.	Translate the text Measuring health and happiness (3) However, there was another survey of the happiest countries in the world and Iceland was not near the top. The questions on this survey included: How much do you earn? How healthy are you? How safe do you feel? After visiting 155 different countries, the researchers decided that Denmark feels happier than other countries. So does happiness equal money and good health? Not according to the artist Erik Krikortz. He feels that there are other ways of measuring happiness. Krikortz has a website and visitors click on different happy or sad faces to comment on how well they sleep, their family and friends, their level of stress, their inspiration and their physical activity. When you finish, his website adds the results for each area and it gives you a final result for your happiness.
.	Translate the text A The Idiotarod The Idiotarod is an annual race in New York City. Each team must have five people and a shopping cart. They can decorate their carts but they can’t change the wheels. All the teams have to start and finish at the same place but they don’t have to run on the same roads. The teams can choose their route but the members of each team must arrive at the finish line together. And they mustn’t finish without the cart!
.	Translate the text Bolivian wrestlers Wrestling in Bolivia is incredibly popular and after a hard day’s work many people love watching this mixture of sport, drama and entertainment. Usually, the wrestling matches are between men wearing masks and special costumes. But in El Alto you can also see women wrestling where it’s especially popular. Yolanda is one of the top women wrestlers. Her father was also a wrestler so it’s a family tradition. During the day she makes clothes. She also has two daughters who both look like her. Would they like to become wrestlers one day? Yolanda doesn’t think so. ‘My daughters ask me why Ido this. It’s dangerous and they complain that wrestling doesn’t bring any money into the house.’ But Yolanda loves wrestling because of her fans, and she has lots of them!
.	Translate the text The best way to travel In the most northern state of the USA you’ll see every type of modern transport. But during the winter months the state of Alaska becomes one of the coldest parts of the world.Temperatures fall as low as –50˚C. Car engines can freeze and even if your car starts, the snow and ice on the road can make travel impossible. When the weather is like this, the best way to travel is with a team of huskies pulling you. That’s according to people like Geoff Roland who prefer travelling by dog sledge. ‘Huskies might not be as fast as a modern snowmobile but they are better for the environment. The journey is also much quieter than by snowmobile. It’s what makes travel through the wilderness so enjoyable.’
.	Translate the text THE ROAD TRIPPERS Steven Shoppman and Stephen Bouey were old friends who grew up together in Denver. But they knew each other a lot better after their adventure. They both had an ambition to go on a road trip round the world. From 2007 to 2010, they drove through 69 different countries during their 122,000-kilometre journey and had many adventures. They took a big risk when they went across a minefield (see photo). They also got help from lots of people and they found that the world wasn’t as dangerous as they thought!
.	Translate the text How did the Plastiki begin? One day, the environmentalist David De Rothschild was reading some information about all the plastic in the seas and oceans. He couldn’t believe what he was reading. For example, humans throw away four out of every five plastic bottles they use and plastic rubbish causes about eighty per cent of the pollution in the sea. Soon afterwards, Rothschild decided he wanted to help the fight against pollution in the sea. To create publicity for the problem, he started building a boat made of plastic bottles.
.	Translate the text The journey De Rothschild sailed the Plastikiacross the Pacific Ocean from San Francisco to Sydney. That’s fifteen thousand three hundred and seventy two nautical kilometres. On the way, De Rothschild took the special boat through the ‘Great Garbage Patch’. It is a huge area in the Pacific with 3.5 billion kilogrammes of rubbish. You can see every kind of human rubbish here: shoes, toys, bags, toothbrushes, but the worst problem is the plastic. It kills birds and sea life.
.	Translate the text Translate the text Changing your life Rich and Amanda Ligato were professional people with successful careers. Every week, they worked hard. They often intended to do something fun and exciting at the weekend but, in the end, there was never time. One day they asked themselves, ‘Is this all there is?’ They realised that they wanted to stop working and to go travelling. Or, as Rich said, ‘To buy our freedom.’ But first they needed to save some money. Every month they lived on Rich’s salary and saved Amanda’s. Then they bought a campervan to travel from the bottom of South America to Brazil and from there they hoped to get to Africa on a container ship. Colleagues at work found their decision difficult to understand. Even their closest friends thought they were crazy to go on this kind of journey but finally, the day came. They left their home and started to live their dream.
.	Translate the text Saving languages Five hundred years ago, Europeans arrived on a new continent. They brought new cultures and languages to this place which they called America. However, there were already people living there who had their own cultures and languages. And so a terrible part of history began. As more Europeans arrived, there was a fight for the land with the native American Indians. By the end of the nineteenth century, the Indian tribes were moved to reservations. A lot of their children were taken away to boarding schools and these children were taught to speak English. By the end of the twentieth century more than half of the Native Americans in the US were living in cities. They gave up speaking their old tribal language and only used English. As a result, many Native American languages disappeared and with them their culture.
.	Translate the text A tour under Paris The great avenues are quiet, the shops are closed. There’s the smell of fresh bread from a bakery somewhere. It would be hard to say which time of the day in Paris I prefer but this is probably it. Soon the streets will be full of people and traffic. As with most other cities, you see the real Paris when the city wakes up. There is, however, another part of Paris which is silent and free from people 24 hours a day. Under the city are hundreds of kilometres of tunnels. There are sewers and old subways but there are also spaces of all kinds: canals and catacombs, wine cellars which have been made into nightclubs and galleries. During the 19th century, the Parisians needed more stone for buildings above the ground so they dug tunnels beneath the city. After that, many farmers grew mushrooms in them. During World War II, the French Resistance fighters also used them. Since the 1970s, many groups of young people spend days and nights below the city in these tunnels. It’s a place for parties, theatre performances, art galleries – anything goes here!
.	Translate the text Moments in space history On October 4, 1957, the Soviet Union sent Sputnik 1 into space and a new age in history began – The Space Age. The Soviets launched more Sputnik satellites in the fifties and by 1961 they had put the first man into space. Eight years later, an American finally walked on the moon and during the early seventies the US led the Soviet Union in the space race. However, space travel was expensive and they needed to co-operate more. As a result, in 1975 astronauts from both countries flew two spacecraft and met in space. Afterwards, one astronaut said that the mission showed that the Soviet Union and America could work together.
.	Translate the text The life of Jane Goodall On the morning of July 14, 1960, Jane Goodall arrived on the east shore of Lake Tanganyika and the Gombe National Park. She had brought a tent, a cup without a handle, a pair of binoculars and her mother. A group of local men met the strange pair of women and helped carry their camping gear. Then, around 5 p.m., somebody reported that they had seen a chimpanzee. Straight away, Jane set off into the forest to find her first chimpanzee.
.	Translate the text The life of Jane Goodall (2) As a young woman, Jane Goodall had no scientific qualifications but this didn’t stop her from following her childhood dream of studying chimpanzees in Africa. She had set out to study the animals and find out how they really lived. After many months of difficult work she made three important discoveries: chimpanzees ate meat, they used tools to get food and they also made tools. Every evening, Jane wrote her findings in a diary and she began to publish articles in journals such as National Geographic magazine. After a while, scientists and academicsstarted reading her studies and Jane was offered a place at a university. After more years of research she became Doctor Jane Goodall in 1966. Her work was also making her famous. There was a film documentary Miss Goodall and the Wild Chimpanzees(1963) and then the first of many books called My Friends the Wild Chimpanzees (1969).
.	Translate the text The power of nature It’s early evening and Rex Geyer and his family are eating dinner. On the TV, the weather man is telling everyone to look out for tornadoes. If a tornado hit Rex’s house, it would destroy it. Suddenly, Rex’s brother rushes through the front door. ‘Tornado! We have to go now!’ he shouts. The whole family run to the car. As they drive away to safety, two cars go past in the opposite direction – straight towards the tornado. If anyone else drove in that direction, they’d be mad. But the people in the cars are Tim Samaras and Pat Porter who follow and study tornadoes. This year they are trying to put a ‘probe’ into the middle of a tornado. So far they haven’t been successful. If the tornado passed over the probe, it would record a lot of useful scientific data so they are keen to try.
