Uiuru-Kata Tjuta National Park. The park covers 1,325

square kilometres and contains Uluru, a 348 metre-high
rock. Uluru is very important to the native people of the
area, the Anangu. lt is part of their cultural history and
traditional beliefs. The Anangu people believe they
mustn't climb Uluru, but they don't stop visitors from
going up. However, they prefer them to walk around the
bottom of the rock. ln the park there is a cultural centre
with information and activities for visitors. Here visitors
can find guides who can take them around Uluru and tell
them about the history of ihe rock. Walks around Uluru
take about
hours. Visitors must have water with them
and should drink one litre of water for every hour they
walk. They also shouldn't walk during the hottest time of
the day. There are walking paths in the park and it's a
good idea for them to stay on the paths so s not to get

serious cooking skills in a fun atmosphere. Mr Dietrich, who also

owns a local steakhouse, operates The Kids Culinary Summer
Camp of Vermont from his rural farmhouse. Each summer, 80

kids arrive at the camp to learn not only how to cook, but also
how to plan a menu. What's more, they visit ice cream and
chocolate factories and learn how to make sweet treats.
Children can choose to stay one week or two weeks at the
camp. There are two pads to the camp's programme. The first
part is the cooking programme, where kids learn and practise
new cooking skills each day. The second part is the baking and
pastry programme, where the focus is on desserts.
A typical day at camp begins at 6:30 am when campers do
morning chores that include working in the greenhouse and
feeding the farm animals. Then, the kids play sport for an hour
before they head into the kitchen. After cooking all morning,

While most teenagers were trying to pass

ln

1962, Armstrong entered the astronaut

driving test and receive their driving licence,

Neil Armstrong earned his pilot's licence at
sixteen. Armstrong took an interest in aviation

programme at NASA. He was the pilot on his

first mission into space aboard the Gemini Vlll

from a young age and worked at the local

programme, NASA chose Armstrong to lead its

first manned mission to the moon on Apollo 11.

in 1966. As part of the Apollo space

airport in his hometown of Wapakoneta, 0hio.

Armstrong decided to study Aeronautical

Engineering at university. He stopped his

Et]

studies because of the Korean War in 1950 and

became
navy pilot at the age
20.
Armstrong flew 78 combat flights during the
war and received three medals.

ol

Shortly after completing his degree, Armstrong

government agency which later
became the National Aeronautic and Space

joined

Administration (NASA). At NASA he worked as

a test pilot and engineer, He tested over 50
types of aircraft and reached top speeds of
6,600 kmph.

m
m

On 20th July, 1969, Apollo 11 tanded on the

surface of the moon. Armstrong made his way
down the ladder of the spacecraft. When his
foot touched the surJace, he spoke the now
famous words: "That's one small step for (a)
man, one giant leap for mankind," Minutes
later his co-pilot joined him and they planted
the American flag on the moon's surface.
Four days later, Apollo 11 returned to Earth,
The craft came down in the Pacific Ocean,
Armstrong received the Presidential Medal of
Freedom, a very prestigious award,
Armstrong never returned to space. He worked
for a short while at NASA and then he went on

to teach Aerospace Engineering. He also

became an advisor to the government on
various space issues.

EI]

Although today Armstrong tries to live a quiet

and private life, he is in high demand, He is

enjoy diving and snorkelling in the

crystal blue waters of Coron and even
see lots of underwater treasures. Local
fishermen will welcome you and also act as
guides to the various underwater dive sites. The
main attractions in the waters near Coron are the 12 Japanese war

and supply ships that sunk here in World War ll. The US Navy
bombed the ships and they now lay untouched for more than 60
years at the bottom of the sea at depths of 10 to 43 metres. Most of
these ships are still intact so divers can explore these wrecks with 2
boat dives per day, Divers can even swim through some of the rooms
of the ships and see fantastic coral reefs and sea creatures on and
around the ships,

Another underwater adventure awaits you at the north end of the

island in Barracuda Lake. Legend has it that the lake's name comes
from a large barracuda fish living in the lake, There is a 20-minute climb
up a difficult hiking trail over rocky limestone to get to the lake; but once

you are there the spectacular view is worth it, This hot thermal lake is
actually in a volcano crater which explains the rapid changes in the
water temperature of the lake, lt is uncomforlably hot on the way down,
at about 12 to 13 metres deep, the temperature suddenly changes from
27"C lo 39" C and then on the way back up the top layer feels freezing!

There isn't a lot to see at the bottom of the lake as the water is dark and
unclear, As you go up, though, keep your eyes open for prawns' lf you

Time Clauses

We use will:

conjunctions when, as, while, before, the moment that, after,

till/until , by the time, whenever , as long os, os soon as.

to

make on-the-spot decisions.

When the time clause precedes

the main clause,

comma is used. lVien I get fiome, l'lJ rcll l'e

Time Clauses follow the rule of the sequence of tenses.
That is, when the verb of the main clause is in the present
or future form, the verb of the time clause is in a present
form and when the verb of the main clause is in a past
form, the verb of the time clause is in a past form.
He

use the present simple instead.

It was July and Rob and Ellie were

very excited. They had just finished their exams
and they were about to go on the holiday of a

lifetime. They had decided not to spend their holiday relaxing on a beach or lying

by a pool. This year they wanted a real adventure, so they planned to spend two
weeks travelling in Morocco. The highlight of the trip was going to be a two-day camel

ride in the Sahara Desert.

The friends began their trip in Ouarzazate, a beautiful city at the edge of the Sahara
Desert. First, the friends visited the city's famous market to pick up some traditional
headscarves to protect them from the hot sun. Then, it was time to meet the two local
guides and the six large camels, who would take them deep into the desert.
At first, the friends found riding the camels terrifying. They were so tall and they were
sure they would fall off. But, as they continued their journey, they began to get used to

the camel's strange rhythm and they could relax and enjoy the amazing desert
landscape.
After they had ridden for several hours, the sun began to set. The clouds turned bright

orange and red and it looked like the sky was on fire. The guides stopped and began
to put up their tents while Ellie and Rob stood looking at the sky in wonder. For dinner
later that evening, the guides prepared a traditional Moroccan Tajine. As Ellie and Rob
were having this delicious meal, they watched the dark sky fill with bright stars. "l've
never seen so many stars in my life," said Ellie, "lt's wonderful". Rob, on the other
hand, felt a little afraid. The desert was so still and so quiet.

The next day, they set off on their camels again. The heat of the desert made the
journey exhausting. ln the afternoon, they finally arrived in the small town

olf

azzarine.

Both Rob and Ellie were extremely happy to get off their camels and go tolheir hotel

for a cool shower. As they said goodbye to their guides, Ellie thought that the desert
experience had been exciting for one night, but she was happy to be at the hotel. lt
had certainly been an adventure!

TRUE

1 Rob and Ellie went to Morocco to relax.

2 Rob and Ellie bought souvenirs in Ouarzazate.
3 Rob and Ellie were frightened because the camels were so big.
4 Rob and Ellie were amazed by the evening sky.
5 Rob was frightened by strange sounds at night.

Are you interested in exploring nature? How does hiking through

giant glaciers, swimmlng in hot springs and going horse riding

sound? lf that sounds exciting, then come to lceland for your
next holiday and visit the Vatnajkull National Park.

The easiest way to see the glaciers of Vatnajkull is to take

a tour with an expert guide who will teach you all about the

ice formations. One of the most popular tours is visiting the

Falljkull glacier. Before the tour starts, visitors learn how to

use special equipment, such as an ice axe. Then, the hike

across the ice begins. Visitors find the shapes of the glacial
ice amazing. Often, these natural forms look like wonderful
glass sculptures. From the peak of the glacier the view of the

surrounding arca

is spectacular.

Some

of the more

adventurous visitors can also try ice climbing on the glacier.

Another popular attraction is the park's many hot springs. One

of the most impressive places to visit is Viti, a lake inside a

volcanic crater. lt's perfect for swimming because it has an

average temperature of 30"C, But in spring the temperature
drops when the ice around the crater melts into the lake.
There are also plenty of activities for animal lovers. The North
East of the park is home to many beautiful reindeer. One of the
best ways to see them is by taking a horse ride across the park.
The Jkulsrln Lagoon is also a great place to see wildlife.
Visitors can take a boat ride across the lagoon's calm blue
waters and watch arctic birds flying overhead and playful seals
swimming after fish, The lagoon is one of the most famous
places in lceland, so it's a great place to snap some photos to
show your friends back home.
lf you come to the park in winter, there's one last attraction you
can't miss * the Northern Lights. The best way to see them
is on an evening snowmobile trip across a glacier. You can
watch the colourful lights dance across the dark sky! lt's
the greatest natural show on Earth!
So, next time you are planning a holiday, why not visit
the natural wonders of Vatnajkull? lt's an
experience you won't forget.

why? Because this is The world Buskers Festival.

A busker is anyone who performs an act for free in the street. I 2T_-] gut
people only give what they think the act was worth. And buskers don't expect
more than a few coins from each person. The World Buskers Festival is a great

opportunity to see some of the world's best street performers. Visitors can watch
: magic acts in the streets and in the main square they can laugh at top comedy acts. ln
:,the park, they can see acrobats performing incredible feats high up in the trees! FTI
, At night, performances continue to take place in the city's art galleries and theatres.
When the festival began in 1994, only a few buskers came to the city, and
crowds were small. FTI For the most popular acts, visitors need to arrive
; early to get a good view. One act that always draws a big crowd is
New Zealand's Fuse Circus, a team of some of the country's best
circus performers. Together, they put on an incredible acrobatic
,, show! Another top act is a young comedian called Sam Wills.
