| When large numbers of people move from their homes in country areas to find better-paid jobs in towns and cities, the villages and farms they once lived in are often left vac ant. No one wants to buy the houses because they cannot make money out of them. This phenomenon, which is called rural depopulation, can lead to overcrowding in cities as well as deserted country areas and is a major socioeconomic problem nowadays. One example of this phenomenon is the Garrigues area of Spain, about one hour’s drive from Barcelona. The area has a Mediterranean climate, but because it is at high altitude and not close to the sea, winter temperatures are quite low. The area has an annual rainfall of 482mm falls in only 47 days of the year, during the autumn and spring. Historically, this was a successful agricultural area; on the higher ground, the farmers grew almonds, while in the river valleys, wheat, corn, beans and sunflowers were the traditional crops. The area was renowned for its high-quality olive oil which was grown mainly for export. The population of the area was at its greatest about 150 years ago, when a typical settlement might have had 500 inhabitants, whereas now some villages have as few as 100 permanent inhabitants. As farming became less and less profitable, and unemployment grew, the population began to move to the cities to find work. This trend started in 1860 and has continued until today. Now, some villages consist mainly of elderly people. The area is suffering from the effects of depopulation, poor infrastructure and deserted farms, for example. In some parts of Europe in recent years, however, the move from the country to the city has been reversed. as many wealthy people move to the countryside to escape from the overcrowding, pollution and tension of city life. Some are moving permanently, but many are buying holiday or weekend homes which are empty for much of the year. |

Nowadays many of us spend free time playing computer games, talking on the internet or watching television. But have you ever wondered how young people passed the time in the past? Before the invention of Nintendo, computers, television, radio and other modern-day entertainment devices we take for granted today, children had to make their own fun, often literally. The games of the past tended to involve groups socializing and playing a well-
known game with well-known rules. They also often utilized items from their everyday life, such as rocks, shells sand and almost any other everyday item you can think of. Here are just a few games they enjoyed.
Al-Khabsah
Al-Khabsah is a simple game, normally played by groups of girls. Each girl brings a few simple items such as shells, stones, beads and any other items the players can get their hands on. First, the girls form a pile, or cone, of sand and then wet it to make it more solid. The first girl places one of her items within the pile, and then splits this structure into smaller piles, thereby hiding her item within one of the smaller ones. At the given signal, the other girls search through these piles for the item that has been hidden. Whichever girl finds the item wins not only the game but also the item itself. It is then her turn to place an item in the large sand pile and repeat the game.
Dawama
Dawama is a game played by two players. Each player has a spinning top, or Dawama, shaped like a cone and made from wood and string. The centre, or core, of the spinning top is taken out and replaced with a small piece of metal, made by a blacksmith, to make it stronger. The players wind a piece of string round it and pull it off quickly, making the cone spin rapidly on its point. The two players try to damage each other’s tops. The winner is the player whose Dawama suffers the least damage.
Ambar
Ambar is a team sport which uses rocks and balls. The first team throws a ball at a pile od seven rocks in an attempt to scatter them. When they have done this, the second team take the ball. The first team then have toattempt to pile the rocks on top of each other, whilst the second team attempt to hit them with the ball. If a player is hit, or tagged with the ball, then he is out of the game. The first team win if they manage to pile all the rocks up without losing all their players. The second team win if they manage to get all the first team players out the game.
So there you have three classic Kuwaiti games. May be next time you’re thinking about playing the latest video game or watching TV, you’ll think of these traditional games instead and go and see your friends. Who knows, may be you’ll even invent some exciting games of your own

A. Read the following passage carefully, then answer the questions below: The seven summits
On February 5th , 2004, Kuwaiti climber Zed ‘Zeddy’ Al Refai became the first Arab man to ascend the highest mountain on every continent. He had reached the top of Mount Aconcagua in Argentina, South America, in four days. This was five years after he had climbed Mount McKinley, the highest peak in North America. Apart from exhaustion and a little frost-bite, Zeddy was in good health and very happy to have joined the elite ‘seven summit’ club.
These seven summits include Mount Everest, the highest mountain on Earth. Zeddy’s first attempt at Everest had almost ended in calamity and a member of his team had to carry him down the mountain and save his life. Zeddy showed his determination. He had been preparing for his second attempt for many months, and in 2003 he was able to get to the top of Mount Everest. He knew it would be the hardest thing he had ever done and was nervous despite the fact that he was an experienced climber. Conditions were perilous and for much of the climb he had been fighting extreme cold, strong winds, dizzying heights and dangerously low levels of oxygen, but he was able to reach the top. It was very difficult, but he knew he had a great team supporting him and this helped him to keep going.
One of Zeddy’s aims in climbing the seven peaks was to highlight the importance of protecting the environment in the Gulf region and to inspire other Arabs to become involved in the sport.
The year after climbing Aconcagua, Zeddy travelled to the mountains in Pakistan to help his fellow Muslims following the huge earthquake and take part in reconstruction efforts. You may think that Zed Al Refai had had enough of mountains after all these expeditions, but the following year he scaled the Matterhorn, a difficult and dangerous mountain in Switzerland.

| Interview 1 . Interviewer What made you so interested space travel? Speaker 1 I visited the Scientific Centre in Kuwait two years ago and we were able to speak with astronauts on the International Space Station. Establishing contact with them was one of the most awe-inspiring moments of my life Interviewer Thank you very much |
| Interview 2 Interviewer Can ask you what you think of space travel? Are you for or against it Speaker 2 I’m completely against it! I think it’s an abhorrent waste of money and don’t understand why they are doing it. What is it for? Do they think that when there are too many people on Earth, we can all move to the Moon or Mars? If I were in charge, I’d discontinue all space travel immediately. Interviewer But maybe there is sentient life on other planets. Speaker 2 In my opinion it is obvious humans are the only living beings in the universe. If there had been life on Mars, we would have found it. Interviewer Thank you very much. |
| Interview 3 ? Interviewer Can I ask you what you think of space travel? Are you in favor of it or not Speaker 3 I think all kinds of exploration are important. Human beings are inherently curious. We want to explore everything in our Universe. If intrepid explorers in the past hadn’t set sail in their boats, they wouldn’t have discovered other civilizations. The world would be a very different place today. Science and exploration can either move forward and help man to progress or stand still, which will be to the detriment of technological advances. Interviewer But space exploration is so expensive. We could use the money to end poverty in the world, or to feed the hungry. Speaker 3 I agree we should try to end poverty, but not by halting space exploration. If we had stopped space exploration in 1960, men wouldn’t have walked on the Moon. Thousands of beneficial innovations have evolved from the work of space scientists, particularly in digital technology, food production, medicine and alternative energy technology. Interviewer Thank you very much |

Summary Making
| In a paragraph of FOUR sentences ONLY, summarize and paraphrase the following passage in an answer to the following question ? What are the differences between Venus and the Earth Some people contend that Venus is the Earth’s sister planet because there are many similarities between the two. They are comparable in size and are approximately the same age. However, there is also much contrast between Venus and the Earth. Venus is devoid of oceans and has a very heavy atmosphere, 96.5% of which is composed of carbon dioxide. Because the atmosphere is so heavy, Venus has an extremely high surface temperature (459 C). A Venusian day is equal to 243 Earth days. This is longer than its year, which is equivalent to 225 Earth days. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. |

The Red Planet
Mars has held people’s fascination on Earth for a long time because it is the only other planet with the potential to sustain life. However, as with the other planets in our solar system (except Earth), its atmosphere lacks oxygen and is not conducive to human habitation.

Summary Making
| Read the following passage, then do as required Writing is one of the most important inventions of humanity. It allows us to record our history, ideas, and discoveries. As writing developed, so did writing tools. First, the early cavemen used brushes made from animal hair to paint pictures on cave walls. The pictures usually told stories about their hunts. After several centuries, the Egyptians invented a simple kind of pen made of reed, which is a tall plant like grass. Later, the Chinese used metal tools to carve their characters into turtle shells and cattle bones. After many decades, people developed different writing tools such as fountain pens and ballpoint pens with tiny ink tanks in them. Only time will tell what writing tools our children and grandchildren will be using in the future. In a paragraph of FOUR sentences ONLY, summarize and paraphrase the passage above in answer to the following question: |
How have the writing tools developed throughout history
