WORLD WONDERS
1. It has taken millions of years for the Colorado River to carve the Grand Canyon out of solid rock in Arizona in the United States. The youngest rocks at the top are 235 million years old and those at the bottom are about 2 billion years old. The canyon is 1.6 km at its deepest and 15 km wide, stretching over 450 km in length.
2. Work on the Colosseum in Rome started in AD 70 and it was completed 12 years later. It was built as an arena for gladiator contests, chariot races and other Roman sports. When it was ready, Emperor Titus had an opening ceremony that lasted 100 days. During the ceremony alone, 1,000 gladiators and 5,000 animals were killed!
3. In 221 BC Emperor Qin decided to build a wall to keep invaders out of China. The Great Wall took 10 years to build and used a workforce of 300,000 soldiers and 500,000 slaves. The main part of the wall is 3,460 km long, between 7 and 12 m high and between 6 and 15 m wide (enough to allow five men on horseback to ride side by side)
4. The Great Barrier Reef in northern Australia is a coral reef made of millions of tiny living sea creatures. It is 2,000 km long and it is the longest coral reef in the world. The water on the reef is shallow and warm and it is home to an impressive number of animals and fish. Many of them are not found anywhere else in the world.

3. American cities are similar to other cities around the world: In every country, cities reflect the values of the culture. Cities contain the very best aspects of a society: opportunities of education, employment, and entertainment. They also contain the very worst parts of a society: violent crime, racial conflict, and poverty.

CARS: PASSION OR PROBLEM?
1. For some people, the car is a convenient form of transportation. But for others, the car is an exciting hobby. Some people spend their lives collecting valuable cars. Others drive them in races. Cars are important to nearly everyone. They will certainly continue to bring us travel and adventure, no matter how they change in future.
2. Many people are unhappy with car traffic and pollution, as well as with the use of beautiful land for building new roads. They dream of turning parking lots into parks and replacing cars with bicycles. However most people around the world believe that the car is a necessary part of life in today’s world and the problem is to make it environmentally friendly.
3. Scientists and engineers all over the world seek for new sources of energy for the car. In Brazil alcohol is quite commonly used as fuel. Methane gas is another source of fuel, but it is not widely used. In many parts of the world the sun fulfils many energy needs. Solar panels heated by the sun produce electricity driving solar cars.
4. Despite the increase in women drivers, researchers found no evidence that this is changing accident patterns. Age is far more important than gender in the car. Inexperienced new drivers of both sexes are more likely to be involved in accidents. Nearly half of them take place when it is dark

CUSTOMS AND TRADITIONS
1. In the Bijago Islands the roles that men and women play are different. Men look after the children and wear jewellery and perfume when they go out. They spend hours in front of a mirror brushing their hair and choosing clothes to wear. Women find building houses preferable to shopping and do all kinds of jobs men normally do in other countries.
2. In ancient Egypt people had their nails, palms and soles of their feet stained with a red vegetable dye. They also highlighted the veins on their temples with blue paint. Women had their skin lightened with a reddish-yellow colouring; men had theirs darkened with orange paint. Both men and women used to line their eyes heavily with black powder
3. Some fashions develop from religious beliefs. Rastafarians have their long hair twisted into thick strands. These are called dreadlocks. The lion is an important symbol in their religion and the dreadlocks symbolise a lion’s mane. Many other people, black and white, have adopted this hairstyle simply because they find it attractive.
4. High heels (каблуки) and platform shoes are not new. Hundreds of years ago, people used to wear them in the street because the streets were full of rubbish and mud. The rubbish didn’t touch their feet so their feet and dress didn’t get dirty. However they were uncomfortable and even dangerous to wear because of the terrible conditions of the roads.

3. The first mention of Sandwich was around 664 AD but it is older than that - there was probably a settlement in Roman times. In the medieval times the town was a main UK port. Today the many ancient buildings make Sandwich one of the best preserved medieval towns in England. Its ancient past speaks through the buildings and the traditions carried on.
