     Tornadoes, sometimes called “twisters”, are whirlwinds with speeds of up to 400 km per hour. In the USA, there are 1,000 tornadoes every day. They look fantastic and dramatic when we are watching them on TV, but they can kill. Tornadoes are only one sign of the world’s climate changes. There are many others. The number of thunderstorms is increasing and there are more hurricanes. There are more floods in some parts of the world, and there’s much less rain in others.

     We know that these things happen because global temperatures are rising and many people believe the weather will get worse in the future. The problem of climate change won’t go away unless we do something about the causes. Cutting down trees, burning too much oil, and the increase in the numbers of cars and planes are some of the things that cause the problems. Scientists believe that if the temperatures continue to rise, the ice at the poles will melt and the sea levels will rise. Some islands might disappear completely. All this means that unless we do something to stop global warming now, there may be many other dramatic changes in the future.

Task 6:  Symba and Nala live in a picturesque place. They enjoy nature. One day they come to the dangerous valley without food and water. Only hyenas live there. Make up a dialogue between small lions and a hyena that tells what happened with the ecology in that place. Be creative and use your imagination! You may send pictures, posters or presentations.
