Butterflies
Collecting butterflies is a hobby. Where can you see butterflies? Butterflies are living
insects. There are about 17.000 kinds of bu eries. They live in most parts of the world, even
as far north as the Arctic Circle.
Butterflies have many colours and sizes. One of the smallest, the dwarf blue of South Africa
has a wing span of only 14 mm. The largest, the Queen Alexandria bird wing, has a wing span
of 28 cm.
All butterflies begin their lives as caterpillars which hatch from eggs. The caterpillars spend
their lives eating the plant they were hatched on. They change their skin several times as they
grow. When a caterpillar is fully grown it changes into chrysalis ( cocoon ) with a hard skin.
Inside this the chrysalis changes into an adult butterfly. When it is ready, the butterfly breaks
out and flies away to find a mate and lay eggs of its own.
Some butterflies migrate. They fly from one part of the world to another at certain times
of the year. One of the most famous migrating butterflies is the Monarch butterfly in North
America. In the summer it lives all over the United States, Canada and Alaska. In the autumn,
the butterflies gather together in groups. They fly south to Mexico, Florida and southern
California for the winter.
A) Answer the following questions:
1) How many kinds of living bu eries are there?
B) Put ( ) or ( x ):
1) Bu eries are harmful insects.
2) All bu eries migrate.
Marathon
What do you know about races? Can you run fast?
The Marathon is a very hard long - distance race of 42 19 km ( 26 miles 385 yards ). It
has been run in the Olympic Games since 1896. It was named a er a Greek soldier who ran
from the town of Marathon to Athens in 490 BC to bring news of a Greek Victory over the
Persians.
In 1908 there was a famous nish to the Olympic Marathon. At the end of the race a small
Italian, Dorando Pietri, staggered into the stadium in the lead. He collapsed twice in the last
100 meters and had to be helped over the nishing line. He was disqualied because of this,
but everyone remembers this as Dorando's Marathon.
The ocial distance for the Marathon is 26 miles 385 yards. The reason for this strange
distance is that Bri sh Olympic commi ee decided in 1908 to start the race from the royal
castle of Windsor and finish in front of the royal box in the stadium in London. This was
measured 26 miles 385 yards, a distance that has remained standard ever since. The world
record me for men over the distance is 2 hours 4 minutes and 55 seconds set in the Berlin
Marathon by Paul Tergat on 28th September, 2003. The world record for women was set by
Paula Radcli in London Marathon on 13th April, 2003 in 2 hours 15 minutes and 25 seconds.
A) Answer the following questions:
1) How long is the Marathon race?
