Passage 12: (From: New World Student Book 2, Review 3, page 71, Focus on the World)

Can you imagine a sport that is a combination of soccer,
volleyball, and gymnastics and that is played on a badminton
court? There is really a sport like this! It’s called sepak takraw.
The name comes from two languages. Sepak is “kick” in Malay,
and takraw is “ball” in Thai.

Sepak takraw is a very popular sport in Asia and is growing rapidly. Each team has three
players. Players stand on opposite sides of a five-foot high net. Each team tries to send the ball
back over the net to the other team. Players can use their feet, knees, backs, shoulders, or
heads, but they can’t use their hands or arms. Like in volleyball, there are passes and sets, and
the rules of the two games are very similar. The takraw ball is made of plastic, or of rattan
(a material like bamboo), and it weighs 170 to 190 grams.

The game is very fast, and the ball can travel up to 140 kilometers per hour. Players jump, float
in the air, flip upside down, and perform acrobatic stunts to block or smash the ball. Sepak
takraw is an exciting game to play and to watch.

Passage 16: (From: New World Student Book 2, Review 4, page 95, Focus on the World)

Dolphins are amazing animals. Stories of dolphins 33
protecting humans go back to ancient Greece.
Here’s a recent one.

Todd Endris went surfing with his friends near
Monterey, California. While he was sitting on his
surfboard, a giant white shark attacked Todd three
times. The first time the shark couldn’t get its jaws
around the surfer and the board. The second time

mouth. And the third time it bit off the surfer’s right leg.
Todd kicked the shark’s nose with his left leg until
it let go. But Todd needed a miracle to survive.

That’s when a group of dolphins came to his rescue. They circled him and protected him from
the shark. Todd was able to get back to the beach on his board. Fortunately Todd’s friend on
the beach knew first aid. The friend tied something around Todd’s leg to stop the blood, and
rushed him to the hospital. Four months later Todd was back surfing in the same place where he
