The first five years of a child’s life
are critical, the experts tell us. That’s
when their characters are formed.
That’s when caring counts. Someone
to show them how to do things.
Someone just to hold them.
Unfortunately, for many of the world’s
children, that’s just what they don’t get.
And society suffers as a result –
because a deprived child has a lot less
chance of growing up an adjusted
adult. Some of us believe we can
change things – or at least try. And we
need your help. No, don’t reach for
your pocket. It’s not your money – it’s
you we want. In your community there
are dozens of ways you can make
personal contact with kids and make
a difference to their lives. Maybe you’ll
help one to read, to play a game, to
learn to laugh. Maybe you’ll just be
the hand that holds out a little hope...

1 Hundreds of native tribes inhabited Brazil
at the time of the arrival of Europeans, the
earliest going back at least 10,000 years
in the highlands of Minas Gerais. They
5 divided into four main language groups:
the Tupi-Guarani, the Gê, the Carib
and the Arawak. The Tupi -Guarani
predominated along the Atlantic coast;
the Gê peoples lived on the open central 
10 plateau. Caribs and Arawaks, who were
more advanced in technology, especially
pottery making, lived in the Amazon
basin. The most agressive were the
Caribs, who were warlike and sometimes 
15 practiced canibalism, as did the Tupi
living on the seacoast. Most Brazilian
Indians dwelled in temporary villages.

Seventeen years later, in 1993, onan October
evening, I was sitting comfortably at home flipping
through the television channels and I heard the local
news anchor say, “Did you ever dream of running
away with the circus? Well, now you don’t have to run
away. Right after our commercial break we will take
you on a visit to the first school where any more-or-less
average person can learn the flying trapeze.”
Immediately, he had my undivided attention. The five-
minute segment that followed reported that Stephan
Gaudreau, a trapeze artist who had recently been
performing at Circus-Circus in Reno, with the Flying
Angels, had established a training program open to
the public at the San Francisco School of Circus Arts.
The next Wednesday I went to the old gymnasium that
housed the circus school to observe the beginners class
and satisfy my curiosity. 
(UNEMAT)
II) Text Comprehension

YOU REVEAL YOUR MOST EMBARRASSING MOMENTS
MMYSTERYYSTERY GGUESTUEST
1 My neighbor’s mother was in the
hospital. It had been years since I’d
seen her, so I decided to pay her a
visit. My neighbor told me that his 
5 mother had gotten a little senile, so I
didn’t know if she would remember me.
I knocked on the door and went into her
room. I said, “Hello, Mrs. Billings. How
are you feeling?” She said, “Hello, I’m 
10 not Mrs. Billings.” I said, “Yes, you are.
How are you?” She replied, “I’m getting
better.” I told her I had seen her son,
and she just nodded.
I could see our conversation
15 wasn’t going anywhere, so I said, “I
hope you get well soon, Mrs. Billings”
and started out the door. She thanked
me for coming and told me again that
she was not Mrs. Billings. On my way 
20 down the hall I ran into a nurse and
asked her if any of Mrs. Billings’s
children had come to see her. “Yes”,
she replied. “They came to see her this
morning when she checked out!”
Patti Lewis, Redbook Magazine – UEM
The old folks who complain that
children are so spoiled nowadays actually
have a valid point, according to a new
study. The report believes that in the past
children often had to share a room or even
a bed with siblings, but now most children
have their own rooms and may not have
any siblings or only one. As a result, they
never learn to compromise or to think of
others. Children with their own rooms were
less likely to give up a seat on the bus and
were more stubborn and argumentative in
confrontations.

People stay healthy when they eat only
the amount of food they need and when they
exercise. However, many Americans eat too
much, and they seldom exercise. In fact, a
surprising 54 percent of American adults are
overweight. The problem in the United States
may be found in the environment. To begin
with, Americans have too much food
available. For example, many restaurants are
open from early in the morning to late at night.
Second, many Americans eat foods that are
too high in fat and too low in fiber, and some
even snack all day long. Third, modern
conveniences and technology, such as power
lawn mowers and the internet, make it easy
for Americans to remain inactive and avoid
exercise. Doctors have suggested some
solutions to the problem. Americans need to
eat foods that are low in fat and high in fiber,
such as grains, fruits, and vegetables. They
also need to exercise for twenty minutes a day,
three times a week. By following this plan,
Americans can improve their overall health
and set good examples for their children.

Diabetes affects millions of people in
North America, almost half of whom do not
realize they have the disease. At risk are
people who have a family history of
diabetes, are obese, have a history of large
birth weight and are over age forty.
People with diabetes do not convert
food into energy the same way most people
do. If a person without diabetes eats a piece
of candy, for example, the pancreas will
produce insulin which then converts those
carbohydrates into glucose or sugar. That
glucose is then used by the cells for energy.
However, glucose is not automatically
accepted into the cells. It requires a specific
key – insulin – to be converted into energy.
Without insulin, glucose is locked out of the
cells, causing the body to build up extra
supplies of it. In people with diabetes, who
do not produce insulin, this can eventually
lead to hyperglycemia or diabetic coma,
also known as high blood sugar.

For 250 million children, today is a
workday, not a school day. Children as
young as five years old are part of the
global workforce. In factories and in fields,
children work up to 15 hours a day, seven
days a week. Matches, rugs, soccer balls,
leather goods, paper cups, toys, shoes,
fireworks – all of these products are made
by tiny hands.
Child labor is one of the worst forms of
exploitation. Child workers are deprived of
schooling, beaten and sexually abused, and
crippled by work-related illnesses and
injuries. Children are sold to employers who
pay impoverished families for the use of
their children, often to young adulthood.
In Brazil, the Solidarity Center is
working with unions, government
organizations, businesses, and community
groups to promote worker rights, racial
equality, and social justice.
The Solidarity Center is fighting child
labor worldwide. Thanks to Solidarity
Center programs, more kids are staying in
schools.

When hiccups won’t stop
Imagine hiccups that don’t stop – for
hours, even days. Then the nuisance turns into
a nightmare. Though relatively uncommon,
chronic intractable hiccups can be brought
on by a variety of infections, injuries, and
metabolic disorders. In some cases, doctors
prescribe dozens of different remedies, from
narcotics to anesthetics; yet the hiccups
persist.
Now neurologists have discovered that a
drug commonly used to treat high blood
pressure can relieve endless hiccuping when
nothing else works. The drug, nifedipine,
prevents calcium from entering muscle cells,
where the mineral may act as a stimulant.
One hiccup sufferer who found relief on
nifedipine tried to stop taking it after one,
three and six months. Each time, her hiccups
returned.

Beware of horror films!
Beware! Too much television
watching can be dangerous. A study
at Harvard and Tufts University, in
America, has confirmed that remaining
5 in front of the television is one of the
most important reasons for childhood
obesity. In fact, you not only do less
physical activity but are also tempted
to eat the things publicized on television.
10 In addition to this, the study shows that
horror films make you fat. According
to these researchers, “horror” makes you
eat more because of the tension
involved. In one test, 30 women ate
15 twice as much popcorn watching a
horror film than those who watched a
non-horror film. So for those who
wouldn’t like to increase their weight,
watch out for horror films!

Made in Japan
Every year, Americans salute more and
more American flags that weren’t made in
America. Flags that bear the stars and stripes
and little tags reading Made in Japan or Taiwan
or Hong Kong.
Those flags aren’t the only things with
such labels. As foreign goods flood the market,
American industries shut down. As industries
shut down, people lose jobs.
When people lose their jobs, they can’t
buy the things you make. Chances are if Betsy
Ross (the Philadelphia seamstress who made
the first American flag for George Washington)
were alive today, she’d be standing in line for
herunemployment check.
So help yourself and help us by looking for
the union label in everything you buy. You can
find our label in women’s and children’s
garments. This label stands for the creativity of
American design, the skill of American
workmanship, the importance of American jobs.

Lost, Alone, and Injured 
on a Mountain
1 Yesterday Gary Smith celebrated
his twenty-first birthday, but he’s lucky
to be alive. In March this year, he was
mountain climbing, when he lost his
5 way and spent 16 hours in subzero
temperatures.
“My friends laughed at me for
having so much survival equipment, but
it saved my life.”
10 On the first night, the weather
was so bad that it tore his new
mountain tent to pieces, so he moved
into a Youth Hostel. He left the hostel at
10:00 the next morning, but that afternoon
15 he was in trouble. “I fell off a rock and
broke my left leg. I couldn’t move.”
Mountain rescue teams went out
to look for Gary, and found him at
9:00 the next morning. A helicopter
20 took him to a hospital, where he
needed several operations. “Next time
I’ll go with my friends, not on my own!”
he joked.
