J Read the summary. Find five more mistakes.

Through their binoculars, the children watch the pirates sail away. They also see another ship with
green sails and a black flag. When they look to the south, they see a bigger island with a town on it.
Then they go to dig up the treasure. After three hours, they find the chest which is full of gold coins.
While they are deciding what to do with the treasure, they see some people with children arriving.
They bring coconuts and talk to the people, who explain that the pirates have stolen their gold.
The children show them the treasure and give it back to them. They tell the people to go to the town
on the other island. The people then leave.
Later, at night, five pirates and their prisoner arrive. They are looking for the treasure, but they only
find a big hole. Patrick sneezes and the pirates find the children. The pirates want to know where the
chest has gone and they threaten to throw the children into the sea. Then the light appears in the
hole, so the children jump in and escape.

Read and complete the sentences. Then match them with the objects from Activity 4.

Silver and gold are precious for many reasons. They don’t react with many other things and they
are also not affected by water. Gold is not affected by the air, but the surface of silver can sometimes
become black. Both gold and silver reflect light, so they look shiny. They are soft metals and easy to
make lots of different things with. Gold can be stretched into thin layers or even into wires. It can be
melted and mixed with other metals to make it harder. Silver and gold can also carry electricity and
heat very well.

J AJ AJ — — 1 —J 1 Of course, it's important to be good at your
sport and to practise it often, but it's also good to try some different exercises
too. Runners sometimes swim or cycle to improve their stamina. Fencers might
do some work on the running track to improve their speed and wrestlers can
spend a lot of time weightlifting to build up their strength.
It's important to rest your body too. Top athletes have at least one day each
week when they take a break from training, so their bodies can recover.
I As well as having a break from exercise, athletes need to get a lot of
i sleep. Olympic athletes often sleep for ten hours a night and many
of them are in bed by 9 o'clock!
I Eating the right food is very important too. Athletes need the right
balance of food to give them energy and keep them healthy.
Carbohydrates are great for energy, but they also need a lot of protein,
fruit and vegetables. Of course, they need to drink plenty of water too.

You need to focus on just one sport if you want to do well.

Swimming and cycling can help build up stamina.
Running can improve your strength.
Top athletes train every day of the week.
Olympic athletes have to get up early every day.

 Look at the photos. What is similar about all the houses?

All the houses

W H A T IS THE In the past, houses in many cultures were round. Igloos, tepees,
yurts and some stone or mud round houses are all based on
the shape of a cylinder or sphere. At some point, builders started to build more
cuboid houses. Perhaps it was easier to split bigger houses into rooms when
they were this shape, or maybe more houses could be packed into a smaller
space if they had straight sides. No-one is certain why this change happened.
Today, however, many architects think that there are advantages to building
houses in the shape of cylinders:
• They take less time to build and use fewer materials.
• They are stronger than a shape with several sides.
• They are warmer because they need less energy to heat them.
• They are very safe in strong winds because the wind blows round them.
• They are quieter because sound also flows round them, rather
than crashing into them.
Perhaps this is the future of housing. W hat do you think?

Read the article in Activity 3 and write t (true), f (false) or ds (doesn’t say).

1 Building round houses is a new idea. f

People started building cuboid houses because they were cheaper.
It is quicker to build a round house than a cuboid house.
Round houses can blow down easily in a storm.
It isn’t as noisy inside a round house.
Round houses are more popular than cuboid houses now.

the snake with many heads in Greek mythology, which Hercules fought. Five stars
make up its head, while the rest of its body stretches across the sky.

Every year, hundreds of thousands of birds are killed as they make the long journey
from Africa to Europe. Birds like turtle doves, nightingales, cuckoos and ospreys
spend the European winter on the African continent and they return to Europe in the
spring to make nests and lay eggs. In September, they leave again to fly back to
Africa, where it is warm. Unfortunately, as these birds fly over the south of Europe
and the sea north of Africa, many are shot and killed, even though these birds are

protected by international laws. Some are eaten, but most are just shot for fun. This
means that these traditional summer birds are becoming much more difficult to find in

®RGTieiRW?NTil!IFE
We've looked at some of the animals and people that live in the Arctic
and have seen how they survive there, but what about the plants?
For plants in the Arctic, finding the heat, light and water they need to
survive can be a big challenge. The Arctic is in total darkness for
about 11 weeks during the winter. But in the middle of summer, it can
be light for nearly 24 hours at a time!
Arctic plants can make flowers and seeds very quickly when it's sunny.
Many of them have dark flowers to absorb the sun's energy. Some of them
also have cup-shaped flowers so that they can direct the sun's energy
into the middle of the flower. | |

Water is only available in the Arctic for a short amount of time too. There
are only 5 0 -9 0 days when the ground isn't covered in ice, and even then, only
a very small layer of soil melts enough to provide water. For this reason, Arctic
plants have very shallow roots and that's why you won't find trees in the Arctic!
You won't find big leaves in the Arctic, either. The plants that survive in the Arctic
have very small leaves so that they don't lose much water from the surface.
Arctic plants have also adapted to the cold and w indy conditions by staying
close to the ground and close to each other. You won't find many tall plants
standing on their own. Many of them also have a thin layer of hair to give them
more protection from the wind, ice and snow - just like a woolly jumper! I I

The Stone Age is called the Stone Age because people used stone to make tools and
like axes with flint heads, at that time. For food, they used to animals and
( 7 ) fruit, berries, leaves and eggs.

J Read more about the Stone Age. Write the phrases in the correct place in the chart.

Archaeologists divide the Stone Age into different stages. Over time,
many parts of human life - not just tools and weapons - developed
and changed.
In the Old Stone Age, people lived mainly in caves, then in wooden huts.
Later in the Stone Age, houses were stronger. Some had stone or mud
walls and permanent roofs made from dried grass.
Why was that? Well, people developed tools which helped them to chop
down trees, so they started to clear areas of land to grow simple crops
and vegetables. This meant they could stay in one place, rather than
moving around to hunt and gather food. Sometimes they kept cows,
sheep and pigs, for their milk, wool and meat.
During the Stone Age, people also learned how to use fire. At first, they used it for warmth and
protection. By the New Stone Age, they were also using fire for cooking, often in clay pots that they
had made. Many New Stone Age houses had an area inside for a fire - a kind of Stone Age kitchen!

History
Read about another development in the Stone Age. Write t (true), f (false) or ds (doesn’t say).

Stone
unter-gatherers often painted the inside of their caves. The oldest cave paintings
date from around 40,000 years ago and were found in Australia. The oldest cave
paintings in Europe are around 28,000 years old. There are lots of cave paintings in
the south-west of France and the north of Spain. Cave paintings have also been
found in parts of Asia and Africa.
Stone Age people used the earth around them to make paint. Yellow paint came
from clay, red paint from stones and black paint from charcoal. The natural colours were mixed with water and then
painted onto cave walls with fingers or brushes which were made from fur, feathers or twigs.
Cave paintings show the natural world that Stone Age people saw around them. They might be maps or messages
about natural features, time or distance. Many paintings show animals, but some show groups of simple 'stick
people' hunting, or perhaps the stars in the night sky.

Cave paintings have been found in several continents.

The oldest cave paintings in the world are in France.
Blue was never used in cave paintings.
Cave art was always painted with paintbrushes.
Stone Age people used parts of plants and animals to paint with.
Cave paintings never show rivers or trees.

Look. What do you think these cave paintings mean? Write a letter.
