I. GETTING STARTED
A presentation on the environment
1. Listen and read.
Nam's father: What are you doing, Nam?
Nam: I'm preparing a presentation for my geography class.
Nam's father: What's the topic?
Nam: It's environmental protection. My teacher asked me to do some research, but I don't know where to start.
Nam's father: I think you should identify some environmental problems first. What have you found so far?
Nam: I've come up with a range of environmental issues such as global warming, deforestation, endangered animals and pollution, but I don't know how to organise them.

Nam's father: You should focus on each problem, explain the main causes of it, and then suggest the solutions.
Nam: Thanks, Dad. But presenting all the solutions will be hard.
Nam's father: Have you asked your teacher for advice?
Nam: Yes, I have. She advised me to start with small, practical actions to protect the environment before coming up with big ideas that need a lot of effort or money to succeed.
Nam's father: Sounds good. You'd better follow her advice. When did she ask you to present it?
