S1: That sounds wonderful. Which animals live in Antarctica? S2: Penguins seem to be the only animals that live there. Perhaps they can mistake him for food and drag him across the ice to their nests. S1: There he discovers that the penguins use gold to line their nests and if he can get some and get away he will become rich again.
Now begin to write your own Sindbad story. Use the stories you have read and heard to improve your writing. Follow the process set out below (given in the text book p.65).
2 Now in pairs you are going to devise an ending for the story. Remember that you want the escape to be as exciting as possible but without using magic. Be prepared to tell your ending together to the rest of the class.
Sample Writing
One warm sunny day Sindbad was sitting
in its Baghdad home when a messenger
came banging on his door. He carried a letter from the government begging Sindbad to join an expedition bound for the islands where he had earlier found so

S2: Good thinking. Perhaps another iceberg can hit the place where the penguins live. It rocks the nests and releases the gold. In addition it exposes an old and abandoned boat covered by ice and snow and forgotten by its owners. Sindbad can use that to sail back to Baghdad. S1: Great! Let's get writing.
Sindbad grabbed the gold and looked around for a means of escape. Suddenly he saw the unmistakable outline of a ship covered by ice and snow but still seaworthy. Sindbad quickly uncovered it and seizing the oars began to row to the north. Before too long he was picked up by another ship and returned to Baghdad, covered in glory and rich once again.



Where does the adventure take place?
How does he find riches? What problem does he have? How does he escape?
Sample dialogue
S1: Where do you think Sindbad should go this time? He seems to have travelled to tropical islands and other strange places. Perhaps he should go to Antartica this time. S2: A good idea. He can set off from Baghdad and get carried by a strong wind to colder parts. His ship can be hit by an iceberg and he is the only survivor on an iceberg.
further he soon found that the glow came from gold. It seemed that the penguins lined their nests with gold! Sindbad struggled to collect some gold for himself but his efforts were in vain. Then suddenly an iceberg hit the place where the nest lay so firmly that the nest broke apart, the gold was revealed and the penguins were thrown into the sea.
Unit 2
1 Now that you have read some of Sindbad's story it is your task to complete it in an exciting way. First, in pairs, sort out the structure of the story.
But, alas, only penguins live in Antarctica so Sindbad remained hungry.
Just as he had curled himself up into a ball to try and go to sleep and forget his problems, he felt himself being pulled across the ice. A large penguin was towing him like a boat behind it and towards a large nest. Inside the nest he placed the terrified Sindbad,

many diamonds. He quickly agreed.
The day he set sail was fine and the wind strong. It carded the ship rapidly out of the harbor and into the open sea. Once there it changed into a howling gale which tore at the ship's sails and dragged it southwards. The sailors were very frightened and went below for safety but Sindbad remained on deck looking at the waves.
next to three small baby penguins. The mother penguin then began to feed the babies and kept trying to peck Sindbad and remove some flesh from his body. This action was extremely painful and to avoid it Sindbad tried to hide in the bottom of the nest. As he did so, he noticed that the bottom of the nest shone with a yellow glow and as he explored

It was lucky he did, for no sooner had the sailors gone below than the ship hit an enormous iceberg and immediately sank. All were drowned except Sindbad who was able to crawl onto the iceberg before his ship sank. He lay there in fear for some hours. Later he became so hungry that he was forced to move around on the iceberg searching for food.
