What i s English?

English is more multicultural than any other language.

For centuries it has taken words from other languages.

an d today's international communication means that

new words are appearing every day. In fact English

contains words from marc than :ISO other languages!

'Goulash' from Hungarian. 'algebra' from Arabic an d

'safari' from Swahili are just ,I few. Sometimes English

even takes whole phrases. We use 'Ia dolce vita' from

I talian. an d 'c'est la vie' from French; we even have

'feng shui' from Chinesc'

New types of Engl i sh

In many countries. likc India or Africa. therc arc

hundreds of local dialects (different ways of speaking

the same language). These countries l)ften use English

as ,1 common language. an d each country creates itsow n words. As a result new variations or English are

born. In West Arrica for cxample. trarfic jams are

called 'go-slows'. clothes arc called 'wears'. an d

hairdresser's are known as 'barbing saloons'!

In te rna t iona l communication

International communication has alsl) created

specialised English. such as Aviation English for ai r

trarlie controllcrs. Internet English. an d even text

mcssage English 1'01' mobile phones! New words. such

as .email.and.holl1epage.a rc added to the language

when they are needed.

Who does English belong to?

What all this mcans is that English doesn't just belong

to the English. but to all the people. proli:ssions an d

cultures who influencc an d change it. Today English is

a truly global language ... because it belongs ttl

everyone!

Pra ir i e l i fe

The 'Notional Cowboy Poetry Gathering' in Elko, Nevada

is one of the less well-known festivals in the USA.

Journalist Susan Spears went along to investigate.

'Every year, thousands of cowboys ride ou t to a weeklong poetry party in the US state of Nevada. The festival

has been held in Elko for 18 years, and this year wa s the

biggest, with over 8,000 visitors. People came to listen,

take part or just take a break from day-to-day life on

America's ranches (large forms).

Many of the cowboys tell stories and read poems, but

there's also live music and singing, and workshops on

everything from ranch dancing to cow camp cooking! So

what are the poems about? Some of

them describe the difficult life

working in the open country of

the prairies, the bad weather

and the long working days;

others are more positive and

describe tlle freedom of working

on the prairies.

The amazing thing about the

event is the number of different

cowboys who come from all

over the world. "You can see

where people are from by tlle

style of ha t they're wear ing,"

says Bill Cody; who works on a ranch in

Nebraska. "Last year we even hod

cowboys from Australia l "

However, not all the festival-goers are

cowboys. There are city people too. Jeff

Simons from Boston is one of them. "I

like the poetry; I like the singing, and I

like wearing the dothes," says the 35

year-old computer programmer. "And I

bought a hot especially for the occasion I" ,


1 How many people usually go to the 'Cowboy Poetry

Gathering'?

2 What workshops can you do there?

3 What do cowboys usually write about?

4 Where do the cowboys come from?

HOW to make a c

h()rr()r m ( ) \ ! ~ e First you have to find a really 1big sum of money

preferably about half a million dollars, bu t you can

make a movie for much less if you try. Then you

need someone who can write a good story. Thestory must keep the audience 2interested and

scared the whole way through. The characters must

be believable and the events that take place

should be 3frightening, so that the audience wants

to see more. If the story's 4bad, then you're not

going to have a successful movie, however good

the special effects are. OK, now you're ready to find

some actors. It would be 5surprising if any top stars

accepted your invitation to appear in your first

movie, so look for actors who have only had 6small

parts in movies before. They won't complain when

you're all outside in 7cold weather; filming a scene

for the twentieth time. Don't give up. You may be

8 tired, but you could be the new James Cameron

or Wes Craven!

The

Gdlapgg05Islands

The Galapagos Islands in the Pacific Ocean are one of the

natural wonders of the world. One thousand kilometresfrom the South American coast, the Galapagos are home to

many rare animals. such as giant tortoises, sea birds and

dolphins.

The islands first became famous in 1859 when Charles

Darwin wrote about them in his book, The Origin of

Species. When Darwin visited the islands, he found there a

key to ·that great mystery of mysteries the first

appearance of new life on this earth'.

Today the islands belong to Ecuador, and 97(% of the area

is a national park. However, despite this protection, the

park is in danger. The most serious threat comes from

illegal fishing, which is slowly destroying marine life.

Every day illegal nets trap and kill sharks. pelicans and

dolphins.

Another threat comes from animals brought over by

people who have come to live on the islands. Dogs and cats

eat the sea birds, and rats and pigs eat turtle eggs. Getting

these animals off the island is difficult and expensive.

Although tourism is seen as a positive

thing. it too has caused problems. The

population of Galapagos is growing

•fast. with people from the mainland

looking for jobs. Unfortunately the

islands' resources can't support

this growth.

Today the Galapagos is still a

wonderful place, but how

long will this lase 'It's

impossible to protect the park on

our own,' says park ranger Diego

Correa. 'We need help and resources

from outside, and it's up to everyone to

make a contribution - the Galapagosbelongs to the whole world.'


1 What type of animals live in the Galapagos?

2 How did the islands become well known?

3 Who owns the islands today?

4 What three problems do the islands have?

On e of th e most exciting weeks in the

student calendar is 'Rag Week'. Universities

all over the UK invite students to take part

in weird an d wonderful events organised

by their student union

an d all to help a good

cause. At Leeds University

for example, students

can hitchhike to Paris, take

part in a fashion show,

e x p e r i e n c ~ a hungee jump, or do a

fi re walk. AI! th e even ts are

sponsored, an d students usually raise

thousands of pounds for charitiessuch as 'Help th e Aged' an d 'The

Children's Heart Surgery Fund'.

So how did it all start'? 'The idea for

Rag Week was originally from

America and England,' says Student

Union President Ella Ford. 'Its main

aim has always been to raise money

for charity, but it's also a good way to meet people

an d have some fun!' And what are th e most

popular activities? 'run runs and hitchhiking,' says

Ella. 'This year we've been organising a sponsored

hitch to Morocco. The journey will he 1,600 miles

and once students get there. they'll spend a week

teaching English to loca I children.'

Hitchhiking is one of th e harder events, bu t there

are lots of other ways students can help. In fact

they can do as little or as much as they like, from

helping to run an event like a charity run, to

setting up a completely new challenge. 'You don't

need to have an y experience to help with Rag

Week,' says Ella. 'Just some free time, a bit of

imagination and a lot of enthusiasm!'

Air JordanMichael Jordan is on e of the most talented athletes in

history. He's won six NBA titles, he's had sports shoes

named after him, he's even starred in a Hollywood

mm'ie. Jordan is an international superstar. But successfor Michael Jordan was never a matter of luck. It was

always a matter of talent and hard work.

Michael Jordan was born in Brooklyn, Ne w York, in

1963. He was the fourth of five children, so he learned to

compete young. As a child, Michael was very athletic.

He played baseball, basketball and football, bu t his

favourite sport was baseball. However, this soon

changed when he started playing

basketball with his older and taller

brother Larry. Larry kept on beating

Michael when they played one-toone. Unsurprisingly, MichJel

didn't like losing, so he worked

hard to become J better plJyer.

Jordan's basketball graduJlly

improved, bu t in 1978 he suffered

a big disappointment. He was

dropped from his High School

basketball team' However Michael

didn't give lip. Instead he trained

harder and longer, and as ,1 resuItwas

soon playing again. 'The better I got,

the better 1 wanted to become,' he said

later. Nobody knew then that Jordiln

would become the greiltest player of Jll

time.

Today Michael Jordan has scored OVl'r

30,000 points in basketball games illl

over the world. Over 50'X, of Americ'1ll

children have voted him their idol.

However it's not just his basketball skills

that have made Jordan popular; it's his

courage, determination and positive

approach to life. 'I can accept failure,' he

once said, 'but 1 can't accept not trying.'


1 What is the secret of Michael Jordan's success?

2 Which sport did Jordan prefer when he was a child?

3 Why did Jordan start to play more basketball?

4 Why do people admire Michael Jordan?

added carbonated water. The result was a soft drink that was

called' both delicious and refreshing'. During its first year

Pemberton sold just nine bottles per day, bu t from these small

over 10 billion' Coca-Cola' products ore cansumed each year. In factin many cauntries soft drinks have became more popular than

traditional drinks. Tea used to be Britain's number one drink, but

today th e averoge British person drinks 18 8 litres of soft drinks a

year, but only 15 7 litres of tea.

Why is 'Coca-Cola' so popular? The main reason is its powerful

marketing. T he Coca-Cola Company sponsors global events like the

FIFA World Cup, Olympic Games and European Championships.

From Beijing to Boston, people know th e 'Coca-Cola' brand. They

see it on their televisions, in magazines and on supermarket

shelves. Positive slogans such as 'Things go Better with Coke', 'It's

th e Real Th ing' ond 'Coke is It' associate'Coca-Cola' wi th good

experiences and feeling happy. Yet although'Coca-Cola' is an

American company, only a third of its sales ar e in North America.

Most of its sales are from the rest of the world.

appeared on Tshlrts, postcards, in books, on travel

The building was built by a Danish architect called Jorn

Utzon. Utzon gave the building ItS unusual look by creating

a roof which looked like palm tree fronds Work first

started on the Opera House in 1957 The Australian

government gave Utzon $7 million and just four years to

finish it. Unfortunately, there were lots of delays as well as

money problems, so the Opera House wasn't actually

finished until 1973 By then the total cost of the bUilding

was over $100 million'

Today the Opera House is one of the busiest performing arts

centres in the world. It has around 3,000 events every year

which are watched by over two million people There are five

main concert halls used for a wide variety of performances

including classical, opera, pop and Jazz Artists as different
