The other day I stopped in front the door of a very tall building, which
looked very old. I found a phone? I switched it on. Of course it wasn’t mine.
Suddenly, nicely dressed people started to arrive and enter the building.
Everyone got really excited when a car arrived and a smartly dressed man got
out. The man went into the building and stood and waited.
After about half an hour a white car arrived. It was full of flowers and
bows. A woman in a very big white dress got out. (It was so big that she
needed the help of two children to walk.) She also carried a bunch of flowers
and her face was covered with a white veil. When she arrived everyone got
very excited and they started to play music inside the building.
The woman went into the building holding the arm of a man who was in
the car with her, (in this time I picked my phone and I started recording a
video). After a while the woman came out again, but this time she was holding
the arm of the other man. They were very happy and when they left the
building everyone threw rice at them. I I think it was uncooked.

Reassessing the Impacts of Brain Drain on Developing Countries
Brain drain, which is the action of having highly skilled and educated people leaving their country to work
abroad, has become one of the developing countries concern. Brain drain is also referred to as human capital flight.
More and more third world science and technology educated people are heading for more prosperous countries
seeking higher wages and better working conditions. This has of course serious consequences on the sending
countries.
While many people believe that immigration is a personal choice that must be understood and respected,
others look at the phenomenon from a different perspective. What makes those educated people leave their
countries should be seriously considered and a distinction between push and pull factors must be made. The push
factors include low wages and lack of satisfactory working and living conditions. Social unrest, political conflicts
and wars may also be determining causes. The pull factors, however, include intellectual freedom and substantial
funds for research.
Brain drain has negative impact on the sending countries economic prospects and competitiveness. It
reduces the number of dynamic and creative people who can contribute to the development of their country.
Likewise, with more entrepreneurs taking their investments abroad, developing countries are missing an
opportunity of wealth creation. This has also negative consequences on tax revenue and employment.
Most of the measures taken so far have not had any success in alleviating the effects of brain drain. A more
global view must take into consideration the provision of adequate working and living conditions in the sending
countries. Another option should involve encouraging the expatriates to contribute their skill to the development of
their countries without necessarily physically relocating.
Comprehension
A. Answer the following questions:
1. Another term for brain drain is:
a) Capital flight b) Human capital flight.
2. To address the problem of brain drain we should understand:
a) The causes. b) The effects.
3. Brain drain has terrible consequences on the economic development of :
a) Sending countries. b) Receiving countries
4. To limit the negative impact of brain drain, expatriates should
a) Come back to their home countries for good. b) Try to help their home countries while staying there.
B. Find in the text words which mean almost the same as :

Children for whom school has no point
Many children do not go to school either because their parents want them at home as carers for
siblings, or simply because their parents cannot be bothered to send them. Thousands more are not
registered at any school at all, because of their families' unstable lives.
Underlying this dreadful situation there are two central truths. First of all, the problem of children
not going to school often has more to do with their parents than with the children themselves. Secondly,
once children go to school, we need to make sure that the experience is a positive one so that they want to
keep on going.
In Britain, the Ministry of Education has introduced a complex package of sticks and carrots to
persuade schools to bring truants' and excluded children back into the classroom. It is paying grants so
that a thousand schools can set up special units to help these children. Schools receive the grant if they
bring a target number of children back to school; if they do not meet the target, the grant is withdrawn.
Parents are the subject of this campaign, too: the Home Office has introduced fines for parents who fail
to send their children to school, and has given the police power to pick up truants on the streets.
'truant = a child who does not go to school when he or she should.
Grants = amount of money that the government gives you for a specific purpose

Relative Clauses
There are two kinds of relative clauses: defining relative clauses (Restrictive Relative Clauses) and non-
defining relative clauses (Non- Restrictive Relative Clauses)
Defining Relative Clauses
A Defining Relative Clause gives necessary information and is essential to the meaning of the
main sentence. The clause is not put in commas.
E.g.: He is the actor who was killed in a car crash.
I read the article about Barcelona which was published in The El Mundo Deportivo.
The relative pronoun can be omitted when it is the object of the relative clause.
E.g. The man (whom) you spoke to is my boss.
This is the factory (which) he left last week.

Read the text about Bob Marley and answer the questions below.
One of the greatest stars in the world of music is Bob Marley. He was born in Kingston,
the capital of Jamaica, in 1945. His mother named him Robert Nesta Marley but he was always
known as Bob Marley.
The boy grew up with his mother in a very poor area of Kingston called Trenchtown,
where life was very hard. He began to sing and play the guitar, and when he was only nineteen he
made his first record. A year later he formed a trio with two friends, Peter Tosh and Bunny
Livingstone. They called themselves ‘The Wailers’. Their songs, composed by Bob Marley, and
sung and played by the three men, were about life in Trenchtown.
Bob Marley and the Wailers became very popular in Jamaica. His songs with their
political message and strong rhythm made him a national hero. And this new reggae music was
soon popular outside Jamaica too. In the 1970s, Bob Marley signed a music contract in Britain
and after that he became famous all over the world. Everyone knew about the singer, guitarist
and composer from Jamaica. Everyone recognized the Rasta man with his hair in dreadlocks.
Everyone danced to or sang his famous songs like ‘No Woman, No Cry’ and ‘I Shot the Sheriff’.
Sadly, in 1977 he contracted cancer in the foot. Four years later he died, not yet forty
years old. But his music lives on.
1. Are these statements true or false? Justify your answer:
a) Bob Marley is Central American. …………………
b) He was born in the 1950s. …………………
c) He didn’t live with his father. …………………
d) He created a new rhythm – the reggae. …………………

It’s unbelievable! Knowledge is spreading rapidly nowadays. Schools, universities are found all
over the world. Nations spend enormous sums on education. Yet, the educational level of students has
declined: young people are hardly ever able to read a daily newspaper or even write an understandable
letter. What’s happening in our schools? And who should be blamed?
Actually, the decline in the educational standards is due to the fact that parents no longer help in
their children’s education. They send them off to school beginning at age five or six, and then expect the
government to educate them. They do not take into account that education is a process that begins at
birth. Experts agree that the first few years set the foundation to future performance.
In his book, STRAIGHT TALK ABOUT AMERICAN EDUCATION, Theodore M. Black has
perceived the problem. He warns, “Parents, not schools or governments, are fundamentally responsible
for the education of their children.”
Parents should realize that schools are only one element in the education of their children. Infants
are taught, whether knowingly or not, by their parents from birth. They cannot just wash their hands of
responsibility for their children’s education.
Parents should contribute to the teaching of their offspring. They don’t need to be teachers to tutor
their children. What they need is the will, and some imagination, to prepare them to function intelligently
within society. Thus we will see that educational standards and students’ achievements would no longer
go downward.

Title: ..........................................................
The term 'virus is derived from the Latin word for poison or slime. It was originally applied to
the noxious stench emanating from swamps that was thought to cause a variety of diseases in the
centuries before microbes were discovered and specifically linked to illness. But it was not until
almost the end of the nineteenth century that a true virus was proven to be the cause of a disease.
The nature of viruses made them impossible to detect for many years even after bacteria had
been discovered and studied. Not only are viruses too small to be seen with a light microscope, they
also cannot be detected through their biological activity, except as it occurs in conjunction with
other organisms. In fact, viruses show no traces of biological activity by themselves. Unlike
bacteria, they are not living agents in the strictest sense Viruses are very simple pieces of organic
material composed only of nucleic acid, either DNA or RNA, enclosed in a coat of protein made up
of simple structural units.(Some viruses also contain carbohydrates and lipids.) They are parasites,
requiring human, animal, or plant cells to live. The virus replicates by attaching to a cell and
injecting its nucleic acid.' once inside the cell, the DNA or RNA that contains the virus' genetic
information takes over the cell's biological machinery, and the cell begins to manufacture viral
proteins rather than its own.
ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:
1. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
(A) New Developments in Viral Research (B) Exploring the Causes of Disease
(C) DNA: Nature’s Building Block (D) Understanding Viruses
2. Before microbes were discovered It was believed that some diseases were caused
by
(A) germ-carrying insects (B) certain strains of
bacteria
(C) foul odours released from swamps (D) slimy creatures living near swamps
3. The word "proven" in line 4 is closest meaning to which of the following.

4. The word nature" in line 6 is closest in meaning to which of the following?
(A) Self-sufficiency (B) Shapes (C) Characteristics (D) Speed
5. The author implies that bacteria were investigated earlier than viruses because
(A) bacteria are easier to detect (B) bacteria are harder to eradicate
(C) viruses are extremely poisonous (D) viruses are found only in hot climates

kids. Also parents with busy life styles stay up late and their kids do the same.
Kids with little sleep have hard time sleeping at night and this will affect their daily
routine and make them less active and productive trough the day in school.
Most parents are not aware of what goes on when their kids go to sleep and how the brain
works when we are asleep.
Many people think that the brain shuts down when we go to sleep but it is the
opposite. Experts say that the brain is very active when we are asleep and could be even
more active than when we are awake.
Experts recommended at least 6 hours of sleep for adults and 9 hours of sleep for
young children. They say that sleep is an essential not a comfort and it can increase your
life expectancy.

Sample paragraphs:
Parts of paragraphs: A paragraph generally has three main parts: a topic
sentence, supporting sentences/details and a concluding sentence.
The Topic sentence :
It is often the first sentence in a paragraph. It presents the main idea of the paragraph.
Supporting Sentences :
They develop the topic sentence. That is, they explain the main idea by giving reasons,
arguments, specific details, etc.
The Concluding Sentence:
It is the last sentence in a paragraph .It signals the end of the paragraph and restates the
main points/idea.
Study the following paragraphs:
There is no doubt that the Internet is one of the greatest inventions in our current life,
it has a lot of advantages. For a start, It is fast and easy way to get a lot of valuable
information. Moreover, people can have access to the latest news, weather, traffic,
cinema, sports…. etc. Also; another important benefit is that the Internet is a great means
of communication; People have the opportunity to communicate with the people from
other countries. To sum up, I think that the Internet makes our world smaller and
friendlier.
Paragraph 2 : The causes of immigration

addiction, political conflicts….Etc. In addition, some people immigrate to continue
higher studies or simply to look for better work conditions. To conclude, immigration is
the result of a number of reasons.
