1. Antarctica is the coldest place on Earth. It is almost completely covered with snow and Ice. In some places the ice almost 5 kilometres thick. There are on trees or bushes Very small plants are the only things that hrow there.
2. This beautiful white land is nearly as big as Europe and the USA put together. In winter is seems to double in size because ice forms in the sea around it. When the sea is frosen it is very difficult for ships to reach Antarctica. The scientists who work there know cannot leave until summer comes.
3. In summer the days are very long and the nights are very short. In winter it is dark of the time. At the South Pole there is only one ‘day’ and one ‘night’ in the whole year The sun does not go down from September to March, and then it is dark until the next September.
4. Only tiny animals like insects live in Antarctica. However the sea around it is full of Animals like seals and penguins come noto the land in the warmer months to rest and have their babies. When it starts to get cold again, most of them leave, but the emperor penguin stays. In the winter the mother lays one egg on the ice. She then passes it to the father who carries it on his feet, under a piece of skin. Here he keeps it warm in temperatures as low as –60 C องศา ตรงนี้เป็น

1. Brussels in Belgium is city of around 1.5 million people. Like all cities, it is usually full of cars. But for one day in September each year, Brussels is quiet. There are no cars on the roads. This is Car-Free Day. Nobody is allowed to drive into the city centre. People have to walk or ride bicycles, or catch a bus or train.
2. On Car-Free Day in 2010 a big crowd of people walked through the streets of Brussels. ‘I think it’s a great idea,’ said one man. ‘Usually I drive everywhere. But today I have time to look around at my beautiful city.’
3. The first car-free day was in France in 1998. The French government wanted to show people what it would be like without so many cars. It was a very popular idea, and the next year other countries had car-free days too. In 2010, cities in thirty-nine European countries had car-free days. Cars were not allowed in Rome, Athens, Paris and many other cities.
4. ‘Cars cause serious problems,’ says Margot Lerner, who works for the Belgian government. ‘They cause a lot of unhealthy air pollution, And they are dangerous. Each year many people are killed by cars. So we need to use them less. And we need people to use trains and buses more. Car-free days make people think about these things.’
5. But some people aren’t so happy. ‘One day without cars is not enough,’ says Sophie Doyen, a student. ‘I’d like to see a car-free year!’
