144. How aware do you think are people today about environmental issues in China? Thats an interesting question. Allow me to explain my personal views by shortly mentioning the following points: Firstly, the air pollution in our cities is making people more aware of the issues because it is affecting them directly. For example, often in the winter one has difficulty breathing outside in the mornings. Secondly, water pollution has resulted in us not being able to drink our water. This means that water for domestic purposes has to be bought at high cost. One aspect that people have to be made more aware of is recycling. Housewives should be taught to sort their garbage into groups like glass, plastic, paper and biodegradable waste. These groups of waste can then be recycled into new products which in turn will save on our use of natural resources. 145. What role does tourism play in Chinas economy? Thats an interesting question. Allow me to explain my personal views by shortly mentioning the following points: Firstly: At the moment tourism is not playing a great role in Chinas economy. This is because of the many years of a closed policy. Many foreign tourists do not know China. As a matter of fact, I have heard that people of the west are afraid to visit China. 146. How serious is unemployment in China? I feel unemployment is very serious in China at he moment, and is growing day by day. More and more people are loosing their jobs everyday. Every person that does not have a job becomes a problem to his or her community and the country as a whole. |
