I had a terrible day last Friday. It was around 9 in the morning and I was alone as all of my family had already gone to work. I'd had breakfast but I hadn't got dressed yet. I went into the kitchen and saw that the rubbish bin needed emptying. So I picked up the bin liner and went to take it outside. I opened the front door and went along the corridor to the place where you leave your rubbish. As I was putting the bag down I felt a draught of air and heard a bang. When I came back to my flat, I saw that the door was closed. The wind had blown it shut. I put my hand in the pocket of my pyjamas, but I had left my keys inside. So I went down to the security man to phone my husband. But they told me he had gone to China for the day! I tried ringing my neighbour's door bell, but they had already gone to work. So I had to wait all day in the corridor outside my flat!
Climate change is a real problem, but its 1) importance has been 2) grossly exaggerated. It's far less important than other social problems such as povetry, infectious diseases 3) deforestation, and 4) extinction of species, not to mention war, nuclear weapons and 5) biological weapons. We don't know whether the observed climate changes are, on balance, good or bad for the health of the biosphere. And the effects atmospheric carbon dioxide as a 6) effects on fertilize (здесь опечатка) of plant 7) growth are at least as important as its effects climate. So, we agree that more research is needed to improve 8) scientific 9) understanding of global 10) warming.
