SHARE YOUR PROJECT: HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENT
Most people are interested in having a long and happy life. The way we live every day, together with how we manage
our natural resources, can play a key role in enjoying a long and happy life. Having healthy habits goes beyond nutrition.
It is true that eating fats and junk food does not do any good to our health, but what else can make a difference? Studies
have shown that our personality is also a key factor: being sociable and enjoying time with friends is connected to long
life expectancy. But, be wise when choosing your friends because habits, both healthy and unhealthy, are socially
contagious. Community problems related to these social habits include obesity, smoking, drinking, and even stress.
So, look for buddies who like exercising, sleeping well, and being in a good mood.
Taking care of the environment and protecting the natural resources can also make a big difference. People live longer
in places where there is less air pollution, less contamination in rivers and oceans, and less chemicals in the soil. So, look
for places where the air, water, and soil are clean.

Listen the following history
SCRIPT
It is still unknown to most of us but myths and legends
related to giants have been told all around the world. Some
of the stories could be exaggerated such as the giant Atlas
holding the planet on his shoulders but there has been
some evidence of extremely tall people found. Besides oral
tradition that tells about the existence of those beings,
there are some written or pictured evidence. Even the Holy
Bible talks about a race of giants that scared some peoples
from Israel and the story of David vs. Goliath, is broadly
known. Some other written registers talk about a race of
giants that lived in the Patagonia, as well as in Peru and
others in Africa. Some anthropologists discovered caves
with skeletons and skulls that were astonishing tall and big
in many places such as China or United States. It is said
that some scientists did not let the evidence to be shown.
Between 1800 and 1900 about a thousand reports of giant
skeletons found in north America made people become
curious about the topic. In spite of it there is not solid
evidence yet that can really prove their existence.
Some legends say a few giants were considered
“destructive beings” that would cause fear because they
ate people. Some others like the Patagonian were
described as gentle.
Underline the correct statement:
• Some evidence of giants has been found in
a. Europe, Africa, and North America.
b. Africa, North America, and South America.
c. North America, South America and Europe.
• People became curious about the existence of
giants
a. From the 1800s to the 1900s.
b. Before the 1800s.
c. After the 1900s.
