Read: "When floods struck the valley last winter, the poorest districts bore the brunt of the damage. The council's emergency plan, critics pointed out, contained a glaring omission: it made no mention of residents without cars. Officials at first flatly refused to comment, but after coming under fire in the local press, they promised a full review." Officials immediately accepted the criticism and apologised.

Ответ: Верно - Вопрос для разговора
Describe a controversy in your town, workplace or country. Use at least four collocations from the set.
Пример ответа: The plan to build a shopping centre on the old park has come under fire from local residents, who were utterly devastated to lose the last green space in the area. The developers, who clearly have a vested interest, vehemently deny that the park was ever much used. To my mind, the council has only paid lip service to public opinion, and striking a balance between growth and quality of life now looks like a daunting task.
