Reading • Refer students to the Reading tips on page 20. Also give them the following advice: - Each heading can only be used once. - Underlining key words in the headings and paragraphs can be very helpful. - Read the article again with the headings in place to check your answers. • The Reading task [matching paragraph headings] can be done in class or set for homework. If students do it for homework, tell them not to do the task too quickly. It should take them about 10 minutes. • When students have done the task [even for homework], ask them to check their answers in pairs. They should explain why they have chosen a certain answer.
• Check the answers with the class. Ask students to refer to the text to support their choices. Don’t give students the key if their answers are wrong, but let them discuss queries with a partner.
Use of English • Refer students to the Use of English tips on page 20. • The task [open cloze] can be done in class or set for homework. • After students have done the task individually, let them compare their answers in pairs. • Check the answers with the class. Don’t give students the key yet. Elicit the answers from them and let them discuss any points of disagreement.
Listening • The recordings for the Listening tasks are on the MultiROM. Remember that students should hear each recording twice. • Refer students to the Listening tips on page 21. • Ask students to guess which kind of words are missing in the task and to predict the answers. Sometimes there is more than one possibility, e. in gap 2 they may be listening for an adjective describing the swimming pools or a number. • Play the recording through once and get students to complete the notes. • Students check their answers in pairs. Play the recording again so that students can check/complete their answers. • Check the answers with the class. If students are unsure of any of the answers, play the relevant section of the recording again and get them to listen and repeat. • If you are short of time, students can do the Listening task for homework. Check their answers in class, following the above procedure.
Writing • Refer students to the Writing tips on page 21 before they start the task. • Ask students to write the first drafts for the Writing task [a magazine article] at home. • In the next class, ask students to work in pairs and swap their first drafts. Write the following questions on the board, and ask students to make comments on their partner’s work: Has the writer included all the required points? Is the article divided into paragraphs? Has the writer given his/her opinion? Is it clear what he/she is trying to say?

SW Well, it wasn’t as easy as that. I had to do a lot of other jobs before I got a part in a film. I was a waitress, a shop assistant and I even sold vacuum cleaners for a while. I What was your first important film part? SW Well, in 1999, I got a part in Thursday’s Child. The film became very popular and some directors noticed me. Suddenly life got very exciting. I Very soon after that came your most successful film so far: The Violinmaker’s Daughter. You played a blind violinist. How did you prepare for the role? SW It was a very difficult role. I spent a long time learning how to move around like a blind person. I wore a blindfold to try to understand how to live without seeing. But it was great to play the violin again. It took me months to learn the music written for the film, though. I But it was worth it, of course. You won the Oscar for best actress the following year. In what way was winning an Oscar important to you? SW I think the most important thing for me was that I won it for a film that changed my life enormously. I And what about Growing Up , your latest movie ...

I Today we are talking to the beautiful and successful actress, Sally Wilson. Welcome to our studio. SW Hello! I Thank you so much for coming. First, I would like to ask about the very beginning of your career. When did you decide that you wanted to be an actress? SW Well, to begin with, I was really interested in music, and I learned to play the violin. But when I was 15 I got a small part in a high school play called South Pacific. It was a musical and it was so much fun: the singing, the dancing, and the costumes. A year later I decided I wanted to study drama properly, to become an actress. So I applied to a drama school in New York. I spent 4 years there, and I loved it. I Did you perform in the theatre after you left drama school? SW No. After college I moved straight to Los Angeles because I knew that I really wanted become a film actress in Hollywood. I And when you graduated, did you start working in the film industry straight away?

Man Tina, do you ever buy your clothes via the Internet? Tina Not really. I sometimes look at things on Internet shopping sites but I never buy anything. Man So, Pete, are you a typical man, who doesn’t like going to shops? Pete Oh, yes. I hate it and I avoid it whenever I can. But that doesn’t mean I don’t buy anything. I buy loads of CDs but I usually order them on the Internet. Man And why do you prefer to shop on the Internet? Pete In my opinion, Internet shopping is the most convenient. You can buy anything you need without leaving home. Browsing in shops is a waste of time. If I want to buy a certain thing – a CD or some jeans, or even a piece of furniture, I look for it on the Internet. It only takes a few minutes. I can look at something and if I’m not sure I really want to buy it I can come back to it any time. When I make up my mind, I order it and either pay by credit card or when I receive it. It’s very convenient, really. Man Thank you very much. So what about you? Call us and tell us about your shopping preferences ...

TranscriptMan Three young people, Lucy, Pete and Tina are here in our studio to talk about shopping. They are going to share their opinions on different kinds of shops and also tell us what they like buying. Surveys show that most teenagers like shopping in big shopping centres because they can also go to the cinema or meet friends there. Lucy, do you enjoy shopping in the malls? Lucy It depends. If I want to go to the cinema or I need something for the computer, I go to a big shopping centre because it’s easy, but in general I hate shopping there. The crowds get on my nerves and the music is awful. Just before Christmas it’s the worst, when they play the same music non-stop. Man So where do you buy your clothes? Lucy I go to small boutiques or street markets. I love wearing ethnic clothes, so my favourite place is the market near my house. I look for unusual clothes and then alter them to fit me. Sometimes you can get a real bargain. If I need something elegant then I go to the boutiques. Man What about you Tina? Do you also go to boutiques to buy your clothes? Tina Never. They’re much too expensive. And I enjoy spending time at the mall. There is usually a sale in one of the big shops and I always buy something. I don’t mind wearing the same clothes as everyone else. I wouldn’t feel good in an unusual outfit. I prefer to look normal and fit in. Besides, when I am at the mall, I often meet my friends. We go bowling or have a drink in a café. It’s a social place for me.

[sound of door opening and closing] Mum Hello Gran! Hello children. I’m home! [sound of girl crying] Mum What’s wrong, dear? [girl continues to cry] Mum Tommy. What’s wrong with your sister? Tommy It’s Fred. Mum Her hamster? Tommy Yes, he died. Mum I expect it was because it was old, Debbie. Don’t you agree, Gran? Gran I knew it was going to happen. The old mirror in the hall fell off the wall and smashed into pieces this morning. I knew it was a bad sign. I told you, Debbie, didn’t I? [girl begins to cry even more loudly]

I’m a fisherman. I’m not good at it, but I love it. You need a lot of luck when you go fishing. That’s why all fishermen are superstitious. Last Saturday was my lucky day. Usually all the others catch more fish than I do. I don’t really mind. But that day, I was doing really well, catching lots of fish. I just knew I had more that anyone else. So I stopped to see how many I had. Seven fish. It was a big mistake. My luck changed completely. After that, I didn’t catch another single fish.

Woman I’m so tired. I didn’t sleep at all last night. Man Was there something wrong? Were you worrying about something? Woman No, I don’t know why. Well, I do, but you’ll think I’m mad. Man I’m sure I won’t. Woman Well, I was making the bed yesterday when my friend phoned to ask if I wanted to go shopping with her. So I put on my hat and went out. I finished making the bed when I came home. So I’m sure that’s why I wasn’t able to sleep. Man Well, I’ve never heard of that superstition before. Who told you that? Woman I heard it from my grandmother when I was small.
5 I wish I was wearing my glasses. 6 I wish you weren’t eating all the chocolate. 7 I wish I wasn’t still doing my homework. 8 I wish I was feeling optimistic. 9 I wish she wasn’t dancing with my friend.
