4. people couldn’t afford many clothes; only the rich had lots of clothes when they were at work and when they were not at work.

5. largest lakes in the world. It contains a rich variety of animals and plants, including 1,300 rare species that do not exist anywhere else in the world. But they are being destroyed by the massive volumes of industrial wastes which pour into the lake every day. Even where law existed, the government did not have the power to enforce them.
