    LEVEL: TEENS 6 WORKSHEET #: 1

    READING
    Cool Carnival.

    I used to associate Carnival with the warm. South New Orleans, Mazatlán, Veracruz and Rio de
    Janeiro. I love carnivals, and I’ve been to all those traditional ones.

    But last year I did something very different – I went to the north, to Quebec, where the French
    Canadians have celebrated Carnival for more than 100 years.

    February is a cold month in Quebec. Ice and snow are usually a problem in the long Canadian winter,
    but at Carnival, they are two of the main ingredients of the festivities. In the park across from the
    National Assembly, they make an enormous Ice Palace and fantastic human and animal figures from ice
    and snow. You need action to keep warm in that weather, and there’s lots of that.

    There are ice-hockey games, races on the ice, dances, and of course, parades. The musicians wrap up
    their instruments so they don’t freeze. So you don’t freeze, you can follow the parade, or you can drink
    “Cariboo”, made from red wine and whiskey – or you can do both things, and completely forget about
    the cold!The most spectacular event is the Night Parade on the last Saturday. Crowds of tourists come to
    see it. The hotels are always full, so make your reservations in advance.
