Fist, there is raw sewage, which is pumped directly into sea. Many countries, both development and developing, are guilty of doing this. Secondly, ships drop about 6 million tons of garbage into the sea each year. Thirdly, there are oil leaks from the vessel. This not only pollutes the water, but it also kills marine life. Next, there are waste materials from factories. Without proper regulations, factory owners let the waste run directly into the rivers, which then leads to the sea. And finally, oil is washed from land. This can be dumping of waste.

* Tape transcript:
“Good evening. Welcome to our Science For Fun Program. This week, we’ve received a lot of questions asking about life on the moon. We’ve talked to some experts and this is what we’ve found out. There is no water or air on the moon. It is all silent because there is no air. Of course, there will be no music, no sounds. There are no rivers and no lakes. At night, it is very cold. The temperature rises to 1000C above zero.
There are great round holes on the moon. They look like big lakes. They are called craters. There are more than 30.000 craters on the moon. There are also high mountains. The highest mountains on the moon are about 26.000 feet or 8.000 meters high.
And here is something very interesting to know: on the moon you weigh one sixth of what you weigh on earth. If you weight 50 kilos, on the moon you will weigh only a little more than an Olympic Champion. You can take very long steps as well. And May be you won’t sleep very well because one day the moon lasts for 2 weeks.
So, is there life on the moon? I’ll leave the questions for you answer yourself”.
II. Comprehension questions

1. Because there is no air on the moon
2. There are about 30.000 craters on the moon
3. If I weigh 50 kilos, I’ll weigh only a little more than 8 kilos.
4. No, we won’t. Because one day lasts for two weeks on the moon.
- Ask students to practice asking and answering in pairs.
* Revision of modal verbs: may and might
