HOUSES ON WHEELS

A. Hundreds of San Franciscans lined the streets on Sunday with phones ready to snap
a photo of a unique procession slowly making its way through the city. “Ladies and
gentlemen, please stand on the sidewalk. There’s a house coming down the street,”
a police loudspeaker warned the crowds. The two-storey Victorian building, known as
the Englander House, had spent more than a century in the heart of San Francisco. But
for years it had stood vacant and was in need of extensive repair. As the city suffers from
a housing shortage, the authorities decided to build a block of flats in its place.

B. Instead of demolishing the beautiful building, a specialist team lifted it off its foundations,
put it on wheels, and pulled it to a new location six blocks away. To make sure everything
went as smoothly as possible, parking meters and traffic signs along the route had to be
removed for a day. The hardest part of the journey was when the massive building had to
go downhill. The six-bedroom house travelled slowly down the road with excited
observers following behind. It was the first time a Victorian house had been relocated in
50 years, but it was certainly not the first time ever.

C. Relocating houses is a little-known part of San Francisco’s history. As far back as 1886,
Mark Twain chronicled a similar move for the local newspaper. “Last night an old house
drifted down Sutter Street towards Montgomery,” he wrote. The scene depicted by Twain
may seem bizarre, but it was quite a common sight at the time. San Francisco’s houses,
built almost entirely of redwood, were light in comparison to brick houses. The 1900
edition of the city’s business directory listed nine companies offering to move a home to
a new address.

Strona 6 z 20 MJAP-R0-100

D. The city’s most famous move – and probably its biggest – happened in the 1970s, when
a redevelopment agency set out to clear an entire community and build new housing that
would attract wealthy residents. More than 4,000 families had to leave their homes and
roughly 2,500 Victorian homes were torn down. But 12 were saved from destruction. Due
to local residents’ anger over the Victorian buildings being demolished, the agency
agreed to auction the 12 houses and transport them out of the area. “It was like moving
a group of giant elephants,” said a witness to the event.

C. Relocating houses is a little-known part of San Francisco’s history. As far back as 1886,
Mark Twain chronicled a similar move for the local newspaper. “Last night an old house
drifted down Sutter Street towards Montgomery,” he wrote. The scene depicted by Twain
may seem bizarre, but it was quite a common sight at the time. San Francisco’s houses,
built almost entirely of redwood, were light in comparison to brick houses. The 1900
edition of the city’s business directory listed nine companies offering to move a home to
a new address.

D. The city’s most famous move – and probably its biggest – happened in the 1970s, when
a redevelopment agency set out to clear an entire community and build new housing that
would attract wealthy residents. More than 4,000 families had to leave their homes and
roughly 2,500 Victorian homes were torn down. But 12 were saved from destruction. Due
to local residents’ anger over the Victorian buildings being demolished, the agency
agreed to auction the 12 houses and transport them out of the area. “It was like moving
a group of giant elephants,” said a witness to the event.

Houses on wheels
A.
Hundreds of San Franciscans lined the streets on Sunday with phones ready to snap a photo of a unique procession slowly making its way through the city. “Ladies and gentlemen, please stand on the sidewalk. There’s a house coming down the street,” a police loudspeaker warned the crowds. The two-storey Victorian building, known as the Englander House, had spent more than a century in the heart of San Francisco. But for years it had stood vacant and was in need of extensive repair. As the city suffers from a housing shortage, the authorities decided to build a block of flats in its place.

B.
Instead of demolishing the beautiful building, a specialist team lifted it off its foundations, put it on wheels, and pulled it to a new location six blocks away. To make sure everything
went as smoothly as possible, parking meters and traffic signs along the route had to be removed for a day. The hardest part of the journey was when the massive building had to go downhill. The six-bedroom house travelled slowly down the road with excited observers following behind. It was the first time a Victorian house had been relocated in 50 years, but it was certainly not the first time ever.

Houses on wheels
A.
Hundreds of San Franciscans lined the streets on Sunday with phones ready to snap a photo of a unique procession slowly making its way through the city. “Ladies and gentlemen, please stand on the sidewalk. There’s a house coming down the street,” a police loudspeaker warned the crowds. The two-storey Victorian building, known as the Englander House, had spent more than a century in the heart of San Francisco. But for years it had stood vacant and was in need of extensive repair. As the city suffers from a housing shortage, the authorities decided to build a block of flats in its place.

B.
Instead of demolishing the beautiful building, a specialist team lifted it off its foundations, put it on wheels, and pulled it to a new location six blocks away. To make sure everything
went as smoothly as possible, parking meters and traffic signs along the route had to be removed for a day. The hardest part of the journey was when the massive building had to go downhill. The six-bedroom house travelled slowly down the road with excited observers following behind. It was the first time a Victorian house had been relocated in 50 years, but it was certainly not the first time ever.

POLAR BEAR TOWN

Churchill is a small town in Canada, situated on the shore of Hudson Bay and swept by
the Northern winds. 5.1. _____ There they hunt for seals after the bay freezes over and
the ice becomes strong enough to support their weight. Over the years, the bears’ seasonal
presence has earned Churchill the nickname of the Polar Bear Capital of the World.

For more than three decades, Dennis Compayre, a native of Churchill, has been a guide for
photographers and filmmakers who want to see the bears. He has become known as
“the bear man”, due to his work with the bears and his ability to relate to them. 5.2. _____
“There was always a fierce polar bear in the back of my mind, even when I played ball and
ran around the town with my friends,” Compayre explains.

Today, Churchill’s bear population is far bigger than its human population. Only about
900 permanent residents live in the town. 5.3. _____ It eventually closed in 1980. Back then,
there was no such thing as an organized tour group to see the bears. The only tourists who
visited Churchill were bird watchers and those who came up to see the whales.

Fortunately, polar bear-related businesses expanded year by year. Len Smith, a local
mechanic, built the first motorized vehicle that would allow groups to travel out safely to see
the bears. Although he was still scared of bears, Dennis agreed to serve as both driver and
guide. In the beginning, tourists would be lucky if they saw 10 bears, at the most. 5.4. _____
It was a unique opportunity to observe so many of them in one place.

Today, about 10,000 tourists descend upon Churchill annually during the five-to-six-week
“bear season”. But the reasons they come are not the same as when Dennis started. “Years
back, people came to Churchill excited to catch a glimpse of these majestic creatures,”
he says. “Everyone had such a good time observing polar bears. But things have changed.
5.5. _____ Sadly, now our promotional slogan is: ‘Come and see the bears before it’s too
late.’ ”

A. When Dennis was growing up, it was inhabited by 7,000 people and most of them were
associated in one way or another with the joint Canada – United States military fort
located five miles east of the town.

B. As the Hudson Bay population of bears is gradually shrinking, when tourists view them
nowadays, they start to fear for their well-being in the future.

C. The animals were a bit nervous as they’d never seen people before, but with time, they
became accustomed to regular visits. People on the tour could expect to see 20 or even
30 polar bears at a time.

D. This minor change in climate has considerably influenced the seasons in Churchill, and
with it, the animal migrations. For visitors, that means adjusting their travel plans

POLAR BEAR TOWN

Churchill is a small town in Canada, situated on the shore of Hudson Bay and swept by
the Northern winds. 5.1. _____ There they hunt for seals after the bay freezes over and
the ice becomes strong enough to support their weight. Over the years, the bears’ seasonal
presence has earned Churchill the nickname of the Polar Bear Capital of the World.

For more than three decades, Dennis Compayre, a native of Churchill, has been a guide for
photographers and filmmakers who want to see the bears. He has become known as
“the bear man”, due to his work with the bears and his ability to relate to them. 5.2. _____
“There was always a fierce polar bear in the back of my mind, even when I played ball and
ran around the town with my friends,” Compayre explains.

Today, Churchill’s bear population is far bigger than its human population. Only about
900 permanent residents live in the town. 5.3. _____ It eventually closed in 1980. Back then,
there was no such thing as an organized tour group to see the bears. The only tourists who
visited Churchill were bird watchers and those who came up to see the whales.

Fortunately, polar bear-related businesses expanded year by year. Len Smith, a local
mechanic, built the first motorized vehicle that would allow groups to travel out safely to see
the bears. Although he was still scared of bears, Dennis agreed to serve as both driver and
guide. In the beginning, tourists would be lucky if they saw 10 bears, at the most. 5.4. _____
It was a unique opportunity to observe so many of them in one place.

Today, about 10,000 tourists descend upon Churchill annually during the five-to-six-week
“bear season”. But the reasons they come are not the same as when Dennis started. “Years
back, people came to Churchill excited to catch a glimpse of these majestic creatures,”
he says. “Everyone had such a good time observing polar bears. But things have changed.
5.5. _____ Sadly, now our promotional slogan is: ‘Come and see the bears before it’s too
late.’ ”

A. When Dennis was growing up, it was inhabited by 7,000 people and most of them were
associated in one way or another with the joint Canada – United States military fort
located five miles east of the town.

B. As the Hudson Bay population of bears is gradually shrinking, when tourists view them
nowadays, they start to fear for their well-being in the future.

became accustomed to regular visits. People on the tour could expect to see 20 or even
