Treasure Hunts

Treasure Hunts are a kind of reading comprehension exercise, which normally consists of a list of links to different websites on a selected topic for you to visit and a set of questions for you to answer.
They are also called Scavenger Hunts and you will find plenty of them on the Internet. In this blog, you will find some, which I have specially designed for you (go to the Treasure hunts folder or to the reading section), but you can find some more at my old website. Here you have two links:

Nutrition Treasure Hunt

Natural Disasters' Treasure Hunt

Films that moved us (literally)

Would you like to know more about the country where The Lord of the Rings was shot?, if you've seen the film you will probably know that NZ has beautiful landscapes but what else do you know about this remote country?, do you know that it is the land of extreme sports?, that it is the birthplace of bungie-jumping? You don't know what bungie-jumping is?, then you really can't miss this site!
Browse through NZ's Official website and see if you can answer this questionnaire:
