Fotokopieerapparaten zijn algemeen verspreid en vele mensen maken er haast onnadenkend gebruik van voor allerlei doeleinden.
Jammer genoeg ontstaan boeken niet met hetzelfde gemak als kopien.
Boeken samenstellen kost veel inzet, tijd en geld.
De vergoeding van de auteurs en van iedereen die bij het maken en verhandelen van boeken betrokken is, komt voort uit de verkoop van die
boeken.
In Belgi beschermt de auteurswet de rechten van deze mensen.
Wanneer u van boeken of van gedeelten eruit zonder toestemming kopien maakt, buiten de uitdrukkelijk bij wet bepaalde uitzonderingen,
ontneemt u hen dus een stuk van die vergoeding. Daarom vragen auteurs en uitgevers u beschermde teksten niet zonder schriftelijke toestemming
te kopiren buiten de uitdrukkelijk bij wet bepaalde uitzonderingen.
Verdere informatie over kopieerrechten en de wetgeving met betrekking tot reproductie vindt u op www.reprobel.be.
De uitgever heeft ernaar gestreefd de relevante auteursrechten te regelen volgens de wettelijke bepalingen.
Diegenen die desondanks menen zekere rechten te kunnen doen gelden, worden verzocht zich tot de uitgever te wenden.
Uitgeverij Van In, Wommelgem, 2004

Alle rechten voorbehouden. Behoudens de uitdrukkelijk bij wet bepaalde uitzonderingen mag niets uit deze uitgave worden vermenigvuldigd,
opgeslagen in een geautomatiseerd gegevensbestand of openbaar gemaakt, op welke wijze ook, zonder de voorafgaande en schriftelijke
toestemming van de uitgever.

Youre Peter. First underline Paulas questions and answer all of them.
Maybe you can e-mail this assignment to your teacher.
Hi Peter
Let me tell you about my new home.
It has a lovely garden. And you know how important that is to me.
The house has three bedrooms, a kitchen, a living room, a hall and an attic. It doesnt have a cellar.
The bathroom has a shower.
The house doesnt have a garage, but I dont have a car anyway. So, thats not really a problem. Its
not far from school. I can even walk.
Do you have time to come and help me move my furniture?
Does your car have a tow bar? We dont have all the time in the world, so please
answer me soon.
Love
Paula
P.S. Whats your house like?

. down off the desk and ran to my wardrobe. It was a new one,
fortunately, so it was quite easy to open it. There inside were all my clothes,
although how I was ever going to get them on I didnt know. I ..
with my mouth and them on the carpet my T-shirts, my

knickers, my tights, my jeans and skirts and tops. Then, for the first time in weeks, I got
dressed.
I did the T-shirt first, holding the sides with my paws and pushing my head in. That was
hard enough. The knickers were even harder: I had to spread them out on the floor, stand
in the leg holes and then pull them up with my teeth. It took me ages, but I did it. Then I
tried to do the same with my tights, but that was just so hard. I had to make little jumps to
get my feet off them and then pull with my teeth. It was impossible! I stopped trying. I
found my nice little stripy T-shirt, the one with the yellow and blue stripes. It used to be
skintight, but now, of course, it was all baggy, and I thought, at least Im losing weight!
And I went, huf, huf, huf. Laughing made me feel loads better. Next I put on a short black
skirt. I . back up the table and had a look at myself. I nearly cried. I

I tried some make-up. Holding the lipstick down between my paws, I rubbed my black dog
lips around the red stick, but it was such a hopeless mess, I . it all off and
tried again. I got better, but after several goes, I decided that make-up with a hairy face
and no fingers is not on.

some strawberry jelly (gelei). Then I went to a pub where I had a jacket potato. I ate it with its skin (vel) still on.
They also served fresh fruit, yogurt and ice cream as a pudding. The next morning I ate scones. They served it
with white beans with tomato sauce. It was delicious. Then at 11 oclock I had a cup of tea. I drank a white

The last evening I had bangers and mash for tea and I got a pint of beer with a nice big head (schuimkraag).
And as a pudding I had some kidney (nier) pie served with hot custard.
