Reading

12 Read the text. Then tick ( ) the sentences T (true) or F (false) according to the text:

If you open your cupboard, you’ll probably find at least ten T-shirts! But who invented the T-shirt? We don’t really know. In 1913, this simple white shirt with short sleeves was part of the American soldiers’ uniform. During World War II, 12 million American soldiers wore these shirts under their uniforms. When they returned home from the war, men continued wearing their T-shirts around the house because they were very comfortable. But people thought the T-shirt was too casual to wear outside the house.

Then, in the 1950s, some young film and rock stars like Marlon Brando and Elvis Presley started wearing T-shirts in public places. Most adults were horrified, but their young fans were thrilled. They loved the idea of wearing T-shirts outside the home, especially because it upset their parents!

By the 1960s and 1970s, more people were wearing them, but the T-shirt was changing. They weren’t white any more – they were colourful. Later, T-shirts had messages on them. Sometimes, the messages expressed a serious opinion and sometimes, they were funny. T-shirts were developing a personality!

Today, people of all ages wear T-shirts. You can buy cheap ones in the markets or you can find expensive T-shirts created by fashion designers. They can be elegant or casual. People wear them with jeans or suits, long skirts or miniskirts. Fashions change, but T-shirts are here to stay.

Reading

THE LONELY PLANET TRAVELLERIn 1972, Maureen and Tony Wheeler travelled across Asia. It wasn’t easy. They didn’t have a lot of money, they drove an old car, but they had a sense of adventure. When they returned, they wrote a book about their travel experiences. The book was completed in 1973 and it was a huge success. The Wheelers realised that many other people with only a small amount of money wanted to travel around the world, and they needed guidebooks to make it easier for them to do it. This is how the Lonely Planet guidebook series began.

Since those early days, Lonely Planet guidebooks have become the most popular travel guides in the world. Today, there are over 500 different Lonely Planet travel guides in eight different languages. Maureen and Tony have got hundreds of travel writers.

Lonely Planet guidebooks used to be for young travellers without money, but things have changed in the last 30 years. Today, the Lonely Planet company has got photography books, food guides, a monthly magazine and a popular website for travellers.

Some people are critical of the guidebooks. They feel that Lonely Planet guides are destroying many beautiful places in the world. They say that if a place is written about in a Lonely Planet guidebook, many travellers will probably go there. As a result, quiet and beautiful places do not stay quiet and beautiful.

Although the Lonely Planet guidebooks have caused certain places to change, the company is also trying to make a positive difference to the world. It donates 5% of its profits to organisations in poor countries. No one can be critical of that!

a) How did the Wheelers’ first guidebook help travellers?

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

b) Why do hundreds of travel writers work for the Wheelers?

HAVE A JOURNEY: hacer un viaje

TO TRAVEL ON A TRAIN: viajar en tren

Nunca he hecho un viaje como el que hice en la India. Estaba viajando en el tren hacia la ciudad de Mumbai. Junto a mí estaba un grupo de mujeres en saris, un tipo de vestido hindú. Eran de preciosos colores brillantes. Durante el viaje, un niño pequeño empezó a hablar conmigo. Me habló de sus dos comidas favoritas: kebabs de ternera y el helado de chocolate de McDonalds. ¡Qué divertido! Lo sentí cuando llegamos a la estación.

He estado en trenes antes. Mi hermano y yo solíamos viajar en tren todos los días. Pero en Londres todos se sientan y no hablan. Viajar en tren en la India es mucho más divertido.

THE MOUNT ST HELENS DISASTERMount St Helens is a volcano in the northwest of the USA. Until 1980, the countryside around the mountain had magnificent forests and lakes, which were home to many animals and fish. Thousands of visitors came to Mount St Helens to enjoy its natural beauty. All that changed on 18th May, 1980. When the side of the mountain collapsed, Mount St Helens erupted with the energy of a nuclear explosion.

The eruption did not come as a surprise to the experts. In 1980, there were many events which indicated something terrible was going to happen. On 15th March, there was an earthquake under the mountain. A week later, an eruption occurred, and a gigantic crater opened on the top of the mountain. From then until May, there were more earthquakes and more eruptions. The situation was so dangerous that the authorities warned people to stay away from the region near the volcano.

Fifty-seven people died on 18th May and hundreds of people became homeless. Tragically, many of them were in areas that were considered safe!

Forests burned to the ground within minutes, and more than 7,000 bears, deer and other animals were killed. Millions of fish also died, but many frogs survived! The beautiful mountain region now resembled the moon – it was all grey stone.

More than 30 years have passed since that terrible day, and nature is slowly returning to Mount St Helens. Visitors can see some trees and other plants and deer. And what will happen in the future? By the year 2200, the region will again have beautiful forests filled with all kinds of animals, unless there is another terrible eruption.

T Fa) 1980 was the year …………………… there was a nuclear explosion

on Mount St Helens. …………

b) There were hundreds of people …………………… were left without a home. …………

c) All the people …………………… died were in dangerous areas. …………

d) Today, Mount St Helens is a place …………………… there aren’t any animals. …………

THE PERFECT CRIME?DB Cooper hijacked an aeroplane in the United States on 24th November, 1971. He received $200,000 in ransom money and parachuted from the plane. He was never arrested. In fact, he was never found, and neither was most of the money. The FBI continued to investigate the incident for many years. They investigated more than a thousand suspects. In the end, they decided that Cooper hadn’t survived the jump, but many people believe that Cooper managed to escape. They would like to know what happened to him.

Cooper boarded the aeroplane in Seattle. Witnesses said that he didn’t look suspicious in any way. After the plane had taken off, he handed a note to a flight attendant. The note said: “I have a bomb.” It also demanded $200,000 in cash and some parachutes.

The pilot didn’t take any chances. He quickly landed at Seattle International Airport, where Cooper was given $200,000 and the parachutes that he had asked for. Cooper then ordered the flight crew to take the plane back into the air. Once the plane was back in the air, Cooper attached something to his body. He ran to the door of the plane, opened it and jumped out. He was never seen again.

At the time Cooper jumped, the plane was flying through a heavy rainstorm and it was very difficult to see anything. That is why the jets that were instructed to follow the plane didn’t notice him when he jumped. Although the FBI carefully searched the area, no trace of Cooper or his parachute was ever found. Did he die or did he commit the perfect crime and escape? It seems we will never know.

a) What does the FBI think happened to Cooper?

.....................................................................................................................................................

b) Why did the pilot quickly land the aeroplane?

.....................................................................................................................................................

c) How did the weather help Cooper?

.....................................................................................................................................................

11 Complete the sentences according to the information in the text. Use the Past Perfect Simple:a) Cooper didn’t give the ransom note to the flight attendant until .................................................

Reading

10 Read the text and underline a First and Second Conditional sentence:

THE FIRST MODERN TIME CAPSULEWhat would you expect to see if you found a time capsule from thousands of years ago? Well, at the Ogelthorpe University in Georgia, USA there is a room that was locked more than 70 years ago and it is intended to stay locked for the next 6,000 years. The room is filled with objects that are meant to portray modern civilisation.

This project was the idea of Dr Thornwell Jacobs. He was a teacher of ancient history and it disturbed him that there was not a lot of information about how people lived in ancient times. He decided to preserve modern civilisation because he wanted to make it easy for the historians of the future to understand life in the early 20th century. So, he decided to store items which represent modern civilisation.

Jacobs and his students included famous books, such as the Bible and the Koran, in the time capsule. They also collected photographs, films and voice recordings of world political leaders. In addition, they collected items from daily life, including a sewing machine, an early television and a telephone.

Jacobs was very worried that someone would open the room, so he put a sign over the locked door. The sign requests that nobody open the room until the year 8113. However, if the time capsule remains locked for the next 6,000 years, how useful will it be when it’s finally opened? It’s possible that the items in the room won’t survive for such a long time. What’s more, we won’t know if the people in the future will be able to identify the objects, and understand what they were used for. However, if people do make sense of them, they will certainly learn a lot about life in the 20th century.

11 Answer the questions:

a) Why did Dr Jacobs create the time capsule?

.....................................................................................................................................................b) Why are the Bible and the Koran mentioned?

.....................................................................................................................................................c) How did Dr Jacobs try to make sure that the room would remain locked for 6,000

years?

.....................................................................................................................................................d) What are some problems of the time capsule?

.....................................................................................................................................................

12 Complete the sentences according to the text. Use conditionals in your answers:

a) If someone opened the time capsule, .........................................................................................

b) Dr Jacobs wouldn’t have been disturbed if .................................................................................

................................................................................................................................................... .

BEAUTIFUL LANDSCAPES – MORE THAN JUST A PAINTINGWhen most people look at a painting of a sunset, they see a beautiful work of art. When Professor Christos Zerefos looks at a painting of a sunset, he sees valuable scientific evidence. He believes that these paintings contain important information about the effect of volcanoes on the climate.

Scientists know that after a volcanic eruption, sunsets are very red. This is caused from the dust and ash that is sent into the sky. Volcanoes also lower the temperature of the Earth.

Professor Zerefos and his team decided to study paintings of sunsets before and after volcanic eruptions. They wanted to use the paintings to measure how the volcanoes had affected the climate in the past.

The team studied 554 watercolours and oils of sunsets that were painted between 1500 and 1900. The scientists used a computer to calculate the amount of red in each picture. They found that the sunsets that were painted after a volcanic eruption were bright red.

Many scientists are not convinced by this theory. According to them, it is impossible to make scientific conclusions based on art that was painted so long ago, because it is possible that the colours have changed since they were originally painted. What is more, artists often try to make something look very impressive when they paint. As a result, they may not always paint an accurate picture of nature.

Professor Zerefos disagrees. He is certain that artists accurately copy the actual colours of the sunsets they see. He is now studying paintings that were painted in the 20th century.

So the next time you look at a painting of a beautiful sunset, examine the colours more carefully.

a) Why did Professor Zerefos decide to study paintings of sunsets?

.....................................................................................................................................................b) Why are sunsets very red after a volcanic eruption?

.....................................................................................................................................................c) Why do some scientists disagree with this study?

Hi, everybody!

I got back from Kenya this morning. I can’t stop thinking about my trip, and I want to tell you about it.

We saw rhinoceroses, elephants, leopards, zebras and giraffes in the wild. Every night, we slept in tents, and we heard lions and hyenas all night long. I’ve never had such an exciting experience!

I must go back there again one day, so I’m saving money for another trip. Maybe I’ll volunteer at an animal reserve.

Reading

8 Read the text and decide if the following statements are T (true) or F (false). Then find evidence in the text to support your answers:

A TOUGH DOGIn November 2009, Jan and Dave Griffith decided to take their dog, Sophie, on a sailing trip off the coast of Queensland, Australia. They weren’t watching Sophie, and suddenly she was gone. She had fallen into the water. They began to search the area but there was no sign of the dog. “We didn’t find her because it was such a grey day,” said Mrs Griffith.

The Griffiths were sure that Sophie had drowned. They were very upset and decided to return home without their dog. But four months later, they received some good news. Sophie had not drowned. She was alive.

After she had fallen off the ship, Sophie continued to swim. She swam about 10 kilometres through a rough sea. She arrived at a small island where she survived for more than four months by killing baby goats and other animals.

The people who were living on the island saw a dog running around, and thought that it must be a wild dog. When they saw that there were many dead goats on the island, they called animal rescue workers to come and investigate.

When the Griffiths heard that the animal rescue workers had caught a dog on an island, they wondered if it could be Sophie. As soon as Sophie saw the Griffiths, she immediately recognised them.

“We called her name and she got really excited. She began to bark and banged on the cage. They opened the cage and she ran over to us. It was wonderful!” Mrs Griffith said.

Sophie’s story really is extraordinary and she is very lucky to be alive.

“There are a lot of dangerous animals in the sea,” said a local fisherman. “It’s amazing that they didn’t attack Sophie.”

T Fa) The Griffiths didn’t see Sophie fall off the boat. ……

…….....................................................................................................................

b) The Griffiths always believed that Sophie was alive. …………

.....................................................................................................................c) People on the island gave Sophie food. ……

…….....................................................................................................................

d) Sophie remembered the Griffiths. …………

CLIMB THOSE STAIRS!According to fitness experts, climbing stairs is a good way to work out, because you don’t need to climb for a long time to see positive results. At the gym, step machines are very popular, but in many buildings where people work and live, the stairs are not used. Instead, people use lifts to move from one floor to the next.

According to researchers, people don’t use the stairs in buildings because they are often not convenient. First of all, stairs are often in areas that are hard to find. In addition, the lighting is not bright and there is no air conditioning there. Most importantly, people generally think of stairs as a way to leave a building when there is a fire, because that is what people are supposed to do. Not surprisingly, the stairs are designed for this possibility. Stairs are usually found behind very heavy doors, which people must shut behind them during a fire. The stairs are also not covered with carpets, so that a fire will not spread quickly.

The researchers believe that designers need to design stairs in a way that will motivate people to use them but still be safe during emergencies. They also recommend that employers begin to make improvements to stairs in older buildings. They can add fireproof carpets to the stairs, paint walls in lovely colours, put up artwork and even play music in and around the stairs. In this way, people will be more likely to use the stairs.

Most buildings where people live and work haven’t got a gym, but using the stairs is a cheap and simple way that could help people to get in shape in the place where they spend a lot of their time.
