The first Ancient Olympic Games are believed to have

taken place in Ancient Greece in 776 BC at Olympia,
from where they take their name. The games were
celebrated for over five hundred years until the advance
of Christianity reached Greece in AD 393.
The Olympic Games we know today were first
celebrated in Athens, Greece, in April 1896 in the
Panathenaic Stadium which was built on the ruins
of the ancient stadium in the capital. In the modern
games, hundreds of countries and thousands of athletes
compete in nearly four hundred different events.
The first Winter Olympic Games were held in 1924 in
Chamonix, France, and the first Paralympic Games were
held in Rome, Italy, in 1960. The sports that form part
of the Olympic Games have varied considerably over
the years. The only constant is that any activity which
involves motorised equipment, e.g. motorcycling, waterskiing, etc. cannot be considered an Olympic sport.

Language note
The spelling rules relating to the formation of the Present
simple are as follows:
Verb + s: Most verbs simply add an -s to make the third
person form.
Verb + es: Some verbs take -es at the end, generally
verbs which end in -s, -sh, -ch and -x, but also the verbs
do and go.
Verb + ies: Verbs which end in a consonant followed by
-y form the third person by changing -y to -i and adding
-es (e.g. study studies, try tries, copy copies).

Exercise 4
Individually, students write questions using the prompts.
Check as a class, drilling the questions for pronunciation
and sentence stress.
In pairs, students ask and answer the questions.
Monitor but do not interrupt fluency unless students
make mistakes with the question or third person forms.
Third person singular verbs are pronounced with /s/

at the end when the infinitive ends with an unvoiced
consonant sound and with /z/ at the end when the
infinitive ends with a voiced consonant sound.
Only when the infinitive ends with the sounds //, /t/,
// or /d/, do we add the complete syllable /z/.
Note that the pronunciation of do/does is also irregular in
that the vowel sound changes from the infinitive /du/ to
the third person /dz/.

Play the recording. Students listen and repeat.
Draw students attention to the pronunciation of the
verb endings.
Extra activity
Brainstorm ten other regular verbs students already
know and write them on the board. Be prepared to feed
in additional verbs if students cant think of ten. Ask
students to classify these verbs according to the
pronunciation of the third person -s.
If students have problems identifying the group, tell them
to put their hand on the front of their neck as they say
the infinitive. Point out the physical difference between
the verbs which end in an unvoiced sound (e.g. like) and
those which end in a voiced sound (e.g. love). Those with
a voiced sound will cause them to feel vibrations in their
neck whereas the unvoiced ones will not.

Students then work in pairs, acting out the conversation.
Language note
In some languages verbs of preference are followed by
the infinitive form and this can cause L1 interference for
some learners. Although in British English the use of the
infinitive is in fact possible after these verbs in certain
circumstances, it is a complicated area usually taught
only at higher levels. Throughout Next Move the form
taught after verbs of preference is -ing.

Superstitious sports stars
Reading
any sports stars are superstitious.They believe in good and

bad luck. Some have a lucky charm (something they have
with them for good luck) or wear lucky clothes. Others believe
special numbers are lucky and some do special rituals (things
they do for good luck) on the day of an important game.
Serena Williams, the tennis player, ties her shoelaces in the same
way before every match. She often wears the same socks at
all the matches in a competition. She also has lucky shoes and
likes having an extra dress with her. Another tennis star, Rafael
Nadal, places two water bottles in exactly the same position
next to the tennis court before every match.When he wins a
competition, he always bites the trophy!
The Spanish footballer, Fernando Torres, loves the
number three. He always has three shirts, three pairs
of shorts and three pairs of boots in his sports bag.
Kolo Tour is always the last player onto the
football pitch before a game. Its his ritual. Many
football players believe numbers like
11, 22 or 33 on a players shirt are
good luck and they think it is bad luck
to change their number when they go
to another team.
Formula One racing driver, Sebastian
Vettel, doesnt have a special ritual
but he has lucky charms. He has a
necklace and a little metal pig!

Revise the vocabulary of sports from this unit by creating

a mind map:
Start by writing the word Sports in a cloud in the centre
of the board and copying the three spokes onto the
board. Elicit the three verbs commonly used with sports
from the class (do, go and play) and write one in the
circle at the end of each spoke.
Elicit an example of a sport with play, e.g. basketball,
and write it in a box connected to the verb play. Elicit
other words connected with basketball, e.g. ball, court,
player and write these on the board, connecting them to
the box. Draw a simple illustration for each of the words.
Continue the process, eliciting a sport with do and
a sport with go and add these to the board along with
appropriate vocabulary. Students then work in small
groups, brainstorming vocabulary and adding it to their
diagrams. Give them a time limit of five minutes. Monitor
and help with vocabulary and feed in ideas where
necessary.
Collate vocabulary on the board. Students can
peer-teach the vocabulary they have thought of. Drill the
vocabulary for pronunciation and word stress.
Draw up the four speech bubbles. Make sure students
understand that the ones on the left ask for opinions
and the ones on the right give opinions. Elicit example
questions to make sure students understand that the
questions can be used to ask about either sports,
e.g. What do you think of basketball? or sports stars,
e.g. What do you think of Kolo Tour?
Students then work in pairs, making conversations and
expressing their opinions about sports and sports stars.
Monitor but do not interrupt fluency. Make a note of
any mistakes related to the content of this unit to go
over with the class afterwards but make sure that these
mistakes remain anonymous during the correction stage.

Exercise 4
Humans started using simple natural materials, such

as pigs bladders, to make balls many centuries ago,
but modern football design is now at the cutting edge
of science. Since Charles Goodyear made the first
all-rubber football in 1855, ball design has evolved
continuously. The only thing which has remained
consistent is the size of the ball used in professional
matches, which was established in 1873. For over 75
years footballs were dark brown until, in 1951, with the
introduction of electric floodlighting, white balls were
introduced to make it easier for spectators to follow the
ball during the game.
Footballs made from 32 pieces of material, as described
in the text, first appeared in the 1950s. They remain very
common, although they were replaced in the 2006 FIFA
World Cup by a design made of only 14 pieces and in
2010 by a controversial design with only eight pieces.
In each case, it is the pressure within the ball which
transforms it from a complex geometrical form into a
perfect sphere. The newest footballs contain chips and
transmitters which can send data about the balls exact
position on the pitch to antennae around the stadium
and send this information back to a receiver carried by
the referee.

The London Dungeon opened in 1974 and has proved

a highly successful tourist attraction over nearly forty
years. It is not in fact a dungeon, but in reality is more
like a theme park with actors taking on roles and guiding
visitors through some of historys more macabre and
grisly events. It is chiefly aimed at, and popular with,
young people, who enjoy the reconstructions of the
Great Plague, the Great Fire of London, medical surgery,
torture and the world of Jack the Ripper among others.
Further information is available on the internet.

The Fire of London
Come and see London at the time of the

Great Plague and the Great Fire! Learn about
other horrible events in English history!
After the Great Plague, there was a very big

re in London. On 2nd September 1666, a
re started at the bakery of Thomas Farriner
in Pudding Lane. Farriner and his family
escaped but their servant died in the re.
The re started in this poor part of the city
and then burned the old City of London,
including 13,500 houses, 87 churches and
St Pauls Cathedral. The re was terrible but
there were not many victims and only six
people died. Is this really true or did more
people die? Its a mystery!
SA
What can you do at The London Dungeon?
The Great Plague
In the fourteenth century a terrible plague

killed many thousands of people in England.
The plague came and went many times in
the next three hundred years. Then, in 1665,
rats from ships carried the disease to London
again. King Charles II and many rich people
went to the country to escape the plague, but
poor people didnt leave the city. They stayed
and about 80,000 people died.
Other things to do
Go for a boat ride in the dark, see the ghosts
in the Labyrinth of the Lost Souls, or meet
horrible people from history!

Say Cheese! expression traditionally used in
English when taking a photo. Used because when
saying the word cheese the mouth is in the
approximate position of a smile. This idea has also
been adopted in many other languages with different

and omelette in Swedish.
Dont be silly. colloquial phrase used to reject an

William Shakespeare (1564-1616)
Reading

1 Who is this man?
2 Why is he famous?
3 What do you know about him?
illiam Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon,

England, in 1564. He probably went to school but he
didnt go to university.When he was eighteen William married
Anne Hathaway.They had a son called Hamnet and two daughters,
Susanna and Judith. Hamnet died of the plague when he was eleven.
In 1585, Shakespeare left his family in Stratford and went to
London. There he started a career as an actor, a writer and the
owner of a theatre with some other actors. He retired in 1613
and died three years later.
William Shakespeare wrote about thirty-eight plays: comedies
(e.g. A Midsummer Nights Dream), tragedies (e.g. Romeo and
Juliet) and historical plays (e.g. Richard III).
Some people think that Shakespeare didnt write his plays.
They believe that another, mystery person wrote them. Why?
Because in the sixteenth century, writers were often rich and
went to university. They usually travelled and spoke different
languages. Shakespeare didnt come from a rich family or study at
university and he stayed in England all his life. Most people believe
Shakespeare was the author of the plays, but there are questions
about his life: Why did he marry Anne Hathaway? Why did he
move to London? Why did he retire? How did he die?
Shakespeares plays are famous all over the world but his life
has many mysteries.

Sofonisba Anguissola (Italy, 15321625) is famous for

her informal style of portraits. Her painting of her pupil,
Elizabeth of Valois, was so fine that it was copied by
many other artists, including Rubens. Anguissola was
married twice, the second time to a wealthy husband,
much younger than herself, who she proposed to shortly
after the death of her first husband. Their marriage
lasted over thirty years until she died at the age of
93. In the last years of her life, her eyesight became
progressively poorer but she continued to act as a
patron of other artists with the money she had earned
from King Philip II and with her husbands fortune.
Thanks to Anguissolas work, many more women began
to take up careers in art.

Write the facts about the two women on the board.
Draw the pictures but do not include the names.
Tell students you are thinking of two famous women
from history. Students take it in turns to make guesses
about who you are thinking about. Allow students one
guess each. If they guess correctly, write the names
Amelia Earhart and Cleopatra on the board within the
plane and the pyramid respectively.
Explain that students are going to talk about the
biographies of these famous women. Draw the question
mark at the top of the board and elicit some possible
questions. Write these up as prompts within speech
bubbles down the centre of the board.
Divide the class into pairs. Write up the information
about Amelia Earhart in the box on the left of the board
and nominate one student in each pair to be an expert
on her life. Make sure the students understand that they
should ask and answer questions in the third person.
Students then work in pairs, asking questions and
giving their expert viewpoint on the life of Amelia
Earhart. Monitor but do not interrupt students fluency.
They then change roles and repeat the activity with the
information about Cleopatra.

Ancient Egypt existed for over three millennia until

Egyptian civilisation finally fell to the Roman Empire in
30 BC. Most famous today for its vast monuments and
temples and its antiquities, which are to be found in
museums around the world. The Egyptians made major
contributions to the development of mankind including
construction techniques, boats, glass and art and
architecture which still inspire and fascinate us today.
The Roman Empire began after the fall of the Roman
Republic which had lasted for five hundred years. The
murder of Julius Caesar is commonly seen as marking
the beginning of the transition from Republic to Empire.
The Romans, like the Egyptians, were also vitally
important in the development of the Western world,
adapting Ancient Greek models and giving much of
Western Europe the basis for its languages, arts, political
systems and religions.
The Aztecs remain one of the most fascinating cultures
of Central America. The height of the civilisation spanned
nearly two centuries until the Spanish colonisation when
they founded what is now Mexico City on the ruins of
Tenochtitlan. Their legacy lives on in the Nahuatl
language (which gave the world the words chocolate and
tomato), Mexican cuisine and numerous artistic and
architectural treasures.

The Nile River ran through Ancient Egypt. Two
separate kingdoms developed along the Nile River

Lower Egypt. In 3200 BC the pharaoh of the north
conquered the south and Egypt became one country.
The pharaohs name was King Narmer or Menes.

2 The Roman Empire began in Italy in 27 BC. It
was small at first, but it became very big. In the

England were all part of it. The Romans play an
important part in our lives today. Many of the
things we do or have are from the Romans.
The Romans spoke and wrote in Latin and many of
our words come from Latin words. Our calendar, for

In pairs, students then write down how they think the
words might be spelt. They check their answers by
opening their books and looking at the vocabulary box.
Stronger groups or individual students choose a famous

person and write a text describing them. They should
use this person instead of a name to keep the identity a
secret, e.g. This person has got long, fair hair and is very
tall and slim. When checking students work, focus on
the positive use of the grammar and vocabulary taught
so far and respond to the students texts by saying who
you think the famous person is.
After correcting the texts you could display them on
the classroom walls for students to identify the famous
people.

Exercise 5
Make sure students remember the basic spelling rules

relating to comparatives and superlatives.
In most cases we simply add -er to a short adjective to
form the comparative and -est to form the superlative.
However there are three exceptions to this rule:
Adjective ends consonant + vowel + consonant:
double the consonant, e.g. slim which becomes slimmer
or slimmest.
Adjective ends with -e: add only -r or -st, e.g. nice
which becomes nicer or nicest.
Adjective ends with -y: remove the -y and add -ier or
-iest, e.g. curly which becomes curlier or curliest.
Note that long adjectives is used to refer to adjectives
of two or more syllables. There are, however, a few
exceptions when an adjective has a very weak second
syllable. The most common of these are quiet quieter
(not more quiet) and clever cleverer (not more clever).
The doubling of a final consonant as in slim slimmer
slimmest is a relatively common feature of English when
the base form ends in consonant + vowel + consonant.
This also happens with both the formation of the Present
participle (stop stopping) and the Past simple (stop
stopped ). The only exception to this rule is words ending
in -w or -y where the consonant is not doubled, e.g slow
slower slowest (not slowwer or slowwest) and play
playing played (not playying or playyed ). In American
English further exceptions are also made to this rule, e.g.
travel traveled (AmE) / travelled (BrE).

Revision
Language note
First Prepare a live listening comparing yourself and a

famous person. Dont identify the person by name. With
stronger groups you can include some of the personality
adjectives from this section. Use the following text as an
example (Male): This person is very handsome, he is much
more handsome than me! His hair is longer than mine and
fairer. Its straight and fair and mine is curly and dark. Hes
older than me but he looks like a young man , etc.
(Answer: Leonardo diCaprio)
Second Students listen and answer the following questions:
What adjectives does your teacher use?
Who do you think the famous person is?
What other sentences can you make comparing your teacher
and the famous person?
This Pronunciation section highlights the use of rising

intonation at the end of yes/no question forms and falling
intonation at the end of short answers. Students often
have problems with intonation in English due to the
unintentional transfer of the intonation patterns of their
own language to English and this can sometimes impede
clear communication. It is important therefore throughout
the course to drill not only discrete items of vocabulary
and grammar but also phrases and conversations so
that students start to assimilate the intonation patterns of
connected speech.

students pronunciation.

In this unit students have seen a variety of appearance

adjectives but have not actively looked at adjectival order
when using more than one adjective before a noun.
There are rules which native speakers follow regarding
the order of adjectives in such cases, consequently
long, curly, fair hair sounds correct but fair, curly, long
hair does not. As students have not studied these rules,
when correcting their written work, do not penalise them
should they use the adjectives in a different order.

Ask students if the word order rules are the same or

Revise all the vocabulary by playing a blind words

Alternatively, pin or stick it to students backs. Explain
that students have to stand up and ask their classmates
for clues or definitions (in English) to find out what the
word is. Students move around the class, defining words
to help their classmates and identifying their own words.
When the students think they know their words, they

DNA or deoxyribonucleic (pronounced /di ks i rab

nju kli k/) acid is essential for all forms of life and
contains, amongst other things, our genetic code. DNA
in fact contains a lot of additional information but it is the
genes themselves which dictate, for example, the colour
of our eyes, hair and skin. This genetic code is combined
and passed from parents to children and that is why
children tend to look like their parents or grandparents.
Under the microscope DNA forms a ribbon which is a
double helix and looks rather like a spiral ladder with
rungs connecting the two strands.
Chromosomes are contained within the nucleus of
almost every cell in our body. Each chromosome
contains an extended sequence of DNA with all
its genetic information held together with proteins.
Chromosomes are X-shaped and are always found in
pairs, one from the mother and one from the father.
There are a total of 46 chromosomes in a human, 23
from each parent.
Investigation into genetics is considered to be very
important to the future of mankind although mapping our
DNA in detail is a huge task which will take many more
years to complete.

Sometimes babies are born with blue eyes and their

eyes change colour when they become older. They
change because a special protein changes one
