D An exciting competition
E Women students
F Ancient universities
1……………………………………………………………………………….
The towns of Oxford and Cambridge have some of the finest buildings in Britain.
They are famous for their universities, the oldest in England. All the students live and
study in colleges. Cambridge has 31 colleges and Oxford has 39. Oxford’s first college
started in 1249. Cambridge’s first college opened in 1281.
2………………………………………………………………………………….
Before the 12th century, people who wanted a good education went to the Sorbonne
in Paris. Then, in 1167, all English students in Paris moved to Oxford. Some people sayKing Henry II told them to move. Others say the French threw them out! The students went to study in Oxford monasteries and that was the beginning of Oxford University.
3………………………………………………………………………………………
The Church was very important in Oxford and Cambridge for many years. For example,until the 19th century the university teachers were almost like priests and they couldn’t marry.
4…………………………………………………………………………………..
Women started studying later than men. The first women’s college at Cambridge
opened in 1869 and at Oxford in 1878. Today, three Cambridge colleges and one Oxford college are for women only. Men and women study together in the others.
5………………………………………………………………………………….
Every year the universities compete in a rowing race over 7 kilometres of the Thames.
The first race was in 1829 and it became a yearly race in 1839. All the students really
want their university to win!
6…………………………………………………………………………………..
People can stay in rooms at Oxford and Cambridge when the students are on holiday.
Some rooms are modern but the older rooms are more interesting (and more uncomfortable!).
They often have low ceilings, small windows and a view of the square in the
middle of the college. Imagine sleeping in the same room as an ex Prime Minister or
eating at the same table as Lawrence of Arabia!

         Dear Mom and Dad,
         This is my fifth day at the summer camp. Life in the great outdoors isn’t exactly
what I’ve expected, but I’m not starving ... yet ... so don’t worry about me.
I guess I should tell you about what I do every day. First, everyone has to get up at
5:30 A.M. They have this silly old rooster named Harry who loves to wake us up. Next,we have to make our beds and tidy up the cabin before our camp counselor, Jeff, comesto inspect the place.
        Then, we have breakfast around 6:30 A.M. After that, we have some free time, so
I’ve been going down to the nearby stream to fish for a couple of hours. But yesterday,
the only thing I caught was an old shoe and a tree branch. Great catch, Huh? Then
when I was trying to swat a mosquito buzzing around my head, I slipped and fell in the
stream and lost my fishing pole. That ended my fishing career.
Well, in the afternoon, there are different activities we can choose from like archery,
horseback riding, and hiking. I thought archery would be the sport for me until
I shot an arrow through Jeff’s pant leg. As you can imagine, I haven’t been invited
back since.
       In the evening, everyone is assigned a different chore to get dinner ready. Yesterday,
I was in charge of cooking the hotdogs, but I accidentally dropped them in the fire,
so we had to settle for beans instead. The other kids are always razzing me about it.
At night, we sit around a campfire in front of the cabin, sing songs, and tell ghost
stories. That’s usually fun, but one night while trying to find more sticks for the fire,
I got all turned around and got lost. After about an hour of wandering aimlessly in the
forest, I finally found my way back, but no one seemed to have realized what had happened,thinking that I just had gone to bed. A bear or wolf could have eaten me and no one would have known it. I was so beat I just crashed ... out like a light.
            Well, today is another day and tomorrow I go home ... and not a bit too soon. I’ve learned that camping is just not for me.
                                                                                                       Love,
                                                                                                                           Brad
1. Brad wrote a letter to his sister and brother.
2. Brad wrote in his letter that he wasn’t starving.
3. Brad does the same things every morning.
4. Brad wakes up at 6:30 in the morning.
5. Brad never has free time at the camp.
6.  A mosquito caused Brad to fall into the stream.
7. Brad really enjoys archery.
8. Brad shot his friend Jeff in the leg with an arrow.
9. Brad dropped the beans in the fire, so the kids had to eat hot dogs.
10. Brad was lost for an hour in the forest.

is extra.

A How dangerous is it?
B What’s it like up there?
C Have you had any funny experiences?
D How long have you been a window cleaner?
E Would you like to change your job?

When you hear the phrase ‘dangerous jobs’, you probably think of firefighters, lifeguards or police officers. Can window cleaning be dangerous? No? Well, if you are
working 250m above the ground, it can be very dangerous. This week, Darren Barnes,
a window cleaner on some of the tallest buildings in Perth, in Australia, talks to us.
1……………………………………………………………
For ten years, I was working as a builder before that. Then, my brother started
cleaning windows on skyscrapers and I changed jobs to work with him. I have always
loved being up in the sky!
2……………………………………………………………………….
If you’re not afraid of heights, it’s great. On a sunny day the view is amazing. It’s very
quiet and the people below look like ants. Of course, bad weather can be a problem – you know, strong winds – and the pollution sometimes makes the city look grey. However, I like it up there.
3………………………………………………………………………..
Well, it’s safer than it looks. The job was more difficult when I started. But safety
equipment has changed a lot since then. We’ve got a power roof car now to take us to
the top instead of the old chair. And I don’t work alone. Twelve of us clean a building,
so we look out for each other.
4……………………………………………………………………………….
Oh sure. Once, a pigeon sat on my head for hours and went up and down the building
with me. It came every day and we used to share my sandwiches.

ROMEO AND JULIET – THE GREATEST LOVE STORY
OF ALL TIMES
        Since the invention of the motion picture in 1894, Romeo and Juliet has bееn оnе of
the most popular stories in films. Numerous movies have bееn based оn Shakespeare’s
famous love story, the earliest dating back to 1900. Маnу directors have taken this
famous play and made it into а film, trying to keep to the themes of the original story.
Оnе of them is Baz Luhrmann. His version of Romeo and Juliet, produced in 1996,
has bееn described as аn original, post-modern version of Shakespeare’s tragic love story.With this extremely successful film, Luhrmann has managed to update the story –
bу combining modern-day settings and characters with almost the original language.
        The story is set in Miami. The changes in the language, together with dramatic gun fights and passionate love scenes, make the story more accessible to modern audiences.
In Luhrmann’s version of the film, the main characters, Romeo (Leonardo di Caprio)
and Juliet (Clare Danes), аrе Miami teenagers of the nineties. Еven though the setting
of the film is very unconventional, it contains all the themes of the original version,
because it does not change the story at all.

1. Lots of films have bееn produced that are based оn
A  William Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet.
B  а motion picture from 1894 called Romeo and Juliet.
C  аn invention made bу William Shakespeare in 1894.
D  one of William Shakespeare’s comedies.

2. Baz Luhrmann
A is the only film director who has tried to keep to the themes of the original play.
B is оne of the film directors who have tried to keep to the themes of the original play.
C produced his earliest version of Romeo and Juliet as early as 1900.
D is the film director who produced а modern, but not very successful version of the play.

3. The language in Luhrmann’s film is
A exactly the same as in Shakespeare’s play.
B completely different from Shakespeare’s play.
C almost the same as in Shakespeare’s play.
D too modern and full of slang.

4. Why did Luhrmann make some changes to the setting?
A Because he added gun fights and passionate lоvе scenes.
B Because he wanted to help people to understand the story better.
C Because teenagers in Miami speak а very strong dialect.
D Because he was bored with the original version.

         Today, millions of people want to learn or improve their English but it is difficult to find
the best method. Is it better to study in Britain or America or to study in your own country?
The advantages of going to Britain seem obvious. Firstly, you will be able to listen
to the language all the time you are in the country. You will be surrounded completely
by the language wherever you go. Another advantage is that you have to speak the
language if you are with other people. In Italy, it is always possible, in the class, to
speak Italian if you want to and the learning is slower.
        On the other hand, there are also advantages of staying at home to study. You don’t have to make big changes to your life. As well as this, it is also much cheaper than going to Britain but it is never possible to achieve the results of living in the UK. If you have a good teacher in Italy, I think you can learn in a more concentrated way than being in Britain without going to a school.
         So, in conclusion, I think that if you have enough time and enough money, the best choice is to spend some time in the UK. This is simply not possible for most people, so being here in Italy is the only viable option. The most important thing to do in this situation is to maximise your opportunities: to speak only English in class and to try to use English whenever possible outside the class.

2. What is one of the advantages of going to the UK to learn English?
A There are no Italians in Britain.
B You will have to speak English and not your language.

         Hi! I’m Jake.
          I have returned to my hometown of Wilson Creek after an absence of 10 years. So many things have changed around here. When I left Wilson Creek, there was a small pond on the right as you left town. They have filled in this pond and they have built a large shopping mall there. A new post office has also been built just across from my old school.
       There is a baseball stadium on the outskirts of Wilson Creek which has been changed completely. They have now added a new stand where probably a few thousand people could sit. It looks really great.
          The biggest changes have taken place in the downtown area. They have changed the centre into a walking zone and you can’t drive there anymore. A European-style
fountain has been built and some benches have also been added along with a grassy area and a new street cafe.
          My street looks just the same as it always has but a public library has been built in the next street along. There used to be a great park there but they have cut down all
the trees which is a pity. The library now has a large green area in front of it but it’s
not the same as when the park was there.
           Another improvement is the number of new restaurants that have opened in Wilson Creek. A Chinese and an Italian restaurant have opened in the town centre and a Mexican restaurant has opened near my home. Which is where I am going tonight!

1. Jake’s school doesn’t exist anymore.
2. They have improved the baseball stadium.
3. Jake likes the newlook baseball stadium.
4. It’s only possible to reach the downtown area on foot.
5. The buildings in the centre of the town look European.
6. Jake’s street hasn’t changed much.
7. He is sad about the park being ruined.
8. Jake is going to eat Italian food tonight.

           Dolphins are very popular animals – they are considered to be intelligent and friendly and they seem to play and smile all the time. There are almost 40 species of dolphins and watching them in their natural environment is an unforgettable experience.
However, the future of these marine mammals is in danger. Amongst the many
threats to dolphins are environmental pollution, noise pollution, habitat destruction
and industrial fishing: many dolphins die as by catch in fishing nets or cannot find
enough food due to overfishing.
             To protect dolphins from extinction, the United Nations declared 2007 the Year of the Dolphin. With this campaign, the United Nations wanted to make people aware of the many threats dolphins face.
              Patron of the Year of the Dolphin was Prince Albert II of Monaco. He said, “The Year of the Dolphin gives me the opportunity to renew my firm commitment towards protecting marine biodiversity. With this strong initiative we can make a difference to save these fascinating marine mammals from the brink of extinction.”

        “When I visit London one of my favourite things to do is shopping! I really enjoy
hunting around for interesting things in the sales, buying something new to wear out
on a Saturday night. Or a bit of window- shopping – it doesn’t cost a penny. Sometimes I’ll spend hours just walking around a market having a chat with my friends.
         There are lots of different places to go shopping in London. If you’re looking for
‘high street’ shops – the kind of shops you will find in most towns, you can go to Oxford Street, but it gets too busy sometimes; it can be difficult to get anywhere! For a less crowded, more relaxing shopping experience, go to Covent Garden – you can have an expensive cappuccino, and watch some (free) street theatre at the same time.
          Some people like shopping in department stores. The most famous one in London is ‘Harrods’ in Knightsbridge, but for me, it’s not modern enough, and too expensive, the sort of place your parents do their shopping. The best of all the big department stores is ‘Selfridges’ in Oxford Street, it’s a shoppers’ paradise, nice clothes but very high prices. Well I can look, can’t I?
      For the ‘day out walking around a market’ experience, try ‘Camden’. It’s exciting,
fashionable, and there are lots of lovely things at attractive prices! You can buy cheap
jeans and cool second hand clothes in the morning and then get a tattoo and a body
piercing later on! If all that shopping is too tiring, you can get some Chinese or Thai food for ‡2 or 3, sit by the canal and relax. What could be better?
      If you think you need to experience more of London’s ‘culture’, you might prefer a trip to Greenwich. This is a much more relaxing day out. You can have a walk round the market and shops, and then take in a bit of London’s history – it was the birthplace of Henry VIII, Queen Mary and Elizabeth I. There’s also the park, the ‘Cutty Sark’ (an old ship that was used for transporting tea), and the old observatory ... so much to do, but don’t forget the shopping!”

      Once there were four children whose names were Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy.
This story is about something that happened to them when they were sent away from
London during the war because of the air-raids. They were sent to the house of an old
Professor who lived in the heart of the country, ten miles from the nearest railway station and two miles from the nearest post office. He had no wife and he lived in a very large house with a housekeeper called Mrs. Macready and three servants. (Their names were Ivy, Margaret and Betty, but they do not come into the story much.) He himself was a very old man with shaggy white hair which grew over most of his face as well as on his head, and they liked him almost at once; but on the first evening when he came out to meet them at the front door he was so odd- looking that Lucy (who was the youngest) was a little afraid of him, and Edmund (who was the next youngest) wanted to laugh and had to keep on pretending he was blowing his nose to hide it.
                                                                Taken from The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis1.
