Part B

Think about when you were 12 years old. Write three paragraphs about the things
that you used to do, you used to like or used to hate and explain why. You have
some ideas in the box.
 I used to be a rebel.
I used to be lazy.
I used to work hard.
I used to like all the teachers.
I used to play a lot of video
games.
I used to wear a uniform.
I used to hate vegetables.
I used to have longer hair.
I used to play football.
I used to wear glasses.

At 12 years old I used to listen to heavy music, I used to be more unfriendly and I
used to read the stories Oscar Wilde more often. I used to wear scarves all the
time because I liked the style it gave me.

Just like I used to be less responsible with studying, I didn't like technology
classes; So I used to sabotage every opportunity when classes came. Teachers
used to file a report because I used to be a very restless person and I couldn't
stay in one place.

I used to hate soups, so I always put them aside, I used to be rebel and that
caused me a lot of problems with people, I spent time training basketball, but I
also used to watch movies about history.
