[01:54.47]Lesson 14 Reading11
[01:59.04]Read this travel12 diary13 to answer these questions:
[02:04.50]1 Where did14 the writer15 go?
[02:08.86]2 How did she travel?
[02:13.02]A TRAVEL DIARY(1)
[02:16.07]Tuesday October 5th,199_.
[02:23.02] I'm sitting on a rock near the river with my friends.
[02:29.08]Our guide16 is cooking17 supper--I can smell it.
[02:34.36] We are having a wonderful time.
[02:38.20]I am in the middle of this great forest18 in South America.
[02:43.24]We can't travel through the forest by road,
[02:47.60]because there aren't any roads.
[02:51.26]So we have to travel by air or boat.
[02:55.93]We are enjoying our boat trip very much.
[03:00.48]At night we tie the boat to a big tree by the river bank near a village.
[03:07.64]Our guide buys some food from the villagers19 and we cook it ourselves20.
[03:14.61]Sometimes we eat chicken,eggs,birds or monkeys.
[03:20.57]I think it is wrong to eat monkeys,so I don't.
[03:25.53]Most of the time we eat fish.
[03:29.97] All night long we can hear the strange21 sounds of wild22 birds and animals.
[03:36.53]There are parrots23 too.
[03:39.90]We can see them flying along24 the river.
[03:43.95]In the evening I love sitting by the fire and playing my guitar.
[03:49.90] It is dangerous to swim in the river.
[03:53.87]This afternoon I was25 just about to go swimming
[03:58.84]when luckily our guide saw26 me and shouted at me,"Stop! Don't swim!"
[04:06.49]He explained27 that there are dangerous fish in the river.
[04:11.45]The fish have very sharp28 teeth;
[04:15.40]they can eat a person29 in two minutes,leaving only the bones.
[04:21.77] Last week we started our trip across30 this country.
[04:27.13]After spending the weekend in the capital31 we took32 a taxi to the airport.
[04:33.48]Then we took off and flew33 over a part34 of the forest.
[04:39.07]What a sad sight35 it was !
[04:42.72]For miles36 and miles I could37 see nothing except38 a great fire and lots of smoke.
[04:50.77] There is not enough land39 by the sea.
[04:54.92]The population40 of the country is growing every minute.
[04:59.96]Many people cannot find work in the capital.
[05:04.82]They are moving into the forests41.
[05:08.98]They travel until42 they come to a wild part of the forest.
[05:14.15]Then they burn43 the forest and plant crops44 for their cows.
[05:20.21]They can sell their beef45 at a high price46 in the capital.
[05:33.48]Lesson 15 1 Reading
[05:40.64] Read the second part of the diary and answer this question:
[05:46.28]What is happening to the forest?
[05:50.04]A TRAVEL DIARY (2)
[05:54.30] The farmers don't stay long in the same place.
[05:59.47]They move on to a new place every two or three years.
[06:05.35]I asked,"Why don't they stay? Isn't it easier to stay in the same place?
[06:13.50]Why do they move and burn more of the forest?"
[06:18.54]The answer is this:you can only grow crops in the forest for one or two years.
[06:26.27]The soil47 is very thin in the forest.
[06:30.40]It is only about 20 centimetres48 thick.
[06:35.08]It can easily49 be destroyed50 by the burning51 and by the cows.
[06:41.03]They soil is made52 from the dead53 leaves of the trees above.
[06:46.18]Under the soil there is nothing but sand.
[06:50.83]When this soil is destroyed,the forest land will become sand again.
[06:57.20]But this time there will be no trees to make new soil from their leaves
