Tarek : I’m reading information for my science project. It’s about a new kind of fridge.

Mother : That’s good! A fridge is very useful.

It keeps food cool. What is different about this fridge?

Tarek : It works without electricity.

Mother : Really?

Tarek : Yes. One day, a university science student was visiting a village in South-West Africa. It was very hot, but people couldn’t have fridges, because there wasn’t any electricity in their village.

Mother : Oh dear! What a pity.

Tarek : Then the student had an idea. Her invention consists of two containers. One container is put inside the other one. The container on the outside is made of wood or plastic. A few holes are made in the outside container for air. The container on the inside is made of metal.

There aren’t any holes in this container, because the food inside it has to stay dry. Look, here’s a picture of it.

Mother : How interesting! It doesn’t look like a fridge! How does the food stay cool in these containers?

Tarek : Soil is added to the space between the two containers.

Then water is added to the soil. The soil becomes cool, so it makes the inside container cool as well. You put your food in the inside container and it stays cool.

Mother : I can’t believe it! It uses no electricity, so it’s helping people all around the world.

EYE ON EGYPT

SB page 49

The water from the Nile, the warm weather and the good soil make land near the Nile very good for farming. We grow a lot of wheat, maize, mangoes, oranges, lemons, grapes and spinach in Egypt. Rice, cotton and sugar are also very important crops.

Most modern Egyptian farmers grow several different crops every year. Most rice is grown in Kafr elSheikh and Dakahlia. The largest cotton crop is from Beheira and sugar cane is grown in Upper Egypt.

In the past, farmers used donkeys and other animals to help them farm the land using a plough. It took a long time for them to do this and later to plant the seeds. To irrigate the land, farmers used the shaduf. With this invention, they could irrigate fields when the river was not in flood.

However, this was very hard work.

Today, machines and modern ways to irrigate fields make farmers’ work faster and easier. However, farmers work very hard so that they have enough crops to sell.

Egyptian rice, cotton and sugar are sold to many other countries. The crops that are sold are important for Egypt’s economy.
