The famous writer Charles Dickens was born near London in 1812. At school he was a clever child and enjoyed reading from a very young age. In his late teens he even invented stories of his own for fun.
Around this time, Dickens's family became poor and he had to work for ten hours a day in a dirty factory. The work was hard and the workers were treated unfairly. When his own family was wealthy again and he no longer had to work, Dickens did not forget what he had experienced. He was very caring and he wanted to help those who were less lucky than himself.
He became an author and published many books about the suffering of the poor. The books made him immediately famous and people all around the world were reading what he had to say. The success of Dickens's stories made politicians try to improve working conditions for the poor in Britain.

Q1. Read the following texts and complete the exercises.
A- (a) Rowing is one of the oldest activities in the world. Detailed 3000-year-old Egyptian drawings show men rowing boats down the River Nile to move people or heavy objects from one place to another. Some warriors even rowed just to show how strong they were!
(b) Modern day rowing is usually for fun, not for moving things around. People row together as a team or ‘crew’. In a full crew, there are usually eight people rowing and one extra person who guides the boat. To be a good rower, you must be very fit and you must be able to keep going even when you feel like stopping.
(c) Rowing is one of the original sports in the modern Olympic Games. Taking part in the Olympics is one of the highest honours for modern rowers. One of the world’s greatest rowers is the British athlete Steve Redgrave. He won a gold medal at five Olympic Games. Only three other people in the world have ever done this.

a- Rowing was used for transport in ancient Egypt.
