Learner A

Sacred pythons

One day a very long time ago some of Naayire people went hunting. They walked and walked in the bush but found nothing. They were very far from home. “We must sleep in the bush,”- the chief said, - “We must find a good place to sleep”. The hunters were not afraid to sleep in the bush but they knew: animals sometimes killed sleeping hunters. And there were some bad people too, in the bush.

The hunters came to a place with big trees round it. They decided to rest and sleep on the grass. They didn’t make a fire and ate only some nuts which they carried in their bags. Then they went to sleep. All of them were tired. They slept soundly. They didn’t hear that their enemies were coming nearer and nearer to them.

But in one of the trees above the sleeping men something moved and fell down on the head of a young hunter. He jumped up and cried: a big python was on his head! The Naayire people got up quickly and saw the enemies round them. A fight began. Soon the enemies ran away and that was the end of the fight.

The Naayire hunters came up to their chief to talk about the fight.

“What made you jump up?”- the chief asked.

“It was a python,” – he said, - “It fell on my head but it did not kill me!”

Then the chief said: “That python saved our lives. Pythons will be sacred animals in our country”.

Even today the Naayire people love pythons. If you go into their houses in the rainy season, you will find a python there. The pythons never harm anyone; they don’t eat even the chickens!

python-a very large snake that kills animals for food

hunter – a person or an animal that hunts animals for food or for sport

enemy-a person who hates or opposes another person

Theme: Unit: The Natural World

Task 1. Discuss the questions in a class.

1. Our planet is running out of time. Why? What does it mean?

2. What are the problems that we may face in the future because of the using up of all the resources?

Task 2. Read the article and answer the questions based on the reading passage. Don’t forget to go back to the passage whenever necessary to find or confirm your answers.

Competing for Resources

The resources of any one environment are limited. Depending on which plants and animals share the environment, there may not be enough of everything to go around. All organisms need water, food and shelter to stay alive. These resources are beneficial, which means they are good for the organisms. When an environment is low on any of these things, organisms must compete for them. Those who get to the resources first have the best chance of survival. Being without water, food or shelter for very long is detrimental, which means it is harmful to organisms.

The resources in an area determine how big the plant and animal populations can be. Sometimes there are too many living things in an area. The weakest of the populations will not be able to get the resources they need. As the weak die out, the populations get smaller. Finally, the area’s resources recover and can support them again.

Sometimes people will capture members of large animal populations and move them. They take them to another location with less competition. This helps the animals survive.

Sometimes the government will allow hunting of large animal populations. Deer and rabbits can be a good food source for people. When there are too many of these animals in an area, They sometimes come into the cities looking for food. They often cause trouble. Hunting keeps the number of animals under control.

Answer the questions.

1) Why do organisms sometimes have to compete for resources?

Task 1. Read the text. What campaign did Janine Licare start? Why?

Take action!

If you care about the environment, you will really enjoy this month’s newsletter. Let’s go to Costa Rica and see how one determined teenager has tried to change the world.

Janine Licare was only nine years old when she decided to take action. She was worried because the rainforest around her home in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica, was disappearing. The animals and birds were disappearing too. So, together with a friend, Janine started a campaign to protect her local environment. They called it Kids Saving the Rainforest.

The aims of Kids Saving the Rainforest are to teach children about the rainforest and to help the animals that live there, especially the endangered Monoo Titi monkey.

Janine has achieved a lot. She has

 raised more than $50,000

 planted over 4,800 trees

 found over 250 volunteers to work with her

 helped many injured birds and animals

 started a variety of different projects, such as ‘Adopt-a-tree’

 worked with other schoolchildren around the world

 developed an environmental library and research centre.

Janine has appeared in several magazines, and she has been on the National Geographic TV channel as well. She has also developed a special website: www.kidssavingtherainforest.org. ‘It is very important that we save the rainforest. If the rainforest disappears, then so will our planet.’ Janine Licare

Task 2. Read the text again. For each sentence write TRUE, FALSE, or NOT GIVEN (not given in the text).
