BREAKING THE ICE Michael Sharp visits an outdoor pool.

It's just before 7 a.m. and I'm at an outdoor swimming pool in London, where the temperature the water is only 11 degrees above freezing! Amazingly, there are already eight people swimming. I had intended to discover, by taking a swim myself, why anyone would want to swim in such cold water. However, in the end, I decided to ask people instead. Peter Smith has been a swimmer here for three years, coming every morning before work. "It's wonderful on a cold winter morning", he says, "I thought it would make me healthier and haven't been ill once since I started". All the swimmers here say the same thing. They all feel fitter. However, not everyone agrees with them. Some doctors say it helps fight illness, while others say it could be dangerous, especially for your heart. I asked Peter what they did on the days when the pool was frozen. "That's easy", he said. "There's a place in the middle where the ice is thin and easy to break. You have to avoid the

sides where the ice is thicker. I did try to swim there once just to see what it was like, but I found that it was impossible to break throught the ice. I would like to be able to say that I too dived happily into the water and swam a couple of hundred metres. But the truth is, fearing the worst, I walked very carefully into the pool, stood there almost in shock and then got out again after 30 seconds before I became a block of ice! What does Peter Smith say about his morning swim? Seleccione una: A. It has helped him recover from a recent illness B. It is the reason why he keeps well all year C. He enjoys it when the pool is covered in ice D. He thinks it makes him work better Pregunta 8

Read the text and answer the question appropriately. BUTTERFLIES The butterfly is an insect. Butterflies are noted for their wings, which are often colorful and br ight. Butterfly wings are a bit like bird wings. Bird wings are made of feathers, but butterfly wings are made of tiny overlapping scales. The w ings are colored in various patterns. Some butterfly wings look iridescent (changing rainbow colors, depending on the light) because of the way li ght hits the scales. Butterflies have an interesting life cycle. They start as eggs. When they are born, they are what we call caterpillars. This is the larval stage for the caterpillar. The caterpillars then move into a cocoon, becoming what we call a chrysalis. This is the pupal stage. W hen the insect comes out of the cocoon, we call it a butterfly. This is the adult stage for the butterfly. These clear stages of changing on the way to adulthood are called metamorphosis. Many animals go through metamorphosis, but the butterfly’s changes are more dramatic than most. Butterflies can be found almost all over the world. There may be as many as twenty thousand different species of b utterflies. Butterflies usually eat flower nectar. Because of this, they are important to the life cycle of many flowers. Butterflies also need minerals, which they usually get from water found in dirt an d sand. They reach their adult stage in the summer. Some butterflies migrate. The Monarch butterflies migrate about 3000 miles (4800 km) every year. They fly between Mexico and California.

The letter B was beth which meant "house", and showed the round-roofed buildings which you can still see today in Syria. The Phoneacians had contact with another nation of sailors, the Greeks, with whom they fought and traded. The Greeks also started to use the Phoneacian alphabet.
