A long time ago in ancient Greece, so the story goes, a creature


called the Sphinx sat on a big rock outside the city of Thebes. The
The Sphinx was a very strange creature. She had the body of a lion,
the wings of a bird and the head of a woman. The Sphinx was also
Riddle a very bad creature. When someone walked past her, she asked
them a riddle: “What walks on 4 legs in the morning, 2 legs in the
of the afternoon, and 3 legs in the evening? ” The sphinx killed any person
who didn’t know the answer to her riddle. The city of Thebes was
Sphinx like a prison. No one wanted to enter or leave the city because they
had to walk past the Sphinx. One day, a young man called Oedipus
1) was travelling through Greece. He 2) was entering the city of Thebes when the Sphinx stopped
him and asked him her riddle. 3) While Oedipus was thinking, the Sphinx was laughing to herself.
“He doesn’t know the answer! ” she thought. But Oedipus was a very clever man. He thought for a moment,
smiled and said “The answer to your riddle is: A man. A man crawls when he is a baby, walks on two feet

KEY when he is an adult, and walks with a cane when he is old.” The Sphinx was so angry that Oedipus knew
the answer that 4) she jumped off her rock, fell to the ground, and died. When the people of Thebes
heard that the Sphinx was dead they all cheered. They were so happy that they 5) made Oedipus their
king.

Have you heard of Puma and adidas? Of course you have!


Puma and adidas are two of the most famous sportswear brands
in the world. Both teenagers and professional athletes love their
quality and style. Footballer and celebrity David Beckham has
played in his adidas football boots for many years now. Tennis
star Serena Williams has won many titles wearing her Puma
tennis dress. Have you ever tried running in a pair of Puma or
adidas trainers? What did you think of them? Are you a Puma
fan…. or an adidas fan? Do you think one brand is better than
the other? Two brothers called Rudi and Adi Dassler certainly
did. Why? Because Rudi Dassler created Puma and Adi Dassler
created adidas. The two brothers didn’t like each other at all
and as a result, Puma and adidas have been in competition
with each other from the beginning. It’s a shame they compete
because both companies are very successful and popular. How
successful? Well, in 2007, adidas sold more than ú10 billion
worth of sportswear and Puma sold more than ú2.5 billion. What
clever businessmen the Dassler brothers were!

(subject) (object)

ñ with the preposition by when we mean ‘alone’, ‘without company’ or ‘without help’.
He painted the kitchen by himself. (without help)
ñ with the expressions: enjoy yourself (have a good time), behave yourself (be good), help yourself
(you’re welcome to take something if you want).
ñ to emphasise the noun or the pronoun of a sentence. They usually come after the noun or pronoun
they emphasise or at the end of the sentence.
I myself made this cake. (I made it, not someone else.)
He met the Queen herself. (He met the Queen, not someone else.)

One/Ones
We use one in the singular and ones in the plural to avoid repeating the noun.
