Plastic waste — Texte à trous

Je vous donne un autre texte à trous à remplir.

L’exercice est légèrement plus compliqué cette fois puisque je vous demande de trouver des bouts de phrase plus longs.

La vidéo (Thousands of golf balls found off California Coast) est toujours disponible ici :

P.S. Si vous faites l’exercice à la main sur une feuille à part, ce n’est pas la peine de recopier l’intégralité du texte. Écrivez seulement les mots manquants.

SCRIPT:

TV HOST:

Take a look at this picture taken in what is supposed to be protected water.

That's a California sea otter, an endangered species.

And it's not holding a clam or a mussel. It's a golf ball and it’s a serious issue.

As Alex picked them up, she wondered "just how many golf balls are there?"

ALEX WEBER:

And so the more we researched, the more we discovered that it's a completely foreign topic.

No one's ever looked at golf balls into the ocean.

MATTHEW SAVOCA:

She sent me an email saying that she had read some of the papers, scientific articles that came out of my PhD work.

REPORTER:

Alex teamed up with Stanford marine station researcher, Matthew Savoca, to determine just how big the problem is.

MATTHEW SAVOCA:

(It's so rubbery.)

I said "you know, why don't we put together a report and try and publish a scientific article of your own that actually states the scope of the problem, the intensity, and what we can do about the problem."
