Lesson 3, pp. 16–17 1a Community 1: it’s “a hive of activity”, for example, music, soccer. They cheer and sing when Bafana Bafana plays. Community 2: the people are close to nature. The nature is wonderful, beautiful rainforests and coastlines. They grow their own food, so no one starves. People help each other. They are spiritual and not materialistic.

The online community is predicting that blogs will soon replace print journalism. While publishing material on the web is far easier than getting it into print, I have my doubts about this prediction. First, blogs are considerably less reliable than print journalism.There are checks and balances for print journalists, and newspapers are far more likely than websites to be prosecuted if they get the facts wrong. Reading a blog is almost the same as reading a diary: if it is full of lies and exaggeration, there’s not a lot you can do. The advantage of blogs is that they are personal and usually unedited. But the more we rely on them for news, the less sure we can be that we are getting the full story. Basically, they act as a voice that cannot be silenced. The easier the web becomes to use, the more diverse voices it will contain, and that’s a great thing. As for me, I’m far more comfortable getting my news from a newspaper!

Bird expert Olaf Sund says that teaching a parrot to talk is a piece of cake. Here he gives a few invaluable tips. The first thing you need to do is choose the right bird. Bigger birds, like Blue Fronts and Yellow Napes, are your best bet, and make sure you get them when they are young. Birds older than 18 months probably won’t learn to talk. Once you’ve chosen the bird, put it in the room where the family congregates the most—maybe the living room. For parrots to learn how to talk, human interaction is the key.

At first, it can be a little tricky for any wild animal in a domestic environment, so give the bird a few weeks to acclimate. The next step is to turn off the TV and remove any distractions. Place the bird on your hand and say a word in conjunction with an action or object. For example, give it a peanut and say: “Peanut” or lift the bird up and say: “Up”. The process must be pretty straightforward, so use short, simple words at first. Be gentle and patient with the bird, and put lots of emotion in your voice. Teach the bird in 15-minute sessions, and give rewards, such as food, when the bird repeats a word. Without doing this, some birds are slow to speak. If your teaching doesn’t work, you should allow another family member to try. Many birds prefer a female voice.

b 1. To show how hot the weather was in Death Valley. 2. Because the sun burns your skin and you peel. 3. “The roaring, like some great giant’s endless breath” and “endless tongues of screaming white water” 4.

It really is one of a kind. Over a thousand years ago it was probably worn by a tribal queen.

It’s absolutely state-of-theart and it’s yours, brand new, for just $10,000.” 4. “OK, OK, they’re second-hand but they’re as good as new. I mean, look, they’re still in the original packaging!

We pick the fruit in the morning, chop it up and coat it in sugar and honey. Then we roll the pastry and put the fruit inside it. You can choose from a selection of over fifteen fruits.”

1. The first cause we discovered was a lack of concentration. 2. Instead of dealing with the task at hand, many people let their mind wander, staring out of the window or surfing the net. 3. The second cause was fear; when we are worried that a task is beyond us, we tend to put it off. 4. Consequently, putting it off just adds to that feeling of anxiety, because time is running out. 5. A third cause is perfectionism. 6. For example, some perfectionists believe they must do extensive research before writing anything. 7. This means that they read and read but never actually get around to writing the paper.

c Sample answer: Stephen Hawking was born in Oxford, England in 1942. Hawking did not put much effort into his schoolwork, but he did busy himself with personal projects. After he graduated from Oxford University, Hawking suffered from a disease known as ALS. Doctors predicted that he would only have a couple of years to live. However, Hawking refused to give up hope. He continued his research and married Jane Wilde in 1965. Hawking discovered new information about black holes that surprised the scientific world. His first book, A Brief History of Time, was published in 1988. These and other accomplishments have cemented his reputation as one of the greatest theoretical physicists of all time.

b Hi Arline, There’s Hans Vogel, who specializes in particle theory. He has really devoted his life to his research. He’s probably one of the greatest scientists of all time. There’s also Bernheimer in recognition of his work in physics . . . He’s the world’s greatest expert in the field. He is totally immersed in his work, which is the development of a new type of weapon. I’ve managed to speak to him on several occasions, and even though he’s working in very tough conditions, he doesn’t seem to feel the stress. I’ve been able to draw inspiration from these people and I really hope I can succeed in my work here.

When I was younger, my parents were always busy. They had just started their own business, so they often had to go overseas and couldn’t take care of my brother and me. When they went away on these trips, they would send us to stay with my grandfather, a fruit farmer who lives in the foothills of the mountains. I was always happy when my mother told us we would stay with Grandpa, since the time we spent at his house was always wonderful. The air there was fresh and clean, and the scenery was beautiful. There was no pollution. In the morning, I would wake up and smell the grass and the flowers, and hear the birds singing their song. There is an orchard filled with fruit trees of many kinds, and we were always happy when our grandfather would ask: Would you like to help pick the fruit? When the fruit was ripe, we could pick as much as we could eat. And when there was too much, we would set up a fruit stand, and make good money selling the sweet fruit to passers-by. My grandfather kept dogs and chickens, and took us for walks in the forest. Here he taught us the names of the plants, so that we would know which were good to eat, which were useful for medicinal purposes, and which were toxic. He wouldn’t let us pick the plants until we could tell him what each one was. We learned so much when we were with him, more than we would have learned by going to school. I would have stayed there forever, if it were possible.
