Georgie Ella's network of volunteers sewing reusable sanitary pads grew, and to date the Pachamama Project has donated tens of thousands of period products to refugees fleeing conflict in Syria, Turkey and Lebanon, as well as women here in the UK. Beth Plus, the project is helping in other ways too. Despite affecting so many people, and being necessary for life itself, many cultures consider menstruation unclean or shameful, not a topic of polite conversation. But Ella thinks her project is giving refugees the confidence to talk about periods, as she told BBC World Service's, People Fixing the World: Ella Lambert I have seen such major change in such a short short period of time. Like, the women originally who were distributing the pads would barely even speak about it and we had it behind a curtain, and now they'll chat away about the pads with their male colleagues, anyone that comes into the shop... Georgie ほとんどない Before, most women refugees would barely talk about menstruation, they would only just, scarcely talk about it. But now they're happily chatting away, passing the time talking to other women, and even to male colleagues.

Note: This is not a word-for-word transcript. Neil Hello. This is 6 Minute English from BBC Learning English. I'm Neil. Beth And I'm Beth. Neil Shhh! Quiet please! I'm trying to read here, Beth! Beth Oh, excuse me! I didn't know this was a library. Neil Well, what exactly is a library? Have you ever thought about that? Beth Well, somewhere with lots of books I suppose, where you go to read or study. Neil A symbol of knowledge and learning, a place to keep warm in the winter, or somewhere to murder victims in a crime novel: libraries can be all of these things, and more. Beth In this programme, we'll be looking into the hidden life of the library, including one of the most famous, the Great Library of Alexandria, founded in ancient Egypt in around 285 BCE. And as usual, we'll be learning some useful new vocabulary, and doing it all in a whisper so as not to disturb anyone! Neil Glad to hear it! But before we get out our library cards, I have a question for you, Beth. Founded in 1973 in central London, the British Library is one of the largest libraries in the world, containing around 200 million books. But which of the following can be found on its shelves. Is it: a) the earliest known printing of the Bible? b) the first edition of The Times' newspaper from 1788? or, c) the original manuscripts of the Harry Potter books? Beth I'II guess it's the first edition of the famous British newspaper, 'The Times'. Neil OK, Beth, I'll reveal the answer at the end of the programme. Libraries mean different things to different people, so who better to ask than someone who has written the book on it, literally. Professor Andrew Pettegree is the author of a new book, 'A Fragile History of the Library'. Here he explains what a library means to him to BBC Radio 3 programme, Art & Ideas: Andrew Pettegree Well, in my view, a library is any collection of books which is deliberately put together by its owner or patron. So, in the 15th century a library can be 30 manuscripts painfully put together during the course of a lifetime, or it can be two shelves of paperbacks in your home. Beth Andrew defines a library as any collection of books someone has intentionally built up. This could be as simple as a few paperbacks, cheap books with a cover made of thick paper.

Phil Hello. This is 6 Minute English from BBC Learning English. I'm Phil. Beth And I'm Beth. Are you a big reader, Phil? Phil Sure, I enjoy reading - and it's also a great way to pass the time on my daily commute to work. But reading isn't just a nice thing to do - it's an essential skill, something you need for everyday activities, whether that's finding out the news by reading a newspaper or buying groceries by reading the labels. Beth And that's why I was shocked by a recent UN report estimating that around the world over 700 million adults are illiterate, which means they can't read or write. Phil Wow! That's a huge number of people excluded from doing basic day-to-day things. So, what can be done to get more adults reading and writing? In this programme, we'll be hearing about projects in two very different countries trying to do just that. And, as usual, we'll be learning some useful new vocabulary as well. Beth But first I have a question for you, Phil. I mentioned a recent UN report on the high numbers of people unable to read and write, but illiteracy is not a new problem. Since 1967, the UN has been highlighting the importance of literacy, being able to read and write, with a day of celebration called International Literacy Day. But when does it take place? Is it: a) the 8th of March? b) the 8th of June? or, c) the 8th of September? Phil I think International Literacy Day is on the 8th of September. Beth OK, Phil, we'll find out if that's correct at the end of the programme. The biggest reason people grow up illiterate is not going to school, and that's especially true for people living in the coastal towns of Bangladesh. Because these towns flood regularly, families are always on the move, making it hard for children to get an education. Phil The Friendship Project teaches reading and writing to groups of Bangladeshi women and girls. They also teach numeracy which means the ability to do basic maths like counting and adding up. Here one student, Rashida, explains the impact it's had on her to BBC World Service programme, People Fixing The World: Rashida My parents never sent me to school and I've suffered from not being able to read and write. My children were embarrassed that I was illiterate. I couldn't even do basic accounting. Until now, I've had to use my fingerprint as a signature as I was illiterate, but now I can sign my name because I can read and write thealphabet, and I'll also be able to keep an account of my expenses. No one can cheat me anymore. Beth Before the Friendship Project, Rashida couldn't write her signature – her name written in her own handwriting. Instead, she had to use her fingerprint. Now, Rashida has learned the alphabet and also some basic maths, so she knows how much money she's spent, and how much she has left. This means no-one can cheat her, can trick or swindle her into taking her money.

Phil Hello. This is 6 Minute English from BBC Learning English. I'm Phil. Beth And I'm Beth. Phil So, Beth, we're talking about the best education systems in the world today. You went to school here in Britain. What do you think of the British education system? Do you think it could be the best? Beth I think that it's quite good, there's probably a couple of things that I personally would change about it, but I would say it's quite good, but maybe not the best in the world. Phil Well, in this programme, we're going to be talking about the Pisa rankings. Beth The rankings are based on tests carried out by the OECD, that's an international organisation, every three years. The tests attempt to show which countries are the most effective at teaching maths, science and reading. But is that really possible to measure? Well, here is former BBC education correspondent Sean Coughlan talking to BBC World Service programme 'The Global Story'. Sean Coughlan When they were introduced first of all, that was a very contentious idea, because people said 'how can you possibly compare big countries... how can you compare America to Luxembourg or to, you know, or to parts of China, or whatever?' Phil Sean said that the tests were contentious. If something is contentious, then it is something that people might argue about it's controversial. So, at first, Pisa tests were contentious because not everyone believed it was fair to compare very different countries. Beth Phil, I've got a question for you about them. So, in 2022, Singapore was top of the reading rankings. But which of these countries came second? Was it: a) The USA? b) Ireland? or, c) The UK? Phil I think it might be b) Ireland. Beth OK. Well, we will find out if that's correct at the end of the programme. A common pattern in the Pisa rankings is that the most successful countries tend to be smaller. Talking to BBC World Service programme 'The Global Story', Sean Coughlan tells us that many large countries from Western Europe don't score that highly in the rankings. Sean Coughlan They're being outpaced and outperformed by these fast, upcoming countries - you know, Singapore, or Estonia, or Taiwan, or those sort of places which we don't historically think of as being economic rivals, but I suppose the argument for Pisa tests is, if you want to have a knowledge economy, an economy based on skills, this is how you measure it. Phil We heard that many large European countries are being outpaced by smaller nations. If someone outpaces you, they are going faster than you - at a higher pace.

5 UNIT3 Reading Passage 10 15 20 20 25 30 Listening When important events are happening around the world, most people turn to traditional media sources, such as CNN and BBC,¹ for their news. However, during the invasion of Iraq by the United States and its allies in early 2003, a significant number of people followed the war from the point of view of an anonymous² Iraqi citizen who called himself "Salam Pax" (salam means "peace" in Arabic, and pax means "peace" in Latin). Salam Pax wrote a diary about everyday life in Baghdad during the war, and posted it on his web site. Pax's online diary was a kind of web site known as a "blog." Blogs, short for "web-logs," are online diaries usually kept by individuals, but sometimes they are written by companies and other groups of people. They are a rapidly growing type of web site on the Internet. There are estimated to be several hundred thousand blogs on the Internet, and with the popularity of other social media sites, the number of people writing online about their lives continues to grow. may find A blog differs from a traditional web site in several ways. Most importantly, it is updated much more regularly. Many blogs are updated every day, and some are updated several times a day. Also, most blogs use special software or web sites which are specifically aimed at bloggers, so you do not need to be a computer expert to create your own blog. This means that ordinary people who computers difficult to use can easily set up and start writing their own blog. In 2003, the Internet company AOL³ introduced their own blogging service, enabling its 35 million members to quickly and easily start blogging. There are many different kinds of blogs. The most popular type is an online diary of links, where the blog writer surfs the Internet and then posts links to sites or news articles that they find interesting, with a few comments about each one. Other types are personal diaries, where the writer talks about their life and feelings. Sometimes these blogs can be very personal. There is another kind of blogging, called "moblogging," short for "mobile blogging." Mobloggers use cell phones to take photo's, which are posted instantly to the Internet. When the content and images posted online involve news subjects, mobloggers become citizen journalists. In fact, the Korean web site OhMyNews was a well known source for articles from international citizen journalists. However, in 2010, OhMyNews stopped posting new articles. Instead, it is now a blog site where citizen journalists can choose what makes the headlines, or just share ideas about how regular people are changing the news world. Anyone who visits the web site of a big media company can clearly see how the idea of blogging has changed the reporting of news. Quite often, a list of reader comments follow news articles. It seems that the news is becoming less like a report or a lecture, and more like a conversation, where anyone can join in.
