LAKE DISTRICT WATER PLAN SCRUTINISED
A public inquiry opened yesterday into plans to pump extra water from the Lake District National Park to
refill reservoirs drained by drought. United Utilities has submitted its proposals to take water from two lakes,
Windermere and Ullswater, to public scrutiny because of concerns about the potential damage to wildlife.
Anglers are concerned that spawning sites for salmon and trout could dry out if water is drained from the
rivers that flow from the lakes. But the utilities company insists that removing and treating the extra water will not
hurt local flora and fauna. The hearing, headed by the government inspector, Stuart Nixon, is being held in the
Cumbrian town of Windermere and will last for two days. A final decision is expected to be taken later this month
by Margaret Beckett, the Environment Secretary.
United Utilities insists that the drought orders are necessary to prevent the further depletion of water from two
of its reservoirs in the Lake District, Haweswater and Thirlmere. Because of the unusually dry summer this year,
Haweswater has only 53 per cent of its capacity compared with 68 percent at the same time last year. Thirlmere
has just 47 percent, whereas last year it had 79 percent.
If United Utilities is given the go-ahead, it would be able to take extra water from the Windermere and
Ullswater rivers – Leven and Eamont respectively – this winter, rather than having to take emergency measures
next year. Water from Ullswater would be piped into Haweswater reservoir; water from Windermere would enter
the local supply, and prevent further depletion of Thirlmere. Water supplies would reach two million people in
Manchester, Lancashire, south Cumbria and parts of Cheshire.
Cumbria Wildlife Trust said taking extra water could pose problems for wildlife if not properly managed. But
a spokesman said it was not opposing United Utilities' plans because it was better for water to be drained in the
wet winter months rather than in the summer. ‘If they don’t have to do it now, they will have to do it in April,’ the
spokesman said.
Dickon Knight, the agent for the landowner Holker Estates, said the proposed minimum flows on the river
Leven would harm efforts to protect salmon stocks. Alistair Maltby, the manager of the Eden Rivers Trust, said
taking water from the rivers during the winter was the best approach but urged United Utilities to mend leaks in its
pipes in the long run. Gary Dixon, customer service manager at United Utilities, said, ‘We can’t predict what
supplies will be like over the winter. Normally this is when our reservoirs would refill but if the low rainfall
continues we need to start planning ahead for next summer. Taking action now will have a lower impact on the
river environment than during the spring.’
The company said the deluge of rain in recent weeks was helping to top up the reservoirs. John Carberry, a
spokesman, said, ‘There is no crisis and no panic, but we are looking ahead for next year. There is a potential
impact on the environment which is why we are seeking permission to do what we want to do.’ The Environment
Agency said it would work with the utility company to ensure any damage to fish stocks was kept to a minimum.

8. (air) pollution

9. block light

10. education
A. After hours of driving south in the pitch-black darkness of the Nevada desert, a dome of hazy gold suddenly
appears on the horizon. Soon, a road sign confirms the obvious: Las Vegas 30 miles = Sau nhiều giờ lái xe về phía
nam trong màn đêm tối đen như mực của sa mạc Nevada, một vùng sáng ánh vàng lấp lánh bỗng hiện ra nơi chân
trời. Chẳng bao lâu sau, một tấm biển chỉ đường xác nhận lại sự thật quá rõ ràng: Las Vegas chỉ còn cách đó 30
dặm. Looking skyward, you notice that the Big Dipper is harder to find than it was an hour ago.
=> ix. Approaching the city
B. Light pollution—the artificial light that illuminates more than its intended target area—has become a problem
of increasing concern across the country over the past 15 years= Ô nhiễm ánh sáng — ánh sáng nhân tạo chiếu
sáng một vùng rộng lớn hơn dự định – đã trở thành một vấn đề ngày càng khiến nhiều người lo ngại trong vòng
15 năm qua. Ở vùng ngoại ô, nơi các bãi đỗ xe thuộc các cửa hàng mua sắm luôn được thắp sáng chói chang như
một tiêu chuẩn, chỉ có thể nhìn thấy 200 trong số 2.500 ngôi sao thuộc dải Ngân Hà trong một đêm trời trong . In
the suburbs, where over-lit shopping mall parking lots are the norm, only 200 of the Milky Way’s 2,500 stars are
visible on a clear night. Even fewer can be seen from large cities. In almost every town, big and small, street lights
beam just as much light up and out as they do down, illuminating much more than just the street. Almost 50
percent of the light emanating from street lamps misses its intended target, and billboards, shopping centres,
private homes and skyscrapers are similarly over-illuminated.= Những ngọn đèn đường tỏa ra ánh sáng hắt lên cả
phía trên và phía dưới, chiếu sáng không chỉ đường phố. Gần 50 phần trăm ánh sáng phát ra từ đèn đường không
chiếu sáng khu vực mục tiêu ban đầu của chúng, và các biển hiệu, các trung tâm mua sắm, nhà riêng và những
tòa nhà chọc trời cũng sử dụng đèn chiếu sáng quá mức giống nhau.
=> viii. More light than is necessary
=> Keywords: Light pollution, artificial light, over illuminated

Keyword Location: Paragraph B, lines 1, 3

Explanation: The excessive use of artificial lights is increasing every year in the suburbs and cities. Light
pollution is a bigger menace in the cities, where street lights are illuminating more spaces than intended. A similar
sort of light that is effused from billboards, high rises, and shopping malls is contributing to the problem.

C. America has become so bright that in a satellite image of the United States at night, the outline of the country is
visible from its lights alone. The major cities are all there, in bright clusters: New York, Boston, Miami, Houston,
Los Angeles, Seattle, Chicago, and, of course, Las Vegas= Nước Mỹ đã được thắp sáng nhiều đến nỗi chỉ cần
nhìn vào một bức ảnh vệ tinh chụp vào ban đêm, có thể thấy rõ biên giới quốc gia nhờ vào ánh đèn. Những thành
phố lớn cũng đều có thể dễ dàng được nhìn thấy, trong những cụm sáng lớn: New York, Boston, Miami, Houston,
Los Angeles, Seattle, Chicago, và dĩ nhiên, Las Vegas.. Mark Adams, superintendent of the McDonald
Observatory in west Texas, says that the very fact that city lights are visible from on high is proof of their
wastefulness. “When you’re up in an airplane, all that light you see on the ground from the city is wasted. It’s
going up into the night sky. That’s why you can see it.”
=> vii. Seen from above
=> Keywords: Satellite image, the outline of the country, bright clusters

Keyword Location: Paragraph C, lines 1-2

Explanation: The lights in the main cities of the United States are so vivid that they can be viewed as glaring
clusters in satellite images. The entire silhouette of America can be distinguished just from the intense lights.
However, it is just a sign of the wasteful and mindless expenditure of light energy that is prevalent in the country.

D. But don’t we need all those lights to ensure our safety? The answer from light engineers, light pollution control
advocates and astronomers is an emphatic “no.” Elizabeth Alvarez of the International Dark Sky Association
(IDA), a non-profit organization in Tucson, Arizona, says that overly bright security lights can actually force
neighbours to close the shutters, which means that if any criminal activity does occur on the street, no one will see
it. And the old assumption that bright lights deter crime appears to have been a false one: A new Department of
Justice report concludes that there is no documented correlation between the level of lighting and the level of
crime in an area. And contrary to popular belief, more crimes occur in broad daylight than at night. = Và giả định
lỗi thời rằng đèn sáng ngăn ngừa tội phạm là một sự sai lầm: Một báo cáo mới của Sở Tư pháp kết luận không có
mối liên hệ nào được ghi nhận giữa mức độ thắp sáng và tình hình tội phạm trong một khu vực. Và trái với niềm
tin phổ biến, nhiều tội ác xảy ra ngay giữa thanh thiên bạch nhật hơn là vào ban đêm.
=>vi. A problem lights do not solve
=> Keywords: Old assumption, a false one, contrary to popular belief

Keyword Location: Paragraph D, lines 3-4

Explanation: For decades, people have believed that a luminous space is hardly probable to turn into a crime
scene and protect the people around. However, there is no sound evidence to support such claims. It is also said
that people living in such neighborhoods are prone to closing their drapes to guard their homes against obtrusive
lights, hence risking the odds of not spotting crime. Moreover, it was seen that crimes take place more during the
day than at night. Hence, lights necessarily do not solve the problem of crimes.

E. For drivers, light can actually create a safety hazard. Glaring lights can temporarily blind drivers, increasing the
likelihood of an accident= Với các tài xế, ánh sáng thực sự là một mối nguy với sự an toàn. Ánh đèn quá chói có
thể khiến tài xế không nhìn thấy gì, làm gia tăng nguy cơ xảy ra tai nạn. To help prevent such accidents, some
cities and states prohibit the use of lights that impair night-time vision. For instance, New Hampshire law forbids
the use of “any light along a highway so positioned as to blind or dazzle the vision of travellers on the adjacent
highway.”
=> iv. People at risk from bright lights
=> Keywords: Safety hazard, glaring lights, temporarily blind drivers

Keyword Location: Paragraph E, lines 1-2

Explanation: Bright lights can sometimes jeopardize lives. For example, the harsh lights from cars can result in
brief blindness in the drivers. It makes them prone to accidents, especially when driving on a highway.

F. Badly designed lighting can pose a threat to wildlife as well as people= Bố trí ánh sáng tồi có thể là mối đe dọa
cho động vật hoang dã và con người.. Newly hatched turtles in Florida move toward beach lights instead of the
more muted silver shimmer of the ocean. Migrating birds, confused by lights on skyscrapers, broadcast towers and
lighthouses, are injured, sometimes fatally, after colliding with high, lighted structures. And light pollution harms
air quality as well: Because most of the country’s power plants are still powered by fossil fuels, more light means
more air pollution.
=> iii. The environmental dangers
=> Keywords: Threat to wildlife as well as people

Keyword Location: Paragraph F, line 1

Explanation: Glaring artificial lights do not only harm people, at the same time are perilous for wildlife. Often
migratory birds are misled and injured due to brightly lit skyscrapers. It is noticed in Florida that baby turtles are
moving away from the ocean towards the beach due to bright lights. Additionally, air pollution ensues from light
pollution, since a large amount of fossil fuel is used to produce light energy.
G. So what can be done? Tucson, Arizona is taking back the night. The city has one of the best lighting ordinances
in the country, and, not coincidentally, the highest concentration of observatories in the world. Kitt Peak National
Optical Astronomy Observatory has 24 telescopes aimed skyward around the city’s perimeter, and its cadre of
astronomers needs a dark sky to work with.
H. For a while, that darkness was threatened. “We were totally losing the night sky,” Jim Singleton of Tucson’s
Lighting Committee told Tulsa, Oklahoma’s KOTV last March. Now, after retrofitting inefficient mercury lighting
with low-sodium lights that block light from “trespassing” into unwanted areas like bedroom windows, and by
doing away with some unnecessary lights altogether, the city is softly glowing rather than brightly beaming. The
same thing is happening in a handful of other states, including Texas, which just passed a light pollution bill last
summer. “Astronomers can get what they need at the same time that citizens get what they need: safety, security
and good visibility at night,” says McDonald Observatory’s Mark Adams, who provided testimony at the hearings
for the bill.
I. And in the long run, everyone benefits from reduced energy costs. Wasted energy from inefficient lighting costs
us between $1 and $2 billion a year, according to IDA. The city of San Diego, which installed new, high-
efficiency street lights after passing a light pollution law in 1985, now saves about $3 million a year in energy
costs.
J. Legislation isn’t the only answer to light pollution problems. Brian Greer, Central Ohio representative for the
Ohio Light Pollution Advisory Council, says that education is just as important, if not more so. “There are some
special situations where regulation is the only fix,” he says. “But the vast majority of bad lighting is simply the
result of not knowing any better.” Simple actions like replacing old bulbs and fixtures with more efficient and
better-designed ones can make a big difference in preserving the night sky.
