Columbus crossed the Atlantic Ocean three times. His first voyage brought him fame and popularity - he discovered a new continent. But he had enemies who wanted to get rid of him. On his second voyage the Government of the country that Columbus himself discovered threw him into prison.

            He was sent back to Spain as a prisoner. But Columbus succeeded in proving that the lies his enemies spread about him were untrue, and the Spanish Government gave him four ships to start on a new voyage. But this third voyage was unfortunate from the beginning. The ships were met by terrible storms and the time he reached the shores of Haiti, Columbus lost three of them. The remaining ship was about to go down when Columbus reached the island.

            It took Columbus almost a year to return to Spain. He was unhappy, disappointed and broken in health. Worst of all, everyone forgot his achievements. He died in poverty in 1506 without knowing that he discovered a new world. Before Columbus died, another traveller named Amerigo Vespussi returned to Spain. He travelled along the coast of the land that Columbus discovered, and he proved that it was not the coast of India, as Columbus thought, but unknown continent.

            For a long time the new continent was called the New World. But at last, they decided to name it America, in honour of Amerigo, whose voyage showed it was not India. America was discovered by Columbus in 1492. It was named America in 1506, the year in which Columbus died.

The price of holidays can fluctuate a great deal throughout the year, so you can save a lot if you are flexible with your travel dates and avoid peak holiday times. It can be also cheaper if you book well in advance. Before your departure, make sure you get as much information about your destination as you can. Find out if you require any special visas or permits to travel there. Think about spending money as well. Will you be able to access your own money easily enough or will you need to take cash with you? Think about eating larger lunches and smaller evening meals to help your money go further, as lunch is generally cheaper. Make sure that you keep sufficient identification with you at all times. It may also help to email a copy of your passport details to yourself, in case it is lost or stolen. Label your suitcases clearly so that they can be easily identified as yours. It can be useful to store a copy of your itinerary in a prominent place in your suitcase so that the airline will know where to find you if your luggage gets lost. Be sure to pack any medication or other essential items in your hand luggage. If your flight is delayed, or your luggage is lost, these can be difficult to obtain in an airport or foreign country.

IX. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

           In the past, getting recipes and cooking tips was a complicated process. A person had to go to the store and buy a cook book, or get recipes from friends. Fortunately, the internet has changed all that. Now, if you want to find a recipe for lasagna or cob salad, you just search online. It couldn’t be simpler.

           Cooking blogs are a great source of information because they are free and there are so many of them. They are also nice because they give all different kinds of ideas. The problems with blogs is that because we don’t know who is writing them, we need to use with caution. When you are looking at a new blog, you don’t know if the writer knows what he or she is talking about.

           We’d like to introduce two popular cooking blogs. The first is called smitten kitchen. This website is run by a family living in New York City. It focuses on food that doesn’t require many ingredients. If you want to make food that is simple but wonderful, then this is the site for you. It offers hundreds and hundreds of recipes, divided into categories. You will be amazed at how many there are.

          Wednesday Chef is another great cooking blog. It is run by a writer who lives in Berlin. This blog also offers many recipes, along with recommendations for great restaurants in Berlin, and advice for people who want to start their own blogs. Wednesday Chef has great pictures of its food, as well as interesting pictures of Berlin. The blog got its name because in the past, newspapers published their food articles on Wednesdays.

         There are a lot of cooking blogs on the internet, and most of them are pretty good. Go online and check some of them out. You might be surprised at how much they can help you improve your cooking.

Changes in care giving roles

With the burden of financial support reduced, and with a changing concept of a father’s role, modern day fathers tend to be more involved in children’s care giving. They are now spending more time and energy on their children. Psychological research across families from all ethnic backgrounds suggests that the influence of a father’s love and attention is as great as that of a mother’s. Fatherly love helps children develop a sense of their place in the world, which helps their social and emotional development. Moreover, children who receive more love from their fathers are less likely to have behavioural problems.

This trend is still increasing and its effects will become clearer and clearer in the future, especially in traditionally male-dominated societies.

Question 28. Which of these is NOT the traditional role of a father?

A. financial supporter             B. teacher of moral values      C. religious educator               D. caregiver

Question 29. Social welfare programmes ___________.

A. support families financially                                                B. help mothers with domestic abuse

C. educate fathers about their responsibilities                        D. train caregivers

Question 30. The influence of a mother’s love is ___________ that of the father’s.

A. more important than                                                           B. less important than

C. much greater than                                                               D. as important as

Question 31. Children who get more fatherly love will _______ behavioural problems.

A. never have any                   B. have more                           C. have fewer                          D. have a lot of

Question 32.The changing roles of the father will be seen more clearly in ___________.

A. ethnic groups                                                                      B. developed countries

C. economically independent societies                                  D. traditionally male-dominated societies
