Reading Task 1. Read to the text. Are the sentences “True” or “False”? and write the “Explanation”.
Going green
In Britain today all political parties are trying to encourage more young people to get involved in politics. This means talking about the issues that are important to them.
The first political party to make the environment an important issue was The Green Party. The party has existed in the UK for about 30 years. (For the first ten years, it was called the Ecology Party.) The Greens do not have any seats in the House of Commons because in general elections most people vote for the three main parties: Labour, the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats. However, they have several MEPs (Members of the European Parliament) and many local councilors across Britain. They campaign on many issues, including:
• animal rights: they want to ban scientific experiments on animals and improve conditions for animals on farms.
• transport: they want to reduce the amount of traffic and pollution by making buses and trains cheaper, and by encouraging people to walk and cycle more.
• green energy: they want to invest in clean, renewable sources of energy - wind farms, wave and solar power.
• food and farming: they are against GM (genetically modified) food and the use of chemicals in farming.
Twenty years ago, politicians who weren't in the Green Party hardly ever talked about 'green' issues like recycling, renewable energy and climate change. But today, all political parties have 'green' policies. People are realizing that the earth is in danger. If we don't change our way of life, the results will be disastrous for our planet.
Choose the “True” or “False”? and write the “Explanation”.
1. The Green Party in the UK used to have a different name.
2. The Green Party has been more successful in local and European elections than in general elections.
3. The Green Party is in favour of scientific experiments on animals if they are really necessary.
4. The Green Party is in favour of people using public transport instead of their cars.
5. The Green Party is the only party in Britain that talks about recycling and renewable energy.
