answer to each of the questions from 29 to 33.
Dinosaurs were reptiles that lived during a period of earth’s history called the Mesozoic Era, which is
known as the Age of Reptiles. The first dinosaurs appeared more than 200 million years ago. For many millions of
years, they dominated the land with their huge size and strength. Then about 65 million years ago, they died out
rather suddenly, never to reemerge.
The word dinosaur comes from two Greek words meaning “terrible lizard”. Dinosaurs were not lizards,
but their appearance could be truly terrifying. The biggest ones weighed more than ten times as much as a mature
elephant and nearly equaled the size of most modern-day whales. The famous kinds of dinosaurs, including the
brontosaurus and tyrannosaurus, reached 80 to 90 feet in length. Not all dinosaurs were giants, however, some were
actually no larger than a chicken.
Scientists still do not know what caused dinosaur to disappear. One theory involves a change in the
earth’s climate. It is believed that temperature dropped significantly towards the end of the Cretaceous Period. Too
large to hibernate and not having fur or feathers for protection, it is possible that the climate became too chilly for
dinosaurs. In contrast, other species having protection, such as the mammals and birds, were able to survive.

English teenagers are to receive compulsory cooking lessons in schools. The idea is to encourage healthy
eating to fight the country’s increasing obesity rate. It’s feared that basic cooking and food preparation skills are
being lost as parents turn to pre-prepared convenience foods.
Cooking was once regarded as an important part of education in England - even if it was mainly aimed at
girls. In recent decades cooking has progressively become a minor activity in schools. In many cases the schools
themselves have given up cooking meals in kitchens in the schools. But the rising level of obesity has led to a
rethink about the food that children are given and the skills they should be taught.
“What I want is to teach young people how to do basic, simple recipes like a tomato sauce, a bolognaise, a
simple curry, a stir-fry - which they can use now at home and then in their later life”, said Ed Balls, the minister
responsible for schools.
The new lessons are due to start in September, but some schools without kitchens will be given longer to
adapt. There is also likely to be a shortage of teachers with the right skills, since the trend has been to teach food
technology rather than practical cooking. Also, the compulsory lessons for hands on cooking will only be one hour
a week for one term. But the well-known cookery writer, Pru Leith, believes it will be worth it.

“If we’d done this thirty years ago, we might not have the crisis we have got now about obesity and lack of
knowledge about food and so on. Every child should know how to cook, not just so that they’ll be healthy, but
because it’s a life skill which is a real pleasure”.
The renewed interest in cooking is primarily a response to the level of obesity in Britain which is among
the highest in Europe, and according to government figures half of all Britons will be obese in 25 years if current
trends are not stopped.
