LÍNGUA INGLESA INSTRUÇÃO: As Questões De 01 a 10 Referem-Se Ao Texto Abaixo LÍNGUA INGLESA INSTRUÇÃO: As questões de 01 a 10 referem-se ao texto abaixo. Four-legged friends 01 Britain is known as a nation of animal lovers, but we doubt many of the Queen’s citizens have invited their 02 favourite pet to join them on honeymoon! But that is just what Her Majesty did in 1947, when she and Philip traveled 03 to an historic stately home in Hampshire and then to Birkhill after their wedding – her first ever Corgi, Susan, came 04 along for the ride. For those who know the Queen, this should come as no surprise, because her well-known love 05 affair with dogs and horses began when she was just a toddler. Though her childhood was a privileged one, in many 06 ways it was also rather isolated. As a royal, she was different from other children, but in her animals’ eyes, young 07 Elizabeth’s royal status meant nothing – they could not judge, or treat her differently, but loved her as any loyal pet 08 would their owner. 09 The Queen has developed a strong passion for horse racing, and to this day remains as an avid fan and 10 owner. Her great love of horses began when she learned to ride at just three years old! And while Her Majesty never 11 has a bet, but that is not to say she has not had her share of racing successes – the Queen’s various thoroughbreds 12 have won countless trophies over the years. 13 Racehorses owned by the Queen have won four out of the racing’s five “classics” – the 1,000 Guineas, the 14 2,000 Guineas, the Oaks and the St Leger – with only the Derby left to conquer. To date, she has had 20 wins at 15 Royal Ascot. The most recent was in 2008 – the Queen was heard crying “I’ve done it!”, when her horse Free Agent 16 crossed the line! 17 These days, horses remain a hobby the Queen enjoys with her family. She is often seen attending race 18 meetings and polo events, and last summer, aged 85, was photographed on horseback enjoying a ride with her young 19 grandchildren – 82 years since she first got into the saddle! 20 After she learnt to ride horses at a very early age, Elizabeth’s passion for the animals grew – they would clearly 21 play a big part in her life. It was after she accompanied her parents to Naseby Hall in Northamptonshire for the 22 hunting season that her horse fascination became apparent, as the young royal kept running off to the stables. Just a 23 year later, she was already learning to ride – and when she was four she was given her first pony, Peggy. 24 Like hundreds of other schoolgirls across the land, Elizabeth was horse-obsessed, and had two riding lessons a 25 week at Buckingham Palace, along with her sister, Princess Margaret. 26 Princess Elizabeth was soon winning trophies. In 1943 and 1944, she got first prize at the Royal Windsor Horse 27 Show for driving a utility vehicle harnessed to her black pony. 28 Dogs also played an important part in Her Majesty’s life. Walks with them have had a great effect on her, with 29 the exercise certainly helping to keep her fit. “She is just amazing at her age and walks a long way,” her son prince 30 Andrew once said. “The dogs certainly keep her active.” 31 But the royal corgis have sometimes created controversy as well. Traditionally, they were bred to herd sheep by 32 biting their legs – and there have been a few tales of ankles being nipped within the royal household! 33 Susan was well known for biting servants’ legs and one of her descendants, Whisky, once apparently tore the 34 seat right out of a guard’s trousers! The Queen herself was bitten on the hand in 1991 while trying to break up a dog 35 fight and needed three stitches. She had already called in a dog psychiatrist for advice on this particular pet, but the 36 incident has not decreased her affection. 37 As a schoolgirl, young Elizabeth once told her riding instructor, Horace Smith, that if she had not been born into 38 the Royal Family, she would like to have been “a lady living in the country with lots of horses and dogs”. Thankfully for 39 us, she could not escape her royal ties, but four-legged friends have certainly played a central part in her life. The 40 three corgis: Monty, Willow and Holly are all firm fixtures in her royal entourage, tagging along on many of her official 41 visits and engagements. Palace insiders have even joked that the Queen’s dogs live better than their human 42 counterparts, and there is no doubt they are pampered. (A Royal Celebration-Diamond Jubilee Collectors’ edition.

  • YKC Spotlight on Art Dookie.Pdf
    Spotlight on Art Dookie Dookie by Lucy Dawson Copyright: The Kennel Club Arts Foundation This lovely pastel is of the Welsh Corgi Dookie by Lucy Dawson. Dookie was very special as he was the first Corgi owned by King George VI, Her Majesty The Queen’s father. It was because of Dookie that the then Princess Elizabeth fell in love with the breed and has become one of the longest established breeders of Corgis. Dookie, whose Kennel Name was Rozavel Golden Eagle was bred by Thelma Gray in 1933 and as we know was the first in a long line of Royal Corgis. Dookie was chosen by His Majesty King George VI because he had a slightly longer tail than his litter mates. This appealed to the then Princess Elizabeth as she wanted him to have something to wag so that she would know if he was pleased or not. The artist is Lucy Dawson. She was particularly well known for her book illustrations and also produced a number of postcards under the pseudonym ‘Mac’. Many will recognise this as the name that appears on a lot of her work. She drew this portrait of Dookie at Royal Lodge, Windsor. Dookie by Lucy Dawson Your activity The artist has used pastels for this portrait as she did with most of her work. Have a closer look at it - what do you like about it? It’s a lovely memory of a first childhood pet. Perhaps you could draw a memory you have of when you first got your dog? Maybe it could be the first time they came home, or with the first toy you bought them? Have fun creating a lovely memory to keep!.

While keeping with the reflective mood, this month I did something I have been wanting to do for some time. I have joined Animals Australia. Animals Australia works to protect the most vulnerable and abused animals in our society. They are investigating and trying to stop exporting our sheep which has recently had evidence of inhumane conditions and treatment while being exported on large ships. Hopefully when people power gets into full swing things might just change for all animals who are treated unfairly and cruelly. On a lighter note, last week’s Woodlands Book Launch was a huge success with NBN reporter and camera man joining us.
