Lesson 21
KZ Culture Spot: A Heart of Gold
1 Do you know any charity organisations which help people? Discuss your ideas in pairs.
2 Read the text about the Heart of Gold. Do you know any people who got the reward?
Altyn zhurek means a heart of gold. It’s a unique award
given to both charity organisations and individuals in
Kazakhstan. It was founded in 2007, in which year there
were only 50 contenders for the award. That number
rose to more than 180 in 2017. During the10 years of
its existence over 95 awards have been made, more
than 110 billion tenge has been raised, 55 schools,
20 kindergartens and 35 hospitals have been built or
renovated and over 3000 children have been cured of
life-threatening diseases.
Ulmeken Kozhassova was an award-winner in 2016.
She lives in a village in the Karaganda region. She
works as a doctor. She’s given free medical aid to her
fellow-villagers for over 35 years because the village is so remote that it’s difficult to get
emergency medical aid from a hospital. As a result, she’s saved lots of lives.
3 Read the text again and choose the correct option in each sentence.
1 Altyn zhurek was started in 2007 / 2017.

Discuss your ideas in pairs.
2 Read the text about the open-air museum. What do you think about this place?
The perfect way for an inhabitant of a big city to get to know more about life in the
countryside is to take a trip to an open-air ethnographic museum. My class has recently
visited one near Almaty.
We tried beating and spinning wool into yarn, took part in putting up a yurt frame, rode
horses and even cooked Baursaks in an outdoor kazan!
It was a terrific adventure! Have you ever been to a museum like this where you live?
3 Read the text again and correct the sentences below, so that they are true about the text.
1 This ethnographic museum is in a big building.
2 It is far from Almaty.
3 You can spin wool or ride a bike there.
4 Going there to that museum is not a good idea.
