1. Read this article on Extinction. The sentences above it were taken from the article put them in
the correct place.
Its easy to think of extinction as a big, dramatic event, the product of an asteroid collision or the invasion of
new, aggressive species. 1. ___________________. Researchers estimate that between 1 and 4 billion species
have lived on Earth during its history. All but about 50 million of those are gone today. 2. ___________________.
Based on analysis of the fossil record, researchers estimate that most species on Earth have an overall life
5
span of about 10 million years. Its an ongoing cycle of plants, animals and microscopic organisms appearing
in the fossil record, remaining for about 10 million years and disappearing. 3. ___________________.
Live forms are dying out much faster today than they appear to at any point in the fossil record. No one

The major cause of these extinctions isnt global warming or acid rain - its habitat loss. As the human population
grows and more of the planet becomes industrialized, natural habitats for plants and animals disappear.
5. ___________________. The loss of plant and animal species can lead to everything from food shortages
to poor soil quality. The loss of microscopic organisms can also play a role. For example, one theory about the

so much when you were a little girl; but now you are so tall, and turn up your hair, you should

I aint! and if turning up my hair makes me one, Ill wear it in two tails till Im twenty, cried Jo, pulling

I hate to think Ive got to grow up and be Miss March, and wear long gowns, and look as prim as a
China-aster. Its bad enough to be a girl, any-way, when I like boys games, and work, and manners.
I cant get over my disappointment in not being a boy, and its worse than ever now, for Im dying to
go and ght with papa, and I can only stay at home and knit like a poky old woman, and Jo shook
the blue army-sock till the needles rattled like castanets, and her ball bounded across the room.

hope. They are the elect to whom beautiful things mean only Beauty. There is no such thing as a
moral or an immoral book. Books are well written, or badly written. That is all.
C. I want Luke here so badly. I want to be held and told my name. I want to be valued, in ways that I
am not; I want to be more than valuable. I repeat my former name, remind myself of what I once
could do, how others saw me.
D. The Cullens dont come here, he said in a tone that closed the subject, ignoring her question.
Tyler, trying to win back her attention, asked Laurens opinion on a CD he held. She was distracted.
I stared at the deep-voiced boy, taken aback, but he was looking away toward the dark forest
behind us. Hed said that the Cullens didnt come here, but his tone had implied something more
that they werent allowed; they were prohibited. His manner left a strange impression on me, and I
tried to ignore it without success.

LIFE OF PI (2012)
1. Read the review on the lm Life of Pi and order the paragraphs accordingly.
Though its more a feast for the eyes than food for thought, the lyricism and visual
magnicence makes Life Of Pi an unmissable experience. And do see it in a good cinema. This
poetic Life of Pi concludes with a fascinating, deliberately prosaic coda that raises questions
about the reality of what weve seen and confronts the teleological issues involved. One thinks
of the reporters remark at the end of The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance: When the legend
becomes fact, print the legend.
At another level, Sam Goldwyns advice to the screenwriter comes to mind: Give me the story
and send the message by Western Union.
Ang Lee has brought to the screen a seemingly unlmable story with breathtaking mastery
of computer animation. His previous achievements such as Brokeback Mountain, Sense
And Sensibility and The Ice Storm have shown him to be one of the most versatile directors
on the planet. This is up there with the best of them. In French India, the young son of
a zoo owner collects world religions the way other kids collect stamps. They were my
superheroes, he says, checking o a list of deities. Such good karma, sad to say, doesnt
necessarily make for good drama. Youre almost grateful for the arrival of the storm that
sinks the boat bearing Pi, his family and their animal entourage to the new world, leaving the
boy alone on a boat with one of his fathers tigers.
Life of Pi must be the most beautiful lm of the year, a technical marvel, and magic realism
at its most magical. Anyone who has read Yann Martels Booker Prize-winning novel will
know that it tells the story of an Indian teenager named Pi (Suraj Sharma) shipwrecked in
a lifeboat with a ravenous Bengal tiger. They encounter many marvels a sky full of ying
sh, an ocean swimming with iridescent jellysh, a carnivorous island. All these wonders
and more are brought to the screen with dreamlike intensity. This is one of two lms this
year the other was, amazingly enough, Madagascar 3 that has used 3D in creative and
revolutionary ways.
It isnt perfect. It does not fulll its promise of making us believe in God; on the contrary, it
reminds us more of human resilience, thanks in part to an extraordinary performance by
the inexperienced leading actor. The twist ending, which calls into question the veracity of
all that has gone before, is of questionable merit. But it certainly shows how storytellers
embellish the truth in order to bring out its deeper meaning.

Its 2013 in Long Beach, California. Idealistic Erin Gruwell is just starting her rst managing job,
as freshman and sophomore English teacher at Woodrow Wilson High School, which, two years
earlier, implemented a voluntary integration program. For many of the existing teachers, the
integration has beneted the school, whose previously stellar academic standing has been
replaced with many students who will be lucky to graduate or even be literate. Despite not
having chosen the school on purpose because of its integration program, Erin is unprepared
for the nature of her classroom, whose students live by generations of strict moral codes of
protecting their own at all cost. Many are in gangs and almost all know somebody that has
been killed by gang violence. The Latinos hate the Cambodians who hate the blacks and so
on. The only person the students hate more is Ms Gruwell. It isnt until Erin gives them a written
test about a recent drive-by shooting death that she fully begins to understand what shes up
against. And it isnt until she gives up teaching them that the students begin to open up to her.

For years, I have had the dangers of cyberspace drilled into me from parents, from teachers, from
various adults. I have been to multiple seminars and workshops through school, been forced to

stalkers, I am fully aware of just how detrimental the time spent in cyberspace can be. Maybe its
paranoia from the constant warnings, but whenever I am talking to someone online its always in
the back of my mind that they arent who they say they are. And, no, I dont necessarily mean that
every time Im talking to my best mate Im wondering if it is a seventy year old paedophile; its not
that extreme. Sometimes, however, if I get a weird wall post or someone sends me a strange inbox,
I wonder if it is actually one of my friends, or one of their mates who has hacked their account and
is having a bit of a joke. And this isnt unrealistic. We all know that when a group of giggly girls get
together or even a gang of burly boys a simple prank call, or prank online message, can be extremely
amusing; but doesnt it make you think how easy it is to switch identities when online? Nobody even
has to hear your voice, let alone see your face, and you can write whatever you like, whenever you
like, with no more contact other than that given from your computer monitor. Its not only the fact
that we can never be sure who we are talking to, but other aspects come into it too. Parents actually
do have a point when they moan about their children spending too much time on Facebook instead
of doing their homework or getting outside. At our age its hard to grasp the concept that this is time
we will never get back and it will be gone in the blink of an eye, or so I get told. A balance between
work and play is what a healthy lifestyle consists of, and when this balance is upset by countless
hours spent on Facebook, the situation rarely ends well.

Certainly, there are many advantages to Facebook. The easiness of communication is the obvious

FINDING SOLUTIONS
1. Read the following transcript of the scene from the lm The Great Dictator, by Charlie
Chaplin.
Greed has poisoned mens souls; has barricaded the world with hate; has goose-stepped us into
misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives
abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical; our cleverness, hard and unkind.
We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness,
we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost. The
aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together. The very nature of these inventions cries out
for the goodness in man; cries out for universal brotherhood; for the unity of us all.
Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world, millions of despairing men, women, and
little children, victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people. To those who
can hear me, I say Do not despair. The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed, the
bitterne make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure. Then in the name of
democracy, let us use that power.
Soldiers! Dont give yourselves to brutes, men who despise you and enslave you; who regiment your
lives, tell you what to do, what to think and what to feel! Who drill you, diet you, treat you like cattle,
use you as cannon fodder! Dont give yourselves to these unnatural men machine men with machine
minds and machine hearts! You are not machines! You are not cattle! You are men! You have a love of
humanity in your hearts! You dont hate! Only the unloved hate; the unloved and the unnatural.

DEMOCRACY
2.
2.1 Model answer: Democracy is a
responsibility not only for politicians but also
for citizens in general (voters), because all
citizens have an equal say in the decisions
that aect their lives. Therefore, citizens
must give their opinions and be informed
about everything that happens, and in order
to be heard, they must speak and have an
active voice in the governments decisionmaking. Politicians must respect citizens
and citizens must ght for their rights.
2.2 Personal answer.
2.3 Model answer: In a democracy, people
are free to say and do as they wish, but only
to a certain extent. Everybodys freedom
ends when that freedom contradicts or
interferes in any way with another persons
freedom. Doing what one wants without
respecting the others will be chaos and not
real freedom. After all, ones freedom ends
where the others nose begins.

5.1 The subject is in Hamburg, Germany;
5.2 A man attacks both the subject and a
friend, Anna, verbally.
5.3 Silence is compared to a killer, a shroud,
something that is put around dead people
before they are buried.
5.4 The subject feels that way, because
the silence is due to the lack of translation
of the mans words. They were probably
insulting and the fact of not understanding
the language and the discomfort of being
left out due to lack of translation makes it
even more dicult for the subject to accept
it. The subject feels that the incident is
being killed the imposed silence, as though
it hadnt happened. She also feels angry
her face is red with rage.
5.5 The subject remembers an episode in
school, when someone referred to her skin
colour in French Parce quelle est noire
and pronounced those words with rage and
hatred.
5.6 It was not just the fact of being judged
for ones skin colour, but the fact that the
words had to be translated. She couldnt
defend herself fom the attack; she felt angry
and humiliated by her lack of language, as
well as by the vicious racism;

CONOR N. A. ROWELL
2.
a. the subject; b. uorescent lights; c. toy
aisle; d. girls toys (blonde dolls)
3.
3.1 The subject is at a supermarket or
hypermarket because s/he is looking for
the toy aisle.
3.2 S/he thinks it is an incorrect designation,
because aisle is singular, but in reality there
is always more than one aisle.
3.3 This happens because usually girls and
boys toys are separated and may come
in dierent aisles, or at least on opposite
shelves on opposite sides of the corridor.
3.4 This expression denotes the irony
of the toys production. Toys are usually
intended at children, so they represent fun,
pleasure and entertainment, but the fact
is that sometimes they are produced by
other children (or adults) under cruel and
harsh working conditions. The term used
to describe these working environments
is sweatshops, which has therefore a
negative connotation. Child labour laws are
often violated, the workers work for long
hours an receive very low wages.
3.5 S/he is looking for a present for her/his
daughter, but s/he isnt happy with what s/
he nds. In the girls aisle s/he only nds
the typical girls presents blond dolls, and
pink, lacy toys. In the boys aisle she also
nds what people traditionally give boys
soldiers, fast cars and guns. That is, society
perpetuates the concepts of femininity and
masculinity by inculcating these ideas into
children as soon as they are born.
3.6 The subject means that traditionally the
most common present for girls is a blond
doll. It passes the message that girls should
copy that model, and be dolls in real life, that
is only care about clothes and appearances.
3.7 Its girls paradox, because they do not
see themselves in these toys and although
we tell them to be themselves, they are
always subject to role models that do
not respect their true selves. Also, they
are forced into liking these toys, because
society will criticise them if they start
playing with other (boys or not) toys. With
boys the same thing happens.

5.1 It happens at the little girls grandparents
home, in the country;
5.2 No, they arent, because they grow their

we can see by the way they speak they
do not use grammatically correct English:
What your teacher say? instead of what
did your teacher say? or she buy all her
cabbages instead of she buys all her
cabbages, for example;
5.3 He feels proud;
5.4 They are kind, loving people, who love
their granddaughter, accompany her and
show appreciation for everything she does.
For example, they stop working when she
arrives home from school;
5.5 They value school and respect the
teacher. For them whatever the teacher
says, the girl must do;
5.6 She wrote a story about butteries, but
the teacher didnt like it, because the girl killed
the butteries and the teacher said butteries
were beautiful and should not be killed;
5.7 They liked the story because it shows
their reality: butteries eggs hatch on the
cabbages leaves and destroy them, thats
why it is important for them, farmers, to kill
them;
5.8 We must always see things from
dierent perspectives and not judge
everything from our own point of view as
the only one possible. Both the teacher and
the grandparents were right, for example.

2.1 Model answer: The slice of time in the
rst stanza refers back to the old days
(1971), when American Pie, a song by Don
McLean, was a hit on the radio. There was a
verse Drove my Chevy to the levee in the
chorus which inspired the second verse of
the rst stanza.

to the same songs, which doesnt happen
nowadays as there is a greater variety.
2.3 Model answer: S/he is again referring
to Dons American Pie. S/he feels nostalgic

2.4 Model answer: Nowadays, people
interact more on a digital basis through
the Internet, on blogs. They are a click away
from each other. Stories seem to end before
they even begin. People have lost the
human connection that had once had.
2.5 This song is paying homage to music

ANSWER KEY
5. Its 1994 in Long Beach, California.
Idealistic Erin Gruwell is just starting
her rst teaching job, as freshman and
sophomore English teacher at Woodrow
Wilson High School, which, two years
earlier, implemented a voluntary integration
program. For many of the existing teachers,
the integration has ruined the school, whose
previously stellar academic standing has
been replaced with many students who
will be lucky to graduate or even be literate.
Despite choosing the school on purpose
because of its integration program, Erin is
unprepared for the nature of her classroom,
whose students live by generations of
strict moral codes of protecting their own
at all cost. Many are in gangs and almost
all know somebody that has been killed
by gang violence. The Latinos hate the
Cambodians who hate the blacks and so
on. hate more is Ms. Gruwell. It isnt until
Erin holds an unsanctioned discussion
about a recent drive-by shooting death that
she fully begins to understand what shes
up against. And it isnt until she provides
an assignment of writing a daily journal which will be not graded, and will remain
unread by her unless they so choose - that
the students begin to open up to her.
