Activity 2.3.7 Reading

A. Which relative pronouns fit best? Choose the best option.
The Detective Novel
For over a hundred years detective stories have been one of the most popular forms of writing.
The book (that/who) 1 they appear in is often called “whodunits”. In many cases. The detectives in
these novels are professional police officers. A typical example is Inspector Tom, the famous British
detective (who/which) 2 was created by the writer James Smith.
But many of these characters are private detectives (who/which) 3 help the clients (which/who) 4 they
work for. Perhaps the best-known is Karl White. A private detective was invented by the author Richard
Collins in a novel (which/who) 5 he wrote in 1930.
Of course, not all detectives in fiction are professionals, many are amateurs. One of the most famous of
these is Miss Stevens, a character that Lilian Jones invented in 1925.
In more recent years, scientists and psychologists have taken over the role of detectives in popular
fiction. This is due to the increasingly important role (which/who) 6 science plays in modern police
work. One of the best-known of, these ‘detectives’ is Dr. Kelly Clark the invention of American crime
writer Richard Lewis. Lewis introduced Clark to the world in Postmortem, a book (which/who) 7 she
published in 1990.

The Experience of a Life Time!

I studied engineering at the UASLP. When I graduated, I decided to learn a foreign language. __________1because I heard
many people around the world speak English, so I thought it would be useful.
A friend who was a student at Cambridge University recommended that I study English there. An important part of the
course involved studying abroad. Well, at first, I didn’t really know which country to go to, but one day __________2. It
looked like a great place to visit, so that’s where I went!
When I got to Cambridge, I was nervous because it was my first time abroad on my own. However, everyone at the college
was really friendly and welcoming.
On weekends, they took me and the other new students to visit a lot of fun places. They also organized activities so we
could meet the local people. Our English teacher was really good, too. I was only there three months, but I learned a lot.
Afterwards, I went back to Mexico and immediately started investigating other study abroad options. This
time_______________3 After one month in Montreal, I moved to Toronto. I really enjoyed my time in both places, and felt
my English improved a lot. In Montreal, I stayed with a host family as it was more economical. I worked part-time in a
restaurant and saved some money, so when I moved to Toronto, my budget was bigger and I rented an apartment. My four
months there were the best of all. We spoke English all the time in class! I found it very hard at first and sometimes got
annoyed because I couldn’t understand everything. However, it was a very effective way to learn and actually, by the time I
left, I was fluent. That’s why, when I graduated a year later from the UASLP with a degree in Engineering Management, I
found a job in the U.S.A. I started working for a manufacturing company in Detroit. Nowadays, I can’t believe how lucky I
am._______________4, and I really enjoy my job. What’s more, shortly after settling here, I met an American girl named
Emily. Six months ago, we got married!
For me, studying abroad______________5 and become friends with people from all over the world. It gave me some
fantastic insights into different cultures. But it also gave me a great job, a wife… in fact, a whole new life. I’d recommend
the experience to everyone. Go on, give it a try!
E. Read again. Number these events in John’s life in the correct order (1-9).

Activity 3.3.5 Informal Letter

Informal letters
Sometimes we need to communicate a lot of information and a letter or email may be the easiest way to do
this. We may write a letter to mark a special occasion or to communicate something that’s difficult to say face-
to-face: for example, a letter sending our congratulations on the wedding of a friend. This is a personal letter.
Personal letters may be short or long but they are usually chatty and informal.

4. Read the following text and decide if the sentences are TRUE or FALSE. Check the correct
column.
The Circus
The Rodriguez Brothers Circus is in town! Every year, the circus arrives and stays for a week. Then they go to
the next town.
There are not many animals in the circus. People told the circus that they didn’t like seeing animals
performing. There is an elephant called Jacob and two old lions, Hattie and Meg.
Most of the performers are human! There is Leopold, the strongest man in the world. His father also worked
in the circus, but Leopold is stronger than him, he has bigger arms and bigger legs too! Leopold performs his
act every night for the town’s people who come to watch.
Another performer is Clara. She says she has the longest hair in the world. It’s about 4 meters long! She also
has a daughter who works in the circus. Her name is Sue-Ellen. Her hair is a lot shorter, but she wants to
grow it as long as her mother’s. Sue-Ellen helps look after the animals and she’s also learning how to juggle.
The highlight of the circus are the three clowns, Pit, Pot and Pat. They all wear long red shoes, but Pat’s
shoes are the longest and sometimes, he falls over because they’re so long! They perform for about twenty
minutes and they are always the most popular act with the audience, especially with children. Many people
think Pit, Pot and Pat are three brothers, but Pat is older than the other two - he’s their father! He’s the
oldest clown in the country, but he has a lot of energy.
Tomorrow will be the longest day because the circus is leaving town and everything must be packed away
into big trucks.

1. The circus comes to the town twice a year.
2. Leopold’s father is the strongest man in the world.
3. Clara’s hair is longer than her daughter’s hair.
4. Sue-Ellen want to be a clown in the circus.
