Environmental news
A Last Saturday a group of teenagers were seen doing their part to save the environment. Early in the morning, twenty students from St Mark’s Secondary School in Granton set off by bus and headed for Brampton Forest — the forest that was partly destroyed in last year’s dreadful fire. Armed with small shovels and buckets of pine saplings, these teens showed how much they care about the future of their planet. At final count, they managed to plant over 2,000 trees. We should all be proud of these hardworking young people.
B The next time you go to your local supermarket take a minute to look and see if there is something different about it. The local council, supported by a government grant, has installed ten recycling machines in supermarkets in the area. The machines only work with returnable bottles, and when one is deposited in the machine the depositor receives ten pence for their effort. It is hoped that where concern for the environment has not persuaded people to recycle, money might.
C 22-year-old Rowan Peters was sentenced to six months in prison yesterday at Carlisle Crown Court. Found guilty of an act of arson that resulted in the destruction of over 1,000 hectares of valuable woodland, Peters continued to proclaim his innocence. To most people gathered outside the court, Peters’ sentence was far too light and really counted as no more than a slap on the wrist for such an irresponsible and dangerous ad.
D Clydesdale Mews in the west of the city is sparkling this morning after a massive weekend clean-up by locals. Sick and tired of the rubbish littering their streets and parks, the people of the area, many of whom have lived there their whole lives, decided to get together to do something about it once and for all. Old and young alike turned out to participate in the clean-up. When asked about it, Mr Kline, an elderly resident, said, “Now, that’s the stuff. We have always loved the area, and after this weekend we have even more reason to do so. Everywhere is as neat as a pin, just like in the old days!»
E Scientists have announced that a type of West African monkey, Miss Waldron’s red colobus, has probably become extinct. This large monkey is the first primate to vanish since the 19th century. Despite a series of searches conducted by anthropologists over a six-year period, no evidence of even one remaining monkey was found. Wildlife experts were unsurprised, as the last confirmed sighting of a Miss Waldron’s red colobus was over 20 years ago and it was listed as endangered back in 1988.
F A hurricane ripped through areas of Florida yesterday, causing millions of dollars’ worth of damage. Homeowners complained to the media that the local meteorological office and weather stations had given them little time to prepare for the hurricane. An expert on climate change, Stan Wren, issued a harsh warning. Yesterday’s hurricane was not simply a force of nature, but the product of man’s continuing disrespect for the environment and we should expect more surprises in the future.
G Concerned conservationists rushed to the mouth of St Stephen’s River after receiving reports that a young whale had beached itself. The desperate situation took a turn for the better when the water level began to rise and the whale freed itself, with the help of onlookers, and escaped to deeper water. Once its sense of direction had returned, it headed back out to sea. It seems that sometimes sonar signals from boats can confuse whales, and they become separated from their pod, or family group.

7. Which texts describe people helping the environment?

A, B, D and G.

The best idea: I think A is the best idea because planting trees helps the environment for many years and improves the future of the planet.

Translation of texts A and G into Russian:

A В прошлую субботу группа подростков была замечена за тем, что они вносили свой вклад в спасение окружающей среды. Рано утром двадцать учеников средней школы Сент-Марк в Грантоне отправились на автобусе в лес Брамптон — лес, который был частично уничтожен в прошлом году страшным пожаром. Вооружившись маленькими лопатами и ведёрками с саженцами сосны, эти подростки показали, как сильно они заботятся о будущем своей планеты. В итоге им удалось посадить более 2000 деревьев. Мы все должны гордиться этими трудолюбивыми молодыми людьми.

G Обеспокоенные защитники природы поспешили к устью реки Сент-Стивен после сообщений о том, что молодой кит выбросился на берег. Отчаянная ситуация изменилась к лучшему, когда уровень воды начал подниматься, и кит освободился с помощью очевидцев и уплыл в более глубокие воды. Когда к нему вернулось чувство направления, он поплыл обратно в море. Похоже, что иногда сигналы сонара от лодок могут сбивать китов с толку, и они оказываются отделёнными от своей стаи, или семейной группы.

8. Speaking sample:

Last Saturday our school went to Brampton Forest to plant trees. We worked in small groups and planted young pine trees with shovels and buckets. I did it because I wanted to help the environment and restore the forest after the fire. I felt tired, but very proud and happy. It was a useful and memorable day.

9. Email to a pen-friend:

Dear Tom,

Last Saturday I took part in a school trip to Brampton Forest. We went there by bus and planted more than 2,000 young trees. I helped dig holes and put the saplings into the ground.

We did it because the forest had been badly damaged by a fire last year, and we wanted to help nature recover. I felt very tired after the work, but also proud and happy because we did something important.

It was a great experience, and I would like to do something like this again.

Best wishes,
Alex
