ngữ chỉ thời gian, nơi chốn, nguyên nhân, kết quả, mục đích,...

- Mệnh đề quan hệ không xác định là loại mệnh đề dùng để thêm thông tin cho danh từ hoặc đại từ trong câu, mà không

The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) has issued a warning about the future of the world's natural World Heritage sites.
It says half of the sites are at risk from different industries. The WWF warned that harmful industrial activities such as
mining or drilling for oil are endangering the future of 114 of 229 sites. Other factors adding to the risk include illegal
logging and unsustainable water use. All of these are in addition to the damage being done by climate change. The WWF
says the sites affected include Australia's Great Barrier Reef, the Grand Canyon National Park in the USA, and China's
Sichuan Giant Panda Sanctuaries, which are home to more than 30 per cent of the world's endangered pandas.
The director of the UNESCO World Heritage Centre said it was up to everyone to protect these sites. She said:
"World Heritage is humankind's common heritage, and the responsibility for its conservation is shared by everyone." She
welcomed government efforts at reducing what they take from the Earth. However, the WWF said that more than 11
million people worldwide rely on World Heritage sites for food, water, shelter jobs and medicine, and that non-stop
development could harm livelihoods as well as the environment.

A theme park in France has started a new and environmentally-friendly way of dealing with litter. It has trained six
"intelligent" rooks to pick up rubbish. Rooks are members of the crow family. The birds will work at the Puy du Fou theme
park in west France. They have been trained to pick up cigarette ends, paper and other things thrown on the ground. The
birds pick up the litter and put it into a special trash can. This delivers bird food as a reward. The more litter the birds put in
the trash can, the more food they get.
The head of the theme park explained why it is using the crows. He said there were several reasons. He said: "The
goal is not just to clean up ... but also to demonstrate that nature itself can teach US to take care of the environment." Crows
are very sociable and intelligent birds. They may be as smart as a seven-year-old child. The theme park head said: "In an
affectionate, supportive atmosphere, they like to communicate with humans and establish a relationship through play." The
28
crows are quick workers. They can fill a bucket with rubbish in nearly 45 minutes.

The teddy bear is a child's toy, a nice soft stuffed animal suitable for cuddling. It is, however, a toy with an
interesting history behind it.
Theodore Roosevelt, or Teddy as he was commonly called, was the president of the United States from 1901 to
1909. He was an unusually active man with varied pastimes, one of which was hunting. One day the president was invited
to take part in a bear hunt; and as Teddy was President, his hosts wanted to ensure that he caught a bear. A bear was
captured, and tied to a tree; however, Teddy, who really wanted to hunt a bear, refused to shoot the bear and, in fact,
demanded that the bear be extricated from the ropes; that is, he demanded that the bear be set free.
The incident attracted a lot of attention among journalists. First a cartoon drawn by Clifford K. Berryman to make
32
fun of this situation appeared in the Washington Post, and the cartoon was widely distributed and reprinted throughout the
country. Then toy manufacturers began producing a toy bear which they called "teddy bear". The teddy bear became the
most widely recognised symbol of Roosevelt's presidency.

At the University of Kansas art museum, scientists tested the effect of different colored walls on two groups of
visitors to an exhibit of paintings. For the first group the room was painted white; for the second group, dark brown.
Movement of each group was followed by electrical equipment under the carpet. The experiment showed that those who
entered the dark brown room walked more quickly, covered more area, and spent less time in the room than people in the
white one. Dark brown made people more active, but the activity ended sooner. Not only the choice of colors but also the
general appearance of a room affects those inside. Another experiment presented people with photographs of faces whose
40
energy was to be commented. Three groups of people were used; each was shown the same photos, but each group was in a
different room. The first group was in an ordinary room and the second group was in a nice office. The third was in a
tastefully designed living room with carpeting. Results showed that the people in the beautiful room tend to give higher
marks to the facts than those in the ugly room did. Other studies suggest that the students do better on tests taken in
comfortable room than in ordinary-looking or ugly rooms.

The water we drink and use is running short in the world. We all have to learn how to stop wasting our limited water.
One of the steps we should take is to find ways of reusing it. Experiments have already been done in this field.
Today in most large cities, fresh water is used only once, then it runs into waste system. But it is possible to pipe the
used water to a purifying factory. There it can be filtered and treated with chemicals so that it can be used again, just as it
were fresh from a spring.
But even if every large city purified and reused its water, we still would not have enough. Then we could turn to the
44
oceans. All we would have to do to make use of the seawater on earth is to get rid of the salt. This process is called
desalination, and it is already in use in many parts of the world.

Although Asia has a rich cultural heritage, with written records extending back some 4,000 years, libraries were
slow to emerge in the region. Temples and centers of religious learning established most of the earliest Asian libraries that
had sizeable collections. These institutions developed in the period that roughly corresponds to the European Middle Ages,
from about the 5th century to the 15th century. At the same time, court libraries grew to coexist with religious libraries in
most Asian countries. Use of these libraries was restricted to court officials or to religious leaders. It was not until the early
20th century that Asian libraries became accessible to a wide public, and for the most part, public library systems did not
emerge until after World War II ended in 1945.
In general, Asian libraries have been slow to automate their operations, although many libraries in China, India,
48
Japan, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan do have computerized systems. In the late 1990s most computer use in Asia
was limited to microcomputer management of circulation. However, the public has access to online catalogs in increasing
numbers of Asian libraries, particularly in documentation centers and national libraries. The high cost of international
telephone lines and the slow delivery of documents from overseas have inhibited more rapid growth of online searching.

Scandinavia has ranked as the best place in the world to raise children. The Nordic region holds the top three places
on the US News & World Report's list of "The Best Countries for Raising Kids" in 2020. The list has been compiled
annually since 2016 in collaboration with the University of Pennsylvania. Denmark topped the list, with Sweden a close
runner-up, and neighbour Norway edging out Canada for third place. The 2020 listings will come as little surprise as the
three nations also ranked highest on the list for 2019. A spokeswoman explained: "These countries tend to have generous
paternal leave and maternal leave, offer free preschool and have good overall public education systems."
The listing was released as part of the annual "Best Countries" list. This survey adopted "a global perceptions-based"
approach in examining data and attitudes. It used research from the World Bank, as well as the opinions of 20,000 people in
52
the Americas, Asia, Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Researchers tested countries against 65 different metrics, or what
the researchers called "country attributes". These included income equality, well-developed public education and healthcare
systems, human rights, gender equality, safety, family friendliness and levels of perceived happiness. Switzerland once
again topped the "Best Countries" list, followed by Canada and Japan.

While few people claim to be addicted to it, ice cream is certainly a great favourite among people of all ages in many
parts of the world. Although it is commonly believed to have originated in China, and has long been associated with Italian
manufacturers, it doesn't actually come from either of those countries. Ice cream originated when chemists in the Middle
East worked out that adding salt to water reduces its freezing point, making it possible to cool it below its normal freezing
point without turning it to ice.
60
Folklore also holds that Nero, the Roman Emperor, invented water ice during the first century AD when he sent
slaves up in the mountains and made them pass buckets of snow, hand over hand, to his banquet hall, where it was mixed
with honey and wine. However, there is nothing to prove that tale.
Well, one way or another, the method for making this delicacy found its way into Europe. The first book to mention
it was published in Italy in 1530. At that time, water ices were typically served by monarchs and other important people as a
special treat on great occasions. The British are supposed to have been responsible for coming up with the idea of using
cream in their ices instead of plain water, and thus ice cream as we know it today was born.

The first vehicle that resembled the bicycle was put together in 1645 in France by Jean Theson. It was, however, a
four-wheeled machine. A two-wheeled contraption was invented in Germany in about 1816. To ride it, the passenger sat on
a seat and propelled himself by running on the ground.
The two-wheeled bicycle as we know it today was invented in Dumfriesshire, Scotland, in 1839 by a blacksmith
named Kirkpatrick Macmillan. It had a steerable 30-inch front wheel and a 40-inch rear wheel. This bicycle had no pedals
or chain-activated gears. There were, instead, two foot pedals attached to rods that connected to the back wheel. The
64
alternate movement of rods on either side propelled the bicycle.
Unfortunately for Macmillan, his invention never became popular. It was left to a French father-and-son team, Pierre
and Ernest Michaux, to build the bicycle from which the present popularity of the vehicle is derived. By 1865 the Michaux
family was producing 400 bicycles a year.

When another old cave is discovered in the south of France, it is not usually news. Rather, it is an ordinary event.
Such discoveries are so frequent these days that hardly anybody pays heed to them.
However, when the Lascaux cave complex was discovered in 1940, the world was amazed. Painted directly on its
walls were hundreds of scenes showing how people lived thousands of years ago. The scenes show people hunting animals,
such as bison or wild cats. Other images depict birds and, most noticeably, horses, which appear in more than 300 wall
images, by far outnumbering all other animals.
Early artists drawing these animals accomplished a monumental and difficult task. They did not limit themselves to
the easily accessible walls but carried their painting materials to spaces that required climbing steep walls or crawling into
narrow passages in the Lascaux complex. Unfortunately, the paintings have been exposed to the destructive action of water
and temperature changes, which easily wear the images away. Because the Lascaux caves have many entrances, air
movement has also damaged the images inside. Although they are not out in the open air, where natural light would have
destroyed them long ago, many of the images have deteriorated and are barely recognizable. To prevent further damage, the
site was closed to tourists in 1963, 23 years after it was discovered.

Opononi, New Zealand, was a quiet little town by the sea. Most of the men worked as fishermen. In the summer of
1955, they noticed that a strange sea animal was following their boats. At first the men thought it must be a shark. But the
animal came closer and closer to the boats. Before long everyone could see it was a dolphin. One of the fishermen named
her Opo - after the town.
At first, Opo was shy, as many wild dolphins are. But she was curious, too. Every day she swam closer to the boats.

made from oil, coal and natural gas. We are using up these things so fast that the Earth's supplies may run out. Because of

Things made from plastic can be useful for people but bad for the planet. Some kinds of plastic can last for a long time
without wearing out, and can be difficult to get rid of when they are not needed. They can stay in rubbish dumps for
hundreds of years. Giaoandethitienganh.info sưu tầm

again to make new products. Some kinds of plastic can be melted down and used to make new things such as bags and

While the western New Year is celebrated to some degree in Korea today, the traditional Korean or Lunar New

Hanbok. The family-oriented theme continues throughout the festival, and a number of other customs are practiced during

Food Firsts
How much do you know about the history of some of your favorite foods? Do you know when people in England started
cooking curry dishes? Do you know in which country pizzas or hamburgers were first made? The facts might surprise you.
Many people think the English found out about curry from people in India in the 1600s. In reality wealthy English
people were eating dishes made with curry spices hundreds of years before British ship traveled to India. Cooks of wealthy
English families during the time of King Richard I were making curry dishes, and in fact, the word “curry" can be found in
an English language cookbook as far back as 1377.
As for pizza, this dish was probably first made in Persia (what is now Iran). The Persians were eating round, flat bread
with cheese in the 500s. That was nearly 1,000 years before pizza became popular in Naples, Italy!
Finally, let's look at the truth behind hamburgers. Many people think hamburgers are an American food. However,
according to some stories, hamburgers came from Hamburg, Germany. A German named Otto Kuasw created the first
hamburger in 1891. Four years later, German sailors introduced hamburgers to Americans.
Where foods come from isn’t nearly as important as how they taste; as long as they are delicious! So, go get some of
your favorite food and dig in.
