Born in 1988, heBegan playing piano at the age of five and was immediately recognized for his immense talent and musical ability.He gave his first piano recital at the age of eight and performed with anorchestra at the age of ten. Since then, Karim has moved to England to study at the Royal Academy of Music. He has also composed his own pieces, learnt to conduct orchestras and performed in countries throughout Europe and the Middle East. There is even a documentary, Karim's Journey that charts his growth from child prodigy to critically acclaimed performer.Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was one of the greatest musical geniuses of all time. He was born in Salzburg, Austria, in 1756 and began writing music before he was four years old. As a child prodigy he toured Europe, playing his own compositions on the violin and other instruments to astonished audiences which often included kings and queens.In common with many other child prodigies, Mozart lost some of his appeal to audiences when he became an adult.

===============The capital city of a country is very often its greatest city, with the largest population and the most important administrative buildings. Capital cities house government offices, as well as embassies from other countries. They are also financial centers, containing national and international banks and other financial institutions.Amman is no different from other capital cities in this respect – it is the seat of government and the economic and cultural centre of Jordan. Amman has the biggest population of any city in Jordan and is home to about a third of the people – 2.3 million people! Although many of the buildings are very smart and futuristic, the city actually has a history going back over 8,000 years. It was only established as the capital in 1921, but has many ancient buildings.Brasilia, the capital city of Brazil, is both similar to and different fromAmman. Like Amman, it is an administrative centre and contains the keyPolitical buildings and institutions. However, unlike Amman, Brasilia is not the major cultural or economic centre of Brazil, and with 2.5 million people, it is home to only a tiny fraction of the huge Brazilian population.

Q1: why are the capital cities of every country are important? Q2: what does the underlined pronoun they, it refer to? Q3: write down the sentence which mentioned the establishment of old buildings.

==========================================Jordan has undergone a period of rapid modernization in the last few years, with high-tech and high-rise buildings being built in its major cities, especially Amman. Yet it remains an ancient land that has enjoyed involvement andinteraction with many different civilizations over the last ten thousand years. Jordan's historical importance means that there is a variety of traditional crafts practiced by skilled local artisans and, despite the fast pace of modernization, there are increasing efforts by the state and by charities to preserve these wonderful traditions.One example of this can be found in Madaba, where an organization has been set up to help preserve the world-famous mosaics found there. These ancient mosaics are made with thousands of tiny pieces of colored stone or tile. They give us information about the way people lived at the time, tell us about old kings and illustrate

3

z.yasin – 079/ 69393610777/571734

ancient maps and pictures of local events. They are very useful for historians.Today, local people are taught how to make these mosaics for commercial sale. This helps to educate people about the need to protect what is old, while also providing them with a living.Probably the most ancient craft in Jordan is the creation of items made from silsal (clay). Madaba played a major role in trading pottery throughout Europe and the Arab world and examples was first made in the Levant over 8000 years ago. Historians have uncovered many examples of fine Nabataean pottery in both Jordan and the surrounding countries.1) According to paragraph one; Jordan has witnessed a period of rapidModernization. Write down an example for this modernization.2) According to paragraph three, what was the reason for setting up an organization in Madaba?3) According to the last paragraph, what is the oldest craft in Jordan?4) According to paragraph three, how can Mosaics be culturally useful for historians and people?5) Traditional crafts are very important. Who are making increasing efforts to preserve them?6) People are learning how to make mosaics for two reasons. Write them down.7) Write down the sentence which shows what ancient mosaics are made with.8) Write down the sentence which shows the time and place of inventing pottery.9) What does the underlined pronoun “They” in the third paragraph refer to?10) Find a word in paragraph two which means “having a special ability or talent”.11) According to paragraph one; the writer thinks that Jordan is related to the past despite the new modernization. Is he justified in this? ExplainTraditional crafts can help people and historians read and understand past events. Think of this statement and, in two sentences, write down your

Jordan has undergone a period of rapid modernisation in the last few years, with high-techand high-risebuildings being built in its major cities, especially Amman. Yet it remains an ancient that has enjoyed

34

z.yasin – 079/ 69393610777/571734

involvement and interaction with many different civilisations over the last ten thousand years.Jordan's historical importance means that there is a variety of traditional crafts practiced by skilled localartisans and, despite the fast pace of modernisation, there are increasing effort by the state and by charitiesto preserve these wonderful traditions. One example of this can be found in Madaba, where anorganization has been set up to help preserve the world-famous mosaics found there. These ancientmosaics are made with thousands of tiny pieces of coloured stone or tile. They give us information aboutthe way people lived at the time, tell us about old kings and illustrate ancient maps and pictures of localevents. They are very useful for historians.Today, local people are taught how to make these mosaics for commercial sale. This helps to educatepeople about the need to protect what is old, while also providing them with living. Probably the mostancient craft in Jordan is the creation of items made from silsal (clay).Madaba played a major role intrading pottery throughout Europe and the Arab world and pottery was first made in the Levant over 8000years ago. Historians have uncovered many examples of fine Nabataean pottery in both Jordan and thesurrounding countries.Pottery is still produced in the same ancient attractive style by craftsmen at Madaba today, althoughmodern technology means the methods have changed slightly. Nevertheless, local artists are still producingbeautiful works worthy of a high price.
