Community Norms and values
It is important to learn how to live together; to develop an understanding- comprehension - of other’s behaviors in
order to create an equitable, peaceful, caring and democratic society, where everybody respect each other. That´s
why, it is so important to know some basic values and norms that allow people to live in harmony.
Tolerance – an openness to others; curiosity; perhaps even respect, a willingness to accept or TOLERATE
somebody/something, especially opinions or behavior that you may not agree with, or people.
Norm: Respect personal space, rights and property of others, and opinions.
Reciprocity – Putnam (2000) describes generalized reciprocity thus: ‘I’ll do this for you now, without expecting
anything immediately in return, and perhaps without even knowing you, confident someday, you or someone else will
return the favor’.
Norm: Cooperation among people and to help each other.
Trust – the confident expectation that people, institutions and things will act in a consistent, honest and appropriate
way. To belief that somebody/something is good, sincere, honest, etc. and will not try to harm or deceive you:
Norm: To be honest-not to steal or damage other´s belongings.
Answer the following questions individually in your notebooks.
1. Why is important to learn how to live together? ____________________________________________
2. Reciprocity is:
a. To help people without caring if he/she will help you in the future
b. To be honest

What does she/he look like?
Para describir la apariencia física de personas en ingles utilizamos el verbo to-be mas el adjetivo.
Examples:
She is tall
They are fat
She is slim
Cuando nos referimos a los ojos, el cabello usamos el verbo “Have” mas el adjetivo
Ejemplos:
He has short hair
You have black hair
She has blue eyes
His hair is short
Your hair is black
Her eyes are blue
27
Para saber qué aspecto tiene alguien, su apariencia física, etc., se utiliza el verbo look like:
What does he look like? - ¿Qué aspecto tiene (él)?
What does she look like? - ¿Qué aspecto tiene (ella)?
La respuesta, mediante adjetivos, se referiría por tanto al aspecto físico de la persona:
tall – alto/a
thin – delgado/a
short – bajo/a
big - grande
fat – gordo/a
small - pequeño/a
0 a su edad de manera general:
young – joven
old – viejo/a
middle-aged - mediana edad
Y quizás también al color/tono del pelo (hair), su longitud y forma:
fair – claro/a
long – largo/a
straight – liso/a
dark – oscuro/a
short – corto/a
curly – rizado/a
Los colores como black (negro), blond/e (rubio/a), blue (azul), green (verde), etc, en estos casos se utilizan
para describir el cabello y los ojos. Observe que brown (marrón) para el pelo es castaño.
a woman with brown hair – una mujer con el pelo castaño
a man with blue eyes - un hombre con los ojos azules
Observe que en inglés la palabra hair (pelo), al igual que en español, es un sustantivo no contable cuando
se refiere al cabello en si, por lo tanto no se puede decir hairs con este sentido.
Recuerde que las palabras quite y very se utilizan para modificar los adjetivos:
tall – alto/a
fat – gordo/a
quite tall – bastante alto/a
quite fat – bastante gordo/a
very tall – muy alto/a
very fat – muy gordo/a
He´s thin. – He´s quite thin. – He´s very thin.
(Él) es delgado. – (Él) es bastante delgado. – (Él) es muy delgado.
En inglés británico la manera habitual para describir el pelo (hair), los ojos (eyes), la barba (beard), el bigote
(moustache), etc., que tiene alguien, utiliza have/has got, que se puede contraer:
I've got long dark hair. - Tengo el pelo largo oscuro.
She´s got big brown eyes. - (Ella) tiene ojos grandes castaños.
He's got short hair and green eyes. - (Él) tiene el pelo corto y los ojos verdes.
They've got fair hair. - Tienen el pelo claro.
Como ya explicamos, en inglés norteamericano se utiliza have/has y no se contrae:
I have a beard and brown hair. - Tengo barba y el pelo castaño.
He has a moustache and short hair. - (Él) tiene bigote y el pelo corto.
We have dark hair and blue eyes. - Tenemos el pelo oscuro y los ojos azules.
They have straight black hair. - Tienen el pelo liso negro.

Ingrid McFarlane
Zoo Keeper
When I graduated from high school at eighteen, I got a job at a zoo as a student keeper. Now, five years later,
things have changed – I have passed my exams and I am a fully trained animal keeper.
The money is not good. I only get $15,000 a year. You have to be outside in rain and snow, which is hard work,
and you get very dirty. But this doesn't matter to me because animals are the most important thing in my life!

There are a hundred monkeys and fifty deer in my part of the zoo and I give them their food and clean their
houses. I also need to watch them carefully to be sure that they are all well. In fact, rhinos are my favorite animals
and so last year I went to Africa with a colleague for a month to study them.
The zoo is open every day and I work five different days each week. I live in a small apartment twenty minutes
away and I get up at ten to seven and start work at eight. The first thing I do when I get home at quarter after five
is take a shower!

Imagine if everyone in your street suddenly came out into the road one day and started singing together. Singing
teacher Ruth Black believes it would make everyone so friendly that they would never walk past each other again
without saying hello.
Singing helps people live in peace together, she says. All over the world people have always sung together and in
most places they still do, but in England it is no longer traditional. Nowadays, says Ruth, people only sing together
in churches and football grounds, although it could be done anywhere. Everyone is able to sing, she says, but
most of us either think we can't or have forgotten what we learned as children. However, as with everything
musical, you need to practice and the same applies to your voice. Ruth believes that singing itself brings other
benefits. It encourages good breathing, for example. Through singing, people often become more confident and
also learn to control stress. But more than anything, it brings people together.
When Ruth first started singing, there was little opportunity to sing with others. Then,
through a friend, she discovered an excellent singing class and became so keen that she started running her own
classes. These are held twice a month for all singers, whatever their level, and are now enormously successful.
31. What is the writer trying to do in this article?
A. explain why singing has become less popular everywhere
B. describe a teacher's ideas about the importance of singing
C. advertise a teacher's singing classes
D. encourage children to learn to sing
32. What can the reader find out from the article?
A. how singing is something anyone can do
B. where the best places to learn to sing are
C. why traditional singing has disappeared
D. how to improve your voice
33. How does Ruth think singing with other people can help you?
A. You learn to breathe more easily.
B. You are able to improve your speaking.
C. You can get to know other people.
D. You become a confident musician.
34. What made Ruth start her own class?
A. She couldn't find a suitable class.
B. She was asked to teach people she knew.
C. She wanted to improve her own teaching.
D. She enjoyed going to a singing class herself.

Many major cities in the world today have large populations of people who have recently arrived; they have
emigrated from other countries. Perhaps you, too, have left a familiar place to come to a new city or a new

The United States is now becoming a non-smoking society. Across the country, hundreds of towns and cities, and
even entire states, are passing strict laws to control the sale and use of cigarettes. In New York, for example,
smoking is illegal in public buildings, hospitals, schools, banks, stores, movie theaters, taxi-cabs, and restrooms, to
name a few places. In addition, smoking is prohibited anywhere in the U.S. on airline flights that last two hours or
less. And now many private companies have also made rules prohibiting cigarette smoking. At least 40% of
American companies restrict smoking by their employees. Company policies are mostly of three kinds: they
prohibit smoking by employees when they are working, they hire only non-smokers, or they force workers who
smoke to quit smoking.

People are living longer in the United States. As a result, more and more middle aged adults are becoming
caretakers of their aging parents. When their parents can no longer care for themselves, these adults stay at
home to care for them in much the same way they cared for their own children. Playing the role of "parent sitter"
is quite difficult and frustrating. For example, an aging parent may become blind. No longer able to see, the old
person needs his or her children to perform many every day jobs. Another example is the parent who becomes
brain damaged during the aging process. Natural roles are then reversed, as children are forced to care for their
parents as if their parents were children.

A. very young people.
B. ancient people.
C. very old people.
D. people in their 50's.
