Asked Mr Udoh. No one knew the answer. Mr Udoh tried another question ‘’From where do we get coal, tin, diamonds, and oil ? he asked. ‘From under the ground, replied Chidi. All minerals are under the ground and men dig mines or drill holes to reach them. ‘Correct, replied the teacher. Now from where do we get fish? Many hands shot up. ‘From rivers, lakes and the sea, they all shouted. ‘And timber?’ ‘From forests’. ‘Suppose we continue removing all these things at a fast rate than we replace them’ asked the teacher. What happens then? Once again everyone shouted out the answer. ‘There’ll be nothing left….. Everything will get used up …. No more fish in the sea….. ‘’ No more trees ….. ‘’No more oil….. Right, said Mr Udoh. Now in the past, we have only used small quantities of these things, but in the last fifty years we have been using up our resources at an alarming rate to make our lives more comfortable. At last people are realising that this can’t go on. We must replace the resources where possible as quickly as we use them up. This is called ‘’conservation’’. How, for instance, can we conserve water? ‘’by building dams, sir, ‘’said Ada, ‘’like the one on the River Nile in Egypt’. ‘’Tell me more, ‘said Mr Udoh. ‘’Egypt is a very dry land, sir continued Ada. All the people depended entirely on the annual flood for irrigation, but much of the water was wasted because it all came at once. Therefore, it was important to store the flood water so that it could be used gradually throughout the year. As a result, the Aswan Dam was built. The reservoir created by this dam extends for 200 km. It is used for irrigation and also to provide hydroelectric power. Also, it has improved fishing in that area. ‘’Well done, ‘’ said Mr Udoh. ‘’ Now in Nigeria we have a number of large dams. The biggest is Kainji Dam but there is also a dam being built on the Tige River and a small one at Gubi in Bauchi State. We shall need many more to provide water and hydro-electric power for our people.’’ consignes Item 1 : Say if these statements are true or false 1- fish and trees are not mineral resources 2- we can conserve timber by re-planting 3- dams conserve water for irrigation and hydro – electric power. 4- We are using our resources more quickly today than fifty years ago Item 2 : answer these questions on the text 1- Give a short title to this text 2- How can we conserve water? 3- In which countries were dams built ? 4- What is the importance of dams?
