Dy ike at big cities, Pars has a trafic problem: lots of cars, lots of traffic jams and lots of pollution from exhaust fumes. So in 2007, the city began a scheme to improve the situation. Under the Velib scheme (‘Velib’ comes from vélo liberté, or ‘bicycle freedom’) people can take a bicycle, use it for as long as they want, and then leave it at ‘the same or another bicycle station. The first half-hour on the bike is free, but if you don’t return it after 30 minutes, you have to pay. But it's only €1 a day or €29 a year! The bicycles are heavy (25 kg), and they are all grey and have baskets. ‘There are about 20,000 of them in the city, and around 1,450 bicycle stations.

How is Paris trying to solve its traffic problems? Paris is not the first city to have a scheme like this — not even in France, Where Lyon started a ree’ bicycle scheme many years ago. And not everybody thinks it’s a great idea. One Parisian said, ‘These bicycles are only for short journeys. If people want to travel across the city, they won't use a bicycle — they'll still use their cars. A city spokesman said, ‘The bicycle scheme won't solve all our traffic problems, of course. But it might reduce pollution levels in the atmosphere. Traffic, together with factory fumes, is a big problem. Everyone knows about global warming and dramatic climate changes — we know this is partly because rainforests are disappearing. But i’ also because there’s so much pollution in the world and we can help improve the situation right here. The bikes might help people to lead a healthier life, too. There aren't any simple answers to traffic problems and pollution in cities. But unless we do something now, there will be more traffic jams and temperatures will continue to rise, so the problems in our environment will get worse! Read the text again and listen. Match the two parts of the sentences. if they use the bike for more than half an hour. still use cars to travel across the city might help to make the air in Paris cleaner. people can take bikes and leave them. the problem of pollution will get bigger. started a scheme to reduce pollution in the city. 1.

Are there any in your country? UNITS hen does a teenager become an adult? In many countries, it happens on your 18th birthday, but in some parts of the world, you have to do something special to enter the world of adults. On the island of Papua New Guinea, the Niowra tribe lives near the Sepik River, which is full of crocodiles. The people believe that crocodiles made the Earth and its people. When it is time for teenage boys to become men, a ‘crocodile ceremony’ takes place The boys are taken to a hut called ‘The Crocodile Nest’ The hut is, full of crocodile teeth and skulls. The boys are told to think of their crocodile ‘fathers and mothers’ to help them to be strong and brave. Then they are beaten several times a day for six weeks and bamboo is used to make cuts on their chests and their backs, The boys play the drums together during their time in the hut — this helps them to feel that they are not alone. The Niowra believe that this ceremony makes the boys stronger and braver, so that they can survive in the dangerous forest. They also say that the boys dont feel the pain if they believe in their crocodile fathers and mothers’. And the amazing thing is that some of the boys sleep through the most painful parts of the ceremony! When the ceremony is over, there is singing and dancing and the crocodile men are given adult responsibilities in the village© Grammar Present simple passive | We form the present simple passive with the verb be + the past participle of ‘the main verb.
