Passage Five

Some years ago industries had more freedom than they have now,and theyDid not need tobe as careful as they must today.TheyDid not need to worry a lot about the safety of the newproducts that theyDeveloped.TheyDid not have to pay much attention to the health and safetyof the people who worked for them.Often new products wereDangerous for the people who usedthem;often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.

Of course sometimes there were realDisasters which attracted the attention of governmentsand which showed need for changes.Also scientists who wereDoing research into the health ofworkers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore.At such times,there were inquiries into the causes of theDisaster or the problems.New safety rules were oftenintroduced as a resuIt of these inquiries;however,the new rule;came too late to protect thepeople whoDied or who became seriously ill.

Today many governments have specialDepartments which protect customers and workers.In the U.S.,for example,there is aDepartment which tests new airplanes and gives warningsabout possible problems.It also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow.AnotherDe—partment controls the foods andDrugs that companiessell.A thirdDepartment looks at theplaces where people work,and then reports any companies that are breaking laws which protectthe health and safety of workers.Of course,new governmentDepartments and new laws cannotprevent every accident or illness,but they are having some good results.Our work places aresafer and cleaner than before.The planes and cars which we use for travel are better.Producersare thinking more about the safety and health of the people who buy and use their products

Passage Three

It is 2 a.m.You took too long over Dinner,the coast is still a couple of hundred kilometersaway and it is essential to get that early morning ferry.And your car radiator pipe has split.Attimes like that,theDocuments making up your insurance kit lying in the front of your ear seemuseless.The nearest phone was passed three kilometers back,and it would be reasonable to ex.pect someDelay in getting breakdown assistance when you have finally phoned through.

If on the other hand,youve got a spare in the car,five minuteswork should 8ee you on your wayagain.The majority of breakdownsDo involve minor and easily changed parts.A few basic tools and theright mix of spales are well worth the space they take up.But to sort out which ones are most likely tobe needed,and to buy them,咖be expensive.

That is why the motoring organizations have come up with rental kits.For about 50 pence aday(slightly more to non-members)they will supply a boxed range of spares for a given car.     Onreturning the kit the motorist pays for any that are used,plus a small fee for repacking.Depositsare about£20.

It is much better,however,to reduce the risk of breakdowns by seeing that your car is prop—erly serviced before setting out.Particularly whenDriving at high speed over longDistances in hotweather.

Finally,it makes sense to purchase a safety triangle and an emergency plastic windscreen before leaving.Make sure all your fellow travellers know where yourDocuments are;give one aspare set of keys,and slip into the back of your wallet a large banknote for the emergencies where a credit card won’tDo.
