READING AND WRITING UNIT 3.-
IS MARRIAGE CHANGING?
Forty years ago, most people got married in their early twenties. But today, people
often wait until they are older to get married. What caused this change? Read the
information about dating and marriage and find out.
In the past, men usually had better jobs than women. Many women got married
early, had children and stayed at home. Today, many young women study at
university and get better jobs than women could get in the past. Because of this,
many women want to work. They don’t want to stay at home. They have also got
more money to spend on travel, hobbies and interests outside the home.
Dating is different now, too. Forty years ago, young people went out more in the
evenings. There was always a party or a place to go dancing, so it was easier to
meet people. People often fell in love and got married at a very young age. But
today, Internet dating websites are popular ways to meet people. These sites can
often match people’s interests and personalities and people can choose their future
husbands and wives more carefully.
Are these changes good? Well, according to some studies in the USA and in
England, there aren’t as many divorces in recent years. So, some people think these
changes are good. What do you think?
2 Complete the sentences about life in the past according to the text. Use the affirmative or
negative form of There was or There were.

TREKKING IN AUSTRALIA
In 1999, Andrew Harper walked 4,637 kilometres across Australia. The walk took
229 days and some of the journey was through hot, dry desert. He had three camels
and a dog with him. While Harper was trekking through the desert, the animals
walked behind him and they carried the heavy equipment.
It isn’t possible to cross the desert in ordinary transport such as a car, jeep or van.
Two hundred years ago, people tried taking horses across the Australian desert.
The horses needed to drink and many of them died while they were trying to find
water. Camels survive well in the desert because they don’t need water every day.
They drink before their journey and they carry the water inside their bodies. They
also get some water from the plants in the desert. The trek wasn’t easy, but he
loved it.
Harper wants other people to experience the Australian desert. Today, he takes
tourists there with his camels. The participants sleep outside, cook their meals and
help with the camels. It’s not the perfect holiday for everybody, but it is an amazing
experience.
3 Complete the sentences with the verbs in brackets. Use the Past Simple or Past
Continuous. Then tick ( ) the sentences T (true) or (false).

shop. There are some great souvenirs to choose from and they aren’t too expensive.
After a busy day in the park, you can watch a sound and light show about the history

LIGHTNING STRIKES
Have you ever heard of someone surviving a lightning strike? Believe it or not, this
happens very often. Lightning strikes about 2,000 people around the world every
year and most of these people survive.
Austin Melton from Oregon, USA survived a lightning strike when he was 14 years
old. He was playing basketball in his school when the storm started. All the lights in
the school went out, so the students ran outside to watch the storm. They saw
lightning above the football field and saw it hit the school building. Many students
were frightened, but not Austin. He wanted everyone to know he was brave, so he
walked across the football field. Suddenly, lightning hit his head and his body.
Austin’s friends ran to help him, but they were very frightened and didn’t want to
touch him. A teacher called an ambulance and Austin went to hospital. All the
students were worried. The lightning destroyed Austin’s shirt and shoes, but he was
still alive. It was amazing!
Austin has discovered a lot of important information about lightning since his
experience and when Austin sees lightning now, he doesn’t run into a field! In fact,
he hasn’t been outside in a storm since his accident.

School on Wheels
It’s a hot afternoon in the city of Hyderabad, India. A school bus is stopping in a poor area of the city. Some
children are running towards the bus. They want to look inside. They’re happy and excited.
The bus is a classroom, and for many of India’s poor children, it is their only hope for an education. Many
children in India’s poor areas haven’t got schools to go to. Some of them work to help their families. Others
stand on the streets and ask people for money. This special bus brings school to them.
It’s clean inside the bus. There are pictures on the walls and cupboards with textbooks and notebooks. There are
pencils, pens, glue and a TV. There is a teacher, too. The children learn to read and do maths.
They also get a hot meal. A doctor sometimes comes to the bus to check the children’s health.
Right now about 40 children are sitting on the bus. They are listening to the teacher and writing in their
notebooks. Ten-year-old Devi is learning on the bus today. After she finishes work with her father, she comes
to the bus to study. Devi wants to be a teacher one day. Manjula is studying on the bus today, too. She hopes to
become a doctor.
The school on a bus is the idea of a man called T. L. Reddy. He wants the children to enjoy school. “This is the
only chance they get to be kids, even if it is only for two hours,” he says.

Hi Uncle Dave,
I’m writing to you from New York. Jim and I arrived here two days ago. New York is an
amazing city! There are so many museums, cafés, department stores and markets. There
are people everywhere. We are staying in a small hotel near Central Park. I know many
cities have got parks in them, but Central Park is enormous. It has got lakes, a zoo and
beautiful gardens, and in the winter there are two ice rinks. I’m sending you a picture of
Jim and me in Central Park. In the picture, we’re riding horses.
We want to go to the top of the Empire State Building. There are great views of the city
from the observation deck on the 86th floor. Once a year, there’s a famous race up the
Empire State Building. Over 100 participants run up a total of 1,576 steps. Do you want
to try it?
Jim and I also want to go to Madame Tussauds Wax Museum because we can “hang
out” with our favourite stars: Beyoncé, Leonardo DiCaprio and Johnny Depp. Jim wants
me to take photos of him with Miley Cyrus. They’ve got an American Idol studio there,
too, and I want to sing for Simon Cowell. He was my favourite judge on the popular US
TV programme.
I’m having a great time. See you soon.

IS MARRIAGE CHANGING?
Forty years ago, most people got married in their early twenties. But today, people often
wait until they are older to get married. What caused this change? Read the information
about dating and marriage and find out.
In the past, men usually had better jobs than women. Many women got married early,
had children and stayed at home. Today, many young women study at university and
become professionals. They can find better jobs than women could get in the past.
Because of this, many women want to work. They don’t want to stay at home. They have
also got more money to spend on travel, hobbies and interests outside the home.
Dating is different now, too. Forty years ago, young people didn’t have computers or
mobile phones to talk to their friends. They went out more in the evenings. There was
always a party or a place to go dancing, so it was easier to meet people. People often fell
in love and got married at a very young age. But today, Internet dating websites have
become popular ways to meet people. These sites can often match people’s interests and
personalities to help them find husbands or wives. Some men and women chat for
months before they actually meet. On the Internet, people don’t usually fall in love right
away and they can choose their future husbands and wives more carefully.
Are these changes good? Well, according to some studies in the USA and in England,
there aren’t as many divorces in recent years. So, some people think these changes are
good. What do you think?
2. Complete the sentences about life in the past according to the text. Use the
affirmative or negative form of There was or There were.
1. …………………… more young women at home.
2. …………………… a place to go dancing.
3. …………………… many women with professions.

5. …………………… any Internet.

TREKKING IN AUSTRALIA
In 1999, Andrew Harper walked 4,637 kilometres across Australia. The walk took 229
days and some of the journey was through hot, dry desert. Harper didn’t see many people
in the desert, but he wasn’t alone. He had three camels and a dog with him. But he didn’t
ride on the camels. While Harper was trekking through the desert, the animals were
walking behind him.
Why did Harper choose to take camels with him? Because camels are strong, hard-
working animals and they can carry heavy equipment across the desert. It isn’t possible
to cross the desert in ordinary transport such as a car, jeep or van. Two hundred years
ago, people tried taking horses across the Australian desert. The horses needed to drink
and many of them died while they were trying to find water. Camels survive well in the
desert because they don’t need water every day. They drink before their journey and they
carry the water inside their bodies. They also get some water from the plants in the
desert. During Harper’s journey, his camels carried his food, water, clothes, sleeping
bag, tent and other important equipment. The trek wasn’t easy, but he loved it. Harper
wrote a diary about it and put it on the Internet.
Harper loves the Australian desert and he wants other people to experience its special
atmosphere. Today, he takes tourists into the desert with his camels. The participants
sleep outside and cook their meals on a campfire. They must also help with the camels
and learn how to care for them. It’s not the perfect holiday for everybody, but it is an
amazing experience.

Visit the gold mine at Sovereign Hill in Australia and travel back in time to the Gold
Rush days of the 1850s. At this unusual outdoor museum, you can look for gold and
experience one of the most exciting and lively times in history.
Sovereign Hill is the largest outdoor museum in Australia. There is a small town with
more than 60 old buildings from the 1850s. There are also artifacts from the Gold Rush.
The workers at the park wear clothes from the 1800s. You can watch them doing work
and activities from that period. Some of the workers use very old equipment to melt
gold. Then they make elaborate golden items.
There are many interesting activities for visitors to do at Sovereign Hill, too. You can go
on a horse ride or watch artists making ceramics. You can go under the ground to tour
the gold mines. Most exciting of all, you can look for gold in the sandy floor of the river.

expensive.

LIGHTNING STRIKES
Have you ever heard of someone surviving a lightning strike? Believe it or not, this
happens very often. Lightning strikes about 2,000 people around the world every year
and most of these people survive.
Austin Melton from Oregon, USA survived a lightning strike when he was 14 years old.
He was playing basketball in his school when the storm started. All the lights in the
school went out, so the students ran outside to watch the storm. They saw lightning
above the football field and saw it hit the school building. Many students were
frightened, but not Austin. He wanted everyone to know that he was brave, so he walked
across the football field. Suddenly, lightning hit his head and his body. Austin’s friends
ran to help him, but they were too frightened to touch him. A teacher called an
ambulance and Austin went to hospital. All the students were worried. The lightning
destroyed Austin’s shirt and shoes, but he was still alive. It was amazing!
Austin has discovered a lot of important information about lightning since his
experience. For example, lightning is more dangerous than most people think – and it
usually hits the highest object around. If you walk into a field, you will become the
highest object in the area and the lightning will probably hit you. Also, it is dangerous to
stand near high trees or buildings. The best place to be during a storm is in a car, bus or
building, but lightning can enter open windows and doors, so it’s important to close
them.
There are often thunderstorms in Oregon, but now when Austin sees lightning, he
doesn’t run into a field! In fact, he hasn’t been outside in a storm since his accident.
3. Write questions with the words below. Use the Present Perfect Simple.

Hi Uncle Dave,
I’m writing to you from New York. Jim and I arrived here two days ago. New York is an
amazing city! There are so many museums, cafés, department stores and markets. There
are people everywhere. We are staying in a small hotel near Central Park. I know many
cities have got parks in them, but Central Park is enormous. It has got lakes, a zoo and
beautiful gardens, and in the winter there are two ice rinks. I’m sending you a picture of
Jim and me in Central Park. In the picture, we’re riding horses.
We want to go to the top of the Empire State Building. There are great views of the city
from the observation deck on the 86th floor. Once a year, there’s a famous race up the
Empire State Building. Over 100 participants run up a total of 1,576 steps. Do you want
to try it?
Jim and I also want to go to Madame Tussauds Wax Museum because we can “hang
out” with our favourite stars: Beyoncé, Leonardo DiCaprio and Johnny Depp. Jim wants
me to take photos of him with Miley Cyrus. They’ve got an American Idol studio there,
too, and I want to sing for Simon Cowell. He was my favourite judge on the popular US
TV programme.
I’m having a great time. See you soon.

IS MARRIAGE CHANGING?
Forty years ago, most people got married in their early twenties. But today, people often
wait until they are older to get married. What caused this change? Read the information
about dating and marriage and find out.
In the past, men usually had better jobs than women. Many women got married early,
had children and stayed at home. Today, many young women study at university and
become professionals. They can find better jobs than women could get in the past.
Because of this, many women want to work. They don’t want to stay at home. They have
also got more money to spend on travel, hobbies and interests outside the home.
Dating is different now, too. Forty years ago, young people didn’t have computers or
mobile phones to talk to their friends. They went out more in the evenings. There was
always a party or a place to go dancing, so it was easier to meet people. People often fell
in love and got married at a very young age. But today, Internet dating websites have
become popular ways to meet people. These sites can often match people’s interests and
personalities to help them find husbands or wives. Some men and women chat for
months before they actually meet. On the Internet, people don’t usually fall in love right
away and they can choose their future husbands and wives more carefully.
Are these changes good? Well, according to some studies in the USA and in England,
there aren’t as many divorces in recent years. So, some people think these changes are
good. What do you think?
2. Complete the sentences about life in the past according to the text. Use the

TREKKING IN AUSTRALIA
In 1999, Andrew Harper walked 4,637 kilometres across Australia. The walk took 229
days and some of the journey was through hot, dry desert. Harper didn’t see many people
in the desert, but he wasn’t alone. He had three camels and a dog with him. But he didn’t
ride on the camels. While Harper was trekking through the desert, the animals were
walking behind him.
Why did Harper choose to take camels with him? Because camels are strong, hard-
working animals and they can carry heavy equipment across the desert. It isn’t possible
to cross the desert in ordinary transport such as a car, jeep or van. Two hundred years
ago, people tried taking horses across the Australian desert. The horses needed to drink
and many of them died while they were trying to find water. Camels survive well in the
desert because they don’t need water every day. They drink before their journey and they
carry the water inside their bodies. They also get some water from the plants in the
desert. During Harper’s journey, his camels carried his food, water, clothes, sleeping
bag, tent and other important equipment. The trek wasn’t easy, but he loved it. Harper
wrote a diary about it and put it on the Internet.
Harper loves the Australian desert and he wants other people to experience its special
atmosphere. Today, he takes tourists into the desert with his camels. The participants
sleep outside and cook their meals on a campfire. They must also help with the camels
and learn how to care for them. It’s not the perfect holiday for everybody, but it is an
amazing experience.

UNIT 6
Visit the gold mine at Sovereign Hill in Australia and travel back in time to the Gold
Rush days of the 1850s. At this unusual outdoor museum, you can look for gold and
experience one of the most exciting and lively times in history.
Sovereign Hill is the largest outdoor museum in Australia. There is a small town with
more than 60 old buildings from the 1850s. There are also artifacts from the Gold Rush.
The workers at the park wear clothes from the 1800s. You can watch them doing work
and activities from that period. Some of the workers use very old equipment to melt
gold. Then they make elaborate golden items.
There are many interesting activities for visitors to do at Sovereign Hill, too. You can go
on a horse ride or watch artists making ceramics. You can go under the ground to tour
the gold mines. Most exciting of all, you can look for gold in the sandy floor of the river.
Workers at the park sometimes throw gold in the water. So if you look hard enough, you
will probably find some. If you don’t find any gold in the river, you will find some in the
souvenir shop. There are some great souvenirs to choose from and they aren’t too
expensive.
After a busy day in the park, you can watch a sound and light show about the history of
the mine workers. Then you can enjoy a meal in the restaurant or one of the cafés. You’ll
love the food. Some of the recipes are from the 1800s. Enjoy your visit!
2. Choose the correct adjective to complete the sentences. Use the comparative
or superlative form.

LIGHTNING STRIKES
Have you ever heard of someone surviving a lightning strike? Believe it or not, this
happens very often. Lightning strikes about 2,000 people around the world every year
and most of these people survive.
Austin Melton from Oregon, USA survived a lightning strike when he was 14 years old.
He was playing basketball in his school when the storm started. All the lights in the
school went out, so the students ran outside to watch the storm. They saw lightning
above the football field and saw it hit the school building. Many students were
frightened, but not Austin. He wanted everyone to know that he was brave, so he walked
across the football field. Suddenly, lightning hit his head and his body. Austin’s friends
ran to help him, but they were too frightened to touch him. A teacher called an
ambulance and Austin went to hospital. All the students were worried. The lightning
destroyed Austin’s shirt and shoes, but he was still alive. It was amazing!
Austin has discovered a lot of important information about lightning since his
experience. For example, lightning is more dangerous than most people think – and it
usually hits the highest object around. If you walk into a field, you will become the
highest object in the area and the lightning will probably hit you. Also, it is dangerous to
stand near high trees or buildings. The best place to be during a storm is in a car, bus or
building, but lightning can enter open windows and doors, so it’s important to close
them.
There are often thunderstorms in Oregon, but now when Austin sees lightning, he
doesn’t run into a field! In fact, he hasn’t been outside in a storm since his accident.
3. Write questions with the words below. Use the Present Perfect Simple.
1. what / Austin / learn / about lightning
.......................................................................................................................................
2. how / Austin’s behaviour / change / since his accident
