Travelers of the year

In 2011, Canadian travel writer Heather Greenwood Davis and her husband, Ike, went on an adventure. They took their two sons—Ethan and Cameron—out of school, and went on a round-the-world trip.

In total, the Davis family spent 12 months on the road and went to 29 countries. They saw amazing birds in the Galapagos islands, climbed volcanoes, and helped at a children’s hospital in China. They even came close to a huge bear in Canada. They went to beautiful temples in Cambodia. They also traveled into the rain; forests of Thailand and saw really big Asian elephants.

While they traveled, they wrote many travel blog posts. They also took lots of photos. Now back home in Canada, Heather says that her family learned many things. They learned that the world is a beautiful place full of amazing people. Traveling made her see how we are all like each other. We can all make friends everywhere we go.

I cannot imagine living my life without my family by my side. Family is very important and valuable to me and is something that should never be taken for granted. Without my family, a large part of my life and culture would be missing.

Whether it’s my grandparent, my two sisters, my mom, or my dad, I know I can always count on someone to help me feel better. In fact, I think that this is probably the most important thing that my family has taught me; a family is made up of people who you can trust and who you can count on.

Too many times today, we read in the papers about families where parents abuse their children, verbally and physically. What these parents don’t realize is that they are either beginning or involving themselves in a vicious circle of hate in families. When parents abuse their children, they are telling their children that that is the way to raise children, and this is what their children learn. I was lucky, I have learned differently, because my family cares about me, and I care about them.

In this world of doubt, insecurity, and fear, my family is always there for me, holding their arms open to me with love. On the first day of first grade, I didn’t want to go to school, I had butterflies in my stomach and I found it difficult to walk because I was so nervous. The only reason that I finally went into the classroom is because my mom walked in with me, and promised me that as soon as school was out, she’d be there waiting for me, ready to bring me back to where I felt most comfortable, my family.

Luckily, I’m a little more grown up now; I can go into school by myself, and in a couple of years, when I go away to college, I’ll really have to go to school by myself. There will be no one who I will know at college. Of course I know I’ll make friends, but none of them will mean as much to me as my family does…..

Tôi không thể tưởng tượng sống cuộc sống của tôi mà không có gia đình của tôi bên cạnh tôi. Gia đình là rất quan trọng và có giá trị đối với tôi và là một cái gì đó mà không bao giờ nên được đưa cho các cấp. Không có gia đình tôi, một phần lớn cuộc sống và văn hóa của tôi sẽ bị mất tích. Cho dù đó là ông bà của tôi, hai chị em của tôi, mẹ tôi, hoặc bố tôi, tôi biết tôi luôn có thể dựa vào một ai đó để giúp tôi cảm thấy tốt hơn. Trong thực tế, tôi nghĩ rằng đây có lẽ là điều quan trọng nhất mà gia đình tôi đã dạy tôi; một gia đình được tạo thành từ những người bạn có thể tin tưởng và bạn có thể tin tưởng ai. Quá nhiều lần ngày hôm nay, chúng tôi đọc trong các bài báo về các gia đình mà cha mẹ lạm dụng con cái của họ, bằng lời nói và thể chất. Điều mà những bậc cha mẹ này không nhận ra là họ bắt đầu hoặc liên quan đến bản thân trong một vòng luẩn quẩn của sự thù hận trong gia đình. Khi cha mẹ lạm dụng con cái của họ, họ đang nói với con cái của họ rằng đó là cách để nuôi dạy trẻ em, và đây là những gì con cái của họ học. Tôi đã may mắn, tôi đã học được một cách khác nhau, bởi vì gia đình tôi quan tâm đến tôi, và tôi quan tâm đến họ. Trong thế giới hoài nghi này, bất an, và sợ hãi, gia đình tôi luôn ở đó cho tôi, nắm lấy cánh tay của họ mở ra cho tôi với tình yêu. Vào ngày đầu tiên của lớp một, tôi không muốn đi học, tôi đã có những con bướm trong dạ dày của tôi và tôi thấy khó đi lại vì tôi rất lo lắng. Lý do duy nhất mà tôi cuối cùng vào lớp là vì mẹ tôi đi cùng tôi, và hứa với tôi rằng ngay sau khi tan học, cô ấy sẽ đợi tôi, sẵn sàng đưa tôi trở lại nơi tôi cảm thấy thoải mái nhất , gia đình tôi. May mắn thay, bây giờ tôi đã trưởng thành hơn một chút; Tôi có thể đi học một mình, và trong một vài năm, khi tôi đi học đại học, tôi sẽ thực sự phải đi học một mình. Sẽ không có ai mà tôi biết ở đại học. Tất nhiên tôi biết tôi sẽ kết bạn, nhưng không ai trong số họ có ý nghĩa nhiều với tôi như gia đình tôi… ..

A visit to the Ocean Center – by Rebecca Hardy, aged 13

My family and I went to the Ocean Center in my hometown recently. It was one of the most

amazing places I’ve ever been. We don’t live near the sea, so I don’t get much chance to see

living creatures for myself.

Inside the center you go on what they call an ocean journey. It takes you from the smallest

stream, through rivers, and out into the deepest ocean. Along the way you meet fish and other

creatures that live in these places. And there are thousands of them – some pretty and peaceful,

and others frightening and deadly.

Our guide told us that the Center was originally set up to help look after the seas and protect the

life within them. In fact, every entry ticket bought there helps the Center to achieve its aim, so I felt

my visit was in a good cause.

By chance, we arrived just at feeding time and watched staff give food to hundreds of fish. I

wanted to do it too, but the staff wouldn’t let me. But I’d still really recommend being there at

feeding time. You’ll see feeding times advertised at the ticket sales, or you can telephone in

advance to find out when they are.

The most fascinating part of the visit for me was a new exhibition at the Center that told the story

of seahorses across the world. It has the biggest collection for these magical creatures in Europe,

and almost as many as one in the USA. I found out about what they ate, and how a male

seahorse managed to give birth to 1500 babies! And although our guide told us it was hard to see

the young ones, we were lucky enough to catch sight of some in the tank!

We also went to one of the Center’s talks about the underwater world.

Ours was called ‘Sharks’,

and the one on the following day was called ‘Creatures of the Deep’. There are talks on other

topics given on different days, so it’s best to check which talk will take place on the day you go.

Once we’d bought our ticket, we could go in and out of the Center as many times as we liked

during the day. We can also buy an annual pass that gives you unlimited entry all year around. I’m

saving up for one!

For questions 1 – 5, circle A, if the sentence is correct, or B, if the sentence is incorrect.

For questions 6 – 10, answer the questions. Use your own words.

1. Rebecca hardy’s home is close to the coast.

2. At the Ocean Center, you can see fish from both seas and rivers.

3. All the creatures that are on display at the Center aren’t dangerous.

4. The admission fee for the center goes to environmental projects.

5. Rebecca was allowed to feed the fish at the Center.

6. Rebecca had to book in advance to see the fish at their feeding time.

7. The Ocen Centre has the largest collection of seahorses in the world.

8. Rebecca was pleased that she was able to see baby seahorses in the exhibition.

9. Each day, the Centre holds lots of talks on different topics.

10. Rebecca found she could leave and return to the Centre during her visit without paying again.

II. Read the following passage and answer the following questions. Write your answers in the provided space.
(1pt.)

SLEEPY TEENS

When school superintendent Russell Dever enters the local coffee shop at around 7:20 A.M., it is crowded with
students. “The line is out the door because our high school kids are getting coffee,” he said. And they are not standing in line
for the decaf – they need the caffeine to stay awake in class. Talk to American high school students and you hear the
complaints about how late they stay up, how little they sleep – and how early they must be in class.
These days, there is increasing concern in schools across the United States about students who are not completely
awake in morning classes. School officials in some states have even changed start times so teenagers can sleep later.
According to sleep expert Mary Carskadon, the fact that many teenagers work long hours outside of the school and have
computers and televisions in their bedrooms contributes to a serious lack of sleep. But, she said, the problem is also due to
biology. As the bodies of teenagers develop, their brains also change. These changes make teens more likely than adults to
have trouble sleeping at night.
Teenagers need at least eight to nine hours of sleep a night, but the average teen gets a lot less. Carskadon’s
study, completed in the fall of 2001 with researcher Amy Wolfson, showed that nearly 30 percent of students in the tenth

grade slept less than six hours on school nights. Less than 15 percent got more than eight hours of sleep each night. Eighth-
graders averaged eight hours of sleep a night, although that age group, she said, needs at least nine hours a night. Even

more remarkable are the results of a 1997-1998 school year study. In that study, 12 out of 24 U.S. high school students who
were part of an experiment at a sleep laboratory had brain wave patterns similar to those of someone with narcolepsy, a
serious condition that affects sleep. “What’s going in on is that at 8:30 in the morning these kids ... would normally be in
school sitting in a classroom, but ... their brain is still in the middle of the night,” said Carskadon.
Parent Dawn Dow says her son just cannot go to bed before 10 P.M. “Last year he was trying to put himself to bed
at 8:30 and was coming in 9:30 and 10 in tears saying, ‘I just can’t go to sleep.’ It is not a case of children wanting to be up
late ... It is a change in his chemistry.”
So would letting teenagers wake up later make a difference? Kyla Wahlstrom of the University of Minnesota in the
United States studies the effects of changing school starts time. She has looked at students in Edina and Minneapolis, two
cities in Minnesota, where public school officials have moved high school starting times past 8:30 A.M. In Minneapolis, the
middle school begins at 9:30 A.M. She said the later starting times have reduced students absences. They have also lowered
dropout rates by 8 percent over four years. In addition, she said, teachers report that students are not sleeping at their desks

during the first two hours of class anymore. She said 92 percent of parents from Edina reported that their teenagers are
easier to live with. The students reported that they were feeling less depressed and were getting better grades.
Big changes in school start times may not be possible in some areas. However, Wahlstrom said her research
shows that even small changes can contribute to a solution to this serious problem.
Questions 1 to 6: Decide if the following statements are true, false, or not given according to the information
in the reading passage. Write T (true), F (false), or NG (not given) in the provided space.
Question 1 Most teenagers sleep more than they should.
Question 2 There are scientific reasons that explain why teenagers have difficulty sleeping at night.
Question 3 The brains of teenagers are the same as the brains of adults.
Question 4 Teenagers can do their best schoolwork in the early morning.
Question 5 Some schools start their classes later so that teenage students can get more sleep in the morning.
Question 6 Many parents do not want high school officials to change school start times.

VIII. Read and match sentences A-F with gaps 1-5 in the text. There is one extra sentence.
Polar bears live where the ice meets the sea in the Arctic Circle. They are born on land, but they spend most
of their time in the water. (1) ……………………………… However, the polar bear is specially adapted for life
in such a cold place.
The most important adaptation is their fur. A polar bear's fur has both long and short hairs, which means that
it is very thick. This thick fur keeps the bear warm on the land and stops it getting wet when it is swimming.
(2) ……………………………… This means that the bear appears to be white like the snow and ice around it.
