[17:20.92]Module 2 Developing and Developed Countries
[17:30.00]Reading and Vocabulary
[17:32.81]Activity 1 Read the passage and answer these questions.
[17:39.70]1.What did world leaders agree to do in 2000?
[17:45.13]2.What doees the Human Development Index⁹ measure?
[17:51.58]3.What are the first two Development Goals?
[17:59.27]4.What progress have we made towards these goals?
[18:06.05]5.What do developed countries need to do?
[18:12.68]The Human Development Report
[18:17.50]In the year 2000, 147 world leaders agreed to work together
[18:25.29]to reduce poverty by 2015 or earlier.
[18:29.93]From this agreement came the Human Development Report.
[18:34.93]One of the most important sections of this report
[18:38.79]is the Human Development Index.
[18:41.54]This examines the achievements of 175 countries.
[18:47.02]The Index measures a country's achievements in three ways:
[18:52.33]life expectancy¹⁰ (how long people usually live),education and income.
[19:01.10]The index has some surprises.
[19:04.53]Norway is at the top of the list, while the US is at number 7.
[19:11.21]The other top five countries are: Iceland (2), Sweden(3)
[19:20.32]Australia (4), the Netherlands (5).
[19:25.12]The UK is in the thirteenth position,
[19:29.29]while China is in the middle of the list.
[19:32.59]The bottom ten countries are all African countries,
[19:37.95]with Sierra Leone (in West Africa) at the bottom of the list.
[19:42.75]The report describes eight Development Goals.
[19:46.91]The most important goals are:
[19:49.70]*to reduce poverty and hunger;
[19:52.18]* make sure that all children have education up to the age of 11;
[19:57.41]* fight AIDS and other diseases¹¹;
[20:00.70]* improve the environment of poor people,
[20:04.33]e.g. make sure they have safe drinking water;
[20:08.38]*encourage developed countries to give more help to other countries.
[20:13.68]The 2003 Human Development Report
[20:18.32]gives examples of successful development.
[20:21.30]For example, in nine years (1953-1962),
[20:27.78]China increased life expectancy by 13 years.
[20:32.84]In the last ten years in China,
[20:36.45]150 million people moved out of poverty.
[20:40.54]However, the challenges are still great.
[20:44.45]Every day 799 million people in developing countries are hungry.
[20:51.79]Over half of these are in South Asia or Africa.
[20:56.11]Although more than 80% of children in developing countries
[21:01.50]go to primary school,
[21:03.39]about 115 million children are not being educated.
[21:08.15]More than I billion people in developing countries
[21:12.72]do not drink safe water.
[21:14.72]However, in other regions¹² of the world, e.g. Eastern Europe,
[21:20.53]water is now mostly safe to drink.
[21:23.95]The report shows that we are making some progress
[21:28.67]but that we need to make greater efforts.
[21:31.95]Although developed countries give some financial help,
[21:35.70]they need to give much more.
[21:37.81]Interestingly,
[21:39.72]the countries that give the most money are the Netherlands,
[21:43.81]Norway and Sweden.
[21:45.54]These are among the five richest countries in the world,
[21:49.45]so it is right that they should do so.
[21:52.25]Pronunciation
[21:56.70]Activity 1

[22:13.23]The UK is in the thirteenth position,
[22:20.40]while China is in the middle of the list.
[22:23.32]Although more than 80% of children in developing countries go to primary school
[22:33.18]about 115 million children are not being educated.
