رابط الدرس الرق 8 Reading Before Reading www.ien.edu.sa What do you know about camels? Have you ever ridden one? Ships of the Desert "It's the one of the most uncomfortable experiences I've ever had. But it was incredibly fun! I'll never forget it!” That's what many people say after they have ridden a camel for the first time. Camels, also known as "ships of the desert," have been a favorite means of transport for millennia due to their ability to withstand the hot, dry climate of the desert. Riding a camel is not the same as riding a horse. First, the rider must sit and balance himself about two meters above the ground on the camel's hump. Second, a camel walks differently than a horse. It moves the two right legs together, and then the two left legs. This can make the rider swing from side to side. Riding a camel for the first time? Here are some helpful tips: 1. Wear sunscreen, long sleeves, and a hat for protection from the hot sun. 2. Wear long pants and socks to protect your legs from getting itchy. 3. Always go riding with an experienced cameleer who knows the animal. Camels are emotional and will respond better if a familiar person is nearby. 4. Get on when the camel is in a sitting position. Put one foot on a small stool and then throw your other leg over the camel's hump in one motion. 5. When the camel stands up, hold on tight and grip your knees around the camel's sides. As the camel leans forward, lean back in the opposite direction to keep from falling. 6. Sit and hold the reins confidently. Camels are intelligent and can sense if you are nervous. 7. Relax in the saddle and bend your knees at a 90° angle. This will help you balance as the camel swings you from side to side. 8. After the ride, wait for the camel to sit down. Hold on. Lean back and then forward, just as you did when the camel stood up. After Reading 1. Why are camels called "ships of the desert"? 2. How is riding a camel different from riding a horse? 3. What are two characteristics of camels? 4. Which tip do you think is the most important and why? 3500 IVERY THING وزارة التعليم Ministry of Education 2024-1446 SG_02_COMBO_TEXT_2024.indb 143 143 30/4/24 12:07 AM
