Speed dating started in the USA and quickly spread to other countries. The idea is to meet a number of different peoplein the same room. In a short time you must decide if you want to see them again in the future. You have just sevenminutes to talk to each person. After that time, you must end the conversation and move on to the next person.

Find out as much as you can!After that time, you must move on and talk to a different person.Dont exchange personal information (your address and phone number, for example).

And it isnt a good idea to talk about work or money!After a few conversations with different people, its time to make a decision.Who do you want to see again?

________________________________________________________________________________________e Did Nelson Mandela ever give up hope? ____________________________________________________

fWhen did he win the Nobel Prize? _________________________________________________________

Unit3

Many people think Nelson Mandela is the most important leader in history. This is because he

tried to improve conditions, not only for black people in South Africa, but for everybody all over

the world.

a_____ When he became the first democratically elected black President of South Africa in 1994,

it was another step in an extraordinary journey. His autobiography, A Long Walk to Freedom, talks

about this journey, which began when he was born in 1918 in a village called Qunu. His father

was a Chief of the Tembu tribe.

b____ He was a special person from an early age. When Nelson was a child, almost no blackchildren could go to school, but Mandela studied and became a lawyer. This was very useful to

him when he started his fight against apartheid, the separation of black and white people in all

areas of society, which began in South Africa in the 1940s.

c____ Nelson fought hard to help people. In the 1940s and 1950s he talked about education,

formed organizations and led protests, but legally he couldnt do much because black people did

not have the same rights as white people.

d____ The government put Nelson in prison in 1962. At first it was for five years; then they

changed the sentence to life imprisonment. Mandela never gave up his belief that freedom and

equality for everybody was right.

e____ Eventually, the political system changed and Mandelas resistance, even while he was in jail,was an important reason for this change. He was released in 1990 after almost twenty-eight years

in prison. Three years later, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace. Mandela was truly a

champion of the people.

3 Think of some well-known disabled people. Make a list and compare with two or threestudents. Did you think of the same people?

Unit3

Throughout history courageous people have not let their physical impediments stop them from fulfilling their dreams.

They did or are doing great things, in spite of their disabilities.

A famous person from the past is Beethoven, one of the greatest composers of all times. When he was only four

years old, he showed a love for music, and his father began to teach him to play the piano and violin. As a young man

Beethoven began to lose his hearing, and some years later became totally deaf. But he still continued to compose

music. In fact, during this time he wrote some of his greatest works, which he was never able to hear performed.

Helen Keller was born in 1880, in Alabama. When she was nineteen months old, she became ill with a high feverand lost her sight and hearing; she was left in a dark, soundless world. Anne Sullivan came to teach Helen to

communicate. After long months, she was finally able to teach Helen the word water by finger spelling on her hand.

This was an important breakthrougha miracle had happened! From then on, Helen learned quickly and eventually

attended Radcliffe College.

Born in 1945 in Israel, Itzhak Perlman is one of the worlds greatest violinists. He became sick with polio at the

age of four and his legs were permanently paralyzed. Nevertheless, he began his music career at the Tel-Aviv

Academy of Music. Mr. Pearlman has won many awards and has played with every major orchestra in events all over

the world. He performs his music while seated and walks with crutches. He is a well-known advocate for people with

disabilities.

Stephen Hawking is a Mathematics professor at Cambridge University. He became famous in 1988 when he wrote

A Brief History of Time. The book tries to explain how the universe began. Professor Hawking is almost totally

paralyzed as a result of a motor neurone disease and he uses a voice synthesizer to speak. His brain, however, is as

active as ever. He is still writing today.

a__________________________________________

Cabaret is a famous movie that is set in Berlin during the GreatDepression in the 1930s, a period when there was poverty andfinancial difficulties all over the world. It was during this time that AdolfHitler came to power in Germany, because he promised the peoplehe could solve their problems.

b__________________________________________

In the end, instead of helping the German people, his actions

contributed to the beginning of the Second World War. One of thereasons for this was that he employed lots of people in the factoriesto make weapons. That meant that people in Germany had work,but other countries in Europe became afraid of what Hitler was goingto do. They were right to be afraid. During the 1930s Hitler brokelots of promises and began to invade countries around Germany.

c__________________________________________

The story ofCabaretwas written by a man who had lived in Berlin during the 1920s. It takes placeat the beginning of the 1930s, when Hitlers Nazi party was becoming very strong. Before beingmade into a movie, Cabaretwas a novel and then a musical for the stage. It was written during the1960s and was a great success.

d__________________________________________

It was even more successful when it was turned into a moviein the 1970s starring the famous actress and singer LizaMinelli. One of the most famous songs from the movie

it is not in the original musical is called Money, Money.This song tells us that money is the most important thingin the world for many people.

Certainly, when people dont have money, it can cause manyproblems.

Reading the signs



1Match these questions with the texts.a Why do some zodiac signs have more days than others? __

b How does it work? __c Is it the same all over the world? __

dWhere did the idea of the zodiac come from? __

e Why did people think the stars were important? __

fWhere does our modern twelve-symbol zodiac come from? __

1 In ancient times, people didnt really understand how the Earth, the sun, and the stars moved.

They observed the sky all the time and imagined that the constellationsthe way the stars

appear to be in groupsmight be important.

2 Several of these constellations are in the zodiac and are represented by symbols. Peoplethought that the changing positions of the constellations at different times of the year affected

people and events on Earth. They imagined stories about their gods and other myths.

3 Imagine a straight line drawn from Earth through the Sun and out into space. Then, as the

Earth orbits the Sun, the imaginary line would rotate, pointing to different stars throughout one

complete orbit, which takes one year.

4 The Babylonians lived over 3,000 years ago. They divided their year into twelve months

because of the Moon. So they divided the zodiac into twelve equal partslike cutting a pizza

into twelve equal slicesand each month got a slice of the zodiac all to itself.

5According to the Babylonians own ancient stories, there were thirteen constellations in the

zodiac. The Babylonians picked one, Ophiuchus, to leave out. But the constellations are different

sizes and shapes. So the Sun spends different lengths of time lined up with each one.6 Other cultures and traditions have recognized as many as twenty-four constellations in the

zodiacit all depends on the different parts of the world! Maybe the Babylonians just didnt like

the number thirteen. It is unlucky, you know

2Now match these ideas to the paragraphs they describe best.a ___ The Babylonians wanted to make their zodiac the same as their year.

b___ Its a bit like a very big clock.

c ___ Sometimes, things dont fit perfectly into place!d___ Things that happen in space can change things on Earth.

e ___ People interpret things in different ways all over the world.

f___ Science was quite simple in the past. People watched things and had ideas.

3 Find words in the texts that mean the same as these:a looked at ______________

b very old ______________

c thought about ______________

d move in space ______________e a piece of something ______________

f bad luck ______________
