Bacalaureat 2005

Biletul Nr. 6

1. Read the text below and answer the following questions:


a. What is Greenpeace?
b. What is the position held by Greenpeace?
c. What does the expression "strengthen the thin green line"
mean?

The natural world is under violent assault from man.


The seas and rivers are being poisoned by radioactive wastes, by chemical
discharges and by the dumping of dangerous toxins and raw sewage. The air we
breathe is polluted by smoke and fumes from factories and motor vehicles; even
the rain is poisoned.
But there is still hope. The forces of destruction are being challenged across
the globe and at the spearhead of this challenge is Greenpeace.
Whenever the environment is in danger, Greenpeace has made a stand. Its
scientific presentations and peaceful direct actions at sea and on land have
shocked governments and industries into an awareness that Greenpeace will not
allow the natural world to be destroyed.
Those actions, too, have won the admiration and support of millions.
Now you can strengthen the thin green line; you can make your voice heard
in defence of the living world by joining Greenpeace today.
