[07:35.08]Carl has just returned from a trip to Egypt.
[07:38.32]As part of a team that helps protect the earth's water sources,
[07:43.05]he worked on a project to solve the serious problem.
[07:46.89]Listen to the interview on the tape and answer the questions below.
[07:51.09]Part One
[07:52.84]A:Can you tell me about the project you worked on in Egypt?
[07:56.81]B:Egypt has developed a large program to clean up and protect its water.
[08:02.27]One of the projects is to help small farmers
[08:06.43]build small channels to make sure that the water supplied by the government
[08:11.89]can be used in the best way possible.
[08:14.94]A:So,what was the problem?
[08:18.18]It was often difficult for farmers to keep the channels clean and in good order.
[08:24.66]The channels were used as rubbish bins
[08:28.29]and too many plants grew where the water should flow.
[08:32.44]A:How did you solve the problem?
[08:35.37]At first,we thought that the farmers simply didn't understand the situation,
[08:41.72] and that we could solve the problem by educating them.
[08:45.37]But just make sure we interviewed some farmers and observed what they were doing.
[08:51.44]A:What did you do to learn more about the farmers and their work?
[08:56.58]B:Well,we visited many farmers and their families,
[09:01.54]We also formed small discussion groups
[09:05.20]in which we talked about the problem and what could be done about it.
[09:09.64]A:What do the farmers think and do?
[09:12.52]B:We found that the farmers did know about the problem,
[09:17.17]and had paid a company to clean the channels.
[09:20.64]But they didn't do it often enough.
[09:23.70]Part two
[09:25.37]A:Why didn't the farmers clean the channels often enough?
[09:29.73]B:They thought that the government was responsible for the channels.
[09:34.88]And they only clean them up when there was too much rubbish.
[09:39.55]They felt that this was unfair and didn't believe what the government said.
