Why are there deserts in some countries and rainforests in other countries? It’s always very cold at the North Pole and South Pole, even in summer. Why isn’t it very cold all year where you live? Different places have different climates. Climate describes the usual weather of a place over many years and it inﬂuences the plants and animals that we ﬁnd there. There are three main climate zones: polar, temperate and tropical tropical. polar

ss se

Polar climates are cold all year and there is always snow and ice. In winter, the temperatures can be as low as -50ºC and it’s dark all the time. In summer, there is sun nearly all day, but it’s very weak, so it’s still cold. Temperate climates usually have winters that aren’t very cold and summers that aren’t very hot. Countries in the temperate climate zone have four seasons: winter, spring, summer and autumn.

The Lion of the Seas

Name: Ahmad Ibn Majid Year of birth: Around 1430 Occupation: Sailor, writer and poet Year of death: Around 1500 Place of birth: Julfar

As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p

Early Life

Ahmad Ibn Majid was born in Julfar, near where Dubai is today. He was the son of a famous sailor and he loved the sea. He wanted to be a sailor, so his father taught him everything about the art of navigation. Ahmad Ibn Majid was very brave and confident. When he was 17, he could navigate a ship by himself.

Ahmad Ibn Majid: The Sailor

He understood the sea and the wind very well and he studied the stars carefully. He used them to help him navigate. Other sailors called him ‘The Shooting Star’. Soon he could sail from Julfar to East Africa, India and to many other faraway places.

Ahmad Ibn Majid: The Writer

He also liked writing and he wrote 40 books about the sea, the stars and sea routes. He wrote poetry too. Soon he was famous and everyone talked about him.

Hundreds of years after he died, we still remember Ahmad Ibn Majid for his navigational skills. He’s called ‘The Lion of the Seas’.

Why we remember him

Vasco da Gama, the famous Portuguese explorer, wanted to sail from Portugal to India, but no-one knew how – except Ibn Majid! So he asked Ahmad Ibn Majid to help him. With his help, Vasco da Gama found the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa, sailed across the Indian Ocean and reached India.

About 65 million years ago, Earth lost half of all its animals. Many people believe that a meteorite hit the planet and this caused the extinction of so many animals. Extinction happens when the last member of a species dies. Dinosaurs probably became extinct because of this natural disaster, but other animals are now extinct because of humans. One example is the dodo. Dodos lived on an island. When humans arrived, they hunted the birds, and their dogs ate the dodos’ eggs. Soon there were no more dodos.

The list of endangered animals is very long and it includes polar bears, gorillas, rhinos and elephants.

What’s the difference between extinct and endangered? Why are animals endangered?

Animals become endangered for many reasons. Pollution and climate change are serious problems for all living things, but there are other reasons why so many animals are endangered. Hunters kill animals for their beautiful fur and some even kill them for sport. Humans cut down forests and change rivers to build cities and roads. This changes the animals’ habitats and the animals lose their homes and food. These actions put animals in danger of extinction. We must remember that we share our planet. It doesn’t belong to us.

They don’t want more animals to become extinct, like the Tasmanian tiger. The last time anyone saw this amazing animal was nearly 100 years ago. It was a very strange animal. It had a dog’s body, a wolf’s head, a kangaroo’s pouch and stripes like a tiger. It walked on four legs, but it could also hop on two legs. It was the largest

carnivorous marsupial on Earth. A carnivorous animal is an animal that eats meat. The Tasmanian tiger hunted at night. Unfortunately, Tasmanian tigers attacked sheep, so farmers hunted them and now experts believe that they’re extinct.

As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p

Australia has lots of unusual animals and many of them only live there, and nowhere else, for example kangaroos and koalas. These are both marsupials – animals that carry their babies in a pouch. Australia is also home to some very dangerous animals. It has more venomous species than

On the first day of March we arrived on a plane In Sydney, Australia, where there’s not so much rain. It was too hot for me and too hot for my dad And Mum said, ‘This weather’s the hottest we’ve had!’

As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p

Yes, the sun was so high and the sky was so blue And the air was so hot. Oh, what could we do? ‘Let’s go somewhere else,’ I said, ‘go somewhere cold, To the lovely Blue Mountains where they say there is gold.’ So we drove in the car on the very next day To the mountains that Mum said were not far away And the caves that were dark and so quiet and cold – Full of beautiful things, some new and some old. We walked and we talked in these Jenolan Caves, Mum, Dad and I, and our guide, Mr Graves. ‘This is limestone,’ he said, with his hand to the wall, ‘And it makes all these shapes, so big and so tall.’

Sustainability: Thinking in systems | A poem

But the torch on my helmet helped me to see, So I looked in the dark that was all around me, And I said to my dad, ‘They’re on top of your head!’ He put them back on and his face was bright red.

We had a good time in these interesting caves Until Dad said, ‘My glasses! My gla- … Mr Graves!’ We looked for them here and we looked for them there, And Dad said, ‘But when did I lose them? And where?’

‘Look at this,’ said our guide, ‘look up there, look at that! Here’s one like a hill! There’s one like a hat! Over time these things formed from the water that fell. Do you like them? They’ve all got some stories to tell.’

Learn about the history of musical instruments

The first electric guitars appeared in the 1930s. The electric guitar has a solid body and can make many different sounds. We also find them in many different shapes and sizes. Some electric guitars don’t look like guitars at all!

Guitars sometimes had pairs of strings like the lute, but the guitar changed over time to use single strings. People used guitars with six single strings for the first time in the 1600s in Italy, but the most important change happened in the 1850s. The Spanish guitar maker Antonio Torres Jurado made the guitar’s body bigger. His idea made the sound of the guitar louder and better. Most of today’s classical guitars follow his design.

The lute is also an ancient instrument similar to a guitar, but it has a short neck and a body like half a pear. It usually had more strings than a guitar and they were in pairs. From 1100–1500, travelling singers and story tellers played the lute to accompany their songs.

ss se

The guitar is one of the most popular musical instruments in the world. Many different cultures have played instruments like the guitar for over 3,000 years. The oldest instrument that we can see today comes from Ancient Egypt. You can see this guitar in a museum in Cairo. It belonged to a singer who sang for the Egyptian queen Hatshepsut. This type of guitar had a long neck and only three strings.

Listen and read. What did Marta do to get into the team?

3.15

The local football hero

My name is Marta and I’m 11. I’m from beautiful Brazil! But my family live in a poor area, and life isn’t easy. My brother and I always come straight home after school to help with the housework because my parents work very hard. But I have a passion … football! I want to tell you how football has changed my life.

As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p

I’ve always loved football and when I play, I feel happy and I forget about everything around me. My mum said, ‘Football isn't for girls‘, but I started practising with my dad and brother. The boys at school didn’t want to play with a girl, but when they saw I was good, they wanted me in their team.

One day, a teacher told me about a football team just for girls. They were preparing for a competition in March. I went to meet them and they were amazing. I decided to try my hardest to get in the team. When I told my family, my mum said, ‘It isn’t going to be easy for you because football’s a boy’s sport,’ but my dad and brother helped me train. Finally, in February the coach told us which players were going to play in the competition. When I heard my name, I jumped up and down with excitement.

Speaking & writing skills

We travelled to Rio de Janeiro and we won the competition – it was amazing! We’ve played against a lot of very good teams since then and we’ve won a lot of those matches, but more importantly, I’ve made lots of friends and become more confident.

When I'm older, I want to be a professional footballer. For me, it’s important to speak English, just like my football idols. So I have to study hard so I can travel round the world. That’s my biggest dream in life.

lines of latitude

The Greenwich Meridian is a very important line of longitude which passes through London in the UK. It traditionally sets the time for all the clocks around the world. The time on this line of longitude is Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). If you live to the east of the Greenwich Meridian, it’s later than in London. If you live to the west, it’s earlier. Large countries like the USA have three or more time zones, but most countries have one, so the time is the same everywhere in that country. Before you phone a friend, check what time it is in their country. You might call them at 3.00 in the morning and no-one wants to talk then!

Her dress is made of leaves and butterflies fly around her head. Mother Mountain is a friend to all animals and trees. She protects them and they feel safe with her.

As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p

One day, a farmer was walking into the forest. Mother Mountain appeared from nowhere. ‘Why have you come into the forest?’ she asked. ‘To cut down trees to make more farmland,’ the farmer replied. ‘You can’t cut down my trees,’ Mother Mountain said, her green eyes turning an angry red.

‘The environment is important for you and me! Go to sleep now then wake up and see!’ The farmer fell into a deep sleep. A cool wind was moving the trees of the forest, making a soft sound in the leaves. It seemed to be saying ‘Thank you, Mother Mountain.’ Later, a hunter was silently following a beautiful brown bear through the forest. Again, Mother Mountain appeared from nowhere. ‘Why have you come into the forest?’ she asked. ‘I’ve come for the bear,’ the hunter replied. ‘I need meat to give to my children.’ The hunter saw that Mother Mountain’s eyes were turning an angry red.

The farmer and the hunter slept for many hours and when they woke up, Mother Mountain had disappeared. All they saw was the bright beauty of the forest all around them. They promised the trees and the animals of the forest that they would never hurt them again.

The hunter fell into a deep sleep and the bear looked at Mother Mountain with its dark brown eyes and made a soft sound. It seemed to be saying ‘Thank you, Mother Mountain.’

‘You can’t kill my animals,’ she said. ‘The environment’s important for you and me! Go to sleep now then wake up and see!’

As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p

U June

December

October

Look at the picture of Earth in December. The North Pole tilts away from the sun. This means that the northern hemisphere will be colder in December. The South Pole tilts towards the sun in December, so that’s when the southern hemisphere is warmer. This is why it’s winter in the northern hemisphere when it’s summer in the southern hemisphere. Find the equator in the pictures of Earth in March, December, October and June. Why don’t countries on the equator have the four seasons? They’re at the centre of Earth, so they have the same amount of sunlight all year.

ss se

You know that the equator is an imaginary line that goes around Earth. It divides Earth into two hemispheres: the northern and southern hemispheres. Earth’s axis is another imaginary line. It passes through the centre of Earth between the North Pole and the South Pole. You can see in the diagrams that Earth’s axis isn’t vertical. It tilts to one side. Earth travels around the sun in one year (365 days). As it travels, different places on Earth are closer to the sun. This is why there are different seasons.

The Andes is the longest mountain range in the world and 4,000 kilometres of it is on the border between Chile and Argentina. Argentina also has almost 5,000 kilometres of coast from north to south. It’s no problem to go skiing in summer and swim in the sea in winter. You only have to choose the correct place!

Argentina is a very large country in South America. It’s in the southern hemisphere, so winter begins in June and summer begins in December. However, it isn’t cold in winter in all of Argentina because it has different climate zones. Let’s look at two examples. The north of Argentina is near the equator and it has a tropical climate. There are lots of rainforests and there are high temperatures all year, even in winter. The south of Argentina has a polar climate. It’s close to Antarctica, so it’s very cold all year – cold enough for penguins – because it’s never near the sun. In many countries we can say, ‘I go skiing

Tomás and the snowman ge

Valentín lived with his parents and younger brother, Tomás, in Patagonia.

As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p

One day, it snowed so much that the hill behind Valentín’s house turned completely white. Valentín looked out of the window. ‘Wow! I can’t wait to go snowboarding,’ he thought. But his mother saw him putting on his coat and said, ‘Go and help Tomás make a snowman, Valentin.’

‘OK, Mum,’ said Valentín. But as he walked out into the bright, cold morning, he could already see his friends on snowboards on the hill. Valentín thought ‘Why can’t I go snowboarding too?’ as he helped Tomás decorate the snowman with a carrot for a nose, stones for eyes and sticks for arms.

Tomás was happy with the snowman and called him El Viejo, the old man. ‘Let’s make a friend for him. I’ll get more sticks and stones!’ he shouted as he ran off. Valentín looked again at his friends snowboarding on the hill. When Tomás got back, El Viejo had disappeared. ‘Where is he?!’ he shouted. Valentín looked at the ground. ‘I don’t know,’ he said quietly. ‘He ran away.’ ‘What? No!’ cried Tomás. ‘Come back El Viejo!’ he shouted before turning to run into the house. ‘Mummy, Daddy! El Viejo’s gone!’ Valentín walked into the house. His parents and Tomás were sitting at the kitchen table. His mother gave him a long look. ‘What do you have to say to your brother?’ she said.

So, they went back outside. They filled the garden with snowmen. Valentín looked at Tomas´s happy face and thought, ‘Well, there's always tomorrow. I’ll go snowboarding then.’

‘Really?’ said Tomás with a big smile. ‘Can we?!’

Valentín looked down. ‘I’m sorry, Tomás,’ he said quietly. ‘Do you want to make another El Viejo?’

Your friends are snowboarding and you want to join them. You think that making snowmen is boring and you don’t want to spend all day doing it.

Not very long ago, we thought of robots as science fiction, but robots are already part of our lives. Robots are machines that can do the actions of a human. At first, most robots did boring or dangerous work in factories, like putting parts of cars together or putting chocolate bars in boxes ready to go to the shops. They could repeat the same action all day and never get bored. Those robots didn’t need a human to control every action. Other robots need human control.

of mobile digital music. You can now take your music with you and listen to it anywhere: on a bus, on a train or in bed. In the past you could take your music with you, but the machines were big and uncomfortable to carry. Technology is not just for fun. Inventors in South Korea have also created things that really help people. For example, there is now software to help people who cannot see well. You can put the software on your tablet, and it translates the text on an e-book to Braille for you. This means that anyone at school, university or at work can study and work in any job they want to. You can see why South Korea is so important in the world of technology, can’t you?

South Korea is a country in Asia. It isn’t a large country, but more than 50 million people live there. South Korea is one of the most modern and developed countries in the world, with a very important electronics industry. South Korea also has some of the most interesting ideas in the world of technology. You probably use many of these inventions every day, but did you know that they come from South Korea? For example, have you got a mobile phone or a tablet? South Korean scientists invented the touch screen. Before this invention, people had to press buttons or use a special kind of pen to give instructions to the machine. It’s much easier to give the instructions with your fingers. South Korea also invented the first MP3 player. In the past, people collected big round records or cassettes of their favourite music. The invention of the MP3 player was the beginning

Afterwards, Seo-Joon said to Buddie, ‘I’m sorry they were mean to you. Don’t be sad.’ ‘Buddie doesn’t understand “sad”,’ Buddie replied. ‘Never mind,’ Seo-Joon said, and he added, ‘I didn’t understand the maths problem today. It was very difficult.’ ‘Was it?’ said the robot. ‘Buddie can help you with it.’

‘Can you?!’ Seo-Joon said, happily. ‘Thank you, Buddie!’

Buddie explained it and suddenly it didn’t seem so difficult. ‘I understand now: 25/35 is the same as 5/7 so 25/35 – 5/7 = 0!’ Seo-Joon said happily. ‘Well done. It’s easy, isn’t it?’ said Buddie. ‘Yes!’ said Seo-Joon.

At that moment, Seo-Joon’s friends walked past the door of the classroom. ‘Hey, Seo-Joon, we’re going to play on our hoverboards in the playground. You’ll come with us, won’t you?’ they said. ‘Sure!’ he replied. ‘Do you want to come Buddie? It’ll be fun!’

ss se

‘Buddie wants to understand fun. Buddie will come with you,’ the robot replied.

They played for the next hour without stopping until finally Seo-Joon said, ‘It’s nearly dinner time. I have to go home.’

On Monday morning, Seo-Joon’s classmates were complaining. ‘Time for another boring class with Buddie.’ But Buddie said, ‘Today we’re going to start class with a fun game.’ ‘Yaaaaay!’ the class cheered. 76

‘It was, wasn’t it?’ said Seo-Joon. ‘You see Buddy, you can understand fun!’

‘OK,’ said Buddie. ‘But we can play again tomorrow, can’t we? That was fun!’

We use machines to help us in different ways: to work, travel, communicate … or to have fun. There are simple machines, with only one or no moving parts, like a screw, and complex machines, with many parts that work together, like a clock. ‘Time to get up!’ Clocks control modern life. Today, we nearly always know the time, but early humans didn’t worry about it. They hunted and worked when it was light and they slept at night. However, as civilisations developed, humans wanted to know the time. The Egyptians built enormous towers and used shadows and the sun to tell the time. Later, people used a smaller version of this, called a sundial a , but this can’t help on cloudy days or at night. For hundreds of years people marked and burnt candles or they used a water clock a or an hourglass a , which used sand. The 14th century mechanical clock a was a European invention. It rang a bell every hour. Clockmakers added the hour and minute hands. A clock with hands is called an analogue clock a and a digital clock a only has numbers. Our clocks today are much more accurate than earlier versions and they’re everywhere: on our computers, tablets, phones and even in the street. No-one should be late these days!

The Ancient Egyptians were one of the earliest human civilisations to develop, and their inventions were amazing. 3,000 years ago, their technology helped them build the pyramids and royal palaces. They had their own writing called hieroglyphics and they made paper from the papyrus plant. The pyramids in Egypt are some of the most impressive things that humans have built. When a pharaoh (their king) died, the people buried him inside a pyramid. There are about 140 pyramids. The largest

is the Pyramid of Khufu or the Great Pyramid of Giza, which was about 150 metres tall. We can see that they used enormous blocks of rock, but there are some important questions. How did the Ancient Egyptians bring the rocks to the place where they were building the pyramid? How did they lift the rocks to the top? Experts think that they brought the rocks down the River Nile on rafts. They didn’t have the machines that we have today, but they had simple machines like ramps and levers.

The boy king ge

In 1922, archaeologists found the tomb of the Egyptian pharaoh, Tutankhamun – or Tut for short. We know that he had a broken leg when he died, but we have very little other information about him. This is one possible story of what happened to him:

As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p

When Tut was a child, he was happy. He spent every day playing in the palace. But when he was nine, his father died and he became pharaoh.

He didn’t know how to be pharaoh. He was only a child. But two men called Horemheb and Ay controlled him and told him what to do. They were the real rulers of Egypt and Tut hated them. When Tut was 18, he married a girl called Ank. For his wedding present, Horemheb and Ay gave him new sandals. Tut looked at the sandals. They were strange. They had faces painted on the bottom. ‘These are the faces of your enemies, Sir,’ said Horemheb. ‘They’re used for walking on the people you don’t like.’

ss se

Tut liked the idea of walking on his enemies. ‘But,’ he thought, ‘Horemheb and Ay are my real enemies. They never let me do what I want.’ He decided to paint their faces on the sandals. He worked carefully so they looked exactly right. He put them back on and walked through the palace, smiling to himself with every step.

Later that day, Ay came to see Tut. ‘Ah, I see you’re wearing your new sandals, Sir,’ he said, smiling. ‘What do you want, Ay?’ said Tut. ‘Sir, there’s something we must discuss 90

in the throne room,’ replied Ay. ‘Very well, let’s go,’ said Tut. But as he turned, his new sandal slipped on the hard stone floor and he fell, breaking his leg. It was a very bad break and Tut became sick and died.

Mars is the fourth planet from the sun. It’s called ‘the red planet’ because iron oxide (rusty iron) gives the surface this colour. Mars is a cold, desert world and, like Earth, it has seasons and weather. Scientists want to know if Mars had living things in the past. They think that in the past there was liquid water on the planet. NASA believes that it will be possible to send astronauts to Mars by 2030. We have to know what dangers there are and find a way to protect the astronauts. This is why there have been robots on Mars for many years.

The robots send information back to Earth about the rocks and atmosphere on Mars, and scientists design materials to help astronauts to survive there. How can we prepare people on Earth for a Mars mission? Diﬀerent groups of six scientists have spent eight months in a special dome. Could people live in a small group out of contact with their friends and families, with no phones or messages? Yes! The experiments have worked and the mission plans continue.

Why have we sent robots to Mars? What do these robots do?

The International Space Station (the ISS) is a huge science laboratory in space where astronauts can live and work. The astronauts come from diﬀerent countries around the world. It’s quite diﬀicult living on a space station because there is no gravity. Everything floats, so there are special ways to have a shower, wash your hair and go to the toilet on a space station.

On Earth, we’re always moving against gravity (except when we’re asleep) and this helps us to keep fit. If astronauts don’t exercise, they become weak and they have serious health problems when they return to Earth. This is why the astronauts have

Hello! This is Elena Romano. I’m on board Explorer One with Luca Rossi. We are the lucky winners of a competition to become the ﬁrst children in space. We’re travelling with two astronauts called Leo and Melita and I’m going to write about what happens. This will be an exciting adventure! Space exploration is so important because it helps us understand our universe!

Nikos in Athens wants to know the worst thing about space. The food, Nikos! There is no word to describe it. Yuk! Luca says he wants to eat a bowl of his grandmother’s pasta. Me too, Luca, me too!

I’ve had questions from people on Earth:

That’s easy – looking out of the window at planet Earth. It’s so beautiful! Luca’s favourite thing is zero gravity!!

This is getting frightening. The lights on the spaceship keep turning off. Leo and Melita are trying to ﬁx the engine. They’ve told us not to worry, but we don’t know what’s going to happen. Luca thinks we’ll be lost in space forever …

What’s the best thing about space?

BLOG POST 6: DAY EIGHT (afternoon)

No, we aren’t. We feel very safe!

Are you afraid?

This morning Luca and I were looking out of the window when Leo appeared. ‘Bad news,’ he said. ‘The engine isn’t working very well.’ Luca asked, ‘What’s going to happen?’ Leo only said, ‘I don’t know.’

Speaking & writing skills BLOG POST 7: DAY EIGHT (evening)

Look and read. Find the correct words in the blog.

We’re nearly home! Leo and Melita asked us to fly the spaceship for them while they fixed the engine. Well, the spaceship’s computer flies the spaceship, but we had to watch the screen and make sure that we were moving from left to right on the screen! Finally, Melita said, ‘We’ve fixed the engine. You two can have a rest now. Why don’t you have some space food while we slowly go back to Earth?’

This makes something move – like a car or a plane. This is a very exciting experience. This person travels into space. People travel into space in this. People try to win this. Computers have this. We see pictures and words on it.

Read the questions. Ask and answer.

You’re Luca. You’re very worried about the spaceship’s engine. Talk about what you can do to help. You’re Elena. You’re also worried about the spaceship’s engine, and you want to help the astronauts.

Yesterday, William and his cousin Katy watched a film about a red planet at the cinema. ‘I really want to be an astronaut,’ Katy said before the film. ‘I think it’ll be frightening because space is enormous.’ ‘I don’t really like adventures – only in films!’ William replied. At the end of the film, the people were living in strange, new cities on the red planet because no-one wanted to live on Earth.

The cacao tree grows in hot climate zones. It has small white flowers and some of these flowers grow fruit called pods. The pods can be as big as footballs. When the pods are ready, they change colour and workers cut them down from the tree. Next, they crush the beans and take out the cocoa liquid. This isn’t sweet – it’s very bitter. They have to add sugar and sometimes milk to the cocoa liquid to make it sweet.

They open the pods and take out the beans. Inside the pods, there are 20 to 50 beans. The beans dry in the sun. The workers then put the beans into sacks and send them to the factory.

At the factory, they clean and cook the beans.

Finally, they heat the mixture so they can make different shapes with it. What does your favourite chocolate bar look like?

Listen and read about a popular meal in the UK. Where’s it from?

9.14

Traditional foods use ingredients that people can find locally – that’s why they’re traditional. For example, China grows rice, so rice usually accompanies a Chinese meal. Fish and chips developed as a traditional meal on the UK coast because it was easy to buy fish (and potatoes, of course).

As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p

These days, one of the most popular meals in the UK is not British. Do you recognise the food in the photo? This is curry, with rice, Indian bread and the other things that usually accompany it.

The curries that people eat in the UK are originally from India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. Curry has become an important part of British life and 23 million people in the UK say that they eat curry regularly. Some people like very hot, spicy curries, but others prefer a milder curry. Have you ever tried curry? And would you like yours spicy?

Every Saturday morning, Bruno gets up at five to make gingerbread people. He mixes flour, sugar and eggs in a big bowl. As he bakes, he sings happily to himself. He loves baking. When the gingerbread people are ready, he and his dad, Tom, take them to Spring Wood Home for Older People. The delicious gingerbread people are famous all over London. One day, a man came to the house. ‘Hello,’ said Bruno, but the man didn’t reply. He just took a deep breath and smiled. ‘Ahh … gingerbread,’ he finally said. ‘It smells like my granny’s kitchen. I’m Mr Brett the Baker. I have cake shops all over London and I want to buy your special recipe. I could make you very rich!’ ‘Really?’ Bruno said. ‘But I don’t have a special recipe.’ ‘No extra special ingredient?’ Mr Brett asked, walking past Bruno into the kitchen. ‘No …,’ said Bruno. He followed Mr Brett but didn’t see him quickly pick up a gingerbread girl and put her into his pocket. ‘Well, never mind,’ said Mr Brett, walking towards the door. ‘Goodbye!’ In his pocket, the gingerbread girl came to life.

She was in an enormous bakery. ‘It looks like a factory,’ she thought. ‘Mrs Brett, I want you to find out what this gingerbread’s secret ingredient is,’ Mr Brett shouted. ‘Later,’ said Mrs Brett, walking into the bakery, ‘I’m going to the market now.’ ‘They mustn’t find out the recipe!’ thought the gingerbread girl, and she jumped into Mrs Brett’s handbag. Mrs Brett caught a bus and went into town. The gingerbread girl looked out of the window at the famous sights of London and the crowds of people. Then, something amazing happened. She saw Bruno and his dad. She quickly ran off the bus and across the road and jumped into Bruno’s coat pocket. Bruno gave out the gingerbread people at Spring Wood, but when he got to the last lady, Freya, there weren’t any left. ‘That’s strange,’ he thought, ‘I always make 50.’ He looked again. ‘Oh, here she is,’ he said, handing the gingerbread girl to Freya. Freya smiled and said, ‘These biscuits make me so happy. They taste like home! You must put a lot of love into them.’ Bruno smiled and said, ‘Yes, that’s my secret special ingredient – love.’

Hi Oliver, How are you? I want to tell you about my trip to the city space museum two days ago. I’ve never been before so I was very excited! I was looking after my little sister and she was bored so I said ‘We’re going on an adventure!’ Adventures make her happy! When we arrived, we started to explore. It’s enormous, not expensive and full of interesting and exciting objects to touch. The ﬁrst room you enter looks like deep space. There is information about different planets with a quiz at the end. The winner can invent a name for a planet – that’s exciting, isn’t it? The next room looks like the inside of a spaceship. You can touch an astronaut’s spacesuit (I don’t know how an astronaut can wear it – it looks really heavy!) and you can see where the astronauts prepare their food – did you know they use a knife, fork and spoon to eat? I didn’t – I thought it was all in bags. We were looking at the oven from the spaceship when my sister said she was hungry, so we went to have a snack. They were preparing a pizza in the restaurant and the smell of food always makes me hungry so we had a piece of pizza with olives! It was delicious. While we were eating the pizza, they were baking biscuits, so we bought some. Don’t worry! We have left some for you – you will love them! They look like rockets and taste like honey! After lunch, we explored more of the museum and stayed for the rest of the day. They were turning off the lights when we left! Have you ever been to a museum? See you soon, Helen

Present perfect with just, already, yet

Jenny’s just fallen off her camel!

ss se

We often use the present perfect with the words just, already and yet. We use just to say that something happened a very short time ago. When we use it with the present perfect, it goes between the verb have and the past participle. Justin has just started at a new school, and he’s feeling nervous. We use already to say that something happened before now. It usually also goes between the verb have and the past participle. I’ve already been to Japan twice, but I want to go back again next year. We use not … yet to say that something hasn’t happened before now, and we use yet to ask questions. Yet usually comes at the end of a sentence. I haven’t learnt the song yet. I’m going to do it this weekend. ‘Have you learnt the song yet?’ ‘No, I haven’t.’

Past continuous

We use the past continuous tense to talk about actions that continued for a period of time in the past. We form the past continuous tense with was/were and the -ing form of the verb (e.g. doing). was

You We They

were

watching a film.

Was Were

I He/She/It

Yes,

I he/she/it

swimming in the pool?

you we they

No, Yes, No,

was. I he/she/it wasn’t. you we they

were. weren’t.

We often use the past continuous and the past simple together when one action interrupts another action. We were eating dinner when he phoned me.

for and since

As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p

He was driving slowly.

We use the present perfect with for and since to talk about something that started in the past and continues into the present. We use for before a period of time (e.g. five minutes, two weeks, three years). Amy’s lived in this town for five years. We use since before the point in time when something started (e.g. three o’clock, Friday, 2014). Harry’s been at school since seven o’clock this morning.

will/won’t

Unit

We use will and won’t to talk about actions and events in the future, and to make offers. We form it with will/won’t and the base form of the verb (e.g. do). ’ll won’t

Will

do the shopping.

do the shopping?

No,

I you he/she/it we they

will. won’t.

We’ll have a lovely day out.

Conjunctions: so and because

Yes,

Remember: I will = I’ll will not = won’t

Won’t

I you he/she/it we they

ss se

I You He/She/It We They

We use so and because to talk about the reasons why something happens. We use because to talk about causes. We use so to talk about effects. We often use a comma (,) before so, but we don’t use one before because. I’m not wearing my gloves, so I’ve got cold hands. because I’m not wearing my gloves. I’ve got cold hands

Question tags

We use question tags at the end of a sentence to check that a statement is true. If the statement is positive, we usually use a negative question tag. If the statement is negative, we usually use a positive question tag. With most verbs in the present, we use do/does and don’t in the question tag.

You like cycling, She doesn’t drink coffee,

don’t you? does she?

When we’re using the verb to be, an auxiliary verb (e.g. are going to do, have done) or a modal verb (e.g. can, could, will), we use those verbs in the question tag.

We aren’t late, He is going to the cinema tonight, Jake hasn’t done his homework, Mia can ride a bike, They couldn’t hear the music, I will see you at the concert,

That’s the biggest robot in the world, isn’t it?

As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p

are we? isn’t he? has he? can’t she? could they? won’t I?

When the verb is in the past simple, we usually use did and didn’t in the question tag. When we’re using the verb to be, we use was/were. We went to the same school, didn’t we? You didn’t see the doctor, did you? Charlie wasn’t at home last night, was he? The students weren’t happy about the exam, were they?

Short questions

We use short questions to show interest or surprise. We use a positive verb if the verb in the main sentence is positive. We use a negative verb if the verb in the main sentence is negative. Like question tags, we use do/does and don’t with most verbs in the present simple tense.

‘Does she?’ ‘Don’t you?’

ss se

‘Ella lives on this street.’ ‘I don’t watch TV in the morning.’

If the main sentence uses the verb to be, an auxiliary verb (e.g. are going to do, have done) or a modal verb (e.g. can, could, will), we repeat it.

This puppy can play with a ball!

124 Grammar reference

‘Is he?’ ‘Was there?’ ‘Aren’t you?’ ‘Have you?’ ‘Can she?’

‘Tom is a police officer.’ ‘There was a fire at the factory last night.’ ‘We aren’t going to the concert tomorrow.’ ‘I have lived here for three years’. ‘Emily can repair your bike.’ ‘My brothers will be at the airport when we arrive tomorrow.’

‘Will they?’

Can it?

Unit

Past participles

We use past participles when we form the present perfect tense. For regular verbs, we form the past participle by adding -ed to the base form of the verb (e.g. borrow – borrowed, start – started). I’ve borrowed your tablet to play a game – I’ll give it back! I’ve bought this rug. Harry has started playing the guitar, but it’s quite difficult.

There are a lot of irregular past participles (e.g. forgot – forgotten, take – taken). You can check the past participles of some important irregular verbs on p127. Josh has forgotten where he put his sports kit. My dad has taken thousands of photos on his camera; he’s a photographer.

As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p

be used for/to

? + + + +

We can use the phrases be used for and be used to to describe the purpose of an object. We use the -ing form of the verb after be used for. We use the base form of the verb (e.g. do) after be used to.

What is this machine used for? The pyramids were used for This machine is used for making ice cream. burying the Egyptian kings. This machine is used to make ice cream. 100 years ago, candles were used for lighting people’s homes. In the past, animal skins were used to write on.

will and going to

Unit

We use will to say what we think will happen in the future (to make predictions). We use will or won’t + the base form of the verb. (See p123 for a table with will.) In the future, we won’t drive cars. They will drive themselves!

are aren’t

He She

is isn’t

going to

eat lunch.

Are

you we they

he she

going to

eat lunch?

You We They

am ’m not

ss se

We use going to to talk about our plans for the future. We form it with the verb to be + going to + the base form of the verb.

My astronaut is going to travel in an enormous spaceship. Grammar reference 125

Review of past tenses

We often use the past continuous and the past simple together when one action interrupts another action.

We were eating dinner when he phoned me. The past simple describes the important, shorter action (he phoned me). The past continuous describes a longer action that happens before and after (we were eating dinner). We often use when before the verb in the past simple.

when I heard a loud noise outside. when the telephone rang.

I was talking to my friend on the phone Olivia and Nico were watching TV

As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p

It smells/tastes/looks/feels/sounds like …

Unit

Verbs like smell and taste describe what we experience with our senses. We usually use adjectives after these verbs. Lily’s trainers smell bad because she wore them in the rain. We use verbs like smell and taste with like to say what something is similar to or what something might be. We use a noun after like.

Dad’s socks This bread That cloud This jumper That noise

smell like tastes like looks like feels like sounds like

old cheese. the bread we ate in Italy. a plane. wool. my phone.

They look like spaghetti, but they don’t taste like spaghetti.

ss se

Make somebody + adjective

We use make somebody + adjective to talk about how a person feels as a result of something. We form it with the verb to make + object (e.g. me, you)) + adjective.

Long queues

make

me/you/him/ her/us/them

angry.

makes

Loud music
