WRITTEN COMPREHENSION (PLEASE, WRITE YOUR ANSWERS IN A DIFFERENT SHEET) Substance abuse touches millions of people worldwide each year, but it is unequally represented — the developing world, and marginalized groups and communities being the most vulnerable to it. Drug abuse does not necessarily correlate with how wealthy or poor one is. Of course, wealthier individuals can "afford" to buy more drugs than someone living in poverty who might have to use less expensive substances, as is the case of those sniffing glue. But after all, the aim of using drugs is to alter one’s physical and mental state, so different circumstances lead people from different environments to the same end — substance abuse. Somehow, this is a problem that affects us all differently but that brings the same consequences of harm, isolation from the community, and even death. However, no matter how tragic the stories of substance abuse are, there is always an inspiring story to be told. David Parnell began using drugs, marijuana initially, at the young age of 13. He quickly moved on to “harder” drugs such as methamphetamine. For 23 years, drugs were the focus of his life. After years of misery, he attempted to kill himself but missed the shot, which left his face severely disfigured. After this incident, he promised to change his life. At present, David takes his story on the road, traveling around North America and speaking to youth about the dangers of substance abuse. He brings hope to those who are trapped in the cycle of drug use and shows the dangers of drug abuse to those who haven’ t yet explored it. 1. CHOOSE AND WRITE THE CORRECT OPTION (A, B, C or D).
