In everyday English, vegetables are savoury plants that you can eat, such as potatoes, cabbage and carrots. Some plants that are botanically fruit, like tomatoes, some types of peppers and aubergines are usually considered to be vegetables. We often use the word greens to refer to leafy green vegetables like spinach, broccoli and cabbage.

3. Use less electricity. Did you know that solar energy is a clean energy? Clean energies are produced by methods that don’t release* greenhouse* gases and other pollutants*.

They are better for the planet.

1. Pick up rubbish in rivers and on the beach.

Rubbish is dangerous* for fish and birds. Plastic is particularly dangerous* because it can cause malnutrition*, it can block animal’s intestines or it can poison* them.

2. Plant a tree. Trees help to reduce pollution.

They transform carbon dioxide into oxygen, which we need to breathe*. They also stabilize the soil* and give homes and food to wildlife*. And they are great places for children to play in!

Music

Learning more about music by playing the oboe…

“I feel happy when I’m playing the oboe…”

The beginnings* “I started* learning to play the oboe two years ago*. Then I started* to go to a music school in Alcobendas, near Madrid, and the first thing* I learnt was the note Do. I wanted to play the oboe because I think wind* instruments are fun! My parents thought* it was a good idea too*.

I have a class every week – it lasts* an hour. And I practise four days a week at home.”

Valentina and her music “I feel happy when I’m playing the oboe, although* I have* to concentrate if I want the tune* to come* out right. I play much better now and I can play some songs, but I still* need* a lot of patience and concentration.

The oboe isn’t an easy instrument to play and I have* to practise for hours to play a song correctly.

But I think that now I’m much more patient in general and I concentrate better. I like playing easy songs best because I get a feeling* of achievement* when I play something without* making mistakes*.” achievement: logro, realización ago (two years…): hace dos años although: aunque anyone: cualquiera I LOVE ENGLISH JUNIOR 117

And more…

“I’d* like to continue to learn the oboe and I’d* like to learn more about music.

When I get* better at playing, I’d* like to give a concert. I’ve never really thought* about giving* up because I’ve got a great teacher who plays really well and gives me lots of encouragement* too*. And I’d recommend that anyone* who wants to learn the oboe should* do it.

But they should* be prepared for hours of practice!”.

The squirrel, a great acrobat!

Always on* the move, the red squirrel spends* its days running from the ground* to the top* of trees in its search* for food!

I

t’s daybreak*. A squirrel wakes up in its drey* (that’s the name of its nest in a fork* in the branches* of a tree). It pokes* its nose out.

Has anybody* seen it? The squirrel hurtles* down the tree trunk and runs to quench* its thirst in the nearby* pond*, before grooming* itself to get* rid of fleas* from its beautiful red fur*…

Once* it’s nice and clean, it’s time for breakfast… and lunch… and tea*… All* day long, the squirrel roams* around its territory, munching* acorns*, fruit, pine* cones, mushrooms* and nuts*…

The little rodent* loves them all! And when it’s not eating, it hides* food to build* up some reserves that it will* try to find again when the cold comes.

chase: persecución close (that was…): ¡por los pelos! coils up: se enrosca counterbalance: contrapeso daybreak: salida del sol

When the squirrel is having a little siesta, perched on a spruce* tree, a pine marten* appears. Its sworn* enemy! A mad chase* in the branches* follows. The marten* is fast and agile. But the squirrel manages* to shake* it off by jumping from tree to tree. Phew*, that was really close*…

The sun has disappeared below the horizon.

With a full* tummy*, the squirrel is back in its drey*. After a last wash, it coils* up under its tail-blanket* and falls asleep. It needs to get* its strength back because tomorrow it will have to run round the woods* again to get* ready for winter!

Name: Red squirrel.

Footprint Family: Rodents*.

Adult size: 40 cm from its muzzle * to the end of its tail.

Address: European woods* and forests*.

We make our own* newspaper* Every year Bolivar School in Paris makes its own* newspaper*, Bonne Mine… a very exciting adventure!

Lots of preparation At the beginning* of the year, the class representatives from the second to the sixth years of primary meet* at an editorial committee.

The aim* is to choose* subjects* to put in their newspaper*. Gaston and Louise, representatives of third year, present their class’s subjects*: their letters to a class on the island of Reunion and the exhibition* Space Invaders by the French street* artist Invader. When everyone agrees*, the representatives go back to their class to write their articles with their classmates*.

Down* to work!

Internet is very useful* for research*.

To write their articles, the third year is divided into teams*. The teacher prepares some questions to help* the pupils*.

Thanks to the visit to the museum, we have lots to say”, writes Louise.

Everybody, big and small, works hard* to make the newspaper*.

Bonne Mine is a newspaper* with information, jokes* and games in it!

So* proud!

“I like making the newspaper* because we write it”, says Louise. “We don’t invent anything but we describe what we’ve done* or seen”.

Let’s explore

We are zebras

With their stripes*, zebras are some of the most recognizable wild* animals in Africa!

I am a plains* zebra, the smallest and most common species of zebra.

I live in the grasslands* and woodlands* of Africa. There are two other species of zebra in Africa, Grevy’s zebra and the mountain zebra. Zebras live in herds*.

We are members of the horse family. During the dry* season, we travel long distances to find* food and water. Often, on our travels, our herds* get bigger as other zebras join* us. Sometimes there are thousands* of us!

Adult zebras measure up to 1.5 m at the shoulder.

Our stripes* protect us from predators when we are in a herd*. Each* zebra has different stripes* and* so we can recognize each* other!

large ears

short mane

tail

One hour after a baby zebra is born, it can run. It follows* its mother’s stripes*. In* fact, it follows* its mother for about a year and that* way it learns what plants to eat. But it has to be very careful* because there are lots of predators around!

We have unusual teeth: we have special incisors at the front for biting* the grass and large molars at the back for crushing* and grinding* our food.

Hello! We are the 6th Form at Sol i Vent school in Vilafant (Girona). We are 11 years old.

The school has got a subscription to I love English Junior.

This magazine is very interesting.

We love the cooking section, the crazy news readings, the animals, the sports and the games.

The “Harry Potter studios” article was amazing. Thank you for everything.

I’m from Madrid.

Hugs and kisses,

I have read them all!

Pages 16-17. Junior detective: 1. What object was used in the sabotage? A bowling ball is blocking the pipe.

2. Find the places where the culprit went to sabotaje the skating rink. The culprit went to the bowling alley to get the ball. Then he or she went into the basement to put it in the pipe.

3. Find out who went to these places: one of them is the culprit. Only the people who work in the building have the key to the basement. That eliminates Axel Triple, Sally Shaky and Fanny Fontaine. Among the other suspects, only Spicken Span and Betty Bowler went to the bowling alley.

But Betty Bowler arrived an hour after it opened. That was 2 o’clock but the sabotage occurred before 1.30 p.m. So Spicken Span is the culprit.
