The Planets
The moon and the stars are not the only objects shining in the sky.
There are planets. The sun has nine planets around it. We live in the 3 rd
planet from the sun . Earth moves around the sun once a year. It's about 150
kilometers away from the sun. Mercury is the closest to the sun, the most
distant planet is Pluto.
Planets don't send out their heat or light like the sun. They shine in the
sky only, because the sun shines on them. They reflect the sun's light just
like the moon does . The nearest planets to the sun are too hot to live on,
while those furthest away are too cold. Living things would not be able to
survive on these planets.

Be Careful Egypt is a rich country, but most Egyptians do not know how to use
things carefully. Have you ever thought of the drop of water that is used
carelessly and felt sorry for the piece of bread that you throw away?
The pieces of bread you throw away cost the government 80 million
pounds a year and thousands of children need such pieces of bread. The drop
of water you lose is very important. In the future we may not find enough
water to meet our needs. We need it for drinking, washing and turning out
desert into green land. Without water, we would not have electricity which
moves machines and so factories would stop working. Also our fields would
become dry. So, we would be very poor and live a miserable life like the
people in the south of the Sahara who can't find food or water easily.

The Life of the Ancient Egyptians

Their kings (the pharaohs) were very powerful. The pharaohs built huge
tombs to be buried in. The Egyptians thought that the pharaoh was a god.

Women wore long dresses. Men wore open sandals. They shaved their
heads because the weather was hot.

home. Most men were farmers. Some men were builders or fishermen. The
children did the same jobs as their parents. Girls stayed at home with their
mothers. They learned to look after their families. Boys worked with their
fathers. They only went to school if they wanted to be scribes (writers).
Children played running and jumping games. Their small toys were made

Swimming
We may not live near the sea, but there is usually a public swimming
pool or a public swimming bath that we can use. All of them have life
guards to look after the swimmers. The most important thing is to learn
how to swim. If you lie on the water, you don't sink – you float. People sink
when they are frightened.
Keep calm. Never go swimming alone, go with friends. If one gets
into difficulties, the others can help him. Never swim when a red flag is
flying. This means it is dangerous to swim. The waves may not look very
big, but the sea is dangerous. Do not swim after a big meal. People who
swim when their stomachs are full of food often become ill.

[9] Read the following passage then answer the questions:
Have you ever seen a panda? Pandas live in the mountains of China
in bamboo forests. You may have seen a panda on pictures or on TV.
Pandas sleep about ten hours a day. When they are awake, they spend
most of the day eating. They love to eat bamboo. They also like to eat
meat, but it is very hard for pandas to catch small animals to eat because
they are so large and they move so slowly. So pandas eat mostly bamboo.
Pandas are very playful. They like to roll around on the ground.
Pandas make noises; they bark like dogs when they meet other pandas.
There is a big problem with pandas. It is difficult for them to raise
baby pandas and very often they die when they are still babies. There are
fewer and fewer pandas in the world. Soon, they may become extinct.
Scientists do not know why this happens but they are trying to find out.
People in zoos are helping pandas raise their youngs. In this way, someday
there will be more pandas in the world.
