Welcome back to English 4 U,
a free magazine for learners of
English in the Arab world.
Following the launch of the

Learning English should be fun and
whatever your level of English, we
hope you will find something useful

Following our letter writing competition about ‘why I like learning
English’ in last month’s magazine, here are the four best letters. We are
sending Shada, Yasmeen, Sara, and Hussam each an English dictionary.
I like learning English because
my father and my mother speak
English and the future
communication is in English. I can find
a job easily in the future, and all the
studies in university are in English.

I like English. It helps me with computers
and American films which I like very much.
“ Your handwriting is very poooooooor ”, my
mother said. This is my problem. But I think in the
near future we won‛t need to write as everything
will be copied and saved on computers.

English is the language of business and
computers. To get a good job means
your English must be good. I also like English
because I like Arabic and I think proficiency
in Arabic leads to proficiency in English. My
problem in learning English is misspelling. But
it rarely happens. In fact I love English. It is
my favourite subject.

Global warming
This affects us now and will affect future generations. But what
exactly is global warming. Here‛s a brief explanation. Read the text
and then answer the questions on the adjacent page.
Global warming refers to the rise in the temperature of the earth‛s
atmosphere and oceans.
The earth is naturally warmed by rays from the sun which pass
through the earth‛s atmosphere and are reflected back out to space
again.
The atmosphere is made up of layers of gases, some of which are
called ‘greenhouse gases‛. They are mostly natural and make up a kind
of thermal blanket over the earth. This lets some of the rays back
out of the atmosphere, keeping the earth at the right temperature
for animals, plants and humans to survive.
But if extra greenhouse gases are made, the thermal blanket gets
thicker and too much heat is kept in the earth‛s atmosphere. This
leads to rising temperatures.
Increasing global temperatures will cause sea levels to rise due to
the melting of the glaciers and sea ice. Other effects of global
warming include an increase in the intensity of extreme weather
events, changes in agricultural yields and species extinctions.
There is considerable worldwide debate about the causes and amount
of warming expected in the future. This debate also covers what
action, if any, should be taken to reduce or reverse future warming.
Here‛s a hot
topic . . .

The Queen's Guard
The Queen’s Guard appears on the cover of this month’s magazine.
The Queen’s Guard is the name given to contingents of
soldiers charged with guarding the official royal residences in
London. Soldiers have guarded the Sovereign and the Royal
Palaces for over 300 years. The regular hand-over of guards
takes place on the forecourt of Buckingham Palace, the official
residence of The Queen in London.
Known as Changing the Guard, the process
involves a new guard exchanging duty with the
old guard. The hand-over is accompanied by
a Guard’s band. It is a very colourful and enjoyable
spectacle.
When The Queen is in residence,
there are four sentries at the front
of the building, When The Queen
is away there are only two guards.
The Queen’s Guard usually
consists of Foot Guards in their full
dress uniform of red tunics and
bear-skins.

Eid al-Adha and the Hajj
32
32
Eid al-Adha festival
marks the end of the
Hajj or Pilgrimage.
It celebrates the
sacrifice made by
the prophet Ibrahim
when God asked him
to sacrifice his own son,
Ismail. Ibrahim agreed
to do this in order to
show his commitment
and loyalty to his Lord.
As Ibrahim drew his knife to sacrifice his son,
God intervened and Ismail was replaced by
a sheep. God had asked him to sacrifice his son
to test his faith and when Ibrahim proved he
was willing to do it, God did not need him to commit the
slaughter of his own son.
This is why Muslims all over the world sacrifice an animal at
Eid al-Adha, as a reminder of Ibrahim‛s obedience to God.
The Hajj is one of the five pillars of Islam. It is the
pilgrimage to the holy city of Makkah in Saudi Arabia.
The Hajj is a duty for all Muslims who are physically and
financially able to make the pilgrimage. Eid al-Adha takes
place on the 10th day of the last month of the Islamic
calendar.

The Sharjah Museums Department has
restored some historical houses and
established museums in the heritage area
of Sharjah. These places are all well worth a
visit for both children and adults.
This month we look at Sharjah
Heritage Museum, which opened its doors
in 2004. This museum is in three
renovated traditional houses that are joined
together. In the museum you will find wonderful displays and mini-exhibitions about
the lifestyle, crafts and traditions of a centuries old society.
Exhibits date back to the time when the population was small and people relied on trade,
pearling, seafaring, fishing and farming to survive. The museum has exhibits to interest
both children and adults covering education, currency, the postal system, traditional
skills and crafts, early medicines, musical instruments, textiles and jewellery.
This is a perfect place for you to visit during
your school holidays later this month. You
can have fun and learn at the same time!

John Logie Baird and the Television
His invention
John Logie Baird
John Logie Baird was born in Helensburgh
in Scotland on 13th August 1888. He was
educated at Larchfield school and the
Glasgow and West of Scotland Technical
College.
He married Margaret Albu in 1931 and
they had two children.
During his life he invented numerous items, including a glass
razor, pneumatic shoes and thermal socks but his most famous
invention was the television.
He died in Bexhill-on-Sea in England on 14th June 1946 at the
age 57.
Although the development of television was the result of work
by many inventors, Baird is one of its foremost pioneers. He is
generally credited with being the first person to produce a live,
moving television image.
In 1925 Baird successfully transmitted in his laboratory the
first television picture.

1928 made the first transatlantic
television transmission, from London
to New York.
He demonstrated the world‛s first
colour transmission in 1928.
It is difficult to imagine life without television. TV now
spans the globe and is the world‛s most popular form of
entertainment, offering multiple channels covering all sorts of
subjects.

Melissa, Ras Al Khaimah
Please don't worry. It was the writer George Bernard Shaw who
observed that England and America are two countries divided
by a common language. Although the language is superficially the
same, there are some profound differences in vocabulary, tone,
tense usage and spelling. We will cover some of these differences
in later issues.

  • 28. Global warming 28 28 Global warming This affects us now and will affect future generations. But what exactly is global warming. Here‛s a brief explanation. Read the text and then answer the questions on the adjacent page. Global warming refers to the rise in the temperature of the earth‛s atmosphere and oceans. The earth is naturally warmed by rays from the sun which pass through the earth‛s atmosphere and are reflected back out to space again. The atmosphere is made up of layers of gases, some of which are called ‘greenhouse gases‛. They are mostly natural and make up a kind of thermal blanket over the earth. This lets some of the rays back out of the atmosphere, keeping the earth at the right temperature for animals, plants and humans to survive. But if extra greenhouse gases are made, the thermal blanket gets thicker and too much heat is kept in the earth‛s atmosphere. This leads to rising temperatures. Increasing global temperatures will cause sea levels to rise due to the melting of the glaciers and sea ice. Other effects of global warming include an increase in the intensity of extreme weather events, changes in agricultural yields and species extinctions. There is considerable worldwide debate about the causes and amount of warming expected in the future. This debate also covers what action, if any, should be taken to reduce or reverse future warming. Here‛s a hot topic . . . global warming!

  • 30. 30 30 The Queen's Guard The Queen’s Guard appears on the cover of this month’s magazine. The Queen’s Guard is the name given to contingents of soldiers charged with guarding the official royal residences in London. Soldiers have guarded the Sovereign and the Royal Palaces for over 300 years. The regular hand-over of guards takes place on the forecourt of Buckingham Palace, the official residence of The Queen in London. Known as Changing the Guard, the process involves a new guard exchanging duty with the old guard. The hand-over is accompanied by a Guard’s band. It is a very colourful and enjoyable spectacle. When The Queen is in residence, there are four sentries at the front of the building, When The Queen is away there are only two guards. The Queen’s Guard usually consists of Foot Guards in their full dress uniform of red tunics and bear-skins. The Queen’s Guard The Queen’s Guard

  • 32. Eid al-Adha and the Hajj 32 32 Eid al-Adha festival marks the end of the Hajj or Pilgrimage. It celebrates the sacrifice made by the prophet Ibrahim when God asked him to sacrifice his own son, Ismail. Ibrahim agreed to do this in order to show his commitment and loyalty to his Lord. As Ibrahim drew his knife to sacrifice his son, God intervened and Ismail was replaced by a sheep. God had asked him to sacrifice his son to test his faith and when Ibrahim proved he was willing to do it, God did not need him to commit the slaughter of his own son. This is why Muslims all over the world sacrifice an animal at Eid al-Adha, as a reminder of Ibrahim‛s obedience to God. The Hajj is one of the five pillars of Islam. It is the pilgrimage to the holy city of Makkah in Saudi Arabia. The Hajj is a duty for all Muslims who are physically and financially able to make the pilgrimage. Eid al-Adha takes place on the 10th day of the last month of the Islamic calendar. TellmeaboutEid al-Adha andtheHajj Eid al-Adha and the Hajj occur in the middle of this month.

  • 38. The Sharjah Museums Department has restored some historical houses and established museums in the heritage area of Sharjah. These places are all well worth a visit for both children and adults. This month we look at Sharjah Heritage Museum, which opened its doors in 2004. This museum is in three renovated traditional houses that are joined together. In the museum you will find wonderful displays and mini-exhibitions about the lifestyle, crafts and traditions of a centuries old society. Exhibits date back to the time when the population was small and people relied on trade, pearling, seafaring, fishing and farming to survive. The museum has exhibits to interest both children and adults covering education, currency, the postal system, traditional skills and crafts, early medicines, musical instruments, textiles and jewellery. This is a perfect place for you to visit during your school holidays later this month. You can have fun and learn at the same time! 38 38 Sharjah Museums Department P O Box 39939 Sharjah Tel 06 5566002 Fax 06 5566003 E-mail info@sharjahmuseums.ae www.sharjahmuseums.ae Sharjah Heritage Museum Opening Times Weekdays: 8 am – 8 pm Friday: 5 pm – 8pm Times vary during the month of Ramadan and Public Holidays.
