path to achieve it.即意见的分歧体现在"how"这个词上。 [听力原文]<9>-<10>
The Indian government has said the campaign to end child labour must be
backed up by resources to help the affected countries make such a big
change. The declarations at the start of this conference made it
its main goal of effective elimination of child labour. But at once sharp
divisions have emerged over the best path to achieve it. Recent campaign by
trade unions in the developed world have focused on banning exports of sporting
goods, carpets and other products made with the help of child labour. But this
conference has heard warnings from development experts as well as delegates from
the Indian Subcontinent who say that kind of quick fix approach could do great
damage. In Bangladesh, thousands of poor children became still poorer, or were
driven to more dangerous work after western consumers organized a boycott of
clothing made by child workers there. Currently, there's fresh pressure led by
international trade unions to end the employment in India of thousands of
children in the diamond polishing industry. The conference will
try to draw up an agenda for action made up of three main parts: new laws, more
support for education, and social programmes against poverty. It's now clear it
will not be easy to reach a consensus.
