you u n d e rlin e ?

Reading the exam question first
•

B efore you read th e te x t, re m e m b e r to read the
exam s ta te m e n ts carefully.

•

M ake sure you und e rlin e key w o rd s in each
s ta te m e n t so you know w h a t in fo rm a tio n to look for.

•

Read th e te x t q u ickly so you know w h a t it is about.
Then read th e te x t again and lo o k fo r w o rd s th a t
are sim ilar to th e w o rd s you u nderlined.

•

R em em ber th a t th e in fo rm a tio n in th e te x t is in the
same o rd e r as th e statem ents.

N o w c o m p le te th e E xam Task.

n iir f
Have you ever w ondered w h a t it w o u ld be like to have a
brother or a sister w h o looked ju s t like you? Maybe you
are a tw in . Holly and Daisy Preston, 14-year-old tw in s from
London, say there's n o th in g like it.'I feel really special,'says
Holly. Daisy agrees and adds,'It's fantastic having someone
w h o understands you c o m p le te ly .'If you are a tw in , you
probably know w hat th e y are ta lkin g about!
Scientists th in k tw ins are great, too, b u t fo r diffe re n t
reasons. They give scientists a unique o p p o rtu n ity to fin d
o u t w h at makes us w h o we are. That's because tw in s have

m ore in com m on than brothers and sisters born at d iffe re n t
times, b u t are still d iffe re n t from each o th e r in im p o rta n t
ways. By studying th e sim ilarities and differences betw een
tw ins, scientists can begin to fin d o u t w hich qualities are
passed dow n from ou r ancestors and w hich ones result
from our experiences in life.
There are tw o kinds o f tw ins, know n as identical and
fraternal. Identical tw ins are ofte n so sim ilar th a t it is
d iffic u lt to tell th e m apart. Twins th a t g ro w inside th e ir
m other at the same tim e, b u t are n o t identical, are called
fraternal tw ins.These tw in s can be b oth boys, b o th girls,
or one o f each.

Scientists have always w ondered ho w im p o rta n t genes
are. Yes, th e y dete rm in e w hich relative we look like, but
w h a t a b o u t personality? Do our genes control w hether
w e like music o r are outgoing? Or, are our personalities
a result o f th e way w e g ro w up and th e experiences we
have? Interestingly, researchers have discovered th a t both
o u r genes and o u r experiences play a role in fo rm in g our
personality. For example, you may have a gene th a t makes
you creative, b u t if your e n vironm ent does not give you the
chance to show your creativity, it may never be revealed.
Identical tw ins can show us this relationship between genes
and environm ent. If it were only our genes th a t influenced
everything about us, identical tw ins w ould be identical in
every way. N ot only w ould th e y look the same, b u t they
w ould like th e same kinds o f music, clothes and friends. But
they don't. Studying such differences can help scientists to
fin d o u t w h a t makes us the same and w hat makes us different.

Identical tw ins are interesting to scientists because o f
th e ir genes, w hich determ ine th e co lo u r o f th e ir hair and
eyes, th e shape o f th e ir nose and m outh, th e ir h e ig ht
and more. M ost people g e t a d iffe re n t m ixtu re o f genes
from th e ir parents.That explains w hy you m ig h t take after
your mother, w hile yo u r sister takes after your father. But
w ith identical tw ins, each one gets passed d o w n exactly
the same genes from each parent. That is w h a t makes
them 'identical'.

Exam Task
Look at th e sentences b e lo w a b o u t tw ins. Read th e te x t to d e c id e if each sentence is co rre ct o r incorrect.
W rite T (True) or F (False).
1 H olly and Daisy are sisters.
2 H olly and Daisy understand each o th e r w ell.
3 Scientists th in k tw in s are g re a t because
be in g a tw in is a unique o p p o rtu n ity .
4 It is always easy to te ll identical tw in s apart.
5 Fraternal tw ins lo o k th e same.

6 Genes d o n o t co n tro l o u r eye colour.

Danger at the ends of the Earth

the p re tty villages o f Nunavik have not
escaped the problems th a t the rest o f the
w orld is facing, too.

Welcome to Nunavik - a beautiful
landscape o f forests, blue skies and clear
waters. It's a huge area w ith 14 Inuit
villages in the Arctic area o f Canada.
Wild animals, such as bears and wolves,
can be seen everywhere. There are also
caribou (a kind o f reindeer), and fish fill
the rivers, lakes and sea. In summer, the
sun shines day and night, and so this
is when the people fish, h unt and pick
berries. W inter is cold and dark, b u t at
night, stars fill the clear, dark sky and you
can often even see the Northern Lights.
You m ight th in k that Nunavik's

geographical position at the ends o f the
Earth keeps it safe from big city problems
like air and water pollution. Unfortunately,

Some years ago, scientists made a
w orrying discovery. An extrem ely
dangerous group o f chemicals know n as
'persistent organic pollutants' (or POPs)
were attacking the Arctic environm ent.
There are few factories there and not
m any cars, so where was th e pollu tio n
com ing from? It turns o u t th a t it was
com ing from cities thousands o f
kilom etres away. But how?
POPs are used everywhere - in TVs, in
lights and in paint. They are also sprayed
onto crops as pesticides. Over time, they
become gas and go into the air, and the
w ind carries them thousands o f kilometres.
When they reach a cold environment, the
gas becomes a liquid, like water. So when
the w ind carries POPs into the Arctic, cold
temperatures make them stick to plants
and fall into the oceans, where they stay
and increase over tim e. POPs also collect
inside the fat o f people and animals,
and they stay there forever. The biggest

animals, like seals and whales, have the I
most POPs in their bodies. These are the I

animals th a t Inuit people have been eatinj
for thousands o f years.
POPs can cause cancer and allergies, as
well as other damage.They can also causel
developmental problems in babies and |
children. Clearly, something had to be dorj
about the problem and so in the 1990s, thf
United Nations held a meeting called the I
Stockholm Convention to discuss bannind
lots of the POP chemicals. Since then, man
countries have agreed to start producing
fewer POP chemicals, and as a result, level
o f POPs in the Arctic are falling.
It will take many years for the problem tog
away. For one thing, buildings around the I
world still have many tons o f POPs in theirl
paint and wiring. Every day, those chemicj
turn into gas and enter the atmosphere, I
eventually reaching the Arctic.
For the Inuit people, and all the people
and animals in the Arctic regions, their |
only hope is the w ork o f scientists andt
help o f the rest o f the w orld in putting anj
end to POPs once and fo r all.

Some pets have shown astonishing courage in dangerous situations and have saved the lives of

their owners. Here, we tell you about four am azing animals.
A

Selvakumar, India

Selvakum ar looks like
every oth er dog in the
south Indian village
w here h e lives. An
obedient fam ily pet, he
plays with th e children,
sleeps with th e fam ily
and goes with seven-year-old Dinakaran to and from
hool.The events of D ecem ber 2 6 ,2 0 0 4 , however, proved
that Selvakumar isn’t ju st an ordinary dog. T hat w as the
day a huge tsunami hit the co a st around the Indian Ocean,
:luding the village w here Selvakum ar and his ow ners
~"ed. Most of the family had m anaged to run away from the
Jter, but Dinakaran w ent to th e fam ily’s hut, w hich w as
ly metres from the seashore. Selvakum ar ran into th e hut
er the boy. Pushing with his teeth, he m an aged to get the
boy up the hill and saved his life.

В Lulu, Australia
ilu, the pet kangaroo, w as rescued
bythe Richards family after her
ether had been killed by a car. Lulu
ned the favour one day when
she helped save the life of h er owner,
^4ralian farmer, Len Richards.

ling a storm, a falling tree knocked
Lenunconscious. Lulu quickly hopped

her husband and found him in a field.
5P —
‘azingly, it appeared th at Lulu had
med Len onto his side w hen he began being sick, which
A saved him from choking. Due to h er bravery, Lulu w as
lie first kangaroo to receive an anim al bravery award.

Gepetto, Canada

С

W inter in C anada is difficult. Early
one D ecem ber m orning in 2009,
Phyllis Sjogren woke up feeling very
cold. She turned th e heating up and
w en t back to bed. Phyllis noticed
she had a strong headach e, but ju st
ignored it. Later th a t m orning, she
w as woken up by h er cat, Gepetto.
By now, Phyllis felt dizzy and had trouble walking. She
com forted Gepetto because he seem ed upset, and then
called h er husband to tell him w h at w as happening.
Realising w h at th e problem w as, M artin Sjogren told his
wife to leave th e house im m ediately. So w h at w as the
problem? Their h om e had filled with carbon m onoxide gas
overnight, w hich can n o t be seen nor sm elt, but can cause

death. Gepetto had saved Phyllis’s life.

LuLu, USA

On a h ot August day, Jo Ann Altsm an had a h eart attack
in the bedroom of h er holiday hom e. After she collapsed,
h er dog began to bark loudly, but no one heard him. Then
LuLu, h er lovely pot-bellied pig, took control of the situation.
Pushing herself through a sm all doggie door, where she cut
h er stom ach, LuLu w aited by the road until a car approached.
Then, she walked onto the road and lay down in front of the
car. The driver stopped and got out. LuLu led the m an to the
house, where he called
an am bulance so that
Jo Ann w as saved. Many
