Shanty Towns
There are numerous health problems in shanty towns. Firstly, because the sites are illegal the
government does not provide piped water. As a result, drinking and bathing water are usually dirty and
this causes diseases such as dysentery, typhoid and hepatitis, as well as skin and eye diseases.
Secondly, houses are often overcrowded and have poor air circulation. This makes it easier to catch
diseases like flu, TB and diphtheria where infection enters through the throat. Thirdly, there are no drains,
sewers or rubbish collection services. The resulting pools of stagnant water and heaps of household
waste attract rats and insects, which can pass on diseases.
The government could do a lot to solve these problems. For example, they could supply clean,
piped water to individual houses or, at least, to neighborhoods. This would make drinking water safe and
reduce infections. In addition, the authorities could provide householders with building materials to
improve their conditions and educate them about the importance of ventilation. Lastly, the city council
could construct drains and provide a rubbish collection service to reduce the risk of infections spread by
rats and insects.
If the government took these steps, the result would be a safer, healthier environment. Furthermore, the
improvements would also lead to increased employment opportunities in areas such as construction,
plumbing and rubbish disposal. It is time for politicians to come to the aid of the people who elected
them

the answer is b) ''i hereby express my profound remorse together with my sincere mourning ''.

the reason being that although all of the options provided are valid the main idea of the speech by prime minister junichiro koizumi is to express his and japan's current antiwar pledge.

he states that 59 years had passed since the war, he acknowledges the 3 million japanese that lost their lives during the war and those countries who were affected by their decisions, as well as the way japan intends to develop relationships across the globe however all of this can be summarize to how japan as a whole regrets the war and its consecuences.

hope this ! i found the article on let me know if i'm using the wrong one.

awnser:

the thousand and one nights – or, as i prefer to call them in the following forpurely practical reasons: the arabian nights – as we perceive them three hundredyears after antoine galland’s epochal french adaptation bear a distinct arabicimprint. meanwhile, the commonly accepted model for their textual historyacknowledges various stages in the conceptualization and effective formation ofboth the collection’s characteristic frame story and the embedded repertoire. thevast majority of tales in the preserved manuscripts of the nights has beenintegrated into the collection during two periods of arabic influence, the so-calledbaghdad and cairo periods (gerhardt 1963: 115–374). these “arabic” stages arepreceded by an iranian version, probably dating to pre-islamic times, which in itsturn profits from both structural devices and narrative contents originating fromindian tradition. considering the eminent position that iran and iranian culturehold in the early stages of the textual history of the arabian nights, surprisinglyfew details are known concerning the collection’s relation to and its actualposition within the iranian cultural context. in the following, i will discuss linksbetween the arabian nights and iranian culture on several levels. in surveyingthese links, i will treat five major areas: (1) the iranian prototype of the nights; (2) tales of alleged persian origin; (3) persian characters within the tales; (4)persian translations of the arabian nights; and (5) the position of the arabiannights in modern iran
