About the California Condor

The California condor is the largest flying bird in North America. Their wings may stretch nearly 10 feet (3 meters) from tip to tip. When in flight, these huge birds glide on air currents to soar as high as 15,000 feet (4,600 meters).

Like other vultures, condors are scavengers that eat from the carcasses of large mammals, such as cattle and deer. When a big meal is available, the birds may eat so much that they must rest for a couple of hours before flying again.

Condors were sacred birds to the Native Americans who lived in the open spaces of western America. Today, they are best known as the subjects of a famous captive breeding program that may save them from extinction.

About the California Condor cont.

The condors came to the point of extinction in the late 1970s, when only two or three dozen birds survived. No one is sure exactly what causes or causes caused this decline. Many birds died from poison ingestion and illegal egg collection, and all birds lost the habitat over which they once flew.

California condors mature and reproduce slowly. They don't breed until they are between six and eight years old, and the female lays only one egg every two years. If that egg is removed, however, she will lay a second or a third. With this in mind, scientists began to collect eggs for captive incubation. They also captured wild birds for captive breeding and, when the wild population dropped below 10 individuals, all of the remaining wild condors were brought into captivity in 1987.

About the California Condor cont.

Thanks to many organizations and individuals, reintroduction of California condors began in 1992. Today about 127 birds live in the wild. Though they are protected, many birds still die from accidental death. Power lines are a great hazard for condors, and they live longer in areas where less humans live.

Task 5 - Grammar

In het Engels wordt de tegenwoordige tijd de Present Simple genoemd. Deze grammaticale tijd (in het Engels: tense) heb je in afgelopen thema's al meerdere keren gebruikt met de werkwoorden 'zijn' en 'hebben' (denk terug aan 'to be', have got/has got), maar voor de andere werkwoorden komen er wat regels bij.

We gebruiken de Present Simple om aan te geven dat iets is of om daarnaar te vragen (feiten, waarheden, dingen die regelmatig gebeuren). Kijk de video voor uitleg (Basics - Uitlegvideo's grammatica) en kijk naar de onderstaande afbeelding voor de samenvatting.

Task 5 Question
Je hebt in voorgaande thema's ook geleerd hoe je zegt dat je iets van plan bent door 'to be going to' te gebruiken.

Gebruik de volgende schuingedrukte steekwoorden (namen, werkwoorden) en maak daar 7 zinnen mee waarin je 'to be going to' gebruikt. Je kunt hierbij ook vraagzinnen en ontkennende zinnen gebruiken en je mag verschillende combinaties maken.

Jamal / Min-Yoongi / Jessie / Mrs Khan / Faisal's parents / The zoo-keeper / The dolphins

(not) work / (not) have / (not) do / (not) go / (not) clean / (not) feed / (not) play

Task 5 Question

Verzin nu zelf 3 zinnen waarin je beschrijft wat je wel/niet dit weekend gaat doen. Gebruik 'to be going to'.

Good Job!
