If you like skyscrapers, avenues and residential areas, you probably live in a town or city. It’s quite convenient to have facilities
like the railway station, the post office and the stadium near your home. Cities often have lots of cultural attractions such as
museums and art galleries, as well as monuments like a castle, a palace or a cathedral. Unless you like traffic and noise, cities
can also be rather stressful. They’re pretty good for sightseeing but historic towns and cities can be too crowded and rather
noisy

A famous wall attraction is Seattle’s Market Theatre Gum Wall. People have been sticking their chewing gum to the wall since the
1990s. The wall has turned into a tourist stop in its own right. Now, people create images out of their gum and even spell out
words, transforming the tradition into a form of street art. The wall was cleaned off in 2015, but it soon returned to the colourful
mess for which it was famous. Like the Gum Wall, Prague’s Lennon Wall didn’t start out as anything particularly special. But
beginning in the 1980s, it became a magnet for John Lennon-inspired everything - from artwork to song lyrics. During the
Communist times, the wall was even a source of conflict, with authorities claiming the free-spirited students and supporters of
the wall were crazy and agents of Western Capitalism. Now it is in constant evolution, but it remains a symbol of the messages
that John Lennon’s music represented

Looking after our body and keeping healthy is something we should take seriously. We are constantly receiving advice about
what we ought to eat and what we had better not eat, how to keep fit, and what we should and shouldn’t do to avoid catching
colds or getting the flu. Doctors and parents are always saying, ‘Don’t do this, don’t eat that.’ They tell us we should keep warm,
eat fruit and vegetables and wash our hands regularly

Es. 7
The dragon is pale and scruffy, he has fine fiery eyes and feels his life has been without purpose since the 13th century. The
nurse tries to be helpful and is very proud of the hospital she works for. The Colonel of Sanitation seems a bit stressed and
frantic, he seems to be looking for a little company. He is a bit touchy and irritable. The dragon represents the world of fairy tale,
fantasy and imagination. The nurse stands for the world of reality and pragmatism. The colonel represents the world of
rationality and classification: he recognises the status of the dragon but sees it as incompatible with the realistic, actual world

1. It weighs about 1.5kilograms, about 2 per cent of a human’s body weight.
2. The cerebellum controls the muscles you move voluntarily. The cerebrum is in charge of your senses, personality, emotions,
learning and speech. The brainstem regulates the body systems like your heart, lungs and circulatory system.
3. The right side of the brain is in charge of the muscles on the left side of the body. It works on face recognition, visual
imagery and creativity. The left side of the brain is in charge of the muscles on the right side of the body. It dominates in
logical functions and maths.
4. It needs regular workouts, like studying, working out number and letter puzzles and memorizing facts.

Es. 8
1. Empty your mind. Delete negative emotions from your mind and replace them with a clean and open mindset.
2. Take a breath. Take a deep breath. Breathe in through your nose and exhale through your mouth.
3. Use colour. Visualise the colours of a traffic light: green, yellow, red. Use these colours to help you to consciously slow down
and to put more mindfulness into your next move - e.g. green to go ahead, yellow to slow down and think further or to
advance with caution (and awareness), red to stop and re-evaluate your next move. This will give you more control over
thoughts, emotions, data you see, hear, etc. which can influence your attention.
4. Use power words or phrases. This is a favourite in athletics. You’ve all heard a coach trying to move a player one way or
another by shouting, ‘Go, go, go!’, or ‘Be strong!’, or ‘Lighten up, lighten up!’. Another favourite power phrase comes from
the Tao Te Ching: ‘Be Like Water’.
5. Create an image. Imagine someone who has the qualities you need at this specific moment. Ask: ‘How would he/she
respond?’. Try to ‘download’ the qualities you like about this individual’s mindset and move from there.
6. Finger-paint your name. This is an activity with movement that you can try if you are in an appropriate space. Visualise a
canvas in front of you. Imagine the palms of your hands coated with finger-paint. Take a few deep breaths and relax. Then,
using the palms of both hands simultaneously, paint your name on the canvass you have visualised. Move slowly, stay
relaxed and continue breathing slowly and deeply. This can create a nice mindset that is both calm and energised at the
same time.
7. Use music/natural sounds. Start by identifying songs that move you either up or down or which will launch you into a
simultaneously calm and energised mindset. You need about 7-12 minutes to energise. Twelve minutes to calm down

Sadly the world is full of crime and criminals. There are everyday crimes that happen frequently, like robbery, burglary,
shoplifting and pickpocketing, or more serious crimes, like blackmail, kidnapping and murder. We wouldn’t have so many TV
programmes and detective stories if we hadn’t had so much crime over the centuries. Suitable punishment is even discussed in
school deciding if detention is better than a suspension. Everyone likes discussing different ways of dealing with crime and
debating about whether the person is guilty or innocent

4. It was very hard: they had only five days off a year and couldn’t vote in elections.
5. The uniform of the first officers was simple, with dark blue coats and trousers, and top hats. Peel chose this kind of uniform
because at that time people were suspicious of the uniformed officers as they associated them with soldiers. Peelers looked
more like ordinary citizens, rather than red-coated soldiers with helmets.

from attacks. They also carry radios and a Taser, an electroshock weapon. They wear a belt with handcuffs and a tear-gas

There is a lot of discussion today about pollution, climate change and natural disasters. Using clean energy is one of the
solutions that experts talk about more and more. What is clean energy? It is using renewable sources like the sun, water or the
wind to satisfy our energy needs. I myself often think about my carbon footprint. Actions, even small ones like using the car less,
could help the environment. Also, helping the environment is actually helping ourselves

Substantial benefits: Biodiversity conservation aims to meet immediate human needs, such as clean, consistent water flows,
protection from floods and storms, and a stable climate.
Dangers linked to loss: Cultural diversity and biodiversity are intimately related to each other. If we lose one, we risk losing the
other. The diversity of societies, cultures and languages that has developed throughout human history is intimately related to
biodiversity and its uses. Other dangers
Es. 7
There is a recipe we can follow: to relate biodiversity to everyone’s daily needs so that the ownership for saving biodiversity is
spread and everyone feels responsible for stopping loss. We should ensure science, policy and politics play an equal role in
decision-making. Economics is also a great case to argue for conservation action. But such arguments should be translated into
national and local actions to realise the potential of biodiversity. We ought to revalue our choices and lifestyles to provide space
for the species that inhabit this Earth because this is relevant to us all

piece of news because of all the many distortions of the truth. Even celebrity interviews can be manipulated by clever reporters

1. Take time for yourself. Allow yourself some time and space every day - perhaps first thing in the morning or half an hour
before sleeping when you stay away from the digital distractions and spend some time with yourself, reading, writing,
meditating, and connecting with yourself.
2. Practice mindfulness so that you can ‘be there’ to observe what’s going on inside and around you. It is about paying
attention to your inner states as they arise. You can practise mindfulness at any time you want, through mindful listening,
mindful eating or walking.
3. Keep a journal. Writing not only helps us process our thoughts but also makes us feel connected and at peace with
ourselves. Writing can also create more headspace as you let your thoughts flow out onto paper. Research shows that
writing down things we are grateful for or even things we are struggling with helps increase happiness and satisfaction. Try
this at home - choose half a day at the weekend, pay close attention to your inner world - what you are feeling, what you are
saying to yourself, and make a note of what you observe every hour.
4. Practise being a good listener. Listening is not the same as hearing. Listening is about being present and paying attention to
other people’s emotions, body movements and language. It is about showing empathy and understanding without
constantly evaluating or judging. When you become a good listener, you will also be better at listening to your own inner
voice and become your own best friend.
5. Ask for feedback. Sometimes we can be too afraid to ask what others think of us. We all have blind spots, so it is helpful to
gain different perspectives in order to see a fuller picture of ourselves

Stanza 1: The free bird has the ability to be adventurous and to make decisions on its own because it has control over its own
environment. Caption: A bird in control.
Stanza 2: The caged bird is imprisoned: its wings are clipped and its feet are tied, making the bird an enraged creature.
Caption: An enraged bird.
Stanza 3: The caged bird fears the unknown and sings of freedom. Caption: A caged bird fears the unknown.
Stanza 4: Everything is in the free bird’s control, including the wind, the sky and the worms to eat. Caption: A free bird controls
everything.
Stanza 5: The caged bird lives in a setting of horror. Caption: The caged bird lives in horror.
Stanza 6: It repeats Stanza 3, representing the caged bird’s singing out of fear. Caption: A caged bird fears the unknown
Es. 4
The free bird: In the first stanza Maya Angelou describes the ‘free bird’ by using verbs like ‘leaps’, ‘floats’, ‘dips’. The free bird
enjoys the breeze, the trees, the winds, the lawn, the sky, and the fat worms. It is a symbol of freedom and these wellchosen
verbs contain joy and energy - this is also a hint for us to discover how Maya Angelou feels about freedom.
The caged bird: In the second and third stanza the poet goes on to describe the ‘caged bird’ by using words like ‘bars of rage’,
‘grave’, ‘fearful’, ‘shadow’. The caged bird with his wings still clipped and his feet still tied continues, nevertheless, to open his
throat and sing. These words are references to isolation and they are disturbing compared with the words for freedom. This
method of contrast that Maya Angelou uses throughout the poem is powerful and highlights the comfort of freedom and shows
how the poet achieves a better understanding of freedom by comparing it with something worse
Es. 5
It is a song about freedom. It tells us that we should be aware and thankful for the freedom we have. The theme of the poem is
also to become free of your fears. If the caged bird overcame his fear of the unknown, he would be as free as the free bird to live
out his life and his desires as he pleased. The poem shows that those who can overcome these fears are the only ones that are
really free

Which are your favourite chores? I like doing the washing-up but this week I’m doing the dusting, too. My sister usually does it,
but she’s staying in the country with a friend for a few days. Have you ever stayed in the country? I used to visit my grandparents
there in the summer when I was a child. They used to cook wonderful meals with no microwave or blender. In fact, they had few
gadgets and did everything by hand. But with or without anything technical, believe me, nobody could cook better than my
granny!

If you live in a city, you will know all about the advantages and disadvantages of city life. Unless you are very central, you will
have problems connected to transport and need access to railway stations or car parks. But you will have a wide choice of

you like nature, however, you must prefer the green fields and peace of the country. I think that if you have good friends around
you, you will be happy wherever you are

Greg: We’ve been discussing where to go on holiday for over a week but we’ve come to a stalemate. Leo: You’re right. What’s the
choice?
Greg: I think the choice is either the Santiago Walk starting from Roncesvalles in Spain or the Great White North till/to North
Cape.
Leo: My choice is the Santiago Walk because it’s rich in history and cathedrals and it may be warmer.
Greg: I’m afraid I don’t agree. I’d prefer the Great White North on my new motorbike. People say it’s less crowded and it must
be less tiring.
Leo: You may be right. I’ve been to both Pamplona for the running of the bulls and Santiago. However, I’m interested in the
Great White North because we might see aurora borealis.
Greg: Let’s get back to the crux of the matter - Santiago’s Walk or the Great White North?
Leo: Unless you’re trained to walk for a lot of kilometres every day, I think the Great White North is the better choice

Doctor: Let me see. Open your mouth. Yes, I can see the throat is very red. I think you might have an infection.
Doctor: You should drink a lot and take some tablets. I’ll give you a prescription.

Andrew: Are you sure? Maybe you have simply forgotten where you parked it.
Fred: I have my doubts. If I had parked it in the garage, I wouldn’t have had any problem. That’s unfair! If I knew who had stolen
it, I’d call the police to arrest them and put them in jail!
Andrew: That’s a bit stiff! I’m against prison. I think wrongdoers need counselling to help them see/realise the effects of what
they’ve done.

Bill: I’m worried about pollution.

Andy: That’s right, and some kinds of waste will take years to disappear. If I’ve understood correctly, using glass bottles could
be a good alternative because it’s possible to recycle them.
Bill: In other words, renewable energy comes from natural resources like the sun or the wind, which are always available and
inexhaustible

3. It takes waste, carbon-rich gases from industrial factories and gives them a second life so that new fossil fuels don’t have to
be taken out of the ground.
4. They asked them to provide financial support to open three UK factories by 2025.
5. This experience has shown that recycling waste carbon emissions into jet fuel is not impossible, that we can think of waste
carbon as an opportunity, that carbon can be reused over and over again.
6. The UK’s climate change targets require the aviation industry to stay within 2005 levels of CO2 emissions by 2050 - even
though rapid growth in the number of flights is expected

done.
Francis: In the past, I had lots of treatments done. I had my ear pierced and I had a tattoo done on my right arm.
Francis: Tattoos come in all shapes and sizes, thick and thin, bright or soft colours. Are you going to have a tattoo done when
you’re 18, like me?
Claire: No way! I’m not going to have a tattoo done. Tattoos are bad for your health.
Francis: It’s important to get the tattoo done by an expert. The tattoo area must be carefully sterilised and then the drawing is
done by puncturing the skin with tiny needles from where the ink is injected.
Claire: Sounds painful! I’m scared of needles! I’ll never have a tattoo done!

My father’s favourite animal is the eagle. He loves its golden feathers, sharp claws and pointed beak. I prefer furry animals or
unusual ones. Lots of unusual animals were first found in Australia. Many of them had never been seen by Europeans before. It’s
unlikely that any new species will be found in the future, so we must look after the ones we have. Animals are a precious part of
our life, which would be poorer without the chirp, quack and squawk of birds or the meowing of cats. Don’t you agree?

was like a member of the family.
Adam: Don’t you think it might be a good idea to get another dog?
Sue: I was thinking about it. There are a lot of dogs that have been abandoned by their cruel owners and have been put into a
dog shelter. It’s too bad.
Sue: I just hate the whole idea. Animals suffer, too, and their quality of life is important. The rights of animals should be
respected

2. The vaquita is a very rare member of the dolphin family discovered in 1958.
3. The black rhino, the Amur leopard living in Russia, the forest elephant and the Bornean orangutan are considered
endangered because there are few left, in some cases fewer than 100 left.
4. A combination of GPS trackers, disguised cameras that identify individuals’ distinctive markings, traces of kills, paw marks

6. In a tropical rainforest, there will be more species that don’t exist anywhere else.
7. If something happens to a single river system, a whole species can be immediately destroyed, regardless of how big that
population was befor
Es. 29
In favour:
2. It is important for conservation. It allows the wild animal population to be kept in check.
3. Farming animals is bad for the environment and cruel. Hunting allows animals to live free and have natural lives.
Against:
Yes:
It’s cruel, because whales are intelligent animals and move in family groups which would be cruel to break up. Some whales are
in danger of extinction. Commercial whaling has already been banned and those who practise it for ‘research’ are trying to
bend the rules. It’s unnecessary food which should be banned from menus.
No:
It is part of the traditional culture of some peoples around the world. Whales shouldn’t be treated differently from other
animals like fish that are killed for food. Whaling is carefully monitored at an international level. Removing some whales
increases the other fish population

Ray: We have to organise a Community Awareness Day. The head has allowed us to use the school hall to set up posters and
some stands. What would you like to do?
Michael: I’d really like to put up posters about the voluntary work I and my friends are doing in our community, like tutoring
younger students or teaching the elderly how to use computers. Can you give me a hand?

organising a bake sale and a second-hand/new-to-you clothes sale.
Ray: The head has permitted us to have a crowdfunding campaign on the school website. But we have to clarify what all the
money raised will be used for.
Michael: That’s not difficult. I love the idea of putting up photos of that school in Ethiopia. I’m looking forward to organising the
event. What name could we give it?
Michael: We’ll think about it. I’m longing/dying to help the little Ethiopian students!

It’s easy to wish the world were a better place and that more people would make the effort or have the ambition to make a
difference. It’s more difficult to actually get up and do something to achieve these goals. What are your expectations for the
future? Do you have dreams about improving the quality of life for everyone? I’d prefer people to have practical targets and
specific aims to do good, rather than people dying to have the opportunity to do their best. I’d rather people would act positively
instead of just wishing they could make more money
