The Arctic polar bear, as a hunter, is large and tough, and has an extraordinarily
strong physique. With a large body, this bear is one of the largest in the world. Large hairy
claws that are long and sharp, as well as large and strong canine teeth, are the main
weapons in carrying out effective hunting techniques. Their thick white hair protects them
from extreme temperatures. In its hunting technique, the Arctic polar bear carefully closes
the seal hole, waiting patiently before attacking its prey with its deadly claws and canine
teeth. After successfully finding its prey, the bear then drags it and then consumes it.

2.1. Chipmunks-members of the rodent family

A. Appearance
1. Small mammal-five to six inches
long, four-inch bushy tail
2. Color-reddish brown, stripes on
back and side
3. Cheek pouches to carry food
B. Food berries, seeds, nuts, insects
C. Habitat hides in woods
1.A place to hide
D. Hibernation-winter
1.Survival strategy
E. Reproduction-two litters yearly,
three to five young in litter
F. Habits
1. Sit upright often
2. Raise tail straight up, make
chirping noises when agitated
3. Scurry busily

Squirrels, which belong to the rodent family, and small mammals measure five to six
inches long with a distinctive bushy four-inch tail. Their reddish brown fur, decorated with
distinctive stripes on their backs, makes them easy to recognize. They have cheek pouches
that function as storage for berries, seeds, nuts, and insects that are their food. These living
creatures prefer forest habitats, where they hide. Squirrels hibernate during the winter
months, as a survival strategy. Amazingly, they reproduce twice a year, giving birth to three
to five young in each birth. Often observed while sitting upright, the squirrel displays a
unique gesture by holding its tail straight up and making chirping sounds when agitated.
Their busy and hurried movements contribute to the lively atmosphere of the forest area.

League pennant, 1934
2. Greenberg batting 336 in cleanup
position
3. Greenberg, not to offend Jewish
parents, refused to play on Jewish
holiday Yom Kippur

B. Effect
1. Detroit Tigers lost vital game

Hank Greenberg, a famous baseball player, played a key role in the American League
pennant race in 1934 with the Detroit Tigers. In an effort to win the race, Greenberg made an
impressive achievement by achieving a stroke average of 336 in the cleaning position.
However, his decision to refuse to play on the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur, out of respect
for his religion, had an unexpected effect. The Detroit Tigers lost an important game, but
Greenberg received great appreciation from his teammates who respected him for his ethical
decisions. In fact, Edgar Guest expressed his admiration through a poem detailing
Greenberg's devotion to his religion.
4.I.Joel, age 15, wanted something changed
A. 1990-watched TV program
1. Tuna fishing boats trap dolphins in
tuna nets
2. Since 1960,10 million dolphins killed
in tuna nets

B. Joel help from science teacher and

students
1. Discover large U.S. canning
corporation owns biggest tuna
wholesaler
2. Decide to write postcards to three
company executives at their homes
3. Each student mailed six cards daily

C. Results
1. Executives agree to buy tuna only
from fishermen who use special nets
to protect dolphins
2. Other wholesalers also agree

Joel, a 15-year-old teenager, felt compelled to make a change when he learned about the
impact tuna poaching had on dolphins. Watching a 1990 TV program featuring a tuna fishing
boat that accidentally caught dolphins in a tuna net, Joel was shaken by the fact that since
1960, ten million dolphins had died as a result of this practice. In his efforts to change this
situation, Joel enlists the help of his science teacher and colleagues. They worked together
to identify large canning companies in the US that were the largest tuna wholesalers.
Without hesitation, Joel decided to write postcards to three company executives, and every
student at his school together sent six cards every day. The results were very satisfying:
executives agreed to only buy tuna from fishermen who use special nets to protect dolphins.
Even other wholesalers are following suit, marking positive change inspired by the small
decisions and actions of a teenager named Joel.

5.I. Two possible categories of African mammals: the herbivore and the carnivore
A. Herbivore, plant-eating
1. Kinds: elephants, giraffes, zebras,
wildebeests, gazelles, and
antelopes
2. Food: plants, roots, leaves,
grasses, seeds, overripe fruit
3. Habits: travel in herds for
protection, always alert to danger
B. Carnivore, flesh-eating
1. Kinds: lions, cheetahs, leopards,
hyenas, jackals, wild dogs
2. Food: gazelles, zebras, jackals,
lion cubs, snakes, birds, domestic
dogs, small prey of all kinds,
porcupines
3. Habits: live in family groups,
unafraid of other animals

In Africa, mammals can be categorized into two main groups: herbivores, plant eaters,
and carnivores, meat eaters. Herbivores include elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest,
gazelles and antelopes, whose diet consists of plants, roots, leaves, grass, seeds and
overripe fruit. In everyday life, herbivores tend to travel in groups in search of protection,
always alert to potential danger. On the other hand, carnivores such as lions, cheetahs,
leopards, hyenas, jackals, and lying dogs prey on gazelles, zebras, jackals, lion cubs,
snakes, birds, domestic dogs, and various other small prey. These carnivores live in family
groups and tend not to be afraid of other animals around them.

6.I. Misunderstandings between English and North American native peoples, starting
seventeenth century
A. English settlers
1. Given rights to use land through
treaties
2. Cleared land
3. Built houses and barns
4. Felt owned land

B. Native peoples
1. Understood settlers would share
land
2. Believed land sacred
3. Felt land could not be bought and
sold
4. Saw treaties broken

The seventeenth century marked misunderstanding between the native peoples of

England and North America. English settlers, in their belief that land rights could be obtained
through treaty, actively cleared land, built houses and barns. For them, land is legal private
property. On the other hand, people initially viewed land as something sacred and believed it
could be shared. They consider that felt land cannot be bought and sold. Fundamental
differences emerged when treaties began to be violated, leading to disagreements between
the two groups. Misunderstandings about land rights created tensions and differences of
opinion between British settlers and native populations, creating challenging dynamics in
cultural exchange and land ownership.
7.I. Qualifications of Jackie Robinson, first African American major league baseball player,
spring 1947
A. Skilled ballplayer
1. Excellent hitter
2. Fast runner
3. Talented second baseman
B. Courageous man
1. Agreed to ignore abuses for three
years
a. Ignored by teammates
b. Taunted by fans
c. Goaded by white press
2. Agreed to concentrate on playing ball

Jackie Robinson, an African-American player, made history in the spring of 1947 as the
first major league player from his community. With impressive qualifications, Robinson was
not only an outstanding hitter, but also a talented sprinter and second baseman. However,
his courage to that extent did not only lie in his playing skills. Robinson decided to waive the
violations for three years as part of his agreement. This decision not only led to him being
ignored by his teammates, but also shunned and ridiculed by fans. Despite this pressure,
Robinson remained steadfast and was encouraged by insults from the white press. All these
challenges were unstoppable, as he agreed to stay focused on the ball game, paving the
way for future players from the same background.
