Arsenic compounds occur naturally in the earth's makeup. Contamination of ground water has been found in many countries, including Argentina, Chile, China, India, Mexico, Taiwan, Thailand, and even the United States. It is a global problem."
</span>
<span>The best question to ask after reading paragraph 6 is:
