The novels of Charles Dickens

Many people believe that Charles Dickens was the greatest English novelist
ever. He lived in the nineteenth century and wrote many novels and short
stories. Some of these have been made into films and TV series.
His most famous novel is probably Oliver Twist. It is the story of a young
orphan who runs away from an orphanage and is tricked into joining a band of
thieves in London. Most people know this story even if they haven’t read it,
because it was made into a very famous musical and film which has been seen
all over the world.
David Copperfield is another very well-known Dickens story. It is based on the
author’s own life, and tells the story of a poor boy who had a hard childhood
but after many difficulties became a very successful writer.
Great Expectations is another dramatic novel where a poor boy becomes a
rich man and leaves his village. But the young Pip does not find success
through his own hard work but because a mysterious person gives him
money. However, in the end Pip loses his fortune but finds something more
important.
Almost all of Dickens’ novels take place during the 19th century, when
Dickens lived. They show the terribly difficult lives poor people had at that
time. One exception is A Tale of Two Cities which is about the French
revolution, which happened in the century before Dickens was born. It tells
the story of two men who look exactly the same, one good and one bad. The
good man is going to be killed by French revolutionaries but changes places
with the other. So the bad man dies and the good one is allowed to live.

5 Read the text about insects. Are the statements true (T) or

My pet’s an insect!
It sounds strange to many of us, but if you are Japanese this might be true.
In most of Asia, insects are often thought to make good pets. In Western
cultures, people do keep insects as pets, but this is often to do with a school
project. For example, school children are often asked to catch caterpillars, and
put them in a jar with some cabbage leaves, so they can observe them until
they change into beautiful butterflies.
The main problem with having an insect as a pet is that they are hard to
relate to. You can talk to a dog, a cat, a parrot or even a hamster, and
perhaps even get them to do some tricks that you can teach them, but being
friends with insects is just impossible. Nor can you cuddle or stroke them. On
the one hand they are very fragile: you could easily kill or damage them if you
handle them at all. And, on the other hand, touching an insect can be
dangerous. Many of them can bite or sting you and in this way inject poison
into your body, leading to illness or even death. This doesn’t always put
people off. There are people who keep poisonous tarantula spiders, although it
is extremely dangerous and in some places illegal.
With all these problems, it might seem surprising that insect pets are popular
anywhere. But there can be benefits to keeping an insect as a pet. Some
insects make beautiful sounds. Singing crickets are popular in Asian countries,
and not just for their voice. They are used like guard dogs. If a burglar enters
the house at night, the cricket stops singing and this wakes the family up.

1 Teachers often ask children to keep insects. ___
2 Insects can do tricks. ___

GREAT EXPLORERS
While many people think Christopher Columbus is the greatest explorer of all
time, there are many other great explorers who travelled to distant lands and
brought back interesting new discoveries to their own countries.
Other explorers followed Columbus, including Hernan Cortez. Cortez was born
in the Spanish town of Medellin and studied law. However, he didn’t become a
lawyer but decided to join the army, where he was chosen to lead a military
expedition into Mexico. Spain wanted to capture the country and rule it. The
Aztec people, who lived in Mexico, had their own ancient religion and culture.
Under their strong Emperor they fought hard, but eventually Cortez won. After
his expedition, Cortez returned to Spain and lived in the city of Seville until
the end of his life.
Not all explorers went back home as heroes. One of the unlucky ones who
didn’t was the Scot, Mungo Park. After finishing university, he took a job as a
ship’s doctor and travelled to Africa. Later, he was chosen to lead an
expedition and became famous because of his discovery of the River Niger.
Unfortunately, on their second expedition to Africa, Park’s team were attacked
by local people and Park himself was drowned in the African river that had
made him famous.
Another, earlier, explorer who did not come home to fame was an Italian from
Venice called Marco Polo. When he was fifteen, he was taken to Asia by his
two uncles. He travelled through a large part of Asia for the Mongol
emperor Kublai Khan, taking the Khan’s daughter to Persia to be
married, and passing through Indonesia, Sri Lanka and India. Marco
Polo wrote a book which also describes China, but some people think
that he was only telling other travellers’ stories about it and pretending
he had experienced them himself.

So you think you’re lucky!

Last week I won a car in a competition and I thought I was the luckiest man in
the world. But I’m not. Thanks to my luck, I can drive around in a nice new
vehicle, but some people actually owe their lives to their good luck.
That same morning I read of a number of amazing escapes. The first one
happened in the South of England. A group of children were travelling on an
open-top bus which was hit by a sports car. The children were thrown from
the top of the bus. Fortunately, they landed on soft grass and no one was
hurt. The driver of the sports car was arrested for dangerous driving.
In another bus accident a woman in her seventies slipped and fell under a bus
as it drove away from a bus stop. The bus ran over her, but luckily she was
not seriously hurt, because the wheels didn’t hit her head.
Meanwhile, in Germany a man and his wife few their small aircraft into some
high electric wires. However, it didn’t crash to the ground. Instead, the plane
stayed stuck in the wires. All the couple had to do was stay there, hanging ten
metres above the ground, until firemen came with special equipment to
rescue them.
Then there was the Australian plane which was flying at 9,000 metres when a
large hole appeared in the side of the plane. The pilot stayed calm and quickly
brought the plane down to 3,000 metres, where it was possible for the
passengers to breathe normally. When the plane landed in Manila and they
saw the size of the hole, some of the passengers were so scared they felt sick.
When I read these stories I realized winning a car wasn’t so important.

while they are on holiday. You will have to spend at least six hours every day
in the client’s house so people don’t think it is empty, and you will need to
sleep there at least three times per week. You will also need to do a little work
in the house, looking after plants and keeping the rooms clean.
COULD YOU BE A HOME SETTLER?
If you know your town well and are a well-organized, friendly person you
could be perfect for this new opportunity. As a ‘home settler’ your clients are
people who are just moving to the area and your job is to show them
everything they need to know about living there. You will also be expected to
help them organize schools for their children, and introduce them to local
people.
DREAM MAKER
Could you help someone to appear in a movie, or play tennis on the Centre
Court at Wimbledon? When you work as a dream maker your customers will
tell you their greatest wish, and all you have to do is make it happen for
them. You will need to be good at finding information on the Internet and at
planning and organizing things.

Now all my children have left home, I have lots of spare time. I’ve lived here
for years and know everyone, so I have plenty of friends, whom I see a lot.
But it would be nice to have a part-time job.
CHRISTIAN (22)
I work in a bank but I hate it. My life was much better when I was at school. I
used to love doing projects – using my computer to get information about
things and writing about them. At school I was the secretary of the football
team and looked after the money for the film club. But the best thing I did
was arranging the annual concert.
RICK (18)
I have to admit I’m a bit lazy, so the best job for me would be one where I
didn’t have to work too hard. Before my brother started school I used to look
after him while my Mum went to work. I think I’m a good babysitter, but
people prefer girls for that job.
MAXINE (19)
I really believe that the way you look is important. My friends say I’m fashion
mad! I also like good food and drink. I love all the smells of the kitchen and
I’m learning to recognize wines just by smelling them. I make a little money
writing magazine articles on fashion, food and wine.

Internet shopping – how to get the best deal.

Internet shopping is becoming more popular every day. Some men like it
because they hate going to shops. And, although many women love walking
around shops and trying on clothes, they too are changing their shopping
habits and buying on-line. For one thing, they realize that the best prices are
found on the Internet. And shopping on-line means you don’t have to park the
car, which is very helpful when car parks can be expensive.
There are other advantages, too. Nobody tries to sell you something you don’t
want to buy, and you never meet an impolite shop assistant in an on-line
shop. Sometimes badly designed websites can be annoying to use, but most
sites are well thought out, making Internet shopping a relaxing and pleasant
experience.
For most people the main reason they buy from online shops is that they get
the very best deals there. Price comparison sites will tell you where to get the
cheapest prices for electronic products, jewellery, or anything else you want.
Are there no problems with on-line shopping, then? Of course there are.
Although you can read all about what you are buying, you can’t see it or touch
it. So you could buy something and find it’s not what you want. One way to
solve this problem is to visit a traditional shop to choose what you want, and
then to buy it on the Internet. This is a very popular trick.
Another problem with Internet shopping is that the goods you have bought do
not always arrive quickly. Websites often promise next-day delivery, but you
find you have to wait two weeks for your new TV or computer. And then, what
happens if your new TV or computer doesn’t work? It’s a lot harder to take
goods bought on the Internet back for exchange or refund.
What seems to worry most people about shopping on-line is the fear that they
will be cheated. They hear so many stories of people sending money and
never getting what they bought, or they worry that their bank information will
be stolen. This does happen, although not as much as media reports suggest.

Key figures in black American history

A
People often think of John Brown as one of the first Americans to lead the
fight against slavery in the USA. All his life he tried to help slaves and
eventually he decided that he could only stop slavery by using violence. In
1859, he led a group of men who attacked and took hold of buildings where
the army kept a large number of guns at Harper’s Ferry. The US army took
them back two days later and Brown was caught and killed. Most people
remember him because of the well-known American song ‘John Brown’s
Body’.
B
Medgar Evers was a man who fought for the rights of black people all his life.
In 1946, he went to vote in the elections with his brother, but 200 white
people stopped them from voting. He worked in the civil rights movement
until he was murdered in 1963. His murderer, a man called Beckwith, went to
court, but some witnesses told lies and he was set free. Eventually, in 1991,
Beckwith was taken to court again and found guilty of murder.
C
James Meredith is famous for being the first black man to study at the
University of Mississippi, from 1960 to 1964. While he was there he
experienced many problems because of his colour. As a result he began
protesting about the treatment of black people. While he was taking part in a
protest march in 1966, he was shot and injured. Meredith continued his
studies, but he left the civil rights movement and worked for many years in
the financial industry. Later he became interested in politics again and
became a Republican.
D
Martin Luther King is probably the best known of all the people involved in
fighting for black people’s rights in America. He had learned about what
Mahatma Ghandi was doing in India. Ghandi believed that fighting was not a
good way to protest and led non-violent demonstrations throughout India. By
leading peaceful protests and giving speeches, King became the central figure
in the civil rights movement. Martin Luther King was murdered in 1968, but
he is still a hero to all black people in the US and all over the world.

Yes, texting (txtn) really is great and not hard to do. Text is the form of
language used mostly by teenagers when they send short messages on their
mobile phones or chat on the Internet to their friends. While some people
think that it is destroying the English language, experts are more and more
convinced that the skills used in writing and understanding texts can be very
useful in learning foreign languages, so maybe it is not a bad thing. As well as
texting being a cool thing to do, teenagers think that it keeps their messages
private. They believe that if their parents read their texts, they just won’t
understand them, but text language is not that hard to understand. So
parents can often read it and work out what was said quite easily.
There are four basic kinds of text words.
The first of these are the single letters which sound like words. The letter ‘b’
for example can be used as the word ‘be ’. Other letters that work this way
are ‘c’ (see), ‘r’ (are), ‘y’ (why), and ‘u’ (you).
The second kind are numbers which sound like words or parts of words, like'8'
for ‘ate’ or ‘2’ ‘for' ‘to' or ‘too’. You can join these numbers with letters to
make other words, like ‘m8’ for 'mate' or '2nite' for 'tonight'.
The third kind of word is made just by not using vowels, so that ‘text’
becomes ‘txt’. You might think this would be hard to understand, but most
people can recognize almost any word even when all the vowels are taken
out. Thts rlly gd, isn’t it?
The last kind of text word is more difficult. This kind of word is made up of the
first letter of each word in a phrase - ‘imo’ for example means ‘in my opinion’.
It can be hard to guess what the letters stand for, though. You could think ‘fyi’
means ‘fill your imagination when in fact it means ‘for your information. guess
the meaning fro m the rest of the message, just as you can sometimes with a
new word in a foreign language.
I hope you can see that texting in English is not so hard. Anyone can do it. Y
