PALEOENVIRONMENTS
1. Complete the text below with the words given.
microfossils melting future environmental changes
pollutant paleoenvironmental organisms past fossilized
paleontology predictive geology humans coastal
(a) (b)
One of the basic tenets of ______________________ in the present is the key to the ______________________.
(c)
In the present context this simply means that if we document the distribution of ______________________
(d)
today, and have some degree of understanding of what combination of ______________________variables
controls those distributions, then we can use this information to reconstruct past environments by using
5 the (e) __________________________ representatives of the modern organisms as (f) __________________________
(g)
indicators. This classic use of ______________________, along with biostratigraphy, is of great signicance in
the search for oil and gas.
In recent years, however, with an increased awareness of how (h) ______________________ are aecting the
natural world, in many cases for the worst, micropaleontologists are increasingly turning that basic tenet
10 around to the past, which is now believed to be the key to the (i) ______________________. In other words, if we
can understand how organisms in the past responded to environmental (j) ______________________ then we
can use that information to predict how future natural or anthropogenic environmental change might aect
the Earths biota.
Interpreting paleoenvironments with microfossils is, therefore, a topic that demonstrates the
(k)
15 relevance of these aspects of ______________________. It shows how knowledge obtained via
study of modern organisms can be used to infer environmental conditions in the past. It also
demonstrates the (l) ______________________ side of science; for example, what might happen if a particular
(m)
______________________ is introduced to an estuary, or, on a much larger scale, what might happen to
(n)
______________________ ecosystems if sea-level rose as a result of anthropogenic global warming and
20 subsequent collapse and (o) ______________________ of polar ice sheets.

The main dierence between DNA and RNA is the (a) ______________________ present in the molecules.
While the sugar present in an RNA molecule is (b) ______________________ , the sugar present in a molecule of
DNA is (c) _____________________ . Deoxyribose is the same as ribose, except that the former has one more
OH. DNA does not usually exist as a single (d) _____________________ , but instead as a tightly-associated pair
5 of molecules. These two long strands entwine like vines, in the shape of a double (e) ___________________ . This
arrangement of DNA strands is called (f) _______________________ . The asymmetric ends of DNA strands
are referred to as the 5 (ve (g) _____________________ ) and 3 (three prime) ends. One of the
major dierences between DNA and RNA is the sugar, with 2-deoxyribose being replaced by the alternative
(h)
_____________________ sugar ribose in RNA. The four bases found in DNA are adenine (abbreviated A),
10 cytosine (C), guanine (G) and (i) _____________________ (T). A fth pyramidine base, called
(j)
_____________________ (U), usually takes the place of thymine in RNA and diers from thymine by
lacking a (k) _____________________ group on its ring.

ICT AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF CITIES

1. Read the following text.
The ICT behind cities of the future

Smart Cities are an innovative concept that can improve peoples lives, while also helping the
planet. The communications industry has the experience and capabilities to make city living
more ecient.
Cities are growing like never before. Already, 50 percent of the worlds people live in cities. Asia is home to
5 half of this population, and by 2025, more than 1.3 billion people will be added to urban areas, with nearly
400 million in India and China alone. Smart Cities will help make this growth sustainable. The concept
uses information and communications technology (ICT) to improve the services that support urban
dwelling security, healthcare, and transport for citizens; improved and more cost eective power supply
for industries; remote working and e-commerce for businesses; and entertainment and communications
10 for individuals. Smart City technology can also help to reduce the environmental impact of urbanization.
ICT can be used to monitor energy consumption and emissions across sectors, to improve accountability
in the use of energy and carbon. It can oer new ways of operating, learning, living, working and travelling,
and help apply smart and integrated approaches to the energy management of systems and processes. With
these tools, the ICT sector could reduce its own CO2 emissions signicantly as well as gain nancial benets
15 in the form of new business. ICT can create huge savings of approximately 600 billion through improved
energy eciency across all sectors. The concept is already being put into action in several emerging markets,
notably in China, India and the Middle East.

2. In groups, create your own Smart City. Think about the planning and management (public safety,
smarter buildings and urban planning), infrastructure (energy and water, environmental solutions
and transportation) and human services (social programs, healthcare and education). Present your
project to the school community.

the (h) novels/novels moralising and didactic objectives, does
not coincide with the opinions he expresses in the texts he wrote
in his own name. In the (i) latter/letter the English are described as being good tradesmen, meticulous and
demanding intellectuals, xenophobic tourists, ignorant of foreign languages and disdainful of everything
20 that is not British. Politically he (j) saw/sawed England as an imperialist country with eets that dominated
the seas, colonies on all ve continents, administrators everywhere and missionaries present in every kind
of tribe. To the Ea of this (k) journalist/journalistic or epistol prose, the English aristocracy was the
(l)
prouder/proudest and (m) most/more conceited in the world, while the middle classes were the most
practical and utilitarian that had ever (n) conducted/conduct the destiny of a nation. As far as religion was

an order that did not conform to their strict morality, while English homes were the (p) refuge/refugee
of families that supposed themselves to be the most Christian on the face of the planet. Having said that,
we do encounter a more balanced attitude in his more mature and thoughtful ction. His feelings towards

Vespers
When evening falls across our streets

And sullen melancholy lls the air,
The Tagus, the tang, the shadows and bustle
Bring me an absurd desire to suer.
5 The sky hangs low and seems all hazy;

The gas from the streetlamps makes me queasy;
The tumult of buildings, chimneys and people
Is cloaked in a dullish, Londinish hue.
Oh lucky travelers in hired coaches

10 Now hieing to the railway station! Countries
And exhibitions le past me: Madrid,
Paris, Berlin, St. Petersburg, the world!
The timber frames of future buildings

Resemble cages for keeping animals;

From beam to beam at the sound of the bell.

1. Read the following article by Simon Mundie, a BBC sports reporter.
Doping and corruption to top 2014 sports news agenda

Sporting highlights in 2014 include the Brazil World Cup, Glasgow hosting the
Commonwealth Games and the Winter Olympics.
However, as well as all the action on the pitch, there are several issues that
look certain to dominate the sports news agenda. Doping, corruption and
5 women in sport are all likely to be in the headlines.
From Ben Johnson in the 1988 Olympic Games to Lance Armstrongs seven
Tour De France wins, doping in sport has long been something the authorities
have tried to tackle. In 2013, the spectre of drugs in sport came to the fore,
with several of Jamaicas track and eld athletes testing positive for a banned
10 substance, as well as two of sprintings biggest names: Tyson Gay and Asafa
Powell.
The World Anti-Doping Agency has been criticised for not enforcing rigorous
testing regimes in certain countries around the world. The pressure on
specic sports to take the threat of doping more seriously is set to rise too. Lance Armstrong said he used
15 performance-enhancing drugs during his Tour de France wins.
Corruption in sport is another issue that may dominate in 2014. Recently there were claims football matches
in Britain were being targeted by overseas betting syndicates. Cricket is another sport to have been implicated
in recent years. Several sports will see 2014 as a time to raise their prole, even during a World Cup year.
Womens sport in particular will want to keep pushing to gain
20 recognition. At the end of 2013 a government committee was set
up to look at why more women didnt take up sport after London
2012, and it found that 60% of people want to see more coverage
of womens sports. Part of the focus for equality is directed
towards governing bodies, where female representation is often
25 underwhelming. The ght for recognition will certainly continue,
but womens sport does appear to have the wind in its sails as a
new year looms.

AS BYATT
1. Read the following excerpt of a short story by AS Byatt.
Sea Story
He was born beside the sea almost literally, for his
mothers birth pangs began when she was walking
along the shoreline under a pale sun gathering
buttery shells. He was born in Filey, on the east
5 Yorkshire coast, a shing town with a perfect sweep
of pale golden beach, crumbling grassy clis, and
the unique Filey Brigg, a mixture of many rocks,
beginning at Carr Naze, and stretching out in a long
peninsula into the North Sea, full of rock pools and
10 rivulets, harsh and tempting at once. His father was
an oceanographer, the son of an oceanographer who studied the deep currents of the North Sea. His mother
taught English at a high school and wrote erce little poems about waves and weather. They took him walking
along the beach, and scrambling on the Brigg and shing from rocks and with lines over the side of rowing
boats. The family had almost a collection of bottles picked up by sailing vessels and along coastlines. Several
15 of these were numbered bottles, sealed and weighted to bob along the seabed, designed by the Marine Science
project to map the movement of currents around the coast. One a rather sinister-looking early 20th-century
medicine bottle contained a lined sheet of paper. This read Dear Mary and was followed by the phrase I
love you, I love you, I love you repeated until it lled both sides. It was meticulously signed Robert Fisher,
with an address in Hull; the house turned out to have been demolished by bombs in 1944.

SAVANNAH BROWN
1. Do some research to nd out the denition of Slam Poetry.
2. Read the following slam poem Savannah Brown, a 17-year-old girl, wrote in response to another
poem which depicted girls in a very negative way.
A Slam Poem
When I rst learned that no one could ever love me more than
me, a world of happiness previously unseen was discovered
because somewhere along the line of aging and scrutiny and
time, I was taught to despise myself. ()
5 I was 13 the rst time I was embarrassed about my body, of

course it might not be the last, and I remember stung my
bra in the morning, tears stinging my eyes, hoping, praying to
something that I could look beautiful enough today, braces
and all, for the ruthless boys who mercilessly told me I was
10 worthless because my boobs werent big enough.
And I would go home and put on a sweatshirt with my eyes closed, deny myself the right to be shown myself
because I didnt dare want to insinuate beauty in regards to something so insulting as my body. ()
You cant surrender to them. () And you dont need any miracle cream to keep your passions smooth, hair
free, or diet pills to slim your kindness down. And when you start to drown in these petty expectations, youve
15 gotta re-examine the miracle of your existence because you are worth so much more than your waistline. ()
But sometimes we forget that because we live in a world where the media pulls us from the womb, nurses us,
and teaches us our rst words: skinny, pretty, skinny, pretty, girls, soft, quiet, pretty, boys, manly, muscles,
pretty. But I dont care whether its your gender, your looks, your weight, your skin, or where your love lies.
None of that matters because standards dont dene you.
20 You dont live to meet the credentials established by a madman. Youre a goddamned treasure whether you
want to believe it or not. And maybe thats what everyone should start looking for.

SLAM POETRY COMPETITION

A slam poem is a poetry competition in which poets perform original work alone or in teams before
an audience, which serves as judge. The work is judged as much on the manner and enthusiasm of its
performance as its content or style, and many slam poems are not intended to be read silently from the
page.
Why not have a Slam Poetry Competition in your class or school?
1. The main elements of slam poetry are:
a. Rhythm although it is written in free verse it has a denite

driving rhythm which keeps the poem moving from one line
to the next;
b. Repetition slam poems use repetition a lot: the same word,

phrase or expression is repeated throughout the poem;
c. Rhyme slam poems do not have a specic rhyme scheme but

the audiences ear must easily catch the main idea or theme.
2. How to write a slam poem:
a. Select a topic to write your poem about. Then begin writing your poem. Usually spoken word
poetry is often highly politicised, drawing upon racial, economic, and gender injustices as well
as current events for subject manner.
b. Research new slang words or relevant modern contextual references and use them for more
impact. Do not be too formal in your presentation since formality is the antithesis to slam
poetry.
c. Read your poem out loud to a friend who will give you honest feedback.
3. Tips:
a. Write about something you are passionate about;
b. Be as authentic as possible;
c. Practise as many times as possible;
d. Do not over-use (try to avoid it!) oensive or sexual imagery;
e. Do not over-rehearse your poetry; you should always feel it from the inside.

But tell them they must be tidy Theyre welcome in the neighbourhood
They must respect what weve planted But if theyre out of order
10 They should not take us for granted 40 Show them to the border
They should practise what they preach And if it does start raining
When theyre lying on the beach Tell them o if theyre complaining
15 The tourists are coming to play. 45 The tourists are coming I say.
Because our land is sunny Tell them that we love living

They come here with their money And money cant buy everything
20 We will not rant and rave 50 Call them names like fools and criminals
If they will behave If they dont like animals
We will not be bitter Tell them if they cant keep the peace
25 If they dont drop their litter 55 That tourism must cease
If they dont mess about Tell them not to be greedy

We will not kick them out And be careful where they wee wee
30 The tourists are coming to stay. 60 The tourists are coming this way.

an epic saga about a Bangladeshi family living in the UK.
See those kids down there? Karim stood at the window but Nazneen would
not go and stand with him. Those kids, theyre all users.
She did not understand.
Theyre users, addicts.
5 What is it? Users?
Theyre all on heroin. All of that lot.
Drugs.
This estate is full of it. You have got no idea. He came away from the window. Some of them are, right, twelve years
old. Know how it got this way? Ten years ago, this place was clean, yeah? There was just Tippex, or gas. A bit of weed.
10 Ganja. But then, what happened, this area started going up. And the City started coming out towards Brick Lane. You
got grant money coming in, regeneration money. Property prices going up, new people moving in, businesses and that.
And we started to do well, man.
He sat down at her sewing machine. Thats the problem. That is the start of it. No coincidence. Its like what happened
in America when the blacks got organised. Youve got to keep them down, keep them quiet. The FBI the government
15 they got together with the Maa, and ooded the blacks with drugs, set them up with all the guns and stu, so they can
just get high and shoot each other. As long as it stays in the ghettoes, man, theyre not bothered.
Nazneen wondered if her English had failed her, misled her. She said, The government gave the drugs?
Know what Im saying? said Karim. You have to ask the questions.
For a while he looked inside his magazine. He rubbed his beard, cupped his chin in his hand, and tested the bristles.
20 Not like they couldnt stop it, if they wanted to. Everyone knows the dealers. He gave a short, bitter laugh. Its not hard.
The dealers are the ones the kids look up to. With the ash cars and all the gold. But, know what Im thinking?
Im thinking He shook his head as if it could not be true. Im thinking as long as theyre drug addicts, they stay away
from religion. And the government its more scared of Islam than heroin.

WRITING A BLURB
1. Use your English dictionary to nd the meaning of blurb.
2. Read the following book blurbs.
3. Choose a book to your liking and write a short blurb. These tips may help you:
a. Make it short!
Write only a few lines or paragraphs. It should arouse curiosity and promise a good read.
b. Make it punchy!
Book blurbs tend to use emotive words. Find out what your reader wants, and write a blurb that
shows how youll deliver.
c. End with a reason for the reader to buy/read the book.
This can be in the form of a statement or a provocative question.
d. Dont confuse a short book blurb with a short synopsis!
A synopsis is a summary of the whole story - beginning, middle and end. A back cover blurb does
NOT give the game away! It stimulates interest and curiosity and therefore entices the reader to buy
the book.

to convey.
Angelas word She didnt know why,

45 and she didnt know how,
When Angela was very young, But she wanted her life to end;
Age two or three or so, So she begged Whoever put her here
Her mother and her father To take her back again.
Taught her never to say NO. And then she heard, from deep inside,
5 They taught her that she must agree 50 A voice that was soft and low;
With everything they said, It only said a single word
And if she didnt, she was spanked And the word it said was... NO.
And sent upstairs to bed. From that moment on, Angela knew
So Angela grew up to be Exactly what she had to do.
10 A most agreeable child; 55 Her life depended on that word,
She was never angry So this is what her loved ones heard:
And she was never wild; NO, I just dont want to;
She always shared, she always cared, NO, I dont agree;
She never picked a ght, NO, thats yours to handle;
15 And no matter what her parents said, 60 NO, thats wrong for me;
She thought that they were right. NO, I wanted something else;
Angela the Angel did very well in school NO, that hurt a lot!
And, as you might imagine, NO, Im tired, and NO, Im busy,
she followed every rule; And NO, Id rather not!
20 Her teachers said she was so well-bred, 65 Well, her family found it shocking,
So quiet and so good, Her friends reacted with surprise;
But how Angela felt inside But Angela was dierent,
They never understood. you could see it in her eyes;
Angela had lots of friends For theyve held no meek submission
25 Who liked her for her smile; 70 Since that night three years ago
They knew she was the kind of gal When Angela the Angel
Whod go the extra mile; Got permission to say NO.
And even when she had a cold Today Angelas a person rst,
And really needed rest, then a mother and a wife.
30 When someone asked her if shed help 75 She knows where she begins and ends,
She always answered Yes She has a separate life.
When Angela was thirty-three, She has talents and ambitions,
she was a lawyers wife. She has feelings, needs and goals.
She had a home and family, She has money in the bank and
35 and a nice suburban life. 80 An opinion at the polls.
She had a little girl of four And to her boy and girl she says,
And a little boy of nine, Its nice when we agree;
And if someone asked her how she felt But if you cant say NO, youll never grow
She always answered, Fine. To be all youre meant to be.
40 But one cold night near Christmas time 85 Because I know Im sometimes wrong
When her family was in bed, And because I love you so,
She lay awake as awful thoughts Youll always be my angels
went spinning through her head; Even when you tell me NO.

And what thou wert in me had never ed.
5 Nay, I had xed the moments of thy beauty
Thy ebbing smile, thy kisss readiness,
And memory had taught my heart the duty
To know thee ever at that deathlessness.
But when I came where thou wert laid, and saw

And the encroaching grass, with casual aw,
Framing the stone to age where was thy name,
I knew not how to feel, nor what to be

WOMEN CELEBRATING WOMEN

1. Read the following excerpt from Orchids to You Dear, a short story by Fiona Cooper.
She dreamed of oating up the aisle in frothy white, to stand beside a dark-suited gure. He slipped a golden band onto
her nger, but when she turned to look at him, his face was never clear. It was her favourite dream, but she knew enough
to keep it to herself.
We all have our gifts, and yours is The Brain, Hilary, her mother had told her rmly, guiding her away from dates and
5 dances and the like. Home and school had worn her success like a prize rosette, and she trotted o to university with a
stack of leather-bound prizes and dire warnings about hard work, early nights and regular meals.
She saw him at the rst lecture, and thrilled at his cultured voice. Black-jacketed on the podium, he was on a dierent
plane from the student body, silent and scribbling at his feet. Everybody liked Professor Harrison.
Call me Mark, he urged her in his tutorials. She had been rapt at his every phrase, pen ready to score out any word or
10 even a comma in her essays to please him.
A matter of months later, he chose her to be his wife. He told her she was beautiful. Her mother snied throughout the
service. Her eyes said mutton that wants to be taken for lamb and my poor impressionable baby. She took the rst train home.
Hilary put it all behind her. For she loved his dapper brilliance my husband the professor. And now her heart anticipated
his every wish, eager to change the slightest gesture, for how could he be wrong?

WHAT IS MUSIC?
What is music? Its what comes out of the speakers when we play a CD on our stereo. Its what we hear on the
radio. Music is singers singing and musicians playing. Music is a sound that we enjoy hearing. Is this a proper
answer to the question What is music?
If I asked What is a car?, you could answer by pointing at a large object moving up the street and saying Its
one of those. But this may not be a satisfactory answer. A full explanation of what a car is would mention
petrol, internal combustion engines, brakes, suspension, transmissions and other mechanical things
that make a car go. And we dont just want to know what a car is; we also want to know what a car is for. An
explanation of what a car is for would include the facts that there are people and other things (like shopping)
inside cars and that the purpose of cars is to move people and things from one place to another.
By analogy, a good answer to the question What is music? will say something about the detailed mechanics
of music: instruments, notes, scales, rhythm, tempo, chords, harmony, bass and melody. This matches up
with the mechanical portion of the car explanation. Its harder to answer the What is it for? part of the
question. A simple answer is that music is enjoyable it makes us feel good. It creates emotions, or interacts
with the emotions we already feel, and sometimes, it makes us want to dance.
Philip Dorrell, What is Music? Solving a Scientic Mystery, (2005)
The best-known types of music in Western cultures are:
Blues Pop
Classical Punk
Country Rap
Electronic Reggae
Jazz R&B
Latin Rock
Metal Folk

You take a deep breath and you walk through the doors

You say Hi to your friends you aint seen in a while
Try and stay out of everybodys way
5 Its your freshman year and youre gonna be here
For the next four years in this town
Hoping one of those senior boys will wink at you and say
You know, I havent seen you around before.
Cause when youre fteen and somebody tells you they love you
10 Youre gonna believe them
And when youre fteen
Feeling like theres nothing to gure out
Well is count to ten, take it in
This is life before you know who youre gonna be
15 Fifteen
You sit in class next to red-headed Abigail

And soon enough youre best friends
Laughing at the other girls who think theyre so cool
Well be out of here as soon as we can
20 And then youre on your very rst date and hes got a car
And youre feeling like ying
And your mammas waiting up
And youre thinking hes the one
And youre dancing round the room when the night ends, when the night ends
25 Cause when youre fteen and somebody tells you they love you
Youre gonna believe them
And when youre fteen and your rst kiss makes your head spin around
But in your life youll do things greater than dating the boy on the football team
But I didnt know it at fteen
30 When all you wanted was to be wanted

Wish you could go back and tell yourself what you know now

as compassionate, sensitive and strong. How does the director
show Solomon as a multi-dimensional man who is loving,
caring, and committed?
2.2 Part of the enslavement process was to break the will of the
African, remove his/her name and force the person to live
under the construct of another persons name and denition.
What do you think kept Solomon from falling into despair while
living in this horric situation?
2.3 The lm shows great brutality and beauty. What, in the lm, showed you the power and genius of
black people?

2.6 What do you think Solomon was thinking when he decided to sing Roll Jordan Roll?

2.8 Why was the scene with the Indians important to the story?

1.1 What do you think a gang is? What do you base this on?
1.2 How is a gang dierent from other kinds of group, for example, a friendship group, followers of a
football team, etc.? Think about how individuals within those dierent groups work together, and
what they have to do to be part of that group.

READER: You should read quickly, carefully and with

expression;
COACH: Read along silently and help the reader with hard
words and mistakes.
5. You must follow these rules:

Talk only to your partner and only about the PALS activity;
Keep your voice low;
Cooperate with your partner;
Try your best.
