PART ONE: Reading and interpreting (14pts)
When I wake up each morning and read the newspaper, I ask myself, everyday, the same question: “what is wrong with the world?”
The world today is richer than it has ever been before. With the help of science, we are now able to use the wealth of our world to our maximum benefit. We are more educated than our ancestors ever dreamed of. We have access to more knowledge. I ask myself everyday what, then, is wrong with our world? I can answer that question with three words: it is sick.
It is sick with fear, instability and insecurity. Sick with tension and terrorism. Sick with power, greed and even with its own richness. And because there is so much sickness in the world today, it is in a state of perpetual war. Everyday, as I read the news, I see nations at war with each other.
Of the 4 billion people who live in our planet, nearly three quarters are undernourished and one quarter is overfed.
Just look at the contrast. In some developed countries, they burn crops to keep up their prices, whereas in poor countries thousands of children starve to death in the desert sun. In western countries, they have mountains of butter melting to waste while in Asia and Latin America, a peasant often has to pay half a day’s wage for cooking oil. In the rich countries, people die not of hunger but of over eating. Rich or poor, the reality we see over the world is the same: the world is sick, it is at war.
But I am a dreamer. I hope that one ay all the people of the world will work together rather than fight each other. They will establish a firm and lasting peace which promotes the unity and brotherhood, based on mutual respect, understanding, and acceptance of the other.
