1 Read Martin's story. Answer the questions. \

A bad day
On Monday, Martin didn't hear hi s alarm clock. He jumped out of bed, had a
shower, and quickly got dressed. He didn't get to the bus stop in time and he
missed his bus. He ran back home and jumped into hi s car. As he was in a
hurry, he forgot hi s mobile phone. He drove fast, but there was a lot of traffic. He
couldn't call his boss, because he didn't have his phone. He drove to his office,
but there were no spaces in the car park, so he had to drive to another car park in
town. He saw a space and drove towards it, but another car got there first. Martin
shouted at the driver. He drove too fast out into the road and hit another car.
Luckily, nobody was hurt, but Martin had to take his car to the garage. He finally
arrived at work at three o'clock in the afternoon. His boss was angry and Martin
was very rude. His boss sacked him and now Martin doesn't have a job.

1 Why did Martin get up late? 6 What happened in the second car park?
2 What did he leave at home? 7 How did this make Martin feel?
3 Why did he drive to work? 8 What happened when Martin was leaving the car park?
4 How did he drive in the traffic? 9 What time did he get to work?
5 Why didn't he park at his office? 10 Why doesn't he have a job now?

2 Read a second version of Martin's story. Talk about the differences. Use the cues.

Did it have to be a bad day?


On Monday, Martin didn't hear his alarm clock. He jumped out of bed, had a
shower, and quickly got dressed. He picked up his mobile phone and ran out of
the door. He didn't get to the bus stop in time and he missed hi s bus. He ran back
home and jumped into his car. He drove slowly because there was a lot of traffic .
He rang his boss and said he would be late. He drove to his office, but there
were no spaces in the car park, so he had to drive to another car park in town. He
saw a space and drove towards it, but another car got there first. Martin smiled
and said, 'It's OK.' He left the car park and drove out into the road. At last he
found a space in another car park. He arrived at work at 10 o'clock. His boss
was a bit annoyed, so Martin apologized. Martin started work and everything was
fine after that.

Carmen Talma is from Barbados, but she lives in west London. She's the
nurse at the local hospital and she loves her job. A best thing is that she
lives in a area close to the hospital, so she doesn't have to walk far. Carmen
lives on a eighth floor of the block of flats. A block is in a very quiet area.
The only problem is when a lift is out of order. That's because Carmen hates
walking up the stairs!
Last week Carmen worked late and arrived home at midnight. She realized
she didn't have her keys, so she rang a doorbell of a flat on seventh floor.
Carmen was very surprised when the owner opened a door. It was Rita, the
old friend from Barbados. Carmen was more surprised when she discovered
that her friend worked in a same hospital!

1I01le the freedom of being on the sea


Coletle Lar'ousse is 28 years old. She's from France, but she
lives in Madrid. She works there as a lawyer. Coletle loves
sailing, butshe doesn't go sailing on lakes, or boating on
rivers as most people do. She prefers sailing alone across the
seas and oceans of the world.
, Col~tle has m~de many incredible journeys. She has
, sailed-across the Atlantic Ocean three time$. In 2008, the
journey took just fifteen days. There were some frightening
moments,' she says. 'At one point, there was a terrible
storm. Theweather was so bad I nearly called for help on my
radio.' She has also sailed around more than fifteen islands in
different parts of the world. Last month, she sailed around the
islands of Hawaii and the trip took just five days.
Colette started sailing when she was ten years old after a
family holiday by the sea. She saw some sailing boats racing
across the water and loved them. After that, she joined a
sailing club and won lots of races.
So why does the married mother of two do so much sailing?
'I love the freedom of being on the sea. It's the most relaxing
thing in the world. One day, I want to sail around the world. I
think that would be fantastic.'

1 Read Anna's story. Answer the questions.
,,

few weeks ago, I bought a child's suitcase in a second- .

and shop in London. The suitcase was red and it had


a picture of a kangaroo on the front. The words Emma,
Melbourne, Australia were . written inside. I thought the
suitcase was interesting, so I bought it, took it home, and
showed it to my mother. When she saw it, she was amazed
because she'd seen the suitcase before. She told me the
story.
Many years before, when my mother was a child, an
Australian girl had moved into the house next door. Her
name was Emma and she was from Melbourne. Her family
had come to England because her father had got a job in
a hotel in London. Emma and my mother became good
friends. They often played together with the red suitcase.
I wondered why the suitcase had been in the shop. Had
Emma taken it there or had another person owned it for
a while? I wanted to ask Emma these questions, but my
mother didn't know where she lived. She'd moved back to
Australia many years before. I still have the suitcase and
one day I hope I can give it back to Emma.

Antarctica is the cold est, windiest continent in the world. It's


covered in ice, but there's hardly any rain. If you wanted to get
there, you'd have to sail across the most dangerous seas in the
world. The sun rises and sets only once a year, so there are six
months of daylight and then six months of darkness. Can you
imagine living in darkness for 24 hours a day? Who would want to
do that? Karl Hutchins would!
Karl is an extreme scientist. He lives with a group of other scientists
on one of the many research stations in Antarctica. He's part of
a team of scientists who are investigating the sea floor. He dives
under the ice in water at freezing temperatures. He wears a special
suit, called a dry suit, so that he doesn't freeze to death when he's
diving. So what are Karl and his team looking for? Many years ago,
people at the research station threw rubbish such as metal and
tractors into the sea. They didn't think there was any sea life in the
deep, cold waters. They were wrong. 'The problem is, sea life lives
in the rubbish now,' says Karl. 'It's become their natural habitat.
If we take the rubbish away, it will destroy the sea life.'
Karl has always enjoyed diving. He learned to scuba dive when
he was at university. Then he trained to dive under the ice in the
Canadian Arctic. He really enjoys diving in the cold waters of the
Antarctic. He says, 'The water is so clear and clean down there
that you can see for more than 150 metres!'

1 What's the weather like in Antarctica?

2 Why are there six months of darkness?

3 Where do scientists live in Antarctica?

Mount Everest is the highest mountain on earth. It's also one of the most

mountain. This rubbish includes tents, bottles, cans, and food packaging. Many
climbers leave behind their litter when they come down the mountain. But that
isn't the only problem. Everest 2 (visit) by thousands of
people every year and they dump their rubbish, too.

Luckily things are beginning to change. In 2004, twenty-four volunteers

just that one trip, eight tons of rubbish 4 (bring) back down
the mountain.

The Nepalese government is also trying to stop the problem. These days,
many climbers 5 (ask) for money before they begin their
expedition. They 6 (give) their money back only if they
bring their rubbish down. Also people 7 (encourage) to take
up food in metal containers, and not in glass or plastic. Afterwards, the metal

Dear Sir or Madam


-POY

I would like to apply 1at the post of Publicity Manager at The Ancient
History Museum.

As you can see from my CV, I am 30 years old and I have a degree in
history from Bristol University. It was a three-year course, and as part of
my 2students I took exams in ancient Roman and Egyptian history.

After leaving university, my first job was as a tour guide in Rome. I worked
there 3 since six years. After four years, I was 4promotion to tour guide
organizer. I was 5with charge of six tour guides. 6Since tl;1e last two years,
I have been 7work at the Roman Museum, where I am responsible Bof
education. This means I organize trips for school children and I also give
talks at local schools and colleges.

In addition to my degree, I have a 9~ in Arabic. I have lOhad studying


archaeology since September, too, but I have not taken any examinations
in it yet. I have also 11made courses in the history of ancient Egypt,
Greece, Rome, and China.

I have enjoyed my time at the Roman Museum, but I now feel the
12necessary for a new challenge. I believe I have the qualifications and
experience for the position of Publicity Manager with your museum.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours faithfully

Melanie Clarke

The fox and the stork


One day, Fox decided to make some soup. He put the
ingredients into a pot and started to stir. After a while, he
stopped to admire his beautiful soup. 1 ' _ _ _ __
he thought. 'I think I'll invite someone to lunch. But who?'
Fox tried to think. 'I don't want to invite my sister.
She's greedy. She might eat all of the soup.' Fox looked
out of his window. He saw his friend Stork standing
outside. 'I know. I'll invite Stork. She's a good friend.
She won't eat all of it.'
Stork was happy to accept the invitation. She had
smelt the soup cooking and she felt very hungry. 'That
soup smells delicious. 1 can't wait to taste it,' she said
when she came into his house.
'Hmm' thought Fox. 2 ' _ _ _ _ _ . If I'm not careful,
she'll eat all of the soup.'
Fox thought fast. He put down a wide, flat dish for
himself and a wide, flat dish for Mrs Stork. Fox ate all of
his soup quickly, but Stork had a very long beak and she
couldn't eat from the wide, flat dish.
Fox stopped eating and looked at his friend. 'Oh dear,'
he said. 'Aren't you hungry? I'll finish yours.'
And he did.
At the end of the meal, Fox sat back and said,
3 ,

'Yes,' said Stork. 'You're right. 4 ' _ _ _ __

'Thank you,' said Fox. 'I certainly will.'


That evening, Fox was hungry again. There was a
wonderl"ul smell in Stork's house and on the table there was
lots of lovely food. But, every dish was tall and narrow. Stork
put her beak into every dish and ate well, but Fox could eat nothing.
'Oh dear,' said Stork. 5 ' _ _ _ __
And she did.

2 Ask and answer the questions with a partner.

1 Why didn't Fox invite his sister for lunch?


2 Why didn't Stork eat any soup?
3 Why did Stork invite Fox to dinner?
4 Why didn't Fox eat any of Stork's food?

One day, lason Pine was travelling on the subway in New York City when
somebody stole his wallet. lason reported the crime to the police and told them
that his wallet had contained $20, his driving licence, a credit card, and an
identity card.
lason cancelled his credit card and thought no more about it. He went as usual
to the department store where he worked. Then, a few months later his manager
called him into his office. He told him that he'd found out that lason had been
arrested for shoplifting. lason said that the story wasn't true and that he'd never
been arrested, but the manager didn't believe him and told him to leave.
lason couldn't understand what had happened, but he didn't connect it to the
theft of his wallet. He tried to get another job, but he had no success. He applied
for hundreds of jobs and was never asked for an interview. Finally, he was given
a job in a supermarket. Then, a few days later, his new manager gave him the
sack. This time, lason was angry and wanted to know the problem. The manager
said that he'd read in lason's files that he'd been caught for burglary.
After this, lason went to the police and at last found out the truth. The police
told him that they'd once arrested a criminal. The man had told them that his
name was lason Pine and had shown them an identity card and a driving licence.
This information had gone into different computer databases and as a result,
employers thought that the real lason Pine was a criminal. lason's identity had
been stolen.
Today, the false information has been deleted from lason's file. He has a job
and a flat. He's a lot happier, but he's never forgotten what happened to him .

The police told Jason his identity had been stolen. D


Jason lost his job in a department store. D
The false information was deleted from his file. D
