national parl@
Imagine stepping out of your front door
and standing in the middle of a national park.
Danie! Raven-Ellison hopes this might soon
be possible for millions of London residents.
Daniel is leading a campaign to make London
anational park city
Although London has much more concrete
than a national park usually would, itis home
tomore than 13,000 kinds of wildlife. These
species live in its 3,000 parks, along with
1,500 varieties of flowering plants and more
than 300 species of birds. In fact, 47 per cent of
the land in London is green space.
‘We have eight million trees in
London; it’s the world’s largest urban forest
Daniel says. That's almost one tree for every
person living in London! Yet, even though London
has thousands of outdoor spaces, one in seven
children living there hasn't isited a green space
in the past year
Daniel believes that making London into a
national park will protect the animal life and
green spaces in London. He hopes it will also
encourage people, especially young people, to
spend more time outdoors. Daniel takes his
own son out to explore in London, and he thinks
that other parents should do the same. Daniel
is convinced that people who spend a lot of time
in nature live happier and healthier lives. What

In descriptive writing, we try to create a picture for the reader. We use
describing words to help the reader clearly imagine what we're writing about.
Examples of describing words include:
beautiful colourful new short sweet-smelling yellow
Read the model. Work in pairs to find and underline all of the describing words
the writer uses to talk about the garden.
Last year, the empty space opposite my bus stop was a sad, empty, ugly space,
with only a couple of dead bushes and one short tree. Then some hard-working
gardeners in the neighbourhood changed that. They were tired of looking at that sad
space while waiting for the bus, so they made it into a beautiful garden. Now, ona
sunny summer day you can look across the street and see colourful vegetable plants
and sweet-smelling flowers while you wait for the bus. Yellow butterflies fly from
plantto plant, and tiny birds sing in the green trees. Tove taking the bus now!
Work in pairs. Draw a picture of the garden described in Activity 1, Compare your
drawing with a partner's. How are they the same? How are they different?
Write. Think of a beautiful place in your neighbourhood. Use describing words to
write a paragraph about this place.

you wear? Why do you wear it?
‘Throughout history, people have used
accessories to make their outfits look
more special. Jewellry was, and still is,
in fashion all over the world. Through
the years, people have worn jewellry for
different reasons: to make themselves look
beautiful, to protect them from bad things,
and to show how much money they have.
In South Africa, men in the Ndebele
tribe often gave their wives jewellry made
of metal rings. Ndebele women wore
necklaces around their necks and bracelets
around their arms. Rings were even worn
on their legs. The rings showed wealth.
‘Awoman with many rings had a richer
husband. In the past, women only took off
the rings when their husbands died. Today,
Ndebele women still wear the rings, but
notall of the time.People in India have been wearing jewellry
formore than 5,000 years. In the past, both
men and women wore alot of jewellry. Women
‘wore as many as 50 bracelets at a time! Over
time, men stopped wearing so much jewellry,
but for women jeweliry continues to be very
important, In India, jewellry means security,
Ifa family has trouble with money, they can
always sell their jewellry. And, as with the
Ndebele tribe, jewellry means wealth. Indian
women can expect to receive jewellry as gifts
foreach important life event, such as birth,
marriage and becoming a mother. In addition
towearing bracelets and necklaces, Indian
women might pierce their nose or wear rings
on their toes.
Inancient China, people wore jewellry not
just to show wealth butalso for protection.
They believed that the jade stone used in
their jewellry was alive and that it kept bad
things away. Many Chinese people today still
believe this, and they wear jade bracelets for
otection. They only wear the bracelets on
heir left arms, and they only take them off

Before 1870, there were no football uniforms. Players wore their own clothes,
which made it hard to know which team they were on. The first football uniform had
Jong, loose shorts. Players wore striped, formal shirts with collars and buttons. The
entire uniform was made of a heavy fabric, such as wool. Players then put on leather
football boots that went up over their ankles.
Football uniforms have changed many times through the years. Today, football
uniforms are very different. The shorts are shorter, and the whole uniform is made
out of light fabric. This keeps footballl players cool as they run. Instead of boots,
football players wear soft leather shoes. Each team now has its own colours. For
example, players on the Brazilian football team wear bright yellow and green
shirts, blue shorts and white socks. But these uniforms will change, too. After
all, sports teams need uniforms that are practical but also in fashion!

Ani-mixes
Combining photos of two or more animals is a popular activity these days. There
are a lot of funny and weird animal mixes that people create and share on the Internet.
r example, a ‘turger’ is a tiger with a turtle shell. Another example is the ‘dish’,
which is a mix ofa dog and fish. Its body has a few fins and some scales, and it has
allot of fur on its dog head. Some mixes are alittle scary, such as the ‘sharilla’. Its a
combination of a shark and a gorilla, with the head of a shark and the body of a gorilla.
Ithas a huge mouth with a lot of teeth in it. Ithhas a huge, furry body, and its head
and fur are almost the same colour. It’s funny to look at, but I think /d run if sawa

When we write a product review, we describe a product. We give examples of

understand our opinions.
Read the model. Work in pairs to find the good and bad points about the product.
Underline the good points. Circle the bad points.
Do you like the smell of cakes baking? Fresh flowers? Well, it's now possible to
experience these great smells electronically. You just need a cool new gadget for
sending smells, scent pellets, and an app on your smartphone or tablet.
This product is amazing because it lets you share smells with people anywhere
in the world. Sharing smells can help us connect to an idea or an experience better
than just looking at a photo or reading a text. Think about it: you're making biscuits.
You take a photo of the biscuits using the app. Then you tag the photo with certain
smells, like chocolate or butter. You can combine tags to create more than 300,000
different smells! I love how the product lets you be creative in mixing different
scents. I also like the idea of receiving smells. So if my friends are camping and I'm
not there, at least I can smell the burning campfire!
This product is incredible, but there are some things about it that I don't like.
First, the gadget is big and not very mobile. It would be great to receive smells,
wherever I go. The company is working on this problem. They're creating bracelets
and smartphone cases that will let users receive smells, but these products aren't
available yet. The product is also pretty expensive! It may be a while before a lot of
people have them, so there won't be many people to share smells with. All in all, I
give this product three out of five stars!

134 READINGWhat's day in your life like today? You
probably go to school and do your homework.
‘Athome, you do a few simple chores, like
doing the washing up or making your bed.
You might complain about not having enough
free time to relax.
In the past, children your age probably had
alittle more to complain about. Throughout
much of history, many didn't go to school
because they had to help all day at home or
on the farm. Their parents taught them what
they knew, but very few adults could read
orwrite. The Aztec people, who lived from
1200 to 1473 in present-day Mexico, were
unique. The Aztecs believed that education, or
learning, was important. Every child went to
school, although boys and girls learnt different
things.
In addition to going to school, Aztec
children were expected to help with chores
at home. Girls learnt to weave at the age of
about four, and they learnt to cook at the age
tad,
Rey
of about 12. Boys, on the other hand, learnt
occupational skills.
By the 19" century, many people began
‘moving into cities to find jobs. In cities, there
‘was no longer a need to have children work on
the farm, So they began working in factories
instead. In England, many children worked
Jong hours six days a week. And they earned
very little money in return. Children started
working from a very young age, sometimes
at only five or six years old. They gave all of
their money to their parents to help pay for the
family’s needs.
Today, most children go to school.
Sometimes teenagers work part-time jobs to
earn money. But many use that money for
enjoyment, not to help their families. Think
about it! Even ifyou work and go to school, you
still have time to relax or spend time with your
iends. Next to children from the past, most
children nowadays have it pretty easy!
