Speed dating
1Read the first paragraph of the article and answer the questions.
a What is speed dating? ______________________________________________________ _ b Where did speed dating start? _______________________________________________ c How much time have you got to talk to each person?___________________________ Speed dating
Speed dating started in the USA and quickly spread to other countries. The idea is to meet a number of different people in the same room. In a short time you must decide if you want to see them again in the future. You have just seven minutes to talk to each person. After that time, you must end the conversation and move on to the next person.
How does speed dating work?

You can take part in speed dating now. Just register with us. Its easy! We will tell you about your nearest speed dating venue. When you arrive, we give you a number and tell you where to sit. You have seven minutes to talk face-to-face with your partner. Find out as much as you can! After that time, you must move on and talk to a different person. Dont exchange personal information (your address and phone number, for example). And it isnt a good idea to talk about work or money! After a few conversations with different people, its time to make a decision. Who do you want to see again? Tell us (in secret, of course!). If that special person also wants to see you, dont worry. We will send you an e-mail with all the contact details.
Your questions, our answers

Who can take part? Anybody over eighteen who wants to meet other people. It doesnt matter if you are shy, sociable, tall, short, black or white everyone is welcome. Can I go with a friend? Yes, but they must register first. And dont forget that the idea is to meet new people. What happens if I get scared and dont go to the venue? Nothing! But you risk missing the man or woman of your life!
2 Read the rest of the article. Write true (T) or false (F). Correct the false sentences.
a If you want to take part in speed dating, go to the venue and register. F You must register on the web site first. ___________________________________________________________________ b After seven minutes, you can stay with the same person if you like him or her. ___________________________________________________________________ c You can give someone your phone number and address. ___________________________________________________________________ d If you like someone, you tell the organizers. ___________________________________________________________________ e You cant take part in speed dating if you are nineteen. ___________________________________________________________________ f You can take a friend with you when you go speed dating. ___________________________________________________________________ g If you dont go to the venue, the organizers will punish you. ___________________________________________________________________

Many people think Nelson Mandela is the most important leader in history. This is because he tried to improve conditions, not only for black people in South Africa, but for everybody all over the world. 4 a _____ When he became the first democratically elected black President of South Africa in 1994, it was another step in an extraordinary journey. His autobiography, A Long Walk to Freedom, talks about this journey, which began when he was born in 1918 in a village called Qunu. His father was a Chief of the Tembu tribe. b ____ He was a special person from an early age. When Nelson was a child, almost no black children could go to school, but Mandela studied and became a lawyer. This was very useful to him when he started his fight against apartheid, the separation of black and white people in all areas of society, which began in South Africa in the 1940s. c ____ Nelson fought hard to help people. In the 1940s and 1950s he talked about education, formed organizations and led protests, but legally he couldnt do much because black people did not have the same rights as white people. d ____ The government put Nelson in prison in 1962. At first it was for five years; then they changed the sentence to life imprisonment. Mandela never gave up his belief that freedom and equality for everybody was right. e ____ Eventually, the political system changed and Mandelas resistance, even while he was in jail, was an important reason for this change. He was released in 1990 after almost twenty-eight years in prison. Three years later, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace. Mandela was truly a champion of the people.

Throughout history courageous people have not let their physical impediments stop them from fulfilling their dreams. They did or are doing great things, in spite of their disabilities. A famous person from the past is Beethoven, one of the greatest composers of all times. When he was only four years old, he showed a love for music, and his father began to teach him to play the piano and violin. As a young man Beethoven began to lose his hearing, and some years later became totally deaf. But he still continued to compose music. In fact, during this time he wrote some of his greatest works, which he was never able to hear performed. Helen Keller was born in 1880, in Alabama. When she was nineteen months old, she became ill with a high fever and lost her sight and hearing; she was left in a dark, soundless world. Anne Sullivan came to teach Helen to communicate. After long months, she was finally able to teach Helen the word water by finger spelling on her hand. This was an important breakthrougha miracle had happened! From then on, Helen learned quickly and eventually attended Radcliffe College. Born in 1945 in Israel, Itzhak Perlman is one of the worlds greatest violinists. He became sick with polio at the age of four and his legs were permanently paralyzed. Nevertheless, he began his music career at the Tel-Aviv Academy of Music. Mr. Pearlman has won many awards and has played with every major orchestra in events all over the world. He performs his music while seated and walks with crutches. He is a well-known advocate for people with disabilities. Stephen Hawking is a Mathematics professor at Cambridge University. He became famous in 1988 when he wrote A Brief History of Time. The book tries to explain how the universe began. Professor Hawking is almost totally paralyzed as a result of a motor neurone disease and he uses a voice synthesizer to speak. His brain, however, is as active as ever. He is still writing today.

Work and war Money makes the world go around! From stage to screen Problems around the world Problems around the world. a __________________________________________ Cabaret is a famous movie that is set in Berlin during the Great Depression in the 1930s, a period when there was poverty and financial difficulties all over the world. It was during this time that Adolf Hitler came to power in Germany, because he promised the people he could solve their problems. b __________________________________________ In the end, instead of helping the German people, his actions contributed to the beginning of the Second World War. One of the reasons for this was that he employed lots of people in the factories to make weapons. That meant that people in Germany had work, but other countries in Europe became afraid of what Hitler was going to do. They were right to be afraid. During the 1930s Hitler broke lots of promises and began to invade countries around Germany. c __________________________________________ The story of Cabaret was written by a man who had lived in Berlin during the 1920s. It takes place at the beginning of the 1930s, when Hitlers Nazi party was becoming very strong. Before being made into a movie, Cabaret was a novel and then a musical for the stage. It was written during the 1960s and was a great success. d __________________________________________ It was even more successful when it was turned into a movie in the 1970s starring the famous actress and singer Liza Minelli. One of the most famous songs from the movie it is not in the original musical is called Money, Money. This song tells us that money is the most important thing in the world for many people. Certainly, when people dont have money, it can cause many problems.

The moment that changed Mandy Moores life was completely unexpected. I know everyone says that, she says, but its absolutely true! One minute I was there watching a TV program, and the next Im in Hollywood! Mandy worked in a bank in a small town. She had a quiet life, living with her family, (she didnt earn enough money to buy her own house) and watching TV with a few good friends from school. We used to get together sometimes in the evenings. Our favorites were the shows where real people go on and talk about their lives and their loves. Sometimes they even start fighting. Its crazy. One day, one of Mandys friends told her that they had tickets to see their favorite show Oprah being recorded in the studio. I was so excited I couldnt sit still in the studio. When Oprah asked the audience if anybody could do anything a bit strange, I shouted: I can make animal noises! Well I can all my life I could do animal noises. So I did it, cock-a-doodle-doo! I made a sound. My friends were so embarrassed, but Oprah thought it was fantastic, and she asked me to come down and do it again. The audience loved it! The TV and radio stations loved it, too. When the program finished, Mandy had offers of work from five different stations! Now she works in Hollywood interviewing famous people about movies and TVincluding an actor who asked her to marry him! Of course I said yes. Its a dream come trueall because I made that stupid noise. What a moment!

Unit6
1 In ancient times, people didnt really understand how the Earth, the sun, and the stars moved. They observed the sky all the time and imagined that the constellationsthe way the stars appear to be in groupsmight be important. 2 Several of these constellations are in the zodiac and are represented by symbols. People thought that the changing positions of the constellations at different times of the year affected people and events on Earth. They imagined stories about their gods and other myths. 3 Imagine a straight line drawn from Earth through the Sun and out into space. Then, as the Earth orbits the Sun, the imaginary line would rotate, pointing to different stars throughout one complete orbit, which takes one year. 4 The Babylonians lived over 3,000 years ago. They divided their year into twelve months because of the Moon. So they divided the zodiac into twelve equal partslike cutting a pizza into twelve equal slicesand each month got a slice of the zodiac all to itself. 5 According to the Babylonians own ancient stories, there were thirteen constellations in the zodiac. The Babylonians picked one, Ophiuchus, to leave out. But the constellations are different sizes and shapes. So the Sun spends different lengths of time lined up with each one. 6 Other cultures and traditions have recognized as many as twenty-four constellations in the zodiacit all depends on the different parts of the world! Maybe the Babylonians just didnt like the number thirteen. It is unlucky, you know
2 Now match these ideas to the paragraphs they describe best.

a b c d e f ___ 4 The Babylonians wanted to make their zodiac the same as their year. ___ Its a bit like a very big clock. ___ Sometimes, things dont fit perfectly into place! ___ Things that happen in space can change things on Earth. ___ People interpret things in different ways all over the world. ___ Science was quite simple in the past. People watched things and had ideas.

Youve all heard of Big Brother, the reality TV show where strangers live together in a house and are watched by cameras twenty-four hours a day. But did you know that the idea of Big Brother comes from the novel 1984 by George Orwell, that was written in 1947. Big Brother was the name of an unknown figure who ruled the world. 1984 describes a society where everyone and everything is totally controlled, even your thoughts! The planet in 1984 is divided into three countries: Oceania, Eurasia and Eastasia. Big Brother and his political party controls the whole world. There are two-way televisions in everyones house and cameras on the streets, so that Big Brother can see what you are doing every single moment. These televisions cannot be turned off and they send out the constant propaganda messages of the Party. The three slogans of the Party are War is peace, Freedom is slavery and Ignorance is strength. But the most feared of all government agencies is the Thought Police. The worst crime is a thought crime which is anything that does not agree with the Party and Big Brother. People are encouraged to hate each other; there are special TV programs to make the citizens angry and violent. They are also taught to spy on each other, to tell the Thought Police if they suspect a neighbor of being different. Everyone wears similar clothes and they all exercise at the same time. Sounds like a great read, doesnt it? Why dont you see if you can find a copy of 1984 in your library or bookstore?

Basketball is unusual because it did not evolve from another sport; it was invented by one man. In 1891, Dr. James Naismith, a Canadian minister on the faculty of a college in Massachusetts, was asked to make up an indoor game to keep athletes busy during the long winters. Legend has it that, after he wrote the rules for the new sport, he nailed a peach basket onto the gym wall. Basketball soon became popular all over the world. It was first included in the Olympic Games in 1936, and women's basketball was added in 1976. Basketball is played by two teams of five players who score points by throwing a ball into the opposing team's basket. Players can move the ball around the court by passing, tapping, throwing, rolling or dribbling. Passing is throwing the ball from player to player. Dribbling refers to running while continuously bouncing the ball. The only essential equipment in basketball is the court, which consists of two baskets with backboards, and a basketball (Basketball was originally played with a soccer ball.) At competition level, clocks are necessary to regulate game time. A referee and umpires called officials, control the game. The officials call fouls and violations and oversee substitutions, timeouts, and other details. An attempt to unfairly disadvantage an opponent through personal contact is illegal and is called a foul. If a player commits a foul, the opposing team is awarded one or more free throws.
2 Read the text. If you cant understand the rules, dont worry! Many people cant.
Invent a new game using a ball. Write the rules (no more than five)!
BASKETBALL RULES Only five players from each team can be on the court at one time. Players can be substituted during the game. The ball cannot be kicked or struck with the fist or go out of the court. Traveling is a violation; it means to run with the ball without dribbling. Also, the ball can only be dribbled with one hand at a time. Blocking, charging, hacking and holding are considered fouls. They involve unfair personal contact with the opponent. If a player commits a foul the opposing team is awarded one or more free shots.
