Are you a good saver?

Listen to Ross and Anne and complete the table. Then listen again and complete Ross’s advice.

Future SimpleFuture Perfect Simple

1. You will have to .

2. You will need to .

3. You will use the budget sheet to .

4. You will have to keep .

5. You will have to categorize your .

6. You’ll be able .

Complete the table.

My expenses My income My savings By 2020, I will have saved…

Grammar peek Future Simple vs. Future Perfect Simple

What sentence expresses a completed action before sometime in the future?

What sentence expresses a voluntary action?

a. I won’t waste my money in the future.

b. I won’t have saved a lot of money before I’m 30.

Use the Future Simple to express a promise or a voluntary action.

Use the Future Perfect Simple to express the idea that something will occur

before another action or specific time in the future. (will have + past participle)

Examples: Mark will sell his car to pay for his tuition.

Mark will have paid his tuition before the semester ends.

Attitude & Values

Is it important to be disciplined to be able to

save money? Do you think it is possible to become rich if

you don’t control your spending habits?

Read and explain these proverbs:

“There is no luck except where there is

discipline.”“It’s not the work that’s hard, it’s the

discipline.”“While the blanket is short, learn to curl for

you to fit in it.”

Word for wordFirst, try to explain the new words on your own. Then find the definitions in the dictionary.

• budget • fund • income • expense • revenue

35Module 2 Project “Economy”

Writing practiceComplete the budget sheet in your notebook. Compare it with your classmates' sheets and discuss the differences.

Category Budget Amount Actual Amount DifferenceIncomeWages/Other incomeSubtotal:Rent/Food/Clothing/OtherSubtotal:NET Income

Read on BudgetsRead and choose from the budget types to match their descriptions. What types of budgets are appropriate for the individuals, business, or government organizations?Revenue budgets Incremental budgets Capital expenditure budgets Incremental budgets

The funds within this type of budget are allocated to departments or organizational units. The managers of these units then allocate funds to activities as they see fit. It is developed from the previous budget. Each period's budget begins by using the last period as a reference point.

This type of budget is a forecast, because it is based on the projection of future sales. Company’s competitors, advertising budget, sales force effectiveness and other relevant factors must be taken into consideration. An estimate of sales volume must be made. Based on estimates of demand at various prices, an appropriate sales price must be selected.

This type of budgets programs investments in property, buildings and major equipments. These are typically substantial expenses both in terms of magnitude and duration. The magnitude and duration of these investments can justify the development of separate budgets for these expenses. It allows forecasting future capital requirements, to keep on top of important capital projects, and to ensure that adequate cash is available to meet these expenses.

This type of budget shows the primary activities undertaken by an individual/organization to achieve its goals and allocates a specific amount to each. Particular attention has to be given to fixed expenses.

Team upRead the saving money tips that Ross gave to Anne. Then in teams, write more tips of your own. The team that writes more and better tips will win. For example:• Do not have more than one credit card and use it only for emergencies. • Never go shopping on an empty stomach.• Eat less in restaurants and more at home. • Hire more efficient and less expensive TV cable/satellite and cellular plans.

Project@HandIn teams, decide what you would like to save money for. Then create a budget and develop strategies for saving, which will allow you to achieve your goal: a graduation party, new school supplies, going on a trip, etc.Write about the project “Our Budget” on the Project Report section on pp. 76, 77.

Interview your classmates to find out their ways of saving money. Find out who among your classmates is the best at saving and why.Explain to your classmates why it is important for an individual, a school, a city, or a country to have a well-balanced budget.

This section deals with grammatical structures that appear in the lesson.Introducing grammar consciousness-raising tasks in Grammar Peek sections of the series we intend to combine the development of knowledge about problematic features with the provision for meaning-focused use of the target language. It promotes both proficiency gains and negotiated interaction in the participants.Activities in this section are created thinking about how the grammar point is used in everyday situations, then recreating some of these situations in the classroom in the form of dialogues or controlled discussions.After Ss are asked questions or given examples, which encourage them to infer the rules, grammar structures are clearly explained through notes and examples.Students should find examples of the grammatical structures in the texts or produce examples of their own.

This section introduces game-type activities which should be performed in teams or groups. The activities in this section are interesting and motivating. They include guessing, matching, drawing, writing tasks and discussions. Students should be encouraged to use the lexical items and grammatical structures presented in the lesson. Examples are provided to facilitate students’ performance.

This section enables students to work individually in the classroom or at home on some practical and motivating tasks like: interviews, posters, photos, recipes, descriptions, stories, formal documents, letters and research.

Lexical competence is a central part of communicative competence.In this section a variety of drills, collocations, idioms, phrasal verbs, synonyms, lexical phrases and semantic associations is introduced.The purpose of these activities is to familiarize students with a variety of words, expressions and collocations introduced in the texts and dialogs within the lesson. New lexical items are illustrated or explained through examples in every lesson.Vocabulary is just as important as grammar for communicating in a language.Activities in this section encourage students to explain the meaning of a word, pronounce it correctly, find synonyms and make sentences using them.New words are not presented in isolation and students are not encouraged to learn them by simple memorization. New vocabulary items are presented in contexts rich enough to provide clues to meaning and students are exposed to items they have to learn.Exercises include learning words through listening, reading and writing practices.

Lesson 1 Could Mars have been inhabited in the past?

Time to start

Grammar peek Modal verbs for past probability

use modal verbs to talk about past probabilities and discuss if Mars could have been inhabited.

Get ready to…

What do these sentences express?• The orientation of the Earth poles shifted in the past. FACT or PROBABILITY• The orientation of the Earth poles might have shifted in the past. FACT or PROBABILITYmodal verb (may, could, might) + have + past participleis used to express that there is a possibility that something happened in the past, but we aren’t sure.

Examples: He may have called you twice yesterday. Jane could have told her about it last week.

Scientists have found evidence that the orientation of the poles of the Earth might have shifted in the past. It could have forced our entire planet to spin on its side for a few million years. It was the way the Earth might have restored its own balance and it might happen again.

I like to imagine that Mars could have been home to intelligent life or that it is inhabited. Satellite imagery has shown strange things that look like structured areas and straight lines. They could have been the ruins of ancient civilizations.There might have been networks of cave systems and ecosystems. Some deep craters on Mars also acted as basins where groundwater likely emerged to produce lakes, which contain clay and carbonate minerals. There could have been rivers, lakes and seas on the surface of the red planet.Some controversial photos were published by NASA. They show large formations that look like spreading trees as seen from above. These formations appear to change with the seasons, growing with the warmth and increased sunlight of Mars's spring season, just as vegetation would. Some kind of plant life could have existed on Mars.Some say there is a humanoid civilization living under the surface of Mars. Some scientists suggest that thousands of years ago fragments of the Vela supernova entered the solar system and destroyed the ecosystem on Mars. The Martians, who were more ethically and technologically advanced than humans, might have sheltered underground.

Check it out!

The density of the atmosphere on Mars is about one hundredth that of Earth's atmosphere, so liquid water is not very likely on Mars. The surface of Mars has been mapped and there are no seas or lakes or rivers, or forests. It looks like there

was once liquid water on the surface of Mars, but that was in the distant past.

In this section, students’ attention is primarily focused on developing reading skills.Pre-, during- and post- reading activities are introduced in the section.Activities in this section encourage students to read for multiple purposes including:• to search for information• to synthesize and evaluate information• for general comprehension• to learn new informationSome of the examples of the reading activities included in this section are:• Previewing the text• Skimming the text or portions of the text• Answering or formulating questions• Exploring key vocabulary• Outlining or summarizing key ideas• Examining emotions or attitudes of key characters• Writing down predictions• Completing tables, charts or grids• Expanding or changing a semantic mapCareful reading of texts is encouraged. Tasks require students to demonstrate a good understanding of details in the text, to learn information from it, and to use that information for other tasks.Activities often focus on unraveling information in sentences, exploring inference that connect sets of information, distinguishing important ideas and using text information for other activities.If a text is too difficult for students, additional support is provided, encouraging students to work in pairs or groups and do post-reading activities together.

In this section, students are encouraged to work in pairs, thus exchanging information or giving their personal opinion on a subject. Students should use the lexical items and structures introduced in the lesson. In this section, students put into practice what they’ve learned through listening, reading or writing activities, by creating dialogs, asking and answering questions, making comparisons, discussing different topics, etc.

Activities in this section promote oral skills in many ways.Discussions, speeches, role plays, conversations, listening to dialogs and other accuracy-based activities are used in the speaking sections of the lessons. Activities that promote students getting acquainted with each other and practice specific structures in a realistic context. This section enables students to use some of the vocabulary, grammar and functions introduced in the lesson in a meaningful context.The activities are motivating and present real-life tasks. Students make suggestions, make decisions, express their personal opinion, compare photos, speculate, compare and discuss to achieve their goal.The speaking tasks are based on verbal or visual stimuli.

In this section, students are introduced to different grammar points, interesting cultural facts or new lexical items which might encourage them to research more on a subject.

Ads Everywhere!

People have become addicted to ads. It seems obvious that people can’t make decisions for themselves anymore. Someone

has to tell them which brand of clothes to wear, which car to drive or which brand of food to eat.

On the other hand, advertising gains profits that go towards many TV programs that we watch. We enjoy watching good

movies and ads are a useful tool to attract new investors.

To sum up, there are many reasons for trying to defend ourselves against advertising by becoming less materialistic. There is

no doubt that it is a hard thing to do. We live in a consumerist society.

It is worrying that people are constantly bombarded by ads. They are everywhere. It is obvious that children are the real

victims. They’re easily influenced by advertising.

In this section of each module, students are exposed to a variety of writing exercises which develop the mental skills necessary for learning and thinking. Writing essays, reports, letters and stories help students understand the subject under discussion and provides them with an outlet for expressing their feelings and opinions.

In this section, students are introduced to different writing tasks: answering questions, completing, expanding and elaborating, editing, comparing, retelling, etc. Students should be given enough time to perform the writing tasks. The use of the new lexical items and grammatical structures is encouraged.Students are encouraged to express their ideas in writing and to do so with reasonable coherence and accuracy. Activities introduced in this section should be viewed as an act of communication.The proposed sequence of activities start with primary focus on the mechanical aspects of writing, as the basic instrumental skill. Then they gradually move on to a combination of language focus and “purpose for writing”. Gradually, the communicative perspective will become more central to writing activities.

Lesson 2 Is our society influenced by advertising?

discuss the influence of advertising on individuals and modern society.Get ready to…

Time to start What brands come to your mind when you see these images?

Read on Opinions on AdvertisingWhat do you think about advertising on TV and magazines?Do you imagine modern society without any influence of advertisements?

Skim the text to find out what Angela, Michael, and Toby are talking about. Now read what they say. Choose the correct names for the questions below. Do you agree with Angela, Michael or Toby?

Angela Michael Toby1. Who enjoys advertisements? Angela Michael Toby2. Who thinks that commercials are useful?3. Who is sometimes bothered by advertisements?4. Who thinks that there are too many ads on TV?5. Who likes to watch the ads?6. Who doesn’t like the movies interrupted by commercials?7. Who likes internet games?8. Who thinks that some commercials can become TV art?9. Who doesn’t like junk mail?10. Who thinks ads are funny?

Advertising is an important part of marketing. You can't escape it. Sometimes it bothers me a lot. But, I also sometimes enjoy it. Some commercials are created so professionally that they become TV art. Unfortunately, it is a rare occurrence. Some years ago, I couldn't imagine the interruption of an interesting movie by advertising. Now it is a reality in our society.

In my opinion, advertisements are part of our society. We can't do without them. Sometimes commercials are very useful; they can inform you about a new product which you wouldn't know about otherwise. However, I think that we are bombarded with too many ads, especially on TV. When you want to watch a movie, you are interrupted every five minutes. And what about junk mail?I personally don't pay attention to it. It goes directly into the trash can, so what a waste of paper!

Nowadays, we can see so many advertisements. Some people say it is just a waste. However, I don't agree. At times, I think there are too many on TV, but sometimes I like to watch just the commercials. I like to watch them when I am bored. Another reason why I like ads is because I like Internet games. Some Internet games are free because of the advertisements. So, for me, ads can be useful.

Grammar peek Prefixes & SuffixesWhich of these words have suffixes and which have prefixes?• important • accusation• creation• influence

An English word can consist of three parts: the root, a prefix, and a suffix. The root is the part of the word that contains the basic meaning, or definition of the word. The prefix is a word element placed in front of the root, which changes the word's meaning or makes a new word. A suffix is a word element placed after the root, which changes the word's meaning as well as its function.

Reading Follow-UpRead the statements and write the numbers of the advertising techniques in the provided spaces. What advertising techniques affect you?

Read the article and answer the questions below. Discuss it in pairs or groups.

Nowadays, advertising is everywhere. It is online, on television, on billboards, in newspapers, in magazines, in grocery stores, on buses and even in cell phones. Some forms of advertising can be subliminal. For example, a strategically placed box of cereal or a can of soda in a movie or TV show. As consumers, we are influenced and manipulated. We should be aware of the various appeals and techniques used to influence consumer behavior. Some of the techniques used in advertising are unethical. For example, the "get rich quick" technique that offers consumers unrealistic deals and promises short term profits that require no effort.

1. Where can we find advertising?

2. What is an example of subliminal advertising?

3. What should consumers be aware of?

4. What is the example of unethical technique?

Read onRead the sample essay and put the paragraphs into the corresponding order.

Ads Everywhere!

People have become addicted to ads. It seems obvious that people can’t make decisions for themselves anymore. Someone has to tell them which brand of clothes to wear, which car to drive or which brand of food to eat.

On the other hand, advertising gains profits that go towards many TV programs that we watch. We enjoy watching good movies and ads are a useful tool to attract new investors.

To sum up, there are many reasons for trying to defend ourselves against advertising by becoming less materialistic. There is no doubt that it is a hard thing to do. We live in a consumerist society.

It is worrying that people are constantly bombarded by ads. They are everywhere. It is obvious that children are the real victims. They’re easily influenced by advertising.

1. Include the statement declared in the task or title.2. Offer ideas supporting one side of the statement.3. Provide points that support the other side of the statement.4. Conclude by giving your own opinion and summing up.

What if we actually put this theory to work on a regular basis?Read the quotes and say what they are about.“We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” Winston Churchill“He who cannot give anything away cannot feel anything either.” Friedrich Nietzsche“The poor don’t know that their function in life is to exercise our generosity.” Jean-Paul Sartre

Facebook© Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg is donating nearly $500 million in stock to a Silicon Valley charitable foundation.

The 28-year-old Zuckerberg said he and his wife, Priscilla, earmarked the gift of 18 million Facebook© shares for health and educational issues.

Zuckerberg made the announcement about the donation to the foundation on his Facebook© Timeline.

Fergie hosted the star-studded Voli Light Vodka cocktail party Thursday night to benefit the “Cell Phones For Soldiers” foundation at the Mondrian in Los Angeles. The vodka brand donated 500,000 mobile phone minutes to the charity, and Fergie, who co-owns Voli Light Vodka, presented the organization with a check at the party.

The "Celebrity Apprentice"© host and real estate mogul Donald Trump promised he had information that would have a dramatic effect on the race for the White House between President Obama and Mitt Romney, but the short two-minute video released on YouTube turned out to be a bizarre offer from Trump to donate $5 million to Obama's favorite charity if the president released his college records and passport information.

Lance Armstrong, embroiled in new controversy surrounding his alleged doping while winning seven consecutive Tour de France titles, announced Wednesday that he is stepping down as chairman of his cancer-fighting charity so it can focus on its mission instead of its founder's problems. "This organization, its mission and its supporters are incredibly dear to my heart," Armstrong said in a statement. "Today therefore, to spare the foundation any negative effects as a result of controversy surrounding my cycling career, I will conclude my chairmanship.”

Read on BudgetsRead and choose from the budget types to match their descriptions. What types of budgets are appropriate for the individuals, business, or government organizations?Revenue budgets Incremental budgets Capital expenditure budgets Incremental budgets

The funds within this type of budget are allocated to departments or organizational units. The managers of these units then allocate funds to activities as they see fit. It is developed from the previous budget. Each period's budget begins by using the last period as a reference point.

This type of budget is a forecast, because it is based on the projection of future sales. Company’s competitors, advertising budget, sales force effectiveness and other relevant factors must be taken into consideration. An estimate of sales volume must be made. Based on estimates of demand at various prices, an appropriate sales price must be selected.

This type of budgets programs investments in property, buildings and major equipments. These are typically substantial expenses both in terms of magnitude and duration. The magnitude and duration of these investments can justify the development of separate budgets for these expenses. It allows forecasting future capital requirements, to keep on top of important capital projects, and to ensure that adequate cash is available to meet these expenses.

This type of budget shows the primary activities undertaken by an individual/organization to achieve its goals and allocates a specific amount to each. Particular attention has to be given to fixed expenses.

Team upRead the saving money tips that Ross gave to Anne. Then in teams, write more tips of your own. The team that writes more and better tips will win. For example:

• Do not have more than one credit card and use it only for emergencies. • Never go shopping on an empty stomach.• Eat less in restaurants and more at home. • Hire more efficient and less expensive TV cable/satellite and cellular plans.

Then create a budget and develop strategies for saving, which will allow you to achieve your goal: a graduation party, new school supplies, going on a trip, etc.Write about the project “Our Budget” on the Project Report section on pp. 76, 77.

Some celebrities, like movie stars and singers, are not just talented, but also generous. Giving to charity for some celebrities is a way to become more popular. For others, it’s a necessity. Lots of celebrities do charity work. Some say it has become fashionable to be concerned about the world and the environment. Whether the celebrities succeed in trying to help others or not, is a controversial subject. A charity, connected to a famous public figure, gets publicity.

Time to start

learn about prehispanic astronomy and discuss the use of calendars. Use the Simple Past and the Present Perfect.Get ready to…

What calendar did the Mayans use? What calendar did the Celts use?What calendar did the Egyptians use? What calendar has been used for the last hundred years?

Read on Astronomy in Prehispanic CulturesLook at the map which shows the main archaeological sites of prehispanic Mexico. Have you ever seen these sites? Mark the ones you have seen or would like to see.

Answer and discuss these questions in pairs or groups. Then, read the article and fill in the blanks with the correct words.

What role did calendars play in ancient cultures? What was the nature of interrelationship between astronomical concepts, society, and nature in prehispanic cultures? What observations did the Maya and the Aztecs use to create their myths, iconography, and attributes of gods?

Mesoamerica is a culturally defined geographical area corresponding to the central and southern parts of modern Mexico and the northern part of Central America. The observation of the natural environment allowed ancient societies to predict annual changes in their environments and to regulate their activities in time. Therefore, the need for astronomical increased notably with the origin of agriculture. The observation of the sky had an important role among the Maya, Aztecs, and other prehispanic cultures of Mesoamerica. Their familiarity with the regularities of the apparent motion of the Sun, the Moon, and bright planets has been attested in a large amount of data contained in codices and monumental hieroglyphic inscriptions, as well as in their sophisticated calendars. The study of architectural alignments has disclosed that civic and ceremonial buildings were largely oriented on astronomical grounds, mostly sunrises and sunsets on certain dates. Astronomy in Aztec and Maya society with religious ideas and practices. The most sophisticated astronomical knowledge was possessed by the priestly class, closely associated with the ruling . The Mesoamerican astronomer-priests achieved sophisticated knowledge about the periodicity of eclipses, which were considered bad omens in ancient traditions. The complex knowledge possessed by the priestly elite in prehispanic times was lost soon after the Conquest, mostly as a result of Christian imposed by the Spanish clergy. Among the planets observed in Mesoamerica, the most important one was Venus. Venus figured prominently in ideas and ritual practices linked to warfare and sacrifice, and was also believed to be an eclipse agent. The Mesoamerican world view was a manifestation of the attempts of the classes to their power by recreating and perpetuating the cosmic order in the earthly environment.

Attitude & Values“Watchfulness” means the ability to observe closely and alertly while aware of everything in one’s environment.Are you a watchful person?If prehispanic people hadn't been watchful, would they have achieved great advancements in astronomy?Read the quote and discuss it.“Every place is a goldmine. You have only to give yourself time, sit in a teahouse watching the passers-by, stand in a corner of the market, go for a haircut. You pick up a thread – a word, a meeting, a friend of a friend of someone you have just met – and soon the most insipid, most insignificant place becomes a mirror of the world, a window on life, a theatre of humanity.” Tiziano Terzani

Lesson 3 What can DNA tell us?

talk about DNA, bioethics and use Reported Speech.Get ready to…

Time to start Scientists say that human DNA has fewer genes than trees.What did Dr. Rudovsky say?

We have discovered more genetic material contained in human DNA.

We didn’t know how only 22,000 genes operated the entire human body.

We discovered that genes “communicate” with other genes by rearranging themselves.

Read on Why Am I Unique?Look at the image and suggest what Ms. Cramer is going to talk about.

Read what Ms. Cramer is telling her students. Answer the questions below. Have you learned anything interesting?

Do you know what helps you grow? Why do you have a different hair color or a different shoe size than your friends? Some students in this classroom are tall and others are short. Someone’s hair grows faster than yours. All these things make you unique. Human bodies are made up of cells and DNA. DNA makes your body and hair a certain color. It even determines how intelligent you are. There is a map of how we’re going to turn out even before we’re born. This map comes in the form of DNA. The DNA that we receive from our parents contributes to who we become as a person. Almost everything about us is determined based on the structure of our DNA. There is information on every cell that you have stored in your DNA.There are billions of DNA strands in every person.A strand contains genes. DNA is encoded within four interchangeable blocks called “bases”.Forensic scientists can use DNA located in blood, or hair left at a crime scene to identify a possible suspect.The genetic code is a set of rules which maps DNA sequences in the living cell. The knowledge that DNA was the carrier of genetic information was a process which required many earlier discoveries. The existence of DNA was discovered in the mid 19th century. However, it was only in the early 20th century that researchers began suggesting that it might store genetic information.

1. What are human bodies made of? 2. What makes our body and hair a certain color? 3. Whose DNA contributes to who we become? 4. What do DNA strands contain? 5. How many DNA strands are there in every person? 6. What can forensic scientists use to identify a suspect? 7. What is a genetic code? 8. Where is DNA encoded? 9. When was the existence of DNA discovered? 10. What did researchers begin suggesting in the early 20th century?

“Ethics is to know the difference between what you have a right to do and what is right to do.” Potter Stewart

“Man cannot pretend to be higher in ethics, spirituality, advancement, or civilisation than other creatures, and at the same time live by lower standards than the vulture or hyena.” Jay Dinsah

Word for word GeneticsRead the definitions and match them with the words. Find these words in the lesson and write sentences of your own using them.

• DNA a. an organism's genetic material• molecule b. the sequence of nucleotides in DNA or RNA that determines the specific amino acid sequence• genome c. deoxyribonucleic acid• genetic code d. the smallest particle of a substance that retains its chemical and physical properties

Grammar peek Reported SpeechUnderline the verbs and pronouns that change their form in the sentences. Why does it happen?

a. “Dr. Gibson spoke to us.”b. She said that Dr. Gibson had spoken to them.

Reported speech is the form we use to speak about what others say.If the introductory sentence starts in the present (She says…, He insists…. They emphasize…), there is no backshift of tenses in Reported Speech.Example: Direct Speech Mary: “I often stay in the library after midnight.” Reported Speech Mary says that she often stays in the library after midnight.

If the introductory sentence starts in the past (She said.., He asked…, They replied…), there is a backshift of tenses in Reported Speech.Example: Direct Speech Mary: “I stayed in the library after midnight.” Reported Speech Mary said that she had stayed in the library after midnight.

Reading Follow-Up

Read the article and complete the table below.

Genetic EngineeringGenetic engineering is the manipulation of the genes that allows an organism to perform new functions or produce new substances. It has applications in medicine, food production, agriculture and the environment.Genetic engineering gives scientists knowledge about how cancer spreads, how viruses replicate inside our cells, or how a brain degenerates in Parkinson’s patients.When treating life-threatening diseases, genetic engineering aims to replace faulty genes with perfect working copies. But gene therapy can be a dangerous procedure. A gene can land in a spot other than where you want it. Gene therapy can cause harm when used in the wrong way.Many crops are being genetically engineered in many ways. It results in higher crop yields, more nutritious food, crops that are more resistant to pests, food with better flavor and a long shelf life. However, a gene for herbicide resistance may spread into other crops.Genetic modification of crops might pose a hazard to the ecosystem.Some scientists fear it might cause more allergic reactions in consumers.Scientists have been manipulating genomes for decades with the selective breeding of crops and cattle. Some see it as against nature and potentially risky for the human race.Genetic engineering is valuable technology and should be pursued as long as everything possible is done to ensure that the risks are minimal.

“I see nothing wrong ethically with the idea of correcting single gene defects through genetic engineering. But I am concerned about any other kind of intervention, for anything else would be an experiment, which would impose our will on future generations and take unreasonable chances with their welfare ... Thus such intervention is beyond the scope of consideration.” Ian Wilmut

What do these sentences express?

• The orientation of the Earth poles shifted in the past. FACT or PROBABILITY• The orientation of the Earth poles might have shifted in the past. FACT or PROBABILITY

modal verb (may, could, might) + have + past participle

is used to express that there is a possibility that something happened in the past, but we aren’t sure.Examples: He may have called you twice yesterday.

Jane could have told her about it last week.

Scientists have found evidence that the orientation of the poles of the Earth might have shifted in the past. It could have forced our entire planet to spin on its side for a few million years. It was the way the Earth might have restored its own balance and it might happen again.

I like to imagine that Mars could have been home to intelligent life or that it is inhabited. Satellite imagery has shown strange things that look like structured areas and straight lines. They could have been the ruins of ancient civilizations.There might have been networks of cave systems and ecosystems. Some deep craters on Mars also acted as basins where groundwater likely emerged to produce lakes, which contain clay and carbonate minerals. There could have been rivers, lakes and seas on the surface of the red planet.Some controversial photos were published by NASA. They show large formations that look like spreading trees as seen from above. These formations appear to change with the seasons, growing with the warmth and increased sunlight of Mars's spring season, just as vegetation would. Some kind of plant life could have existed on Mars.Some say there is a humanoid civilization living under the surface of Mars. Some scientists suggest that thousands of years ago fragments of the Vela supernova entered the solar system and destroyed the ecosystem on Mars. The Martians, who were more ethically and technologically advanced than humans, might have sheltered underground.

Check it out!

The density of the atmosphere on Mars is about one hundredth that of Earth's atmosphere, so liquid water is not very likely on Mars. The surface of Mars has been mapped and there are no seas or lakes or rivers, or forests. It looks like there

was once liquid water on the surface of Mars, but that was in the distant past.

Time to start

Read on Another Source of EnergyWhat springs to your mind when you hear ‘renewable energy’?

Look at the illustration and suggest what the article is going to be about.

Read the article and discuss it. Use the key words below to retell it.

For every hundred meters you go into the ground, the temperature increases in about 3 degrees Celsius. Or, for every 328 feet, it increases 5.4 degrees Fahrenheit. Deep under the surface, water sometimes makes its way close to the hot rock and turns into boiling hot water or into steam. The hot water can reach temperatures of more than 300 degrees Fahrenheit (148 degrees Celsius). This is hotter than boiling water (212 degrees F / 100 degrees C). It doesn't turn into steam because it is not in contact with the air.Hot water or steam from below the ground can also be used to generatee electricity in a geothermal power plant. In California, there are 14 areas where geothermal energy is used to produce electricity.Holes are drilled into the ground and pipes lowered into the hot water, like a drinking straw in a soda. The hot steam or water comes up through these pipes.Mexico is the fourth largest provider of geothermal power. In September, 2012, Mexico’s Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) reached an agreement with Japan’s Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. to build another 50 MW geothermal power plant. The power plant will be constructed in the region of Michoacán, and will be completed by the end of 2014.This reliable electricity might be produced in the future at a more stable price, and it generates electricity in a such way that it reduces environmental impact and emissions to a minimum. An advantage it has over other renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power is that geothermal energy is not intermittent.

Have you changed your ideas about what can be done in a second?

Read on ClocksWhat types of clocks do you know?

Read about the clocks and choose the correct type for each statement below.

Sun clocks (tall four-sided tapered monuments or obelisks) were carefully constructed —and even purposefully geographically located— around 3500 BC. A shadow was cast as the Sun moved across the sky by the obelisk, which was marked out in sections, allowing people to clearly see the two halves of the day. Another ancient Egyptian shadow clock or sundial seems to have been in use around 1500 BC, which allowed the measuring of the passage of 'hours'. People used to divide sections into ten parts, with two 'twilight hours' indicated, occurring in the morning and in the evening. For it to work successfully at midday or noon, the device had to be turned 180 degrees to measure the afternoon hours.

Water clocks were among the earliest time keeping devices that didn't use the observation of celestial bodies to calculate the passage of time. The ancient Greeks began using water clocks around 325 BC. They used to determine the hours of the night using water clocks. The problem with the water clocks was that they were not totally accurate, as the system of measurement was based on the flow of water either into, or out of, a container which had markers around the sides. Another very similar form was that of a bowl that people used to fill with water and watch it sink during a period of time. It is known that water clocks were common across the Middle East, and that these were still being used in North Africa during the early part of the twentieth-century.

The running of a quartz clock is based on the piezoelectric property of the quartz crystal. When an electric field is applied to a quartz crystal, it actually changes the shape of the crystal itself. If you then squeeze it or bend it, an electric field is generated. When placed in an appropriate electronic circuit, this interaction between the mechanical stress and the electrical field causes the crystal to vibrate, generating a constant electric signal which can then be used, for example, on an electronic clock display. The first wrist-watches that appeared in mass production used 'LED', 'Light Emitting Diode' displays. By the 1970's these were to be replaced by a 'LCD', 'Liquid Crystal Display'.

Reading Follow-Up

Atomic Clocks

Although quartz clocks continue to dominate the market because of the accuracy and reliability of their performance, and also being inexpensive to produce on mass scale, they have now been surpassed by the 'Atomic clock'.A vast amount of knowledge regarding 'electromagnetic waves', also known as 'microwaves', which interact with the atoms, was created in the 1930s, along with the development of the radar and the subsequent experimentation with high frequency radio communications during the 1940s. Scientists discovered some time ago that atoms and molecules have 'resonances' and that each chemical element and compound absorbs and emits 'electromagnetic radiation' within its own unique 'frequencies'.The development of atomic clocks focused firstly on microwave resonances in the chemical ammonia and its molecules. In 1957, 'NIST', the 'National Institute of Standards and Technology', completed a series of tests using a 'Cesium Atomic Beam' device, followed by a second program of experiments by NIST in order to have something for comparison when working at atomic level. By 1960, as the outcome of the programs, 'Cesium Time Standards' were incorporated as the official time keeping system at NIST.The 'Natural frequency' is currently recognized as the measurement of time, used by all scientists. It defines the period of 'one second' as exactly '9,192,631,770 Oscillations' or '9,192,631,770 Cycles of the Cesium Atom's Resonant Frequency'. From the 'Macrocosm', or 'Planetary Alignment', to the 'Microcosm', or 'Atomic Frequency', cesium now maintains accuracy with a margin of error of about 'one-millionth of a second per year'.Much of modern life has come to depend on such precise measurements of time. The day is long past when we could get by with a timepiece accurate to the nearest quarter hour. Transportation, financial markets, communication, manufacturing, electric power and many other technologies have become dependent on super-accurate clocks. Scientific research and the demands of modern technology continue to drive our search for even more accuracy. The next generation of Cesium Time Standards is presently under development at many laboratories around the world.

Read onRead the story and underline the key words.

In Wheeling, West Virginia, around 1850, a man named Eber Pettet was staying at the City Hotel. Since this was before the time that slaves had been emancipated, the Underground Railroad (U.G.R.R), which helped African-Americans escape from slavery and make their way to free cities in the north, was in full operation. You may have read about Harriet Tubman and others who led many groups of slaves to freedom.According to author Charles Blockson, Pettet came to know that the City Hotel was a stop on the Underground Railroad. He met a young black man named Charley who described his experience in Wheeling.Charley had stolen a horse and run away from his owner in Virginia. For two weeks he lived off corn and apples and was almost starved by the time he reached Wheeling. He went to the hotel before daylight and asked the landlord for some bread."You are a runaway," the landlord said. Charley started to say no, but the landlord added, "Go with me!"He took Charley to the barn where he had left the stolen horse."Do you know whose horse that is?" the landlord asked.Convinced that he had been caught and would soon be sent back to his master in chains, Charley told him the truth and waited for the landlord to call the authorities.Instead, the landlord said, "You see that house beyond that lot?"Charley nodded."You go there and tell them I said they must take care of you, and give you something to eat." The landlord was smiling now, but it was getting light. "Hurry, go right in the back door." Taken from James M. Deem “How to travel through time”

Track 1

I’ve always wondered how the different social networks came into existence. Well, it wasn’t like the Big Bang. You might think Facebook© or Twitter© have always been around, but that’s not true. In 1997, a social network site sixdegrees.com© came on the scene. It ran its course fast and fizzled out. Then, other social networking sites began popping up.Like what?In 2002, Friendster.com© was born. The famous Myspace© appeared in 2003. Your favorite, Facebook© hit the scene in 2004 and Twitter© launched in 2006. Of course, these are not the only social networking sites. There are hundreds of others and new ones appear almost every week. Why are they so popular?The idea behind any social network is to help people to connect with each other. For example, my family lives in another country and I can be in touch with them every day.My mother thinks social networks set us apart because we spend too much time online instead of interacting personally.I understand your mother’s point of view, but I don’t agree with her. A social networking site is social media which is a form of communication. I think it brings people together. Communicating became easier and faster without any obstacles. But certainly it cannot replace personal interaction.

I think everybody is influenced by commercials. We can watch the same commercial many times on every channel. In the end, we begin to think about it. Is it good or bad? Is the advertised product cheap or expensive? Am I influenced by commercials? I definitely am. When I go to the store, I look for the product that I saw advertised. I’m especially influenced by TV commercials. When I hear about a new household or cosmetic product, I’d like to try it. I try to find it in the store. I’m curious about it. Is it really the best?I must admit that in the past I was even more influenced by commercials. I wasn’t sure about the brands, so I was easily swayed by commercials. Nowadays, I try to buy the same brands which I have tried and the products that satisfy my needs.

Track 3

If I were from Mars and came to Earth in a spaceship, what would people think about me? If I were extremely rude, they would assume that everyone on Mars is as rude as me. But what if I am the only rude Martian and all of the other Martians are friendly? From the only encounter with me, a Martian, people would make this judgment. Or maybe I was rude that one time or people just misunderstood me.Many people think that all Australians live in the country with pet kangaroos and catch crocodiles. Most TV shows and movies show Australians catching crocodiles. Sometimes we stereotype different people and nations unintentionally. But it is people’s biggest flaw and can result in wars.

Track 5

What would I do if I were a millionaire? I’ve asked myself this question many times. I’d like to have a lot of money so I can help people who have less than me. I would definitely buy a new house and a nice car for myself first, but then, I’d do my best to provide homes, clothes and food for the poor. I would also help homeless children. I’d open free schools and hospitals for them. I would donate money to different social service organizations which help the elderly and the orphans. I would help my mother, who wouldn’t have to work anymore. I’d do my best to make her life as comfortable as possible so she enjoys it every day. She’d live by the sea as she always wanted.Sometimes, when one becomes rich, one forgets about those in need, but it wouldn’t be my case. I’d always remain sympathetic and generous.

Module 2

Honey! Where did you get all this stuff?Do you like it? I bought it yesterday. The computer and the food processor must be very expensive. And what about this digital camera? You told me we didn’t have enough to pay the rent. Where did you get the money from?I bought it with my new credit card. It has a very low interest rate. Laura! We must pay our debts first. Don’t worry. My boss promised me a raise. And this credit card has a credit limit of $20,000.Credit cards lead to impulse spending. The interest rates are always sky-high. Credit cards are for emergency expenses. To have two is ridiculous.I’m going to pay things back very soon. You should come up with a budget to program your payments. I promise, I will.

I need your advice, Ross. I don’t think I’m good at saving money. I think about the future and I want to have some savings by the time I’m 30.You will have saved a lot of money by the time you’re thirty if you follow my advice.I’m all ears.First of all you’ll have to create a budget which will help you determine how much money you spend. How do I do that?You will need to track your expenses. By the end of the month, you’ll have determined an estimate of your spending habits. Will I have to write down every dollar I spend?Of course. I’ll give you a budget sheet that you’ll use to track your spending. You’ll have to keep your receipts and write all your expenses on the sheet. By the end of the week, you’ll have gathered a pile of receipts and notes. So I advise you to categorize your expenses into fixed and variable.I’ll have to be very careful with my variable expenses, won’t I?You’re right! After you track your expenses, you’ll be able to set up an estimate of your budget. It’s just the beginning and later, I’ll give you some tips to help you save. See you next week.I’ll have completed the budget sheet before I see you next Saturday. Thank you so much, Ross.

• What role did the observation of the sky have in prehispanic cultures in Mesoamerica?• What have the studies of architectural alignments disclosed?• What did astronomy intertwine with in Maya and Aztec societies?• What did ancient societies predict using astronomical observations?• When was the knowledge possessed by the priests in prehispanic times lost?

Today, I will tell you something about colonial medicine. Medieval science was based on old writings originating from the ancient Romans and Greeks. Medieval physicians would base their treatments on one’s temperament and astrological data.Surgeons would take care of skin conditions. Physicians with an academic degree would cure their patients only with drugs and diets. They would perform no surgeries. Yes, Liz?Did they make or sell drugs? They didn’t make or sell drugs. In the beginning of the 17th century, British apothecaries would prescribe drugs.The need for medical care was high, but academic medicine often could not cure diseases. People would turn to anyone who claimed to be qualified. Yes, Liz? How did they tell the difference between a charlatan and a qualified practitioner?That’s an excellent question, Liz. The difference between a charlatan and a qualified practitioner had more to do with motivation and fees than the outcome. A literate person would learn medicine by reading. In the colonies, all educated men who acquired some theoretical medical knowledge would practice medicine or give medical advice. Yes, Matt?Who would people turn to in the absence of qualified practitioners?People would rely on home remedies. Everyone in the 17th century would have some knowledge of herbal medicine. Housewives often had herb gardens that provided medical ingredients.

Today, we have Dr. Hans Christensen. Dr. Christensen is an assistant professor of bioethics at Medical College. Dr. Christensen is here to answer some questions from our listeners.Thank you for inviting me to your radio program. Alex Chase from Chicago is asking: “How do you protect patient privacy?”Genome sequencing allows us to collect so much information that makes any individual easily identified. Because of the individualized nature of the information collected, we need to take extra precautions to make sure that someone can’t be identified if they’ve participated in research.Rose, from New York, is asking: “Who else can find out about my genome sequencing if I participate in this research?”Your genes aren’t just your own, which is why we should consider what impacts this information could have on other family members. It isn’t just about the individual, but it has potential implications for anyone who’s genetically related to that person. We follow ethical guidelines. Anonymizing specimens is a standard practice when looking at tissue samples, interviews, and even survey results.Thank you very much, Dr. Christensen.

“Spirit” became the first explorer to climb a mountain on another planet. Its studies showed plenty of volcanic rocks and few signs of minerals formed by water. “Spirit’s” records show how volatile Mars was in the past. Volcanoes were exploding. Lava was flowing. Water was seeping. Then some geological force uplifted the hills exposing eroded landslides.While dozens of wind whirls were passing before “Spirit’s” cameras, some dust formations made contact. They were sweeping dust from the solar panels and this kept “Spirit” functional for a longer period.

Track 11

Andrew: Some suggest using solar cells. They can be used in a home for lights and appliances.For energy in the future, others suggest putting huge solar power satellites into orbit around the earth. They would collect solar energy from the Sun, convert it to electricity and beam it to Earth as microwaves or some other form of transmission. This form of energy would have no greenhouse gas emissions, but microwave beams might affect health adversely. And frequent rocket launches may harm the upper atmosphere. I think this idea may not be practical for another century; if at all. Daniel: I think that fuel cells are a promising technology for use as a source of heat and electricity in buildings, and as an electrical power source for vehicles.Auto companies are working on building cars and trucks that use fuel cells. Although these applications would ideally run off pure hydrogen, in the near term they might be fueled with natural gas, methanol or even gasoline. In the future, hydrogen might also join electricity as an important energy carrier. Renewable energy sources, like the sun, can’t produce energy all the time. The sun doesn’t always shine. But hydrogen can store this energy until it is needed and can be transported to where it is needed.

Track 12

How did prehistoric men use to tell the time?Prehistoric men used to observe the stars and changes in the seasons. They used their observations to plan farming, sacred feasts and nomadic activities. What were the earliest time measurement devices before clocks and watches?The sundial, hourglass and water clock.What advance occurred in the 1300’s?Mechanical clocks, which used weights and springs, appeared. They had no faces and no hour or minute hands. They used to strike a bell every hour.Excellent! What did Christian Huygens invent in 1656?He invented the pendulum clock. Thanks to the pendulum clocks, people used to tell a more accurate time. The bigger the pendulum, the more accurate the clock was.Why did the British Parliament offer a reward in 1714?Sailors used to get lost and thousands of them died because they needed to find longitude and pendulum clocks would not work at sea. For every minute lost by a clock, there would be a navigation error of 15 miles. So, anyone who could invent a more accurate clock was offered a reward. In 1761, John Harrison invented a small clock. Sailors used to tell the time using this tiny pocket watch for navigation at sea.Who developed machines and patterns that produced clock parts that were exactly alike?Eli Terry. In the early 1800’s, clocks could be mass-produced. Clock masters could interchange clock parts from one to another. By the midst of the 1800’s, common people used to purchase more than one clock or wristwatch.Who used to wear wristwatches at the dawn of the 20th century?Those days, only women wore wristwatches. That’s not totally true. In the First World War, soldiers used to wear wristwatches because it was almost impossible to take out a pocket watch to check the time in battle.You’re right. What was invented in 1967?The atomic clock was invented. Its error ratio was of one second for every 1.4 million years.But, in 1999, scientists developed the cesium fountain atomic clock, which is off by only one second for every 20 million years.That’s true. This clock is the most accurate in the world.

Just Another Star?

It is often said that the Sun is an “ordinary” star. That’s true in the sense that there are many others similar to it. But there are many smaller stars than larger ones; the Sun is in the top 10% by mass. The median size of stars in our galaxy is probably less than half the mass of the Sun.The Sun is personified in many mythologies: the Greeks called it Helios and the Romans called it Sol.The Sun’s power is produced by nuclear fusion reactions. It just happens that the Moon and the Sun appear the same size in the sky as viewed from the Earth. And since the Moon orbits the Earth in approximately the same plane as the Earth’s orbit around the Sun, sometimes the Moon comes directly between the Earth and the Sun.Solar eclipses happen once or twice a year. If you stay where you are, you’re likely to see a partial eclipse several times per decade. But since the path of totality is so small, it is very unlikely that it will cross you where you are. So, people often travel half way around the world just to see a total solar eclipse.In addition to heat and light, the Sun also emits a low density stream of charged particles, known as the solar wind, which propagates throughout the solar system at about 450 km/sec. The solar wind and the much higher energy particles ejected by solar flares can have dramatic effects on the Earth ranging from power line surges and radio interference to the beautiful Aurora Borealis.The solar wind has considerable effects on the tails of comets and even has measurable effects on the trajectories of spacecraft.The Sun’s output is not entirely constant. Nor is the amount of sunspot activity. There was a period of very low sunspot activity in the latter half of the 17th century called the Maunder Minimum. It coincides with an abnormally cold period in northern Europe sometimes known as the Little Ice Age.It will continue to radiate “peacefully” for another 5 billion years or so, although its luminosity will approximately double in that time.

Great Skyscrapers!

American architect and engineer, William Le Baron Jenney, pioneered the use of metal-frame construction for large buildings. He used cast-iron columns encased in masonry to support steel beams bearing floor weights. Outside walls could be filled with windows. Jenney’s revolutionary construction method spurred the emergence of skyscrapers.The construction of the Flatiron Building at Fifth Avenue and Twenty-Third Street was finished in 1902. It was Manhattan’s first skyscraper, standing approximately 312 feet tall.In 1930, architect William Van Alen added the art deco to the Chrysler Building. Inspired by cubist art and machine forms, he made the building rise in a series of narrowing arches to the stainless steel spire. His building competed for stature with The Bank of the Manhattan Company at Forty Wall Street. Determined to win the height fight, Van Alen secretly had the spire launched through the finished crest, making his building taller by 121 feet. Its finished height measured 1,048 feet.In 1931, the Empire State Building was completed on Fifth Avenue, between Thirty-third and Thirty-fourth Streets, making it the tallest building in the world at the time. Even though it no longer holds the distinction of the tallest building, with its elegant art deco design, the Empire State Building is regarded as the quintessential American skyscraper. It featured prominently in the 1933 movie King Kong, where the creature climbed the Empire State Building.It was 202 feet taller than the Chrysler Building. The structure’s two-year completion was amazing not only because of its height, but also because it was built during the Great Depression.
