Hogwarts School Hogwarts School, from the Harry Potter books, is very unusual – it’s only for magic students! It’s a very big school in Scotland. There are many rooms, and there’s also a dark, scary forest and a lake in the school gardens. The school has got bedrooms as well as classrooms and laboratories, because the students sleep at the school. Students have got classes from nine o’clock to five o’clock, but students haven’t got lessons on Friday afternoons. Students eat breakfast, lunch and dinner at the school. Older students can visit a local village at the weekend, where there are shops and restaurants. There aren’t any computers, so students don’t study ICT. Instead, the students have got lessons on the history of magic, and the science of magical plants, as well as ordinary subjects like maths and English. Students have got difficult exams every year. Studying magic isn’t easy!

ENJOYING THE THRILL Most people want a peaceful job, with no danger, but not Simon Addlington. Simon is a stuntman for films. He does the dangerous things that the main actors don’t want to do. So he’s jumped off a moving train, and he’s driven a car into a deep river. He’s also run into burning buildings. ‘I don’t really get scared,’ Simon says. ‘I feel very excited when I’m going to do something dangerous. But I’m also quite careful. I think about each job carefully, and I only take risks if it’s necessary.’ Simon’s had a lot of injuries in his job. He’s broken both legs, and he’s sprained his shoulder five times. He’s also burnt his arms twice. But he doesn’t mind the injuries, and he loves his job. Does Simon want a peaceful job?

A SIMPLE LIFE The Amish people in America live in a very traditional way. They produce their own food. They don’t use modern machines. They haven’t got cars. They travel by horse and cart instead. The children haven’t got a lot of modern things, like mp3 players or mobile phones. Sam, an Amish boy, doesn’t mind living in a simple way. ‘I love helping with the animals,’ he says, ‘but I’m interested in studying ICT. I really want a laptop. A lot of boys my age have got one. I want to play computer games like them.’ Claire, who is fourteen years old, says she hardly ever feels bored. ‘I meet friends or I help my mum at home,’ she says. ‘I don’t go shopping because my mum makes all my clothes. I don’t wear make-up because it’s not allowed. I’m usually happy with my life, but sometimes I really want to watch TV!’

ALEXANDRA BURKE Alexandra Burke was born in London in 1988, and started singing when she was only five. She first appeared on stage in Bahrain at the age of nine. She sang with her mother, who was also a professional singer. Alexandra enjoyed singing on stage and she wanted to become a singer. She left school when she was sixteen and started a professional career in music. She worked very hard, and she also performed in some big concerts to raise money for charity. She first entered the TV talent competition The X Factor in 2005. She didn’t win because the judges thought that she was too young to be a successful pop star. But they said that she was a great singer, so Alexandra entered the competition again in 2008. This time she won! Her first song, ‘Hallelujah’, was number one in Britain for three weeks. She became famous!

THE HUMAN SPIDERMAN Alain Robert is one of the world’s greatest daredevils. He climbs tall buildings around the world. Some people call him ‘the human spiderman’! Alain was born in France in 1962, and he started climbing buildings when he was twelve. His family lived on the 8th floor of a block of flats. One day Alain forgot his keys, so he climbed up the outside of the building and went in through the window. It’s a dangerous hobby. He had a bad fall while he was climbing in Taipei, and hurt his arm quite seriously. In 2005 while he was climbing in Texas, the American police arrested him. So why does he do it? It’s partly because he likes the feeling of danger. But he also uses his climbs to make people think about world problems. In 2008, for example, while climbing, he wore a Tshirt with a message about global warming. What does Alain Robert climb? tall buildings 1 How old was Alain when he started climbing? ___________________________________________

Writing MORE AND MORE ... Will there be food for everyone in the future? In the year 1800 the world’s population was about one billion. In 1950 there were about two and a half billion people, and by 2008 there were nearly seven billion. 134 million babies are born each year, and some predict that nearly a third of those born today will live to be 100. Scientists think that by 2040 there will be nine billion people on the planet. The population will grow fastest in Latin America, Asia, and especially Africa, but it will go down in Europe. A lot of experts are worried, because they think there won’t be sufficient food in the future, and that wealthier countries will become mean and aggressive when protecting their resources. But a few scientists are more positive. They think that people will have greater intelligence and knowledge in the future, and we will learn practical ways to grow more food.

ENJOYING THE THRILL Most people want a peaceful job, with no danger, but not Simon Addlington. Simon is a film stuntman. He does all the dangerous things that the main actors don’t want to do! He’s jumped off a moving train, and he’s driven a car into a deep river. He’s also run into burning buildings and swum in the sea with sharks. ‘I don’t really get scared,’ Simon says. ‘I just feel very excited when I’m going to do something dangerous. I’m also careful. I only take risks if they’re necessary.’ Simon has had a lot of injuries in his job. He’s broken one of his legs, and he’s sprained his shoulder five times. He’s also burnt his arms twice, when he ran into a burning building for a James Bond film. But he doesn’t mind the injuries, because he loves his job. ‘It’s more interesting than working in an office!’ he says.

__________________________________________

A SIMPLE LIFE The Amish people in America live in a very simple, traditional way. They keep animals and produce their own food. They don’t use modern machines, and they travel by horse and cart instead of by car. The children haven’t got many modern things, like mp3 players or mobile phones. So, what is life like in an Amish community? Sam, an Amish boy, says, ‘I quite like helping my dad on the farm, but sometimes I look at my friends with their laptops and I feel jealous. I want one, too! I’m interested in playing computer games and surfing the internet like everyone else.’ Claire, who is fourteen, is contented with her life. ‘I enjoy helping with the jobs around the house, especially making cakes and bread,’ she says, ‘and I love feeding the animals! My mum makes all my clothes, so I don’t go shopping. That’s OK – my mum is really good! Some people think it’s strange because I don’t watch TV, but I don’t mind. Some of the programmes my friends watch sound quite boring!’

It smells delicious! D We love our underground home because it’s very good for the environment. The house is never cold because it’s underground, so we don’t need any heating. We’ve also got solar panels. They use energy from the sun to heat water, and that works very well. We’ve always got hot water for a shower. E Of course, not everything is perfect. The house is quite dark because there are only three windows at the front of the house. We’ve got a lot of lamps!

ALEXANDRA BURKE Alexandra Burke was born in London in 1988, and she started singing when she was only five. She first appeared on stage in Bahrain at the age of nine. She sang with her mother, who was also a professional singer. Alexandra enjoyed singing on stage and she wanted to become a singer. She left school when she was sixteen and started a professional career in music. She worked very hard, and she also performed in some big concerts to raise money for charity. She first entered the TV talent competition The X Factor in 2005. She didn’t win because the judges thought that she was too young to be a successful pop star. But they said that she was a great singer, so Alexandra entered the competition again in 2008. This time she won! Her first song, ‘Hallelujah’, was number one in Britain for three weeks, and more than a million people bought it. Once again, The X Factor had found a star, and, like Will Young and Leona Lewis, who were also winners of this competition, Alexandra Burke became famous!

THE HUMAN SPIDERMAN Alain Robert is one of the world’s greatest daredevils. He climbs tall buildings around the world using just his hands and feet. That’s why some people call him ‘the human spiderman’! Alain was born in France in 1962, and he started climbing buildings when he was twelve. His family lived on the eighth floor of a tall building, and one day Alain forgot his keys, so he climbed up the outside of a building and went in through the window. This is a dangerous hobby. Alain fell off a building while he was climbing in Taipei, and he injured his arm quite seriously. He didn’t stop though. Falling isn’t the only danger he faces. In 2005, while he was climbing a building in Texas, the American police arrested him. So why does he do it? It’s partly because he enjoys the feeling of danger. But he also uses his climbs to make people think about world problems. In 2008, for example, he climbed a 46-floor hotel in Hong Kong while wearing a Tshirt with a message about global warming.

A MEDICAL PRODIGY

Writing

Askrit Jaswall was born in India in 1993. It was soon clear to his parents that he was much more intelligent than other children in the district. He said his first words when he was only ten months old and could read adult books at the age of five. His favourite interest was medicine, and he wanted to be a doctor. When he was six, doctors in the local hospital said he could watch them. He spent many hours there, and he also read a lot of books about medicine. He soon knew a lot about the subject!

Askrit went to university in India at the age of eleven to study medicine. He wants to finish his studies in India and then continue his studies at Harvard University in America. He wants to find new medicines to make people well. When he was younger, he saw people dying in the streets in India. They couldn’t go to hospital because they were poor and didn’t have any money. Askrit wants to help people like these in future.

MORE AND MORE ... Will there be food for everyone in the future? In 1800 the world’s population was about one billion, but this increased very quickly in the next century. In 1950 there were about two and a half billion people, over six billion by 2000, and by 2008 there were nearly a billion more. 134 million babies are born each year, and some predict that nearly a third of those born today will live to be 100, and another quarter of those over 105. Scientists think that by 2040 there will be nine billion people on the planet. The population will grow fastest in Latin America, Asia, and especially Africa, but it will decrease in Europe. A lot of experts are worried, because they think there won’t be sufficient food in the future, and that wealthier countries will become mean and aggressive when protecting their resources. But a few scientists are more positive. They think that people will have greater intelligence and knowledge in the future, and we will learn practical ways to grow more food. But we mustn’t relax – we must act now!

ENJOYING THE THRILL Most people want a safe, peaceful job, but not Simon Addlington. Simon is a stuntman for films. He does all the dangerous things that the main actors don’t want to do. So he’s jumped off a moving train, and he’s driven a car into a deep river. He’s also run into burning buildings and swum in the sea with sharks. But Simon doesn’t feel scared like normal people. ‘I don’t really get scared,’ he says. ‘I just get very excited when I’m going to do something dangerous. I love that feeling. But I’m also quite careful. I think about each job carefully before I do it, and I don’t take unnecessary risks.’ Simon’s had a lot of injuries. He’s broken one of his legs, and he’s sprained his shoulder four times. He’s also burnt his arms twice. This first happened when he ran into a burning building for a James Bond film – and again when they made the sequel! But he doesn’t mind the injuries because he loves his job. ‘It’s much more interesting than working in an office!’ he says.

THE TOP OF THE WORLD Last week I arrived home after a trip to Mount Blanc – one of the top ten highest mountains in Europe. There were fifteen people in our group, all school friends. First we spent a few days walking in the valleys, and then we started climbing up. It was very hard work. After six hours, two of my friends became very tired, so they climbed back down to our camp. On the second day, while we were walking across some snow, one girl nearly fell off the side of the mountain – that was very scary! We didn’t go right to the top of the mountain, but it was an amazing trip. Next spring I want to go there again and get further up the mountain – and ski back down!

They didn’t want to carry on, so they climbed back down to our camp at the bottom. On the second day, while we were walking across some snow, one girl nearly fell off the side of the mountain – that was a very frightening moment! Luckily, she was fine.

J

Hi, are you new here?

S

Yes, my name’s Sophie. I moved here with my family in April. Oh, right. I’m Jack.

S

Hi.

J

What subjects do you study at school?

S

Well, I like learning languages and I enjoy science, but I don’t like maths. What about you?

J

Well, I like maths and PE – that’s my favourite subject.

S

Hmm, I’m not really into sport, but I like watching tennis on TV. I love tennis, and football. Where did you live before?

S

I lived in London before, but I like living here. It’s cleaner and more friendly. And London was very noisy. But the shops were better in London, I think.

J

So, sunglasses and umbrella?

A Yes, well this is England after all!

My name’s Carla and I’ve got two very different homes. I live in my house in Manchester most of the time, but I also spend a lot of time working in New York, so I’ve got a flat there. My house in Manchester is big and more than a hundred years old. There’s a big kitchen, and a huge dining room with a large table and six chairs – my friends often come for dinner. In New York, I’ve got a small modern flat. The kitchen’s tiny – really small, and there’s just a microwave where I can cook quick meals. There’s also a desk, with a lamp on, where I work, and there are lots of pictures of my family on the walls. Which do I prefer? Well, I love my New York home, because it’s quiet and it’s just for me, but I think I prefer my home in Manchester.

A Well, I don’t remember everything, but I remember the teacher read us a very funny story. I enjoyed that. And I remember feeling very happy when it was time to go home! How about you? M Well, I went to a very small school, in a village. I think there were only about a hundred children in the whole school. I remember some children were quite upset on the first day, but I wasn’t – I thought it was all really exciting. And at the end of the day the teacher gave me a sweet.
