The capital city of a country is very often its greatest city, with the
largest population and the most important administrative buildings.
Capital cities house government offices, as well as embassies from
other countries. They are also financial centers, containing national
and international banks and other financial institutions.
Amman is no different from other capital cities in this respect it is
the seat of government and the economic and cultural center of
Jordan. Amman has the biggest population of any city in Jordan and
is home to about a third of the people 2.3 million people! Although
many of the buildings are very smart and futuristic, the city actually

has a history going back over 8,000 years. It was only established
as the capital in 1921, but has many ancient buildings.
Brasilia, the capital city of Brazil, is both similar to and different
from Amman. Like Amman, it is an administrative center and contains
the key political buildings and institutions.
However, unlike Amman, Brasilia is not the major cultural or economic
center of Brazil, and with 2.5 million people, it is home to only a tiny
fraction of the huge Brazilian population.
Built in the late 1950s, it is a new city and has only been the capital
of Brazil since 1960. It took over from Rio de Janeiro, which
remains a major economic and cultural center, as well as having a
population of many millions more. Brasilia is a very modern city and
because it is so new, planners were able to strictly regulate its
layout. It is divided into sectors, with specific zones for business,
industry, government and residential areas.

capital city of a country is essential (important)?
A: it has the largest population and the most important
administrative buildings

from other countries.

to be a very modern city? Mention only one reason.
Because it is so new, planners were able to strictly regulate its
layout.

every country of the world. Do you agree with this statement?

this because capital cities include house government offices, as
well as embassies from other countries.

Jordan has undergone a period of rapid modernization in the last
Few years, with high-tech and high-rise buildings being built in
Its major cities, especially Amman. Yet it remains an ancient land
That has enjoyed involvement and interaction with many different
Civilizations over the last ten thousand years.
Jordans historical importance means that there is a variety of
traditional crafts practiced by skilled local artisans and, despite
the fast pace of modernization, there are increasing efforts by the
state and by charities to preserve these wonderful traditions.
One example of this can be found in Madaba, where an organization
has been set up to help preserve the world-famous mosaics found
there. These ancient mosaics are made with thousands of tiny pieces
of coloured stone or tile. They give us information about the way
people lived at the time, tell us about old kings and illustrate ancient
maps and pictures of local events. They are very useful for
historians.
Today, local people are taught how to make these mosaics for
commercial sale. This helps to educate people about the need to
protect what is old, while also providing them with a living.
Probably the most ancient craft in Jordan is the creation of items
made from silsal (clay).

Madaba played a major role in trading pottery throughout Europe and
the Arab world and pottery was first made in the Levant over 8000
years ago. Historians have uncovered many examples of fine
Nabataean pottery in both Jordan and the surrounding countries.
Pottery is still produced in the same ancient attractive style by
craftsmen at Madaba today, although modern technology means the
methods have changed slightly. Nevertheless, local artists are still
producing beautiful works worthy of a high price.
1- According to the first paragraph, Jordan has undergone a
period of rapid modernization, do you agree with this
statement? Justify your answer.

High-tech and high-rise buildings being built in its major
cities, especially Amman.

Steve Fossett a record record-breaker in 2002, Steve Fossett
became the first person to travel solo round the world in a hot air
balloon. His balloon, The Spirit of Freedom, used a mixture of helium
and hot air and was 42 meters high and 18 meters wide.
To keep it at a constant altitude, the balloon used a sophisticated
autopilot system controlled by a computer.
Fossetts journey started in Western Australia. From here, he
crossed the Pacific Ocean, travelling in an easterly direction. On
reaching South America, he travelled across Chile and down round
Argentina. He flew over the Southern Atlantic Ocean towards South
Africa, then over the Indian Ocean to reach Australia.

minutes altogether, but conditions for Steve Fossett were not

comfortable. He only slept for four hours in every 24-hour period,
and never slept for more than 45 minutes at one time.

air temperatures were below freezing, in order to check that the
balloons burners were working properly. By the time he arrived in
Australia, he had travelled 33,195 km.
Steve Fossett was especially pleased with this successful round-the-
world journey as it was his sixth attempt. On the journey, Fossett

been six years earlier in 1996.

Text D:
========
When large numbers of people move from their homes in country
areas to find better paid jobs in towns and cities, the villages and
farms they once lived in are often left empty.
No one wants to buy homes there because they cannot make money
out of them. This phenomenon, which is called rural depopulation, can
lead to overcrowding in cities as well as for fewer people in country
areas.
One example of this phenomenon is the Garrigues area of Spain,
about one hours drive from Barcelona. The area has a Mediterranean
climate, but because it is high and not close to the sea, winter
temperatures are quite low. The area has an annual rainfall level of
482mm which falls in only 47 days of the year, during the autumn
and spring.
Historically, this was a successful agricultural area; on the higher
ground, the farmers grew almonds and vines, while in the river
valleys, wheat, corn, beans and sunflowers were the traditional
crops. The area was particularly well-known for its high quality
olive oil which was grown mainly for export.
The population of the area was at its highest about 150 years ago,
when a typical village might have 500 inhabitants, whereas now some
villages have as few as 100 permanent inhabitants. But as farming
became less and less profitable, and unemployment grew,
rd
level ( 0796939361-0777571734) 11

the population began to move to the cities to find work. This trend
started in 1860 and has continued to this day. Now some villages
consist mainly of elderly people. The area is suffering from the
effects of depopulation, such as poor public services and deserted
farms.
In some parts of Europe in recent years, however, the move from
the country to the city has been reversed as wealthy people move to
the countryside to escape from the overcrowding, pollution and stress
of city life. Some are moving permanently, but many are buying
holiday or weekend homes which are empty for much of the year.

1- According to the text, explain in two sentences(using your
own expression) how the public services affect the life of
people.
Because the public services such as transport, education and
health are very important for people in order not to escape
from their area.
2- According to the second paragraph, mention three things
that were grown by farmers in the area.
Wheat, corn, beans and sunflowers.
3- According to the third paragraph, why the total population in
the area decreased? State only one reasons.
- winter temperatures are quite low
4- According to the last paragraph, why the movement
(transfer) of some people from the country to the city has
been reversed? mention 2 reasons.
a. as wealthy people move to the countryside to escape from
the overcrowding
rd
level ( 0796939361-0777571734) 12

b. many are buying holiday or weekend homes which are
empty for much of the year.

5- The writer said the population began to move to the cities
to find work is he justified in this? Explain
Yes hes justified in this, because the area is suffering from
the effects of depopulation, such as poor public services and
deserted farms.
6- Find the words in the text which mean the same as empty
because people have left = deserted
something that happens or exists = phenomenon
7- What do the underlined words in the text
(they,they,them,) refer to?
They= (large numbers of) people
They= no one (people)
Them= homes

Critical Thinking:-
===============
Rural life isnt bad as some people imagine it, comment on this by
writing your point of view.
Thats true, and logic to say Rural life isnt bad as some people
imagine it because as wealthy people move to the countryside to
escape from the overcrowding, pollution and stress of city life.
