They live on the snow and ice of the Poles and in the tropical jungles on the equator. They have climbed the highest mountains and walked on the sea bed. Some of them have even left the earth and visited the moon, The human species is the most numerous and the most powerful of all the animals on earth. How did this happen? in many ways, animals can do things better than we can. Dogs can smell and hear better than we can. Cats can see in the dark. Birds can fly thousands of miles away and retum to the same place every year. But we are different. No other animal builds cathedrals, plays football, tells jokes, gets married, has prisons, writes symphonies, elects presidents, or goes to the moon. There is one thing above all that makes people and animals different. People love to talk - talk - talk. We are the great communicators! And we can communicate so many things in so many ways - with our faces, ‘our hands, our bodies, and our voices. Most important of all, we can record what we say and think in writing, so that we can communicate through time. We have a sense of past and future, not just present. We are the only species that can change the world, and we are the only species that can choose either to look after our world or to destroy it G.

Many Japanese families now live there. Kimiko Kinoshita Wood came to Britain as a bride six years ago, ‘There is much more freedom for women here," she says. 'tis sometimes difficult for Japanese women to adjust" For Kimiko, the change was easy because she is a translator and speaks English fluently. Also, she has an English husband, ‘Attitudes to women are very different,’ she says. ‘Japanese wives come to Britain and after a while they discover they can have a life of their own outside the home, They don't have that PRR ese re In Japan it is unusual to see men shopping with their wives, helping in the house, or babysitting. But Kimiko's husband, John. a shipping engineer, happily lends a hand with the children. John says that Japanese husbands soon adapt in Britain, and seem to relax more with their families. Education is one thing that worries Kimiko. In Japan, children go to school six days a week and work much harder than English children. Another complaint is that shops don't have many clothes for small women! Xavier - France When Xavier Dupont came to Britain, his friends in Paris said he'd hate it. However, Xavier, a 26-year-old chef, says they were wrong, ‘French people imagine that Britain is a cold, miserable country where everyone dresses. badly, you can't see anything for fog, and the food is the worst on the planet. | don't agree.’ Xavier insists that the British look good because they don't follow fashion so seriously. He enjoys shopping in Britain because there are ‘so many fresh things in the supermarkets. He particulary likes the street markets. However he has some complaints. He thinks that British men don't show enough ‘consideration or appreciation of the women. Also, he doesn't like British bathrooms where you stand or sit in the bath to | have a shower! Last of all, he feels that shops and restaurants close far too often and far too early. Margaretha — Norway In Britain, Margaretha Simons can be a full-time housewife, at home with her four children. This, she says, is unusual in her native Norway because almost ali Norwegian women go out to work, partly because there are more creches. It is also unusual in Norway to have more than two children. Margaretha, who is 43, met her British husband, Noel, a university professor, while she was leaming English in Cambridge. ‘Iind British people friendly,’ she says. 'New neighbours invite you for coffee, introduce their children, and take you to the shops. The men are more courteous and romantic than Norwegian men.’ However she doesn't ke everything. She thinks British houses are not built well - even modern houses have alot of draughts. Also, there is too much liter on the streets and by the sides of the motorways. She likes fresh British food, but at first she did not like the tea because it looked cloudy and grey. Now she is addicted to it, and has cups of tea all the time! | 10 Thanks a Million Do you need money? Write a letter to Mr. Percy Ross. Maybe he will give you some money.

Picture Test MARKS & SPENCER Brit ’s favourite store Marks & Spencer (or M&S) is Britain's favourite store. Tourists love it too. It attracts @ great variety of customers, from housewives to millionaires. Princess Diana, Dustin Hoffman, and the British Prime Minister are just a few of its famous customers. Last year it made a profit of £529 million, which is more than £10 million a week. How did it all begin? It all started 105 years ago, when a young Polish immigrant, Michael Marks, had a stall in Leeds market. He didn't have many things to sell: some cotton, a little wool, lots of buttons, and a few shoelaces. Above his stall he put the now famous notice: DON'T ASK HOW MUCH ~ IT’S A PENNY Ten years later, he met Tom Spencer and together they started Penny Stalls in many towns in the north of England, Today there are 584 branches of M&S all over the world - in America, Canada, Spain, France, Belgium, and Hungary What are the best-sellers? Surprisingly, tastes in food and clothes are international. What sells well in Paris sells just as well in Newcastle. Their best-selling clothes are: + For women: jumpers, bras, and knickers (M&S is famous for its knickers!) + For men: shirts, socks, pyjamas, dressing gowns, and suits. + For children: underwear and socks. Best-sellers in food include: fresh chickens, bread, vegetables, and sandwiches. Chicken Kiev is internationally the most popular convenience food Jeiee, $e oNe Why is M&S so successful? The store bases its business on three principles: good value, good quality, and good service. Also, it changes with the times - once it was all jumpers and knickers. Now it's food, furniture, and flowers as well. Top fashion designers advise on styles of clothes. But perhaps the most important key to its success is its happy, well-trained staff. Conditions of work are excellent. There are company doctors, dentists, hairdressers, and even chiropodists to look after the staff, and all the staff can have lunch for under 40p! pen 1B, Complete the following sentences with “Much” or “Many”. ©, ‘There are __many_ flowers in the vase 1.
