Task 2:What's your answer? Two speakers hold a negative attitude toward the world climate conference. Task 3:Let's group work!
Developed countries should bear more responsibilities.
First, they caused most of the world pollution in their industrialization process.
Second, they are already economically advanced, with more funds to deal with pollution problems.
On the other hand, developing countries caused less pollution in the past, and now they need rapid development.
Therefore, an international agreement the Kyoto Protocol in 1997 stipulated common but differentiated responsibilities for developed and developing nations, which means that both should be responsible for environmental protection and cut carbon dioxide emissions, but the former must take more responsibility.
Recently, however, some wealthy countries have insisted that developing countries like China should shoulder more responsibilities. VI. Further Listening and Speaking Listening Task:
