TEXTO 2: NEW ZEALAND ADVENTURES DO YOU WANT TO SEE THE BEAUTY OF NEW ZEALAND AND HAVE AN UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE? THEN CHOOSE ONE OF THESE PROGRAMMES PROGRAMME 1: Nature in New Zealand New Zealands native wildlife is unique and this programme covers a large area, so in six days, many sites can be visited and a lot can be seen. Participants need to have a medium level of fitness and be able to walk for at least two hours at a time during a normal six-hour trek. The native forests are home to unique bird life. Participants in this programme will not only learn about projects to improve the area for the birds but they will also have an opportunity to work on the projects, helped by local scientific researchers. Participants will stay with local New Zealanders who have deep knowledge of the natural environment and who will give them a bed for the night and breakfast in their homes. During the course of the programme, there will also be a walk through native forest on an overnight guided trip, staying in basic but comfortable bush cabins built in the forest. PROGRAMME 2: Wild New Zealand New Zealand has sharp contrasts in its geography, and this programme focuses on the wild landscape of an area which is little known outside of New Zealand: the Wellington and Wararaipa regions. Here participants will leave the main path and take part in some exciting activities to get closer to nature. Depending on the weather, the programme will include white water rafting, visiting caves and mountain walks. Most of the places visited are very rough, wet and muddy. Waterproof jackets and strong boots are essential items which cannot be bought locally. Application process 1. Complete and send us the application form. Upon receipt of the form we will check the availability we have for the programme you have chose. We will then either email you a letter of acceptance or suggest other available programmes. 2. Decision point: Once you have read through the letter of acceptance, it is time to pay your deposit to secure your place on the programme. Please note that we will return your deposit if you decide not to go after all. 3. When you have paid your deposit, we will send you an eight-page booklet with further details about the programme you have chosen, including the arrangements to welcome you on arrival. The full programme fee covers airport pick up, accommodation, meals and guiding and needs to be paid to us eight weeks before you start the programme. You will need to pay for other costs, such as taxes, and to arrange your own travel insurance for the whole of your journey, as we do not provide that service.

TAREA TEXTO 2: Diga si las siguientes frases son verdaderas (V) o falsas (F): 1. Programme 1 requires the ability to walk without stopping for no less than two hours. 2. In Programme 1, you can take part in research to improve conditions for local birds. 3. In Programme 1, you can choose between accommodation in peoples houses or in forest cabins. 4. In Programme 2, you will visit an area that New Zealand people do not know. 5. All activities in Programme 2 will take place whatever the weather conditions. 6.

After you have paid the deposit, you get your money back if you cancel your booking. 9. You must pay your programme fee no later than the day you arrive in New Zealand. 10.
