Most modern computers have a DVD-drive. You can use this machine to listen tomusic CDs and to watch your favouritefilms. You can also use it to read CD-ROMs.CD-ROMs hold the same information asthousands of pages of a book. Why willpeople buy books from bookshops if theycan read them on their computer screen?Why will they borrow books fromlibraries? Research recently showed thatbooks and newspapers are still verypopular. Computers are expensive, butbooks and newspapers cost very little. Butthe big advantage is that you can pick up abook quickly and easily and then put itdown again.You don’t have to worry aboutopening programs or saving data.
Most experts say that books will continueto exist, but that we will use them in adifferent way. People didn’t stop writingletters after the invention of the telephonein 1876. Firstly, not everyone had atelephone. But, more importantly, peoplestarted sending letters for differentpurposes. Today, people don’t writepersonal letters. They use their mobilephones and e-mail instead. Similarly,before the invention of the camera, weused paintings to record how peoplelooked. Today, we use cameras to do this,but it doesn’t mean that there are no newpaintings and painters.

Mount Everest, but I haven’t climbed it. I Three

after they climb the mountain. There was rubbish
everywhere. The camp wasn’t eco-friendly at all.
The people in Nepal were very friendly and I’d like

Everest. I don’t like heights!

Kaikoura is my favourite place there. Kaikoura is a

The CamelWhat is special about the camel?
Well, first of all, camels have
humps. Some of them have one
hump and some have two. The
Arabian one-humped camel came
originally from the Middle East;
the two-humped Bactrian camel
was originally from the dry parts
of Asia. Camels are the largest
animals in the desert. Camels are
common in zoos around the
world, but today they’re rare in
the wild. They are between 2.25
and 3.45 metres long, and they
are up to 2.1 metres tall. Arabian
camels have longer legs, but they
aren’t as heavy as Bactrian
camels.
Camels have got thick fur. This
protects them against the hot
days and cold nights of the
desert. Their huge feet, with only
two toes, are ideal for walking on
sand, and they can close their
noses when they are in a
sandstorm.
There isn’t a lot of water in the
desert, so how do camels
survive? Camels have a solution
for this problem. They don’t need
to drink for long periods of time
because they can store water in
their humps. They just drink a lot
before a long journey! In fact,
camels can drink more than 50
litres of water in a short time.
They store this water, and their
food, in their humps.
➒ Read the text and choose the correctanswer.
1 Camels have got:
a one hump.
b two humps.
c either one or two humps.
2 There aren’t many camels:
a in the desert.
b in the wild.
c in zoos.
3 Arabian camels are:
a heavier than Bactrian camels.
b taller than Bactrian camels.
c longer than Bactrian camels.
4 Camels have got:
a two toes.
b very big feet.
c short legs.
5 Deserts are:
a very hot and dry places.
b ideal for walking.
c always warm at night.
6 Camels can travel long distances:
a before they need to drink.
b because they’ve got big feet.
c in a short time.
