Think of other questions.
In Britain it is a bit colder than in Spain / Cat, and it rains (much) more. Besides that,
what is the basic difference between the weather in Britain and the weather in Cat /
Spain? (There, the weather often changes)
Un dia ‘guapo’, oi?
(Durant) els primers dies de la teva visita a (la Gran) Bretanya, descobriras que el temps
canvia sovint. A la Gran Bretanya no tens sovint (rarament tens) el mateix temps 2 dies
consecutius. De fet, a la Gran Bretanya rarament tens el mateix temps dues hores
consecutives! Primer fa sol, així que et deixes la jaqueta/abric a l’hotel… però llavors
comença a ploure. Tornes per la jaqueta/abric i de sobte fa sol un altre cop! De vegades
el temps canvia d’aquesta manera tot el dia. De fet, el temps probablement canvia tota la
nit també, però no el pots veure per la nit.
També descobriràs que als britànics els encanta parlar sobre el temps. Al Sahara, és
evident que no pots dir, ‘Quina calor fa avui, oi?’ perquè fa calor cada dia. A la Gran
Bretanya, tanmateix, pots dir, ‘Dulentíssim, oi? Probablement farà bo a la tarda’, or
‘Bon temps, oi? Probablement farà mal temps a la tarda’. De fet, a la Gran Bretanya
pots parlar del temps tot el dia, i tot el que dius… l’altra persona ja ho sap!
Ex. 2. competition? Britain, 5 times; weather, 7 times.
Ex 3. What is the idea of the first and last sentences?

Last: In Britain, people speak about the weather a lot.

CHRISTMAS
We began our holidays on the 23rd of December, Wednesday. I woke up very early in the
morning, and after turning around in bed for some time, I got up. It was 6 a.m. I made coffee
and I sat down and started wrapping Christmas presents for my family. I was wrapping presents
for more than an hour, sitting down. When I wanted to stand up, I was nailed. I couldn’t stand
up. I had a terrible pain in my lower back: lumbago. I went for a walk, hoping that the lumbago
would go away, but it didn’t. When I arrived back home, my wife rubbed my lower back with
some potion, and I felt a little better, but not much. After 3 or 4 days, with some massage, it
went away.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO PREDICT THE FUTURE? (Of course not)
I will begin working in the year 2020, when I am 24 years old. I will work as a farmer. Some
years later I will find a job as a specialist in trees. I will not make a lot a lot of money, but I will
make more than enough. I will have some boyfriends, and eventually I will fall in love with a
lorry driver. Love at first sight. We will get married a few months later. We will have 3
children, the first one a girl. My husband will spend days away from home. That will be fine,
because in this way we won’t have arguments. On Tuesdays and Thursdays I will do yoga. On
Mondays and Wednesdays I will play the drums in an punk band. At weekends, if my husband
is at home, we will go and watch the sunrise and the sunset.
Començaré a treballar l’any 2020, quan tingui 24 anys. Treballaré de pagesa. Uns anys més tard
trobaré feina de especialista en arbres. No guanyaré molts molts diners, però guanyaré més que
suficient. Tindré uns quants nòvios, i finalment m’enamoraré d’un camioner. Amor a primera
vista. Ens casarem uns mesos més tard. Tindren 3 fills, la primera una nena. El meu marit
passarà dies fora de casa. Això estarà bé, perquè així no discutirem. Els dimarts i dijous faré
ioga, i els dilluns I els dimecres tocaré la bateria en una banda punk. Els caps de setmana, quan
el meu marit sigui a casa, anirem a veure la sortida i la posta de sol. Y seremos felices y comeremos
perdices.

Dijous, 4 de febrer. A les 2 de la tarda marxava cap a casa i, malauradament, quan passava per
la porta del bosc al pavelló, he vist a Alvaro Palazón i a Julio Rojas asseguts a l’esglaó de la
porta del laboratori de Ciències Naturals. Alvaro s’estava fumant un pitillo. Julio em sembla que
també: no recordo si he vist el pitillo, però com a mínim ha fet el gest d’amagar alguna cosa.
Dilluns 1, a l’hora de guàrdia de 12:30 a 13:30, estava al passadís del 2n pis. Vaig demanar a
Julio Rojas que em donés un avió de paper que tenia a la mà. Era una cartolina amb un póster de
classe. Després que me’l va donar, vaig preguntar-li on tenia classe. La resposta va ser “A ti
qué coño te importa?”
M’agradaria que no em passessin aquests mini-incidents, però és ‘lo que hay’.
Atentament, Ignasi Cruellas

THE LION AND THE 2 ANTHROPOLOGISTS
“Troben a Kènia ossos humans de 400.000 milions d’anys”
Two anthropologists are in the middle of the savannah, studying some old bones. They are
gently brushing a bone when they hear the roar of a lion, in the distance. They stand up, look
and see the lion, far but walking towards them.
“Pass me the rifle with the narcotics”, says one of them.
“I don’t have it. YOU have it” “No, YOU have it”
They look around. The rifle with the narcotics is not there. Glups. They look at the lion. The
lion is getting closer, so they start running. And the lion starts running after them.
“I don’t know why we are running”, says one of them. “Everybody knows that it is impossible
to outrun a lion”.
“I’m not trying to outrun the lion”, says the other. “I’m trying to outrun you”.
What were they doing when they heard the roar of the lion? What did they do? Was the lion far or
near? What was the problem with the rifle? What did they do?
What did I say about… the savannah, old bones, to brush, the roar of a lion, the rifle.
(Estan estudiant / Estudien molt / Estan mirant-me / Veuen un lleó / Està caminant cap a (towards) ells /
Un d’ells diu ‘Passa’m el rifle’ / Comencen a córrer / El lleó comença a córrer darrera d’ells / No sé per
què estem corrent / Tothom ho sap /
Define… rifle, savannah, anthrop.. , bone, to brush (¿), the ROAR of a lion, to walk,…

Animals are beautiful people
The oldest and driest desert in the world; 50,000 sq miles of (eternally shifting) sand.
The beetles who live here have an air-cooled cooling system like a Volkswagen, so they have to
run like crazy to keep their cool. Even courting has to be done on the run: a quick kiss at full
gallop, and the romance is over.
And the gecko dives in as if the sand is water. She has a different cooling system. She doesn’t
have to dash around like those Volkswagen types. She can take life more slowly. She even has a
windshield wiper. She cleans her eyes with her tongue. And digging is done at leisure: first the
right hand, then the right foot at half speed, then the left hand, left foot….
The sidewinder’s favourite meal is the diving gecko. But geckos get hard-to-get. So the
sidewinder resorts to a sneaky trick to catch its prey: first, he buries himself in the sand until he
is quite invisible. Then his tail comes up and pretends to be a blade of grass. Now, geckos don’t
eat grass, but ants do. And geckos eat ants. At this point, things happen rather quickly: ant goes
for tail, gecko goes for ant,….
El desert més vell I més sec del món; 50,000 milles quadrades de… sorra.
Els escarbats que viuen aquí tenen un sistema de refrigeració per refredament d’aire com un
Volkswagen, de manera que han de córrer com a bojos per mantenir la frescor. Fins i tot festejar
s’ha de fer a la carrera: un petó ràpid a tota pastilla, i s’ha acabat el romanticisme.
I el gecko es submergeix com si la sorra fos aigua. Té un sistema de refrigeració diferent. No ha
d’anar llençat com els tipo Volkswagen. Pot prendre’s la vida més lentament. Fins i tot té un
‘limpiaparabrisas’. Es neteja els ulls amb la llengua. I cavar es fa amb tranquil.litat: primer la…
mà dreta, després el peu dret a mitja velocitat, llavors la mà esquerra, el peu esquerre…
L’àpat preferit de la serp sidewinder és el gecko. Però els geckos són difícils d’agafar. Així que
la serp recorre a un truc ‘serpentuós’ per agafar la presa: primer, s’enterra a la sorra fins que és
pràcticament invisible. Llavors treu la cua i fa veure que és una fulla d’herba. Els geckos no
mengen herba, però les formigues sí. I els geckos mengen formigues…

A rich woman lived in a big house. She had a lot of paintings by famous artists. She was
very old and had problems with her eyes. One day, she called the doctor. The doctor
went to her house, examined her and gave her some medicine for her eyes. Before he
left the house, he thought “She can’t see”, and he took one of the paintings. The next
week he returned with some more medicine. And he took another painting. And every
time he visited her he took a painting.

Nobody likes this animal because they bite. Now it’s not the worst bite in the world but
the problem with their bite is that it makes you itch after they bite you. Some people get a red
spot and they itch for days.
On the other hand, most people love this animal because they think it’s so cute. They love to eat
leaves and plants. They’re vegetarians and these small little animals are sometimes kept as pets.
This animal looks dangerous but in fact it’s pretty harmless and a lot of people keep
them as pets even. They’re pretty lazy animals, they like to sit around in the sun and they’re
reptiles. I think also they can swim; I’m not sure but I think they can swim, too.

Animals are beautiful people. 2
The female ostrich is a dull grey, but the male is a handsome devil. At mating time, the
handsome boys flash their plumage to impress the girls. And the less good-looking ones have to
fight for their lady loves. Finally, a loving couple will find a secluded spot to do their beautiful
mating dance. Pretty soon, they start a family. Actually, he’s a better parent than she is. And on
a hot afternoon, she will join the rest of the gang at the water hole, leaving him to keep an eye
on the nest. This is a full-time job, because each egg is a whole meal and there are many
freeloaders in the Namib…
Meanwhile, back at the nest young O chooses this moment to get born. There’s no one to
welcome him because Mother is out swimming and Father is out fighting Hottentots. O feels
very lonely, so he wobbles off to find company. He is now only 2 minutes old, but he already
knows about camouflage.
L’estruç femella és d’un gris apagat, però el mascle és un dimoni guapíssim. Al temps
d’aparellar-se, els nois guapos llueixen el seu plomatge per impressionar les noies. I els menys
guapos han de lluitar pels seus amors femenins. Finalment, una parella d’enamorats trobarà un
lloc apartat per fer el seu preciós ball d’aparellament. Molt aviat, posen en marxa una família.
En realitat, ell és millor pare que ella. I una tarda calorosa, ella s’ajuntarà amb la resta de la
banda a la bassa (forat d’aigua), deixant-lo a ell per fer un cop d’ull al niu. És una feina a temps
complet, perquè cada ou és un àpat sencer i hi ha molts ‘gorrons’ al Namib…
Mentrestant, al niu, el jove ‘O’ tria aquest moment per néixer. No hi ha ningú per donar-li la
benvinguda perquè la Mare és fora nedant i el Pare és fora lluitant amb els atacants. ‘O’ se sent
molt sol, així que surt trontollant per trobar companyia. Només té 2 minuts (d’edat), però ja sap
(coses) sobre camuflatge.
