Matt’s top three films

1 Avatar

I don’t usually enjoy fantasy films. I don’t like The Lord of the Rings or Star Wars. But Avatar is
different. It is a fantasy film and an action film and it has got amazing special effects.

2 Batman: The Dark Knight

I often go to the cinema and watch films, but I hardly ever see a great film. Batman: The Dark
Knight is fantastic. In the film, the Welsh film star Christian Bale plays Batman and the Australian
star Heath Ledger plays the Joker. The Joker can’t stand Batman and wants to kill him.

3 Shrek 2

My sister loves animated films and her favourite film is Toy Story. I don’t usually like animated films
but I sometimes watch them when they are very funny. I prefer comedies. Shrek 2 is great because
it is a comedy and an animated film. There are three main characters in the Shrek films – Shrek,
Donkey and Princess Fiona. I really like Shrek but I prefer Donkey. He is my favourite character.

The Australian Adventurer

Australia is an enormous continent. It is about 4,000 kilometers from east to west. But, in 1912,
one man decided to travel across the continent... by bicycle! The man’s name was Francis
Birtles. He was born in Melbourne, Australia in 1881 and he always loved adventure. When he
was a young man, he bought a bicycle and started cycling. He rode round Australia twice and
became the first person to ride a bike across the continent from west to east.

Francis became very popular and a lot of newspapers wrote stories about him. As a result, in
1926, a car manufacturing company gave him a car and asked him to drive it across Australia. He
completed this amazing journey in eight days and 13 hours, and the car company sold a lot of

Later in his life, Francis continued to have adventures. He explored the north of Australia and
discovered gold and he made two films about his adventures. When he died, in 1941, Francis
Birtles was a very rich man.

The mountain climber

Junko Tabei is a mountain climber with some amazing stories to tell. She is famous because she
was the first woman to climb to the top of Mount Everest.

Motivate! 2 Test Material, © Macmillan Publishers Limited, 2013


In 1975, a Japanese newspaper and a Japanese TV station decided to send a team of Japanese
women to Nepal to climb Everest. They advertised for climbers and hundreds of women applied. In
the end, they chose 15 climbers, and Junko Tabei was one of them. The women spent a long
time in training before they left Japan and travelled to Nepal. They found nine local Sherpa people
to guide them and then they started on their climb. They camped at 6,000 metres, but in the
middle of the night an avalanche came down the mountain. Fortunately, nobody died but they
were all very scared by the experience. Twelve days later, Junko arrived at the top of the mountai n
and made history.

Today, Junko lives in Japan. She often goes climbing but she doesn’t go up very high mountains
these days. In fact, she spends more time working on environmental projects. She wants to
protect the natural habitat of Mount Everest and other mountains.

The Abominable Snowman

In 1921, while he was leading an expedition up Mount Everest, the explorer Charles Howard-
Bury suddenly found some unusual footprints. At first, the explorer believed they were from an
enormous wolf, but when he asked his local Tibetan guides to look at the footprints, they had
a very different idea. ‘Metoh-k angmi!’ they shouted.

Howard-Bury didn’t know what they were saying, but later when the expedition returned to
Darjeeling in northern India, a journalist interviewed the Tibetan guides and translated their
words into the ‘abominable’ (which means ‘very horrible’) snowman. It wasn’t a very good
translation, but it didn’t matter. The legend of the ‘abominable snowman’ was born.

In the Himalayan countries of Tibet and Bhutan, people already believed in the ‘snowman’.
They called it ‘metoh-k angmi’ or the ‘yeti’ and they told stories about meeting the ‘snowman’
while they were hunting.

In the 1950s, people from the west led expeditions into the mountains to try to find an
‘abominable snowman’. They saw hundreds of strange footprints and sometimes saw an
unusual-looking creature in the distance, but they never caught one. The ‘snowman’ remains a
mystery.

1 Who discovered the footprints on the 1921 expedition?


a) one of the guides b) the expedition leader
2 When did the European explorers find out what ‘metoh-k angmi’ meant?
a) in the Tibetan mountains b) in an Indian town
3 When did Tibetan people start believing in the ‘abominable snowman’?
a) before the expedition b) after the expedition
4 When did westerners start looking for the ‘abominable snowman’?
a) in the 1920s b) in the 1950s
5 What did the western explorers see?
a) perhaps they saw a ‘yeti’ b) they definitely saw a ‘yeti’

Pocket money in Britain

In Britain, children are getting more pocket money than in the past. In fact, on average, parents
are paying them about £7 every week – that’s more than €8.

Families today are richer than in the past so parents give their children more pocket money.
However, a lot of parents don’t think it is a good idea to give children money when their children
don’t do any jobs about the house. As a result, these days, children help around the house
more than children 30 years ago.

There are a lot of ways for British school children to earn pocket money. The most popular ways
include tidying their bedrooms and doing the washing up. A smaller number of children earn

pocket money by taking the dog for a walk or feeding the family’s pets.

Some parents give their children pocket money for working hard at school or for being polite
when they visit grandparents. However, some people don’t think this is a good idea. They think
that being polite and working hard are two things everybody should do should do and that
children don’t have the right to earn money for doing these things.

So, what about you? How do you earn your pocket money?

My first job

When I was 14, I got my first job. I started doing a newspaper round. It’s one of the most popular
first jobs for boys and girls in England and you must be at least 13 years old before you can do it.
In my job, I got up at six o’clock in the morning every Saturday and Sunday, went to the
newspaper shop, and packed a big bag with newspapers. The man in the shop always made me
a cup of tea. Then I delivered newspapers to a lot of houses. I earned £5 an hour and it took three
hours to do the newspaper round on Saturday, and four hours on Sunday because my bag was
heavier and my round was longer.

Doing a newspaper round isn’t easy. You must get up very early and you mustn’t be lazy or
unreliable. You should also be fit and strong. It’s hard but it’s also fun. I don’t do a paper round
anymore, but my younger sister Sally is going to do my old paper round in the summer. I’m
stronger than her but she’s fitter than me, so I think she’s going to be a great newspaper delivery
girl!

2 The writer worked ____ when he was a delivery boy.
a) on weekdays b) at weekends

The first computer games

Motivate! 2 Test Material, © Macmillan Publishers Limited, 2013


We have played computer games for about sixty years, and nowadays games are very
sophisticated. But did you know that the first computer game was a version of noughts and
crosses? It was in black and white and it was very simple. A scientist called A.S. Douglas
designed it in 1952 while he was studying at Cambridge University.

In 1962, an American computer engineer created ‘SpaceWar!’ His name was Steve Russell and
it took him and his team of computer programmers 200 hours to design the programm e. Steve
loved reading science-fiction books so he wanted to invent the first science fiction game. If you
play the game today, it will seem very simple and boring, but in 1962 it was an amazing
invention.

Nowadays, most young people enjoy playing computer games at home on their computers or
consoles, but in the 1970s and 1980s teenagers didn’t have computers. They went to arcades to
play the new, exciting computer games.

In the future, computer games will inevitably change. Major companies are spending a lot of
money on developing very realistic games, and some games are going to have so many levels
that you will never finish the game!

1 The first computer game was ____ .


a) not in colour b) quite sophisticated
2 The designer of the first computer game was ____ .
a) an American engineer b) a university student
3 Steve Russell worked ____ to create ‘SpaceWar!’
a) with other people b) by himself
4 In the 1970s, young people ____ played computer games at home.
a) never b) often
5 In the future, computer games will ____ .

catch and film wild animals to take back to zoos and safari parks in Britain.

Since then, Sir David Attenborough has made a lot of TV series. The most well-known was a
series called ‘Life’. He has also written best-selling books and supported environmental
charities. And he hasn’t retired. If he continues to have good health, he will make a new TV
