Living together in society

1 Hell, said Jean-Paul Sartre, is other people, and whether you agree with
2 or not, we are all have to learn to live together. We may not always
3 approve of that other people's behaviour, but we do have to live with it.
4 It is impossible to force other people in to behave exactly how we think
5 they should behave. Of course, the law bans from all kinds of behaviour
6 and if you can convince to enough people, you might be able to get the
7 government to pass a new law. Mostly, though, you have to let off people
8 live their own lives, in the same way you expect them to allow you for to
9 live your life.You don't have to pretend it that you like how some other
10 people live, but letting them to be themselves is often the only choice .

exciting pasta dish – for the main course. It wasn't bad, but the waiter kept (12) …………………….
coming over to see if we had finished. We hadn't. I'll leave (13) ……………….…. a description of

LOCAL NEWS IN BRIEF
Thresham Valley under water?
Plans to turn much of the Thresham Valley into a large (1) puddle / reservoir to provide
drinking water for the local area have received mixed reactions. Local councillors have praised
the scheme, arguing that the environmental I and economic benefits of (2) flooding /
pouring the valley will far outweigh the disadvantages. Several small (3) rural /
urban communities - two villages, three hamlets and two farms – in the valley will disappear,
however.
Lucky escape for farmer
A farmer was struck by (4) lightning / thunder on Thursday evening, while mending a fence in
one of his (5) plains / fields. The farmer, Jack Dobson, received treatment for slight burns at
Meldew Hospital. Talking about the incident later, he said: 'It was (6) drizzling /
showering slightly when I went out, but I'd checked the weather (7) prediction / forecast and it
hadn't said there was going to be a thunderstorm. It was lucky I was wearing my Wellington
boots!'
Save bags and save money

Shoppers at a local supermarket are being urged notto throw away the supermarket's plastic
shopping bags. Aspokesperson for Asdo said: 'For every new bag we make, the factory has to
pump out industrial (8) waste / litter and that's increasing pollution in the (9) suburban /
surrounding area. We want to reduce the number of bags we make each year. We're offering a
financial incentive to our customers to (10) reuse / repeat their bags by bringing them with
them every time J they shop with us rather than getting new ones each time.'
An academic from Davington University has caused controversy by claiming that (11) global /
worldwide warming is not caused by human disregard for the (12) weather / environment. In her
new book entitled Are We to Blame?, Professor Angela Lucini argues that large-scale changes in the
Mediterranean (13) land / climate, for example, have taken place ever since the world was formed.
'People weren't responsible for the Ice Ages, or their coming to an end, I and we certainly weren't
responsible for the fact the dinosaurs became (14) extinct / endangered so it's a bit presumptuous
of us to think we're responsible for all the problems we’re facing now, isn't it?' she said.
Councillor calls for an end to the fireplace
Local councillor Davina Forrest is calling for a ban on the use of coal fires at home. 'There's no doubt
that if domestic chimneys stopped pumping out (15) smoke / fog into the atmosphere, the (16) air /
wind we'd all be breathing would be much (17) cleaner / clearer,' she said.
