[17:20.92]Module 2 Developing and Developed Countries

[17:30.00]Reading and Vocabulary

[17:32.81]Activity 1 Read the passage and answer these questions.

[17:39.70]1.What did world leaders agree to do in 2000?

[17:45.13]2.What doees the Human Development Index 9 measure?

[17:51.58]3.What are the first two Development Goals?

[17:59.27]4.What progress have we made towards these goals?

[18:06.05]5.What do developed countries need to do?

[18:12.68]The Human Development Report

[18:17.50]In the year 2000, 147 world leaders agreed to work together

[18:25.29]to reduce poverty by 2015 or earlier.

[18:29.93]From this agreement came the Human Development Report.

[18:34.93]One of the most important sections of this report

[18:38.79]is the Human Development Index.

[18:41.54]This examines the achievements of 175 countries.

[18:47.02]The Index measures a country's achievements in three ways:

[18:52.33]life expectancy 10 (how long people usually live),education and income.

[19:01.10]The index has some surprises.

[19:04.53]Norway is at the top of the list, while the US is at number 7.

[19:11.21]The other top five countries are: Iceland (2), Sweden(3)

[19:20.32]Australia (4), the Netherlands (5).

[19:25.12]The UK is in the thirteenth position,

[19:29.29]while China is in the middle of the list.

[19:32.59]The bottom ten countries are all African countries,

[19:37.95]with Sierra Leone (in West Africa) at the bottom of the list.

[19:42.75]The report describes eight Development Goals.

[19:46.91]The most important goals are:

[19:49.70]*to reduce poverty and hunger;

[19:52.18]* make sure that all children have education up to the age of 11;

[19:57.41]* fight AIDS and other diseases 11;

[20:00.70]* improve the environment of poor people,

[20:04.33]e.g. make sure they have safe drinking water;

[20:08.38]*encourage developed countries to give more help to other countries.

[20:13.68]The 2003 Human Development Report

[20:18.32]gives examples of successful development.

[20:21.30]For example, in nine years (1953-1962),

[20:27.78]China increased life expectancy by 13 years.

[20:32.84]In the last ten years in China,

[20:36.45]150 million people moved out of poverty.

[20:40.54]However, the challenges are still great.

[20:44.45]Every day 799 million people in developing countries are hungry.

[20:51.79]Over half of these are in South Asia or Africa.

[20:56.11]Although more than 80% of children in developing countries

[21:01.50]go to primary school,

[21:03.39]about 115 million children are not being educated.

[21:08.15]More than I billion people in developing countries

[21:12.72]do not drink safe water.

[21:14.72]However, in other regions 12 of the world, e.g. Eastern Europe,

[21:20.53]water is now mostly safe to drink.

[21:23.95]The report shows that we are making some progress

[21:28.67]but that we need to make greater efforts.

[21:31.95]Although developed countries give some financial help,

[21:35.70]they need to give much more.

[21:37.81]Interestingly,

[21:39.72]the countries that give the most money are the Netherlands,

[21:43.81]Norway and Sweden.

[21:45.54]These are among the five richest countries in the world,

[21:49.45]so it is right that they should do so.

[21:52.25]Pronunciation

[21:56.70]Activity 1

[21:58.15]Listen and repeat sentences 1-4 in Grammar activity 3.

[22:03.90]Notice the rhythm 13.

[22:06.51]Norway is at the top of the list,

[22:10.60]while the United Stares is at number 7.

[22:13.23]The UK is in the thirteenth position,

[22:20.40]while China is in the middle of the list.

[22:23.32]Although more than 80% of children in developing countries go to primary school

[22:33.18]about 115 million children are not being educated.

[22:38.06]Although developed countries give some financial help,

[22:45.93]they need to give much more.

[22:52.43]Activity 2

[23:23.27]while Africa does not have much.

[23:26.77]3.In some parts of Europe, incomes are high,

[23:33.65]while in other parts they are much lower.

[23:36.95]4.Although there is poverty in this area,

[23:43.97]people are happier than in the city

[23:46.25]5.Some children receive a good education,

[23:53.34]while others never go to school at all.
