Reading Comprehension: Read the Text and answer the questions below:
The horrors of modern warfare have made Man think about ways of preserving human life. In 1920 the
League of Nations was formed to keep international peace after World War I. The League of Nations was able
to resolve some conflicts around the world. But it could not oppose the rise of totalitarianism in Germany, Italy
and Japan. Hitler and Mussolini were able to start World War II because the League of Nations could do
nothing about it for the simple reason that it had not enough power of its own.
The United Nations replaced the League of Nations in 1945, just after the end of World War II. Today,
most of the world's independent nations are members, and each has one vote in the General Assembly. Every
member state can refer its disputes with its neighbors to the United Nations Security Council. The UN Security
Council is the body of the United Nations which can take political, economic or military action to settle
international disputes. It has 15 members of which five are permanent (Britain, China, France, the Russian
Federation and the US). It can thus get member states to contribute contingents of soldiers from their own
armies to constitute a UN Task Force. These soldiers, nicknamed `Blue Helmets' are entrusted with keeping
peace in hot spots of the world.
Other agencies of the United Nations include the UN Food and Agricultural Organization, the World
Health Organization and the United Nations Children's Fund. These UN agencies cooperate in fighting disease
and reducing poverty in the world. So far, they have been able to stop killer diseases such as tuberculosis and
smallpox. They will hopefully be able to eradicate other diseases and hunger soon.
