1. There are not many medical staff left in the country.
2. People from the area threatened to kill Dr Stokes.
3. The rebels seem to be winning the war.

There is still a huge need for medical care in this war-torn nation, but unfortunately there are few if any doctors and nurses left in most areas to provide it. This is because they have been made a target by rebel troops, and even the most battle-hardened charities are unwilling to risk personnel. Dr Liam Stokes told this reporter that he was personally warned by locals that his life would be in danger if the rebel push succeeded in its aim of capturing the town. He took their words very seriously, evacuating with his staff of five and a mobile clinic all the way to the border. He has set up now in the growing refugee camp. Families displaced by the fierce fighting between government and rebel forces have been flocking there over the past three months of this continuing conflict.

The Modern-day Slave Fighter

Close your eyes and imagine what slavery looks like. You see a time in the past with hordes of people shackled together, dirty and dressed in rags, right? But could you imagine that the person serving you in a restaurant or begging on the street could in fact be a victim of modern-day slavery? Two hundred years after English Member of Parliament, William Wilberforce, campaigned to end slavery, an estimated 27 million people are still trapped in its modern-day form. Victims are forced into sweatshops, agriculture, construction or to be street beggars for little or no pay. Shockingly, this is now the fastest-growing criminal activity in the world.

Given Kachepa, a boy born in a small poverty-stricken village in Zambia, found himself a victim of one of the most widespread forms of this evil trade, illegal forced labour. Orphaned at the age of nine, he joined a local singing group where he met Keith Grimes. Grimes set up auditions to form a boys’ choir to tour the USA. He promised his recruits an American education and salary and money for the boys’ village. When Grimes offered Given a place in the choir, he eagerly accepted. But after arriving in the USA, Grimes forced the choir boys to perform between four to seven hour-long concerts every day, often without any food or rest. When they complained, Grimes threatened to send them back to Zambia in disgrace. There was no question of escaping as Grimes kept their passports. After a year, Grimes passed away but his equally brutal daughter took over the choir. By then, the boys had begun to resist instructions. As a result, Grimes’ daughter called the US immigration office to deport them. The officers arrived but after questioning the boys, what they heard horrified them. Eventually, Given and the boys found good foster homes in the USA or returned to Zambia. As for Given, he attended university in Texas and now gives speeches at antislavery events and advises other trafficking victims.

Although Given’s story eventually had a happy ending, he is one of only a few lucky ones. The crime of human trafficking thrives on deception, corruption and secrecy. A trafficker may offer to smuggle someone into a country for a job such as a waitress or a nanny, and then force the unsuspecting victim to endure crazy work hours with little or no pay, and even physical brutality. Offenders are very good at controlling victims by threatening to hurt their family if they do not comply. There is a glimmer of hope, though. Charities such as Anti-Slavery International are fighting human trafficking and helping survivors. Something we can all do is be alert to suspicious situations. Trafficking clues include: poor living conditions, not being allowed to speak to a person alone and employers holding identity documents. If you notice any telltale signs then contact your local police immediately. This is a very 21st century crime. One person cannot fight it; it requires all of us to come together and battle for justice.

A student exchange is a great way for young people to learn about foreign countries. A student from France, for example, will stay for a week or two with a British student. They will even go to the British student’s school and follow lessons there. Then, the British student gets the chance to visit the French student’s home in France.

Вам нужно прочитать текст вслух. У вас есть 1,5 минуты, чтобы молча прочитать текст, а затем подготовиться прочитать его вслух. Помните, что на чтение вслух у вас будет не более 2 минут.

When students visit other countries, they are often surprised by what they find. They expect the big things to be different. For example, they think the people will be very different from the people in their country. They imagine the way of life will be completely foreign to them. What they often find is that the big things are similar, if not the same. People are people, wherever they are from. Everyone gets up in the morning, eats and goes off to work or school. At the weekends, families go out somewhere together. It is the little things that are strange. For example, they might buy milk in a bakery in their country, but they don’t find it there in the country they are visiting.
