Ecotourism – is this the future?
What is ecotourism?
Ecotourism is about providing holidays to places which are often endangered
and isolated. The holidays are designed to have a limited impact on the local
environment and to educate tourists about conservation.
Egypt is developing ecotourism to protect the environments along the Red Sea
coast. Tourists can stay in hotels built of environmentally- friendly natural materials.
When tourists go diving they are taught how to avoid damaging the fish and corals.
Madagascar is famous for its ecotourism and wants to protect its ecosystem
(the animals and plants in its environment). 80% of the animals, and 90% of the plants
that live there don’t exist anywhere else in the word. Lemurs, for example, only live in
Madagascar.
The Galapagos Islands in Ecuador are famous for the unique animals, such as
the giant turtles which live there. Ecuador makes sure that tourism is sustainable. Only a
limited number of people can visit islands each year, so the animals and their
environment are safe.
The Komodo National Park in Indonesia is a popular ecotourism destination.
Much of Indonesia’s endangered wildlife, including the Komodo dragon, can only be
found here.The National Park is also famous for its beach with pink sand.
James's blog:
This is me on our hotel balcony in Sharm El-Sheikh. It’s brilliant here and there are
loads of things to do. I’m over the moon visiting Egypt. The weather’s really hot so we
spend most of the time in the water.
My sister and I are learning to dive with some other teenagers at the resort. I love
diving; it’s so relaxing and you can see all these amazing fish in the sea. I want to get an
underwater camera so I can take photos of them.
Last week we were in Luxor and visited the ancient temples there. I’m not usually
interested in history, but I actually found them fascinating and am really glad we went.
Katy's blog:
Day 10 of my summer holidays! I’m so bored – all my friends are away or busy
with their family and I’m stuck here at home. The weather’s awful and there’s nothing to do.
Last week I went to stay with my grandparents for a few days which was nice, but
they live in a tiny village with no shops. I was helping Granddad in his garden most of
the time. He grows all his own vegetables – he says it’s cheaper than buying them.
Maybe I’ll try and grow some lettuce in our garden when it stops raining. I was
watching a programme on TV this morning about gardening – maybe I’ll have a new
hobby!

Lara's holiday:
Last year we went to Europe to visit my cousins in Portugal. On the first day, my uncle
met us at the airport and drove us to the old part of town. We walked around Lisbon and I
took lots of photos. As I was photographing the castle , my little brother started crying. He
was eating an ice cream and a bird stole it! He was very upset. Next, my uncle decided to take
us to a restaurant for lunch. After that, we went to the shops, they are a bit expensive but my
mum was happy. Finally, we sailed along the river to see the sun going down. It was
beautiful and very relaxing. It's very quiet and peaceful.
Listening :
Luca : Last summer I decided not to go on holiday to Greece with my friends, but
do something different.
Klara : So where did you go?
Luca : Well, as I'm studying Biology I thought I'd go to Indonesia to find out
more about the orangutans there. So, I booked a holiday with an
ecotourism company and went to Borneo.
Klara : What was it like?
Luca : A bit of a disaster although I did love the rainforests. When we got to
Jakarta, we caught an internal flight to Borneo, but my luggage never
arrived so, I had to buy new clothes. The next morning, we took a boat up
the river to the orangutan centre and while I was leaning out of the boat
to take photos, I dropped my camera.
Klara : Oh, no. Did you manage to get it back?
Luca : No way, the river's really deep, so I just had to leave it, but I was very
annoyed, but at least I had my phone. It took two days to get to the centre
so while we were sitting on the boat, the guide told us all about the
orangutans and what the conservationists are doing there. It sounded
really exciting. When we arrived, the guide introduced us to the people
working there and then we had dinner.
Klara : What was the food like?
Luca : It was mainly rice and vegetables, but they were very spicy. I don't like
spicy food, so I only ate the rice. By the end of the week, I was eating the
vegetables and fish though I was so hungry.
Klara : Well. I'm glad to hear you're not such a fussy eater anymore. What
did you do every day?
Luca : We got up about six every morning as that's when the sun rises, had
breakfast and then trekked into the forest to learn about the orangutans
from the people who are looking after them.
Klara : Did you feed them?
Luca : No, they're wild animals, not pets. We just observed them, made notes and
took photos. We also learnt about other animals, birds and insects in the
rainforests. Unfortunately, at the end of the first week, a spider bit me
while I was sleeping and my are swelled up.
Klara : So what happened?
Luca : I had to go to hospital- but as the nearest hospital was 200 km away, I
had to go by helicopter. I stayed there for a week all alone and then went
back to the centre, but as soon as I got back I was ill. One of the tourists
was making the dinner that night and he wasn't a good cook. He didn't clean
the fish properly and everybody was sick. I'm staying at home this summer.

People like to be well - dressed, but rarely ask themselves what the clothes they are
wearing are made from. In fact, thousands of animals are killed every day so that rich people
can enjoy wearing the most fashionable and trendiest clothes. Some animals, such as guinea
pigs and rabbits, are used for scientific research. Mice and other animals are experimented
upon by scientists working for companies involved in the manufacture of shampoos that we
use, to keep our hair clean and to look good. We even kill whales. whose oil is used to make
expensive soaps or make up. Other animals, the arctic fox, for example, are killed for their fur
which is used in the manufacture Of expensive coats. Elephants are killed for their ivory, which
is made into jewellery. Crocodiles are killed for their skin, which is used to make shoes. Often
these animals are treated with great cruelty. Some of them are in danger of becoming extinct.
Increasingly, individual people and organizations are working to protect these animals. The
first step in this direction was taken when the Royal Society for the prevention of Cruelty to
Animals (RSPCA) was established all over world. The RSPCA calls on governments to set up
nature reserves to protect such animals. It is illegal to kill any animal on these reserves. At the
same time, strict action has been taken against illegal hunting ever it occurs in the world. The
RSPCA also asks people to stop buying and wearing products from endangered animals. If we
continue killing these animals, we will surely destroy our wildlife environment balance of nature
as well.

Listening :
Interviewer : In today's programme we're talking to Martin Drake about Dr Leelah
Hazzah, an Egyptian conservation biologist and founder of lion
Gurdians, a conservation project in Kenya. Martin, when did Leelah
become interested in lions?
Martin : Well, as a child, her father told her stories about how he listened to lions
roaring at night when he was sleeping on the roof of their house during
the summer. But when he explained that there weren't any lions left in
Egypt, she decided that when she grew up, she would find out how to
save them in other countries.
Interviewer : What happened next?
Martin : She went to America to study conservation biology and then moved to
Kenya to research lions among the Maasai people. It was there that she
saw how quickly lions were disappearing. Did you know that sixty or
fifty years ago there were about 200, 000 lions in Africa, but that number
is under 20, 000 now?
Interviewer : So why are lions disappearing so quickly?
Martin : There are several reasons. People have built houses in the areas that lions
traditionally hunt so they can't find enough food to eat, so they attack the
villagers livestock, you know, their cows and goats. The villagers get
angry with the lions and kill them in order to protect their animals.
Another reason is prestige – in Maasai culture, young men get a lot of
respect from killing a lion. They are even given a lion name which
shows that they are no longer a boy, but a man.
Interviewer : What did Leelah do?
Martin : She lived with the Maasai for a year and listened to their views about
lions. She learnt that they have a love-hate relationship with lions; they
admire their beauty but hate them for eating their cattle. She also
understood the prestige that came from being a lion killer and realized
that she needed to persuade the young men that keeping livestock and
having a job gave them more prestige than killing a lion, so she started to
teach them about the advantages of protecting lions instead.
Interviewer : Is that when she started Lion Gurdians?
Martin : Yes, Lion Gurdians is an organization that employs local people to look
for lions in order to protect them. Remember, these young men already
have the skills needed to track lions in the wild so they are taught to
become lion guardians rather than lion killers. The organization gives
them a job and teaches them to read and write so they can help
conservations with their research.
Interviewer : How successful is the programme?
Martin : Very. Maasai men now have jobs, a regular income and a sense of
purpose. They get to know the lions they are protecting and even give
them names and talk about them with fondness.
Interviewer : And finally, what can other conservationists learn from Lion Gurdians?
Martin : The importance of listening to people in the community and to recognize
how much knowledge local people have. By working together both the
locals and conservations can benefit.
Interviewer : Thank you, Martin. And at 8 o'clock tonight you can see…

David Copperfield
'This is Mr. Quinion, David,' Mr Murdstone said. 'You're going to
work for him at Murdstone and Grinby, the bottle merchants, in London. You'll
earn enough money to pay for your food, and I've arranged a place for you to live.'
I was ten years old and I was going to go to work.
And it was hard work. I went to a dirty old house near the river where rats
lived under the floors. There my job was to wash empty bottles with three other
boys, and I hated it.
One morning, a plump man came to see me with Mr Quinion.
'Ah, Master Copperfield!' the man said 'This is Mr Micawber,' Mr Quinion told
me. 'You will be living at his house.'
And that evening, Mr Micawber took me home. His wife – a thin, tired-
looking lady – was sitting with a baby. The baby was one of twins, and they had a
boy of four and a girl of three.
I soon discovered that the Micawbers were poor and that Mr Micawber owed
money to several people. One morning the police came and took Mr Micawber
away to prison because of his debts. I went to see him there the next Sunday.
'If a man earns twenty pounds a year and spends nineteen pounds, he'll be
happy,' he said. 'But if he spends twenty pounds and a penny, he'll be miserable.'

Hi Heba!
Good to hear from you! Why don't you try visiting old people in
their homes? You could also help disabled children with their work. And
how about looking after the baby animals at Youssef's farm?

Summary of David Copperfield
- David Copperfield grew up with his mother and his stepfather, Mr Murdstone.
- Then David's mother died and Mr Murdstone took him to live with Mr and Mrs
Micawber. David had to leave school and work in a factory. Then Mr Micawber
went to prison and David had nowhere to live.
- Without a home to live in, David visited Aunt Betsey and she took him to live
with her friend, Mr Wickfield. A man called Uriah Heep also lived with Mr
Wickfield and his daughter, Agnes, but David didn't trust him.
- Some time later, Uriah Heep played a trick on Aunt Betsey and took her money
and David worked hard to help her.
- When David found Uriah Heep, he admitted that he took Aunt Betsey's money
and David made him give it back to her. Then David went travelling around
Europe.
- When David returned to England, he married Agnes and he became a successful
writer.
Voluntary Work
Tarek:
In my opinion the Egyptian Food Bank (EFB) is making the world a better
place because it helps people who haven't got enough money for food.
Samir:
I have experienced the work of Tomorrow's Dreamer Youth Association.
In my opinion, it shows young people that they can make a difference, and
it teaches them about other cultures and communities. They are doing a
great job by helping to educate a lot of young people.
Maher:
The Egyptian Red Crescent helps a lot of people every day. When there
is a big health problem, we always see the doctors from the Red
Crescent on TV. But they also work with communities to stop health
problems from happening. One day, I want to do some voluntary work.

Listening (1) :
Charles Dickens
Today millions of people know Charles Dickens for the brilliant books that
he wrote. He was a great storyteller. But Dickens didn't only want to entertain
people with his books, he also wanted to change their opinions about the world
they lived in. He hoped his readers would then do something to make the world a
better place.
Dickens was most interested in helping poor children because of his own
difficult childhood. When he was 12 years old, Charles' father was sent to prison.
Like Davide Copperfield, he had to leave school and work to support his family
instead. The Poor Law of 1834 removed support for most poor people so their
lives were hard. When he wrote David Copperfield between 1849 and 1850,
Dickens wanted to show us that not all poor people were bad. Like his father, Mr.
Micawber went to prison because he had no money but after he left prison, he
wanted to help David because he was a good man. In Dickens' books, people who
worked hard were also often rewarded. For example, at the end of the book,
David Copperfield becomes a successful writer.
Dickens also wanted to say that rich people needed to do something to help the
poor. In David Copperfield, a man called Mr Wickfield helps David by giving
him a room. Dickens thought that people like Mr Wickfield were honest and good
and deserved to be rewarded. Other people in the book, on the other hand,
were bad and he had unhappy end.
Listening (2) :
Let's talk about how to write a great short story. It's important to plan your
story. It should have four parts. At the start, we find out when and where the
story is happening and we meet the main character. Don't spend too much time
describing places and people- your characters need to do something from the start.
In the second part of the story, the main character has a problem or
something goes wrong. It's a good idea to have two or more problems. After
that, the problem or problems are solved and everything is OK again. In this third
part of the story, there should be a surprise for the reader. Finally, we find out
what the characters do next, so, what happens to them when things are OK again.

Bats are wild animals. They are the only mammals that are able to fly. Bats can be found
almost anywhere in the whole world except in very cold or very hot countries. They are mostly found in
tropical countries. Although we normally think of bats as animals that live in caves, they actually prefer
trees as their home. In order not to be seen, they use their skin as camouflage. This helps them to
make homes under big trees or under bark of trees. They like caves too, as they find it a suitably dark
place to sleep during the day. Bats are nocturnal animals. This means that they rest by day and hunt at
night. Most bats have very good eyesight and a keen sense of smell. A bat can see better in the dark
than most of us do! A bat's diet includes fruits, nectar, meat from small animals like frogs and fish as well
as insects. Their feeding habits actually help plants and trees to reproduce. The seeds from the fruits they
eat are dropped onto the ground, which in turn grow into new plants. Bats are therefore quite useful animals.
Most bats rest, sleep and hibernate in an upside-down position. They hang on to branches or
rocks with their feet. To do this they have a locking mechanism on the tendons in their feet which stop
them from slipping. The advantage of this is that the energy they spend hanging on is greatly reduced.
Once the tendons are locked, the muscles in their legs and feet can relax. Even dead bats stay hanging.

Raneem El Weleily
Raneem El Weleily is one of Egypt's most
famous faces. She was world champion of the squash
World Open in 2017, when she beat another Egyptian,
Nour El Sherbini. She also twice reached the final in 2014
and 2016 and was the world's top women squash player
in 2019. Raneem was born in Alexandria in 1989. She first
played for Egypt's squash team when she was only ten.
She became World Junior Champion in both 2005 and
2007 before winning her first competition as an adult in
2009. She is now married to another top squash player,
Tarek Momen. When she is not playing squash, she likes
to listen to music and do puzzles, but it is her success at
squash that has inspired many young Egyptians to play
the game.
Mohamed Elneny
Mohamed Elneny is a famous Egyptian footballer.
He is a strong player, and he has played for the Egyptian
national team more than 60 times. He has scored more than
six times for Egypt, and he is often on television. Elneny was
born in 1992 and moved from his boyhood club Al Ahly, in
Cairo, to Al-Mokawlon in Nasr City in 2010. He played for
Al-Mokawlon at the same time as Mohamed Salah, and the two
footballers became good friends. In 2013, Elneny went to
Switzerland and joined Basel, one year after Salah went to the
same club. Then Elneny went to London, England to join Arsenal.
He is still good friends with Salah. 'I'm happy to have been with
him since the beginning and he has not changed,' he says.

Listening
Presenter: Many people want to work with animals or to help the environment. a
good way to get experience of this kind of work is as a volunteer. This
means working without money, sometimes in another country, and it can
be very hard work, but most young people love the experience. We spoke
to three young student volunteers to find out what they did during their
summer holidays last year.
Adam : Hi, my name's Adam. I spent the summer working with an organization
based on the Red Sea coast in Egypt. It's a beautiful place and many people
go there for a holiday.
Most tourists like to go diving to see the colourful fish. However, there are
so many tourists know that some of the fish are finding life difficult. My job
was to help monitor the impact tourists are having. So, while the tourists
were at the beach, or swimming in the sea, I was on a boat counting and
monitoring marine life in different areas. It's important to know where the
fish are and how many there are of them.
Then, at the end of the day, while the tourists were eating in restaurants, I
was with a team helping to clean the beaches. It was hard work, but I really
enjoyed it. I'm sure my work has helped people to understand the impact
tourists have on the Red Sea.
Lara : My name's Lara and I've recently returned from Greece. I spent most of
my time on a quiet beach watching big turtles! These beautiful animals
visit the same beach every year to lay their eggs. They lay a lot of eggs, but
many of the eggs are taken by birds, or flooded by the rain and the sea.
These turtles are endamgered, so each one of their eggs is important. It
was my job to help protect the eggs and stop tourists visiting the areas
where the eggs lie in the sand. It can be a bit of a disaster when tourists
visit and put sun umbrellas in the same place as the turtle eggs!
The work was very tiring because we often worked at night. So when my
friends were sleeping, I was there on the beach! But it was a great place
and I love observing the big, slow turtles when they left the beach and
slowly swam off into the sea. In my opinion, it's a great project and I've
learned a lot more about conservation, too.
Munir : I'm Munir and I've just spent an amazing few weeks in the north of Thailand.
It's a very isolated area and I had to take an internal flight to get there.
Thailand is known for its elephants, and many farmers use them on their
farms. The elephants are also used to carry tourists. Not all the elephants
have av easy life, so I worked with conservationists who were trying to help
elephants return to a more natural life in the wild. The elephants are very
intelligent and it was amazing helping to feed them.
It was not easy work, though. The rainforest was very hot, and there were a
lot of dangerous snakes and insects. On one day, a spider bit me on the hand
when I was putting something in my pocket. My hand swelled up and I
thought, Oh, no! I have a big problem! But local people told me that the
spider wasn't a dangerous one, and after a day or two my hand was fine. I
don't think everyone would find life in Thailand easy, but I loved it. I've
even learnt some Thai. Now I can communicate with Thai people as well as
the elephants.

Making new Friends
Reading
New in Town
It's day one at a new school in a new town. You've got all the paper and pens
you need. You're wearing cool new clothes. But you don't know anyone and
you're not sure where to go. Starting at a new school feels so hard because you
don't have any friends there to help you. It's very easy to feel stressed, but life
will get easier. Here's some advice to help you.
Don't take it for granted that other students will start a conversation. Ask
other people questions about themselves. Everyone likes talking about
themselves. Try asking them about their favourite subjects or which sports they
like and don't ask too many personal questions.
You can only make friends if you spend time with them! The best way to do
this is to join clubs or do team sports you like. Go online or look at the
noticeboard at your school and find out what's happening. If you're part of a
team, your teammates will feel connected to you and that connection could
become a friendship.
While you're busy talking to other students, don't forget to study. Remember
to do your homework so you don't have any problems with your teachers. Those
teachers can also give you some advice on how to make friends and enjoy life in
your new town. Talk to them too.

Subject : Help! I don't have any friends at my new school.
Dear Aunt Carol,
I think it is difficult to make friends.
I don't have any friends at my new school.
I am always on my own at break-time. Yesterday,
I talked to a girl in my class. I asked her if she
wanted to do some homework with me but she said no.
I need some advice about how to make friends. Do you
have any advice for me?
To : problems@teen_magazine.com
Subject : Help! I'm really stressed!
Dear Aunt Carol,
I always work very hard at school, but I'm
really stressed about some exams I have next week.
The first two exams are 3 hours long and will be very
difficult. The last exam is in a subject I'm not very
good at. I've spent a lot of time in the library this week,
but that hasn't helped me feel better.
I need some advice about how to relax. Please.

Listening (1) :
Radio show host : Good evening everyone. Welcome to the show. Tonight, we're
talking about bullying. Unfortunately, a lot of teenagers are bullied
at school, and this can have some very negative effects on them.
We're going to talk to a 15-year-old boy called Ali, who is being
bullied. Ali………are you on the line?
Ali : Hi, Seleem. How are you?
Radio show host : I'm well, thank you. How are you this evening?
Ali : I'm OK, but last week was really hard. Two boys in my class
are bullying me because I am not very good at football. I like to
play chess more than football. Last week they hid my rucksack.
It had all my school books in it. I hate going to school now.
Radio show host : Oh, no! That's terrible. Did you tell a teacher?
Ali : No, I didn't. I was too scared. I've just moved to this town, so I
don't know the teachers very well.
Radio show host : Well, Ali, I really think you should talk to a teacher. Your teacher
can talk to the bullies and make it clear that they shouldn't behave
like this. If you do nothing, the bullying will just continue.
Ali : Yes, ……..you're right…There's one teacher that I get along
well with. I'll talk to him.
Listening (2) :
Ola : So, do you think moving to a new school in another town is a good thing or a
bad thing for teenagers?
Lina : As far as I'm concerned, It's not a good idea. If you move to a new school,
you have to leave your old friends behind and it's really difficult to make
new friends.
Ola : I'm not so sure about that. I think you can make new friends if you're nice to
other people and start conversations with them. For example, I'm sure you
would make lots of new friends!
Lina : That's true. It is possible to make new friends, but it takes time. You'll be
really lonely for the first few months.
Ola : In my opinion, it's a good experience to have because it makes you stronger.
Lina : I know that it can make people stronger, but I would prefer to just stay
with the people I know.

Bullying is generally cruel or violent behavior towards an individual or even a group of various
aged people. It is demeaning and can cause untold stress, anger and suffering to those on the
receiving end, which in some cases can lead to suicide. Bullying may occur in both verbal and physical
forms, bullying that doesn't involve hitting and kicking can be just as damaging as actual full out
fighting. Some of the ways verbal bullying occurs are by, making fun of others. Also, threatening,
making people feel uncomfortable or scared and act in ways they prefer not to. Many people wonder,
why does bullying occur? In some of the cases, bullies hurt people because it makes them feel
powerful and in charge. They may see it as being popular in some cases a bully has been bullied by
someone else in his life and is trying to take revenge.
a) Bullying at schools.
b) Friendship.

Unit 5
Communication
Reading
The internet of things
Linking the the world
Communication is no longer about people talking to one another, but about
machines talking to machines. This is known as the Internet of Things (IOT).
Technology is developing so fast that experts believe everyone will be connected
to IOT in a few years.
Connecting our homes
Many things in our homes are going to be connected to the IOT. Already,
people can control their heating and lighting from their phones, but in the future
computers will make the decisions for us. They'll even be able to say when the
rubbish bins need to be emptied and control how much water we use.
No more driving
Cars can already connect to the internet using smartphones,
but imagine if you can get a driverless car to come and collect
you using an app on your phone. All driverless cars will be electric
and much cleaner than petrol ones. Experts think our roads will be
safer as there will be fewer accidents using driverless cars.
Possible problems
Many people don't think IOT is safe enough yet.
Computers collect information about people and businesses
which criminals can steal. They use this information to hack
into organization like hospitals, power stations and airports,
and cause major security problems.
Working together
Last week, I was playing online when I saw
an advert for a free game. I clicked on the link and
wrote my name, address and some bank details.
When I tried to download the game, nothing happened.
It was a scam.
My dad was furious because they stole money from
his bank account and my computer stopped working properly!
Don't click on links you don't recognize and never give your
personal details on a strange website. Oh, and remember to use
anti-virus software to stop thieves.

Listening
Hassan : Last week I was reading about a new online game and saw an advert that
said I could get this game for free. All I had to do was complete a form with
my name, email address and credit card details. I don't have a credit card,
but I sometimes use my dad's card to buy things. Of course it was a scam.
They just wanted the credit card details so they could steal money, but it
looked just a real advert. I think lots of kids would be so excited to get a free
game they wouldn't think carefully about it.
Laila : I'm leaving school this year and I want to get a job in a bank. My
teacher told me that employers often look online to see what we've
posted, so I decided to google my name to see what they may find. It was
scary. All the photos and the 'funny' comments I'd ever posted were
there and I couldn't delete them. I didn't realize it's almost impossible
to remove personal data from the internet.
Saeed : I love reading my friend's social media posts, but some people write really
horrible things about other teenagers. One of my friends posted a photo of
himself on his new bike and he got lots of rude comments about how he
looked and how ugly his bike is. I couldn't believe it! These kids would
never, never bully my friend at school, so why do it online? I'm really
careful about what I say on the internet now!

Learning from Literature
Reading
Robert Louis Stevenson
Robert Louis Stevenson was born in Scotland in 1850 and died 44 years
later in Samoa, a small island in the south Pacific. He was not always well because
the weather in Edinburg was too cold for him. When he was a child he couldn't
always go to school. He studied to become a lawyer at Edinburg University, but
he always wanted to write. At the age of 21 he decided to become a full-time writer.
He often travelled to warmer places to try to improve his health. For a while
he lived in France and this was where he met his wife, Fanny. She was from the
United States, so Stevenson also travelled to America with her.
Although he is best known for his novels, like Kidnapped and Strange Case
of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Stevenson also wrote many poems and travel books.
His first successful novel was Treasure Island – an adventure story about pirates.
His books are still very popular today and many of them have been made into films.
Khaled, 4:04 PM
The words Stevenson has used very clearly describe the situations he's
writing about and I really like that. I also think the poem's subject is very
interesting because everyone feels differently in different seasons. In my
opinion, poets should write about everyday life. However, I think the
second verse is too long and its rhythm is too slow.
Hamid, 5:36 PM
I love the language in the poem, especially the way Stevenson describes the
light at different times of day. I also think the second verse is great because
the rhymes in it are so clever. However, in my opinion, the poem's subject
is quite boring because going to bed and getting up aren't very interesting
activities. I think poets should write about more exciting things.
Listening :
Teacher : This week we're studying the Scottish writer, Robert Louis Stevenson, in
particular his poetry not his novels. Have any of you heard about him or
read any of his works?
Nesma : Didn't he write Treasure Island? I tried reading it last year, but it was
a bit boring, so I decided to watch the film instead.
Teacher : Did you like it?
Nesma : Yes, it was really good. I love adventure films and I enjoy reading
adventure stories too. I just found Treasure Island a bit difficult.
Teacher : Well, it was written a long time ago. He was born in 1850 and Treasure
Island was published in 1881. And Wafaa, have you read any of his books?
Wafaa : I don't think so. I prefer reading romantic stories and poems.
Teacher : Well, Stevenson wrote poems too. In fact he wrote all kinds of things. He
began writing stories when he was a child and unwell.
Unfortunately, Stevenson was often very ill and he finished writing
Treasure Island while he was ill in bed. He continued to write more books,
including a collection of poems called A Child's Garden of Verses and he
also travelled a lot to get away from the cold Scottish weather.
Nesma : Where did he go?
Teacher : As a young man, he went to Europe, France and Switzerland mainly. In
fact, his first book was about his travels in France. He and his family loved
sailing and they wanted to sail from America, where they were living, to
the South Pacific. The family chose to build a house in Samoa and the
Stevenson family lived there until he died in 1894.
Now for this week's lesson I want you to choose a story or poem by
Stevenson and bring it to class to discuss. Then……………

People have recited poems for thousands of years. The first poets probably told or sang poems
to people at special events. Some of the poems were very long and they told a story about history.
Perhaps the oldest poem is the Epic of Gilgamesh, about a king in Iraq. It is very long and is about
4,000 years old.
Arabic poetry was the first to use rhyme: people began to write rhymes in English poems in about
the twelfth century. Poets have written hundreds of kinds of poem since then. Some continue to tell
stories, others have silly rhymes to make people laugh, and some do not rhyme at all. Most poems,
however, make people think and sometimes see the world in a different way.

Penfriends
Communication is easy today. Many people use apps on their smartphones
to talk to their friends. When we send a message to a friend, we take it for
granted that he or she will reply very soon.
Before the internet, people wrote letters and many people had penfriends.
These were people they did not always meet, but people chose to write to them
about their lives. The letters sometimes took a long time to arrive, but penfriends
were very popular.
An example is Nellie Roberts and Daphne Meech. These two Australian
women are now 90 years old. They first decided to write to each other in the
1930s, and are now perhaps the longest two people ever to be friends. Nellie
Roberts first had penfriends when she was 10, but only one penfriend continued to
write to her. Like Nillie, Daphne lived on a farm and the two women enjoyed
writing about their lives. As well as letters, they sent each other black and white
photos. They did not meet until 1962, 30 years after their first letter.
Nellie still prefers writing letters, and says that she is never going to use
technology to communicate.
Surprisingly, there are now many online clubs for penfriends, They
encourage people to write letters to penfriends around the world, and they are
very successful. Many say that writing letters is relaxing and a warmer way to
communicate than with an email or text. You do not need apps, passwords or
anti-virus software. As Nellie says, "Just a pen and paper will do."
Reader's reviews of one of Robert Louis Stevenson's novels:
A fantastic adventure story!
In my opinion, Robert Louis Stevenson's Kidnapped is not as Treasure Island
or as exciting as The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, but it is full of
action and really fun. I enjoyed it very much. The story happens in 1751 and
it begins when seventeen-year-old David Balfour goes to stay with his
mysterious uncle in Scotland. His uncle is a cruel man and he tricks David.
He arranges for a ship to take David away to America. However, David
manages to escape with a friend and that is just the start of their adventures.
I recommend this book to everyone who likes adventure stories.
James (UK)
My favourite book!
Kidnapped has so much action and adventure! This really is my favourite
book. David Balfour's uncle tries to send him away to America on a ship,
but David escapes and makes friends with a man called Alan Breck. Together
they travel through Scotland and face many dangerous and exciting situations.
I love all the details about the places they visit. You can really feel like you
are in Scotland. I will definitely read this book again.
Tara (Ireland)
Listening :
Interviewer : Hello, today I'm talking to Professor Marwan Shabana, a history teacher
at the University of Cairo. He's just written a very interesting book about
the future of technology. And it's not all good news, is it Professor?
Professor : That's true, although no one knows what will happen in the future, of course!
Interviewer : What are you worried about?
Professor : Well, there was a time in history when very few people wrote about
what happened in their lives. We call these the Dark Ages, because
we don't know much about this time. I'm worried that we are going
to have an information Dark Age in the future.
Interviewer : Why is that?
Professor : Today we use computer technology for almost all our information.
We use computers for our writing, photographs, music and films.
This is fantastic, of course, but what will happen to it in the future?
The technology of today quickly becomes old. I think that we'll lose
a lot of material because new technology won't be able to read it.
Interviewer : But we'll copy all the important information onto our new technology, won't we?
Professor : I agree, we will. But history teaches us that there are some things we
don't think are important today that will be very important in the
future. These are the things I worry that we will lose. People won't
think something is important to save, or we will forget the passwords to
give us this information.

Cyberbullying
The word cyberbullying refers to bullying on the internet or on a smartphone. Most
teenagers have experienced some kind of cyberbullying, and it affects both girls and boys.
One problem is getting offensive messages on social media, in texts or emails. Another
problem is when bullies post personal information or pictures of someone. Sometimes it can
be anonymous, and that means the victims don't know who is attacking them, which can be
very stressful.
Teenagers need to know that they can talk to an adult about what is happening. It's impossible
to report bullies on websites and the police can also help. Any kind of bullying can have serious
consequences, so most schools have systems to deal with cyberbullying. It is very important to
report any problems and help everyone to stay safe online.

Tourist or Traveller?
Some people say that a tourist visits the sights, but a traveler talks to the local people. This
is because different people want different experiences when they go on holiday.
Some tourists prefer food which is familiar to them and so they often look for famous fast
food restaurants, or food from their own country. They want to see the famous museums,
monuments and beaches, and they will usually speak in their own language when they go
abroad.
On the other hand, travelers will usually learn a few phrases in the local language, and they
want to eat in typical cafes and restaurants. Sometimes they will look for places to visit that are
less famous because they enjoy finding something a little different.
Today both travelers and tourists are learning about their impact on the environment. It
seems that whatever type of traveler you are, it's always good to respect the places you visit
so that other people can enjoy them, too.
1- Why do travelers go to foreign countries?

Mary Shelley
In 2018, it was two hundred years since the publication of the Gothic novel Frankenstein, or
the Modern Prometheus. It was written by Mary Shelley, who was born in London in 1797. She
was the daughter of the famous writer, Mary Wollstonecraft, and the philosopher, William
Godwin. Mary didn't go to school, but she educated herself using her father's library at home.
In 1812, Mary met the poet, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and in 1816, they married each other in
France. Then, in 1817, Mary wrote a travel book about the journey she took with Shelley to
France and Switzerland. After her husband's death in 1822, Marry returned to England and
she continued to write novels. Many people think that The Last Man (1826) is her best book,
but Frankenstein is Mary Shelley's most famous novel. It tells the story of what happens when
a scientist creates a human being. There have been many different films about the story.
Some of them are frightening but others are comedies.

: The Ideal person whom I admire most
Hi Adel
How are you? I'm going to tell you about the ideal person whom I admire
most in my life. She is my mother. I love her very much. She always looks after
me when I am ill. She also cooks well. She is kind and helpful. She always smiles
to us even though she is very tired. She is doing her best to make us happy. Indeed,
she is the person who deserves my love and respect. What about you?
and live with a coffin maker called Mr. Sowerberry. There Oliver was hit, insulted
and locked in a cellar. For these reason Oliver decides to run away to London.
In London Oliver finds himself among a gang of thieves who try to teach
Oliver how to steal but Oliver is lucky when Mr. Brownlow, the kind
gentleman, decides to take Oliver to live with him. Unfortunately, the gang are
able to return Oliver back to them. During one of their robberies, Oliver was
shot and finds himself in the house of Mrs Maylie and her niece Rose. Rose and
Mrs Maylie help Oliver to find his brother and restore his money.
Finally Mr. Bronlow adopts Oliver and all the gang members are arrested
and sent to prison. Indeed it is a wonderful book and I really recommend it to
all my friends to read it.
3) Write an essay on the internet of Things, possible advantages, disadvantages
and how to protect yourself online.
The Internet of Things (IOT)
In the following lines I'm going to write about the Internet of Things.
Indeed, it is one of the most important topics that deserves to be discussed.
At first, I'd like to explain what is meant by IOT. IOT means things that we use
in our daily life is now connected with the internet, mobiles, computers, and
applications. Mobiles, computers are the robotic support system that we’re
already using from years.Technology is developing so fast that experts believe
everyone will be connected to the IOT in a few years. Like anything else IOT
has advantages and disadvantages.
We can use IOT devices in our homes for various things but mainly right
now, it’s more focused on home security, entertainment, and remote support.
But whatever it is, it will try to automate our daily home life and activities. It
means our homes appliances now connecting to the internet. Obviously, we will
be able to share them with others. But what about the disadvantages.
When you use IOT devices then it means you and your personal data is
connected to the internet and service provider. Whatever you’re doing at home
is easily trackable. 50% of the services that we’re using today in the home will
be automatic within the next 10 years. Every company trying to reduce cost by
doing automation in business. Human labor is also the cost and consumes lots
of time. But IOT or technology does not impact the life of rich people, but low-
income level people.
Finally, I'd like to talk about how to protect ourselves online. We mustn't
add our personal details to a website. We must always change our passwords.
We must also use anti-virus software. We mustn't save our banks details on
websites. Finally we should make sure that we lock our phones and our social
media accounts.
5) Write an email to a friend who has moved to a new town. Include some advice
about how to make new friends and arrange a time when you can visit them.
:
:
: How to make new friends.
Dear friend
How are you? I hope you are fine. I know that living a new
town is very difficult at the beginning but gradually you will get
accustomed to it and have many friends. As you know that it is not that easy
matter to make new friends now but I will try to give you some advice on
how to make new friends. Don't take it for granted that other students will
start a conversation. Ask other people questions about themselves but don't
ask personal questions. You can only make friends if you spend time with
them! The best way to do this is to join clubs or do team sports you like. If
you're part of a team, your teammates will feel connected to you and that
connection could become a friendship. Also, ask your teachers for some
advice on how to make friends and enjoy life in your new town.
Finally, I wish you good luck with your new town and new school.
Frankly, I missed you so much so I have decided to visit you. What about
the next weekend. Does it suit you or are you busy on this day?
Waiting soon for your reply.
Yours
8) Write an email to a friend telling him about a place you would like to visit
on holiday. Include reasons why you want to go there, what you would do
there and what time of year you would like to go.
:
:
: A place I would like to visit on holiday.
Dear friend
How are you? I hope you are fine. As you know people like
to visit different places on their holidays. They want to visit these places for
also different reasons. Some people like to visit historic places, others prefer
coastal cities. For me, I would like to visit Mersa Matrouh specially in
summer. I choose this place for many reasons. Firstly, Mersa Matrouh is a
coastal city on the Mediternean Sea. As a result, its weather is fine and
wonderful in summer. Secondly, the water of the sea there is so clear and
clean so I enjoy swimming during my summer holiday. Thirdly, Mersa
Matrouh has wonderful markets, restaurants, hotels and malls. At night, I
usually go out shopping and have dinner in one of the biggest restaurants
there. Really, I recommend Mersa Matrouh to any one who wants to enjoy a
wonderful holiday. What about you?
Waiting soon for your reply.
Yours
9) Write a summary of a story you read and enjoyed.
A summary of a story I read and enjoyed
In the following lines I'm going to write about a summary of a book
I read and enjoyed. This story is called Oliver Twist by the English writer Charles
Dickens. The story starts when a young boy is born in a poor workhouse. After his
birth, Oliver's mother dies. Oliver has to live in different places during his childhood.
At first, Oliver lives in a house with some other orphans where they are
given little food and they don't have the chance to go to school. Then Oliver goes
to live in the workhouse where he was born. Unfortunately, life in the workhouse
was miserable and uncomfortable. After that Oliver goes to work and live with
a coffin maker called Mr. Sowerberry. There Oliver was hit, insulted and locked
in a cellar. For these reason Oliver decides to run away to London.
In London Oliver finds himself among a gang of thieves who try to teach
Oliver how to steal but Oliver is lucky when Mr. Brownlow, the kind gentleman,
decides to take Oliver to live with him. Unfortunately, the gang are able to return
Oliver back to them. During one of their robberies, Oliver was shot and finds himself
in the house of Mrs Maylie and her niece Rose. Rose and Mrs Maylie help Oliver
to find his brother and restore his money.
Finally Mr. Bronlow adopts Oliver and all the gang members are arrested
and sent to prison. Indeed it is a wonderful book and I really recommend it to

10) Write about a website that you think is useful for school work. Explain
what information is on the site and why it is useful for students.
A website that I think is useful for school work
In the following lines I'm going to write about a website that I think
is useful for school work. This website is the Egyptian Knowledge Bank (EKB).
The Egyptian Knowledge Bank has two main portals; each is divided
into a number of secondary ones. The first portal is the information portal, the
largest digital library and online knowledge hub providing students, researchers,
teachers. Children and all Egyptians with access to free education and scientific
publications in various branches of knowledge. All Egyptians can easily access
this portal by registering on www.ekb.eg with their National ID and e-mail.
The second main portal on EKB is for the production and dissemination
of local academic information of Egyptian universities, institutes, research
centers and any research or academic body within Egypt, through an integrated
electronic publishing system in accordance with international standards.
To sum up, this website (EKB) will be all the Egyptian students's gate for
education to cope up with education with technology.
11) Write a blog post on the age you think children should start using the internet.
The age I think childten start using the internet
No one can deny the role modern technology plays in our life. We live
now in an automated world. It has become easy for any one to access
the internet. But although man has benefited a lot from modern
technology, it still has its serious impact on him.
Many children nowadays use, or at least have access to the
internet. But most people are blinded by all the benefits of the internet,
and fail to notice any of the problems that can come from overuse.
Since the internet is a new technology, not many studies have been
done to determine how beneficial or detrimental it can be to children.
Although the internet may have many benefits to children, it can also
be very harmful to them. One of the most obvious problems with
children using the internet is the chance of getting addicted. Internet
addiction is a serious thing, but hasn’t drawn much attention due to the
fact that it is a newer problem in society.
To conclude, I think children can use the internet but under strict
vigilance and observation of their parents.

Dreams are necessary. Without dreams, there will be no ambition to chase. There will be no
goal to reach. We will all be nothing without dreams. Not having dreams is like chasing a traceless
murder. It is like following an invisible shadow. We must know what we want to do and follow that
ambition. We can’t achieve anything in life without goals, and for these goals, we need to dream.
Most people have dreams. Big ones or small ones. Even the most successful people had dreams
and that is what has made them what they are today. Dreaming is essential for a human being.
Without dreams, you will lose interest in life and finally hate to live life. You will be bored and tired of
the same monotonous routines of your daily life and will not even find interest in the most exciting
things. Only with dreams, will you find a purpose to live your life. You will start working hard towards
the dream and will never lose interest in life. You will never tire and always be motivated. This is the
best way to become successful.

Yoga is a system of physical and mental discipline which originated in India long ago. Yoga is
an important system of complementary or alternative therapy. Yoga teachers prescribe specific
asanas and breathing exercises for specific diseases. Yoga has beneficial results in treating many
diseases like diabetes, asthma, hypertension, obesity, etc.
Yoga also helps maintain one’s youth and vitality. Yoga exercises help to control, purify and
coordinate the nervous system. Doing yoga regularly rids the body of toxins, thereby improving
general health. It also rids the mind of impure impulses leading to contentment and inner peace.
Meditation is a mental discipline by which one tries to attain a deeper state of relaxation or
awareness. It involves focusing one’s attention on a single point of reference.
Regular practice of the yoga in the morning provides outer and inner relief by keeping away
from the countless ailments at the physical and mental level. Practicing postures or asanas
strengthens the body and mind as well as creates the feeling of well being. It sharpens the human
mind, improves intelligence and help in high level of concentration by steadying the emotions and
feelings. The feeling of well being creates helping nature within us and thus enhances the social
well being. Improved concentration level helps in meditating and provides calming effect and inner
peace to the mind. Yoga is like a practical philosophy which develops self-discipline and self
awareness within us through regular practice.

Telepathy is one of the extraordinary powers that are related to mind reading. Telepathy is the
communication or transformation of thoughts, feelings, or knowledge from one person to another
without the use of the senses of hearing, sight, smell, taste, or touch. Telepathy is one of three
kinds of the Extra Sensory Perception (ESP)’the perception beyond the senses’; the other two are
clairvoyance: the ability to visualize or perceive remote objects and events, and precognition: the
ability to foretell future events. Most scientists doubt the existence of telepathy and other forms of
ESP because rigorous tests have failed to produce any reliable evidence for psychic phenomena.
The existence of telepathy has been a controversial topic for a very long period of time; some
people still consider it as an illusion. Yet, there are those who believe it exists and those who doubt
it. Many scientists have come up with convincing claims that support the existence of telepathy.
Moreover, there are many real examples of existed telepathy in real life that we encounter every day.
Telepathy is created under vague conditions. It might seem like a super natural phenomenon
while it’s not. However, People don’t want to accept it socially because they think that telepathy will
violate their freedom and privacy.
Telepathy doesn't contradict with science. In fact, it expands our ideas, and proves that the
human mind is not just nothing but the activity of the brain. It's a mysterious secret that no one until
now is able to undercover. Finally, we hope one day, scientists will be able to explain such strange
phenomenon.

Bats are wild animals.They are the only mammals that are able to fly. Bats can be found
almost anywhere in the whole world except in very cold or very hot countries. They are mostly found in
tropical countries. Although we normally think of bats as animals that live in caves, they actually prefer
trees as their home. In order not to be seen, they use their skin as camouflage. This helps them to
make homes under big trees or under bark of trees. They like caves too, as they find it a suitably dark
place to sleep during the day. Bats are nocturnal animals. This means that they rest by day and hunt at
night. Most bats have very good eyesight and a keen sense of smell. A bat can see better in the dark
than most of us do! A bat's diet includes fruits, nectar, meat from small animals like frogs and fish as well
as insects. Their feeding habits actually help plants and trees to reproduce. The seeds from the fruits they
eat are dropped onto the ground, which in turn grow into new plants. Bats are therefore quite useful animals.
Most bats rest, sleep and hibernate in an upside-down position. They hang on to branches or
rocks with their feet. To do this they have a locking mechanism on the tendons in their feet which stop
them from slipping. The advantage of this is that the energy they spend hanging on is greatly reduced.
Once the tendons are locked, the muscles in their legs and feet can relax. Even dead bats stay hanging.

People may be divided into two types, winners and losers. Because our families and friends have
a great influence on us as we grow, we are born hopeless and dependent on our environment.
Winners are able to change their situations and become independent by being responsible for their
own lives. They don't blame others for their mistakes, they do their own thinking, they listen to evaluate
what they say, and then they make up their minds.
Although they may fail at times, yet they keep self-confidence. Winners overcome their bad
experiences. They enjoy work, play, food and the world of nature. They freely enjoy themselves but
they can postpone it if duty calls.
Losers, on the other hand never learn to take responsibility for their own lives. There are many
causes why people can become losers; disease, poor nutrition, cruelty, unhappy relationships and bad
experiences. These can interfere with the normal progress towards becoming a winner. But whereas
winners fight these situations, losers hang onto them and use them as excuses. Losers usually feel
anxious, unhappy and bored. They are afraid to try new things and often repeat their own mistakes
again and again. Losers spend their lives waiting for something wonderful to happen to save them
from their problems with their lives but never try to change.

Nowadays, a lot of people are using social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Instgram and so on.
Since the Internet has propagated rapidly, social media have progressed a lot. People are almost using
smart phones, I-phones or comfortable devices which can access to internet. It helps contact friends,
family, and other people even though they live far away. It could be, however, abused, if you don’t use

diseases because social media help express their feelings or thought easily. Also, through social media,

it leads naturally mental and physical disorders. Social media also doesn’t help for their studies or talents.
I did surveys about relationships between using social media and studying last semester. Most students
answered using social media is not helpful to study. Also, students who got good grades spend just a

Hypnosis is one of the techniques that can be used for controlling people's minds.
While in a deep trance, people can be told to do something at a specific time or at a certain
signal. They can be told that they won't remember what has been said once out of the trance.
This is called a post-hypnotic suggestion. It is still uncertain whether a subject can be made
to carry out an action that otherwise would be acceptable in that person's mind. Yet another
technique is called brainwashing.
Brainwashing entails forcing people to believe something, usually something false, by
continually telling them or showing them evidence that it is supposedly true and preventing
them from thinking about it properly or considering other evidence. Brainwashing can take
extreme forms. For example, brainwashing can be done by first causing a complete
breakdown of individuals through acts such as starving them, preventing them from sleeping,
intimidating them, and keeping them in a state of constant fear. When the individuals lose
their sense of reality, new ideas can be planted in their minds.

Dreams have interested, puzzled, and even frightened people. They thought that dreams
always came true, and that they came from something outside the person dreaming.
Since the end of the 19th century, physicians, psychologists and other scientists have been
studying dreams. Although they still have much to learn, they think that dreams are created
by the dreamer granted, or in which they become somebody they would like to be. These are
wish-fulfilling dreams. They occasionally dream they are being chased by robbers, or are in
danger from fire or flood. These frightening dreams are called nightmares. People usually
have nightmares when they are upset about something.
Studies about the causes of dreams show many reasons. For example, changes in the
brain occur during sleep, and these are probably related to dreaming. But no one knows
enough yet about the brain changes in dreaming to say exactly what they are. A dreamer’s

health affects his dreams. A person who is ill will have different kinds of dreams from those
of one who is well. If a person is hungry, or cold, or tired, his dreams may include these
feelings. In addition, a large part of any dream comes from the events of the day before.
Often the person or situations in a night dream are those the dreamer met during the day.
The feelings of happiness or disappointment which came out in dreams were probably in the
dreamer before. All that dream is to give them an outlet.

Do you think it is the brain or the heart? What hurts or feels the best when you see
the person you love?
The brain plays a major part in your life. The brain helps us to sometimes suppress
pain. People can be shot and not feel it because of their adrenaline. When you see the
person you love the reason your heart starts to beat fast is because of adrenaline. The brain
sends signals to the adrenal gland, which then secretes hormones and then they go to the
heart which causes the heart to beat faster.
Your brain puts together all of the thoughts as to why you love or like a person and your
heart eventually feels it. Your brain tells you you like or love someone and your heart feels
the emotion. I do not know exactly where the heart came into play and who started the
words heart break because we all know your heart doesn't really break. I think your heart
beats faster when you are nervous. I do think though the brain is where this all begins. We
all know if you are brain dead you are technically dead because your brain tells your body
what to produce and what to feel.

Once Wealth and Poverty approached a merchant and introduced themselves as
( 7 marks )
visitors. The merchant offered his salutatios to both of them and said: “May I know what
brings you to my humble shop?” Wealth said: “We want you to judge and tell us who is
more beautiful between us two?” The merchant was in a fix. If he were to declare wealth
more beautiful than poverty, poverty would curse him. If he were to declare poverty as
more beautiful than wealth, wealth would forsake him. However, he regained his
composure and said: “I have great respect for you both. Would you please act according
to my instructions? Then only I can judge properly.” The visitors agreed. He said:
“Mother wealth, would you please go to the entrance (gates) and walk into the house?
Mother, Poverty! Would you please walk from here towards the gates? I can have a good
look at you both, from near and far.” The two visitors did walk as the merchant wished
them to. Then the merchant happily declared: “Mother wealth! You appear very beautiful
when you enter the house. Mother Poverty! You look very beautiful when you leave the
house!” The visitors appreciated the wisdom of the merchant. Wealth happily stayed in
his house while poverty cheerfully walked away. When a serious pronlem faces us, if we
