LA POLLUTION
Comment décrire la pollution ? On peut la désigner en expliquant qu’il s’agit de quelque chose
qui gêne la nature, la pollue et qui ne disparaît pas tout seul. Nous, on est en train de polluer tout
le temps, consciemment ou inconsciemment. Par exemple, vous achetez quelque chose dans un
sac en plastique. Ensuite, vous consommez le produit et le jetez par terre. Dans une ville en
Inde, on peut toujours trouver des sacs sur la terre en plastique qui polluent la terre. De plus en
plus, on trouve de tout en plastique – les chips, la glace, l’eau minérale etc. En fait, ce problème
est lié à la consommation.
Un autre type de pollution, c’est la pollution atmosphérique. Toutes les voitures émettent du gaz
nocif qui pollue la nature. Le gouvernement essaie d’imposer des lois pour la maîtriser mais ce
n’est pas facile de le faire.
La pollution, c’est un des plus grands problèmes d’aujourd’hui. Nous devons tous faire attention
à ne pas polluer et de lutter contre la pollution.
I. Répondez :
a) Qu’est-ce que c’est la pollution ?
b) Comment les voitures polluent l’atmosphère ?
Paul : Bonjour !
Dominique : Enchanté ! Au revoir !
Dominique : Ah, vous êtes français ?
Paul : Je viens de France.
Dominque : Je m’appelle Dominique. Vous venez d’où ?
Paul : Oui, Je suis français et vous ?
Paul : Je m’appelle Paul, et vous ?
Dominique : Je suis américain.
Paul : Enchanté !
Dominique : Bonjour, comment vous appelez-vous ?

The representatives of the third estate viewed themselves as spokesmen for the whole French nation.
On 20 June they assembled in the hall of an indoor tennis court in the grounds of Versailles. They
declared themselves a National Assembly and swore not to disperse till they had drafted a constitution
for France that would limit the powers of the monarch. They were led by Mirabeau and Abbe Sieyes.
Source B - Did Women have a Revolution?
About sixty women’s clubs came up in different French cities. The Society of Revolutionary and
Republican Women was the most famous of them. One of their main demands was that women enjoy
the same political rights as men. Women were disappointed that the
Constitution of 1791 reduced them to passive citizens. They demanded the right to vote, to be elected to
the Assembly and to hold political office. Only then, they felt, would their interests be represented in
the new government.
Source C - The Abolition of Slavery
The colonies in the Caribbean - Martinique, Guadeloupe and San Domingo - were important
suppliers of commodities such as tobacco, indigo, sugar and coffee. But the reluctance of Europeans to
go and work in distant and unfamiliar lands meant a shortage of labour on the plantations. So this was
met by a triangular slave trade between Europe, Africa and the Americas. The slave trade began in the
seventeenth century.

meant for French ?

Source A – The Outbreak of the Revolution
After spending hours in long queues at the bakery, crowds of angry women stormed into the shops. At
the same time, the king ordered troops to move into Paris. On 14 July, the agitated crowd stormed and
destroyed the Bastille.
Source B – France Abolishes Monarchy and Becomes a Republic
Rulers of other neighbouring countries too were worried by the developments in France and made plans
to send troops to put down the events that had been taking place there since the summer of 1789.
Before this could happen, the National Assembly voted in April 1792 to declare war against Prussia
and Austria. Thousands of volunteers thronged from the provinces to join the army. They saw this as a
war of the people against kings and aristocracies all over Europe.
Source C – What is liberty? Two conflicting views
‘To establish and consolidate democracy, to achieve the peaceful rule of constitutional laws, we must
first finish the war of liberty against tyranny .... We must annihilate the enemies of the republic at home
and abroad, or else we shall perish. In time of Revolution a democratic government may rely on terror.
Terror is nothing but justice, swift, severe and inflexible; ... and is used to meet the most urgent needs
of the fatherland. To curb the enemies of Liberty through terror is the right of the founder of the
Republic.’
(1) Why was there anger among the people ?
(2) What do you think the reason behind the worries of the rulers of the neighbouring countries ?
(3) Do you think Robespierre was really leading the war against the enemies of the republic?

SCIENCE
The existence of life on Earth is nothing short of a miracle. Just the right proportions of elements, the right
distance from the sun and appropriate shielding from asteroids and other space objects.
Often, humans fail to appreciate the rarity of life. We go on and on, exploiting the earth's resources and polluting
the environment.
It is our moral responsibility to conserve natural resources and protect the environment for the future generations.
Interview any 3 entrepreneurs of your society and ask them about how they contribute in conserving the
environment. Gather knowledge and subsequently design a pamphlet to raise awareness about this cause.
Example : You may include the following questions in your interview:
