Woodpeckers are found all over the world except in the North and South poles, Australia, and New Zealand. There are over 200 different kinds of woodpeckers.

Salt is a type of mineral. Adding a little salt to food can bring out the food’s natural avor. It can also be used to preserve food. Not only does salt improve our diets, it is essential to our health. Our muscles need it to move. Our hearts need it to beat. Even the brain and nerves need salt to communicate and function properly. If we do not get enough salt, the systems in our bodies do not work well. We might get tired, and our thinking might slow down. Our muscles might get sore, or we might even get headaches. Eating salt helps our bodies and minds work better.
However, just as too much salt can ruin the avor of food, it can also harm our bodies. Scientists say that too much salt can cause high blood pressure. This is dangerous because it can lead to heart problems. And because people tend to like the taste of salty food, heart problems are becoming more common.
Salt is an important mineral that our bodies need. We can’t live without it. However, it is wise to pay attention to the amount of salt in your diet if you care about your health.

Read the text and answer the questions according to it.
Learning something new can be a scary experience. One of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do was
learning how to swim. I was always afraid of the water, but I decided that swimming was an important skill that I should learn. I also thought it would be good exercise and help me to become physically stronger. What I didn’t realize was that learning to swim would also make me a more confident person. New situations always make me a bit nervous, and my first swimming lesson was no exception. After I changed into my bathing suit in the locker room, I stood timidly by the side of the pool waiting for the teacher and other students to show up. After a couple of minutes the teacher came over. She smiled and introduced herself, and two more students joined us. Although they were both older than me, they didn’t seem to be embarrassed about not knowing how to swim. I began to feel more at ease.

With wings that can stretch to almost three metres long, the California condor is the largest flying
bird found in America. The huge condor is mostly black with big white wing patterns. It has no feathers on its head. It is a scavenger, which means it eats dead animals. Unlike its close relative, the vulture, which is rare, the California condor finds food by sight rather than by smell. The California condor is also an endangered bird. This means it is rare and needs help to survive. These birds became rare because the dead animals they feed on often contain lead, a kind of metal, which is dangerous for the birds. Today, there are only about 230 California condors left in the wild. Scientists are working hard to make sure these birds survive.
