Draw an island in the sea. There are some mountains in the middle of the island. There are some rocks to the north from the mountains. In the west next to the mountains is a palm-tree. There is a house in the east at the bottom of the mountains. There is a small lake to the south from the house. A narrow road connects the lake and the house. And

a lonely elephant is going along the road to the house.

2. Listening

Listen to the texts and complete the information.

The second tallest hotel in the world is the Burj Al-Arab (Tower of the Arabs) in Dubai (United Arab Emirates in Asia). It’s 320 metres tall. The hotel is situated on a man-made island 280 metres out of the beach and is designed in the shape of a sail. It is one of the most expensive ho­tels in the world.

Several years ago a Dutch architect Jan Sonkie built a very unusual house in Africa. It’s shaped like a football! “I’m crazy about football”, he says. He built his house in Malawi because he just likes Africa and would like to stay on the continent forever. Standing on a three-metre – tall brick wall, his home has become a popular tourist attraction.
