Poema (Faixa 5)
The canvas still stays black on white.
No time to paint in you.
How fast daylight fades into night.
No colors left to choose.
Your portraits finished, over, for you there is no change.
I am black on white and colored, a wider spectrum range.
Could we have filled a canvas as we travelled through the years?
The pallet filled with colors of laughter, love, some tears.
I never even said goodbye, you vanished without trace.
From the sky you drifted to some undiscovered place.
You forever stay the youth, who captured my young heart.
I read your name in black on white on the cenotaph in the park.

The poem I'm going to recite is called "Dreams" by Langston Hughes:
Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.

My name is David and I'm nine. I'm in year five at school.
There are three people in my family: myself, my mum and my brother, Ricky,
who's got Down syndrome. I have to care for my brother Ricky, who is 12, and I
also have to do a lot of stuff that other kids wouldn't normally do, like make his
breakfast, take him to the bathroom, get him to bed, and sometimes get him
dressed.
I also help my mum. I sometimes go shopping with her because she can't carry
the bags.
My favourite hobby is... playing the guitar. I also like listening to music quite a
lot, and I like playing with my toys.
The good thing about me and my brother is that we always know that... He
always knows that I'll be there for him.

I'm always getting people coming up to me and saying: Vicky, what do you do?
And I say I'm a visual merchandiser and everyone says what's that? And I like

When I was at school I didn't really know what I wanted to do when I was older.

me into college actually on to a course on 3D design and display. While I was at
college we had to do a week's work experience. So we went for one week's
work experience me and another girl and we got on so well they offered us a job
at the end of it. So it was really good, I was really pleased with it. It was like kind
of I didn't expect it so it was really excellent.
As the team leader I'm responsible for looking after the team. In the future what

Basically I need to learn about the managerial side of the job like managing
people and so on and that would be great.

"Save the plants!" is not something you hear very often, but a study has shown
that plants are just as much at risk of extinction as endangered animals like
leopards and pandas.
There are at least 38,000 plant species on the Earth, but one in five could
disappear if we don't start to take more care of them. Humans can't survive
without plants, and we can't afford to lose one in five of them.
Most of the plants under threat are in the tropical rain forest of the Amazon,
which is being cut down at a huge rate so the land can be used for grazing
animals and growing crops.
Governments have been meeting to try to find ways to protect plants from
human activity, but they know we all have a lot more to do.
Plants are all around us - some delicate and beautiful, some big and bold! And
many hold surprising treasures.
We can say that there are many children alive today who've survived leukemia
because of a plant that was found on a remote island and was found to have
compounds that were capable of curing leukemia.
So we just don't know which plants are going to be useful to us in the future,
and I think we owe it to our children and our grandchildren to leave them all the
plants as all the possibilities for the future.

Reporter:
How do you tell the story of a city?
In London at least it should be easy.
After all, this is one of the most written about places in the world.
Plus, there are many museum and historic buildings that will explain the history
of the capital.
But what about the everyday... the ordinary?
Well one way to explore that sort of past is to look at adverts.
Look up... and you'll be surprised at how many old adverts, hand-painted and
dating back to the late nineteenth century, still survive on London's streets.
They were from an era when people used to walk a lot more; people would
have slower forms of transport.
These days we have cars, fast buses, everything was a lot slower in the days
when these were around. And so they would be much more noticeable there.
They're not just fading, they're completely disappearing.
Every year more are painted over, more are demolished, or are simply erased
by time.

Winnie and Joan are volunteers in a project called Building Bridges in which
elderly and young people work together. In this instance to write poetry.
Winnie: You can get a lot from poetry, I think. Especially when you are on your
own and you're reading it and you're into it somehow. It makes it feel that it's all
real. When we went to school poetry all rhymed and it feels more like prose that
you get now. You had to rhyme to make any poetry.
Joan: I think I was first interested in poetry through my mother who was very,
very keen on flowers and birds and such like. We used to walk a lot in the Lake
District, and it just became automatic that when we saw lovely flowers and trees
we'd write down a line that just came in our head.
275
Then sort of sort it out when we got home. So I always read the biographies of
Wordsworth and Louis Stevenson and those sort of portraits.
Winnie: I've always enjoyed reading it but the only time I did have a try was
when I joined Building Bridges and we had to make some verses up for a song,
which I managed the first one and that was all. As I say I'm not good at writing
at all. I wish I could write some verses. But I love to read poetry.
William Wordsworth is my favorite poet.

We all know that you can't make someone love you. There are no magic love
potions that you can use to make a person fall in love with you. However, did
you know that there are a lot of chemicals racing around your brain and body
when you're in love? It explains, for instance, racing heart, sweaty palms and
flushed skin.
Attraction, love and relationships are fueled by actual chemicals. Chemistry
does play an important part in how a relationship progresses. Chemicals
responsible for our behavior in love belong to the class of "neurochemicals",
that is, compounds forming largely in the brain. The brain, in its turn, passes
them to other parts of the body.
Nonverbal communication plays a big role in first attraction and some of this
communication may involve pheromones, a form of chemical communication.
Researchers have found that long-term relationships confer chemical benefits in
the form of stabilized production of oxytocin and serotonin.
Researchers are now using functional magnetic resonance imaging to watch
people's brains when...
