The best home In London?
This is Rory Blake’s home in London. He lives on a houseboat.
At the moment, the boat is staying on the River Thames, but
in the summer, Rory’s family have holidays on it - it’s their
holiday home, too!
A People think that houseboats are uncomfortable, but we’ve got everything - two
bedrooms, a living room and a kitchen. There’s even a ‘garden’ on the roof of the boat. I’m growing
some herbs up there now, because I love cooking.
B Our houseboat Marianne is seventy years old and usually it’s in the centre of London. It’s a cool place
to keep the boat - we’re near some famous museums and a good library, and the view is great.
C The only problem is the weather. When it’s windy, the boat goes up and down! Also we need to paint
Marianne every year. In fact my dad and his friend are painting the houseboat now.
D When visitors come here, they walk into our living room first. They think it’s great because it’s really
comfortable with a big TV, a sofa and modern paintings.
E The kitchen is my favourite room. My mum is making dinner there now. We’re going to eat in our
garden, on the roof!

a memory competitions.
b where animals put their food.
c human and animal memories.

Who's got the best memory: humans or animals? It's an interesting question.
Several years ago, a group of scientists tested the photographic memory of young chimpanzees. They
showed chimpanzees and humans a computer screen with numbers on it. When the numbers disappeared,
the chimpanzees could remember the position of the numbers. In fact they were better at this than the
humans.
Their experiments showed that a bird called Clark's Nutcracker had a fantastic memory, too.
The scientists watched the birds for months. The birds hid thousands of seeds over an
area of about twenty square kilometres. Six months later the birds found nearly all of the
seeds from memory. Humans were far less successful at this type of activity.
However, humans can do something that animals can't do. We can decide how we
want to memorize things. In the scientists' memory experiments, humans used different
techniques to memorize objects. Some imagined pictures of the objects, and some said
the words to themselves again and again. Humans wrote lists and trained their brains not
to forget important information. Animals can't do that!

An incredible trip
A A few years ago Star Wars actor Ewan McGregor and his daredevil friend,
Charley Boorman, began an incredible trip from the UK to South Africa by motorbike. They
started in Scotland in May and drove through eighteen countries to arrive in Cape Town in August.
They made a TV programme called Long Way Down, with their cameraman, Claudio.
B First Ewan and Charley drove down through the UK and into France. Then they went across France
and through the mountains into Italy From there, they sailed across the sea to Africa and their
adventures really began!
C In Libya, they were driving across the desert when a terrible sandstorm started. And in Kenya they
carried their motorbikes over a big river.
D But the most dangerous situation was in South Africa. Charley was performing stunts on his
motorbike to some spectators when he hit Claudio, the cameraman. Claudio was filming when the
accident happened, and he fell off his motorbike into the road. At first he didn’t move, but then he
stood up. The accident really hurt Claudio, but he was very brave, and continued working.
E When Ewan and Charley arrived in Cape Town, thousands of spectators and tourists were
cheering for them. It was an incredible trip, but they arrived safely.

Learning at home
In Britain some families feel that learning at home is better than going to school. Home-schooled
children can choose when they want to learn. Does this sound more enjoyable than school?
Adrian is a science prodigy and he wants to start university by the age of fourteen. He
finds school lessons easier than most children, but making friends more difficult. At home,
he can spend more time on his favourite subjects and is preparing to take many of his
exams early. Does he ever take a break? 'Yes,' he says, 'I don't study subjects I'm not
interested in.'
Holly's parents weren't happy with the local school, so they made a decision to teach her at
home. Her favourite subject is history and she often goes to museums to study. 'I couldn't
do that before,' she says. 'This is more interesting than school was.' Her parents are always
happy to help her.
Adrian and Holly love learning at home, but some people think that studying at school is more useful because it trains
you for adult life. It teaches you to be with people you don't like, but it can also help you to make friends. Are these
things more important than lessons? What do you think?

READING PLUS BThe Brainiest
®
For a lot of young people, being clever means doing well at
school and getting good marks, but some children want more.
They want to compete with other clever children in a quiz show.
The Brainiest was a quiz show for bright children. Children
in grades 6 to 11 at school competed against each other
in different categories for the title The Brainiest Kid'. The
show started in the UK and, like a lot of shows, the idea
spread abroad.
In Ukraine, hundreds of brainy children participated in the
show. Each year, there were six programmes in the first round
with twelve participants in each. Friends and families supported
them on their way to success and parents even took part in
some programmes. The participants chose questions from a
wide range of categories, including art, literature, cinema,

LONDON
If you only have a few days in London, there are some
sights you should see.
The London Eye
The first must-see sight is the London Eye. This is a 135m
high observation wheel on the banks of the River Thames.
It was built for the millennium celebrations in 2000. On a
clear day, you can see Windsor Castle, 40km away. You also
get a fantastic view of central London. It’s a good place to
start for any trip.
Big Ben
On the other side of the river from the London Eye,
there is one of the most famous sights in London - the
clock tower containing Big Ben, the bell that rings out
the time above the Houses of Parliament. The tower
and the parliament buildings, often called the Palace of
Westminster, are over 150 years old. You can visit both.
Buckingham Palace
Buckingham Palace is another famous sight. It’s the Queen’s
official London home with 775 rooms and 78 bathrooms.
You can go into the palace during the summer and see the
State Rooms, but whatever the time of year, it’s interesting
to see the guards outside and to take a walk up the Mall
- the long road to the palace. The palace is between two
parks - Green Park and St James’s. They are both good
places to escape the noise of the city and have a picnic. 4 What type of bird lives in the Tower of
