Urban drift and shantytowns


About half the world's population currently lives in cities. This [1] ________. More and more,
people from rural areas are moving to urban areas, in a phenomenon known as urban drift, in
order to find work. Urban drift, however, only seems to increase the gap between rich and
poor, not reduce it. This is especially apparent in the poor settlements known as shantytowns
around some of the world's largest cities. At present, over one billion people in the world live
in shantytowns in homes made from plastic, metal, cardboard, or wood. Shantytowns usually
lack proper sanitation, clean water, or electricity, yet they are often on the periphery of
modern cities where these facilities are readily available. Shantytowns are most often found in
developing nations, where there is already an unequal distribution of wealth. They can often
reach the size of entire cities.
For example, [2] ________. This Pakistani shantytown is 57 square kilometers in size.
Khayelitsha in Cape Town, South Africa, is considered to be the biggest on the African
continent. In Latin America, large shantytowns are common and the biggest is Neza in Mexico.
In Europe, they are less common, but they do exist. On the outskirts of Madrid, Cañ ada Real is
an example of a neighborhood where living conditions are similar to those in the shantytowns
of the developing world. Because construction in shantytowns is informal and unplanned,
street signs and basic infrastructure don't exist. If there is any infrastructure, it is likely to be
disorganized, old, and of poor quality. Community [3] ________. As a result, fires are a particular
danger in shantytowns.
In 1953, for example, 53,000 people living in a slum on the hills of Shek Kip Mei in Hong Kong
were made homeless in just a few hours after a huge fire. It is also no surprise that [4] ________.
Despite the high level of criminal activity, shantytowns are also places of hope and creativity.
In many of these marginalized communities, a counterculture of arts and sports is emerging
hand in hand with a desire from the younger generations to succeed. Shantytowns, however,
are still places where every day is a struggle to survive. Even for the young and enthusiastic,

Black Friday myths


Have you ever heard of Black Friday? It's the day after Thanksgiving in the U.S. when many stores have
fantastic sales. [1] Why is it so popular? First of all, there's the excitement. A few stores open as early
as 4:00 a.m., most are open by 6:00 a.m., and some customers even camp out in the parking lot all
night. One retailer lets you sign up to receive an early morning phone call reminding you to get up and
get shopping! [2] People push and shove their way inside as soon as the doors are open.
But it's not always mean-spirited. Lena Meyers, a 35-year-old mother of two, says she loves Black
Friday because people are often in good spirits. ''Don't believe all the news stories that talk about
violence on Black Friday,'' she says. ''[3] I've been standing in lines when people start singing
Christmas songs and swapping stories about their best holiday memories. It's fun to be part of the
crowd.''
[4] The stores run one-day-only sales on everything from electronics to bath gel. Many popular items,
like laptops, disappear in a matter of hours. The ''If you snooze, you lose'' mentality takes over, and
people feel that they will never see such good deals again. Black Friday isn't for everyone, though. Ian
Mead, a self-proclaimed shopaholic, says he never goes shopping after Thanksgiving. ''I stay home with
my family. We play Frisbee and watch football. [5] I may not get the best bargains, but I'm not a part of
all that madness.''

1. a. If I do any shopping at all, it's online shopping.

2. b. Sure, a few people push, but it's a lot of fun.

3. c. People get out of bed early and shop all day.

4. d. The anticipation builds as the doors are unlocked.

Spaced learning—the next education revolution?


In the UK, all 16-year-olds must take a number of exams called GCSEs. For over 20 years,
schools have had to publish their students' exam results. The results are included in national
league tables that show the position of every school in the country. Since the publication of
these school league tables, schools have tried to find ways to improve exam results so that
their school can get a higher position in the league table.
The principal of Monkseaton School in the north of England, Paul Kelley, promotes a
technique called ''spaced learning.'' He is sure that this technique can guarantee better test
results. The technique is based on the findings of American neuroscientist Douglas Fields from
the National Institute for Child Health and Development. Fields has shown that the best way
to help students develop a good memory is to divide information into parts and to include a
10-minute break after each part of information has been presented. During these breaks, the
part of the brain that learned the information can rest and a different part of the brain
becomes active. In Kelley's method, the teacher presents the same information to students
three times. After each presentation, the student receives a 10-minute break. During the
break, the students must do a physical activity or something completely different from what
they just learned. In 2008, 48 14-year-old students at the school were given a 90-minute
15
English ID 2nd edition Level 3  Richmond, 2019
ENGLISH ID 2nd edition ◉ LEVEL 3

spaced learning biology class. They had never studied biology before, but 80% of students
achieved a D (a low pass) or higher in the exam. The class included three 20-minute
presentations and a 10-minute break after each. The technique seems to work well with
students who usually find it hard to learn in a normal class.
Monkseaton was the first school in the UK to use this system, but now teachers in other
schools are starting to teach using spaced learning techniques. Supporters of this technique
claim it will revolutionize the way students learn and will improve exam results. Critics argue
that the technique does not encourage creative or critical thinking. Ken Robinson, a famous
British expert on education, supports techniques that develop critical thinking and real
understanding. He has argued that exam results should not be seen as more important than
real understanding. He thinks that both teachers and students should try to develop creativity
in the classroom.

1. Ken Robinson claims that exam results are less important than true
understanding.

2. Spaced learning has been adopted by many schools in the UK.

3. In Kelley's classes, students do a physical activity during the breaks.

The Shape of Water


This strange, but wonderful romantic thriller, directed by Guillermo del Toro, is so unlike
other traditional love stories that it has been labeled a ‘monster’ movie! Set in the 1960s in a
small American city, Sally Hawkins plays Elisa, a lonely woman trapped in her own world
because she cannot speak. She and her co-worker, Zelda, clean the endless halls and
laboratories of an underground government center and accidentally come across a dark,
22
English ID 2nd edition Level 3  Richmond, 2019
ENGLISH ID 2nd edition ◉ LEVEL 3

secret experiment. A half-man, half-fish has been captured in Brazil and brought to this
concrete prison by the U.S. military, and is under the “care” of Colonel Strickland—an
unpleasant, racist soldier who believes this Amphibian Man has no real intelligence. With the
Cold War at its worst, he considers that the creature’s body may contain secrets the U.S. can
use against the Soviets. Meanwhile, a scientist at the Occam Institute, Dr. Robert Hoffstetler, is
arguing to keep the creature alive, but not for positive reasons, as we later discover he is a
double agent working for the Soviets and wants to get information from the creature to use
against the U.S.

In the meantime, the silent Elisa manages to communicate with the creature, playing it music
and bringing it boiled eggs to eat. A relationship starts between the two and, when Elisa
discovers that Strickland wants to kill the creature, she convinces Zelda and her roommate, an
artist named Giles, to help her rescue the Amphibian Man.

The movie jumps between comedy and horror and has an improbable storyline, but with
Hawkins’ fantastic performance as the quiet but determined Elisa, the whole movie works. In
fact, The Shape of Water is possibly Del Toro’s best movie yet.

1. Elisa and the creature learn to ___________________ with one another and become
friends.

2. Elisa and Zelda ___________________ find the half-fish, half-man while cleaning the
center.

used to fight the Soviets.

4. Dr. Hoffstetler wants the creature ___________________ so he can find out more
about it.

was to take an old milk jug and fill it full of pebbles. Then I put it in the back of my toilet tank. ''Are
you out of your mind, Carrie?'' I hear you asking. No, I did it so the water in the back of the tank will

be displaced, and I will use less water every time I flush. I've already been seeing a decrease in my
water bill! Another thing I did was to put a different laundry basket in my kids' room with a sign on
it that says ''Maybe.'' I told them to put in clothes that they had worn just once or twice, but they're
not sure if the clothes are dirty. Then I can look through them and decide before I wash them. If
they're not really dirty—like, maybe there's just a spot of toothpaste on a shirt—I spot-clean it, fold
it up, and put it back. They love their new ''green'' laundry basket, and I've been saving a lot of
electricity! The final thing is a huge accomplishment. I finally got my husband to rinse his razor in
the sink instead of under running water! Yes, for at least 25 years, this man has been leaving the
water running while he shaves, which drives me nuts! Finally, I figured out how much water he was
wasting every day. Then I multiplied it by 30. You don't want to know how much water he was
wasting! He really felt bad when he actually saw the numbers. Now, he has been filling the sink with
a few inches of water and just swishing his razor in it. I hope these tips can help you, too.
Remember, every drop counts!
