English exam

ENGLISH EXAM CLASS: 3LV/ LPH .
Part one: Read the llllllll and do the activities(14 pts)
llllllll:
Corruption is the abuse of entrusted power for privet gain. Corruption
hurts everyone,and it hurts the poor the most. For example, a father who
must do without decent clothes because he is unable to pay a bribe to
get his child into a supposedly free school. A sick person who buys
counterfeit drus , putting his or her health in danger.
Other times the impact of corruption is less visible. For instance,
post-disasters donations that never reach victims, callously diverted
instead into the bank accounts of criminals, or the faulty buildings,
built to lower safety standards because a bribe passed under the table
in the construction process that collaps in an earthquake or hurricane.
Corruption has considerable consequences, trapping millions in poverty and breeding social, economic and political unrest.
Corruption denies poor people the basic means of survival, forcing them
to spend more of their income on bribes. Human rights are denied where
corruption is rife.
Corruption undermines democracy and the rule of law. It distorts
national and international trade, threatens domestic and international
security and the sustainability of natural resources.
Corruption compounds political exclusion: if votes can be bought, there
is little incentive to change the system that sustains poverty.
As a conclusion, corruption hurts everyone whose life, livelihood or
happiness depends on the integrity of people in a position of authority.
