1 activities as you can. Compare with your partner.

TAKE UP 2 7.L4 Look at the title and the pictures in the text. Where can
someone play paintball? Does it hurt if someone hits you? Do video

A HOBBY gamers take part in tournaments? Listen and read to find out.

VIDEO
A 15-year-old Jack Stamford is running in the woods.
Someone is chasing him. Suddenly, something hits him on
Paint Wars his leg! Don’t worry, he isn’t badly hurt. It’s only orange
paint. That’s because Jack Stamford is a paintballer!
Every weekend, Jack travels to a large building, field or
wood to take part in a game of paintball. He’s part of a team and they try to beat members of the
other team. Players take roles. One week he’s a spy and the next he’s a ‘Tomb Raider’
adventurer. Games can last from two hours to two days!
So how often does a paintball hit him? “A lot,” says Jack. “It’s painful sometimes, but I don’t
mind because it’s all part of the game! For me, paintballing is the best hobby of all.”

Super Gaming B
14-year-old Alex Jacobs is staring at the screen with amazing concentration. Many teens play
video games to relax in their free time, but for this talented teen gaming is much more serious.
Alex competes with gamers all over the world in tournaments. Fans also watch him play online
and he has hundreds of followers on YouTube! His favourite game is Call of Duty. “Some
people say to me: Why do you waste your life on video games?” Alex says. Luckily, his friends
and family support him and often travel to watch him play in tournaments. He’s playing in an
important one next month.
So does Alex do other things? “I enjoy hanging out with my friends at the local basketball
court,” he says, “so I’m not completely square-eyed!”

Free-time
What do you do in your free time? Stamp
collecting? Ice skating? Well here are some
leisure activities from around the world that
are a little more exciting!

Skateboarding – Kazakhstan VIDEO


Do you want a free-time activity that combines thrills, a healthy lifestyle and
the latest street fashion? Then why not try skateboarding? It’s a hobby that
improves your physical fitness as well as your concentration. In cities such
as Almaty and Astana, more and more teenagers are taking up this sport. All
you need is a skateboard and somewhere to skate. Almaty has a new
skatepark at the Central Park of Culture and Recreation.

Martial Arts – UK
What do karate, kung fu and tae kwon do have in common? They
are all East Asian martial arts which are popular pastimes for teens
in Britain. This is because they are a great way to stay fit and improve
strength and balance. Just as importantly, they help to improve self-
esteem and teach values such as discipline and respect for others. Nearly
every town in the UK has a range of martial arts schools and clubs, so
teenagers can choose the perfect one for them. Martial arts are not easy,
but they provide a great workout for the body and the mind.

our food, our host always gives us more. We leave some food to show that we are
full and that our host gave us more than enough to eat. We never leave any bread,
though. In Kazakhstan we also take off our shoes when we are visiting someone’s
home. Flowers are a good gift for the host, but you should always bring an odd

Hi! In Egypt, some of our rules are the same as yours, Nurlan. We also take off our
shoes in someone’s home, and we don’t finish all the food on our plate. We use
our right hand to eat. Giving gifts is good etiquette here, but we don’t give flowers
when we visit someone. Flowers are usually for weddings or the sick. Good gifts
include sweets or pastries. And most important of all, we always give the gift with
our right hand.

T he Industrial Revolution began in England in the 18th century and soon


spread to Western Europe and the USA. New machines could make
things much faster than before, when people worked by hand. In 1764, James
Hargreaves invented the ‘spinning jenny’ to twist thread for making cloth.
But the most important invention was James Watt’s steam engine, which he
built during the 1760s. Engineers began using steam engines to power
machines in factories and built the first steamboats and trains. These all
spinning jenny
needed coal to make steam, so the coal mining industry also grew quickly.
More and more factories and coalmines appeared, turning small towns into
big cities as people moved there to work. By 1850, half of the English
population lived in cities, in poor, overcrowded housing. Men, women and
even children worked in factories or mines. Working conditions were hard
and unhealthy, and wages were low. Conditions slowly improved,
however, and the things factories produced gave people a better standard of
living. One thing is certain though, the Industrial Revolution changed the
steam engine world forever.

Teens cannot live without the Internet and spend most of their time on it. Is this a good thing?
The Internet is a useful tool. You can find information on any topic and use it for schoolwork and projects. Also, the
Internet helps communication. You can chat or send emails to your friends wherever they are.
On the other hand, the Internet can be harmful. If you spend too many hours online or in front of the screen, it can
damage your eyes. The Internet can also distract you from real life. You may avoid hanging out with your friends
or neglect your homework.
All in all, the Internet is helpful in learning and communications. However, teens must use it sensibly.

An Unforgettable Experience
Hi guys! Greetings from Brazil! I’ve been here for two weeks now and I’m
having the time of my life. Right now, I’m sitting in a café in Manaus, the city
where two rivers join to become the Amazon River. I’m extremely tired, but
thrilled. Want to know why? I've just got back from my Amazon safari!
I’ve visited some gorgeous places, but nothing compares to this one. The safari
was by boat – the only way to get through the huge rainforest easily. We started
a week ago near the mouth of the river and slowly made our way up the
winding Amazon through mile after mile of dense rainforest. We stopped every
night to camp on the riverbank. I’ve never seen so much wildlife. Fish, birds,
monkeys and even a jaguar once, just before nightfall. I’ve never felt so alive!
It was a unique experience.
What about you guys? Have you ever had a memorable experience like that?
Kate
Comment 15:02
Hi Kate! I’ve never been to the Amazon, but after your description, I’ve put it on my list of places to visit!
I won a competition last year and the prize was a holiday in Bali. It was my first time abroad. I got to know
a lot of people and learned about a completely different culture and way of life. Travelling abroad has
changed me – I recommend it to anyone who gets the opportunity.

H ave you ever thought about the risks


you take when you travel? We have all
heard horror stories of missed flights, lost luggage, train
delays and traffic jams but have you ever heard about snakes? No? Well, here’s a
story that will make you think twice the next time you fly.
It all started one day when a passenger boarded a flight in South Korea with a little
‘something’ extra in his luggage. However, he didn’t declare what this something
extra was when he left South Korea.
When he arrived in Atlanta, USA, customs officer Christopher Hendericks checked
the man’s luggage. To his surprise he found 30 snakes in bottles! He also found
some bird specimens in the bottles, and a special liquid with the snakes and birds
to preserve them.
Hendericks said, “I’ve found snakes before but what surprised me about this case
was how many there were. At least no passengers were hurt.” Even though the
reptiles and birds were not alive, there was still a problem. As the US Fish and
Wildlife Service stated, “It’s possible that the dead snakes had poison in them. The
passenger even put scorpions in the snakes’ mouths. So, we had to check all the
animal specimens in the bottles.”
The airline did not release the name of the passenger. The police charged the man
with breaking the law twice, once for not declaring the strange contents of his
luggage and once for importing endangered species.

Geography

VIDEO
Some people call it a sea, while others call it a lake. In ancient times, people
thought it was an ocean! One thing’s for sure: the Caspian Sea is the
largest enclosed body of water on Earth. It is 371,000 km2 and it borders
five countries: Kazakhstan, Russia, Azerbaijan, Iran and Turkmenistan. The
northern part of the lake is about 6 m deep. The southern end is more
than 1,000 m. It is the world’s largest lake, but it is not a freshwater lake.
So, what exactly is the Caspian Sea? The Caspian Sea is not connected
with an ocean which makes it like a lake. However, it is very big and its
water is salty– which makes it like a sea. 130 rivers flow into the lake.
As there are no outlets, the Caspian Sea loses water only through evaporation1.
This makes its brackish water even saltier.
The Caspian Sea is an amazing natural attraction with a huge variety of
wildlife. It is home to the Caspian seal, the Caspian turtle and 90% of the
world’s sturgeons, including the beluga. This is the fish that produces caviar.
Caviar is the eggs of the sturgeon. It is very tasty but extremely expensive. Caspian seal

They are beautiful, they are amazing, but they are in danger. Rising
seas, melting ice and global warming threaten our cultural sites and
VIDEO monuments. But just as we are responsible for most of the damage,
we also have the power to save them. What are we going to do?

Stonehenge is a 5,000-year-old circle of giant stones.


Some people believe it was a place to worship the sun.
Nobody knows what it really was. 800,000 people visit
it each year! Unfortunately, all these visitors have
damaged the stones. Traffic pollution also threatens
the stones. Authorities are going to try moving busy
roads and car parks further away from the site. Will
mystical Stonehenge survive for the next 5,000 years?

These temples were built in the early 12th century. The temples
are a national symbol of Cambodia. One of them appears on
Cambodia’s flag. About 600,000 tourists visit them every year.
Wet, humid weather, vegetation and tourists are all damaging
these soft-sandstone temples. Conservationists are working
hard to protect them. Hopefully, this will help to preserve
Angkor Wat for many more years.

The number of vehicles and factories in cities is increasing and the air is becoming
more polluted every year. What can we do about it?
The problem with fumes from cars is that they poison the air and can make people
ill, especially children. Also, smoke from homes and factories makes the air dirtier
and smog levels increase. This makes life in cities very unpleasant.
There are some solutions to this problem. We can use buses and trains to travel
around the city. Some cities have already stopped cars from driving in the centre.
Also, we should move factories to the countryside and put filters in their chimneys.
In these ways, we can reduce the amount of air pollution.
To conclude, we can all help reduce the amount of air pollution. This way we can
enjoy a healthier life.

The Hound of the

A dense, white fog hung over the moor and it was drifting
slowly in our direction. Holmes was watching it.
“It’s moving towards us, Watson,” he said impatiently.
“Is that serious?” I asked.
“Very serious, indeed. It’s the one thing that could ruin my
plans. Our success and even Sir Henry's life may depend on his
coming out of the house before the fog is over the path. In half
an hour we won’t be able to see our hands in front of us.”
“Shall we move to higher ground?”
“Yes, I think it would be best,” replied Holmes.
So we moved back until we were about half a mile from the house.
Suddenly, the sound of quick steps broke the silence of the moor. Through
the fog came Sir Henry. He walked by quite close to us, but he didn’t see
us. Then, we heard another sound coming from the white bank of fog.
“Look out!” cried Holmes. “It’s coming!”
We stared into the fog, uncertain what horror was about to break
from the heart of it. Then, a dreadful shape sprung out from the
shadows. It was an enormous coal-black hound. Fire burst from its
open mouth and its eyes were burning in the darkness. With long bounds
the huge creature was leaping down the track, following our friend. Far
away on the path we saw Sir Henry looking back, his face white in the
moonlight, his hands raised in horror, staring helplessly at the thing

had 7,738 verses! Maadai-Kara had a glorious reign but as he grew old, he lost his power. One day, he
fell asleep and his sleep lasted for sixty days. When he finally woke up, his enemies
were close. He knew that when they approached even closer there would be a terrible
war. Madaai-Kara had a baby son, Kögüdei Mergen. To keep him safe, he decided to
take Kögüdei Mergen to the Black Mountain and leave him there, where a poor woman
of Altai found him. Maadai-Kara returned to fight the battle, but he lost and the new
ruler, Kara-Kula, made all of Maadai-Kara's people slaves.
On the Black Mountain, the poor woman of Altai took care of Kögüdei Mergen
Maadai-Kara until he was ready to live his life on his own. When he was old enough, Kögüdei
Mergen left the Black Mountain on his horse and rode across the land. He
crossed a poisonous sea, made it through the moving mountains, and faced
many monsters on his way until he reached the home of Kara-Kula and
defeated him in battle.
Kögüdei Mergen set all his people free from being slaves. He became
the new ruler and with the help of seven kaans, he married the
beautiful Altyn Küskü. But still, his quest was not over. He
descended into the underworld, to the land where the dead dwell.
There, he fought Erlik, the lord of the underworld and won.
Kögüdei Mergen released all the good souls from the underworld, leaving
behind only those who were guilty of committing terrible acts in life.
Kögüdei Mergen and his wife, Altyn Küskü, ruled the land in peace and
harmony for many years, bringing about a new golden age in the human Altyn
world. When their lives came to an end, Kögüdei Mergen, Altyn Küskü and Küskü
the seven great kaans became stars. If you look into the sky on a clear
Kögüdei Mergen night, you can still see them there, watching over the world.

It’s time for the annual school film festival and this year it’s sure to be
a success. The theme is science-fiction and there will be over 15 films to
choose from. Here are a few of the blockbusters that are showing.

WALL-E is a fantastic computer-animated adventure film about a


cute robot. The film was directed by Andrew Stanton. WALL-E was
designed and built by humans to collect rubbish. However, all the
humans have left the Earth because it is polluted and WALL-E is left
alone. One day he meets a search robot named EVE. She realises that
WALL-E has the solution to the planet’s problems and races back to tell
the humans. A fantastic journey across the universe begins. You’ll love it!

Terminator Genisys is a thrilling science-fiction film about a war 2


between humans and robots. It was directed by Alan Taylor, and
stars Arnold Schwarzenegger. It is an action-packed film involving
time travel. In the future, John Connor sends one of his soldiers back
in time to protect his mother. But new robot enemies are already
waiting in the past! The special effects are amazing and the cast give
a brilliant performance. The music, which was composed by Lorne
Balfe, is fantastic. Terminator Genisys is a
must-see for all science-fiction fans.
3

X-Men: Apocalypse is a science-fiction film featuring the famous


group of superheroes, the X-Men. This time they have to fight against
Apocalypse, a powerful supervillain who wants to destroy mankind.
Jennifer Lawrence leads an excellent cast that includes James McAvoy
and Michael Fassbender. It was directed by Bryan Singer. It has a
gripping plot and the sound effects make you feel that you are in the
middle of the battle. It is highly recommended. However, Hugh
Jackman’s ‘Wolverine’ character (known for his razor-sharp claws
and superhuman strength) is only in this film for a few moments!

Most parents tell their children not to play with their food. A group of musicians in
Austria obviously didn’t listen!
The Vienna Vegetable Orchestra, which was founded in 1998, uses fresh vegetables
to make music. They choose only the freshest vegetables from local markets for their
instruments, which are made an hour before the show. “Fresh vegetables produce
high-quality sounds. Plastic-packed vegetables do not make good instruments,”
they say. Each vegetable can be used in many different ways. Carrots are made into
flutes, leeks into violins and pumpkins into bass drums. Combinations of vegetables
are also used together to create instruments. For example, they can make a trumpet
by using a cucumber for the body, a carrot for the mouthpiece and a pepper for the
trumpet’s bell. The sound of each instrument depends on the quality of the
vegetables and the temperature on stage. The orchestra is constantly working on
developing new instruments.
The orchestra’s musical repertoire ranges
from classical to electronic. They play
about 20 to 30 concerts a year. This
one-of-a-kind musical group is also
environmentally-conscious since all the
instruments are bio-degradable. At the end
of each performance, the vegetables are
made into a delicious soup for the
audience to eat. The whole experience is
something that all your senses can enjoy!

Listen and read to find out.

The Dombra
VIDEO
The dombra is a beautiful string instrument. It is called the queen of Kazakh
instruments. It’s got a pear-shaped wooden body with a long neck and two
strings. Traditionally the strings were made from sinew but today nylon ones
are used. The dombra is an instrument with a long history. Many Kazakh
families have at least one person who can play it. It is usually played on its
own or used to accompany traditional songs. It sounds great as part of a
band, too. Some bands even use electric dombras to create music.

The Tin Whistle


The tin whistle is a traditional Irish wind instrument that looks like a small flute. Today it
is made from a long narrow brass tube with six holes and a plastic mouthpiece. Irish
people have played the tin whistle since ancient times and it is one of the most popular
instruments in Irish traditional music. It is also called the penny* whistle because in the
past many beggars used to play it in the streets for money. Today, it is played by many
musicians and in many styles of music. The theme song of the 1997 film Titanic, ‘My
Heart Will Go On’, features an Irish tin whistle.

Teens & Electronic Media: A dangerous combination

E lectronic media can be very useful research tools for students, giving them all the
information they need at the push of a button. However, they can cause a
student’s grades to drop. Spending many hours in front of a screen for entertainment
purposes means that you spend less time studying and doing your school work.
Another serious problem of electronic media abuse is a social one. Since you spend so
much time watching TV, surfing the Net, reading magazines or playing computer games,
you are wasting valuable time you can spend with your friends and family. Electronic
media are a great way to keep in touch with friends and family who live far away. Still
they cannot replace the benefits of communicating with people in the real world.

Tips on using electronic media safely

The United Kingdom doesn’t have only one police force. Instead,
there are 50 different forces around the country!
firefighter At the head of each force is the Chief Constable (or, in London, the Commissioner).
There are different ranks of police officers. Police constables, under the supervision
of sergeants and inspectors, do the general police work, such as patrolling the
streets, answering calls and so on. The police station is their base.
Entry to the police force is open to men and women over the age of 18 who are
physically fit and have good eyesight. Every police officer does two years of police

college courses and on-the-job training.
Police constables wear a uniform and a helmet. They do not carry a gun.

Live minutes. Does this sound familiar? Well you’re not alone. Teenagers everywhere
are trying to get just a little more sleep.
So why is this? Well, to start with, on average teenagers need to sleep an hour
the longer than adults. Also teenagers usually feel sleepy later at night than adults, and

Dream take longer to wake up in the morning – and that’s the reason why you always want
to sleep in!
But can tiredness really hurt you? Unfortunately, it can. If you don’t get enough
sleep, you find it harder to concentrate at school and might do worse in your
Sleep exams. You’re also more likely to get ill or suffer from stress. In addition, you will
eat more unhealthy food to help you stay awake. Lack of sleep can affect
More! everything.
Luckily, there’s a simple solution. Get more sleep and sleep better with a good
evening routine. Firstly, you must eat dinner early so you don’t go to bed on a full
stomach. Then, about an hour before you go to bed, you should start doing
something quiet and relaxing. Switch off your gadgets as the bright light from your
smartphone or tablet can wake your body up. Finally, go to bed and
get up at the same time every day. This helps your body find the
right time for bedtime.
If you follow these tips to get more sleep, you will boost your
performance at school while staying happy and healthy.
Remember, there are no dreams without sleep. So if you
want to follow your dreams, make sure you catch up on

Doing sports and physical activities is a great way to keep fit.
It is also important to eat a healthy, balanced diet to provide
your body with all the nutrients it needs.

• We all need energy. Foods with carbohydrate such as


bread, rice, pasta and potatoes are an excellent source
of energy. When you eat food containing carbohydrate,
your body stores the carbohydrate in your muscles. The
muscles use carbohydrate as their fuel. The more you
exercise, the more carbohydrate you need.
• Foods with protein such as meat, fish, and milk are also a
good source of energy. They also help your muscles grow
and repair themselves. Athletes eat a diet high in protein to
keep their muscles and bones strong and in good shape.

When doing sports it is important to drink enough or else you get


dehydrated. Avoid sugary drinks. Water is the best drink for those
who exercise. Remember to:
• drink a lot of water before you start exercising. 1 fruit & vegetables 4 food & drinks high in fat
• have a drink available during exercise. 2 starchy foods and/or sugar
• drink plenty of water when you have finished. 3 dairy products 5 meat, fish, eggs, etc.

I’ve had a terrible cold this week, but Mum gave me a hot lemon and
honey drink and that really helped. She says that manuka honey,
from New Zealand bees, is one of the best natural remedies. It’s

helping great for lots of ailments because it helps kill bacteria. If you
have it with milk before you go to bed, it helps you sleep. It’s
also a healthy energy boost and lots of athletes use it. The only

hand problem is that it’s rather expensive. What about you, readers?
What kind of natural remedies have you got in your country?
Mason, 14, New Zealand, 15/06, 19:52

We use honey as a natural remedy in Kazakhstan as well, but we also


have shubat. It’s fermented camel milk and you can buy it at the
supermarket. It contains lots of the vitamins and minerals that we need for
an active lifestyle. It’s good for poor circulation and can even help prevent
diabetes. Some stores sell an ice cream that they make from
shubat and horse milk. It’s delicious and it’s good for you!
It’s the perfect natural remedy.

Do you think that balloons are only for children? Then you’re wrong. Some people
use them to create fashion.
The Balloon Couture Fashion Show in China attracts designers from all over
the world. They make their special creations from hundreds of balloons – the
same ones that clowns use at children’s parties to make balloon animals.
They blow up the balloons using hand pumps and then twist them
together to create their masterpieces. The winner of the show earns the
title of ‘Fashion Designer of the Year’.
Each creation takes hours and sometimes days to make. There are
designs from evening dresses to children’s clothes and even swimwear!
Each set of clothes, whether it’s a dress and a coat, a top and a skirt or
a jacket and trousers, is one of a kind and only fits the model who wears
it. It takes a while for the models to squeeze into their squeaky
costumes, but once they’re on, they feel lighter than air! The
designs are original and really amazing, but remember – you
can only wear them once.

Why do people call Astana ‘The City of the Future’? Read through
1 to find out.

Ben’s Backpacking Blog

Astana Tian Shan Mountains

Hi, guys! I arrived in Kazakhstan a few weeks ago, and I’m having a fantastic time. This
country has got everything! Astana, my first stop, is a brand new city with shopping
centres, wide roads and stunning buildings of all shapes and sizes – no wonder people
call it ‘The City of the Future’! But a week of city life was enough for me and then it was
time to get back in touch with nature. And let me tell you, there is plenty of that here:
Kazakhstan has got some of the most impressive scenery you can find.
After a series of long bus rides across the steppe, including spending a few nights with
a host family in a yurt, I'm finally in the Tian Shan Mountains. Right now, I’m taking a
break and just sitting in the spring sunshine, enjoying the view. Tomorrow, I'm hiring a
guide and we're climbing Gora Alagordy – it’s 4,622 metres above sea level and you can
see China from the top. I can't wait – it's going to be a great adventure!

Reading
Read the author’s biography. What was Charles Dickens’ life like?
1 What is the connection between Dickens’ life and David Copperfield?

Charles Dickens (1812-1870) is one of England’s greatest writers. At a


young age, Dickens was
forced to work in a factory under terrible conditions. This difficult time shaped
his life and writings.
Dickens worked as a reporter in law courts and later for London newspapers.
In 1837, he published
his comic novel, The Pickwick Papers, which made him popular. A long line
of successful novels
followed: Oliver Twist (1837), A Christmas Carol (1843), A Tale of Two
Cities (1859) and
Great Expectations (1861). Dickens was concerned about the social problem
s of English
society. His books are also full of lively characters.
The novel David Copperfield (1849-50) is partly based on Dickens’ early life.
At this point in
the novel, David is sent away to boarding school early. This is his punishm
ent for biting his
stepfather, Mr Murdstone, who had hit him for not knowing his lesson.

We had started from Yarmouth at three o'clock in my legs were so short, it could go underneath
