From: Lucy Carter Sent: Mon 05/17


To: Adam Foster
Subject: Having a great time!

Hi Adam,
Well, the weather has been great! It’s been great! It’s been hot
and sunny all the time. The staff at the hotel say we’ve been lucky
because it often rains in September.
Greece is a fantastic place for a vacation. I’ve been swimming
every day, and Jacob and I have been waterskiing. I wasn’t very
good, so I only went once, but Jacob has gone three times now. It’s
fairly expensive, but he loves it! Oh, and we’ve also been sailing.
That was fun. There are a few more things I want to do before we
leave. Two weeks just isn’t enough! I’ve never been scuba diving
and I’d really like to try. Jacob says it’s dangerous though, so he
doesn’t want to go.
Anyway, I hope you are well. See you soon (I’ll show you all the
pictures!).

Best wishes, Lucy

Inspirational Story

The Elephant
Rope
As a man was passing the elephants, he
suddenly stopped, confused by the fact that
these huge creatures were being held by
only a small rope tied to their front leg. No
chains, no cages. It was obvious that the
elephants could, at any time, break away
from their bonds but for some reason, they
did not.

He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and made no
attempt to get away. “Well,” trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller
we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they
grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope
can still hold them, so they never try to break free.”

The man was amazed. These animals could at any time break free from their bonds but
because they believed they couldn’t, they were stuck right where they were.

Like the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a belief that we cannot
do something, simply because we failed at it once before?

Failure is part of learning; we should never give up the struggle in life.

VOCABULARY The Weather

1 Read the postcard and check the words in bold.

Sunday, May 20th


Last weekend’s hiking trip was ruined by the weather. The sun was shining
on Saturday morning when we started off, but as we got further up the
mountain, the temperature dropped to about thirty seven degrees and
the wind started blowing really hard. We could see huge black clouds in
the sky. Then we saw some lightning and heard a thunder.
A storm was coming so we headed back immediately. The temperature
didn’t rise again until we were near the bottom of the mountains. It rained
for the rest of the day and the next day it was so foggy that we couldn’t
see a thing. Maybe we’ll have better luck next time.

here?

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Dear Editor,
I am writing in response to Harry Macdonald’s article ‘Recycling
is a Waste of Time’ which appeared in your newspaper last
week. Personally I agree with many of the things that Mr.
Macdonald says.

Firstly, recycling is more expensive than we think. Furthermore,


it is difficult or impossible to recycle some materials.

Next, some people say that burning rubbish is bad for the
environment because of the fumes. Nevertheless, burning
rubbish is a very efficient way to generate electricity.

Finally, many people say they recycle their rubbish. However,


not many people take the time to separate glass, paper and
plastic. What’s more, I totally disagree with the idea of making
people recycle.

I will be interested in hearing other readers’ opinions on this


question.

Yours faithfully,
