What is a baby koala called?
Quiz
Koalas are unusual animals. They only live in Australia, in trees. They eat eucalyptus leaves. Their babies stay in a pouch on their mother’s tummy for the first six months of their lives. They look like soft and cuddly animals, but they can be quite dangerous if you scare them.

IntroductionIntroduction
Hello again! I’m Jake and I’m 14 years old. I’ve had two fantastic holidays on Cortuga Island with Mandy, Kate and Robbie, but
now we’re back home in London.
Hello! I’m Mandy and I’m 10. I’m Jake’s sister. We live in London and we go
to different schools.
Hi, I’m Kate. I’m 13 years old. Robbie and I met Jake and Mandy on Cortuga two
years ago. Then we found out that we all live really close to each other in London!
Hello, I’m Robbie. I’m Kate’s cousin and I’m 11. I’ve just changed schools and
now I go to the same school as Kate.
The Characters
Hi, I’m Jake and Mandy’s uncle, and my name’s Oliver. I live on Cortuga Island and
the children stayed with me when they visited the island. I do lots of travelling
around the world because I’m a scientist.

Meteora is a fascinating place near the town of Trikala, in the Greek region of Thessaly. It became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1988. It is on the UNESCO list because of the impressive rock formations, which are up to 400 metres high, and the monasteries which are important to Greek culture and tradition.

My travels!
Friday 10th July
We’re leaving tomorrow! We’re travelling in Uncle
Oliver’s camper van. It’s great because you can eat
and sleep in it too. This is really exciting!
Saturday 11th July
Our fi rst stop is at Hampton Court Palace in
the south of England. Outside there’s a maze,
which is cool! It’s like a big puzzle made of 1,000
trees. Visitors walk around it and usually get lost! It closes at
6.00 pm, so we’ve got all day!
Monday 13th July
Today we’re visiting Uncle Oliver’s
favourite monument, Stonehenge. It is
a prehistoric circle of massive stones.
Nobody knows what the stones were
for – it’s a mystery! We’re staying
near here for the night! Archaeologists
think it’s about 5,000 years old.
What a fascinating place!
Wednesday 15th July
Now we’re driving up to the north of England.
We’re going to see the Angel of the North. It’s
a modern sculpture which was fi nished in 1998.
Some people say it’s ugly but others admire it.
It’s 20 metres high and its wings are as wide
as a plane’s! It’s on a hill and I think I can see it
now. It’s very impressive!
Thursday 16th JulyWe’re just south of Scotland now, at the famous
Hadrian’s Wall. This stone wall is about 118 km
long. It was built by the Romans in AD 122 to
mark the northern border of the Roman Empire
and to keep out the Picts – an ancient Scottish
tribe. We’re crossing the border into Scotland
tomorrow morning. Our next destination is
Glasgow. Goodbye England!

The Grand Canyon is one of the world’s seven natural wonders. These include Mount Everest in Asia, the Great Barrier Reef in Australia and Victoria Falls in Africa. The Grand Canyon is a massive gorge. It is situated in the US state of Arizona and the Colorado River runs through it. The river has created the gorge slowly over the past six million years. The canyon is 446 kilometres long and nearly 2 kilometres deep at some points.
The view from the top of the canyon is amazing! From a glass pathway you can look down and see the bottom of the canyon about 1,200 metres below! Some visitors love to hike through the canyon while others prefer to go rafting on the Colorado River. Anyone who thinks it’s an easy ride, though, is wrong. The river is fast and powerful!
About five million people visit the Grand Canyon safely every year. However, it’s a dangerous place and accidents often happen. The canyon is bare and rocky so there’s little shade from the hot sun. There are also many different paths and some of them are very steep and narrow. Are you thinking about a trip to the Grand Canyon? Well, you will definitely need a strong pair of walking boots, lots of water and a good map or guidebook!
The Grand Canyon
Native American people have lived in the
Grand Canyon for at least 10,000 years.

Three teenagers talk about amazing places in their countries that most people from other countries have never heard of. Read the descriptions of these unusual places. Which country is well known for its fiords?
Reading
Ahmad, 17, IndiaNot many people who
visit India know about
the Darjeeling Himalayan
Railway. There’s a special
train which uses the
railway called the ‘toy
train’ because it’s so small.
The journey to the town
of Darjeeling is very slow
because the route through
the mountains is steep and
narrow. The 80-kilometre
journey sometimes takes
10 hours, but the views are
really impressive!
Tina, 16, New ZealandNorway is the place where you expect to find fiords, but we have our own ‘Fiordland’ in New Zealand! Some of the fiords, which are deep lakes between high mountains, are over 200 metres deep! Actually, some tourists already know about Fiordland because they made the film ‘The Lord of the Rings’ there. The people who know about it want to keep it a secret, though!
Petros, 13, Greece
Greece is famous for its ancient monuments and
sandy beaches, but did you know that it also has big
mountains, gorges and rivers? Zagori, in Epirus, where
I’m going this spring, is a fantastic mountain area in
the north of Greece. There are many paths. Some are
along the rivers and the gorges. There are also others
which you can take to hike to the tops of the mountains.
Secret Destinations
Answer the questions.
1 What’s another name for the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway train?
2 Why isn’t the train fast?
3 Why do some people know about Fiordland?
4 What do people expect to find in Greece?

Grammar
Relative clauses
We use relative clauses to give more information about people, animals and things. A relative clause begins with a relative pronoun (who, whose and which) or a relative adverb (where and when).Is that the boy whose name is Ahmad?Ireland is a place where it often rains.
There are two types of relative clauses: defining and non-defining.
Defining relative clauses give essential information about something or someone. Τhey can’t be separated from the rest of the sentence by commas. In defining relative clauses we can use that instead of who and which.Japan is a country which/that seems very interesting.
Non-defining relative clauses give extra information about something or someone. We separate them from the main part of the sentence with commas. We can’t use that instead of who and which.Crete, which is an island, is in Greece.Tina, who comes from New Zealand, is 14 years old.Sydney, where my grandparents live, is a big city
Pembrokeshire, which
is in Wales, is a great
place for a holiday.
Summer is the best time
to go there because it
often rains in winter.
(1) are lots of nice beaches
and old castles in Pembrokeshire.
(2) is also an island which you
can visit by boat. (3) is great
for a day trip.
(4) are also great hotels and
restaurants. (5) are cheap
and they have special prices for children.
I recommend a holiday in Pembrokeshire
because it’s beautiful and interesting.

Task
C Write a description of a famous place or landmark in your country. Include defining and non-defining relative clauses in your description and vocabulary from this unit.
Answer the questions.
What’s its name? Where is it? What is there to see and do there? Why do you think it’s interesting? Why do you recommend it?
D Read your description and make sure you have used There is, There are, It is and They are correctly.
WritingThere is / There are vs It is / They areA Read about the difference in use.
There is and There are are used to say what exists in a place we are describing. We then use It is and They are to refer back or to continue talking about what exists.
There is an ancient monument on that hill. It is very famous. There are many paths in the forest. They are very narrow.
Tip!Use adjectives to make your description
more interesting.
