READING TOGETHER -  MOONFLOWER

Selinecereus is a special cactus that naturally grows in Central and South America. People sometimes call it the ‘moonflower’ because it blooms only for one night.

Only 13 botanic gardens in the world grow this plant, and last week, it bloomed in the UK. Botanists were very excited because it happened in the UK for the first time. Botanists at Cambridge University did not sleep all week, and they watched the plant all the time. They did not want to miss the chance to see the 28-centimeter flower.

The flower smells very strongly and sweetly, but when the plant begins to die, the smell changes and it is very unpleasant.

Wat denk je dat een 'botanist' is?

Wat denk je dat 'to bloom' betekent?

RUBBISH MOUNTAIN

A big landfill is in Russia. It is 50 meters high. It is on 33 hectares of land. It looks like a mountain. Big trucks bring 1,000 tons of rubbish every day. It is rubbish from buildings fifty years ago.

It is all kind of rubbish today. Smoke and dangerous gas come out from the landfill. Wind blows the gas to the nearby town. People breathe the dangerous gas. It smells bad, too.

An environmental organization knows the situation. They ask the owner to close the landfill. Nothing happens. Trucks come every day.

People protest. Nobody is listening.

Wat is een 'landfill'?

Wat betekent 'environmental'?
