INSTITUTO DE ENSINO BRASIL – ESTADOS UNIDOS RC 8 - WORLD LINK 3B FINAL ORAL EXAM Teacher’s Sheet Part one: Reading Note: select a paragraph of the text and ask the student to read it aloud. Can Animals Lie? Can animals lie? They can certainly be deceitful. For example, an insect called a hoverfly does not sting, but it looks just like a stinging wasp. Birds can't tell the difference between hoverflies and wasps, so they stay away from both of them. In a similar way, many animals deceive using color and shape. Some insects look just like sticks or leaves. Some fish look just like rocks. Some butterflies have wing patterns that look just like the eyes of an owl. Or consider the case of the anglerfish. On the front of its head, it has a small knob that it wiggles to attract smaller fish. When a fish comes near, the anglerfish pulls back the wiggling "bait" and grabs the fish! Do any of these examples show that animals actually lie? That depends on what you call a lie. If a lie is simply deception, then many animals lie. But if a lie is a choice between true and false, these examples are probably not lies. Hoverflies, for example, cannot choose to look like wasps. Butterflies cannot choose the patterns on their wings. In that case, human beings are probably the only organisms that can choose to tell lies. Part two: Vocabulary 1. When choosing for a hotel, what features do you look for? 2. Do all lottery winners have a happy life after they win? 3. What would you do if you suddenly struck rich? 4. Have you ever been lost?

Describe two or three situations where it might be better to lie or not to tell the truth. 8. Are you kind to strangers? Many people are not kind to strangers. Why is this? Give possible reasons. 8. What places of natural beauty do people like to visit? Give three examples. What is nice about each place? 9. Do natural places need to be protected from too many visitors? Why or why not?
