My name’s Will Davis. I’m 16 and I live in Manchester
with my parents and my sister. I’m friendly, energetic

I don’t often go out during the week because I’m usually
busy with homework. This year, I’ve got my GCSE exams,
so I’m studying a lot. I’m learning the guitar and I have
lessons on Mondays. Once a week, I do voluntary work
at a centre for old people. It’s hard work, although I enjoy
talking to them.
At the weekend, I usually meet my friends. We love
listening to music or playing computer games and
we often go to parties. I’m never bored!

Last Saturday evening, I was walking home from the
sports centre with my friend Zoe. It was raining hard and
very windy. We were a bit frightened.
Suddenly, a big branch fell from a tree onto the road! We
were trying to move it when a car appeared. The driver
didn’t see the branch and crashed into it. I ran towards
the car. Meanwhile, Zoe called an ambulance. The driver
wasn’t conscious although he was breathing.
The ambulance took the man to hospital. Then, a
reporter arrived as we were leaving. We told her about
the accident and the next day our story appeared in the
newspaper – it was really exciting!

History then and now


Famous writers and books
The first English novel?
Robinson Crusoe is a novel by Daniel Defoe, published
in 1719. It is a fictional story about a man who spends
28 years on a remote tropical island after his ship sinks.
Many people think that Robinson Crusoe is the first
novel in English. There are many film versions of the
book.
Daniel Defoe (c1659–1731)
Defoe was an English writer and journalist. He wrote
hundreds of books on different topics, including
politics, crime and psychology. He is famous for
Robinson Crusoe and for making novels popular in
Britain.
Defoe’s inspiration
Alexander Selkirk was a Scottish sailor who lived on an
island near Chile for four years. After his rescue, his
story was in British newspapers. Defoe probably got the
idea for his story after reading about Selkirk.
Exploration and discovery
In the 18th century, Europeans travelled all over the
world exploring its oceans and continents. They began
to produce much more accurate maps and this helped
to increase trade. Their expeditions helped to expand
scientific knowledge in areas such as geography,
astronomy, anthropology and mathematics.

Bulgaria, Trekking in Rhodope Mountains
Hi again, friends! Today I am writing my blog from the Rhodope
Mountains in the south of Bulgaria. It’s the oldest mountain range
in Bulgaria and there are wonderful nature reserves and waterfalls
to see here too. The eco-trails also make it the perfect area for
hiking. When you are tired, you can go to a traditional hut for food
or you can even sleep there at night! You can also visit Yagodinska
cave – it’s very, very old and 10 kilometres long. But don’t go there
if you are scared of bats - there are more bats than tourists :-)

UK, Cycling in the Lake District


Hello again! I’m writing to you from the Lake District in England.
I’m on an eco-cycling tour with my dad and we’re riding our bikes
all over this beautiful part of the UK. There are cycle trails
everywhere – so cycling is easy. Dad loves it here because he can
go fishing and see some natural landmarks. But we’re not here only
for fun. Tomorrow there is a presentation in our campsite. We are
going to learn about biosecurity and the things we can do to help
save the planet. The lakes and the wildlife here are amazing – but
I’m a little sad that there’s no Loch Ness monsters here ;-)

1 Read Nina’s blog posts and say where you can do these things. Write (R) for Rhodope
Mountains, write (L) for the Lake District:
1 go inside a big cave
2 learn about saving the planet
3 see waterfalls
4 catch fish

Students from Highbury School have donated over £1,500
to charity. Organizer Harriet Jones said, ‘We all enjoy
cycling so we did a 10km sponsored cycle ride at the local
park to raise money.’ Parents and friends were at the park
to support the students.
The students have decided to donate the money to the
WWF to help endangered animals. Student Ben Davies
said, ‘We are supporting this charity because many of us
have studied endangered animals at school.’
Headteacher Marion Kemp said, ‘This school has done
charity work for years but we’ve never done a cycle ride
before. I hope it becomes an annual event because it has
been a real success.’

The California gold rush


The California gold rush started on 24th January 1848
when James W Marshall discovered gold at Sutter’s Mill
in California. Soon, people in San Francisco heard stories
about gold. In December 1848, the president of the USA
told the world that there was gold in California.
The forty-niners
The early gold-seekers were called ‘forty-niners’ because they
started their journey to California in 1849. A lot of the
‘forty-niners’ arrived by ship but 150,000 walked to California
from other parts of the USA.
Effects of the gold rush
The gold rush changed California. The population of San
Francisco grew from 1,000 in 1848 to 150,000 in 1870. A railway
line was built to join California to the rest of the USA. But not all
the changes were good. The Native Americans lost their lands
and many died from diseases which
the Europeans brought with them.

Historical landmarks
Belogradchik Fortress in Bulgaria
Belogradchik Fortress is one of the most famous castles in Bulgaria.
It is in the Balkan Mountains, and it is a well-known national and
cultural monument. It was there when the Romans arrived, and it
was always very important during many battles through history.
It has also changed a lot since the original design.
Close to the Fortress are the Belogradchik rocks. These huge
stones continue for 30 km and some are 200 metres high.
Each rock has an interesting name: Madonna, The Student,
The Lion, The Bear – and, of course, The Castle! The wildlife
in the area is really wild with many unusual plants and animals.
If you’re lucky, you can see eagles, owls, wolves and deer.
The whole area is very popular with tourists. And this is no surprise –
you can see a great castle and beautiful nature in the same day!

Boldt Castle in America


There aren’t any ancient castles in America but there
are some interesting ones – and there’s even one in
New York! One day, a rich hotel owner, George C. Boldt,
decided to build a German-style castle on an island for his
wife. Sadly, she died just before the castle was finished
and because he was so unhappy, he stopped building it.
It stayed like this for 70 years and then the government
bought it and finished it. The castle has 120 rooms and
its own drawbridge to protect it from unwanted visitors!

1 Match the words 1–5 to the definitions A–E.


1 fortress A Very, very old.
2 monument B An important and big fight during a war.
3 battle C A statue or building which is important or interesting to history.
4 ancient D A type of castle used to keep people and land safe during a war.
5 drawbridge E A small bridge which you can open and close to let people into a castle.

2 Are the sentences below true (T) or False (F)?


1 Not many people know about Belogradchik Fortress.
2 Belogradchik is an important symbol in Bulgarian history.
3 There are a lot of visitors to the Fortress and the area around it.
4 The castles in America are all very old and very interesting.
5 George C. Boldt built the castle to be a hotel.
6 The castle was finished by a new owner.

Alfred Hitchcock
Hitchcock was born in the UK in 1899 and he
became one of the most famous and
influential directors in the world. He started his
career as a director in 1925. He moved to
Hollywood in 1939 and continued to make
films until he died.
Hitchcock never won an Oscar for Best
Director, although he was nominated five
times. However, he received a Life
Achievement Award from the American Film
Institute (AFI). Four of his films appear in AFI’s
list of Top 10 Mystery Films of All Time. In 1980,
he was given a
special award by
Queen Elizabeth II
and became Sir
Alfred Hitchcock.
Hitchcock’s films
Hitchcock made 53 films altogether. Many of his films
are classics that will always be popular with film lovers.
He is probably most famous for his thrillers and mystery
films including Vertigo, Psycho, and The Birds. If you
watch his films carefully, you will usually be able to see
him. That’s because Hitchcock made a short
appearance in all his films from 1938 onwards.
Audiences love trying to find him!

Travel opens your mind to other cultures, but you should always
learn about local customs before you go. Politeness is especially
important. Here’s our guide to being polite in different countries.

A
In France, men and women usually kiss each other on the cheek, but
men shake hands. In the UK, Germany and the USA, kissing is common
between friends but you should shake hands with strangers. In Russia,
you shouldn’t shake hands in the doorway of a house – it’s bad luck.

B
In the UK, you don’t have to bring a present, like flowers or chocolates, but
people will be pleased if you do. In Germany, Japan or the UK you mustn’t be
late. It’s very rude. In Mexico, you should be late – it’s normal. In Japan, China
and Scandinavia you must take your shoes off when you arrive, so you should
wear clean socks!

Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to nominate my friend Jo Henley for the Young Achievers Award.
Although Jo is only 16, she has achieved a lot. Her father is ill, so Jo looks after him while her
mother is at work. She does the cooking as well as her homework every night. Furthermore, Jo
has raised over £3,500 for charity by doing sponsored runs. However, she never complains and
is always polite and cheerful.
In addition, she plays the drums in a band and always gets excellent marks at school. Most
importantly, Jo is a fantastic friend. We always have fun together and we never have arguments.
For all these reasons I think you should give Jo the Young Achievers Award.

A news report

To stream, or not to stream?


A Piracy, illegal downloads, and falling CD sales – the music business has had
many problems over the last decade. But then along came streaming. For many
people, it has saved the music industry. However, not everyone agrees.
B On streaming websites, such as Spotify, you can listen to as many songs as you
like for free. If you pay a monthly subscription, you can also download individual
songs and you don’t get adverts. You can even make your own playlists. Music
labels are paid each time a song is streamed or downloaded. The artists are then
paid by the music labels.
C Companies such as Spotify say streaming is good for everyone. It’s cheaper
and more flexible for music fans. If you don’t like a song or album, you just stream
another one. Streaming has also reduced piracy. Why download music
illegally when you can listen online for free? It can also give
publicity to new bands, so more people go to their concerts.
D So, who is against streaming? Some artists say they aren’t
paid enough money. Millions are made by big music labels,
but songwriters and musicians often receive a very small
percentage of this money. Streaming was criticized in the
news recently by Thom Yorke, lead singer of the band
Radiohead. He thinks that it will be impossible for many bands
to survive. But he has also said that streaming won’t last and
that new forms of listening to music will appear.
E What do you think? Is streaming positive or
negative? Is it the future or is it just another chapter
in the history of music?

Easter
Home Chat Videos Topics Review Top 10

Chestit Velikden (Честит Великден) ! Or Happy Easter, in English! How are you, Grant? Do you celebrate Easter
like we do in Bulgaria? It’s a special time here for the family to be together. We sit and paint eggs in lovely
colours. But you have to cook the eggs first so they don’t break! On Thursday we make Kozunaks – it’s a sweet
bread. It’s very difficult to make but it tastes great. And on Sunday – well, do you remember those eggs? On
Sunday we have egg fights to see who has the strongest egg! I love Easter in Bulgaria!

Hey, Elena! Happy Easter! We also paint eggs – but then our parents put them around the house and garden
and we need to see how many we can find. It’s good fun but my sister always finds more eggs than I do :-( .
There’s also a game we can play with the President of America – The White House Easter Egg Roll! On Easter
Monday you can take an egg and a spoon to the grass next to the White House. You win the game by pushing
your egg fastest with the spoon. We don’t make sweet bread but we buy and eat chocolate Easter eggs.
Yummy!
