Reading 9 Read the text. Then write true or false. (10 marks) Jake Marsh won a TV talent show when he was thirteen years old. He wrote and sang a song and the judges loved it. He beat ten other children who were all older than him. During the series he became famous and everyone recognized his face when they saw him in newspapers or on TV. After the series finished, he and the other participants did a tour of the UK. Jake signed a contract with a record company and released his first album a few months later. The new series of the talent show started at the same time and the viewers were more interested in the new participants than in Jake. His album wasn’t successful and soon everyone forgot about him. But Jake is a special boy – and not just because he has a special voice. He decided to use his experience to help others. Today he is sixteen and he works as a volunteer for a charity. He works with younger children. These children all have problems because at some point in their lives something bad happened to them. Jake helps them understand that life isn’t always as you plan it, but that it can always be exciting and fun. At the moment he’s working with Phoebe and they’re becoming good friends. Phoebe didn’t speak for two years and now she phones and texts Jake every day.

DEE’S DIARY Yesterday, I went to a primary school reunion. It was the first time I’d seen my old classmates for five years – since I left primary school. The others get together quite often, but my family moved to another area when I was eleven, so I hadn’t seen them for a long time. Poppy Symonds was there. I didn’t recognize her at first. Her hair had changed a lot. She used to have short, dark hair and now it’s long and blonde. Her personality hadn’t changed. She always used to joke and was friendly with everyone. She used to be good friends with Jamie, but they’d argued and he’d made new friends. She’d got quite upset at first, but now she’s got a different best friend called Ben.

How to win friends and influence people is the grandfather of self-help books. (2) … It was an overnight sensation. This bestselling book advises the reader on how to make friends. The author concentrates on the importance of communication skills. (3) … He gives lots of examples to support this argument. The author believes that you should always be respectful, and you should make people feel important. (4) … For example, if you want to make someone agree with you, you should let them think that they had the original idea. Most self-help books encourage their readers to concentrate on being positive and not have negative thoughts. Many people often think this is the key to happiness. (5) … Recent research has shown that this approach doesn’t always work. A group of people who wanted to feel more optimistic about themselves actually felt worse after they had written a list of positive sentences. (6) … When they were allowed to write a list of both positive and negative things, they felt better.

Jane Pip Jane Pip

Hi, Pip. How did the quiz show go? Well, I came second to last, so at least I wasn’t the worst! Were the questions hard? Yes. After the quiz show host had asked me for my name, he asked me what the capital city of Egypt was. Couldn’t you remember? No! I’d even been to Cairo the year before on holiday – no, actually, I think it was the year before that. Then he asked how many miles there were in eight kilometres. That sounds a bit complicated. No, it was easy. I know that five miles equal eight kilometres. Finally, he asked me when the Olympics had last been held in Greece. 2004? That’s right. But I said 2002! A week after they filmed the quiz, I got a letter from the guy who’d won the competition. His letter told me to phone him. When I phoned, he said that it had really been a team competition and that he was going to share his prize money with the other five contestants! How kind! I know. I feel a bit guilty because I didn’t win. No, you haven’t done anything wrong. You’d hurt his feelings if you didn’t accept it. Yes, I suppose you’re right.

DEE’S DIARY Yesterday, I went to a primary school reunion. It was the first time I’d seen my old classmates since I left. The others get together quite often. My family moved to another area when I was eleven, so I hadn’t seen them for a long time. But I chat to some of them on the internet now and again. I didn’t recognize Maisie Symonds at first. Her hair had changed a lot. She used to have short, dark hair and now it’s long and blonde. Her personality hadn’t changed. She always used to joke and was friendly with everyone. She used to be good friends with Jamie, but later he got a girlfriend and he didn’t want to spend time with her any more. She’d got quite upset at first, but now she’s got a new best friend, called Bella. I hadn’t expected to see Simon Stratford. His mother had got an important job in Paris and his family moved there. He had made a lot of new friends in Paris because he started his new secondary school at the same time as the other children. He used to be shy at primary school, but we talked a lot last night. I talked to Megan Jones, too. I couldn’t remember her, but when she talked about some of the things we’d done I suddenly realized she’d been my best friend for a year! We’re meeting later today.

I didn’t want to send you an email, but I need to tell you something before you go to Paris tomorrow, and I thought this was better than a text. We haven’t been getting on very well for a few months now. I know we’ve got a lot in common, but I’m not in love with you. I enjoy spending time with you and I think you’re a brilliant friend, but I don’t want to be your girlfriend any more. I hope you aren’t furious with me. I’ve been trying to tell you since we had that argument at Sue’s party last month, but I’ve never found the right moment. Two days ago you said you wanted to make up, but I think it’s too late for me. I’m really sorry. We’ve had a good time, but we’re still young and I don’t want a serious relationship at the moment. I want to go to university next year and I want to be free to meet new people and make new friends. I hope you can understand this. Have a good holiday and see you in class in September. I bet you’ll be brilliant at French! Julie PS Could you reply to this email, so I know you’ve received it? You don’t need to write a message.

DOGS HELPING PEOPLE! 1 People who have dogs look after them, buy them food, take them to the vet’s when they’re sick and take them out for walks. But what do dogs do for us? The answer is surprisingly long. 2 Recent research has discovered that dogs can help people who have had heart problems. The research followed the progress of a group of people who had suffered heart attacks. A year later, the patients who had dogs were healthier than the patients who didn’t have dogs. 3 Another study did an experiment about stress. It found that dog owners recover faster from a personal crisis than people who don’t have dogs. In fact, dogs can bring you even more happiness than relatives and friends!

HOLIDAYS FOR EVERYONE Since the explosion of mass market package holidays in the 60s, more and more people enjoy travelling abroad. In recent years the industry has become much more varied and today everyone can find the perfect holiday deal. A Rural tourism holiday In addition to enjoying the peace and quiet of the countryside, you’ll probably save money while you try the local specialties and eat in the local restaurants. But here’s a warning: this isn’t a good choice if you’re on a diet! B Beach holiday This is not my favourite kind of holiday, but perhaps the most relaxing. If you have a frenetic lifestyle at home, you might want a simple holiday where all the days follow the same routine: sun, sand and sea. C Adventure holiday If, like me, you hate being ordinary, you’ll love an adventure holiday. You’ll test yourself and your physical fitness up mountains, on rivers or in jungles, and no day will be the same. Don’t forget to bring your camera! D City break These are perfect for people who love culture. You can visit galleries and museums and enjoy a great night life. Prices are often expensive, so try visiting markets instead of eating in restaurants. E Winter sports holiday I’m not a fan of winter, but for many of you a sports holiday in the snow is a perfect break. You’ll get fit and lose weight – and have fun! You’ll love the gear, too. These holidays are all about style.

Today is my last day at school. In two months’ time I’ll be starting university in Leeds. I’m going to find somewhere to live next month, hopefully near the university, although I don’t mind being near the centre. I’m not keen on places near the sports stadium – it’s very noisy! Will anyone want to share a flat with me? There are lots of adverts for flatmates on the university website. I’ve written to a few but I haven’t had any replies yet. I’ve promised myself a new ‘look’ for my new life. Most of my clothes were bought in the sales, so they aren’t very fashionable. I’m going to study media, and I’ll be taught by some famous journalists, so I want to look modern and stylish. I’m going to wear lipstick and nail varnish, and I’m going to change my hair. It’ll be dyed red, or maybe black! I can’t stand being blonde anymore. I might even get a tattoo – I’m not sure. I like some of Lady Gaga’s tattoos, but I don’t know who they were designed by. Most people won’t know me at university, so this is a great time to be different. Rosa is going to be on my course, and she also wants a new style. She wants me to call her ‘Roz’, too, which might feel strange. Luckily, I like my name! Love from Helen 8 Read Helen’s email again and choose the correct answers.

Reading HAY-ON-WYE Hay-on-Wye is a small town in Wales, just on the border with England. It’s surrounded by beautiful countryside, and close to the Black Mountains. Today Hay is known as the ‘Town of books’. The man who created this identity for the town and set up the first bookshop there is Richard Booth. He opened a second-hand bookshop in the old fire station in 1961. He bought a lot of books from abroad. He thought that if you sell books from many different countries, customers will come from many different countries – and he was right. Today there are more than thirty bookshops in Hay-on-Wye. Richard Booth received a lot of publicity in 1977. He announced that Hay was an independent nation and that he was the king. He said that his horse was the Prime Minister! He now lives in Germany, but his shop is still in Hay. In the late 1970s Hay became the world’s first official Book Town and ten years later, in 1988, the first Hay Literary Festival was held. At first, it took place in different town buildings, including the primary school, but now it is celebrated just outside the town, because it’s too big! It’s very successful. Today about 80,000 visitors attend every year in June, and some of the best known literary figures and celebrities give talks. In 2001 the former American President Bill Clinton was the star speaker.

How did the quiz show go? Well, I came second to last, so at least I wasn’t the worst! Were the questions hard? Definitely. After the quiz show host had asked me for my name, he asked me what the capital city of Egypt was. I said Marrakesh, but I immediately knew it was wrong! I was so embarrassed. Couldn’t you remember? No! I’d even been to Cairo the year before – no, actually, I think it was the year before that. I went to Morocco this year, so I think I got confused! Then he asked how many miles there were in eight kilometres. That sounds difficult. Not at all. I know that five miles equal eight kilometres. Finally, he asked me when the Olympics had last been held in Greece. 2004 ... or 2006? You were right the first time! I said 2002. I’m not into sport! Anyway, it was disappointing, but not the end of the world. A week later, I got an email from Emir, the guy who’d won. He told me to phone him. When I did, he said that he wanted to share his prize money with the other five contestants! At first I didn’t believe him, but now I think it’s true. How kind! I know. I feel really bad about accepting it, though, because he was the one who won! No, you might hurt his feelings by refusing. You don’t want that, do you? You’re right, I don’t.

Hi Imre, I’m looking forward to moving away from home next month and starting university in Leeds! Right now I’m looking for somewhere to live, hopefully near the university, although I don’t mind being near the centre. I’m not keen on places near the sports stadium – it’s very noisy! Will anyone want to share a flat with me? There are lots of adverts for flatmates on the university website. I’ve written to a few people but I haven’t had any replies yet. Maybe there’s somewhere else I could look? I’ve promised myself a new ‘look’ for my new life. Most of my clothes were bought in the sales, so they aren’t very fashionable. I’m going to study media, and I’ll be taught by some famous journalists, so I want to look modern and stylish. I’m going to wear lipstick and nail varnish, and I’m going to change my hair. It’ll be dyed red, or maybe black! I can’t stand being blonde anymore. I might even get a tattoo – I’m not sure. I like some of Pink’s tattoos, but I don’t know who they were designed by. I’m not keen on her piercings, though. Most people won’t know me at university, so this is a great time to be different. Rosa is going to be on my course, and she also wants a new style. She wants me to call her ‘Roz’, too, which might feel strange. Luckily, I like my name. Hopefully one day you’ll be able to read it in a magazine! Well, if I get a good enough degree, that is. Rosa’s always been better than me at studying! Love, Helen x

How did the quiz show go? Well, I came second to last, so at least I wasn’t the worst! My best friend came third. The questions were really hard. After the quiz show host had asked me for my name, he asked me what the capital city of Egypt was. I said Marrakesh, but I immediately

Jane Pip

knew it was wrong! I’d revised all the capital cities last month. I felt so embarrassed. Couldn’t you remember? No! I’d even been to Cairo the year before – no, actually, I think it was the year before that. I went to Morocco this summer, so I think I got confused! Then he asked how many miles there were in eight kilometres. No idea! That sounds difficult. Not at all. I knew that five miles equal eight kilometres. Finally, he asked me when the Olympics had last been held in Greece. Well, I know it was in China in 2008. So, I’m guessing it was in 2004 ... or 2006? You were right the first time! I said 2002. I’m not into sport! Anyway, it was disappointing, but not the end of the world. I don’t think I’ll do it again! A week later, I got an email from Emir, the guy who’d won. He told me to phone him. When I did, he said that he wanted to share his prize money with the other contestants! At first I didn’t believe him, but now I think it’s true. How kind! I know. He’s really the opposite of arrogant. I feel really bad about accepting it, though, because he was the one who won! No, you might hurt his feelings by refusing. You don’t want that, do you?

DOLLY THE SHEEP

4 ‘When did you last see her?’ ___

Scientists cloned a sheep in 1996. They gave her the name of Dolly. Her birth caused a sensation around the world because it was the first time that scientists had cloned an animal from another adult animal. Her death in 2003 opened the discussion about the moral problems of cloning.

5 ‘What do you think of this?’ ___

In addition, scientists wanted to do more research to discover if Dolly had died early because she was a clone. Normally sheep live for about eleven or twelve years, but Dolly was only six when she died. Did that mean that she was already six when she was born? Interestingly, the sheep the scientists used to clone Dolly was six, so perhaps Dolly had the same genetic age? Dolly had four healthy lambs, but scientists discovered that Dolly suffered from arthritis in her legs. A virus caused her main illness. However, we don’t know for certain whether cloning always creates naturally unhealthy animals. There are scientists who want to experiment more in order to learn the truth. Cloning may become a way to save animals which are in danger of extinction. It might also be possible to re-create animals which no longer exist. So don’t be surprised when you see a dinosaur the next time that you go to the zoo!

THE BIRTH OF DEMOCRACY The ‘Golden Age’ of Ancient Greece was between 500 and 400BC. The concept of democracy was born during that time. In Greek the word ‘democracy’ means ‘popular government’. The citizens of Athens were encouraged to discuss the important topics of their day and then vote on them. However, these ‘elections’ were rather different from the elections we have today. Firstly, ministers and politicians were elected by a kind of lottery. Secondly, only men who were citizens of Athens could vote. Women weren’t allowed to vote. At the beginning of the twentieth century in the UK and many other countries, women still couldn’t vote. In 1905 a British politician was talking at a political meeting and two women started shouting, ‘Will the Liberal Government give votes to women?’ The women refused to be quiet and they were sent to prison. British society was shocked and the campaign started to attract public attention. In 1918 the Government agreed to let women who were over the age of thirty vote. Ten years later the law was changed and both genders were treated equally. Men and women over the age of twentyone could vote, unless they were in prison at the time of the election. Since then the age has been reduced by three years.

WHAT I’M DOING AND WHY Next spring my friend, John, and I will be eighteen. We take our final exams in the summer and then we’re starting our adventure. After we’ve gone sightseeing in France for a week, we’ve volunteered to take part in a charity project in Africa. The project aims to improve people’s lives for the future. Instead of giving people food, we’re going to help them to grow their own. We’re also going to build a well for water. Some of us are going to provide English classes, too. John and I won’t receive any salaries. Luckily, the project has already paid for our flights, or we couldn’t have even thought about going! However, we want to make a big donation to the charity. I wouldn’t mind getting a Saturday job for the next six months, but that would mean that I’d have to give up playing in the school basketball team. I’m much less of a basketball addict now than I used to be, but my team captain says that she doesn’t want me to leave! You don’t have to volunteer to make a difference! Improving lives in Africa is very easy. If you click on the link that I’ve attached, you’ll be taken to a page where you can enter your bank details. We’ll send emails and photos to everyone who helps us, and bring back presents for those who give the most. I might even have a small party to say a big thank you! Keira

WHAT I’M DOING AND WHY Next spring my friend, John, and I will be eighteen. We take our final exams in the summer and then we’re starting our adventure. After we’ve gone sightseeing in France, we’re coming back here for a week to look for tips and ideas about life and culture in Africa. Then we’re catching a long-haul flight! We’ve volunteered to take part in a charity project in Uganda. The project aims to improve people’s lives for the future. Instead of giving people food, we’re going to help them to grow their own. We’re also going to build a well for water. Some of us are going to provide English classes, too. John and I won’t receive any salaries. Luckily, the project has already paid for our flights, or we couldn’t have even thought about going! However, we want to support the charity. I wouldn’t mind getting a Saturday job for the next six months, if I could find one. However, that would mean that I’d have to give up playing in the school basketball team. I’m much less of a sports addict now than I used to be, but my team captain says she doesn’t want me to leave! Unfortunately this means I won’t be able to donate much myself. But you don’t have to volunteer to make a difference! Improving lives in Africa is very easy. If you click on the link on the charity website, you’ll be taken to a page where you can enter your bank details. We’ll send emails and photos to everyone who helps us, and bring back presents for those who give the most. I might even have a small party to say a big thank you!

d She’s too addicted to basketball. 4 How is Keira going to thank people? a She’s going to set up a charity website. b She’s going to write to those who donated. c She’s going to buy everyone who donated presents. d She’s going to organize a big celebration.

M = Mike, J = Jill M Hi, Jill. What are you doing? J Hi, Mike. I’m having a break. I work on Saturdays in the shoe shop over there. M Do you enjoy it? J Yes. One of my friends works there too and we have a good time. There are lots of customers. This morning we had a customer with size forty-nine feet! M Did he buy any shoes? J No. He liked some of the styles, but all our shoes were too small. He usually buys his shoes on the internet because most shops don’t have very big or very small sizes. M How many people come to the shop on Saturdays? J Probably about forty. M What are the best-selling styles? J We’re still selling a lot of summer shoes at the moment. The red ones are very popular. I’m wearing a pair – look! Some new winter shoes arrived yesterday, but they aren’t in the shop because it’s so hot. M My mum came to the shop yesterday. J Oh, yes? What did she buy? M She bought me a new pair of shoes for school. J Do you like them? M Yes, they’re fine. I’m wearing them now. What do you think of them? J They’re very nice! What size are your feet? M They’re forty-one. J You’re lucky – that’s a normal size.

M = Martin, K = Katie K Hey, Martin. Look at this photo. This is us at primary school. M Oh, yes. It was our first day. I can remember it clearly. That’s me wearing shorts and a T-shirt. My hair used to be really long. I used to hate it, but my mum thought I looked sweet! Everyone used to tease me about my hair. You look the same! K No, I don’t – I’m much taller now! I was talking to the little girl next to me when the photographer took the photo. Look, I’ve got my mouth open! M Some things never change! K Who’s that?

M That’s Miss Perkins. She used to be very strict – do you remember? K Oh, yes. I think that was her first day as a teacher. When she arrived at school, she’d only had her teaching qualification for a few months. What class did she use to teach? M I think she used to teach Year 3. K And there’s Mr Jones. You had to be really polite to him. If you didn’t listen in class, he used to shout at his students. I remember I used to get really upset! M Ah!

C = Carol, K = Kevin C I haven’t been getting on very well with my brother recently. I don’t really know why, so I’ve been reading about the effects of birth order. K What’s birth order? C Well, apparently your personality is influenced by where you are in your family. So for example the oldest child will have a different personality from the middle child and from the youngest child. K That sounds fascinating. C Yes. I’m the oldest child in my family. Oldest children are usually good at school, ambitious and have lots of energy. K That’s certainly true for you. What about middle children? I’ve got an older brother and a younger sister. C Middle children sometimes aren’t very good at making decisions. They often take a long time to decide what job they want to do. But they like peace. They don’t like having arguments. They often help the other people in the family to get on better. K That’s hilarious. I’ve just had an argument with my sister! C What was it about? K She was telling these awful jokes. They weren’t at all funny. What are youngest children like? C They’re usually the funniest members of the family. K Oh!

J = John, M = Mum J

Mum, I don’t feel very well.

Tapescripts M How do you feel, John? J I feel tired and hot. M You’ve probably got a cold. You might not be able to go to school for the rest of the week. J I don’t feel that bad! M No, but you’re infectious and you could give the cold to other people at school. You should stay in bed for a few days. You can give a cold to other people in several different ways. When you cough or sneeze, you can infect other people. Or if you touch your nose or eyes and then touch another person, you may infect them with the cold. Actually, you don’t need to touch the other person directly. If you touch an object such as a desk or bag, you can transfer the cold virus to the object. And then if your classmate or teacher touches the object later and then touches their mouth, nose or eyes, they may become infected. J But it’s only a cold. M Yes, but there isn’t a cure. J Oh, no! M Don’t worry. Colds are very common. Adults have between two and four colds a year, and children can have as many as eight or ten a year. You’ll be better soon.

They are very fair with their employees and pay a decent salary. In addition, all their clothes are made from recycled materials. They want to make clothes which are cool and practical at the same time. M How did you find them? J My sister was given a jacket from the same company as a birthday present by her boyfriend. I really liked it, so I asked him where he bought it. He gave me their website address. M Is it an English company? J No. It’s actually Scottish. Their offices are in Glasgow. M I haven’t seen their clothes in the shops. J No, their clothes aren’t sold in shops and they aren’t exported to other countries. They are only sold on their website.

P = Pete, B = Bet B Hi, Pete. There’s an election tomorrow. Who are you going to vote for? P I’m not old enough to vote. I’m only sixteen. In England you have to be eighteen to vote. B If you could vote, who would you vote for? P Well, I think all of the political parties have got some good policies and some bad policies. B What would you do if you were the head of state?

Tapescripts Now, that’s a good question! Firstly, I’d introduce longer holidays for students. I don’t think we have enough and by the end of term we’re really tired! Secondly, I’d ban reality TV shows. I think they’re embarrassing and the people who appear on them look a bit stupid. I think that’s unfair. And thirdly, I’d build more sports facilities. Unless we provide good sports facilities, people won’t do enough exercise. I’d lower the price for gyms and swimming pools. I’d also raise taxes on unhealthy food. Unless shops can sell fresh food at reasonable prices, we’ll carry on buying cheaper food which is worse for you. B Wow – you’ve got some good policies. I’d vote for you! P

D = David, C = Chloe D Hi, Chloe. This happiness test in the magazine is interesting. It asks you to read three sentences and say if: 1 you strongly agree, 2 you agree, or 3 you strongly disagree. C Do you think people will give their opinions honestly and openly? D I don’t know. Do you want to try it? C Go on! What’s sentence 1? D ‘My life is perfect.’ C I strongly disagree. If I hadn’t split up with Mark last week, I would have strongly agreed! D OK. Sentence 2: ‘I have got all the important things I want.’ C Yes, I strongly agree. For me the most important things are family and friends. And I’ve got lots of friends and a generous family who want me to be happy and successful. D OK. Sentence 3: ‘If I’d been able to choose to be anyone, I would have chosen to be me and to have my life.’ C I strongly agree. I can’t imagine being another person. D Well, you’ve scored very highly! Happiness is influenced by realism, and your first answer was very realistic. Life is never ‘perfect’. Happiness is also influenced by good social relationships, and you have good relationships with your friends and family. And thirdly, happiness is influenced by a clear personal identity, and you’re happy with yourself.

M = Max, T = Tilly M Hi, Tilly. I saw a great film last night called Catch me if you can. T Isn’t Leonardo DiCaprio in that film? M Yes, that’s right. He’s the main character. He plays a young conman called Frank Abagnale. The film starts in 1963 with Frank aged fifteen. He’s living happily with his parents in New York. One day they discover that Frank’s father has broken the law by telling lies about his financial situation. The family has to leave their big house and move to a small apartment. Frank’s parents get divorced. Frank pretends to be a French teacher. This is the first of many jobs that Frank pretends he can do. He later pretends to be an airline pilot, a doctor and a lawyer. T How is he caught? M Well, a detective from the FBI, Carl Hanratty, tries to catch Frank. Frank is very clever, but finally Carl catches him in France and brings him back to the USA. Frank escapes, but later agrees to go to prison. Carl convinces the prison to let Frank work with him in the FBI. T What happens in the end? M Frank is married with three sons and he is still good friends with Carl. He is also very rich!

M = Matt, J = Julie M Hey, Julie, look at this photo of Mum and Dad. J I didn’t recognize them! M I know. Someone must have taken this photo twenty-five years ago. J I didn’t know that Dad used to have long hair! M No. What a great hairstyle! And look at Mum’s clothes. Her dress is brilliant. I love that dress. I think long, colourful dresses were the craze at that time. J What’s that gadget that Dad’s holding in his hand? M I think it’s a walkman. You used to put a cassette in it and listen to music with headphones. It’s a bit like an iPod, but you couldn’t download music in those days because there were only a few computers and the internet didn’t exist. The internet only started in the way we know it in 1990.

Tapescripts I think in this photo they’ve just met. They’ve been together for nearly twenty-six years now. M Yes, they’ve always got on well. I think it’s because they’ve got a lot in common. J They don’t have many arguments. I hope I have a relationship like theirs when I get married. M If you get married … J

I’d honestly prefer to go to the party, but I don’t want to break my promise to my grandmother. I know she’s been looking forward to my visit and I don’t see her very often. A You could make up an excuse. You could say that your dog was ill. R I haven’t got a dog. A Oh. You could make up an illness for yourself. You could pretend that you’d got flu. R No, she’d be worried about me if I said that. A You could say you missed the bus and it got dark, so you couldn’t go. R She lives five minutes’ walk away. I don’t have to catch a bus. A Mmm. What about … R Alberto – sometimes it’s just easier to tell the truth! And I don’t want to tell a lie to my grandmother. If she found out that I’d lied, I’d really hurt her feelings. And if she didn’t find out, I’d still feel guilty about it. I respect my grandmother and she wouldn’t lie to me. A OK, I admit you’re right!

They’ve got two children who are sixteen and eighteen – the same age as my brother and me, and we all get on really well. Their house is brilliant – it’s very big and they’ve got a swimming pool, a table-tennis room and a gym. We always work out in the gym when it gets cooler in

the evening. We have to do lots of exercise because their dad is a chef, so not surprisingly he cooks very well and we eat too much. Their mum is a journalist and she often interviews famous people. She lets us read her interviews before they’re published in the magazines. Sometimes she interviews a celebrity at home and we try to make something up so we can go into her office and meet the celebrity. So, yes, the answer to your question is that I am doing something nice this weekend! M Wow! T What are you doing? M Oh, nothing much!

M = Millie, T = Tom M Hi, Tom. Did you go to the meeting after school last night? T Hi, Millie. Yes, I did. It was quite exciting. M What happened? T The head teacher explained that they wanted to introduce a school uniform because students had started to wear very casual clothes which the teachers thought weren’t appropriate for school. M Really? Were there any students there? What did they say? T Well, Trish, who’s the head of the students’ union, said that students didn’t think that it was a good idea because students didn’t like wearing school uniform. She admitted that there was a problem with the clothes of some students, but she complained that the school was making a mistake. She asked why all the students had to suffer because a few students were doing something wrong. M Good point. What did the head teacher say? T She agreed to do some research. M Did you have to vote? T No, there weren’t enough students there to vote. The head teacher is going to write to all the students and ask them for their opinion. If most students want to wear normal clothes, we won’t have to wear a school uniform. M Oh, that’s good news. Thanks for the report!
