Reasons for Caribbean integration

Reasons for Caribbean integration

• examine reasons for the existence of the Caribbean as a region

• suggest ways of strengthening Caribbean integration.

Sometimes countries from an area join together to cooperate as a group. This is known as regional integration

Each territory in the Caribbean is very small, with limited resources and a tiny population in comparison to its more powerful neighbours in North and South America. There are several reasons that the territories of this region have agreed to cooperate as a unified region:

• geography of the region

• common history

• integration movements including sporting and economic agreements.

Geography of the region

Compared with their larger neighbours, the territories of the Caribbean need to join together in order to represent a larger collection of people. They share the same geographic location and many of the same geographical features:

Common history and culture

10.5

For example, the most popular sport in the West Indies is cricket. The British originally brought the game to the West Indies under colonial rule. The earliest cricket matches took place in the early 1800s, among officers of the British military Cricket became a symbol of the Caribbean people’s struggle to be free of colonisation. In the early days cricket clubs were white-only, and slaves were not allowed to take part. Black players were forced to found their own clubs. This changed as inter-island competitions became more frequently organised. The competitions brought together people of all backgrounds from each island as they shared the desire to see their home island win.

• island geography – large areas of coastline as a result of being surrounded on all sides by the sea

• tropical rainforests – most of the territories have tropical climates with tropical rainforest vegetation and diverse species of plants and animals

• hazards such as storms, hurricanes and earthquakes.

The many small islands each face the challenge of limited resources, as well as vulnerability to natural disasters. By working together as a region, the territories of the Caribbean are better able to manage the challenges of their geographical resources.

Student’s book 3 978-0-00-825648-7 £15.99

As Caribbean society became more democratic and integrated, the West Indian cricket team became a reflection of that integration. The West Indies produces many highly talented cricket players, which helps improve national pride.

Exercise

3. The Caribbean region is situated near the Tropic of Cancer. Suggest four ways that this affects the geography of the region.

4. Why do you think cricket is so popular in the Caribbean?

5. At first, cricket was a game for the colonial ‘masters’ and the slaves were not allowed to play. What changed this?

6. Explain what you understand by regional integration in sport.

The Caribbean Region

Caribbean area and territories

Territories of the Caribbean

We are learning to:

• name and locate Caribbean territories, their capitals, seas and oceans on maps of the Caribbean

• compare sizes of Caribbean territories.

The Caribbean is made up of many islands, islets, reefs and cays, as well as some of the mainland countries that border on the Caribbean Sea. In the table on the next page, you can see the land areas and population sizes of the countries that make up the Caribbean territories. As you can see, there are larger and smaller territories that make up the Caribbean region. On the next two pages we will look at reasons that we group the territories together as a region. The countries of the Caribbean Community are not the only countries of the Caribbean region. Geographers divide the islands of the Caribbean Sea into two clusters: the Greater and Lesser Antilles.

The Antilles s

The Greater Antilles is made up of five islands – Cuba, the Cayman Islands, Hispaniola (Dominican Republic and Haiti), Puerto Rico and Jamaica. The Greater Antilles makes up more than 90% of the land area of the West Indies. These islands are also home to more than 90% of the population of the West Indies.

The Lesser Antilles is made up of eight independent countries – Antigua and Barbuda; Barbados; Dominica; Grenada; Saint Kitts and Nevis; Saint Lucia; Saint Vincent and the Grenadines; Trinidad and Tobago – as well as 16 other non-sovereign states and territories. The islands of the Lesser Antilles are divided into:

• Windward Islands in the south

Reasons for boundaries

Boundaries may be set up for different reasons. As you have learned, sometimes a natural feature such as a coastline or river suggests where a boundary lies. However, there are many other reasons boundaries may lie in a particular place. You will look at some of these reasons on this page.

Treaties

A treaty is an agreement between two or more regions or countries. There can be treaties which agree land borders or maritime agreements, which establish a specific ocean or sea boundary between two countries (see 9.7).

Demarcating boundaries

Sometimes a government will demarcate a particular boundary. Part of demarcating a boundary is signage, which shows where a boundary begins. This may be changed if the government changes. For example, when the British took over rule of Trinidad in 1797, they tried to change the structure of the Spanish Cabildo to reflect the British style of local government by setting up a town council. Eventually, by 1927, the Division of Trinidad Act divided the island into eight counties. Each county was sub-divided into wards for election purposes.

Examine the county and regional corporation lines on the maps. Compare these to a physical map of Trinidad and Tobago. Talk about the reasons for these boundaries.

WHO’S WHO? A GUIDE TO THE MAIN CHARACTERS IN TWELFTH NIGHT WHO’S WHO? A GUIDE TO THE MAIN CHARACTERS IN TWELFTH NIGHT

Orsino is the Duke of Illyria, who has fallen in love with Countess Olivia. When she rejects him, he is sorrowful and wallows in his rejection. He forms a strong friendship with the character he knows as Cesario, and sends him to win Olivia for him.

Viola is shipwrecked on the coast of Illyria and decides to dress as a young man in order to serve in the court of Duke Orsino. There, she is known as Cesario and is employed as Orsino’s messenger to Olivia. However, she falls in love with Orsino herself.

Sebastian is Viola’s twin brother, shipwrecked in the same storm, but separated from her. He is helped by a sailor, Antonio. He makes his way into Illyria where he is mistaken for Cesario, his twin sister’s male personality. Olivia, initially believing that he is Cesario, marries him.

Olivia is a countess, a woman of high society, who is in grieving for her dead brother and has sworn never to marry. She therefore refuses to see Orsino, but when his messenger Cesario arrives, she falls in love with him, not realising that Cesario is in fact a woman in disguise.

Malvolio is Olivia’s chief servant; he is pompous and self-important, which leads to conflict with other members of Olivia’s household. He is also secretly in love with Olivia himself, which makes him the object of other characters’ jokes and mockery.

TWELFTH NIGHT Feste is a clown, or jester, who entertains at both Orsino’s court and Olivia’s household. He is always keen to earn money by his singing and jokes, but often also seems to know more about what is going on than he admits. He takes a central role in the mocking of Malvolio. Sir Toby Belch, Olivia’s uncle, enjoys drinking alcohol and making jokes. While he is the life and soul of the party, he also takes advantage of Sir Andrew Aguecheek and behaves cruelly towards Malvolio. He is happy to make other people uncomfortable for his own amusement. Sir Andrew Aguecheek has fallen in love with Olivia and hopes to marry her. He is, however, a bumbling fool who has no chance of success. His foolishness provides a great deal of humour, but at the end he gains sympathy because he is so badly treated by Sir Toby. Maria is one of Olivia’s servants, who is quick- witted and mischievous. She invents the plan to deceive Malvolio, and at the end of the play we hear she has married Sir Toby. Fabian is another servant in Olivia’s household, who takes part in the jokes and tricks created by Sir Tony and Maria. He admits the truth of what has been happening to Olivia at the end of the play.

Antonio is a faithful sailor, who helps Sebastian in Illyria. This causes problems, as he is a wanted man in Illyria because of his role in sea battles against Orsino’s navy, but he takes the risk because of his devotion to Sebastian.

Activity 32 From the limited details Shakespeare provides, what role do you think Antonio played in the ‘sea-fight’ (line 26)? Does it make a difference to the way you judge his character?

Activity 5 Now that you know a little about each character, what else would you like to find out about them? For each character, write down one or two questions that you plan to find answers to as you gain more understanding of Twelfth Night

The characters Antonio, despite the colourful past he reveals to Sebastian, again demonstrates that he is a thoughtful and generous friend, putting himself in danger for Sebastian as well as providing for him.

Sebastian not only accepts the renewal of Antonio’s company, but also recognises the spirit of generosity that lies behind it and is delighted to see him again. He takes Antonio’s advice and accepts his loan with good grace.

TWELFTH NIGHT

Act 3 Scene 4

Lines 1–15 Olivia is expecting Cesario, but is told that Malvolio has gone mad.

Lines 15–80 Malvolio enters in his new costume, following the instructions of Maria’s letter, which leads Olivia to agree that he is not in his right mind. Malvolio convinces himself that Olivia’s reaction shows that he has interpreted the letter correctly. Lines 80–137 Sir Toby, Fabian and Maria enter and provoke Malvolio further.

Lines 137–92 Sir Andrew enters with his challenge to Cesario, which is ludicrously inappropriate. Sir Toby decides he will deliver the challenge orally to make it more convincing.

Lines 193–209 Cesario continues to plead Orsino’s case to Olivia, who continues to express her devotion to Cesario.

Dramatic techniques

In a play that depends so much on disguise, this is a scene where the lack of disguise is important. Antonio seems honest, and is honest. More than that, he knows he might be recognised in Illyria from his role in the sea battle – ‘Only myself stood out’ he tells Sebastian (line 35). Shakespeare uses Antonio as a point of contrast with the various characters in the play who disguise themselves, either through costume or behaviour.

The character of Antonio is also useful in setting up another part of Shakespeare’s complex plotting. That purse of money will become important in later scenes.

Lines 210–99 Sir Toby and Fabian engineer a duel between Cesario and Sir Andrew. Both are terrified and reluctant, but agree to cross swords for form’s sake.

Lines 300–60 Antonio, mistaking Cesario for Sebastian and thinking the duel is serious, intervenes on his behalf. The commotion attracts attention and Antonio is recognised and arrested. He asks for the return of his money from Cesario, who of course does not have it.

Lines 361–72 Viola recalls that Antonio mentioned Sebastian and realises that, as she has been mistaken for him, he must be alive.

Lines 373–82 Sir Toby and Fabian have noticed what they understand as Cesario’s dishonesty towards Antonio, and urge Sir Andrew to attack him again.

As in their first scene, Antonio uses the language of love and service to Sebastian that relates to male friendship bonds. He has followed him because of his ‘desire’ (line 4) and, as well as being motivated by ‘love’ (lines 6, 11), he has been worried about how Sebastian will cope in a place where he is ‘Unguided and unfriended’ (line 10).

Language

Activity 34 You will see there are nine distinct stages to the action in this scene. In groups, create tableaux to represent these sections of the scene, conveying characters, action and mood. Each character can have one line to describe their feelings.

Activity 33

Look at ways in which Antonio expresses his devotion to Sebastian and compare his language with that used by Orsino about Olivia, Olivia about Cesario, and Viola about Orsino. What similarities do you find?

• Accompanying workbooks for each level provide opportunities for written activities and help students consolidate learning

• Updated editions now include projects and ideas for STEM (science, technology engineering and mathematics)

Unicellular organisms

Multicellular and unicellular organisms

We are learning how to:

• recognise the relationships between specialised cells, tissues, organs and organ systems

• identify unicellular organisms.

Key terms

Yeast reproduce by a process called budding. New cells grow from existing cells. If you look carefully at Fig 5.5 you will see that some of the yeast cells appear to be growing tiny buds. Each new small cell grows and then separates from its parent cell.

Observing yeast cells

Here is what you need:

5.2

Living organisms like human beings are described as multicellular because they consist of many millions of cells. Some very simple organisms consist of only one cell and are called unicellular. A unicellular organism carries out all of the activities of a living thing.

You have already seen one unicellular organism, Euglena, on page 47. We are going to look at some more examples.

Amoeba

An amoeba is a microscopic unicellular organism that lives in ponds and streams.

It has all of the characteristics of a living organism (see Section 3.1). An amoeba can:

• carry out respiration to obtain energy

• absorb nutrients through its cell membrane

• excrete waste products through its cell membrane

• grow bigger

• reproduce by dividing into two new organisms

• move by allowing its cytoplasm to flow

• respond to stimuli, such as chemicals dissolved in water.

Paramecium

A Paramecium is another microscopic unicellular organism that lives in water.

It also exhibits all of the seven characteristics of a living organism. It is able to move more quickly than an amoeba because it is covered in tiny hair-like cilia that can beat together and propel it through the water.

Yeast

Yeast is a unicellular fungus. It has been used by people since ancient times to make bread and also to make alcoholic drinks by a process called fermentation.

multicellular describes an organism that consists of many cells unicellular describes an organism that consists of a single cell

• microscope

• microscope slide

• cover slip

• tissue paper

Here is what you should do:

• pipette

• bottle of solution containing yeast cells.

1. Shake the solution of yeast cells and remove a small amount in a pipette.

2. Place two drops of the yeast solution onto a microscope slide.

3. Carefully lower a cover slip onto the specimen.

4. Place a tissue next to the cover slip and gently draw off the excess water.

5. Place the slide on the stage of the microscope.

Fun fact

At one time, the living world was classified by scientists into two kingdoms: plants and animals. Unicellular organisms were classified as either animals or plants, depending on which they most closely resembled. The amoeba was considered to be an animal while Euglena was considered to be a plant.

6. Observe the yeast cells using a low magnification. Look for yeast cells that appear to be budding, then examine these cells using a higher magnification.

Eventually, scientists realised that unicellular organisms did not really fit either of these kingdoms. The classification of the living world was revised to give the five kingdoms we have today. Unicellular organisms now have their own kingdom, called Protista.

7. Draw some budding yeast cells.

6 The skeletal system

Humans need to be able to move their entire bodies from place to place as well as parts of their bodies. They also need to have a means of supporting and protecting the soft tissues and organs of their bodies. These functions are all carried out by the skeletal system

The human skeleton

The human skeleton serves as a framework for the body and it can be divided into the axial skeleton and the appendicular skeleton. The skeleton of an adult is made of 206 bones which are held together at joints by ligaments

The axial skeleton

The axial skeleton consists of the skull vertebral column ribs and sternum

• The skull is made up of the cranium and upper jaw which are fused, and the lower jaw which articulates with the upper jaw. The skull encloses the brain and sense organs of the head.

• The vertebral column is composed of 33 bones known as vertebrae which have intervertebral discs of cartilage between them. The spinal cord runs through a hole in the centre of each vertebra. The column supports the body, provides points of attachment for the girdles and many muscles, and protects the spinal cord running through it. It also allows some movement.

Also available

The appendicular skeleton

The appendicular skeleton is composed of the pectoralgirdle, the pelvic girdle the arms (forelimbs) andthe legs (hindlimbs). • The girdles connect the limbs to the axial skeleton and have broad flat surfaces for the attachment of muscles that move the limbs. The pelvic girdle is fused to the bottom of the vertebral column to provide support for the lower body and to transmit the thrust from the legs to the vertebral column which moves the

• ‘Recalling facts’ questions allow students to demonstrate what they have learned

• ‘Applying facts’ questions allow students to link what they have learned to real-life examples and contexts

• ‘Analysing data’ questions are invaluable for the SBA lab work in chemistry and essential for a top grade and allow students to demonstrate that they can think critically about data, analyze the information it gives, and reach sensible and logical conclusions based on that data

Brownian motion

Brownian motion is defined as the haphazard motion of microscopic solid particles suspended in a liquid or gaseous medium. The movement of the solid particles results from them being constantly bombarded by the particles in the medium in which it is suspended.

The phenomenon known as Brownian motion was noticed by a botanist, Robert Brown, in 1827, as he observed pollen grains suspended in water under a microscope. He noticed that the pollen grains were moving erratically. This erratic movement of the pollen grains can be explained by the water particles bumping into the solid pollen grains. As the water particles are so small, they were not visible under the microscope.

Erratic movement of dust particles can also be observed in a glass container when it is brightly illuminated. The dust particles are continuously bombarded by the air particles, causing them to move in a haphazard manner.

These examples effectively demonstrate the movement of particles and provide evidence that matter is made up of particles. The ways that matter interacts with each other in space provide evidence to support the theory that matter is made up of particles.

When 50 mls of water is added to 50 mls of isopropyl alcohol, the final volume of the mixture of the two solutions is observed to be less than 100mls. Why would this be? Something must happen between the water and the alcohol when they are mixed to reduce the resulting volume. A reduction of volume implies that the same amount of stuff (50 mls + 50 mls) now fits into a smaller space. To do this, there must be some space within the water and the alcohol that is used up when the two are mixed. Also, the water particles and isopropyl alcohol particles form bonds when they are mixed together, which hold the particles closer together.

Types of particles that make up matter

There are three different types of particles that make up matter:

• Atoms

Atoms are the smallest units of a chemical element which have all the characteristics of the element. For example, magnesium is made up of magnesium atoms, Mg (see page 19).

Molecules

Molecules are groups of two or more atoms bonded together and which can exist on their own.

Molecules may be made up of atoms of the same kind. For example, oxygen molecules, O2, are made up of oxygen atoms. Molecules may also be made up of atoms of different kinds. For example, water molecules, H2O, are made up of two hydrogen atoms, H, and one oxygen atom, O.

Ions

Ions are electrically charged particles. Ions may be formed from a single atom, for example, the lithium ion, Li+. They may also be formed from groups of two or more atoms bonded together, for example, the carbonate ion, CO2− 3 (see page 74). These are called polyatomic ions

The three states of matter

The particulate theory of matter helps to explain the physical properties of matter and the differences between the three states of matter that are most commonly experienced on Earth. Conditions such as temperature and pressure affect the arrangement of the particles, the types of forces between the particles, and the types of motion that the particles can undergo.

Solids have a regular arrangement of closely packed particles. These particles are strongly attracted to each other with little movement between them. Solids therefore have a fixed shape and volume and are difficult to compress.

Uses of osmosis

To control garden pests

Slugs and snails are garden pests (Figure 1.5) whose skin is differentially permeable and always moist.

When salt (sodium chloride) is sprinkled on the moist skin of slugs and snails, the skin acts as a differentially permeable membrane, the salt particles dissolves in the moisture forming a concentrated solution. Water inside their bodies then moves out by osmosis to equalize the salt concentration between the inside and outside of the slugs and snails’ skin. The slugs and snails die from dehydration.

To preserve food

Salt and sugar are used to preserve foods such as meat, fish, fruits and vegetables (Figures 1.6, 1.7 and 1.8). They both work in the same way:

• They draw water out of the cells of the food by osmosis. This prevents the food from decaying because there is no water available in the cells for the chemical reactions which cause the decay to take place. They draw water out of microorganisms (bacteria and fungi) by osmosis. This prevents the food from decaying because it inhibits the growth of the microorganisms that cause the decay.

Le monde francophone

– to take out proposer – to offer

Les Français adorent le café ; au petit déjeuner et après un repas, les Français et les Françaises en boivent beaucoup. 20 pour cent des buveurs réguliers en boivent au moins cinq tasses par jour. Mais on ne voit pas souvent les chaînes américaines comme Starbucks en France. Pourquoi ? C’est parce que dans leur majorité, les Français apprécient le café noir, fort et nature. Un peu de lait ou du sucre peutêtre, mais autrement ils n’ajoutent rien.

Les Français sont des consommateurs « sociaux » de café. « Un café à emporter, s’il vous plaît !» n’est pas français ! 98 pour cent des buveurs réguliers de café français le consomment sur place, soit pour prendre une pause détente, soit pour un moment agréable de convivialité entre amis.

En France, les bistrots de quartier et les petits cafés en centre-ville font partie de la culture. Dans les pays anglo-saxons, comme aux États-Unis ou au Royaume-Uni par exemple, les gens aiment grignoter toutes les deux heures. Les Français, pourtant, préfèrent des repas plus copieux que les établissements comme Starbucks ne proposent pas. De plus, les serveurs typiquement français parlent avec leurs clients, ce que les baristas de Starbucks – entreprise bien connue pour son chiffre d'affaires élevé – ne font pas.

Trouvés surtout dans les grandes villes, comme Paris ou Lyon et dans les aéroports, Starbucks a ses clients fidèles. Mais pour les Français, pour qui le café symbolise un moment agréable et joyeux dans leur quotidien, la mousse au lait, les boissons chaudes dans des tasses énormes et les fauteuils très confortables sont inadaptés à la culture du pays. En France, les amateurs du café traditionnel continuent à faire de la résistance.

1 Lisez le texte. C’est vrai (V) ou faux (F) ?

1 Les Starbucks sont très populaires dans toutes les régions de France.

Le café Touba À Dakar, comme dans beaucoup de villes du pays, le café Touba est bu par les Sénégalais, à leur réveil, durant la journée et en rentrant au foyer après de longues heures de travail.  « J’en prends au moins quatre dans la journée », confesse un vendeur de tissus au marché GrandYoff (quartier de Dakar), en montrant une tasse à café jetable vide qu’il s’apprête à lancer dans une poubelle. « Je ne connais rien de plus énergisant que le café Touba. » Au début du dix-neuvième siècle on remarquait qu’en buvant du café local on pouvait rester éveillé afin de beaucoup travailler. De nos jours, le café Touba continue d’occuper une place de choix dans l’alimentation des Sénégalais.

Le café Touba est une boisson préparée à base du café arabica local aromatisé. On y ajoute une espèce de poivre (‘’djar’’ en wolof) et, parfois des clous de girofle, ce qui lui donne son « goût exquis », selon les amateurs sénégalais. Il se boit avec du sucre. Beaucoup de sucre.

À Dakar et un peu partout, on voit des vendeurs. On n’imagine pas une rue sans vendeur ambulant de café Touba mais il ne manque pas de clients. Ces vendeurs se lèvent à six heures du matin et chaque jour ils font le tour des quartiers des villes. Ils portent une marmite de café chauffée continuellement sur un fourneau. Ils ont souvent un seau de vingt litres de café Touba prêt à boire. Comme emploi ce n’est peut-être pas idéal, mais pour beaucoup de jeunes sans emploi ça leur permet de gagner assez d’argent pour vivre.

6 Que dit-on de l’emploi de vendeur ambulant ?

3 Plus de 50 pour cent de Français boivent au moins cinq tasses de café par jour.

2 La plupart des Français ne choisissent pas leur café à emporter.

4 Les bistrots et les petits cafés typiquement français sont en train de disparaître.

5 Les chaînes américaines préfèrent servir plus de clients rapidement.

6 On ne peut rien acheter à manger dans un Starbucks.

7 Certains français vont à Starbucks régulièrement.

8 On trouve des fauteuils dans beaucoup de cafés traditionnels.
