SENATOR
WANTS TO JUMP-START* COLLEGE FOR
ALL
Sen. John Edwards today will
propose a government program to pay the first year's college tuition for a
student who also works 10 hours a week at a job or community service. Edwards
says offering a jump-start would encourage more people to go to college. Once
there, they would be better able to pursue financial aid and recognize the
value of a college education. In
addition, he'll put forward plans to offer four-year, full-tuition scholarships
to students who agree to teach in hard-pressed schools or work in homeland
security for five years after graduation. Edwards' speech at the University of
Maryland embraces an expanded federal role -and billions of dollars in new
spending- in raising pay and standards for teachers, reducing the size of high
schools and making college more affordable. Edwards also urges colleges to end
admissions practices that give a preference to **alumni's children and that
offers early decisions to students who apply early and agree to attend if
accepted. Both policies tend to be used most by upper-income students.
"Today, it's too hard for too many Americans to go up the ladder of
success," he says. "It is time for some reforms to get back to our
democratic roots."
*jump-start = ayuda inicial **alumni: antiguos alumnos
a)
Add True or False, quoting the relevant information from the text.
1. Edwards says offering a
jump-start would encourage people to go to college.

gone to a college have more chances to get a place there too.
b)
Read the text and, according to it, answer the questions. Use your own
words.
1. What is Senator John Edwards' plan?
2. Why is John Edwards' plan so expensive?
3. What kind of students will benefit from
John Edwards' program?

Survival!
Teenager Brian Robinson was travelling from the USA to Canada to see his father. He was the only passenger in a small plane, high above the Canadian mountains, when suddenly the pilot had a heart attack and died!
Brian was terrified. He was shaking, but he tried not to panic. Below him, he could see a lake. He turned the plane towards the lake and, incredibly, he landed on the water. Brian got out of the plane just before it sunk. He swam to the beach and the he fell asleep, exhausted.
When Brian woke up the next morning, he was cold and hungry. The quiet boy from New York only had the clothes he was wearing and a small hatchet ( a present from his mother). Then he remembered a TV programme about how to survive in the wild. He made a shelter with grass and some branches from the trees. He used his hatchet to cut wood and start a fire. He ate fruit form the forest. He made a spear to catch fish in the lake, and he made a bow and arrow to kill rabbits and birds.
One night there was a fierce storm and the plane came to the surface of the lake. Brian swam to the plane and found some food, a knife and a small radio. He tried to call for help on the radio, but he wasn't sure how it worked.
One day, a few weeks later, Brian was fishing by the lake when he heard a noise. He could see a plane above the trees. It was looking for him!Quickly, he made a fire, and the pilot saw the smoke. After fifty-four days in the Canadian woods, Brian's amazing adventure was finally over.
Above: Por encima de Shake: Temblar Below: Debajo de
Exhausted: Muy cansado Hatchet: Hacha pequeña Shelter: Refugio
Branch: Rama Wood: Madera Bow: Arco
Arrow: Flecha Forest: Bosque Spear: Lanza
Answer the following questions according to the text.
1) Where was Brian Going when his adventure began?
2) Where did he land?
3) Could Brian swim?
4) Where did he sleep?
5) Why did his plane reappear?
