Task 1. Read the article and fill in the missing sentences (A-F). One sentence is extra.

APE ART

Works of art by apes have been displayed in art galleries around the world since the 1950’s. It’s not a joke. Apes are natural artists and ape art is becoming big business. Ape art did not use to have any form. In fact, paintings by chimps were nothing more than paint thrown onto a canvas, and it was impossible to tell what the pictures were meant to show. (1). They can even use sign language to give their paintings titles.

Koko and Michael live in California and they have been painters since they were very young. (2). At first she was shy, and did not want to show anyone her pictures, but now Koko’s and Michael’s art work is displayed in exhibitions and they have many fans. Unfortunately, not all of their paintings survive, as they often eat their work as soon as it is finished. Sadly, there is bad news for these recently discovered artists. (3). There are only 600 gorillas and a few thousand lowland gorillas left in the world. The work of Koko and Michael is being used to help raise money to save the world’s gorillas.

Some people might laugh and say that these paintings are not art, but who really knows what art is? (4). Although you cannot buy Koko’s and Michael’s original paintings, many people are prepared to pay a great deal of money to buy high quality copies of the originals. (5). Not only will you receive a colourful picture or T-shirt, but you will also be helping to save one of the world’s most intelligent species. Is there a better way to spend money?

A. Koko learnt to draw when she was just three years old.

B. The truth is, there has been a great deal of commercial interest in gorilla art in all its forms.

C. They even buy T-shirts printed with their pictures.

D. No one wants to buy gorilla paintings.
E. Gorillas are an endangered species.
F. Today, however some gorillas, like Michael and Koko, are able to paint quite realistic pictures of the objects around them.
