STAY ALIVE

6 people, 16 days, no limits

Two teams of three people will face a sixteen-day jungle adventure in Steve Grant’s new survival show.

They’ll live without comforts, and they won’t have contact with the outside world. Which team will win the

£1m prize? At the end of the challenge, Steve will decide!

Meet the teams

Team 1: The Reds

Tom Woods is fit and learns fast. He’s a good swimmer.

Weak points: He always thinks he’s right. He isn’t practical.

If he works with the others, he’ll do OK.

Survival rating: *                                                            

Jenny Frome is brave – she once hunted crocodiles.

Weak points: She is reserved and likes to be alone.

If she doesn’t do anything stupid, she’ll do very well.
Survival rating: ****                                                        

Peter Quinn is competitive and likes a challenge.

Survival rating: *                                                           

Team 2: The Blues

Tina Brent is a leader, and she can make decisions.

Weak points: She has no experience in the wild. She’s a bit bossy and

doesn’t listen to others. She will need luck to get to the end.
Survival rating: **                                                            

Ted Wilson is clever, and he thinks before he acts.

Weak points: He doesn’t like snakes. He’s very shy.

He won’t go far if he doesn’t take any risks.
Survival rating: **                                                               

Sophie Jenkins sailed solo around Britain. She’s very friendly.

(Đọc bài báo. Tiêu đề tốt nhất là gì? Viết nó vào đúng chỗ.)

a. Father and son lost in the snow for days

b. Teenager survives alone on mountain

c. Boy phones emergency services from mountain

______________________

Are you a fan of survival programmes on TV? You know,the ones where experts tell us how to survive in really scary situations. If you watch one, perhaps you’ll learn how to survive alone in the wild just like seventeen-year-old Nicholas Joy fromthe American city of Medford. Read on to learn more!

One day in March, Nicholas was skiing in the mountains with his father, Adam, when he decided to take a different path back to their car. Adam waited for his son in the car park, but when he didn’t come back, Adam immediately phoned the emergency services.
Nicholas was lost and alone in a forest on the mountain. He had no mobile phone, the weather was very bad and it soon got dark. He remembered survival programmes from the TV and he decided to stay where he was that night.
He quickly built a shelter from snow and tree banches, he found some drinking water in a small river nearby. He then tried to light a fire by quickly moving two tree branches together. Nicholas spent two nights alone on the mountain in his shelter. But at 9:00 on the third morning, a man on a snowmobile found him. The teenager was hungry, tired and very cold, but he was unhurt.
Next time there's a survival programme on TV, perhaps you should watch it. Just think: you could learn something useful!

2. Read the blog about a survival camp. Who had a worse time than the others?

(Đọc blog về một chuyến cắm trại sinh tồn. Ai đã có thời gian tồi tệ hơn những người khác?)

Charlie 12.22 p.m.

We got back from the survival camp a few minutes ago. We spent 24 hours learning to survive in the wild. The best bit?

Building a shelter from trees (no,you can’t take a tent)!

Anna 13.42 p.m.

It was a difficult experience for me. If you aren't very fit, you should do some training before you go. The worst bịt was the food – we lit a fire and cooked a rat on it! The apples we found were nicer.

Grace 17.52 p.m.

Fantastic weekend! The most useful thing was leaning how to find safe drinking water. If you take too many things, your bag will be too heavy. Leave your phone at home, but take spare clothes.

Tom 19.22 p.m.

I was the laziest person in my family, but if I have a chance to go again, I definitely will. I loved every moment! You should wear comfortable boots, but don’t take a sleeping bag – the instructor will give you one.
