Lesson A introduces vocabulary for
greetings, and the verb be to introduce
people. Lesson B focuses on spelling

other people. Then, in Lesson D, they
will read and talk about family and draw
their family tree. In Lesson E, students
ask and answer questions for personal
information, and complete a personal
profile with their information. Finally, in
the Video Journal, students will watch
a video where writer and photographer

Gambia. He now works in Italy.
Consequently, what we do is invariably a
topic of conversation when we meet new
people, and with our family and friends.
In the past, people would often work
in the same job or type of job all their
working life, but nowadays jobs change
more quickly as technology affects how
they are done. This means that we need
to be more flexible and willing to develop
new skills during our working life. Despite
the different skills needed in different
fields, work is a universal experience that
students will share with people around
the world, so it is important that they be
able to ask and answer questions about
jobs and what they involve.
Unit Overview
In this unit, students will talk about jobs
and describe cities and countries.
Lesson A introduces vocabulary for
jobs, as well as the verb be with the
indefinite article a / an to say what
people’s jobs are. Lesson B focuses on
asking questions about jobs and saying
numbers. In Lesson C, students will use
be + adjective + noun to describe cities
and countries. Then, in Lesson D, they
will read and talk about jobs around the
world. In Lesson E, students interview
people to find out where they are from
and what they do. Finally, in the Video
Journal, students will watch a video
about Okotanpe—a contact juggler who
performs on the streets of Tokyo.

The houses and apartments we live in
3 Houses and Apartments
are an expression of our culture and our
identity. Thus, homes are different around
the world. The differences may be in the
type of home—a brick house, a wooden
cabin, a mobile home, or an apartment
building—or in the location of the home—
life in a small, rural town will not be the
same as life in an apartment downtown
in a crowded, capital city. Yet, at the
same time, homes all over the world have
similarities because of our shared human
experience. Usually, home is where
we sleep, eat, and share space with
our loved ones. Therefore, the concept
of home, whether it is a house, an
apartment, a yurt, or a boat, is something
students generally have in common.

We all have possessions—things that we
4 Possessions
have because we need them or because
they give us pleasure. Many of our
possessions are part of our daily life (for
example, a cell phone or sunglasses),
others are not (for example, a painting
or a pearl necklace). People around the
world consider different things important
for different reasons, but however young
or old, rich or poor we are, we all have
certain possessions that mean a lot to
us. These possessions may be special
because of their usefulness or because
they hold important meanings; maybe
they were given to us by someone
special or they remind us of a particular
event or moment in our life. Students
need to have the language to talk about
both kinds of possessions, the useful and
the personally significant.
Unit Overview
In this unit, students will learn to talk
about everyday and special possessions.
Lesson A introduces vocabulary for
everyday objects and the grammar
structure this / that / these / those to
ask about them. Lesson B focuses on
explaining why an object is special to
you. Lesson C introduces adjectives
to express opinions about the things
we have. Then, in Lesson D, students
will read and talk about similarities and This man is a barber in San Cristóbal

will talk about gift-giving and write
an email expressing thanks for a gift.
Finally, in the Video Journal, students
will watch a video about photographer

Reading Strategy:
Understanding Vocabulary from
Context
In order to be more competent
readers, students need to feel
comfortable guessing the meanings
of new words. One of the key
strategies that students can use
to help them guess is the context.
Students should look at the rest
of the sentence and identify the
subject(s) and verb(s) to help them
guess a word’s meaning. Students
can also read the preceding and
following sentences to gather further
clues about the word’s meaning.

Many of the activities in our daily routine are
5 Daily Activities
universal. Around the world, most people
get up, get dressed, have breakfast, and
start their day’s work—at home, in an office
or factory, outdoors, or at school. At the
end of the day, they eat dinner and relax,
alone or with family and friends. The times
people do these things, the type of clothes
they wear, how they travel to and from
work or school, and the food they eat may
differ, but the essential steps we go through
every day are similar the world over. Being
able to talk about their routines, as well
as reflect on changes they might need to
make in their daily routines, is useful for
students in their everyday conversations.
Discussing this theme is also important for
understanding similarities and differences
amongst people around the world.
Unit Overview
In this unit, students will learn to talk about
their daily routine, their commute, and
the activities they do once they’re at work
or school.
Lesson A introduces vocabulary and the
simple present to talk about everyday
routines and to tell the time. Lesson B
compares daily routines and the times of
day people do each activity. Lesson C
introduces questions and answers in
the simple present and the vocabulary
to talk about school and work activities.
Then, in Lesson D, students will read
and talk about the number of hours a A train goes by in Shinjuku,
Japan, home of the busiest
day people spend using screens. In
train station in the world.
Lesson E, students will write To-Do lists
and Do / Don’t lists, and give advice and
instructions. Finally, in the Video Journal, 58
students will see different times of the day
and the activities happening around the
world at those times.

Unit Theme
How we get around—our transportation—
6 Getting Around
is an increasingly important issue
around the world. Cities and towns
around the world are becoming more
and more congested with traffic, and the
world’s environment and climate are
suffering the consequences of so many
gasoline-fueled motor vehicles. More
efficient public transportation systems
are being developed in many of the
world’s cities so that people can get
around easily without needing their car.
These systems include bike routes and
bike share programs, as well as electric
trains and buses. Wherever we are, we
need to be able to get around, ask for
and give directions, and decide which
is the best form of transportation for the
journey we’re making.
Unit Overview
In this unit, students will learn to talk
about transportation and how they get
around, as well as to ask for and give
directions and travel advice.
Lesson A introduces the vocabulary for
places in a city and prepositions of place
to be able to ask for and give directions.
Lesson B focuses on describing places
in a city and creating a city tour. Lesson C
introduces have to to talk about obligation,
and the vocabulary to compare different
types of transportation. Then, in Lesson D,

Teaching Tip: Checking Answers
There are many ways to check students’ answers to exercises, all with advantages and
disadvantages.
•• Teacher reads the answers aloud, students check their work—the fastest way, but requires
the least amount of student involvement.
•• Teacher calls on students to give their answers—also fast, but may make some students
anxious.
•• Students correct each other’s work—gives students more responsibility, but they may miss
some of the mistakes.
•• Volunteers each write the answer to one question on the board—gives the class an opportunity
to work with common errors, but uses a lot of time.
•• Teacher corrects outside of class—an opportunity for detailed feedback, but takes time.
It’s a good idea to use a variety of different techniques for checking answers during your
classes.

of food we eat. Moreover, even within
any given culture, our food choices will
differ according to economics, scientific
information, and personal preferences.
Nowadays, there is increased research
and information about health and
nutrition, which has led to debate about
what the healthiest diet might be. In
some parts of the word, more and more
people are turning to vegetarian or vegan
diets. They do this not only as a health
choice, but also as an environmental
choice. Whatever the reasons for our
food choices, our diet is part of our
lifestyle. This unit looks at food from both
the health and pleasure angles, and
considers the issue of food waste.
Unit Overview
In this unit, students will learn to talk
about food and diets, and to explain how
to do something.
Lesson A introduces the vocabulary
for different types of foods and drinks,
and some and any to talk about food
and order a meal. Lesson B focuses
on expressions needed to plan a party.
Lesson C introduces the vocabulary for
describing diets, and how much / how

and non-count nouns. Then, in Lesson D, Kamayan means “by hand”
students will read and talk about the in the Philippines. It refers

9 A Family of Explorers
Emily Hughes is a student in California and every summer Emily goes to South Australia with her family.
Emily’s mother is Doctor Mary Droser. Doctor Droser is an explorer and scientist. She teaches at the
University of California in the United States, but every June and July she studies fossils in South Australia.
And in South Australia there are lots of fossils—some are 550 million years old!
Mary has one daughter—Emily—and one son. His name is Ian. This summer, Ian is also with the family
in Australia. The two children help their mother, and they study the fossils.
And there’s one more member of the family here—Dorothy Droser is Emily’s grandmother. She lives
in New York, but she’s in Australia for the summer. She says, “I do the cooking—breakfast, lunch, and
dinner.”

18 Women at Work
Alison Wright is a photographer. She’s from New York, but she works all over the world. She takes
photographs for National Geographic and for humanitarian aid organizations on different continents—Africa,
Asia, South America, and in regions like the Middle East. Lots of her photographs are of women and children.
The photo on this page is from a group of photos by Alison. They show “Women at Work.” They are photos
of women—they cook food or have small businesses at home, and work other jobs like farming, making
clothes in factories, or work at hospitals.
The photo shows 26-year-old Abau Flora and her daughter. They are from Juba, in South Sudan. Abau has
a business—she makes clothes in her home with a sewing machine. Her sewing machine is from an aid
organization. With her business, she makes money and helps support her family.
The women in the photos Alison takes do many jobs. They all have one thing in common, though: they
work hard to create a better future.

A: But it isn’t a car, now. Look at its hands and feet!
B: [laughs] No, it isn’t. Let me explain. Hetain likes Transformers. Transformers are robots—they’re in
movies. So, this is his car as a Transformer. There’s a video of him and his father online with the car. It’s
very popular—there are 32 million views!

30 My Room
John Thackwray is a filmmaker and photographer from South Africa. He has a book called My Room. It has
photographs of 100 people from 55 countries. John photographs young men and women in their rooms
with their possessions. Here are two of the people in his book.
Andrea is from Bucharest, Romania. Her bed is in the middle of her room, and there are possessions
all around her. She has lots of books on the bookcase and next to the bed. She also has a desk with a
computer. She’s a student. The scooter is her transportation to college. Sometimes, it’s hot in Bucharest, so
she has a fan.
Marcello is from La Paz, Bolivia. He’s a musician. There’s a guitar in his room and panpipes—these are a
traditional Andean musical instrument. His room is very comfortable. It has pillows and a bed, and a TV in
the corner. There are lots of colorful blankets and pillows—it’s usually cold at night in La Paz!
John’s photos show how people’s lives are similar and different in other countries. Is your favorite room
similar to, or different from, Andrea’s and Marcello’s rooms? Do you have the same possessions?

31 Abel: What time do you get up?
Marco: I get up at seven thirty on weekdays.
Abel: And on the weekend?
Marco: At about ten o’clock.
Abel: And what time do you go to bed?
Marco: On weekdays, I go to bed at about nine-thirty, but on weekends, I go to bed late at night!
32 A: Every day thousands of people commute to work by car, train, and bus. The average commute in the US
is about a half hour a day, but for people in many big cities, it’s even longer. For some people, it’s over an
hour-and-a-half. Each way! These people are the super commuters.
Take Andy Ross, for example. He’s a super commuter. Every day, he leaves home at 6 o’clock in the
morning. On the train, he starts work on his laptop. Then, he gets to work at 10 o’clock. He leaves his
office at 4 o’clock in the afternoon and gets home at about 8 o’clock. In total, Andy travels 240 miles to and
from work, and he spends 8 hours commuting every day.

35 Screen Time
We spend more and more of our daily lives with screens: TVs, laptops, smartphones, tablets, video games,
smartwatches. Of course, screens are important in our lives. We check the time on them in the morning, we
send emails with them at work, and we watch TV or play games with them at night. But are we too connected?
This chart from Adam Alter, a professor at New York University, shows how we spend our time, and how
much time we spend on screens. It shows three different years: 2007, 2015, and 2017. Some activities
don’t change. Every year, humans sleep for about eight hours per day. We work and commute for about
eight or nine hours a day. Then, for three hours a day, we do “survival” activities: we eat, we take a shower,
we take care of children.
Finally, the chart shows four to five hours for “personal” time, or free time. In this time, we go to the gym,
we play games, we have hobbies, we meet friends. It’s very important time! But over time, we spend more
and more of this personal time on screens. In the chart, red shows our personal time with screens. In
2007, 50% of our personal time is with screens. In 2015, it’s about 70%. In 2017, it’s about 90%!
Overall, Adam Alter thinks this change is bad. He thinks we need more personal time without screens, and
more personal time for sports, hobbies, and friends. But do people want to change the amount of time they
look at screens?

Are you bored with playing the same sports all the time? Try hybrid sports! Hybrid sports are games with
rules from two or more different sports and activities.
Football Tennis
This sport is popular in the countries of the Czech Republic and Slovakia, where it started in the 1920s.
You need two teams of two players and a net. One team kicks the ball over the net and the other team kicks
or heads it back—you can’t use your hands.
Chess Boxing
There are chess boxing competitions and clubs in China, India, Iran, Italy, Russia, Germany, Mexico,
Turkey, and the United States. Chess boxers have to be strong and intelligent. There are 11 rounds of
3 minutes. You have to play chess for 6 of the rounds and box for 5.

58 Food Waste
It’s the middle of the day in New York City and 5,000 people are eating lunch in Union Square. This is not a
normal lunch, though. National Geographic Explorer Tristram Stuart, and his organization Feedback, make
these lunches from food that people throw away. He makes these lunches because he wants people in
different cities to know about the problem of food waste.

66 A Life-Saving Delivery
Rwanda is a small country in central East Africa. A lot of its people live in rural areas, and often there
aren’t good roads to the villages. Because transportation is a problem, doctors in Rwanda often cannot get
medicine for their patients. But now they have a high-tech solution.
Zipline is a drone service that delivers medicine. Zipline doesn’t use cars and trucks. Its drones can quickly
deliver medicine over mountains and forests and across rivers. The process is simple. First of all, when
a hospital in Rwanda needs medicine, the doctor sends a text message to Zipline. Next, Zipline puts the
medicine into a small red box with a parachute. Then, the drone flies to the hospital and, finally, it drops
the box to the ground.
Zipline’s drones are a good example of how technology can be positive and important in our lives. The
drones can make 500 deliveries per day, and the average flying time is 30 minutes (by truck it’s about 5
hours). The drone can fly almost 50 miles in a trip. As a result, Zipline is also now delivering in Ghana
and, in the future, it plans to deliver in other countries, including rural parts of the United States.

Taiye Selasi: My name is Taiye Selasi. Now, when I was born, my parents named me Eyi Taiye Selasi Tuakli
Wosornu. Eyi means first twin in my father’s language, Ewe from Ghana. Taiye means first twin in my mother’s
language, Yoruba from Nigeria. Selasi, my middle name, is an Ewe name. Tuakli is my mother’s surname, or last
name. Wosornu is my father’s surname. In West Africa, it is common for children to have many names. One of my
cousins has ten names. In Portugal, where I live, it is also common for people to have four or five names.
I was born in London as Eyi Taiye Selasi Tuakli Wosornu. But my parents separate when I am one. When I am three
years old, my mother marries a man named Doctor Williams. And so, for a time, my name is Eyi Williams. Years later,
my mother and my stepfather Doctor Williams separate and my name changes again. Eyi Wosornu.
But I always loved my names in my mother’s language. Taiye and Tuakli. My mother’s name is Juliet Tuakli. My
father’s name is Lade Wosornu. My sister’s name is Yetsa Tuakli-Wosornu.
My sister and I have the same surname—Tuakli Wosornu. Our mother’s surname, Tuakli, and our father’s surname,
Wosornu, together. It is lovely, but it is very long.
Now I am a writer and I have a new name, a shorter one. My first name, Taiye, and my middle name, Selasi. That is
how I became Taiye Selasi. My name is Taiye Selasi.

A Contact Job
Narrator: This is the city of Tokyo, Japan. There are more than 13 million people here. It’s a big city, and people are
very busy. But they always stop in the street for this man! His name is Okotanpe and he’s a contact juggler.
In contact juggling, the ball is always on your body. You move it in your hands, along your arms, back to your hands,
and around your body. It’s amazing!
Is the ball soft? No, it isn’t. It’s hard plastic.
It’s fascinating to me. It’s part magic act, part mime, and part standard juggling. Is it easy? No, it isn’t! It’s very difficult
and Okotanpe works many hours every day.
Okotanpe works all over Tokyo. It’s interesting for the people on the street, and Okotanpe is very popular.
How many balls are there? One? Two? Three? Four?
When you are in Tokyo, look out for Okotanpe!

the bags.
He has a lot of things, like a sleeping bag and a small tent.
Sometimes he’s in a hotel, but sometimes there aren’t hotels on the trip.
Some clothes, like socks and pants, and bike shirts and shorts, and a raincoat—for when it rains!
…a camping stove for cooking food. He doesn’t have much food with him because there are stores on the road. He
can buy food and cook it.
…a good camera—Tyler’s a photographer. And, finally, maps for all the places he’ll go! Now, let’s watch him pack!

Unit 8
A Dress with a Story
Narrator: Sardinia is an island in the Mediterranean Sea. It is part of the country of Italy. It’s a beautiful place and the
coastal towns are busy with people and tourists. But in the middle of the island, it’s very quiet. There are mountains
with small villages. Desulo is one of these villages.
Desulo is a very traditional place and sometimes you can see the older women in a special dress. In the past, all of
the women only had one dress. They got it when they were a teenager and over the years, they changed the dress and
added new colors. Only a few women still wear these dresses today.
Every piece of the dress, and all of the different colors, are about the women’s lives. When they get married, the dress
is red and beautiful. And some of these women, when they are a widow, make the dress black.
This woman has photos of her parents. In the photos, her mother and other women are also wearing the same type of
dress. When she looks at their dresses, she says she can see the story of their lives. And so, she knows that after she
dies, people can look at her dress and remember the story of her life.
Unit 9
Berry Road Trip
Narrator: Where does your food come from? The other side of town? The other side of the country? From another
country?
In the United States, there are more than 2.6 million trucks on the road every day. And we transport 70% of our food
on trucks. Food can travel an average 5,120 miles before it’s in a supermarket.
Let’s take a trip on a truck transporting strawberries. We begin at some strawberry fields in Watsonville, California.
There are 590 trucks—all with strawberries. There is one pound of strawberries per box. 8 boxes per case. 108 cases
per pallet. And 26 pallets per truck. The berries on one truck are worth $90,000!
The truck drives across the US. It has to stop for fuel—that costs $900 each stop. It’s 3,200 miles to Washington,
DC. The trip takes three days with two drivers. Each driver can drive and then sleep. Each person can drive 11 hours a
day. This happens every day.
So, the next time you go to your local store and buy strawberries, think about the distance they traveled to be there!
Unit 11
Catching a Hummingbird
Narrator: How did photographer Anand Varma capture this incredible footage?
Anand is a science photographer, and he loves taking photographs of animals. But this is very difficult, so he needs
to plan very carefully.
For this project, Anand would like to film a hummingbird. Hummingbirds are very small and fast, so he uses special
equipment. First, he’s going to prepare his studio. And he’s going to use a special camera. Fortunately for Anand,
modern cameras are much better than in the past.
Caption: This hummingbird was filmed in 1941 on a 16MM camera.
Narrator: This film of a hummingbird is from 1941.
Caption: DSLR Camera filmed in 2015
Narrator: This is with a more modern camera.
Caption: 4K Camera, 2,000 frames per second
Narrator: And this is with Anand’s camera.
Caption: But getting the shot wasn’t easy.
Caption: This shot of the forked tongue required special miniature glass dishes to be hand-made.
Narrator: To photograph the long tongue of the hummingbird, Anand needs to use small glass dishes.
Caption: A fog machine was custom built to visualize the bird’s aerodynamics.
Narrator: To photograph how hummingbirds move, Anand needs a special fog machine.
And to photograph how hummingbirds fly in the rain, he’s going to use this plastic box. The hummingbird is inside
the box and water falls on it. When Anand watches the hummingbird in slow motion, he can see what the bird does.
Now, we can see, too.
