1 birthday cards 2 a birthday cake 3 birthday presents 4 candles
On your birthday you get cards and presents from your family and friends. Parents often buy a big present like a bike or MP3 player. Other people give toys, sweets, books, clothes, CDs, DVDs and things
like that. People normally have a birthday party for their friends. There's usually a birthday cake with one
candle for each year of your age. The person with the birthday blows out the candles and
makes a wish. Then everybody sings 'Happy Birthday!' People often have a party in their own home. Some older children don't have a party. They take
their friends to the cinema, a bowling alley or
somewhere like that. My friend, Anna, in Hungary says that they have 'name days' in her country, but we don't have 'name days'. Anna also says that people in Hungary give
flowers on name days and birthdays. In Britain. we
usually only give flowers to women. Cameron and I give flowers to our mum on her birthday.

7 Work with a partner. Tell him I her about your favourite animal.
Meerkals My favourite animals are meerkats. They live in southern Africa in the Kalahari Desert.
Meerkats are brown with grey stripes and black ears. They're quite small - about the same size as a rabbit.
They've got a long body and a long tail, but short legs. They can stand on two legs.
They live in groups. There are between five and thirty meerkats in a group.
They sleep in holes in the ground. Early in the morning,
they leave their holes and look for food. They eat insects plants, lizards, eggs and mice. They can even eat '
poisonous animals like scorpions and spiders. When meerkats eat, some of them stand on two legs and guard the others. That's
because some other animals like to eat meerkats. When the guards see an eagle, a snake or a fox, they bark and all the meerkats run back to their holes.
The story of Chicken licken Comprehension 1 ~ Read and listen to the story. Answer the
questions.
1 Where are Chicken Licken and his friends going? 2 Why? 3 Why don't they get there?
Chicken Licken is in the farmyard. He's eating under a tree when suddenly a nut falls on
......~ his head. 'Oh, no: says Chicken Licken. 'The sky is falling down. I must go to London and tell the King.'
Chicken Licken runs down the road. When he meets Henny Penny, he stops. 'Where are you going?' she says. 'Oh, Henny Penny,' says Chicken Licken, 'the sky is falling down and I'm going to London to tell the King.' 'Well, I must come with you,' says Henny Penny.
So Chicken Licken and Henny Penny run down the road. In the village, Ducky Lucky and Goosey Loosey are swimming on the pond. When Chicken Licken and Henny Penny see them, they stop. 'Hello,' says Ducky Lucky. 'Where are you running to?' 'Oh, Ducky Lucky,' says Chicken Licken, 'the sky is falling down and we're going to London to tell the King. Do you want to join us?' 'Yes, we must come with you,' say Ducky Lucky and Goosey Loosey.
2 Match the words to the pictures.
1 a chick 4 the sky 7 a duck 2 a nut 5 the King 8 a goose 3 a tree 6 a hen 9 a fox
Chicken Licken, Henny Penny, Ducky Lucky and Goosey Loosey run down the road. At the side of the road is Foxy Loxy. He's sitting under a tree. When they see him, they stop. 'Hello,' says Foxy Loxy, 'where are you going?' , Oh, Foxy Loxy,' says Chicken Licken, 'The sky is falling down and we're going to London to tell the King. Do you want to come with us?' , To London?' says Foxy Loxy. 'Well, you're going the wrong way. That isn't the road to London. Follow me.'
So Chicken Licken, d Henny Penny, Ducky Lucky and Goosey Loosey follow Foxy Loxy. But, oh dear, he doesn't take them to London. He takes them to his den. His wife and children are waiting for him -and they're very hungry!
Chicken Licken, Henny Penny, Ducky Lucky and Goosey Loosey never get to London and they never tell the King that the sky is falling down.

@)
o Most people in Britain like animals. A lot of families have got a pet. Dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs and budgerigars (budgies) are all popular pets. Horses are popular, too. Some children go to riding schools, where they learn how to ride and how to look after horses. There are lots of horse shows called gymkhanas with prizes for riding, jumping and other events.
e A lot of TV programmes are about animals. There are programmes about wild animals from all over the world from lions, whales and bears to fish and even insects.
D There are lots of zoos in Britain, but nowadays they don't keep big animals in cages. They are usually in big pens, where they can run and jump. Zoos are very important, because a lot of animals are disappearing in the wild. Zoos can help to save them.
o You can also see animals in safari parks. In these parks, the animals don't live in cages or pens. They live in fields and woods. People drive round the park in their cars to watch the animals. You mustn't get out of your car!
oMost children in Britain live in towns and cities, so they don't see wild or farm animals every day. You can visit some farms and learn about farm life and see animals like sheep, pigs and cows. Some of these farms are in the country but others are in towns and pupils go to them on school trips.

When I was a boy; most people didn't go to other countries for their holidays.
Some rich people went abroad, but most people stayed in Britain.
They didn't travel by plane and a lot of people didn't have a car. They travelled by train or bus.
We only had one holiday a year. My parents worked in a factory In August, the factory always closed for two weeks and all the workers took their holiday then.
We always went to Brighton for our holidays. We didn't stay in a hotel. We stayed with my aunt and uncle. They
lived near Brighton.
We didn't have a lot of money; but we had a good time. We played on the beach with our cousins and swam in the sea. We didn't have a lot of things, but they were happy days.

3 a Read the text again and look at the chart in exercise 1. Copy it and make a column about your holidays.
b Write about typical holidays in your country.
We usually have two holidays a year -a long holiday in the summer and a short one in the winter.
We take our long holiday in July or August When we aren't at school. We go away for two weeks and we always go to a different place. We go to somewhere in Europe -usually France or Italy -but last year we went to Greece.
We also take a holiday in winter for a week or ten days. We normally go to warm places, like the Canary Islands or the Caribbean, but last winter we went skiing in Slovenia. It was great fun.
We always travel by plane when we go abroad and we stay in hotels. However, a lot of my friends take a caravan or go camping. They take their cars to France on a ferry or through the Channel Tunnel.

You see, I've got a magic stone and I can make soup with it. But I need some water.' 'A magic stone, eh?' said the mean old woman. 'Yes, I've got some water.'
She fetched a big saucepan of water and put it on the cooker. The tramp put the stone into it. After a while he tasted the soup. 'Mmm. It's very good; he said. 'Have you got any salt and pepper?' The old woman fetched some salt and pepper. 'Mmm. That's better; said the tramp. 'It really needs some vegetables. It's a pity you haven't got any vegetables.' 'Oh, I can find some vegetables; said the old woman. She ran into the garden and brought back

'Right; said the tramp after a while. 'I can't see the stone now, so the soup is ready. Bread is very good with stone soup. It's a pity you haven't got any bread.' 'Oh, I can find some bread,' said the woman. She went to the cupboard and fetched a loaf of bread, some butter and a bottle of wine. She put them on the table with some knives, forks and spoons.
'Mmm, this is delicious; said the old woman when she tasted the soup. 'And you made it with just that magic stone.' The tramp smiled, picked up his knife and cut another slice of bread.

The first meal of the day is breakfast -usually between 7 and 8 o'clock. The

Most people have a light breakfast. These are some typical things that people have for breakfast: • toast with jam, honey or marmalade • cereal with milk and sugar • fruit (grapefruit is popular) • yoghurt • orange juice • coffee or tea
Between 12 o'clock and two o'clock people have lunch. This is often a light meal of soup, sandwiches and I or a salad. Most children have their lunch at school. They can take sandwiches from home (a packed lunch) or they can buy food at the school canteen.
The main meal of the day is dinner. People usually eat this between about six and seven o'clock in the evening.
A traditional dinner is meat or fish with potatoes and vegetables, but many people nowadays cook foreign food. Lasagne, risotto or curry are popular and some people are vegetarians.
After the main course, some people have dessert (also called 'pudding') -such as fruit, chocolate cake, or apple pie with ice-cream or custard.
In some parts of England, people have the main meal at mid-day and call it 'dinner'. They call the light meal they have in the afternoon or evening 'tea'. Some people also calltheeveningmeal'supper'.This canbe a lightmealor a main meal.

At the end of the 15th century, people from Europe started to travel to other parts of the world. They went to America, Africa and Asia. They brought back a lot of new kinds of food.
Chocolate came from Mexico. The Aztecs there drank chocolate with pepper! The Spanish brought chocolate to Europe and they were the first to put sugar in it. Until the 1870s, chocolate was only a drink. The Swiss made the first bar of chocolate in 1876.

Tomatoes, peppers and avocados all came from Mexico, too. The Spanish took seeds back to Spain and started to grow the plants there. Soon they spread to other countries in Europe and then to other parts of the world.
The words tomato, chocolate and avocado all come from the old Aztec language.
Potatoes came from South America. Potatoes like cold, wet weather. They grew in the mountains of Peru.
Sweetcorn (or maize) came from North America. Turkeys came from North America, too. They didn't come from Turkey!
Coffee came from Africa. The Turks took it to Turkey and then to Europe.
Tea came from China in the 17th century. At first it was very expensive and only rich people drank it, but in the 19th century the British started to grow tea in India. They produced a lot, so it was cheap and everybody drank it.

1 the fourth largest country in the world 2 the largest country in North America 3 the third longest river in the world 4 the largest city in the USA 5 the third largest city in the USA 6 The largest state in the USA
The United States of America is the fourth largest country in the world. It's bigger than the whole of Europe, but it isn't the largest country in North America. That's Canada.
There are five time zones in the USA. So, when it's twelve o'clock in New York, it's only eight o'clock in Alaska. The third longest river in the world is in the USA. It's the Mississippi-Missouri River. The USA is the richest country in the world. It produces more food, iron, cars, aeroplanes,
books, music and TV programmes than any other
country in the world. The USA has a population
of about 300 million people. Most of them live in cities. The
largest city in the USA is New
York. About 8 million people live there. The second largest city is Los
3 Can you name the following in your country?
1 the second and third largest cities 2 the longest river 3 the highest mountain 4 the largest region 5 the biggest lake
Angeles in California and the third largest is Chicago. There are fifty states in the United States. Some of the eastern states, like Rhode Island and Delaware,
are quite small, but others, like Texas, California and Alaska, are bigger than a lot of countries. Alaska
is the largest state. Each state has got its own government and its own capital city. The federal
capital for the whole of the USA is Washington DC. The US President lives there, in the White House. The flag of the USA is called the 'Stars and Stripes'. On the flag there is one star for each of the fifty states. The thirteen stripes are for the original thirteen states. These states formed the USA in 1776. The first settlers in the USA came from Britain, but now the USA has people from all over the world -from Europe, Asia, Africa and South America.

Winter. :(J~ ill~ H' Springs are sunny and warm.
C Why do the seasons change quickly in Springeastern Europe?
Western Europe is wetter than eastern Europe. This is. because count~ies like Britain. France and Portugal are closer to the Atlantic Ocean. The air above
the ocean is wet. so when the wind comes from the west. it brings alot of rain to these western countries.
In summer. eastern Europe is usually hotter than the west. but in winter it's much colder. Why does this happen? Again. the answer is because ofthe Atlantic Ocean. Water changes its temperature slowly, but the land changes very quickly.
In summer, the ocean is cooler than the land, so it keeps western Europe cooler than the east. In winter, the ocean is warmer than the land, so it keeps western Europe warmer.
The countries in eastern Europe are further from the ocean. SQ it doesn't affect the temperatures there. It doesn't cool the land in the summer. and it doesn't warm the land in the winter.
This also means that the seasons are different in eastern and western Europe. The temperature of the land changes quickly. so the weather changes from a hot summer to a cold winter quickly. too. Spring and autumn are short. but summer and winter are longer. In western Europe the temperature changes slowly. so spring and autumn are longer and summer and winter are shorter.
