PROJECT 1

READING

1 Read about a trip around the world. Answer the questions.


Nelly Bly worked as a journalist for the American newspaper, the New York World.
Her real name was Elizabeth Jane Cochran. On November 14, 1889, she went on
a trip around the world for the newspaper. She wore a long dress and a coat, and
she only had a small bag with her. First she went from New Jersey (USA) to
Southampton (UK) by boat. She was very ill while she was at sea. From England,
she went to France, and she visited Jules Verne, the author of the book Around
the World in Eighty Days. She travelled through many countries, including Italy,
Egypt and Hong Kong, and then she went to Japan. She loved the beautiful
clothes there. Nelly's trip home was very long: she had to cross the Pacific Ocean,
and she was on a boat for two weeks. She arrived in San Francisco on January
21. But Nelly wanted to do her trip faster than the people in Jules Verne's book,
and she was late. The director of the newspaper paid for a private train to take her
back to New Jersey. She arrived on January 25, 1890 after travelling for 72
days. Nelly Bly was the first woman - and the fastest person then – to travel
around the world.

2 Read about Joe’s helicopter adventure and choose the correct option, A
or B.
My Adventure in a Helicopter!
Last Sunday, I went in a helicopter for the first time. I went with my mother and the
pilot. My mother went in a helicopter with her father once when she was a child
and really liked it. The helicopter ride was a birthday present for me and I was
very excited.
We left the house to go for the helicopter ride. It was a sunny day, but there were
a few clouds. My mother was worried about the clouds. The helicopter pilot said
the weather was OK though and so I didn’t worry.
It was amazing to be so high in the sky. I loved it. I looked out of the window and
down at the land below. It was beautiful up in the sky. The sound of the helicopter
was quite loud, but I liked it. After about half an hour, it became very cloudy. The
clouds became very dark. Then I heard the sound of thunder and I felt very
frightened. We saw lightning twice. We decided to go back down to land. The
storm got louder and louder and the rain made it difficult to see. My mum didn’t
look happy.
The pilot was very good. He got us down to the ground. We ran through the rain
into a building and drank some hot chocolate. The storm lasted for a while, but
then the sun came out. The pilot took us back up into the sky and we had a
wonderful helicopter ride. I was a very happy birthday boy!
