1. Quickly read the passage and choose the most suitable heading A, B, or C for each paragraph.
A. Nomadic children’s lives
B. The importance of cattle to the nomads
C. The nomads’ home
a. ________________________________________
We don’t live a normal life like many other people. We live a nomadic life. This means we move two or three times a year to look for new pastures - grasslands - for our cattle. The cattle provide most of our needs: dairy products, meat, and clothing
b. ______________________________________
We live in a ger, our traditional circular tent. It keeps us cool in summer and warm in winter, even when the temperature drops to -50°C. It can be put up then taken down and transported.
c. ______________________________________
For most of the year, we are surrounded by vast pastures, rivers and mountains. We see few people from the outside world. When we are small, we play on our land and with the animals. The horse is our best friend. Any nomadic child can ride a horse. We learn from an early age to help in the family, from household chores to heavier work like herding the cattle. We also learn to be brave.
2. Read the passage again and choose the best answer A, B, C, or D.
