2 CLIL Geography lesson 1 Developed country New Zealand 1 How much do you know about New Zealand? True or False? Write T or F. 1 New Zealand is in the South Pacific Ocean. 2 The capital city is Auckland. 3 The native people are called Aborigines. 4 New Zealand is a republic million people live in New Zealand. 6 The weather is very cold. 2 Read the text about New Zealand and check your answers to Ex.1. Correct the false sentences. New Zealand is in the South Pacific Ocean. There are two islands, North and South. The capital city is Wellington, but the largest city is Auckland, with 1.3 million people. The population of New Zealand is 4.2 million. New Zealand is a multicultural society, with a mix of Polynesian, Asian, and European cultures. The first people to live there were the Maori, who arrived from Polynesia in about 800 AD. In 1642, a European explorer, Abel Janzoon Tasman from Holland, navigated around the islands, but 100 years passed before the next Europeans arrived. In 1840 the Maori signed a treaty with the British, and Queen Victoria became New Zealand s queen. Today, New Zealand is a constitutional monarchy and Queen Elizabeth II is the head of state. New Zealand is 12 hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time, so it is one of the first countries in the world to celebrate New Year s Day each year! New Zealand is famous for its sports and leisure activities, especially rugby. It is also famous for its beautiful countryside, as seen in films such as The Lord of the Rings. The weather in New Zealand is very diverse. In the north it is often warm and humid, but the south is near the Antarctic and the weather can be very cold. This climate makes New Zealand one of the most fascinating countries in the world snowy mountains, tropical rainforests, and beautiful golden beaches, all in one place!

Clean water is fundamental for good health. The water cycle does not change naturally. Many water problems are caused by nature. 4 Choose the correct alternative: a, b or c. 1 The water cycle a moves very quickly. b never stops. c starts in the oceans and finishes in the rivers. 2 Most precipitation a forms glaciers. b evaporates. c flows back into the sea. 3 We have a water crisis because a there are so many diseases. b we use too much water. c it doesn t rain enough. 4 Desalination a is a simple process. b costs a lot of money. c is the only solution to our water problems. 5 It is important to change our lifestyles because a there is enough water. b if everyone does something small, it can have a big positive impact. c one person can change everything. What do you think? 1 How much water do you use in a day? What do you use water for? 2 Do you think water should be free? Mini-project Find out some information about the water situation in your region. Where does the local water supply come from? Is the quality good? Are there ever any problems with the water supply? Write a short text about it. 3 CLIL Lessons lesson 3 Water The water cycle is the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the surface of the Earth. As the name suggests, it has no beginning or end. Water can change states from liquid to vapour to solid during the cycle, but the quantity of water on Earth remains constant over time. This is how it works: the sun heats water in the seas and oceans and causes plants to transpire on the land. The water evaporates into the air as water vapour, and then condenses into water droplets inside the clouds. As air currents move the clouds, the water droplets collide, grow, and fall out of the sky as precipitation in the form of ice and snow crystals, or rain. Some snow stays as ice caps and glaciers on mountains but most precipitation falls back into the sea and onto the land, where it enters the ground. Some water stays under the ground and in lakes, but eventually, by flowing from springs and along rivers in valleys, the water always returns to the ocean, where the water cycle started. Natural changes occur in the water cycle, but many of the changes we see today for example melting ice caps, droughts and floods are the result of human activities. We now have a global water crisis caused by agriculture, industry, the alteration of the chemical composition of the atmosphere, the construction of dams, deforestation, the removal of too much groundwater from wells, taking water from rivers, and urbanization. There is now too much human demand for usable (fresh) water and a lot of our water is polluted. Many people today still do not have access to safe water for drinking and washing, and this is the cause of about 88 percent of all diseases! Where can we find more water? Ironically, two thirds of the Earth s surface is covered in water, but the water in the oceans is full of salt and can only be used after desalination a very complicated and expensive process. According to the United Nations there is enough water for everyone, but water problems are often the result of bad management, corruption and poor regulation by governments. But one thing is certain we have to change our habits! So next time you brush your teeth, don t forget to turn off the tap while you are doing it. Water is precious, and small changes can make a big difference!

5 CLIL Geography lesson 4 Rivers 1 Match the words (1 4) to the definitions (a d). 1 river a the side of a river 2 river bank b the place where a river 3 ford meets the sea 4 river mouth c water that flows to the sea d part of a river where it s possible to cross 2 Read the text about rivers. Why have rivers been important? 3 Read the text again. True or false? Write T or F. Correct the false sentences. 1 Many people in Britain like rivers. 2 In Oxford it wasn t possible to cross the river. 3 All places with the word mouth in their name are inland. 4 Rivers were once important for transport. 5 Polluted rivers are a resource for agriculture. 4 Choose the correct alternative: a, b or c. 1 Many cities developed on rivers because a it was easy to transport goods on boats. b you could get a suntan. c they are a relaxing place. 2 The canal system in Britain a has given the names to lots of cities. b was first created by the Romans. c developed very late. 3 A lot of towns and cities a have strange names. b have meeting places around a river. c include a word in their names related to rivers. 4 In the past rivers and canals were especially important a for producing raw materials. b for the development of the industrial system. c to use water for pottery. 5 Today rivers a are still useful. b are not used anymore. c cannot be a resource anymore. What do you think? 1 Do you live near water (a river, lake or the sea)? 2 What types of activities do people do on the water near where you live? Mini-project Think of a big river in your country, and find out some information about it. Write a short text, including any information about the influence it had on the economy and lifestyle of the local people in the past. Rivers of life If you go to Britain in the summer, you will almost certainly see hundreds of people walking and lying by the riverside, trying to get a suntan or relaxing on little boats. Rivers are very popular, and they always have been, but for lots of different reasons. Since the beginning of time, man has used them to find fresh water for drinking, irrigating and cleaning. After man invented the boat, rivers also became a fundamental resource for transport. It is not surprising then that over time, lots of towns and cities developed along the banks of navigable rivers. Britain is a country with a particularly high number of rivers (and later canals, which were developed on an earlier Roman system), and the names of many cities reveal their connection with water. A city with the name ford for example (Oxford, Stratford, etc) was certainly founded on a river at a point where the water was low and it was possible to cross (at Oxford, people could take their oxen across). A place name including the word bridge will obviously also indicate the presence of a river (Cambridge, Trowbridge, etc) and a city ending in mouth (Portsmouth, Exmouth, Bournemouth) was built at the mouth of a river, where it meets the sea. River life has also influenced the language in other ways. For example, in old English a rival was someone who took water from the other side of the river bank from you. In Britain the river and canal system played a vital role in the development of the Industrial Revolution by allowing mass transit of raw materials and finished products (for example, coal and pottery). Unfortunately, lots of our rivers became so polluted that they were more of a problem for agriculture than a resource, but today many of them are clean again, so they can be a valuable part of our environment once more. Today rivers are no longer used much for the transport of goods, but they are still important for giving us water for irrigation, for fishing and of course, for having fun.

6 CLIL History lesson 5 Democracy in Ancient Greece 1 What do you know about politics and democracy? Match the words (1 4) to the definitions (a d). 1 elect a to have the same opinion as another person 2 citizen b a person legally belonging to a country or state 3 slaves c to choose a government or public figure by voting 4 agree d people who are forced to work without pay 2 Read about democracy in Ancient Greece. How was it different from modern democracies? The birthplace of democracy Democracy and democratic are two of the most used words in contemporary politics, but do we all know what they really mean? The origin of the word democracy is Greek. It simply means the people s government and it is exactly what happened in Attica, the region of Athens, around the 4th century BC. Athens democracy was direct, so all citizens participated in the government personally and not through representatives, as we do today. However, it was only open to men over 30 and they had to complete their military service before they could have a role in public life. This obviously excluded younger men, women, slaves and foreigners. In Ancient Greece there was not a government and an opposition. Each individual had the opportunity to propose a law and the Assembly voted using a simple majority system. Usually the Assembly voted by show of hands, but for important votes they introduced the pebbles system. Each voter could use a white pebble to agree with the law and a black pebble to disagree. This practice made counting the votes more accurate it was easier to count pebbles rather than the hands of hundreds of people! Public administrators were not elected or nominated, but selected by a lottery system. This was a guarantee against ambition and greed. Of course, not all citizens had the right qualities for the different tasks, but they solved the problem by creating groups of people who worked together and learned from each other. The only elected people were officials with two specific positions: those managing large sums of money and the generals of the army. The first group came from the richest families, an effective strategy to stop people stealing public money; the second came from military ranks because they needed specific experience. It is interesting to note that our word idiot comes from the Greek word idiotes, meaning a private person, someone who was not interested in politics, and it became an insult because these people were not respected by other citizens.

True or false? Write T or F. Correct the false sentences. 1 In Athens all citizens were part of the government. 2 Women could participate in government. 3 The government had an opposition. 4 The pebbles system was more precise. 5 There weren t any elected public officials. 4 Choose the correct alternative: a, b or c. 1 You could not have a role in public life if a you did not finish military training. b you were 35. c you had children. 2 Proposing a law was a open only to the majority. b open only to some people. c open only to the government. 3 Voting by show of hands was a restricted to special occasions. b a very unpopular system. c difficult to count. 4 Some officials were elected from rich families because a rich people did not need to steal. b they needed experience with money. c they knew the right strategies. 5 Idiots a were stupid people. b weren t interested in participating in public life. c were not very interesting. What do you think? 1 Is politics a subject you are interested in? Why? / Why not? 2 Imagine you are the Prime Minister of Italy. What are the first three things you will change?
