Interesting lives: Puk and Harry
Hi' I'm Puk from Thailand. In Thailand we
go to school for ten months of the year.
We have a holiday in April because it’s the
rainy season. In October we have another
holiday because there are a lot of festivals.
October is my favourite month!
The food here is very spicy and we always
eat rice with our meals. My favourite meal is
green curry with jasmine rice.
Our houses are very simple. They are two or
three metres above the land - on
tall sticks - so they
are protected from the
monsoons.
I do Muay Thai - Thai
boxing. It’s our national
sport and it’s a great way
to keep fit. On Sundays
we go to the park to
fly kites. Kite-flying is a
popular hobby here.
Most Thais are Buddhists. We have a quiet
hour every day at school when we sit with our
eyes closed and meditate. All of our houses
have statues of Buddha.
ГП Read and listen to the texts. Are the
sentences true or false? Correct the false
sentences.
Puk goes to school for eight months of the
year. .False, Puk goes to schoplfprten months,

5 Most people in the Netherlands are
Catholics. ...................................................
6 Puk has a statue of Buddha in her house.
7 Harry lives in a house boat.
3y Read the texts again and answer the
questions.
1 Why is October Puk’s favourite month?
2 What does Puk do during ‘quiet hour’?
3 When does Harry have school holidays?
4 Why does Harry like his city?
Hello! I’m Harry from Amsterdam in the
Netherlands. People in Amsterdam live in
houses, flats or house boats. We’ve got a small
house with a garden.
Dutch people love football. I play for the school team. I also like listening to
music and playing guitar.
Food here is usually simple but we’ve got a lot of foreign restaurants.
I always have a big breakfast with bread, jam, cheese and eggs. But my
favourite food is pea soup!
School finishes at 2.30 and then we are free. We have holidays at Easter,
Christmas, and for a month and a half during the summer.
My family isn’t religious but most people here are Protestants.
Amsterdam is a small city with a lot of canals and narrow streets. I love
living here because the people are friendly and there are a lot of things to
see and do.

Two Famous Criminals
the Kid.
Jesse James was born in
Missouri in 1847. When
he was 15 he left home
with his older brother,
Frank, and joined a gang
of guerrillas. They were fighting for the
Confederates in the American Civil War.
William Bonney was born
in 1859 in New York.
He became one of the
most famous American
outlaws, known as Billy
While they were fighting the Union soldiers,
the gang became famous for murder and
armed robbery. They robbed mail coaches
and murdered their prisoners of war. In one
attack they killed more than 150 people in
one town and burned down all the buildings.
When the war ended in 1865 Jesse and
Frank formed a new gang. They robbed
banks, trains and coaches. They also
murdered people.
In 1876 Jesse James changed his name to
Thomas Howard and moved to hide from
the police.
But Jesse started robbing banks again. In
1879 the Governor of Missouri offered a
reward of $10000 to anybody who caught
him. One of Jesse's gang, Robert Ford,
shot him three years later for the reward
money.
When Billy was a teenager the police
arrested him for stealing. He escaped from
jail and ran away to Arizona. His life of
crime didn’t stop and soon he was stealing
horses. In 1877 Billy killed for the first time.
He was only 18 years old.
Billy ran away again and settled in New
Mexico. He joined a gang of horse thieves.
They wanted to kill Lincoln County
Sheriff, William Brady, because he was
responsible for killing their leader. Billy
murdered the Sheriff and his deputy.
In 1881 Sheriff Pat Garrett caught Billy
the Kid. He arrested Billy for murder and
sentenced him to death. Billy escaped
from the jailhouse but Garrett went after
him, caught him and shot him. The next
day the newspaper headlines said, ‘The
Kid Killed’.

What have the faces of Mother Teresa of

They all appear on coins or banknotes. Some
are still being used today. Others are in museum
collections around the world. Portraits on coins
and banknotes help us to understand the history
of people, countries and empires.
Most faces are of kings, queens and
heads of state, but there are also
faces of artists, musicians, explorers,
inventors, scientists, religious
leaders and even the modern-day
fictional wizard Harry Potter!
In 2004, in Belgium, they made 50000 special
ten-euro coins to commemorate the Belgian
writer, Herge's, most famous characters. Tintin
and his dog Snowy appear on one side of the
coin and a map of Europe appears on the other
side. Collectors paid 31 euros for each coin.

Until 1991 in New Zealand, the portraits on

in 1953. He died in 2008.

How did they do that?
A stunt performer is a person who works as
an actor’s double. Usually the work involves
great risk. You see a stunt performer’s work
when you watch your favourite films. When the
bad guy falls from a cliff or the hero escapes
an explosion, you’re probably watching a stunt
performer - one of the invisible heroes putting
the ‘action’ into action films.
This is a high-risk job. Film directors use safety
nets to catch falling villains and there is plenty
of water ready to put out burning vehicles, but
it is impossible to avoid all risks.
3> Read and listen to the text. Are the
sentences true or false? Correct the false
sentences.
1 Jackie Chan started as a stunt performer
and then became an actor.
2 Tom Cruise doesn’t want to do his own
stunts.
3 All stunt performers work with dangerous
animals.
4 Stunt performers can be humans or animals.
Some Hollywood
actors started as
stunt performers.
Jackie Chan did
stunts in Chinese
martial-arts films
before he became
an actor. In Minority
Report and Mission
Impossible Tom
Cruise did a lot of
his own stunts. Charlize Theron does her own
stunts too.
Stunt performers need to be fit, strong and not
afraid of getting hurt. They also need to have a
speciality. This can be anything, from vehicles
to dangerous animals.
Talking of animals, not all stunt performers
are human. Sometimes a director needs a
swimming dog or a jumping cat. The film world
is full of animal actors and their stunt doubles.

In 1956, Philip K. Dick wrote a novel called
The Minority Report. Tom Cruise acted in
the film version in 2002. When Cruise used

In the film 2001: A Space Odyssey there
was a self-aware computer called HAL
9000. It started as a friendly machine, but
then decided to kill some astronauts in
order to protect its programs. By 2019,
self-aware computers like HAL 9000 will
be common.
In the 1987 television series Star Trek, the
Next Generation we first saw a holodeck - a
virtual reality room with a hologram projecting
images and sounds. Later, we saw holodecks
in X-Men, Power Rangers and Futurama. The
Japanese are working on a machine to project
smells. Holodecks will be part of our everyday
lives in the next decade.
Some experts say that most homes will have
domestic robots by 2020 and that by 2025 people
will buy more robots than cars. We saw examples of
domestic robots in television series like Lost in Space
(1965) Domestic robots will do housework, gardening,
cooking and will help children with their homework

The Fairtrade Foundation
О
FAIRTRADE
The Fairtrade Foundation is a non-profit
organisation that is trying to fight poverty
around the world. A number of charities,
churches and social groups set it in 1992.
They decided to work together to form an
organisation dedicated to the problem of
global poverty.
The Fairtrade Foundation works with farmers
and workers in poor countries to help them
improve their working and living conditions.
It does this by making sure they are paid
a fair price for their work, and by encouraging
people in richer countries to buy products with
the FAIRTRADE Mark.
The FAIRTRADE Mark shows consumers that
the farmers, who grew the products, got a fair
price for their work plus a little extra to invest
in their communities.
Typical products include coffee, chocolate,
bananas, flowers and cotton. Sometimes
Fairtrade products cost a few pence more
than other products, but that’s because the
farmers in poorer countries were paid a
respectable price for their work.
One Fair Trade company is ‘Divine’, a
chocolate company in the UK. 45,000 cocoa
farmers in Ghana grow the beans for the
chocolate and also co-own the company.
They receive a fair price for their cocoa and
they also get a share in the company profits.
Divine chocolate bars have African symbols
as decorations. These symbols mean different
things. You can check the key below for some
examples. The next time you buy a chocolate
bar or a packet of biscuits, check to see
whether the shop sells Fairtrade products and
help to do something about the world poverty.

doesn’t.

the vacuuming on a Saturday. It isn’t fair. My
brother does nothing! I feel angry with my
brother.

you feel. Ask if you and your brother
can share the housework. Housework
is more fun if you do it with somebody!

Hello. My name’s Barbara and my problem is
my best friend. Recently, she started copying
everything I do. She wears the same clothes
as me and she has the same hairstyle. I
don’t want a twin! Please help me.
Barbara
Dear Barbara,
Your friend copies you because she
admires you. She probably has low self
esteem. You have to tell her she looks
nice and help her to find her own style.

Dear Madge,
My dad is very strict. I have to be home
by eight o’clock every night. My friends
stay out until ten! Next Saturday there
is a party at my school and it finishes at
10.30. My dad says I can stay until nine
but I am not allowed to stay until the end!
Mark
Dear Mark,
Your father is strict because he wants you to be
safe. You have to show him you are responsible.
Ask if you can stay at the school party until
10.30 if you phone him regularly. Ask him to
meet you after the party. Introduce him to your
friends.

The Ancient Egyptians used plants and
minerals to decorate their eyes. They wanted to
make their eyes look bigger and more like cat’s
eyes. Today we use eye shadow, mascara, eye
liner and kohl pencils. And not just women try
to make their eyes appear more attractive. Pop
stars like David Bowie and Marilyn Manson are
famous for their exotic eyes.
These days we can use crazy contact lenses to
decorate our eyes. We can temporarily change
the colour of our eyes from blue to green or
from brown to violet. Or we can make our eyes
dramatic with a pair of designer lenses.
Contact lens companies sell lenses that look
like cat’s eyes, demons, dragons, aliens and
vampires. They have all-white lenses, all-black
lenses and every colour in between.
If you want something really different, you can
buy striped lenses, spotted lenses or checked
lenses. Other lenses have spirals, stars,
crosses and numbers. Or why not buy some
lenses with butterflies, spiders, bats or flowers?
If you decide to try decorative contact lenses,
visit a qualified optician for advice. Always buy
lenses with a prescription and make sure you
get the right size and type of lens for your eyes.

This picture was taken a few years ago, when my sister Molly was
seven. The photo was taken by our dad with his new camera. Molly
was in the garden. It was summer time and there was no school. In
the photo Molly’s wearing a summer top. She’s also wearing a sun
hat with flowers on. My sister looks happy in the photo. She was
enjoying the long summer days and our grandparents were stay-
ing with us. I think this picture shows Molly’s personality. She's very
easy-going and happy most of the time. Sometimes Molly is a bit
impatient but nobody’s perfect! I’ve kept the photo because it reminds
me of the happy summer days!

information you don't know.

...the BIG DEBATE: Should men and women do the same jobs?
There Is more equality between men and women now than there used to be. However,
statistics show that there are still a lot of stereotypes, particularly in the workplace.
I disagree. Sometimes it's better
I think men and women should do
the same jobs. What's wrong with
female miners? And why aren't
there more male nannies?
for a man to do a particular job because
men are physically stronger than
women. Also, women are better at some
jobs than men.
Gender inequality
о Over 110 million children in the world don’t
go to school. About 70% of these are girls.
о 75% of the world’s 876 million illiterate
adults are women.
о 70% of the poorest people in the world are
female.
о Women hold only 14% of parliamentary
seats in the world.
о Only 8% of the world’s government
ministers are women.
о Women do 66% of the world’s working
hours and produce 50% of the world’s

Should we have more CCTV cameras in public places? What do you think?
the BIG DEBATE: Should we have more CCTV cameras in public places?
In some countries CCTV (closed-circuit television) cameras are everywhere: in banks,
shops, schools, at the entrances to homes, at bus stops, in train stations and at airports.
Some people think that these cameras help prevent crime, but other people see them as an
intrusion.
I believe that CCTV cameras are a
good thing. I say: the more, the
better! when there are lots of CCTV
cameras there is less crime.
Watching your every move
When George Orwell wrote 1984 he terrified his
readers with his creation: Big Brother.
He described a world with CCTV cameras in
every public place. Now his world is a reality.
Look at some CCTV facts:
о
The average citizen is filmed by CCTV
cameras 300 times a day.
There are more than 25 million CCTV
cameras in the world and about 2.5 million
CCTV cameras in the UK.
Many families have CCTV cameras
in their homes as a form of security.
Insurance companies are in favour of
all homes having CCTV cameras to
reduce the risk of burglary.
Test your memory!
Which famous book is about Big Brother?
How many times a day does the average
person appear on a CCTV camera?
What is the percentage of people who are
against CCTV cameras in Oslo?
I am against CCTV cameras. I don't like the
government invading my privacy. I don't want
to be on camera when I go shopping or when
I'm walking in the street. I'd like to have fewer
cameras, not more.
CCTV has become an essential part of daily life.
Look at information about the public’s
perception of CCTV across Europe:
General attitude to CCTV (2004)

Berlin 56 39
London 94.4 4
Vienna 45.5 41.5

...the BIG DEBATE! Should teenagers work while they study?
In some countries it’s normal for teenagers to have a part-time job while they are at
school. Some work on Saturdays and during the school holidays, others have a part-time
job for a couple of hours after school.
I think the best way for teenagers
to understand the true value of money is to
get a part-time job while they are at school.
As well as earning extra pocket money, they
will learn a lot of useful skills that they don't
learn at school.
I don't think it's a good idea for teenagers
to work, i think that teenagers need to
concentrate on their studies as well as
relax and have a good time. They should
not get a job until they are adults.
Paper rounds
In the UK and the USA, paper boys and paper girls get up very early
every morning and go to their local newsagent to collect their sack of
newspapers. Each worker has a paper round - a list of houses and
streets where they have to deliver a daily newspaper. When they finish
their paper rounds they go to school like the rest of their friends. They
get paid at the end of the week and usually earn between £15 and £25
a week.
Saturday jobs
A lot of teenagers have Saturday jobs
working in big department stores, restaurants,
hairdressers or supermarkets. These places
usually have a lot more customers on
Saturdays and that’s why there are plenty of
Saturday jobs available for young people. An
average wage for a Saturday is about £22 for
the whole day.
Babysitting
Babysitting is the perfect job for a teenager
who wants to earn some extra money
without really doing very much. As soon as
the child you are babysitting for is in bed,
you are free to do your homework, watch
TV or read a book. Babysitters’ pay varies,
but you can earn up to £10 an hour.

...the BIG DEBATE: Should irresponsible people pay to be rescued?
The rescue services often rely on volunteer staff and have to raise money to pay for
equipment, vehicles and training. Rescue services across the world save thousands of lives
every year. They rescue people who have had accidents or are victims of natural disasters.
Other times they have to rescue people who have acted in an irresponsible way.
I think that people who act irresponsibly
and need rescuing should have to pay for the
service. Why should rescuers risk their lives to
save people who are not being sensible?
if the rescue services made people pay, people
wouldn't put themselves at risk.
I disagree, just because somebody makes a
bad decision and gets into trouble it doesn't
mean they should have to pay to be saved.
Everybody has the right to the same services,
not just sensible people!
Dramatic sea rescue
Richard Neely and Allyson Dalton survived for 19 hours in
shark-infested waters while they were on a diving trip near
the Great Barrier Reef, Australia. The couple left their dive
boat and drifted out to sea.
The rescue services sent seven helicopters, three planes
and six boats to search for the couple, making the cost of
the operation high. Neely and Dalton made an equally high
sum of money by selling their story to the press.
Some people suspected that the couple were lying. This
is because they sold their stories to the press just hours
after their rescue. The rescue services decided to organize
an investigation to find out what really happened and they
eventually decided that the couple were not guilty.
Newspapers reported that the couple did not follow the
instructions from the dive instructors and behaved in a
foolish way, putting their lives at risk. Some people think
that the couple should contribute towards the cost of their
rescue.
Test your memory!

...the BIG DEBATE: Should you make your friends in real life or in cyberspace?
We spend an increasing amount of time making friends on social networking sites instead
of spending time with real friends. Is this a good or a bad thing?
Making friends is easy now.
In cyberspace we have the opportunity to
meet people who live thousands of miles
away, so we can make friends with people
from different cultures and learn a lot from
them.
what’s the point of having friends who
live far away? I think it's better to be able to
make friends with people who live nearby,
people who you can meet at the weekend in a
real situation.
Online community
о 55% of British teenagers have an SNS (social networking site) profile.
о 91% of British teenagers use an SNS to stay in touch with people they
know and 49% use them to make new friends.
о American teenagers have an average of 75 friends on an SNS and
an average of 52 IM (instant messenger) buddies.
о More than 20 million people visit one online dating service a month.

dating.

...the BIG DEBATE: Should we prohibit to protect?
In 1985, UNESCO added the ancient city of Petra to its World Heritage list because of its
‘exceptional universal value ... which deserves protection for the benefit of all humanity'.
Hundreds of thousands of tourists visit the city every year. Unfortunately, the tourists don’t
always act in a responsible way and cause damage to the buildings and the delicate plant life in
the area. The site now needs very expensive restoration.
I think that we should prohibit people
from visiting world Heritage sites in order to
protect these places, if people don’t know how
to behave in a responsible way, they shouldn't
be allowed to get near to ancient monuments
and buildings. Maybe we could limit the entry to
people who can prove that they are responsible?
I don't think we should prohibit entry
anywhere. The world belongs to everybody,
so we can’t just stop people and say, 'no,
you can't come in', we have to teach
people to respect these travel destinations
and maybe make them pay for any
damage they cause.

Responsible tourism
Here are some tips for tourists from the Friends of World Heritage:
Take your rubbish away with you so that other people can enjoy
visiting clean sites after you leave.
Support the local economy by buying local products like
postcards or t-shirts.
Never take away a piece of the site itself. Don’t be tempted
to take a pretty stone or a bag of sand, just think what would
happen if everybody did the same!
Enjoy views from the ground. Helicopters create noise pollution
and their carbon emissions are very harmful. Travel using the
least polluting method of transport.
Never climb onto the walls of ancient monuments and buildings.
Hire local guides.
Respect the natural environment.

...the BIG DEBATE: Should recycling be obligatory?
Most people are aware of the importance of recycling. Some countries recycle a large
percentage of their waste, but other countries recycle very little.
I think that recycling should be
obligatory, then people would be more
careful with what they throw away and there
would be less rubbish. They should pay for
their rubbish if they don't
want to recycle.
I disagree, you can't oblige
individuals to recycle, some people don't
have the time or space to sort their waste
into separate bins. I only have space in my
kitchen for one bin and recycling takes a
lot of time.
Recycling world
In Switzerland everybody recycles. Throwing
rubbish away costs money - they pay €1 for
each rubbish bag they throw away, but recycling
is free. There is a garden-waste collection every
two weeks and a paper collection every month
and there are bottle banks at every supermarket
(the Swiss recycle 80% of plastic bottles!). Other
recycled materials include metal, batteries and
used oil.
Denmark is one of the greenest countries
in Europe. It is not surprising that they were
one of the first countries to develop recycling
programmes. Nearly 10000 Danes work in the
recycling industry - more than 0.1% of the
population. The Danish government collects
waste from homes and has telephone helplines
for people to call and arrange collections.
Denmark recycles 31% of household
waste. They send metal, batteries and electronic
waste to other countries for recycling.
German families have at least five types of
rubbish bins: for packets and cartons, paper
and cardboard, glass, left-over food and other
rubbish. Bins are colour-coded. In Germany
the law obliges you to deposit used batteries in
specific bins. Around 90% of Germans sort their
rubbish.
Greek people do not normally sort their rubbish
- they throw away three billion plastic bottles
every year - 20% of Greece’s waste is plastic,
but they only recycle 1% of this.
Test your memory!

of rubbish in Switzerland?

...the BIG DEBATE: Should we force teenagers to stay at home after 9.00 pm?
A curfew is an order that says that young people must return home and stay inside the
house by a specific time, usually in the evening or at night.
I think that curfews for teenagers are a
great idea. Young people should be at
home by 9.00 pm and not on the streets,
i think the government should introduce
curfews in all towns and cities for
teenagers under the age of 14.
I believe that curfews violate a
teenager's rights. 9.00 pm is too
early to be at home, what's wrong
with spending time with friends on
the streets?
Operation Goodnight
Redruth is a small town in Cornwall, England.
Recently, the town became famous for
introducing a curfew. When the neighbours
complained about teenagers drinking,
shouting and fighting, the police decided
it was time to do something. The curfew -
called Operation Goodnight - is voluntary
but, so far, it has been effective. The police
are asking parents to make sure that children
under ten are at home by 8.00 pm and
teenagers under 16 are at home by 9.00 pm.
Police officers in Barry, South Wales are
introducing a similar curfew in their town.
They want to reduce anti-social behaviour
during the school holidays. They are asking
parents to insist that 16-year-olds are at
home by 9.00 pm. Some neighbours say a
voluntary curlew won’t make any difference,
but others want to give the scheme an
opportunity.
Test your memory!

...the BIG DEBATE: Should teenagers go out less, stay in more and learn to relax?
According to statistics, 90% of teenage illnesses are the direct result of too much stress.
Teenagers often try to do too much and don’t spend enough time relaxing. Sometimes they
worry more about their exams than about their health. The number of cases of stress-related
illnesses in teenagers is increasing.
I think that teenagers should
think more about their physical and mental
health. They worry too much about everything
and they try to do too many things. They
should relax more,
learn breathing techniques like
yoga, and exercise.
I disagree. You're only young once!
Teenagers have plenty of time to do a lot of
different things. There's nothing wrong with
going out every night: young people will have to
slow down when they are older and have more
responsibilities, but they should have fun while
they are young. у

What are the symptoms
