Well, it's just like this for the Uros people of Lake Titicaca in Peru. There are over forty 'floating' islands here. Every day they are in a different place on the lake which is 3,812 metres above sea level. These floating islands are home to about 300 people. Their surface is very soft and wet because they make the islands with totora reeds. There are small villages with three to ten families on each island. Uros homes are small reed huts with one room. There is only one bed for the whole family. There isn't any heating and it is sometimes very cold on the lake. Life on the islands is very simple. The men are fishermen on the lake. They have reed boats with amazing animal faces to go fishing. The women are at home with the children. There's one school for the children but there isn't a hospital or doctors nearby. These days, the islands are very popular with tourists. It's only a 30-minute motor-boat ride from the city of Puno to the islands. Everyone is welcome to experience this unique way of life! m t floating islands, place, home to, surface, soft, wet, totora reeds, reed huts, heating, simple, fishermen, reed boats, school, hospital, nearby, popular with tourists, experience a unique way of life 32 In my country there are a lot of lakes.

It sounds strange, but this is a normal morning at the Giraffe Manor, a hotel in Kenya, Africa. Every morning before 9 o'clock, the giraffes walk over and put their heads through the open windows to see what's for breakfast. In the wild, giraffes eat leaves and twigs, but here at the hotel they prefer a slice of toast and some orange juice. These playful creatures are like members of the family. Each one has its own name and personality. Lynne is the leader and loves treats from the guests. Arlene likes hugs while Barney is like a typical teenager - even though he's only 3. The hotel is also a conservation project. The Rothschild giraffe is a rare animal with only a few hundred left in the wild. On the 140-acre estate there are also exotic birds and antelope. __ The owners and the staff do their best to make their guests feel welcome.

Well, a school like this really exists. It's called the Flying Fruit Fly Circus School and it's in Wodonga, Australia. The students at this school study circus skills such as acrobatics, clowning, trapeze, and tightrope walking. They also study dance, theatre and music and take part in many performances and tours. Students don't spend all day flying through the air though! They have to work hard at all the normal subjects, like Maths and Science, too. There are also rules like at an ordinary school. Students have to be on time, wear a school uniform and switch their mobile phones off in class (they sometimes don't have to switch off their MP3 players, though!). Also, they don't get into the school easily. They have to do a circus skills course and then the school chooses its students. juggle, trapeze, exist, circus skills, acrobatics, tightrope walking, performance, course, performer, unique experience After leaving the circus school, some students become performers, and others don't.

When they wake up tomorrow, most Brits are probably going to eat a bowl of cereal. Poland: Polish people like a breakfast spread with a lot of choice. Fresh bread and creamy butter are essential.

It dates back to 1436. But what was it exactly and why did the Incas build it so high in the mountains? No one is really certain. Bingham found amazing things in Machu Picchu. He discovered stone buildings with thick walls, homes for the people and a beautiful palace for the emperor. There was even a huge pyramid. The city also had a tall tower, temples, storage rooms, baths, about 150 houses and a park. It had running water and water fountains. All the buildings were very strong. Even earthquakes didn’t destroy them! 3 I The Incas were clever people and they knew how to do many things. They weren’t only great builders and astronomers. They were also good farmers. They constructed terraced fields around the city and they grew potatoes, corn and cocoa. Matching headings to paragraphs The title of a paragraph gives the main idea of that paragraph.

Q Legendary Figures к :S‘H; Y и ' the magician Merlin is one of the most fascinating figures in British mythology. He was a wizard, a poet, a teacher and an advisor to kings. His story is full of mystery and magic. Today, we think of Merlin as a wise old man with a beard and a cloak who had magical powers. Ancient myths describe him as being half human; the son of a woman and a demon, and they say he could turn into a bird or cloud! In the century the Kings of Britain were fighting great battles with foreign enemies. News of Merlin's intelligence and magical abilities reached King Uther and he became the King's advisor. One day, Merlin had a vision that the King's son, Arthur, was in great danger. Merlin advised the King to send his son to live in the forest. As the young Arthur was growing up in the forest Merlin became his guardian and teacher. When Uther died, the noblemen of the country started fighting each other for the throne. To put an end to the fighting Merlin created a contest to choose the new king. He stuck the magic sword, Excalibur, into a large stone and said whoever pulled it out was the true King. All the strongest men in the land tried to free the sword but failed. Then Arthur, who was looking for a sword for a local tournament, saw the sword and lifted it out easily. He became king and made Merlin his special advisor. Even today, people wonder if Merlin was more than just a character of medieval stories. Real or not. Merlin continues to fascinate people whenever they hear his story. bi •■irt rtlKT« Listening & Reading ^ What do you know about Merlin?

The Ancient Phoenicians The ancient Phoenicians were a great civilisation that inhabited the east coast of the Mediterranean Sea. The Phoenician civilisation lasted over 1,000 years. It began about 1550 BC and ended about 300 BC. The Phoenicians were the best shipbuilders and sailors of the ancient world. For more than 400 years, they ruled the seas! They were the first people to learn how to sail using the stars at night. The Phoenicians were brilliant traders too. They sailed their ships around the Mediterranean, and sold things like wood and glass to the Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians. One special item that they traded made them very rich. It was a purple-coloured dye. Purple was the colour of royalty in ancient times. No one in the ancient world knew how to make purple clothes except the Phoenicians. Historians think the Phoenicians were the first civilisation in the world to use an alphabet. They also think that all the alphabets in the world today come from the Phoenician alphabet. The Phoenicians invented an alphabet and a writing system around 1400 BC because they wanted to communicate with their trading partners in Greece, Rome and Egypt. It consisted of only 22 letters based on sound. Once the Greeks and Romans saw the Phoenicians had an alphabet, they learnt it. They wanted to make sure the Phoenicians didn't cheat them out of money! Soon afterwards the Greeks developed their own alphabet. That consisted of 24 letters.

He was a Prussian army officer and was governor of Stettin. In the 18th century wealthy children had their own private teachers and so Catherine received a lot of her education from her French nanny Babette. She learnt French, German, History, Religion and Music. When Catherine was fifteen she went to Russia where she met and married the Grand Duke Peter in 1745. In December 1761 Peter III became Emperor of Russia and Catherine his empress. Only a few months later, she became the sole ruler of Russia, During her reign, Russia became one of the great powers of Europe. Catherine developed the arts and sciences in her country. Under her direction, St Petersburg became one of the world's greatest capitals. It was a fantastic period for theatre and music. Catherine II also improved the country's educational system.

I was so excited; it was an old-style, red, double-decker bus! It was also a number 7, my lucky number, so I jumped on board. There were only two elderly ladies travelling; one smiled at me. The bus went through a strange part of London. There were very few cars around and all the streets, houses and even the people looked old-fashioned. The bus didn’t stop anywhere. Ten minutes later we were back at the Marble Arch again. I got off the bus and went to my hotel. The receptionist gave me my room key. “Have you been anywhere nice today?’’ she asked. I told her about my tour on the number 7 bus. She looked surprised. “That’s very strange," she said, “the number 7 bus hasn’t run since 1958!"

We were the only people travelling when a beautiful woman of our age got on. She was dressed in a very old-fashioned grey suit. She wore her blonde hair in a bun and she carried a small bouquet of roses. She looked like someone from an old photograph. She was very still and lost in thought. John asked me to take some photographs because the view was amazing. I only looked out of the window for a moment, but when I turned back, the woman wasn’t there. I asked John about her.

WB4^ 109 • ' » Curricular: Science radio waves Millions of people around the world use mobile phones to keep in touch with friends and family, and there is an 80% chance that you've got a mobile phone in your pocket or bag. Have you ever wondered, though, how a mobile phone network works? A mobile phone is actually a sophisticated radio that uses radio waves to communicate, like a really good walkie-talkie. A walkie-talkie uses one channel and one frequency so only one person can talk at the same time. The mobile phone uses two frequencies, one for talking and one for listening, which means both users can talk at the same time; and it can use over 1600 channels. When your mobile phone is on, the phone communicates to what we call a base station. A base station is a special antenna which can be on the top of a building or a communications tower. There are usually hundreds of base stations in cities all over the world. Sometimes telephone companies disguise their base stations so you don't even notice them. Each base station is at the centre of an area called a cell. All calls and messages in that area go to the cell's base station where a special base station controller transmits the call. Controllers can only take a certain number of calls at the same time so if a lot of people call, some of them may not be able to get through. This doesn't happen very often though because there are antennas everywhere. Keep an eye out for them! mobile phone \ user 4 keep in touch, sophisticated, frequency, base station, antenna, cell, transmit Look at the picture.
