ANIMALS OF THE WORLD

If you talk to people about the natural world, most people will say they love animals. But a lot of people dont realize

that many types of animal need protection. The human race doesnt respect the environment and this puts animals

in danger. For example, forests where animals live are being cut down, the seas are being polluted, and animals

are being killed for their skins.

ANIMALS AT HOME

Many people have animals at home but this does not mean they look after them well. Parents sometimes buy cats, dogs,and rabbits for their children without explaining what to do with them. It is fashionable to buy exotic pets like snakes andbirds, but people cant provide the right conditions for them, so they suffer.

WHAT DO WE DO?

Save The Animals has worked since 1996 to improve the situation for animals all over the world. We work with localpeople to protect animal environments, boycott companies who pollute the seas, and campaign against hunting. Lastyear we sent a petition to the government to stop the import of exotic animals for sale in pet shops.

Dear Sir or Madam

I am writing to complain about your news programme The World Today, which is

shown every weekday at 6.30 p.m. and 9.30 p.m. The programme that was shownon Wednesday 19 July at 6.30 was particularly worrying. I was watching television

with my two young children at that time and images of war and children suffering

from disease were shown. No warning was given to tell viewers that the content of

the film was shocking. Both of my children cried and I had to switch the programme

off.

.....................................................

5 How did his children react to what they saw?

....................................................

6 Did the children watch the news at 9.30?

.....................................................

7 Did Mr Harrison find out a lot about the war in the second programme?

.....................................................

8 Were the couple in the interview married?

.....................................................

9 What time would be better for interviews with famous people?

.....................................................

10 Why might Mr Harrison stop watching the channel?

.....................................................


I then watched the later news programme after my children had gone to bed. I was

expecting to receive more information on the war situation, but only a brief report was

given. Most of the half-hour programme was an interview with a pop star who has

recently got engaged to a footballer. I am not interested in this couple and their

romance, but it would be better to show these people in your earlier programme

when children are watching.

I understand that the news has to show images that are moving or frightening. However,

if you dont inform people of this before you show the report, I will have to stop watching

your channel.

I look forward to receiving your reply.

Yours faithfully,Mr A.J. Harrison

We interviewed one hundred teenagers on clothes and image and we got some surprising answers.

Designer clothesEverybody thinks that young people insist on wearing Armani, Gucci and Donna Karan, but only half of our survey saidthey would like to have more designer labels. Most of them said they had one designer item which they loved to wear,e.g. a pair of trainers, a jacket, or a sweater. They thought that people who wore designer labels from head to toe wereunimaginative.

Body shapeThe media is full of models, but only a few teenagers thought the models had the perfect body. Most of the teenagerssaid they were too thin and that they didnt look healthy. A few individuals said they would like to be taller or slimmerthemselves. Everybody in the survey knew about the dangers of anorexia and bulimia, but nobody said they had sufferedfrom these disorders. Only one or two teenagers would like to have cosmetic surgery to improve their looks.

Body artThere was a mixed response to the questions on body art. Half of the teenagers said they would like to have a tattoo (this

included as many girls as boys). Very few were interested in body piercing in the tongue or nose, as they thought itlooked ugly and would be painful. (Most of the girls said they had pierced ears, however.) Make-up and contact lenseswere considered acceptable ways of improving your image by all teenagers in the survey.

Movie star marries80-year-old

American actress Gloria White has married the millionaire Italian businessman Carlo

Rossi. The ceremony took place on a quiet beach in the Caribbean with only the couples

closest family present. This is a big change for Gloria, whose two previous weddings

involved very big parties with hundreds of famous faces. Gloria said they wouldnt go on

honeymoon immediately because she is working on a new film.

Reports from Hollywood predicted that this would be Glorias last film because her health had

not been good. In reply to this, she boasted that she had never been fitter and that she was still

the best actress in the world. The film company may not agree with this, as her last two films

were described as very poor. When asked why she had chosen Carlo as her latest husband,

Gloria replied that she was in love and that Carlo was a wonderful man. She added that the

difference in age was no problem.

Gloria is famous for her love of designer labels and expensive jewellery. She once complained

that her first husband (also a millionaire) wanted her mansion back after they had got divorced.

In the end, she kept the house, the cars, and the boats. She also kept the diamond ring from herengagement to her second husband. Im sure that Gloria and Carlo will have a very happy

married life together if he doesnt lose his millions.

Travel and holidays are changing. In the past, people were happy to spend two weeks on the beach orin a city sightseeing. Now people want more from their holiday not just relaxation and sunshine, but areal experience. Activity holidays have become very popular in recent years. These are organized forpeople who want to do an activity like diving, canoeing or windsurfing, or learn a new skill like drawing,painting or speaking a foreign language.

World issues like animal rights and environmental protection have also had an effect on travel. Peopleare keen to see animals in their natural habitat and not in zoos, so wildlife holidays have developedrecently. Animal-lovers can choose from a wide range of wildlife in different continents, includingdolphins, birds and sharks. Travelling to exotic countries can have a negative effect on the localenvironment and the people. Some organizations now offer green holidays which use

environmentally-friendly hotels, and pay local people a fair wage for the work they do.Choosing and booking your holiday is now hi-tech. In the past, people had to go to their nearest travelagency to get information about holidays. Now people can also see adverts for holidays on TV, innewspapers and in magazines. The Internet is a fast and efficient way of booking a trip. People whodont like planning in advance are fans of the Internet, because they can get the latest information atany time of day or night.

NICKS DIARY 17 JUNE

This is the fourteenth day of our journey and things have been quite difficult. We couldnt find fresh

water or food so we had to walk to the lake to try to get some fish. Im also having problems with

some of my companions. I share a tent with Adam who snores all night and Jim, our guide, is

really getting on my nerves. Hes always boasting about his adventures he said that he walked

round the world for charity. That may be true, but he isnt a very experienced guide. Weve been

lost in the forest so many times!

But I mustnt complain. Weve seen so many beautiful sights. Last week was spent in the desert. It

was amazing I had never seen a scorpion until now and it was great to ride a camel again. The

forest is incredible too such a variety of wildlife and plants that I could never see at home. If I had

more time, I would stay in this area and explore some more. In two or three days, were moving on

to the border, where theres a small town.

Jim said he wanted to go nightclubbing in the town if he could! Why travel to a different continent

to do the things you can do at home? For me, travelling is about meeting local people, eating local

food and trying to understand a different culture. If there is a club in the town, I wont go to it

Today was my last day at school and I felt surprisingly emotional. I didnt cry but

I spent a lot of time hugging my friends and

I even kissed a couple of my teachers! The day started with my last English lesson, but Ill becontinuing the subject at university because

I want to be a journalist. We studied a poem about a young person looking into the future, which

was great fun.

All the lessons that followed were quite relaxed

we spent most of the time chatting and asking questions. Some of the teachers gave us

advice and the most important message was to work hard but to have a good time too. One

teacher asked about the first thing we wanted to do when we left. My reply was to dye my hair,

because it had been completely forbidden at school.

I asked my friends how they felt about the future. Most of them said they were optimistic and felt

confident about their plans. My best friend, Lucy, however, said she felt depressed about theenvironment and the problems in the world. She is the only one of my friends who wants to

volunteer

to work in the developing world. The rest of us are divided into two groups those who want to

continue studying and those who are looking for a job. One of the boys boasted that he had

already got a job as a computer programmer and that he would be a millionaire soon.
