BAI 1

We’re Living Faster, But Are We Living Better?

Not long ago people believed that in the future we would work less, have
more free time, and be more relaxed. But sadly this has not happened.
Today we work harder, work longer hours, and are more stressed than ten
years ago. We walk faster, talk faster, and sleep less than previous
generations. And although we are obsessed with machines which save us
time, we have less free time than our parents and grandparents had. But
what is this doing to our health? An American journalist James Gleick in a
new book, Faster: the acceleration of just about everything, says that
people who live in cities are suffering from ‘hurry sickness’ – we are always
trying to do more things in less time. As a result, our lives are more
stressful. He says that if we don’t slow down, we won’t live as long as our
parents. For most people, faster doesn’t mean better.

1. F The writer wrote the article to encourage us to work more and
relax less.

2. F People today are having a less stressful life than they did in the

Fill the gaps with these words from the text

A recruitment firm gives this advice to new workers:

It is important to Invest Work
time in your relationships with others at . Get to

know the people who work near you: Introduce yourself to them and tell them

something about yourself. If people ask for your help,

always Respondpositively. Don’t Ignore emails or phone calls just because

you are busy. If you make a mistake, it is better to Admit it and then

apologise. When things go wrong, stay calm and Avoidshouting and using

bad language. Remember good Mannershelp to Improve your working Environment

, and you will find you can enjoy your work more.

Text 1 Bad manners at work

Etiquette is the name we give to the rules for being polite in a social
group. Business etiquette is important for people who often have to make
new contacts and build relationships in their work. Politeness can also

help to improve the working environment for people in the same office.
Some cultures and situations are formal, which means that we have to
follow rules; other cultures and situations are more informal.

Text 2 Office workers “admit being rude”

Most office workers say they are rude or bad-mannered at work. Two out of
three workers regularly arrive late for meetings, most ignore emails and
three out of four use bad language. In a survey of 1,000 workers, two-thirds
say that pressure of work is the reason for bad manners.

Other common examples of bad office etiquette include ignoring colleagues
and answering mobile phone calls during meetings. Using mobile phones in
meetings is impolite and distracts others, research by the University of
Surrey shows. If you respond to call when speaking to somebody, it means
that the phone call is more important than the person, the survey said. If
you answer a call during a meeting, it could mean that the meeting is not
important.

Mr Jacobs, managing director of Office Angels, a recruitment firm say it is
easy for people to forget their manners in the working environment, which
is often very informal and very busy. Workers can forget proper etiquette
such as introducing people at meetings, and this is often bad for working
relationships.

Psychologist Dr Colin Gill believes that people are not as polite as they
were twenty years ago. He said: ‘Courtesy is no longer something that is so
much respected in our society.’ People think it is ‘stuffy to be polite or
formal.’

Now some organisations are actually investing money in training their junior
managers to be polite. Office Angels is encouraging people to arrive on
time for meetings, turn off mobile phones and avoid bad manners at work is
such a simple thing to do,’ Mr Jacobs says, ‘ and it can have a dramatic
impact on improving your working environment and your relationships with
others.’

Sea Turtles Feel the Heat

A Sea Turtles are some of the oldest species in the world. The earliest
sea turtles appeared over 200 million years ago. Today, however, sea turtle
are in trouble. Their populations are getting smaller due to human activities
and climate change.

B In Australia, conservationists are studying the effects of climate change
on sea turtles. They believe global warming may affect sea turtles in
several ways. First, warming temperatures lead to rising sea levels. As sea
levels rise, beach areas become flooded. Sea turtles lay their eggs in the
beach sand. Flooding can destroy sea turtle nests and the eggs inside
them.

C Global warming also raises the temperature of sand around a sea
turtle’s nest. The temperature of the nest affects the sex of the turtle’s
eggs. Warmer temperatures (above 84 degrees Fahrenheit, or 29 degrees
Celsius) produce mostly females. Cooler temperatures produce more
males. So, as global temperature rise, more female babies will be born.
Scientists predict that in 50 years almost all sea turtle babies in northern
Australia will be female.

D To survive these changes, sea turtles will need to adapt. But adapting
is difficult because the environmental changes are happening quickly. In
addition, sea turtles are more at risk from other dangers, especially ones

related to human activities. For example, some populations are getting
smaller because of predators brought in by humans. As conservationist
Mariana Fuentes says, ‘We can’t be sure if sea turtles will adapt on their
own.’ They may need our help to survive.

E One of Fuentes’s projects is at Turtle Camp, a beach in northern
Australia. Here, Fuentes helps to protect turtles that are laying eggs. She
works with a team of rangers and researchers. Together,
they prevent predators such as wild pigs and dogs from eating the turtles’
eggs. Without the rangers’ help, the turtles were losing up to 90% of their
eggs. Now there are fewer predators, so the turtles can safely lay their
eggs.

Write the letter of the correct paragraph (A-E) from the reading next to
its main idea.

[D] 1. Seaturtles may need help to survive climate change and other
dangers.

[E] 2. Fuentes help to protect the areas where sea turtles lay their
eggs.

[A] 3. Sea turtles are old species, but they are now in trouble.

[C] 4. Warmer temperatures affect the sex of sea turtles.

[B] 5. Climate change is causing problems for sea turtles.
Complete the notes with details from the reading.

1. Sea turtles have been around for more than [200

million] years.

2. The number of sea turtles is getting smaller due to

[Human activities] and [climate change].

3. Sea turtles lay their eggs in nests in the [Beach sand].

4. Predators such as [Wild pigs] and [dogs] are dangerous

for sea turtles.

5. Before Fuentes and her helpers started Turtle Camp, sea turtles were

losing almost [90] percent of their eggs.
