The title of the text could be

The western alphabet, which is used in Europe, the Americas, Africa, Australia and New
Zealand as well as in other countries, originated in the middle east. The people who gave the
world this alphabet were the Phoneacians, a people who established colonies all over the
Mediterranean, including Carthage in Africa and Gades in Spain. In their alphabet, the letters
were represented by little pictures which represented sounds.The Phoneacian A was aelph,
which means "bull". and it was made from a little picture of a bull's head. The letter B was beth
which meant "house", and showed the round-roofed buildings which you can still see today in
Syria.

The Phoneacians had contact with another nation of sailors, the Greeks, with whom they
fought and traded. The Greeks also started to use the Phoneacian alphabet. They changed the
names so aelph and beth became alpha and beta. The shapes of the letters are the same but
they have been turned sideways. If you know any Greek, you can try turning the letters around
again, and see how they look. You will see that the curve on the right of the Greek A becomes
the horns of a little bull.

Of course, the first two letters of the alphabet give it its name. Over the years there have been
changes. Latin developed an alphabet with some different letters to the Greeks, and other
letters have been added since. But really westerners are using the same system of writing
which has served them so well for thousands of years.
Seleccione una:
A. the phoneacians trade with the greeks.
B. how the name of our alphabet was given.
C. latin influence in the alphabet.
D. origin of western alphabet.

My only ambition is ‘to teach you how to eat’ says Michael Montignac, a French
business executive. He has invented a method of healthy eating, which is based on the
idea that we should not eat less, we should simply eat the right things – the right
carbohydrates and eat the right fats-which are traditionally part of a Mediterranean way
of eating. The Montignac method is not a diet, it is a philosophy of life, which lets people
be ‘fit, healthy, energetic and slim without counting calories’.
In Montignac’s method you don’t have to worry about…

like the owner of one of the world’s most successful computer companies. His
manner is polite, his voice is quiet and his clothes are clearly not expensive. Two

So what does he do with his money? It’s all used for business. But some people in

someone in another company picks up the phone to hear that quiet voice saying
that he’s the new boss.

According to the following text

The western alphabet, which is used in Europe, the Americas, Africa, Australia and New
Zealand as well as in other countries, originated in the middle east. The people who gave the
world this alphabet were the Phoneacians, a people who established colonies all over the
Mediterranean, including Carthage in Africa and Gades in Spain. In their alphabet, the letters
were represented by little pictures which represented sounds. The Phoneacian A was aelph,
which means "bull". and it was made from a little picture of a bull's head. The letter B was beth
which meant "house", and showed the round-roofed buildings which you can still see today in
Syria.

The Phoneacians had contact with another nation of sailors, the Greeks, with whom they
fought and traded. The Greeks also started to use the Phoneacian alphabet. They changed the
names so aelph and beth became alpha and beta. The shapes of the letters are the same but
they have been turned sideways. If you know any Greek, you can try turning the letters around
again, and see how they look. You will see that the curve on the right of the Greek A becomes
the horns of a little bull.

Of course, the first two letters of the alphabet give it its name. Over the years there have been
changes. Latin developed an alphabet with some different letters to the Greeks, and other
letters have been added since. But really westerners are using the same system of writing
which has served them so well for thousands of years.
Seleccione una:
A. westerns have been using the same alphabet for years.
B. Latin used exactly the same letters as Greek.
C. the name of the alphabet was given after the last letters of it.
D. the current alphabet was created by the Greeks.

Retroalimentación
In the last paragraph the author says that westerns are using the same system of writing that
has been used for thousand of years.

BREAKING THE ICE
Michael Sharp visits an outdoor pool.

It's just before 7 a.m. and I'm at an outdoor swimming pool in London, where the temperature
the water is only 11 degrees above freezing! Amazingly, there are already eight people
swimming.

I had intended to discover, by taking a swim myself, why anyone would want to swim in such
cold water. However, in the end, I decided to ask people instead. Peter Smith has been a
swimmer here for three years, coming every morning before work. "It's wonderful on a cold
winter morning", he says, "I thought it would make me healthier and haven't been ill once since
I started".

All the swimmers here say the same thing. They all feel fitter. However, not everyone agrees
with them. Some doctors say it helps fight illness, while others say it could be dangerous,
especially for your heart.

I asked Peter what they did on the days when the pool was frozen. "That's easy", he said.
"There's a place in the middle where the ice is thin and easy to break. You have to avoid the
sides where the ice is thicker. I did try to swim there once just to see what it was like, but I
found that it was impossible to break throught the ice.

I would like to be able to say that I too dived happily into the water and swam a couple of
hundred metres. But the truth is, fearing the worst, I walked very carefully into the pool, stood
there almost in shock and then got out again after 30 seconds before I became a block of ice!
What can a reader find out from this text?
