4.How do business negotiations contribute to successful commercial
exchanges?
5. What are the factors generaling damage to environment?
Drastic warming and sea level rise has been associated primarily with
the developed countries ‘ heavy use of fossil fuels whose burning
releases carbon dioxide , a greenhouse gas which spreads quite evenly in
the global atmosphere. A second truly global environmental concern is
the depletion of the stratospheric ozone layer, traceable to the
unintended lofting of a class of chemicals used primarily for
refrigeration, and also for fire retardation, aerosol propulsion, and
cleaning. A third issue of global extent is the loss of diversity of
plant and animal species, with particular emphasis on depletion in
tropical forests and coastal marine regions where diversity is
particularly rich. Biodiversity in coastal marine regions remains under
great pressure as the result of increased population and development,
associated changes in water quality, increased marine debris and
pollution, and destruction of habitat, including mangrove forests, sea
grasses, and coral reefs. Global forest cover, particulary in tropical
regions has been altered by human action , agriculture , buidings and
roads . The precipitation on forests and lakes of acid-producing
residues--mainly in the form of industrially-released sulfur dioxide
(SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx)-- SO2 emissions come primarily from
electric power plants . NOx emissions, from automobiles as well as power
plants, remain steady with some annual fluctuations. Emission,
transport, and deposition of acid-producing emissions occur elsewhere,
especially where fossil fuels are heavily used, although again, limited
data weaken assessments of the problem. Another issue with regional (as
well as international and local) implications is the storage and
disposal of radioactive wastes: both from nuclear reactors making
electricity and the production of military weapons.
In developing countries , many of the largest cities suffer acute air
pollution problems because of the ever-increasing number of motor
vehicles .Another problem of intense local concern is the disposal of
trash, garbage, and industrial wastes. In many areas the limited
capacity of landfills has led to rising costs for waste disposal and to
exportation of wastes to more distant locations, sometimes in other
nations. Inland water bodies such as the Aral Sea in Central Asia,
ground waters, and many rivers in both developing and industrialized
regions have experienced serious and continuing problems as a result of
combinations of imprudent irrigation; non-point-source pollution such as
urban runoff, fertilizer and pesticide use; and contamination from both
active and inactive industrial sites. Some estuaries and regional seas
now also manifest incipient eutrophication: a reduction of dissolved
oxygen, caused by an increase in deposited mineral and organic
nutrients, such as those found in fertilizers.

IV.Write about the procedures for a formal meeting.
It is often pointed out that some meetings are more formal than others.
The distinction is all important as choosing both appropiate means of
expression and some particular line of behaviour is dependent on it.
The degree of formality depends on the procedural characteristics of a
meeting which determine the type of interaction , the style of
turn-taking in particular. Various features of a language, forms of
address to stimulate the participants’ contribution in the course of a
meeting, the choice of formulaic language and the corresponding prosodic
contours are all the result of the chosen style of a meeting.
