The Aral Sea is one of the most ancient lakes on Earth, with a history of 3,500 years. It was also the fourth largest lake in the world until the late 1950s. It is dying now. The sea has dropped by 16 meters and the water has become too salty. There are now three million hectares of land which were once covered by water. The climate has been affected and changed this land into desert. The Amu Darya and Syr Darya rivers feed the Aral Sea. They travel through Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan. In the 1920s new irrigation technologies were introduced and larger-scale cotton cultivation was begun. Water from the rivers was diverted for agricultural and population needs. Between 50 and 60 cubic kilometers of water reached the Aral Sea each year until the 1950s. The Aral Sea has lost almost 75 per cent of its volume and has shrunk to 50 per cent of its size since the 1960s. In the 1980s in some dry years no water flowed into the sea at all. The water has become over-salty and lost most of its natural plant and animal life. The low quality of water has caused many diseases. Annually thousands of tons of dust, sand and salt are taken into the atmosphere from the deserted floor of the Aral Sea and some of the particles are found as far away as Canada. The National Geographic summed up the situation by saying: 'It has never happened within the time frame of a single generation, the disappearance of such a large body of water.'

АудированиеTelevision has many advantages and disadvantages. First the advantages: it keeps us informed about the latest news. You don't have to buy a newspaper to know about the current news or weather forecast. Secondly, television provides entertainment in the home; you can watch a movie that you like without going to the cinema, or you can enjoy various music channels when you come back home tired. Besides this, it helps us to know more about the world, the people that live in it, and the cultures that they represent. All of these widen people's outlook. On the other hand, television has been blamed for the violent behaviour of some young people. The violent movies that are shown on TV affect teenagers badly. In addition, television encourages children to sit indoors, instead of taking exercise. Research shows that in the past two decades, children's interest in reading has decreased by 45%. Some people believe that television has killed the art of conversation. In conclusion, we can say that television has both good and bad features. One thing is true: it has definitely brought changes to our lives.

Лексика
These days the mass media help people to realize how important their environment is. People read newspapers and magazines, they watch TV and listen to the radio and find out that in one year a European family throws away a lot of wastes about 50 kilos of paper and about 60 kilos of plastic. Headlines of the articles remind us that many kinds of domestic rubbish can be still useful. Most kinds of glass and paper, metal, plastic can be recycled. Today switching to any channel anyone can watch a talk show or the news about the ecological problems. The internet proved to be the most popular mass media among the young people. Searching the internet teenagers can find out that many people get ill and even die because of air and water pollution. Hopefully, it will make the young people think twice and they will quit throwing away cans of drink, cigarette packets and plastic packaging. It’s possible that TV programmes, newspapers and magazines, would influence people’s minds and the future generations would manage to make our planet more clean.
