TEXT 1

ELECTRIC WOMAN

Has anything strange ever happened to you? For Natalie Thomason, unusual things

seem to happen almost every day. It started eight years ago when she moved into an old

cottage with her husband, Paul, and their three children. One evening, Natalie and Paul were

watching television when the screen suddenly went blank, and smoke came out of the back of

the set.

Since then, strange events have become part of their life. A week after the TV

incident, the vacuum cleaner blew up while Natalie was hoovering the floor. During the next

few days, the stereo stopped working, the alarm clock never showed the correct time, and the

new TV changed stations on its own.

Natalie soon realized that whenever she is near an electrical appliance, things go

wrong. Irons, kettles, microwave ovens, video-recorders and fridges have all stopped working

for no reason. New light bulbs have lasted for only a few hours, and the family has had five

TV sets in the last eight years.

Other unusual things have happened, too. Knives, forks and spoons have bent into

strange shapes. One evening, a picture fell off the wall and almost hit Natalie. When she

picked it up, she found that the string wasn’t broken and the nail was still in the wall.

The strangest thing of all happened one morning while Natalie was having breakfast.

When she put a bowl on the kitchen table, Becky, her daughter, suddenly jumped up because

she said that the bowl moved. ‘I didn’t believe her,’ said Natalie, ‘but when I put my hand

near the bowl again, it definitely moved. It was scary. Luckily, it hasn’t happened again since

then.’

Why have all these things happened to Natalie, and why did it all start when she and

Paul moved into the cottage? Scientist, Albert Budden, has studies several cases like

Natalie’s. He thinks that it’s all to do with electricity. He says that some people are like

batteries. They store electricity in their bodies, and this can affect things around them,

especially electrical appliances. He believes that Natalie has so much electricity in her body,

because there is a large electricity pylon near the cottage.

‘Most people think that it’s very funny,’ says Natalie, ‘but it isn’t. I get a headache

when I stand near a microwave oven.’ Natalie’s problem is expensive, too. In addition to the

five TV sets, the Thomasons have had to buy ten irons, twelve vacuum cleaners and several

video-recorders, stereos, microwaves and fridges. The old ones just stopped working.

‘Things have been a bit better recently,’ says Natalie, ‘but I don’t know if Mr

Budden is right. I think there are some things in life that we can’t explain.’

JUNGLE RUNAWAYS

They jumped 12 metres into the sea from a ship. They swam thirty kilometres through

shark-infected waters and then lived for 17 days in one of Australia’s most dangerous

jungles. The 18-year-old twins, Sarah and Joanne Ingham, should be dead, but last night

they were safe at a police station in Cairns. Their parents couldn’t believe it when they

heard the news. ‘It’s an absolute miracle,’ said their mother.

The story began in the port of Nelson in New Zealand where the girls lived. There

they met a Malaysian sailor, called Mohammed Zan. When Mohammed’s ship left Nelson on

February 17th

, the girls hid on board. Several of the sailors knew about the girls and brought

them food and clothes. They did the job very well, because it was two months before the

captain discovered them. In that time, the ship travelled to Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia and it

was on its way back to New Zealand.

However, near Singapore, the captain heard about the sailors’ secret, and the girls

and Mohammed were locked up in different parts of the ship. Then, on the night on April 19th

,

as the ship was sailing past the Australian coast, the three disappeared. When the ship was

searched the next day, three life-jackets were missing.

Sarah, Joanne and Mohammed spent 24 hours in the Coral Sea with sharks and

poisonous jellyfish before they landed at the mouth of a river in northern Queensland. Even

here they weren’t safe, as the river is home to enormous man-eating crocodiles. Somehow

they survived, and they spent the next 17 days in a country that is full of poisonous snakes and

all kinds of insects that bite and sting. They found fresh water in the rivers and they ate

shellfish and berries. ‘We’re all amazed,’ said one of the police officers. ‘We wouldn’t dare to

go walking around in that area – even with a gun. We don’t understand how they survived.’

Eventually, the three runaways were found by some local Aborigines who offered t

take them to the town of Coen in their lorry. Weak and hungry, they accepted, but before they

reached the town, they decided to run away again. They stole some food and clothes from a

local shop and disappeared into the jungle. This time, however, the police soon caught them

and took them to Cairns, 300 miles away. The girls will be flown back to New Zealand

tomorrow. They are not looking forward to going home!

THE DANCE

Every Saturday night, the factory social club organized a dance at the local sports club.

Maggie Tool always went with her best friend Anna and Anna’s boyfriend. Maggie never had

a date and didn’t get many dances, either.

One Saturday after work, Anna said as usual, ‘Be ready at seven, Mag.’

‘Thanks, but a friend is taking me tonight,’ she replied.

Anna, the best-looking girl in the factory, was curious about her best friend’s date. Most of

the boys thought Maggie was plain.

‘You’ll meet him tonight!’ said Maggie.

At 8.30 p.m., Maggie came into the hall with her date.

‘Look at him! Isn’t he handsome? I’m so pleased for Maggie,’ Anna said to her boyfriend.

‘Meet Terry O’Sullivan.’ Maggie introduced her tall, dark-haired friend.

All the girls wanted to dance with Terry and the boys suddenly became interested in Maggie.

Terry danced with Maggie and then had a dance with Dempsey Donovan’s date. Dempsey

was the leader of the sports club and the best boxer. Dempsey went up to Terry.

‘So, where are you from?’ asked Dempsey aggressively. ‘We’ve never seen you around here

before.’

‘Mind your own business,’ replied Terry.

Dempsey nodded to two men standing nearby. They took Terry to the back room of the club.

Meanwhile, Maggie was talking with a friend and she didn’t see this. Then she started to look

for Terry.

‘He’s gone to fight with Dempsey,’ a girl told her.

‘Oh no!’ Maggie ran to the back room. She was worried bout the fight. She saw Dempsey and

Terry facing each other. Maggie ran between them and caught Terry’s arm. A knife fell to the

floor.

‘Knives are banned in the sports club and so are people carrying them,’ said Dempsey. ‘Get

out!?

Two men took him out. Maggie walked up to Dempsey. She was crying.

‘He’s Italian and his real name is Tony Spinelli. I knew that before. I told him to call himself

O’Sullivan. I was tired of coming on my own and Tony was really nice. But I came here as

soon as I heard about the fight. I was frightened of problems ‘cos I know the Italians carry

knives. I guess I’ll have to leave the club now.’

‘No, Mag. I’ll take you home. And how about next Saturday night? Will you come to the

dance with me?’

SCHOOLS IN JAPAN

Japanese high school students spend 240 days a year at school – that’s forty-five days more

than in the UK. Classes are large with about 40-45 students in each class. At the end of the

school say, all students take part in o soji – they sweep the classrooms and corridors, empty

rubbish bins, clean the blackboards and pick up litter outside the school. Then, the after-

school clubs begin.

After-school clubs are very important in Japan. Popular sports clubs are baseball, football and

volleyball, as well as traditional Japanese sports like karate, judo and kendo. Kendo is the

ancient art of sword-fighting in the Samurai tradition. The players wear body protection but

nowadays the swords are not real! Students can also take up traditional activities such as

calligraphy (decorative handwriting), origami (folding paper to make shapes and figures) and

shogi (a Japanese version of chess with the squares the same colour).

When the school year begins in April, new students join a club. Clubs meet for two hours

after school each day and many continue in the school holidays. The senior students organise

the clubs and the juniors have to help them. For example, when the seniors are playing tennis,

the juniors have to watch them and collect the tennis balls and they can only play when the

seniors finish!

Over 60% of Japanese parents spend a lot of money on evening classes in private schools for

their children. These classes prepare students for entrance exams to university. Private schools

are often near railway stations to save travelling time for students.

Oh, one more thing. When tired Japanese students finally get home, they can’t waste time on

TV or computer games. They have an average of two hours of homework a day plus three

hours on Sundays!

MAKING PEOPLE AWARE

Ken Noguchi is a mountain climber. He’s climbed Mount Everest. It wasn’t the Japanese

climber’s first visit to the top of the world’s highest mountain. He’s climbed it five times, and

he’s going to do it again. He doesn’t do it for fun. He goes there to collect something –

rubbish!

Ken’s team of climbers from Japan and Nepal have collected over 500 kilograms of rubbish

and brought it down the mountain. They have collected tins, tents, sleeping bags, food,

medicine and empty oxygen bottles. Where has all this rubbish come from?

The firs people to climb Mount Everest were Sir Edmund Hillary from New Zealand and

Tenzing Norgay from Nepal (the home of Mount Everest). They reached the top in May 1953.

Since then, modern equipment has made it a lot easier, and thousands of people have climbed

the mountain. Unfortunately, they have left tonnes of rubbish there, and it doesn’t decompose

in the cold air. Now there is so much rubbish that people have called the mountain ‘the

highest rubbish dump in the world’.

Ken Noguchi wants to make people aware of the problem. He has taken some of the rubbish

to Japan and Korea and put it on display. ‘We must keep the world’s highest mountain clean,’

he said. Things are better now. All climbers must bring their own rubbish back or pay a big

fine. However, Ken thinks there is probably about 50 tonnes of old rubbish still there.

FAME

Three years ago, Liam Clarke was a successful contestant on the Desert Island reality TV

show. Millions of people watched him and the other 7 contestants as they tried to survive

on the famous island for 6 weeks.

Before he went to the island, good-looking Liam was a teacher in a school in Manchester.

He shared a flat with two friends. However ion the last three years his life has changed a

lot.

‘At first it was really exciting,’ he says. ‘I did a lot of interviews for newspapers and

celebrity magazines. Whenever I opened a newspaper, I saw my picture. People

recognized me in the street and I signed a lot of autographs. I went to a lot of parties and

had a fantastic holiday in Australia, too.

It was great. I really enjoyed all the fame and the excitement, but there were difficulties,

too. After a while, photographers started to follow me and my girlfriend everywhere. One

Sunday morning someone knocked on my door. It was quite early and I was still in bed. I

opened the door in my pyjamas and there was a photographer there. I was very angry, so I

grabbed his camera and threw it across the street. Well, he called the police and then the

newspapers were full of the story. ‘Police arrest Desert island Liam.’ It wasn’t true. The

police didn’t arrest me. They just asked some questions and I paid for a new camera.

That’s the danger when you’re famous. You lose a lot of your freedom.’

After that, things became quieter, but Liam didn’t want to go back to his life in

Manchester. He’s lived in London for two years now and has worked as a DJ for a radio

station for over a year. He’s still famous, but photographers haven’t followed him for a

long time. ‘I’ve been very lucky,’ he says. ‘And I’ve really enjoyed my success.’ What

about the future? ‘Well, my girlfriend and I are getting married in three months. I’m very

SIR BEDIVERE AND EXCALIBUR

Long, long ago there lived a famous king. His name was Arthur and he was the king of the

Britons. King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table fought many battles. Arthur’s last

battle was against his own son, Mordred, at Camlan. The armies started fighting early in the

morning and the battle lasted all day. When they finished fighting, Mordred was dead and the

King was badly wounded. Only one of Arthur’s knights survived – Sir Bedivere.

After the battle of Camlan, Sir Bedivere took the wounded king to the island of Avalon. The

island was in the middle of a lake. Arthur knew the lake well. He remembered receiving his

magic sword, Excalibur, from the Lady of the Lake when he was a young man. ‘I need to

return Excalibur to the lake,’ he said to Sir Bedivere, but he was too weak to move, so the

knight offered to take the sword. ‘Throw the sword out into the middle of the lake,’ said the

king. Sir Bedivere promised to do it.

The knight stood on the shore of the lake and looked at Excalibur. It was such a beautiful

sword. He couldn’t imagine throwing it away. He decided to keep it. On the way back to the

king, he stopped to hide the sword in the bushes. He remembered to mark the place and then

went back to the king.

‘Have you done it?’ asked King Arthur.

‘Yes, your Majesty,’ said Sir Bedivere.

The king smiled. ‘Tell me,’ he said. ‘What did you see?’

‘Nothing,’ said the knight.

The king stopped smiling. ‘You didn’t throw the sword into the lake,’ he said. ‘Go back and

do it.’

TEXT 9

TRADITIONAL COMMUNITIES

Scottish clans are group of people with the same surname as their clan chief, for example,

Macdonald or Campbell. Each clan has its own ‘tartan’ – a coloured pattern used for kilts.

Clans began in the Scottish Highlands in the Middle Ages when people accepted the

protection and authority of their local chief.

Nowadays, clan members live all over the world but annual gatherings are still held in

Scotland. For example, every year Macraes from different counties go back to Scotland. They

first visit the ‘gathering stone’ where the clan met up in the past before going into battle. After

that, they tour famous places where the clan fought the English.

The next day they attend the local highland games. All the men wear Macrae kilts and carry

banners while the Macrae band plays bagpipe music. In the evening, a banquet is held in the

magnificent castle in Eilean Donan. Finally, there is traditional Scottish dancing and singing

until late in the night.

The Maoris came from Polynesia and colonised the uninhabited islands of New Zealand over

a thousand years ago. There are now 526,000 Maoris in New Zealand which has a total

population of just over four million.

Every Maori belongs to a large family group and each group has its own community centre

with various buildings. The main building is the meeting house and is decorated in traditional

Maori style. On the roof, there is a large carved figure of an important ancestor. Community

centres are the focus of Maori culture and older Maoris pass on Maori traditions to young

people here: songs, stories, dances, carving and traditional Polynesian cooking. People of

European origin can only visit them with permission.

Weddings, christenings and funerals are held in the meeting house as well as formal

ceremonies. At these events, local elders give speeches and younger Maoris perform songs

and dances. Maori war dances, or ‘hakas’, are world famous; the New Zealand rugby team

performs one before every game. Hakas can look and sound aggressive. They were used in the

past when one tribe met another to find out if the other tribe was peaceful or was looking for a

fight!

TEXT 10

DESERT FLOWER

Waris Dirie was born in Somalia. Her name means ‘desert flower’. Her mother was quite

well-off but her father was from a poor family. After they married, her parents were on the

move all the time with their goats and camels. Life was hard but Waris had a happy

childhood. 1__________________________

When she was twelve, her father arranged for her to marry an old man in exchange for five

camels. 2__________________________________

It was such a horrible idea that she decided to run away to the capital, Mogadishu. There, she

moved from one relative to another. Finally, a kind aunt got her a job as a maid in the

Somalian Embassy in London. When the ambassador returned to Somalia, she lost her job.

Suddenly, she was in real trouble. Waris was on her own and out of work in a foreign country.

She lived by herself, had no money and her English was so bad that it was difficult for her to

find work. Eventually, she got a job as a cleaner in McDonalds.

One day, everything changed. By chance, a fashion photographer came in for a burger and

saw Waris cleaning the floor. She looked like a perfect model so he immediately offered her

work. 3_____________________________________

She became a top fashion model, advertising Revlon beauty products, and her face was on the

covers of hundreds of magazines around the world. She was even in a James Bond film, The

Living Daylights, in 1987.

Waris had such a warm and attractive face that her modelling career was a huge success.

4_______________________________________________________

She wrote her autobiography, Desert Flower, about her exciting and exceptional life. ‘It’s

very sad,’ she says. ‘I had to make the choice to leave my country.’ What was it like in

Africa? ‘Africa was different,’ she says. ‘I was young. I had nothing to worry about. I had my

family, I had my animals, I had my simple life.’

5________________________________________ She works for the United Nations and

campaigns for women’s rights all over the world. There is never a dull moment. ‘I’m trying to

sit down for a moment and there is no time for that,’ she laughs. ‘In Somalia, we don’t care

what time it is!’

JUNGLE RUNAWAYS

They jumped 12 metres into the sea from a ship. They swam thirty kilometres through

shark-infected waters and then lived for 17 days in one of Australia’s most dangerous

jungles. The 18-year-old twins, Sarah and Joanne Ingham, should be dead, but last night

they were safe at a police station in Cairns. Their parents couldn’t believe it when they

heard the news. ‘It’s an absolute miracle,’ said their mother.

The story began in the port of Nelson in New Zealand where the girls lived. There

they met a Malaysian sailor, called Mohammed Zan. When Mohammed’s ship left Nelson on

February 17th

, the girls hid on board. Several of the sailors knew about the girls and brought

them food and clothes. They did the job very well, because it was two months before the

captain discovered them. In that time, the ship travelled to Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia and it

was on its way back to New Zealand.

However, near Singapore, the captain heard about the sailors’ secret, and the girls

and Mohammed were locked up in different parts of the ship. Then, on the night on April 19th

,

as the ship was sailing past the Australian coast, the three disappeared. When the ship was

searched the next day, three life-jackets were missing.

Sarah, Joanne and Mohammed spent 24 hours in the Coral Sea with sharks and

poisonous jellyfish before they landed at the mouth of a river in northern Queensland. Even

here they weren’t safe, as the river is home to enormous man-eating crocodiles. Somehow

they survived, and they spent the next 17 days in a country that is full of poisonous snakes and

all kinds of insects that bite and sting. They found fresh water in the rivers and they ate

shellfish and berries. ‘We’re all amazed,’ said one of the police officers. ‘We wouldn’t dare to

go walking around in that area – even with a gun. We don’t understand how they survived.’

Eventually, the three runaways were found by some local Aborigines who offered t

take them to the town of Coen in their lorry. Weak and hungry, they accepted, but before they

reached the town, they decided to run away again. They stole some food and clothes from a

local shop and disappeared into the jungle. This time, however, the police soon caught them

and took them to Cairns, 300 miles away. The girls will be flown back to New Zealand

tomorrow. They are not looking forward to going home!
