My name’s Paul. I live with my mum and dad in a village near Oxford. My dad is
a shop assistant and my mum is a nurse. Mum works in a big hospital in
Oxford. She goes to work at nine o’clock in the evening and she works for ten
hours every night. Mum didn’t use to work at nights, but she really likes it now.
She works long hours, but she isn’t always busy.
When Mum gets home in the morning, we all have breakfast together. Then I go
to school, Dad goes to work and Mum goes to bed. She sleeps for about six
hours. Then she gets up when I come home from school. We talk and watch TV,
and then I start my homework. Yesterday, I didn’t have any homework, so we
played a board game. Dad came home from work at half past six and we all had
dinner together. We usually eat at about half past seven. Mum is often tired,
but she’s always cheerful.
After dinner, Mum watches TV and reads magazines. Then she gets ready for
work again. I wish she could stay at home in the evenings. I’m looking forward
to the weekend because Mum doesn’t work at weekends.

Most modern computers have a DVD-
drive. You can use this machine to listen to
music CDs and to watch your favourite
films. You can also use it to read CD-ROMs.
CD-ROMs hold the same information as
thousands of pages of a book. Why will
people buy books from bookshops if they
can read them on their computer screen?
Why will they borrow books from
libraries? Research recently showed that
books and newspapers are still very
popular. Computers are expensive, but
books and newspapers cost very little. But
the big advantage is that you can pick up a
book quickly and easily and then put it
down again.You don’t have to worry about
opening programs or saving data.

Most experts say that books will continue
to exist, but that we will use them in a
different way. People didn’t stop writing
letters after the invention of the telephone
in 1876. Firstly, not everyone had a
telephone. But, more importantly, people
started sending letters for different
purposes. Today, people don’t write
personal letters. They use their mobile
phones and e-mail instead. Similarly,
before the invention of the camera, we
used paintings to record how people
looked. Today, we use cameras to do this,
but it doesn’t mean that there are no new
paintings and painters.

The Camel
What is special about the camel?
Well, first of all, camels have
humps. Some of them have one
hump and some have two. The
Arabian one-humped camel came
originally from the Middle East;
the two-humped Bactrian camel
was originally from the dry parts
of Asia. Camels are the largest
animals in the desert. Camels are
common in zoos around the
world, but today they’re rare in
the wild. They are between 2.25
and 3.45 metres long, and they
are up to 2.1 metres tall. Arabian
camels have longer legs, but they
aren’t as heavy as Bactrian
camels.
Camels have got thick fur. This
protects them against the hot
days and cold nights of the
desert. Their huge feet, with only
two toes, are ideal for walking on
sand, and they can close their
noses when they are in a
sandstorm.
There isn’t a lot of water in the
desert, so how do camels
survive? Camels have a solution
for this problem. They don’t need
to drink for long periods of time
because they can store water in
their humps. They just drink a lot
before a long journey! In fact,
camels can drink more than 50
litres of water in a short time.
They store this water, and their
food, in their humps.

Flying for Southern Air
Craig Brown is one of Britain’s busiest
helicopter pilots. Five years ago, Craig started
working for Southern Air. Southern Air hires
out helicopters, gives flying lessons and runs
and helicopter taxi service.
Craig started in the company office. Then he
took flying lessons. After three years, he got
his instructor’s licence. Craig loves training
people to fly helicopters. ‘When someone flies
solo for the first time, it’s fantastic,’ he says.
‘Some people are nervous about helicopters,
but cars are much more dangerous. More
people die in their cars than in helicopters. And
if your engine fails, you can land anywhere you
want.’
➒ Read the text and answer the questions.
1 How long has Craig worked for Southern Air?
2 How long did it take him to become a helicopter
instructor?
3 Are cars safer than helicopters?
4 What kind of people use helicopter taxi services?

Helicopter taxis transport famous people when
they don’t want to travel by car. They’re also
very useful to the police. They can send
pictures of busy roads to the police and help
radio stations to improve their traffic reports.
When cars crash, they can fly to the accident.
They can also help when the police are chasing
criminals. Helicopters can follow fast cars
when they are speeding down motorways and
send information to the police.
Why does Craig like his job? ‘It’s very varied.
I never know what I’m going to do the next
day. Last Monday I took a member of the
government to a meeting in Scotland. The next

traffic control.’

sailing round the world. She completed her
journey of nearly 40,000 kilometres in 71 days
14 hours 18 minutes and 33 seconds. When she
returned to Britain, Helen was a hero! She was
exhausted, but very happy.
Ellen didn’t grow up near the sea. She was born
in a town in central England in 1977. When she
was eight years old, her aunt took her sailing at
the seaside. She has been in love with boats
since then. Ellen wasn’t from a rich family, so
she saved up her school dinner money for three
years and in 1990 she bought her first boat.
