   English scientists have found a medical cure in an ancient book. Recently, they discovered an ancient recipe that fights a deadly bacteria that makes people sick. The recipe comes from a thousand -year- old book called
"Bald's Leechbook." The book was found in a University library in England.

   The medieval cure works against a type of deadly bacteria. There are good bacteria and bad bacteria. MRSA (pronounced mersa) is one kind that causes infections. It is
very difficult to treat. Most medicines do not work against MRSA, which makes it very dangerous.

Mixing The Old Recipe

   One thousand years ago, there was a medicine for eye infections. An herbalist, or healer, would make the medicine. An herbalist helped people who were sick by using herbs. To make up the recipe, the herbalist would take a brass pot. He or she would mix fluids from a cow’s stomach and a special type of garlic in the pot.

   Christina Lee, a professor, translated the recipe from the Old English language. She asked scientists to make the recipe and test it on MRSA bacteria.

   Nottingham scientist Freya Harrison took the challenge. Scientists in Harrison’s lab followed the recipe. In her lab, the thousand -year- old recipe was a powerful killer. Only about 1 in 1,000 MRSA bacteria cells survived the ancient drug. Later, the researchers tested the drug on mice. It killed 9 out of 10 MRSA bacteria.

Jana was reading an exciting story when her friend Salma called her. Read the dialogue between Jana and Salma to answer the questions.
Salma: What are you doing Jana?
Jana: I am reading an interesting story about travelling and travellers?
Salma: What is it called? Who is the author? And what is it about?
Jana: Around the World in 80 Days. The author is Jules Verne. It is about a fictional English man who was trying to win a bet to travel around the world in 80 days.
Salma: It seems like a nice story. I will search the Internet and read it. Jana, I remembered that our English teacher told us to prepare a dialogue about a journey. I have an idea!
Jana: What is it?
Salma: We will prepare an imaginary journey for Ibn Battuta. You will be Ibn Battuta and I will be the interviewer. We will prepare a dialogue of questions and answers.
Jana: I loved the idea.]]> 2021-05-04 21:46:00 UTC https://padlet.com/rahoof6neno/co4uo0ny70p8pihx/wish/1491828734 rahoof6neno https://padlet.com/rahoof6neno/co4uo0ny70p8pihx/wish/1491828980 1. The word “story” was described by 3 different words. What are they?

This means to “end hunger, achieve food security and improved
nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture.”
- In pairs, think about these two important questions:
1) What is hunger? How can we measure it?
2) What is food security? How can we measure it?
Let’s read more about saving food:
Every year one-third of all the food we produce around the world is lost or wasted. Isn’t it a pity to waste food while so many people are not able to meet their daily food needs. So when is food wasted between leaving the farm and reaching our plate? Food goes through a number of stages called the food chain. Sadly, food is wasted across
the whole chain and that’s not all. When we waste food, we are also wasting all the resources that went into its production like land, water, effort, and energy. Just think of bread and the long way from the farm to our table. Did you know that to make loaf bread you need 1,000 litres of water. That’s a lot of water! Moreover, rotting food in landfill lets off a very harmful gas called methane. This means that wasting food harms the environment, leading to climate change.
There’s good news though. By following some simple tips, we can all help reduce food waste at home, save money, and help the environment, and support people in need. All together, we can help our community. We just
need to take action and care.]]> 2021-05-30 08:19:01 UTC https://padlet.com/rahoof6neno/co4uo0ny70p8pihx/wish/1571325727 rahoof6neno https://padlet.com/rahoof6neno/co4uo0ny70p8pihx/wish/1571325902 1. Take notes of the food your family throws away and try to see why. Find out what went wrong.
2. Think about how to change habits and reduce food waste at home.
3. How can you and your family shop smart? Make a list of everything you have in the fridge/ kitchen.
4. Plan your meals for the week and make a shopping list before going to buy food.
5. After having completed tasks 1- 4, prepare a speech to tell others about your experience with not wasting food.
6. After writing your speech, switch with a peer and do the following:
correct spelling mistakes and use of capitalization, period, question marks and exclamation marks.
