2. Read. Then answer the questions.

Once there were two friends called Sigurd and Regin, and they lived in the land of dragons. One of the
dragons was called Fafnir. He lived in a cave near the sea, and he had some gold in this cave. Sigurd and
Regin decided to kill the dragon. They wanted the gold. Sigurd and Regin dug the hole in the ground
outside the dragons cave. Then Sigurd hid in the hole and waited. Regin climbed a tree and watched.
After some time, he fell asleep. At last the dragon came out of the cave. Sigurd quickly jumped up and
surprised the dragon. He fought the dragon bravely and after many hours the dragon fell. Sigurd

touched the dragons face. It was magic. Suddenly Sigurd understood the language of birds. Two birds
were watching Sigurd and they were talking. Regin is planning to take all the gold, they said. So
Sigurd took the gold, got on his horse, and rode far away while Regin was still sleeping.

3. Read the text about CARNAC . Circle the correct answer.
The standing stones of Carnac
One of the biggest and most interesting ancient places of Europe is in France. The standing stones of
Carnac are not as famous as Stonehenge but there are many more of them. Carnac is a small seaside
town in Brittany, France, and is famous for its stones. The stones probably come from about 3000 BC
and there are thousands of them. They are put in rows, like roads, and you cant see one end from the
other - they go on for kilometres. There are also a lot of small caves, which are covered by stones. No
one knows how many stones were put here because people used them for building , and farmers
removed them because they did not want visitors to walk all over their fields. The stones were closed
to visitors in 1990 because the tourists were not being careful with the stones. You can now visit them
again, but only a few visitors are allowed at one time. No one knows how exactly why these stones
were put in Carnac. Some people think the lines of stones were a way of watching the Moon and its
changes over the months, and most people believe that the small caves are tombs.
