1. We all love games, and in the UAE on a quiet Friday afternoon at home, or over a Turkish
coffee with your cousin, you can kick back and have some fun with the board game,
backgammon. A game for two players, backgammon uses a rectangular board with 24
long triangles, or points, and 30 black and white pieces. Players throw two dice and move
the pieces according to the number shown on the dice. The winner is the first player to
remove all their pieces from the board.
2. Many Emiratis have learned backgammon from their fathers or grandfathers, but the name
itself comes from Middle English ‘back’ and ‘gamen’, meaning ‘game.’ The earliest use of
the word, less than four hundred years ago, was in 1650. The game itself, however, is much
older. Some people think it is based on ‘Senet,’ a board game played by the ancient
Egyptians in 3500 BC, widely recognised as the oldest board game in the world. Others
believe that it comes from the royal game of ‘Ur,’ which was played in Mesopotamia
(what is now Iraq, Syria, Turkey and Iran) around 3000 BC.
3. From these Middle Eastern roots, over 5000 years ago, backgammon quickly spread
around the world. In fact, the ancient Romans, Rajas in India, fishermen in Iceland and
French kings have all enjoyed it. Nowadays, everyone from royalty to commoners plays it,
even online, making it a truly global game.

1. On long, hot summer days in the UAE, we often wish we lived in a cooler climate. But
have you ever thought about life in the Arctic Circle – the region of the North Pole
covering parts of Canada, the US, Russia, and Greenland? Eskimos’ inhabit this
challenging, but beautiful hunting and fishing region all year round. In fact, the word
Eskimo means “eater of raw meat”.
2. Historically, most of the Eskimos’ food came from the Arctic Ocean. This included seals,
whales, and fish such as salmon and cod. In summer they also hunted caribou, a type of
deer. Because Eskimos were traditionally hunters, they did not live in one place. [A] They
needed to move around to find animals to catch and eat. When travelling to hunt, they built
temporary dwellings called igloos – round houses made from blocks of snow.
3. Eskimo transportation was both fast and effective. To carry heavy loads while travelling,
teams of dogs were used to pull sleds across the ice. When travelling on the water, they
used kayaks. Not ones to waste, Eskimos made knives and other weapons from the bones
and teeth of animals killed for food. [b] The skins of these animals were also used to make
clothes, which needed to be very warm to protect them from the harsh environment.
4. Like elsewhere in the world, life for Eskimos in the 21st century is quite different from the
past. Prey from the Arctic land and sea is disappearing, making hunting quite difficult.
This is mainly because the introduction of guns and other modern weapons in the 20th
Century led to too many animals being killed. This means it is now harder for them to earn
money from hunting.[C]
5. Most Eskimos now prefer to live in modern houses in smaller communities. As is often the
case, modern clothing is replacing traditional dress, and most food is bought, rather than
hunted. [D] Motorboats and snowmobiles have taken the place of kayaks and dogsleds.
Life in the Artic Circle has changed, much like it has elsewhere in the world. So if you
want to imagine what life is like for Eskimos your age, look around you. It’s probably not
so different from your own.

1. You are walking down the street. Suddenly, you see someone fall to the ground, unable to
breathe and holding his chest. What should you do? Your actions in those important first
minutes could save a life.
2. When someone suffers a heart attack, he stops breathing and his heartbeat stops or is irregular.
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is an emergency procedure that can mean the difference
between life and death. CPR involves two main processes. The first is resuscitation, which
requires you to blow air into the victim’s mouth. You can help prevent brain damage by
blowing air into the mouth, and therefore into the lungs. It also allows more time for you to
re-start the victim’s heart. The second is chest compressions to keep blood circulating around
the body.
3. To do CPR, just remember your A-B-Cs. After calling for help, carefully lay the victim on his
back and start with step A. ‘A’ stands for airway. Tilt the victim’s head back and see if he is
breathing. If he isn’t, continue to step B. ‘B’ is for breathing. Hold the victim’s nose closed
and blow two long breaths into his mouth. You should see his chest move up and down. Then
move on to step C, blood circulation, beginning with chest compressions. Push down just
below the victim’s breast bone, above the stomach. Do 100 compressions per 60 seconds.
Stop after 30 compressions and give two breaths to the victim. By following these steps, blood
and oxygen will flow to the body’s major organs.
4. Of course, this is just a brief description of CPR. If you want further information about CPR
and certification, you should contact hospitals, government agencies, or schools. You can also
get pamphlets and videos about other health-related emergencies there. In some community
centres you can take a course in the important skill of CPR.
5. At least one member of every family should be able to do CPR in emergency situations.
Almost 80% of cardiac arrest victims fall ill at home, with family members nearby. Sadly, less
than 7% of them survive, partly because no one there knows the three steps of CPR.
Remember, saving a life is as easy as A-B-C.
