Save our planet !
In April, it's Earth's day! It's a special day when people can do things to protect our
planet...For example, my Geography teacher wants my class to plant trees on Earth Day…
Will you do something special for Earth Day ? Or do you make a special effort to help
our planet every day ? What do you do ? Greg, age 13, Australia.
1) Read Greg's letter and say what is it about :
.................................................................................................................................................................. .
2) Let's discover what should we do to save our planet:
I want to do something
Hi, Greg! For Earth Day, I don't usually do anything because I didn't know when it was!
But, this year I want to do something with my friends, because I know that ecological
problems are important and it's an occasion to protect our planet! I think that we'll try
to save energy and water. Maybe, we must also recycle paper and bottles! Now, I'll try
to do that everyday ! Thanks !
Andreas, 14, Greece.
Think of the future generations
Hi, Greg! This year, I will try to do a lot of things like going to school on my bicycle or
not switching the lights on for a long time. I think it's very important to be careful
about pollution. And I think everyone can do something- small things like not leaving the
lights on if you aren't in a room, not leaving the water running when you brush your
teeth or not always taking the car when you want to go somewhere. It's important to
think of the future generations. But you shouldn't just do something on Earth Day, you
should be careful every day of your life!
Roberto, 13, Italy.
A better world !
Hi everybody ! I think we should all make an effort every day ! We must not just make
an effort one day of the year! I try to throw away my rubbish in a dustbin and I walk
short distances. I think it's by the little things like that that we make a better world.
Rita, 13, England.
Clean the city

Hi everyone! For Earth Day, I asked my school to pick up rubbish in the playground and
they agreed! We'll also do advertising to help people clean their city ! I hope it will
change a little bit.
Pauline, 13, France.

III POST READING: write a small article in your school magazine to tell your mates
about the benefits of keeping pets.
My dog was almost too smart !

1- I am Frank Jones and I am 76 years old. I live in a small village in the mountains of
Scotland, or the Highlands as the Scots love to call them. I love pets, particularly dogs.
Now, I have Goldie. She is a very smart dog. But, on one occasion, she was almost too
smart.
2- I like going out for a walk in the nearby woods. One day, as I was walking I felt sick
and could not walk anymore. I stopped and sat under a tree. Several hours passed
before my neighbour, Sam, came and saved me. Then my wife, Florence, did not want me
to take walksin the woods. She was afraid I might die.
3- So I decided to teach Goldie a trick- to run home if I gave her my hat and said 'Go
home'. Then, my wife would understand that I was in trouble. Within a week, Goldie
learned the procedure.
4- A few months later, I went for a walk in the woods with Goldie. We walked for thirty
minutes. Goldie was carrying my hat as usual. She loved to do it. Then, without thinking,
I said aloud 'I'm getting cold. I must go home.' Goldie heard 'Go home' and ran very
quickly to the house. I could not stop her.
5- I hurried back because I knew that Florence would be worried. I could not run very
quickly and had a hard time getting to the house. I arrived as Florence appeared at the
front door on her way to look for me.
