomes spring. The corollary, that low self-esteem lies at the root of individual and thus _________(2) problems and _________(3), has sustained an ambitious social agenda for decades. Indeed, campaigns to raise people's sense of self-worth abound. Consider what transpired in California in the late 1980s. Prodded by State Assemblyman John Vasconcellos, Governor George Deukmejian set up a task force on self-esteem and personal and social responsibility. Vasconcellos argued that raising self-esteem in young people would reduce crime, teen pregnancy, drug abuse, school _________(4) and pollution. At one point, he even expressed the hope that these efforts would one day help balance the state budget, a prospect predicated on the observation that people with high _________(5) earn more than others and thus pay more in taxes. Along with its other activities, the task force assembled a team of scholars to survey the relevant literature. The results appeared in a 1989 volume _________(6) The Social Importance of Self-Esteem, which stated that "many, if not most, of the major problems plaguing society have roots in the low self-esteem of many of the people who make up society." In reality, the report contained little to support that assertion.

work. The pop art movement was largely a British and American cultural phenomenon of the late 1950s and ‘60s. Art critic Lawrence Alloway, referring to the prosaic _________(3) of its painting and sculpture, named the movement pop art. It represented an attempt to return to a more objective and _________(4) accepted form of art after the dominance in both the United States and Europe of the highly personal abstract _________(5). The art form was iconoclastic, rejecting the _________(6) of the ‘high art’ of the past and the _________(7) of other contemporary avant-garde art. Pop art became a cultural institution because of its close reflection of a particular social situation and because its easily _________(8) images were immediately exploited by the mass media. Although the critics of pop art describe it as sensational and non-aesthetic, its proponents saw it as an art that was democratic and not _________(9), bringing together both connoisseurs and untrained inexperienced viewers. Even though public reaction to pop art was _________(10), it found critical acceptance as a form of art suited to the highly technological, mass media-oriented society of western countries.
