Полное описание: Worksheet English Grade 10 Term 1: Culture corner: Hurricane Katrina
Topic: Culture corner: Hurricane Katrina
In this lesson, we will explore the historical impact of Hurricane Katrina and develop skills in analyzing text structures and professional disaster management.
TASK 1. Working with a text
Read the summary of Hurricane Katrina and identify the pattern of development used in the text. Choose from: Chronological, Problem-Solution, or Cause-Effect.
"Hurricane Katrina began as a tropical depression over the Bahamas. As it moved into the Gulf of Mexico, it intensified into a Category 5 storm. The storm made landfall on August 29, 2005, causing the levee system in New Orleans to fail. Consequently, 80% of the city was flooded. To prevent such devastation in the future, engineers have since implemented a massive multi-billion dollar flood protection system, including stronger floodwalls and improved pumping stations."
TASK 2. Classification
Sort the following impacts of Hurricane Katrina into the correct categories (Economic, Social, or Environmental).
1) Levee failure | 2) Loss of housing | 3) Insurance industry collapse | 4) Wetland destruction | 5) Displacement of residents | 6) Tourism revenue loss
