Your students are becoming young adults and their knowledge of the world and their interests are developing. In Super English 4, we have chosen topics which we hope will help them to develop and expand their English while learning more about travelling, culture, sport, literature and the media. They will learn how to avoid phishing and keep their personal information safe. They should become competent in taking out travel insurance, booking hotel accommodation and understanding the hotel * rating system. They will look in more depth at the problems associated with climate change and

natural disasters. Many topics, including the History of the Cinema, the media, reading habits and astrology, could provide a good opportunity for project and research activities. We have also included information on some of the original member states of the European Union. We have again provided a range of activities for you to use in whichever way you choose – as a fun activity at the end of a lesson, as homework or not at all. In English there is a saying ‘Variety is the spice of life’ and this is what we try to provide in our Super English series – lots of listening, reading, writing and speaking practice but, most importantly, we hope to make learning English fun. Good luck with your teaching. Regards from, The Super English Team BACKGROUND TO THE COURSE. COURSEBOOK COMPONENTS “Super English 4” is the fourth in a series of interactive English coursebooks which is specially designed for pupils of the eighth form, who started learning English in the second form. This

coursebook ensures the fluent transition from the series of “Early School English“ coursebooks. It includes combination of the best traditional communicative methods with more recent approaches of interactive language learning strategies. “Super English 4” consists of a Student’s Book, an Activity Book with tests with graded tasks, a Teacher’s Book and a CD. The Student’s Book also contains English–Lithuanian, Lithuanian–English vocabularies with phonetic transcriptions and a table of irregular verbs. “Super English 4” consists of 32 units and offers extensive and wellintegrated practice of speaking, listening, reading and writing skills. 32 is the number of working weeks. It is recommended to have 4 English lessons a week One unit contains 4 lessons providing systematic preparation for all the skills required for successful communication in both spoken and written form. Units It’s Great to Know! following every eighth unit provide systematic review and

consolidation of language items and grammar structures provided earlier. The Activity Book follows the same structure as the Student’s Book and consists of 32 units. It gives practice in vocabulary, grammar, communication, as well as provides additional practice in writing. The Tests allow teachers to keep a thorough and regular check on 2 Source: http://www.doksinet their pupils’ progress. It consists of 16 tests that test pupils’ knowledge on grammar and vocabulary as well Teachers can be flexible and use the tasks from the Tests for extra practice, remedial work or as supplementary tasks for brighter pupils. The Teacher’s Book contains unit-by-unit lesson notes, a key to the Student’s Book and the Activity Book tasks and tapescripts. The CD contains all the recorded material from the Student’s Book and the Tests that are marked by a special sign. LANGUAGE ACTIVITIES The pupils’ communicative language competence is activated in the performance of various language

activities, involving reception, production, interaction or mediation (here mediating activities in English only). Each of these types of activity is possible in relation to texts in oral or written form, or both As processes, reception and production (oral and/or written) are obviously primary, since both are required for interaction. Receptive activities include silent reading and/or listening following the record Productive activities have an important function in oral presentations, written works and reports and particular social value is attached to them. In interaction at least two pupils participate in an oral and/or written exchange in which production and reception alternate and may in fact overlap in oral communication. High importance is generally attributed to interaction in language use and learning in view of its central role in communication. “Super English 3” contributes to development of elementary mediation skills – when learners do interpretation or paraphrase,

summary or record, which provides for a third party a (re)formulation of a context to which this third party does not have direct access. PRINCIPLES BEHIND THE COURSE “Super English 4” chooses up-to-date topics that appeal to young people. Heroes of one family representing different generations from a friendly community join the themes of the coursebook into one whole. Learning is based on communicative tasks. Many of them are designed so that pupils can work in pairs, simultaneously, in order to increase pupils’ talking time. For other kinds of activities, eg roleplays, discussions, questionnaires, and projects, pupils can work in groups which provide an opportunity for shy pupils to talk more and encourage cooperation. You will also find graded tasks that give full support for mixed level classes. Regular projects in the Student’s Book will enable both less successful and stronger pupils to use knowledge gained and to express themselves creatively. Cross-curricular themes

that you will find in the coursebook teach more English and encourage pupils to talk about a variety of topics in English. Pupils will find a lot of possibilities to apply and deepen their knowledge gained during History, Maths, Nature Studies, Arts and Music while working on up-to-date topics. They are also encouraged to learn autonomously by making use of the web addresses where they can find useful information. THE STRUCTURE OF THE UNITS Each unit is divided into four lessons. All the units start with Warm-up activities They serve as pre-reading or pre-listening tasks by encouraging pupils to discuss or predict what they know about the topic. Pupils are also asked to give opinions or express reasons for their arguments. Reading or listening and reading tasks where pre- and post-reading/listening tasks are introduced in a form of questions, true and false statements, discussions or other exercises which encourage pupils to reproduce information from the text and master the 3

Source: http://www.doksinet new vocabulary which is always introduced in the FindLearnUse. There are different types of activities for a text analysis such as reading or listening for gist, understanding vocabulary from the context and summarizing text in their own words. Grammar section It’s Great To Know! presents grammar structures in a clear, comprehensible way. First of all, this section presents short dialogues containing grammar, stimulating inductive recognition and only after that introducing a grammar rule itself in a form of informative tables with highlighted grammar structures. Pupils can expand their knowledge of grammar through a variety of useful tasks that are given after that. Listening and speaking tasks are focused on communication too Pupils are given the opportunity to develop competence in their listening and speaking skills through various exercises and activities. Writing activities usually marked by MEP are always based on examples Pupils can see grammar

and lexical structures in a description. After that they have to plan how to write their own compositions step by step. The Have Fun! at the end of each unit provide a range of entertaining activities introducing English culture through songs, poems, chants, jokes, tongue-twisters, jumbled stories, riddles that also serve for learning purposes. You will also find little reminders of important days each month The Activity Book can be done either in class or at home. It provides further practice of the language points introduced in the Student’s Book. HOW TO COLLECT WORKS IN MY ENGLISH PORTFOLIO – M.EP The novelty in “Super English 4” is My English Portfolio. MEP to some extent is designed according to European Language Portfolio which is meant to make it possible for pupils to document their progress towards pluralingual competence by recording learning experiences of all kinds. MEP will encourage pupils to include a regularly updated statement of their self-assessed

proficiency in the English language every eighth lesson when they will fill in self-assessment grids evaluating their communicative language competence in various language activities, such as reception, production, interaction or mediation. In “Super English 4” M.EP also includes a set of written and other works (usually short compositions) created by a pupil and collected together. Pupils are encouraged to create works following the clearly set structures and examples after covering a new theme. Presentation of pupils’ works, analysis, evaluation in groups and individually, as well as mediation is encouraged after that. Each revision unit has got self-evaluation grids which are made according to the requirements of the Common European Framework where pupils are able to self-evaluate their knowledge and compare their evaluation with the one of their teacher’s. You ORGANISATION OF THE LESSON The teacher’s choice of organisation of a lesson obviously depends on the preferred

teaching style, the individual classroom situation and the learning environment. These are only some general suggestions for teachers: • At the beginning of the lesson introduce a new topic and set the learning goals. Revise the material which pupils learned during the previous lesson. • Try to change teaching methods during your lessons. Motivate pupils Encourage them to give and receive information about the real world. • Before setting homework remember that your classes include pupils with different abilities. • At the end of the lesson encourage your pupils to draw conclusions, to sum up what they have learned and evaluate their own performance. 4 Source: http://www.doksinet REVISION LESSONS Units It’s Great to Know! are organised after every eighth unit and set a systematic review of language structures, vocabulary, and grammar based on the material learned. Pupils are encouraged to take part in a Project Work, consolidate the learned vocabulary in the Now I Can!

section, apply their general knowledge in the Quiz and revise their knowledge of grammar in the Auction Game. At the end of the unit Mini Conferences should be organised. The topic selected for the Project Work can be developed into a poster, a book, a newspaper, a booklet, a mind map or PowerPoint presentation. In Now I Can part pupils work in pairs and try to comment on the given questions. In this way they revise all the vocabulary and grammar structures they have learned. You may ask to make some notes on the items discussed and present some of them to the class later or ask pupils to change pairs and exchange the information they have received while working with the first partner. The Quiz helps to check pupils’ attentiveness while all the information is taken from previous units. This part is a multiple choice activity where pupils choose the correct answer either individually or in pairs. Discussion on the correct answer can be encouraged later The Auction Game can be led

either by a teacher or by pupils, either as a whole class or as a group activity. This task consists of correct and incorrect sentences which are read by the leader of the game. Pupils may use drawn or imaginary money to buy the offered sentences, but each of the pupils has to have the same amount of money for a start. After the leader of the game reads a sentence pupils can offer money for it, the owner is the pupil who offers the biggest amount of money. If pupils buy wrong sentences they lose the offered amount of their money The pupil who has the greatest number of correct sentences and the greatest amount of money at the end of the game is the winner. Your own variations on the rules of the game can be introduced The Mini Conference can be organised as an exhibition or cooperative work of different groups of pupils or even classes. Pupils’ parents can also be invited to watch children’s presentations Units Find out if you know it well come in every eighth unit in the Activity

Book. These units give children opportunities to revise vocabulary, grammar and writing skills as well. Each task is evaluated by points The evaluation tables at the end of the Activity Book help pupils to carry out self-evaluation. Assessment grids based on Illustrative descriptors peculiar for the A 2.2 level are prepared according to the requirements of Common European Framework. They can be found at the end of Find out if you know it well units Pupils can assess progress of their general language performance in various language activities, involving reception, production, interaction or mediation. Pupils get feedback about their success in the activities from their teacher as well DEVELOPMENT OF COMPREHENSIVE SKILLS Listening To improve pupils’ listening skills the coursebook contains different listening tasks. Some listening tasks prepare pupils for reading and propose additional information for them. Some activities are meant for gap filling, some are with the provided

tapescripts and others are open listening activities without provided tapescripts. Before listening, the tasks should be clearly explained and the necessary words if there are new ones in the listening task should be presented. In some cases pupils have to answer the questions, in other cases to copy the numbers from Student’s Book and write the missing information into their exercise books. In order to avoid misunderstanding look at the task with pupils and make sure if everyone knows what to do. It is recommended to play the CD twice as the first time pupils listen to get general understanding and then look for specific information. Ask pupils to close their books while you play the CD How to teach listening: 5 Source: http://www.doksinet a) Encourage pupils to do pre-listening tasks such as guessing, sharing ideas and prediction. Write guesses up on the board and then check them when pupils have finished listening; b) Encourage pupils to check their answers in pairs before

they present them to class and if there are some differences encourage the discussion; c) Discuss the tasks with pupils after they have performed them. Discuss how difficult and how interesting the tasks were so that pupils are aware of different types of listening and encourage them to interpret, summarise or re-formulate what their friends have discussed. Speaking “Super English 4” is based on the communicative teaching and learning so most of the activities are done in pairs, groups or with a whole class. Activities are intended to create definite situations where specific language structures must be used. Sometimes pupils have to discuss the information they have heard or read; sometimes they have to interview friends to make presentations; or they have the so called jigsaw activities when pupils having different information share it to make a final decision. Mediation is a new communicative activity where pupils after a discussion or interviewing their friends have to present

the information to the rest of the class or other group from their point of view. Each speaking activity should be demonstrated by the teacher and one of the pupils, then by two pupils for others to fulfil the task correctly and use the necessary language structures and appropriate vocabulary. Time limit should be given for each activity. As every speaking activity is significant and connected to the topic learned, the communication should proceed naturally. Encourage pupils to interpret, summarise or re-formulate what their friends have spoken. Thus, speaking activities in the SB can be divided into Interaction, production, mediation Reading “Super English 4” provides pupils with a wide variety of texts to read, such as brochures, tales, extracts from books, e-mail messages, a magazine page, a postcard, questionnaires, letters, descriptions, poems, advertisements, interviews and posters that vary in length too. There is also a wide-ranging selection of reading task types:

prediction, table completion, true/false, matching texts with pictures, reading for specific information, expressing personal reactions to the texts and discussions. Reading provides the context for new language and sometimes acts as a model for writing. Most important is that it evokes ideas and discussion All the texts are recorded on the CD. How to teach reading: a) Encourage pupils to do pre-reading activities such as guessing and prediction. Write guesses on the board and then check them when pupils have finished reading; b) Encourage pupils to guess the meaning of the words; c) Discuss the texts and tasks with pupils after they have performed them. Discuss how difficult and how interesting the texts were so that pupils are aware of different types of texts and encourage them to interpret, summarise or re-formulate what their friends have discussed. Writing There are units which have one major writing task M.EP in the Student’s Book The Activity Book also offers a variety of

guided writing activities. The writing tasks have two-fold purpose: either to consolidate the language or help pupils to write specific types of writing: e-mails, a description of a dream house, a place, a recipe, a description of a pet, a class friend, a description of a favourite book, a festival, an 6 Source: http://www.doksinet invitation, an advertisement, a poster, a story and a description of a favorite film. MEP writing is carefully staged. There are steps which should be carefully followed by pupils: brainstorming ideas (using questions, mind maps); paragraph planning; drafting (using useful vocabulary and linking words); checking (content, organisation, grammar, and spelling); audience awareness; self-assessment grid. How to teach writing: a) Make sure that pupils are following the steps of writing for M.EP b) Try out some written tasks in pairs/groups. c) Make assessment criteria clear. Tell your pupils what criteria you will be using to assess their writing, before they

start the task. d) Emphasize the importance of the planning stage. By this you will encourage your pupils to spend more time planning, as well as help them to develop note-writing skills. e) Make sure pupils check their writing. Remind them to improve the content or organisation of their writing They also need to find mistakes by themselves before they give their work to the teacher or their friend. f) Make sure that the writing tasks are read and feedback about their writing is given. Pupils should be encouraged to read their works aloud and react to each other’s work, i.e to interpret, summarise or reformulate what their friends have written. This helps pupils to see the communicative importance of writing. TEACHING NEW WORDS All new words are presented in a rubric FindLearnUse. It means that pupils will go through three main stages to memorize the new vocabulary. Find – new words are presented in a context which is familiar to pupils. Visual support is also very important to

help the pupils understand the meaning of new words. That is why a lot of illustrations (photos, pictures) are used in each unit to illustrate all the texts. When pupils are already familiar with the context of the text, they simply can guess the meaning of new words; teachers can also elicit new words by asking questions related to the content of the text; describe an object or an action; use actions, expressions, gestures and mime. Teachers can explain the words in simple English, ask pupils to use dictionaries or show flashcards or magazine pictures. These techniques are more motivating and memorable than giving pupils a list of words to learn. Learn – at this stage pupils practise and memorize new words of a particular unit by using them in short dialogues, descriptions and other activities which are designed so that pupils can discover new connections between words themselves. Use – pupils practise new words regularly, consolidate and recycle them in different contexts. There

are also a lot of different communicative, grammatical activities in the Activity Book which help to reinforce and memorize new words in an effective and motivating way. One of the suggestions to liven work with a new vocabulary and foster the learner’s analytical inclinations is the usage of the so called vocabulary cards. On one side of the card pupils write the new word in English (1) on the other they write the translation of this word in Lithuanian and the example sentence in English taken from the coursebook or from the dictionary (2). Pupils can draw simple pictures or glue a photo to illustrate the word Each pupil makes his own set of 7 Source: http://www.doksinet cards. The next lesson pupils in pairs take turns asking “What’s the English for “važinėtis dviračiu”?” If a partner A does not know/remember the word his partner B shows him the card with an example (side 2 on the card) what probably will help to recollect the word. This activity can be carried out

at the beginning of each lesson for a few minutes, putting the cards with the words that are learned well into one envelope and the words that still need to be learned into another. TEACHING GRAMMAR New grammar structures are presented in a rubric It’s Great To Know! This grammar section presents grammar structures in a clear and easy way. First of all, new grammar patterns are presented in a short dialogue which contains the grammar structures to be taught. This technique is called the inductive recognition. And only after that new grammar rules are introduced in a form of informative table with highlighted grammar structures. Then pupils can expand their knowledge of grammar while doing a variety of grammar exercises based on communicative approach. Grammar is often more memorable if pupils can discover new patterns themselves. When they elicit rules themselves, this gives them a sense of achievement WHAT IS HAVE FUN? These activities will help to develop the following features

and skills: pronunciation, listening, stress and intonation. Before singing a song you can ask your pupils to read it aloud and find the meaning of the song or you can simply ask to close the books and listen for gist. Also while listening to a poem ask pupils to repeat the lines in order to feel the stress and intonation. These activities raise pupils’ positive emotions and make learning English real fun. CULTURE CORNER A new feature to our series is called Culture Corner, and you’ll find one after every Revision Unit. These units are designed to familiarise your students with the unique cultures and histories of England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland, by providing them with interesting facts, stories, and discussion activities. The Culture Corner units are entirely optional – if you don’t have time for them during the semester, they can be used at the end, or even saved for the end of the school year. or dropped altogether They simply offer you one more way to tailor Super

English 4 to the needs and interests of your class. DEBATES This year our special focus is on debate which helps to improve communicative competence immensely. From its very beginning, debate has been inextricably intertwined with the concept of an open society. In ancient Athens, citizens gathered in forums to discuss and debate the most pressing issues of the day before casting their votes. Such debates were an integral part of the new form of government Athens was to bequeath to the world: democracy. Unlike totalitarian and other undemocratic regimes where a limited set of ideas are imposed as absolute truths, democratic societies depend upon the free and open exchange of ideas. Indeed, it may be said that true 8 Source: http://www.doksinet democracy cannot exist without debate. For democracy to function, the values that debate encourages reason, tolerance, the careful weighing of evidence - must be cherished and nurtured But even within societies that restrict open discussion,

debate can teach young people that no person or government possesses the ultimate truth. And just as Socrates spurred his listeners to examine their assumptions 2,500 years ago, students should be encouraged to question, to listen to each other, and to explore even the most volatile subjects openly and in the spirit of tolerance and cooperation. What are debates? Many people often answer: „an argument“. The dictionary defines debate as a formal discussion of a particular problem, subject in which people express different opinions. The idea behind debate is that there are two sides to every issue. In a debate the two sides are known as the Affirmative (or Government) and the Negative (or Opposition). The two sides of the debate have different jobs arising from their position with respect to the resolution, issue or topic. The Affirmative side supports the resolution. The Negative opposes or clashes with the Affirmative Since the Affirmative supports the resolution they are in favour

of the change. The Negative wants to convince the judges that the Affirmative arguments should be rejected. Formal debates, as a means of education, were introduced at the end of the 19th century, when the first debate competitions were organised in the universities on the East Coast of the USA. In 1960, the series of public televised debates between John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon made this activity very popular and numerous debate clubs and organisations appeared. There is diversity of debate styles, but they all have something in common – the approach of a theme from two diametrically opposed perspectives. The theme of the debate represents only a pretext of practising communication abilities in the public space, of critical thinking and logical argument, structured and efficient – and not an attempt to assess the value of truth of one of the two positions expressed during the debate. At international level, the debate activity is extremely appreciated, being considered one of

the most efficient methods of non-formal education. Debate is a formal contest of argumentation between two teams or individuals. But more broadly, and more importantly, debate is an essential tool for developing and maintaining democracy and open societies. More than a mere verbal or performance skill, debate embodies the ideals of reasoned argument, tolerance for divergent points of view, and rigorous self-examination. Debate is, above all, a way for those who hold opposing views to discuss controversial issues without descending to insult, emotional appeals, or personal bias. A key trademark of debate is that it rarely ends in agreement, but rather, allows for a robust analysis of the question at hand. Perhaps this is what French philosopher Joseph Joubert meant when he said: “It is better to debate a question without settling it, than to settle a question without debating it.” How to debate? At the secondary school level debaters follow the Karl Popper debate format, which

places students in two teams of three members. The first speakers of both teams present their position for 6 minutes, the second and the third speak for 5 minutes. Junior speakers may deliver shorter speeches (5 and 4 minutes). Teams are presented with a “resolution” such as “Charity is the greatest value”, “Economic development should be valued above protection of the environment” or “Human genetic engineering is immoral.” The team affirming the resolution speaks first The opposing team then must refute the arguments offered by the affirming team and offer arguments rejecting the resolution. Both sides are given the opportunity to present their positions and to directly question the opposing team. Neutral judges - usually parents or teachers – evaluate the persuasiveness of the arguments and offer constructive feedback on such 9 Source: http://www.doksinet elements as faulty logic, insufficient evidence, and arguments debaters may have overlooked. Debate teams

are judged strictly on the merits of their arguments. While debating the students should avoid being rude or impolite. They should respect their opponents Debate should be a spirited clash of issues and wits. It should never be a clash of personalities 10 Source: http://www.doksinet UNIT 1 TRAVELLER’S QUIZ Student’s Book Ex. 4 1. It’s Stonehenge on Salisbury Plain in England 2. Stonehenge was built 5000 years ago 3. Many myths have spread about the origin of these stones and their use, that it was an ancient observatory; a Neolithic burial ground; a landing pad for alien spacecraft; a place for sun worship or part of a huge astronomic calendar. 4. The stones are arranged to line up with the rising of the sun in the summer solstice and the setting sun in the winter solstice. 5. It has changed a little because many years have passed Only about half of the original monument remains today. Some of the stones have sunk into the ground, while others have been taken away for

building or to repair farm tracks. 6. No, it isn’t There have been many ideas 7. In the 11th century, it was suggested that it had been created by the wizard Merlin using stones transported from Ireland. In the 18th century, people thought that it had been built by the Druids, but that was soon proved wrong as their culture did not begin to grow until about 300 BC. It was probably designed and built by Britain’s own native tribes. Ex. 5 1. F – It is on Salisbury Plain in England 2. F – The word “henge” means “to hang”, so Stonehenge means “Hanging Stones” 3.

I really like my friend Jennifer and we have a lot in common We met when our family moved house and we were both of a similar age. If I have a problem, she’ll drop everything to come and help but she’s got one trait that drives me mad. She is completely unreliable! The number of times we have arranged to go somewhere or to do something together and she doesn’t appear. Every time, I say, “That’s it! I’m having nothing more to do with her.” But I usually change my mind I can’t stay angry with her for long She’s got more good points than the bad ones. 2. When we went to Spain on holiday last year, my friend and I met a couple of guys on the beach They were staying in the same apartment b as us. We had a great time swimming and playing tennis;

we even hired bikes one day and cycled miles. In the evening, we went to a nearby disco and met up with a group of girls. It made the holiday much more fun We exchanged email addresses and promised to be in touch and perhaps meet up again next year. I wonder if we will 3. I’m still in touch with my best friend from school, surprising after ten years She’s one of those people who keep in touch with everyone. She can still look at an old school photo and name everyone in the picture I can’t even remember half of them. She moved to England with her family but email makes it so easy to keep in touch. I don’t see her very often, about once a year; perhaps that’s why we’re still friends Have Fun Quiz Your mates ask to borrow money from you.

Ex. 4 Presenter: Today on ‘Healthy Living’ we will be talking about eating habits and I

am happy to welcome the Minister for Health Mrs Diette. A recent survey says that the Couch Potato lifestyle has overtaken smoking as the most important cause of illness in the EU countries. Why do you think that is? Mrs Diette Well, a Couch Potato is a person who doesn’t like physical activity and prefers spending his or her time sitting down – usually to watch TV. I think the remote control was probably invented for the Couch Potato. Presenter: Are you saying that the problem is only caused by inactivity then? Mrs Diette No, being a Couch Potato doesn’t just affect how fit you are, but your eating habits too. Presenter: So, what is their diet? What do they eat then? Mrs Diette In a word – convenience! Minimal preparation and clean-up – to minimise the time they spend away from the sofa. For example – fast food, takeaways, microwave meals, snacks and soft drinks. Presenter: Surely, you aren’t saying that all these foods are bad for you? Mrs Diette No .

it’s all in the preparation, but most of them have a lot of fat, calories, salt and sugar and don’t have vegetables and energy giving nutrients. You fill up on ‘empty’ calories which leave you feeling blown up and sleepy. We all need to eat a balanced diet Presenter: Thank you for coming in. Tomorrow morning we will be discussing – what makes a balanced diet? Health problems are caused by smoking, little physical activity (inactivity), eating habits (for example – fast food, takeaways, microwave meals, snacks and soft drinks). Ex. 5 1.

Ex. 10 Curry, Spice and all Things Nice What do we mean by ethnic food? It is food from countries other than our own which have a different food culture to us. The term restaurant was first used in the 16th century but it wasn’t till 1765 that it began to be used in its present meaning? According to the Guinness book of records the oldest existing restaurant today is in Madrid, but the earliest recorded eating house is Ma Yung’s Bucket Chicken House in China where ‘dim sum’ were invented in 1153 AD. Dim sum are a wide choice of light dishes which may include meat, fish, vegetables, desserts and fruit and are served with Chinese tea until noon. Ethnic

restaurants in Britain started in the 20th century but the recipes and dishes themselves appeared in coffee houses and inns over one hundred years earlier. Indian food has a much longer history because of the influence of Indian seamen who jumped the ship in London to look for a new and better life. The first wave of Chinese immigrants arrived in Britain in the second half of the 19th century and soon opened their laundries and eating places. The late 50s saw the opening of the first Chinese take-away and soon most towns had a take-away together with the traditional British Fish & Chip shop. Today, we have the opportunity to taste food from many other different cultures: Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese, Mexican, Arabic and African.

Reporter: Well, let’s start with UK hotels. Travel Agent: OK! 1* indicates a simple, practical, and basic hotel. It should be clean but won’t have any extras in the room.

A 2* hotel should be well-presented and well-run while in a 3* you would also expect a good level of quality and comfort. Reporter: Right! What about the top hotels then? Travel Agent: Well, in a 4* you will expect an excellent standard in the whole hotel and in the restaurant. Rooms would have ensuite bath or shower with toiletries, TV, hairdryer, tea and coffee making facilities and perhaps a mini-bar. Reporter: And 5*? What else could there be? Travel Agent: Luxury! Everything a 4* offers but of a higher standard. Bathroom with bath, separate shower and top quality toiletries. TV with satellite channels, mini-bar, top-class restaurant and the best possible service. 20 Source: http://www.doksinet Reporter: Thank you, that should help our readers to decide where to stay.

Student’s Book Ex. 3 1. F; 2 T; 3 F; 4 F; 5 F; 6 T October 20th 1872 We arrived in Bombay two days early and

boarded a train to Calcutta. At eight o’clock the next morning, the train stopped in the middle of a large open area and the conductor of the train shouted through the carriages “All passengers get out here!” We looked at each other and then Phileas Fogg jumped off the train to find out what the problem was. He returned moments later and told us that there wasn’t any more railway line. We got off the train and asked the conductor why we had stopped. “The railway isn’t finished and you have to travel by elephant for fifty miles to Allahabad where there will be another train waiting.” “But I paid £2,000 for these tickets and the papers stated that the line was complete,” I replied angrily “The papers are mostly wrong,” was the reply, “and travellers know very well that is the situation.” October 21st 1972 During the elephant ride, we came across a procession, in which a young woman was being led to a holy place to be sacrificed the next day. We decided to

rescue her and followed the procession My assistant secretly hid under the funeral pyre, on which she was to be burned the next morning. During the ceremony, he rose from the pyre, scared off the priests and carried the young woman away. This part of the journey is proving quite upsetting.

We pitched the tent in a field of Lithuania with no-one else in sight. We built a campfire and cooked sausages and baked potatoes At night we lay and looked up at the stars. In the morning we swam in the stream instead of showering B: That was a bit basic! We booked into a super camp site with showers and toilets. There were shops, a cafe and a disco every night. There were lots of other people about and I made loads of friends 23 Source: http://www.doksinet A: The best part of camping is being out of your

comfort zone, then getting home tired and dirty and really appreciating a hot shower. We took our bikes and explored the area We saw a lot of storks in their nests. C: My mother hates camping but my dad persuaded her to go to France this year. The tents were already erected and we had proper beds. We had a fridge and camping stove with a grill and oven The swimming pool was fab and mum spent hours in the hot water tub. B: I read somewhere that‘s what they call ‘glamping’ = glamour + camping. My parents always fall out when they are putting the tent up and my job is to blow up the airbeds. C: Yeah, it was a bit too posh for me. I had to keep clean and, can you believe it, I even had to take my shoes off before going into the tent.

in the country and seeing storks nests on top of posts? Did you know that in Western culture storks are a symbol of childbirth? In Victorian times, parents were too embarrassed to talk about sex and babies. When children asked “Where did I come from?” They answered, “The stork brought you.” Perhaps this idea came from the fact that storks often build their nests on top of chimneys and the baby could enter the house that way. The image of a stork holding a sling in its beak with a baby wrapped in it is common folklore. The legend originated in Germany and the Netherlands where it is frequently found in children’s nursery stories. B One of the best things about camping is lying outside on a clear dark night and gazing up at the stars. There seem to be an enormous number of stars in the sky, but we can only see about 2,000 of them with the naked eye. Travellers over the ages have used them to navigate, particularly the North Star. To find it you must first locate the Plough,

then take a straight line from the two stars at the end of the spoon until you see a very bright star – this is Polaris – the north star. It is also the last star on the handle of the Little Bear Have you ever seen the Aurora Borealis? They are curtains of light which fold and move and vary in brightness. The strongest colours are red and green They are often bright enough to be seen with the naked eye, but you must go north to see them. Have Fun 24 Source: http://www.doksinet 1.

While I was reading I heard a scream in the doctor’s surgery, I have never heard anyone screaming so painfully. So I decided to leave but then suddenly the doctor came out and asked: “Are you waiting for an appointment?” I didn’t know what to say, but then suddenly my phone rang. I thought “saved by the ring” and

lied to the doctor:” Sorry I have to leave now I will come next time”, and ran quickly away. The doctor was standing and looking at me surprised, when his nurse asked him: “Have you heard the new advertisement of the film Scream? It’s really funny!” UNIT 7 HALLOWEEN Student’s Book Ex. 4 1.

Saints Day. Children in many countries dress up and carry lanterns made from hollowed out pumpkins, knock on doors and beg for treats. In Scotland and parts of northern England it is called ‘guising’ because of the disguise worn by children. Children only get a treat if they perform for the household – singing a song, telling a joke or reciting a poem. In America and Canada, it is called ‘Trick or Treat’and if no treat is given, they will play a trick on the householder. This can frighten older people Orange and black, the traditional Halloween colours, come from the orange of harvest and the black of a witch and her cat. 27 Source: http://www.doksinet Ex. 10 1.

EU COUNTRIES SINCE 1957 Student’s Book Ex. 3 Many attempts have been made to unite Europe over the centuries - think of the Roman Empire Charlemagne, Napoleon and others. It was only after the Second World War that European leaders looked seriously at the question of how to prevent future wars in Europe. The creation of the Council of Europe in 1949 was followed in 1951 by the Treaty of Paris whose members were France, Belgium, The Netherlands, Luxembourg and Italy. In 1957, France, the Federal Republic of Germany, Italy, Belgium, The Netherlands and Luxembourg (the Six) established the European Economic Community (the EEC or Common Market) and in 1973 they were joined by The UK, Denmark and Ireland. In 1987, the Single European Act came into force and the 1980s also saw Greece, Spain and Portugal joining. The EEC became the European Union (EU) in 1992 and three years later, Austria, Sweden and Finland joined bringing the membership to 15. On January 1st, 1999 the Euro was launched

in world money markets and it became the unit of currency in all member states except the UK, Sweden and Denmark. In 2004, ten more countries joined the EU: Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia; these were followed by Bulgaria and Romania in 2007. The current membership is now 27 with a total population of 499 million people and 23 official languages. 30 Source: http://www.doksinet Activity Book Literature corner 1 Ex. 2 A. because it had horns 5 B. exactly what I want 6 C. me a lot of questions 7 D. a thousand miles from any inhabited region 2 E. me a sheep, please 3 F. made a drawing 4 G. awakened at sunrise by a small voice 1 UNIT 9 SYMPHONY IN YELLOW Student’s Book Ex. 4 The word “yellow” is mentioned three times.

I love to see them slowly changing from green to gold to brown. The bad thing of this is that the trees then look bare and I know that winter is coming. The good thing about winter is that Christmas is coming and mum makes a big pot of hot, tasty soup to keep us warm. I don’t like winter because it’s cold and I have to wrap up warmly The snow looks lovely when it’s falling but it soon begins to melt and it’s easy to fall over on the ice. I love to see the blooms on the trees and flowers pushing through the ground.

Suddenly, everything becomes green and spring is here. Birds are singing and lambs are frolicking in the fields The bad thing of spring is that soon it will be time for exams and I have to study. The best thing about summer is that school is over for the year and we are on holiday! We can play outside and wear light clothes. I can’t think of a bad thing to summer but by the end we are becoming bored and ready to go back to school. There’s no difference in seasons for me, I don’t go outside. Who needs to when they’ve got a computer? I play games, listen to music, chat online and can see every season on screen whenever I want to. Ex. 10 Pros: 1. The colour of the leaves on the trees I love to see them slowly changing from green to gold to brown 2. The good thing about winter is that Christmas is coming and mum makes a big pot of hot, tasty soup to keep us warm. 3. I love to see the blooms on the trees and flowers pushing through the ground Suddenly, everything becomes green and

spring is here. Birds are singing and lambs are frolicking in the fields 4. The best thing about summer is that school is over for the year and we are on holiday! We can play outside and wear light clothes. Cons: 1. The bad thing of this is that the trees then look bare and I know that winter is coming 2. I don’t like winter because it’s cold and I have to wrap up warmly The snow looks lovely when it’s falling but it soon begins to melt and it’s easy to fall over on the ice. 3. The bad thing of spring is that soon it will be time for exams and I have to study 4. I can’t think of a bad thing to summer, but by the end we are becoming bored and ready to go back to school.

The situation was saved by a grammar teacher who happened to be passing by at the moment. “Your grammar! Watch your grammar!” he cried. And as if by magic the frightened man started to scream: “Help! Help! I will drown! I am drowning!” He was pulled out of the river right away. UNIT 10 33 Source: http://www.doksinet LETTER TO GREENPEACE Student’s Book Ex. 3 1. There are Solar power, Wind power, Hydro-electric power, Tidal and Wave power 2. The advantage of wind turbines is that they produce electricity in an environmentally

friendly way and they do not produce chemical or radioactive emissions. 3. Many people are against wind farms, because they ruin the landscape and make a noise 4.

Rasa A. bike Ann: How do you, Tom, get to school each day? My mum brings me by car. Tom:

Ann, it’s not healthy! I walk. It gives me exercise and cuts down on pollution What about you Romas? Romas: I cycle that’s good for me too; it’s faster than walking and also doesn’t pollute the environment. And you, Rasa? 34 Source: http://www.doksinet Rasa: I go by bus. I walk to the bus stop So get some exercise and the bus causes less damage than a car Ann: How do you work that out? A bus uses diesel and produces exhaus fumes the same as a car does. Rasa: Ah but you see Ann . if every person on the bus drove a car, there would be more cars on the road and more air pollution. Tom: There are two disadvantages with walking to school – I have to get up earlier than you and I breathe in the exhaust fumes while I’m walking. That’s not healthy Romas: I have similar problems with cycling – breathing polluted air and the danger of being knocked off my bike by drivers who are always in a hurry and don’t look out for cyclists. Rasa: The bus is often late and sometimes it

breaks down. Passengers cough and I breathe in their germs Ann: I seem to be the only person who gets to school without any breathing problems and I can stay in bed longer in the morning. I’m going to stick with my type of transport Bye, my mum’s waiting at the gate. Tom: Typical! Ann doesn’t care about anyone else but herself!

WHAT TO DO? Student’s Book Ex. 3 Janet: Have you decided what project to do on Climate Change yet? I’m going to look at the effect of melting icecaps on polar bears. Sandra: Well, my sister suggested I looked at acid rain but my dad advised me to do the one on air pollution and the effect that the bad quality air had on athletes in Beijing. That seems a very important topic at the moment. Janet: What do you know about that, then? Sandra: During the games it was suggested that cars with odd-numbered licence plates and those with even numbers came into the city on alternative days. By reducing the number of vehicles each day there was less pollution.

Factories also had to cut down on production for the duration of the games. Janet: Did you know that the US and Britain gave their athletes high-tech masks to wear? Sandra: Yes, the Chinese wear masks a lot of the time and they try to convince tourists that it is fog not smog that’s the problem. It’s worrying to think of such a large country on our planet where the air isn’t fit to breathe. What about your polar bears? Janet: When polar bears are mating and bringing up their cubs, they need to live for months on the fat under their fur. The ice is melting at least three weeks earlier than usual so they have less hunting time. The bears eat seals and no ice means no seals! Sandra: Why is the ice melting earlier? Janet: Various reasons. It’s been reported that there’s been an increase in the earth’s surface temperature since the late 19th century, the world’s oceans have been warming up over the last 50 years and the sea level’s been rising fast. Sandra: How can the

bears be saved then? Janet: Experts have recommended declaring them a vulnerable and endangered species. If we don’t do anything, we are being advised that two thirds of polar bears will be lost in the 37 Source: http://www.doksinet next 50 years and they’ll all have disappeared in 100 years.

Student B: OK, but now we have to prepare a list of solutions for next week. How are you going to save the Polar bears? Student A: Well, the important solution is to cut down on greenhouses gases but that’s not going to be easy. Lots of organisations and scientists are asking for polar bears to be listed as an endangered species so that will help. Student B: I saw an advert in a World Wild Life magazine asking readers

to adopt a polar bear. Student A: How does that work then? I can’t see my mum letting me keep a bear in the house even a baby one. Student B: Don’t be stupid! You dont really adopt it. You pay £3 per month to the WWF and they send you three newsletters a year telling you how your donations are helping. Student A: That’s a good idea; you could give it as a Christmas present. Some people think that the only way to stop polar bears from dying out is to breed them in zoos. Think what it would be like to be shut up in a small space after being free in the whole Arctic? They’d quickly get bored. I suppose another solution would be to move them to the Antarctic, that’s melting more slowly. Student B: Enough about bears, I need some solutions to air pollution. I wished I’d picked another topic. Student A: You’ve already talked about wearing masks and reducing cars in the city centre so you’ll have to think of something else. Student B: I have thought of some more. Planting

more trees, cleaner factories, reducing air travel, using organic fertilisers and . Student A: And, of course if you’d stop smoking that would help! 38 Source: http://www.doksinet Activity Book Ex. 1 2.

Each sign is a symbol of some kind of living thing except Libra. Libra is the only non-living in the zodiac The signs go round the chart anti-clockwise; starting with Aries (at the spring equinox); Cancer (at the summer solstice); Libra (the autumn equinox); Capricorn (the winter solstice); and ending with Pisces.

She came from an obscure village in Eastern France and started being famous when she was little more than a child, and she did so as an uneducated peasant. She insisted that she had visions from God to recover her homeland from English domination and

she led the French army to several important victories during the Hundred Years War. In the end she was capture by the English and, after being tried for heresy, she was burned at the stake. The war continued for twenty-two years after her death. Many major writers and composers have created works about her and three French naval vessels have been named after her. Belgium The Kingdom of Belgium can be divided into two regions – the Dutch/ Flemish speaking area of Flanders (59% of the population) and the French speaking region of Wallonia (31%). The two main ethnic groups are the Flemings, who speak Flemish, and the French speakers (Walloons); there is also a small group of German speakers. Belgium was a founder member of the European Union and hosts its headquarters in Brussels. Many major International organisations, including NATO, are also based in the capital. Belgium, The Netherlands and Luxembourg are known as the Low Countries. 49 Source: http://www.doksinet

Sailing isn’t just for people who live near the sea. There are ocean going yachts and yachts designed for sailing on lakes and rivers. If you want to sail on your own, you will need to go on a course where you will be able to learn to sail properly and safely. You have to take lots of exams if you want to get

UNIT 18 THE HISTORY OF THE MARATHON Student’s Book Ex. 3 1. The brave soldier lived in the small town of Marathon in Greece 2. He was chosen by his victorious, commanding officer to bring the unexpected news of a surprise 3. The distance that the Greek soldier had run was 25 miles 4. The soldier collapsed and died 5. He didn’t follow any guidelines to warming up properly In those days they probably hadn’t heard about warming-up their muscles gradually before exercising 6. The first competitive marathon race was held in 1896 There was once a brave, young soldier, who lived in the small town of Marathon in Greece. Pheidippides, the unfortunate Greek soldier, was a fantastic, champion runner in the ancient Olympics. The legend says that he was chosen by his victorious commanding officer to bring the unexpected news of a surprise, Greek victory over invading Persians, to the company headquarters in Athens. Exhausted from the fierce battle and the long, tiring 25-mile run from

Marathon to Athens, when he arrived he shouted out the short message, “Rejoice, we conquer!" Then promptly collapsed and died. Obviously, he didn’t follow any guidelines to warming up properly. But it was 490 BC! And in those days they probably hadnt heard about warming-up their muscles gradually before exercising. So they just started running. Skip forward a couple of thousand years to the first competitive marathon race, held at the 1896 Olympics in Athens (incidentally, the Greeks won that one as well – and no one died.) Ex. 7 1.

Her parents were farmers and she spent most of her time looking after the animals and working in the fields. One evening, when work was finished for the day, she heard people talking about Valentine’s Day on the radio and she began to dream about a tall, handsome, young man falling in love with her and sending her

a card. The next day when she was milking the cows, Anna said out loud, “ If only someone would send me a Valentine Card”. She sounded very sad Later in the day when they were grazing on the lush pasture the cows discussed what they could do to make Anna happy. A robin a bird with a red breast overheard them and said, “ I would like to help because Anna is so kind and feeds all the wild birds in winter. Perhaps I could fly to the shop in the village and bring back a card.” So off he flew The cards were on display in a stand outside the shop so it was easy for him to pick one up in his beak and he quickly returned to the farm. That evening the animals had a meeting. Who could write the card? “Not us,” said the cows and the horse, “our hooves are too big to hold a pen.” “I think I could hold one in my claws,” said the cockerel tossing his head, “ if I knew what to write?” “That’s easy,” grunted the sheepdog,, “write ANNA on the envelope and inside the

card.” So the cockerel did just that. “If I take it into the house,” said the black cat, “I can leave it on the mat.” The next morning, Anna opened the card and shouted with joy and excitement. But who could the card be from? When she went to milk the cows she was singing and the cows looked at each other and mooed. She skipped around the farm yard as she spread the grain for the chickens and they clucked happily. The robin redbreast twittered on the branch of the willow tree by the pond and then spread its wings and flew away. Anna knew that if she waited patiently, one day her admirer would come. 1.

He wrote a poem to honour the engagement of Richard II of England to Anne of Bohemia Richard was 13 years old and she was 14. Shakespeare also mentions it in Hamlet in 1600 However, St Valentine’s Day only really became popular in the 1840s when the first cards were sold made from paper lace. By the 20th century, flowers, mostly red roses, and

chocolates were given to loved ones as well as cards. Usually, the cards are anonymous (unsigned) Not every country celebrates St Valentine’s Day and some have different names and traditions for the 14th of February. In Sweden, it is called ‘All Hearts day’; In Turkey, they call it ‘Sweethearts’ Day’; In Slovenia, people think that St Valentine makes plants and flowers grow and it has only recently been celebrated as a day of love. 1.

Let’s look first at cheating in school Is copying material from the internet and presenting it as one’s own work OK? What about having notes hidden up your sleeve? Is it wrong to hide your mobile in your pocket and look at the notes you’ve put on it? Is it being inventive or dishonest? B. Sometimes it’s the students who cheat but do teachers cheat? Surely not! What if a teacher opens the exam papers

beforehand so that students can revise the questions – is that cheating or just being helpful? Perhaps the teacher is marking the exam paper and returns it to the student to correct some mistakes. 60 Source: http://www.doksinet C. You hate sports but your dad says it’s good for you So you type a letter to say that you can’t run about because you have asthma and you forge his signature – is that wrong? Most of us think of forgery as forging money or false papers and you can go to prison for that. D. Bullying is a problem in most schools but not everyone thinks it’s wrong, some people think it’s just fun. What do you think? Why are some teens so cruel and hateful? Have you ever been bullied? E.

Ex. 9 Student A Our teacher showed us the exam papers beforehand, so that we could study and revise for those questions. I don’t think that’s cheating! She’s just preparing us for the exam. Student B I regularly copy stuff from the Internet and pretend it’s my own work. That’s not cheating, it’s ‘being ahead of the game’! Student C I wanted to go to a rock concert instead of school and my dad wouldn’t let me. So I typed a letter and forged his signature. That’s being inventive, not dishonest

Student D 61 Source: http://www.doksinet I was bullied in my last school.

He had fixed a small camera and a tiny machine in the cash machine above the keypad. The camera recorded everyone’s pin number and the info was sent to a receiver (another machine) in the car. The next day, when the young woman went to get some more money from the machine, she discovered that there was no money left in her account. It had all been stolen The motto

of the story is: always cover the keypad with your hand when entering the pin number. No, the woman was not careful. Ex. 11 1.

The history of Rome covers 2,800 years as the city grew from a small Italian village to the centre of a huge civilisation that dominated much of Europe for centuries. The language Latin (now a

‘dead’ language) was derived from the surrounding region called Latium. The early inhabitants of Rome were, in fact, called Latins. They were farmers and traders and became rich and successful. Because it was a rich city, the inhabitants of surrounding areas were jealous and Rome invested in an army to protect itself. It was so successful, that by 300BC, the Romans controlled most of the Italian peninsular. Early Rome was ruled by kings but after the seventh monarch, the Romans decided to rule themselves. They became a Republic and had a council known as the Senate The Senate appointed a Consul who ruled for one year. There were four classes of people in Rome. The lowest were ‘slaves’ who were owned by other people Then there were the ‘plebeians’ who were free people but without any influence. Next highest were the equestrians’ or ‘knights’; they were rich as they had to have a horse to ride and they were called to fight for Rome. The highest class were the nobles,

they were called ‘patricians’ and had all the real power 66 Source: http://www.doksinet Rome’s most famous citizen was Julius Caesar. He was a politician and general who conquered the Gauls in France. In 49 BC, he crossed the river Rubicon, and conquered Rome itself which he ruled as a dictator He was eventually murdered in the senate in Rome. However, he was so famous that the month of July was named after him. Shakespeare wrote a play about his murder The Roman Republic lasted almost 500 years. Ex. 4 Romulus and Remus were twin brothers who were abandoned by their parents as babies. They were put into a basket which was placed in the river Tiber where it eventually ran aground. They were found by a female wolf who nursed them until they were discovered by a shepherd who then brought them up. When they grew up, they decided to found a city where the wolf had found them. Tragically, they quarrelled over where the site should be and Remus was killed by his brother. As Romulus

was now the sole founder of the city, he named it after himself – Rome. The date given for the founding of Rome is 753 BC. Rome is so old that it is known as the Eternal city Ex. 5 Nowadays, Germany, as the largest economic and most inhabited nation in Europe, is a key member of the European Union. But that wasn’t always the case Although Germany didn’t become a nation until 1871, its history dates back to the era of the Germanic tribes. After the Thirty Years War, Prussia became the largest and most powerful of the German states During the Napoleonic wars, when France broke up the Holy Roman Empire, the German territories were reorganised and reduced in number to thirty-nine. 1871 saw the declaration of the German Empire The First World War saw Germany ending up reduced in size rather than becoming even more powerful. After the Second World War, it was divided in two: West Germany (The Federal Republic of Germany) and East Germany (The German Democratic Republic). The capital,

Berlin, was divided by a ‘wall’ In 1989, as the result of a peaceful revolution, the Berlin Wall fell down and in 1990 East Germany was reunited with West Germany.

The books they couldn’t put down included: The Harry Potter Series; the Alex Rider series; The Lord of the Rings; A Series of Unfortunate Events; The saga of Darren Shan; a Child Called ‘it’. While their parents might like them to read Wuthering Heights or Paradise Lost, they much preferred to secretly read Bridget Jones’s Diary; glamour model Jordan’s autobiography – Being Jordan and Girls in Love by Jacqueline Wilson. One of the questions asked was ‘What makes young people want to read’. • • • • • 43% said they would read something recommended by a friend. Only 10% would read a book that

their teacher said they must read, while 25% were keen to read a book about a film they had enjoyed. 23% liked to read about a person or hobby that they were interested in. 70% of those asked, would prefer to watch TV or a DVD than read a book. Girls demonstrated more enthusiasm in reading books, while the boys were not such enthusiastic readers. Some famous authors were asked to suggest books that they thought young people should have read by the time they left school. Andrew Motion, the poet laureate, chose Paradise Lost, Ulysses and Don Quixote. Among J K Rowling’s suggestions were Wuthering Heights and To Kill a Mocking Bird. Novelist Ben Okri’s advice was: ‘Read the books your parents hate!’ Ex. 4 1. a journal – a diary; 2 a review – survey; 3 a story – saga; 4 father and a mother – parents; 5 a life story – autobiography; 6. a mate – a friend; 7 free time activities – hobbies; well-known – famous Ex. 8 1. research D. serious study of a subject in order

My mates and I don’t read nearly as many books as we should, but we spend a lot of time on the Internet reading instant messagers, Myspace, Facebook and lots of other stuff on the net. I think the internet has replaced books for teens in the 21st century Interviewer: If you had to research something, would you go to the library? B:

No, I would use the internet. Reading on screen is easier than reading a book and it’s quicker to go online than to walk to the library. One of the disadvantages of libraries is the opening hours – the Internet is available 24/7. Interviewer: What sort of books would you be tempted to read, if you decided to take up reading as a hobby? C: I like non-fiction books; things about science amaze me and I love books about animals and the way the world works. Interviewer: Don’t you have compulsory texts that you must read for your exams? D: Of course, but you can easily download reviews from the web. Who wants to read classics nowadays! Have Fun Swan swam over the sea, swim, swan, swim! Swan swam back again, well swum, swan!

morning, today is International Missing Children’s Day and my first guest is John McCann the uncle of Madeleine. Can you tell us a bit about the aim of today? John McCann: We want to support parents whose children have gone missing and to help them to remain hopeful. The charity used to be called ‘Missing People’ and we have chosen today to launch its new name and logo. We are urging people to wear yellow ribbons to show their support I’m sure that most people can understand the horrible feeling in your stomach and the turmoil and mental upset which makes it hard to think clearly. J.V: I have a listener on the phone with a question. Hello, Anne Anne: Hi! How can a charity based in the UK help to find children like Maddie who have disappeared abroad? John McCann: We are now in touch with other charities and websites all over Europe. It’s vital that information about a missing child is spread as quickly as possible. Today - its short for International Missing Childrens Day

and it is being organised by the European Federation of Missing and Sexually Exploited Children. J.V: I have an email from a listener. ‘There have been 1,200 reports of missing young people in the last year. Surely, parents need to take better care of their children’ John McCann: Parents certainly need to be made more aware of the dangers but there are many cases of children being stolen from under their parent’s nose.

Online phishing (pronounced like the word fishing) is a way to trick computer users into giving away personal or financial information through an email message or website. A common online phishing scam starts with an email message that looks as if it is from an official source such as a bank, credit card company or well-known online store. In the email message, recipients are usually asked to provide personal information such as their bank account details or a password The email usually explains that the sender (your bank for example) is updating their records and wants to check that your details haven’t changed. Beware! This information will then be used for an identity card. Activity Book 78 Source: http://www.doksinet Ex. 1 1. E; 2 D; 3 A; 4 B; 5 F; 6 C

About 300 pupils spread into the streets breaking windows and terrifying families. Police were called to stop the lunchtime incident.

National Union of Teachers Teachers 5. have banned unpaid supervision and there were only three on duty to supervise pupils during breaks. Mr Dare – who said he was "upset" by the incident – will be making a full report to the Devon Education Authority. A spokesman for the authority said: “We have yet 6 to establish how big the

damage is caused by teens.” Pupils go on rampage Police were called to a high school in Devon yesterday to put down a disturbance involving at least 60 pupils. Officers went to the 1700-pupil mixed school in Biddeford after people living near the school reported a 7. “developing riot” The trouble, described by Devon County Council as "a disturbance rather than a riot," occurred at lunchtime when only Mr John Dare, 8. the headmaster, and two members of staff were available to look after pupils because of the teachers pay disagreement. Several windows were broken by children throwing bottles and stones. Police 9 restored order after about 35 minutes and normal lessons were held in the afternoon Mr Dare said last night that only 50 pupils were really involved. He thought that no more than ten children were responsible for causing damage. Mr Owen, Devons Director of Education, has called for a full report on the disturbance. Biddeford school is divided into two sections

Yesterdays disturbance seems to have occurred because the children were angry and bored because they weren’t allowed in one part of the building.

I do that all year so I’d like to earn some more money and do something different. Sandra: I’m all fixed. My aunt works full time so she’s going to pay me to look after my two cousins Mark: I wouldn’t fancy that. Isn’t there a law about how old you must be before you can babysit? What age are your cousins? Sandra: Josh is ten and Vicky’s eight. Because they’re relations, I’m old

enough to be left in charge Anyway, they’ll be at an activity centre every morning so I won’t need to get up early. Ken: I saw an advert for fruit picking in the local paper. You need to be prepared to work in all weather, but I love being outdoors and it’ll be really healthy. It’s piecework, which means they pay you for the amount of fruit you pick so, if I work hard, I’ll earn lots of money. Mark: That sounds great. Do they need any more people? How do you get there and what time do you have to start work? Ken: Yes, they need more people and a free bus leaves the centre at 7am. It would be more fun if we both did it but could you get up that early? We have to write a letter of application, I’ll get the address. Janet: Hi, did I hear you talking about summer jobs?

I have to make sure that each house gets the correct paper otherwise people become very angry. Sometimes there are magazines to deliver as well and that makes the bag very heavy It is a good job in the summer but not much fun on a cold,

dark, wet winter morning. 2. I only have my job in the summer holidays It’s great fun and I always make lots of new friends We get free transport to and from work on a small bus. They supply water to drink and we take a pack lunch It’s very tempting to eat some of what we pick but as we get paid for the amount we pick, it is stupid to eat too much. It can be hard work but it helps to keep you fit and I can work every day of the week if I want to 3. My job doesn’t pay very well but the people who come in and order usually leave some money on the table when they pay their bill. That’s called a tip and I can keep it If you are really polite and friendly and bring their order very quickly, you usually get a bigger tip. I get free meals and the food is really good In fact it’s too good because I’ve put on weight. In term time, I only work at the weekend but I can work as many hours as I want in the holidays. 4. I would like to look after children when I leave school Don’t

think I want to be a teacher but I would quite like to be a nanny. I’m going to get some practice this summer looking after my aunt’s children It should be quite an easy job. In the winter I sometimes look after a neighbour’s kids when they go out in the evening. That’s easy money because they’re usually in bed when I arrive I can do my homework or watch TV and get paid at the same time.

CULTURE CORNER 4 LUXEMBOURG AND THE NETHERLANDS: COUNTRIES OF THE EUROPEAN UNION Student’s Book Ex. 3 Luxembourg Although the recorded history of Luxembourg dates back to Roman times, its real history began in 963 when Siegfried, Count of the Ardennes, had a castle built on the site of the present day capital. After the Eighty Years War, Luxembourg became part of the Southern Netherlands. Luxembourg remained neutral during both World Wars, but was still occupied by German troops. There are three languages in use.

Luxembourgish is the most commonly spoken language and is taught in schools; street names are in French which is the official language of the parliament; and the newspapers are mainly in German. Despite being at the heart of the EU, the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg is a very private community and about half of the population are foreigners. The Netherlands or Holland The use of the name Holland first appeared in 866 and covered the area around Haarlem, but by 1064 it was being used for the name of the whole country. Although often referred to as the Netherlands, Holland is in fact only a part of the Netherlands or ‘Low Lying Countries’. Much of the country has always been marsh and bog and the inhabitants started to drain the land so that they could farm it. This caused other problems, particularly flooding and dykes were built to take the water away In the 16th century they began a big project to reclaim land and this continued for the next 400 years. When we think of Holland, we

picture tulips, windmills, clogs, cheese and traditional costumes. The most popular way of travelling in Holland is the bicycle. Though the Hague is the actual seat of government, Amsterdam is the official capital of the Netherlands. Ex. 6 86 Source: http://www.doksinet Rembrandt Rembrandt was one of the greatest artist of all time. He lived and painted in Holland He was born in 1606 and died in 1669. Rembrandt painted over a 100 self-portraits, probably more than any other famous artist He also painted many scenes from the Bible. He used his family and relatives as models in many of his works. Vincent van Gogh Vincent van Gogh was born in Holland on the 30th of March 1853. As a young boy he showed no particular interest in drawing or painting. Often he was a lonely child and a difficult one too It wasn’t until 1880, at the age of twenty-seven, that he decided to become an artist. Once he had made the decision to become a painter, he worked enormously hard, usually spending ten

or twelve hours a day painting.

We should be really worried about climate change and what we are doing to slow it down To save the environment, people could use Solar and Wind Power more. Because such power is environmentally friendly and using it people do not produce chemical or radioactive emissions. Water power can’t be forgotten either 90 Source: http://www.doksinet as it was used before engines were invented. Hydro-electric power is pollution free and safe We should also be very concerned about the future of transport. More

and more people are buying cars and some families now have one for each family member. As they are being run with gas they cause noise and air pollution, which will soon make people wear masks. So we have to think about smog as it is a big problem It’s worrying to think that our planet can become a place where the air isn’t fit to breathe. It’s been reported that there’s been an increase in the earth’s surface temperature since the late 19th century, the world’s oceans have been warming up over the last 50 years and the sea level’s been rising fast.

Test 12 Units 17–24 TAPESCRIPT 1. 1 I think that everyone knows that the first Olympic Games were held in Greece and since then the games have been a symbol of peace. The first record was in 776 BC and they were held there until AD 393 Although interest in reviving them was shown in 1833, the first modern games took place in Greece in 1870. This interest increased when the ruins of ancient

Olympia were uncovered in the mid-nineteenth century. The I.OC was founded in 1894 and the first Games organised by us was held in Athens in 1896 There were only 250 athletes and only nine disciplines – Athletics; Cycling, Fencing, Gymnastics, Shooting, Swimming,Tennis, Weightlifting and Wrestling. 2. The legend says that a Greek soldier, who was a fantastic runner, was chosen by his victorious commanding officer to bring the unexpected news of a surprise, Greek victory over invading Persians, to the company headquarters in Athens. Exhausted from the fierce battle and the long, tiring 25-mile run from Marathon to Athens, when he arrived he shouted out the short message, “Rejoice, we conquer!” Then promptly collapsed and died. 3. Independence Day has great meaning for Lithuanian citizens On the 16th February they celebrate the sighning of their Independence Declaration in the year 1918.

Since then Lithuania has become a democratic state and is now a Member of the European Union. 4.

PC games are created by one or more game developers, often with other specialists, and either published independently or through a third party publisher. They may then be distributed on physical media such as DVDs and CDs, as Internet-downloadable shareware, or through online delivery services such as Direct2Drive and Steam. PC games often require specialised hardware in the users computer in order to play, such as a specific generation of graphics processing unit or an Internet connection for online play, although these system requirements vary. 5.
