Hi, I'm Carla and l'm from NYC, the

home of hip hop. l'm a rapper and

my stage name is C-block.

I started rapping at the age of six.

l'm a big fan of hip hop and I rap

everywhere, at school, on the bus

even in the shower. I don't want to

do anything else all day. The best time is

when I go to hip hop parties and perform with

DJs. lts out of this worldl Carla, New York City

and we practise every day in Russell's garage. He's one of the
band members. I learnt the acoustic guitar at school and l'm
fond of classical guitar music, too. I compose most of the music
but I don't write the lyrics for our songs. Doing gigs with the
band is the biggest thrill, and next month we're going to a studio
to record some of our songs. We're very enthusiastic about it!

Darren. Manchester

My name's Sheila and my dream is to become a professional DJ when I grow

up. My dad's got a huge music collection and when I was young, I listened to his

records all the time. Today, I find most of them old school. I still enjoy listening to a

wide variety of music, but dance music with a strong beat is my favourite. Nobody

has a party at my school without me as the DJ because I know how to create the

right atmosphere, and'get people dancingl Sheila, Melbourne

I think graffiti makes our city look ugly. I receive many letters about graffiti

and all of them complain about this problem. we spend lots of money every

year cleaning up the mess. This is why next month we're starting a new
campaign which will provide special places for graffiti artists to work. we
hope to encourage artists to stop ruining public places and at the same time

give them a place to show their work. Linda Baines

l'm really interested in graffiti and I think it's
a great way for young people to express
themselves. My friends and I started by
designing our own tags. A boy in my class
started spraying his tag all over the city, this
is called 'bombing', and he got into loads
of trouble with the authorities. My uncle
really likes graffiti too and he let me create a
'wildstyle piece'on his garage wall with lots

of complicated shapes and letters' Both my
uncle and aunt liked it but neither of them
could understand what it meant.

Can you guess which one it is? Then listen, read and check your answers.

1. A plant that grows so fast you can see it grow. 3. A plant with square leaves that tastes like coffee.
2. A tree that holds over IOO,OOO litres of water. 4. A plant that traps and eats small animals.

There are over 350,000 species of plants on Earth. You can: living almost
everywhere and they grow in all shapes and

Baobab

These strange-looking trees are found in Africa and Australia and most
live for thousands of years. The baobab has an enormous trunk which
is swollen and full of water. It can be J-11 metres wide and some can
hold up to 120,000 litres. The tree stores the water so it can survive
during the difficult dry season. In Western Australia during the 1890s,
the police used a hollow baobab tree as a prison when taking prisoners

Pitcher Plant 'l

Pitcher plants are very colourful, .
meat-eating plants with a 'pitcher' full of
liquid. They are also called monkey cups i

because sometimes monkeys use them to
drink water. Insects are attracted to the plant's
nectar and they slip down the sides of the
pitcher into the sticky liquid. There is no way
to escape, so they drown and are 'ealen'.
A species in Borneo has a large pitcher that
can hold 3.5 litres of liquid, and sometimes
even rats or lizards get trapped in there.

Bamboo
B";b;;;rlls in many different climates. from cold mountains to hot tropical

forests. It can grow up to 30m tall. But bamboo isn't a tree, it's actually the
largest member of the grass family. Bamboo is very useful because it's used as
building material and food as well as for making furniture. paper, medicine or
even musical instruments. Bamboo also holds the record for being the fastest
growing plant. It can grow 90cm in one day, so if you're walking through a
bamboo forest, stop for a while and watch. You'll be surprised!
