(Please send the mispronounced words and expressions to your student.)

PART B_2

We are not certain of the amount of pesticides we can safely consume. It may be a good idea to consume less of them, but not everyone can afford to regularly buy organic food. For example, organic eggs may cost 50% more than the ordinary kind, but an organic chicken can cost 6 times more than the price of the factory-farmed ones.

It is easy for us to forget that we would not have so much cheap food without industrial farming methods. Many people would say we should give up meat every day. It provides health, ethical, and ecological reasons. Some may argue that we have become used to a way of life that is destroying our environment and harming our health. Critics, on the other hand, consider it too idealistic to think that we can produce the food the world needs organically.

The main problem with organic seems to be the fact that it opposes big businesses by being one. Many products are unsustainable; they may be good for us, but not for the planet. What we can do is replace “organic” with “local” or “hand-made.”

PART B_2

Father of the Paralympic Games

Dr. Ludwig Guttman used sports as an important step in recovery. Wheelchair polo and archery were the sports first introduced to the patients. These are sports that only use upper body strength to compete with others. In 1948, Guttman organized an archery competition on the hospital grounds. 16 patients from Stoke Mandeville and other hospitals competed against each other. As more sports and teams were added, the event began to spread. In 1960, the first international games for the disabled were held in Rome. As 400 athletes from 23 countries joined the competition, the event eventually developed into the Paralympic Games.

The patients enjoyed playing the games and competing with each other. Aside from helping them feel better, the Paralympics gave them opportunities to meet other people and helped the patients return to society. Philip Lewis, one of Guttman’s patients and a Paralympic medalist, showed his talent in archery and table tennis. He later represented Great Britain in the Paralympics. Lewis said that Guttman knew that sports were good for us, both physically and mentally. The Paralympic games give hope and courage to people as they spread all over the world. Athletes know that it is ability, not disability, that counts to live life to the fullest.
