By now, we are fully accustomed to the false public proclamations of politicians themselves. But voters lie, too. Consider an election between a black candidate and a white candidate. Might white voters lie to pollsters, claiming they will vote for the black candidate in order to appear more color-blind than they actually are? Apparently so. In New York City's 1989 mayoral race between David Dinkins (a black candidate) and Rudolph Giuliani (who is white), Dinkins won by only a few points.

People often become more effective leaders.

① leadership is not a natural gift

Situated 600km east of the Caspian, the Aral Sea was the world’s fourth largest lake. Surrounding areas were irrigated with a modest amount of water from the rivers flowing into the lake. From around 1960 the water withdrawals increased to satisfy the requirements of great cotton growing projects in central Asia. (A) , the lake lost much of its volume and salt density in the water reached oceanic values. The worst aspect was that a large part of the salt sediments at the lake bottom was exposed. The fisheries ceased, and even drinking water became affected, with serious consequences for the health of the population in a large area. (B) , recent attempts to undo the damage by adding water to the lake appear to have had some success.

② For example …… On the other hand

③ As a result …… Fortunately
