READING VALERIA’S DAY


Valeria likes routines! Her office is very organized, and so is her life!
She always gets up at 5:30 a.m. If her alarm doesn`t ring, she still gets up!
She is very used to getting up at this time of day. Her roommate, Lorena, gets up early, too. If Lorena
makes coffee, Valeria makes the oatmeal. But whenever Lorena has a day off, she sleeps until 7:30 a.m.
So, every time Lorena has a day off, Valeria makes the coffee. When Valeria gets to the office, she says
hello to her receptionist. Her receptionist’s name is Bill, and he is also very organized. Bill gives Valeria
a list of tasks for the day when she arrives. He also gives her a list of calls. If there are any calls to return,
Valeria does this first. She doesn’t like to keep people waiting! The only problem is, she goes to work so
early that usually no one is in their office yet! Well, maybe she’ll have another coffee first. Then she’ll
make all those phone calls!

READING Superstitions
Read the article about the origin of two superstitions
“A broken mirror gives you seven years of bad luck.”
In ancient Greece, it was common for people to consult “mirror seers,” who told their fortunes by
analyzing their reflections. Divination was performed with the help of water and a looking glass
(mirror). This was called catoptromancy. The mirror was put into the water and a sick person was
asked to look into the glass. If his image appeared distorted, he would to die soon; if it was clear, he
would live. In the first century A.D., the Romans added a twist to the superstition. At that time, it
was believed that. A distorted image resulting from a broken mirror meant seven years of ill-health
and misfortune, rather than death.
“A black cat crossing your path is lucky/unlucky.”
Many cultures agree that black cats are powerful omens, but do they signify good or evil?
The ancient Egyptians loved all cats, and it was there that the belief began that a black cat crossing
your path brings good luck. This positive reputation was different in Europe in the early seventeenth
century in England. King Charles I had a black cat as a pet. When the cat died, King Charles
lamented that his luck was gone. The day after the cat’s death he was arrested and charged with
high treason. During the Middle Ages, in many other parts of Europe people thought black cat were
the “familiars,” or companions, of witches, or even witches themselves in disguise, and that a black
cat crossing your path was an indication of bad luck, a sign that devil was watching you. This was
a strong belief held by the Pilgrims when they came to America, perhaps explaining the strong
association between black cats and witchcraft that exists in the country to this day.

6. Read Bedouins and choose the correct information.

Bedouins
Most people live in permanent houses or shelters, but nomads move around the countryside taking
their homes with them or building new shelters
each time they stop. Nomads do not plant crops,
they own animals and move to find new grazing
lands. Among the best known nomadic people
are the Bedouin. Bedouins are nomadic Arabs,
who inhabit the deserts of the Middle East and
northern Africa. Virtually all Bedouins are
Muslims. In ancient times, their territory
Figure 1 imagen no copyrights
included only the deserts of Egypt and Syria.
Later they entered Mesopotamia and Chaldea. The Muslim conquest of northern Africa in the 7th
century opened up more land to the Bedouin people. Although they form only a small part of the
population of these areas, they cover a very large area in their nomadic travels. When they are
travelling, Bedouins live in tents. The typical Bedouin tent is made from strips of cloth woven from goat
or camel hair and vegetable fibres, sewn together and dyed black. When they settle in one place for a
longer time, they build rectangular houses with stone or adobe walls. Some Bedouins have kept their
nomadic way of life. They eat mainly meat and dairy products from their herds. Many Bedouins herd
camels and the camel breeders among the population have the highest social position. In general, they
do not grow crops or buy and sell goods. However, with the increase of oil production in the 1960s and
1970s, many Bedouins have taken jobs in the oil industry. Today only 5 to 10% of Bedouins live a
completely nomadic lifestyle.

a North America. a very short distances.
b Europe. b quite short distances.

Dear Mum and Dad,
Thanks a lot for your letter. Lourdes and I are having a very good time here. We have just been to
Yarina National Reserve. It was great. First, we flew to Lago Agrio. The plane was small and full of
people and Napo was very busy. From there we travelled for six hours by bus and canoe until we
arrived at the camp in Yarina. We slept in mosquito nets in a big cabin. In the daytime we walked in
the jungle and learnt about medicinal plants from the
native guide. We saw lots of birds and animals, for
example, mon- keys and dolphins and …. you won’t
believe it … an anaconda! One afternoon, the guides
took us to fish piranhas. It was scary, but exciting. We

they are false.

THE DEVELOPMENT OF COMPUTERS

Human beings have always needed to count. In prehistoric times people counted on their fingers and
by scratching marks on bone. About 4,000 years ago early civilizations developed different counting
systems but the starting point of modern computers was the invention of the abacus (an arrangement
of beads used by merchants for counting and calculating). It may have originated with the Egyptians
or the Greeks in 3,000 BC. It was not until the 17th century that the first calculator was invented. Blaise
Pascal, a famous Frenchman, designed the first
adding machine in 1642.
It performed arithmetic when linked dials were
turned. It consisted of several toothed wheels
arranged side by side and each was marked from
0 to 9 at equal intervals around its perimeter.
This machine was improved by a German genius
called Gottfried von Leibniz. He produced a
mechanical calculator in 1673. Besides adding, Figure 4 imagen no copyright.
this machine could divide and multiply. In the
middle of the 19th century, the British mathematician, George Boole, designed a system of symbolic
logic called Boolean algebra. His formulas have made electronic digital computers possible.

22.- Read and choose the best answer for each question.

Russell Chadwick remembers the summer he


turned 16- it was the time he wrestled with grizzly
bears!
Russell´s adventure started when he came to stay
at Wasatch Rocky Mountain Wildlife, an animal
training center in Utah. The center is run by Doug
and Lynne Seus, who train wild animals to be actors
in television and movies.
Doug and Lynne asked high school student Russell
to help them take care of two four-month-old
grizzly bear cubs called Little Bart and Honey Bump.
That´s more difficult than it sounds, because even
baby bears are pretty big. Imagen 26 Reading explorer intro book

Russell´s job was to play with the bears to get them used to humans. At the same time, he had to
remember that movie bears are still wild animals:
“One time Bump took a bite out of my back, and I had to wrestle her to the ground. But it also
showed me how smart she is. She knew she had done something wrong and “apologized” by putting
her head in my lap.
Russell found that bears can understand more than just “sit” and “stay” For example, when Russell
called out “Peekaboo!” to the adult bear, Tank, he covered his eyes with his paws, just like a little kid.
Although he didn´t get a large fee for the job, Russell says he values the experience more than
money. When you´ve wrestled with a grizzly bear, things like work and exams don´t seem so difficult
anymore!
1) What is the reading mainly about?
a) How to get a summer job in Utah.
b) What Russell did for his summer job.
c) Why wild animals make good actors.
d) Movies that the Seus´ bears acted in

d) Doug and Lynne Seus are movie actors.

the tag questions made, and include the intonation, falling () or rising () according to the
speakers’ intentions.

THE MARY CELESTE AN UNEXPLAINED MYSTERY


The Mary Celeste left New York on November 5 th, 1872. Captain
Briggs and his family were on the ship, and six other men.
On December 4th, another ship called the Dei Gratia, was in the
middle of the Atlantic. Its captain saw the Mary Celeste. The
captain and some men went on the Mary Celeste. There were not
any people on the ship!
There was a lot of food on the ship. In the kitchen, there were plates
and saucepans. Everything was in its place. The people were not
there, but all of their clothes and things were! The captain looked at
the logbook on the table. The last date in it was November 25th.
Did the people leave the ship after that day?
Why did they leave? Did they jump off the ship? What happened to the people after they left the Mary
Celeste? People have tried to answer those questions for years! (www.history.com/news/what-
happened-to-the-mary-celeste, s.f.)

DIRECT SPEECH
Direct speech repeats, or quotes, the exact words spoken. When we use direct speech in writing, we place
the words spoken between quotation marks (" ") and there is no change in these words. We may be
reporting something that is being said NOW (for example a telephone conversation) or telling someone
later about a previous conversation.
EXAMPLE:

▪ She says, "What time you are home every day"


▪ She asked, "What time are you home every day?" and I said, “At 6pm.
▪ "There's a fly in my soup!" screamed Simone.
▪ John said, "There's an elephant outside the window.

INDIRECT OR REPORTED SPEECH

Reported or indirect speech is usually used to talk about the past, so we normally change the tense of the
words spoken. We use reporting verbs like 'say', 'tell', 'ask', and we may use the word 'that' to introduce
the reported words. Inverted commas are not used.

• She said, "I saw him." (Direct speech) = She said that she had seen him. (Indirect speech)

That may be omitted.


• She told him that she was happy. = She told him she was happy.
SAY AND TELL
Use “say” when there is no indirect object.
• He said he was tired.
Always use “tell” when you say who was being spoken to (i.e. with an indirect object):
Luis told me that he was tired.

https://www.perfect-english-grammar.com/reported-speech.html

TALK AND SPEAK


Use these verbs to describe the action of communicating:
Example:
• He talked to us. She was speaking on the telephone.
Use these verbs with “about to refer to what was said”
• He talked (to us) about his parents.
QUESTIONS
Type Example
with interrogative direct speech “Why don’t you speak English?”
reported speech He asked me why I didn’t speak English.
without interrogative direct speech “Do you speak English?”
reported speech He asked me whether / if I spoke English

LESSON 3: RELATIVES ADVERBS
An adverb tells more about a verb. It can tell how, when, where, or why an action takes place.
An adverb is a word that describes a verb, an adjective, another adverb or a sentence. It is often used
to show time, manner and place, or degree.
The relative pronouns where, when, why, whatever and wherever act as adverbs when they join
sentences or clauses. Therefore, an adverb that introduces a relative clause is called a
relative adverb.
Example:

• I know the house where he lives.


• There must be some reason why he cried.
• The day when I met Jane was the best day of my life.

✓ Where is an adverb of place.


✓ When is an adverb of time.
✓ Why is an adverb of reason.
✓ What nominal relative free.

• A relative adverb is used to start a description for a noun. (This description is called an adjective
clause.) For example:
The seat where we sat last Saturday is still free.
(The noun is the seat. The relative adverb is where. The adjective clause identifying the seat is
shaded.)
I can remember a time when I could eat four hamburgers.
(The noun being identified is a time.)
• We do not know the reason why he left.
(The noun being identified is the reason.)
• When the relative adverb why modifies reason, you can omit the word reason to avoid
a tautology, i.e., unnecessary repetition.)
We do not know why he left.
• What I said is the true.
Note: When a noun like seat has accompanying modifiers (here, the seat), it is known as a noun
phrase.

WRITING: AT RESTAURANT
22. Rewrite the story using relatives adverbs why, where, when, what.
I was sitting in a café. I often go there for a drink after work. I called the waiter. I know him quite well. I
asked for a cup of coffee. While I was waiting, I looked at a newspaper. It was lying on the table. I started
reading an article on the front page. It said: ‘Police are looking for a woman, Catherine. She has been
missing from her home for two weeks.’ I looked at the photo. It showed a woman with dark curly hair,
she had a round face. I recognized it at once. She was my new neighbor. She had moved in just 2 weeks
before.
