Michelle Obama. Because I’m such a huge fan of hers. And Tadaa! This is my new room. (Did I mention I want to surf?)
because what she says
Add is so true!
featured photos There’s so much space. My bedroom here in Australia
is four times my bedroom in Britain. Lots of space for
sleepovers ;-)
And there’s more … Sea view! Jealous? You should be! And
we have a garden. A BIG garden. With trees in it. Many
trees! Dad and I are going to build a tree house for me in
the biggest one. So yes, right now I am happy we moved to
Australia.

What type of people live in tiny houses? Give three characteristics.

Many don’t have a mortgage. Twice as likely to have a masters degree.


2 out of 5 are over 50. They have more savings than the average American.

More women than men.


82 Unit 2 Rebel without a Cause

Why do these people choose a tiny house?

It’s cheaper, you save more money for living.


Who of these people is most likely to own a tiny house?


Derek, 54, master’s degree, earns 50 000 $ a year.
Amy, 21, student, no savings, no job.
✘ Meredith, 49, master’s degree, 40 000 $ savings, three dogs.

10 Design your own tiny house.


Ontwerp je eigen tiny house en schrijf een hashtag.

You have 12m x 2,55m. For everything. Find a picture online of the tiny house of your choice. (Or make a picture
yourself.) Write a hashtag to accompany it on Instagram. Can you say something to make your house trend?

11 Your teacher is going to describe the place where he / she lives. Listen carefully and draw a
simple plan of the house. You will hear these words:
Je leerkracht beschrijft zijn / haar huis. Luister goed en teken een plan van het huis.

window – door – wall – living room – toilet – kitchen – garden – floor – bathroom – bedroom

To finish your plan, you need more information. Ask you teacher questions like these:
Om je plan af te maken, heb je meer informatie nodig. Stel je leerkracht vragen zoals:

Have you got a toilet in the bathroom?


How many chairs have you got in the living room?
Have you got posters in the bedroom?

I have got a computer

Have got
Have got expresses possession.
Have got drukt bezit uit.

He / she has got He / she has not got Has she got?

De korte vormen (’ve got, ’s got, haven’t got en hasn’t got) worden informeel
gebruikt. Meestal wordt de korte vorm uitgesproken, ook als de volle vorm

In het antwoord op de inversievraag wordt have of has gebruikt.
Have you got a black pen? Yes, we have. No, we haven’t.
Has Joanne a bike? Yes, she has. No, she hasn’t.

Many people use to have instead of have got.


Veel mensen gebruiken to have in plaats van have got.
We have a black bike.
Do you have a cat? No, I don’t.

has got two bedrooms upstairs but no bathroom. The bathroom is downstairs next to the kitchen.
The living room has got a lovely old fireplace.
In winter I like to sit by the fire and read. The house has got a garden and at the end of the garden is
the beach. In spring and summer there are flowers everywhere. When the weather is fine I often eat

Zorg ervoor dat de ander zegt wat jij wil.

Ask your teacher “Have you got …” questions. You get one point each time the answer is “Yes, I have.”
Ask your partner “Have you got …” questions that he doesn’t know the answer to.

e.g. How many books have you got?


How many pens have you got?

19 Play “Liar” in groups of four.


Speel “Leugenaar” in groepjes van vier.

Your teacher will give you a pack of cards. The pack has:
eight different items of furniture
eight family members
eight pets

The pack is dealt out. You can look at your own cards but not at anyone else’s. You take turns laying any number
of cards down on the table while making statements like “I have got three kinds of pets” or “I have got four family
members.” The first person with no cards left is the winner. You can lie when you are laying the cards down, but
just after you do so other people can accuse you of not telling the truth by saying “liar”. If you are indeed lying,
you have to take all the cards that are on the table. If the accuser is wrong, he has to take all the cards.

20 Read the excerpt of Coraline by Neil Gaiman and answer the questions.
Lees de tekst en beantwoord de vragen.

“Then explore the flat,” suggested her father. “Look, here’s a piece of paper and a pen. Count all the doors and
windows. List everything blue. Mount an expedition to discover the hot-water tank. And leave me alone to work.”
“Can I go into the drawing room?” The drawing room was where the Jones’s kept the expensive (and
uncomfortable) furniture Coraline’s grandmother had left them when she died. Coraline wasn’t allowed in there.
Nobody went in there. It was only for best.
“If you don’t make a mess. And you don’t touch anything.”
Coraline considered this carefully, then she took the paper and pen and went off to explore the inside of the flat.
She discovered the hot-water tank (it was in a cupboard in the kitchen).
She counted everything blue (153).
She counted the windows (21).
She counted the doors (14).
Of the doors that she found, thirteen opened and closed. The other, the big, carved, brown wooden door at the
far corner of the drawing room, was locked.
She said to her mother, “Where does that door go?”
“Nowhere, dear.”
“It has to go somewhere.”
Her mother shook her head. “Look,” she told Coraline.
She reached up, and took a string of keys from the top of the kitchen door frame. She sorted through them
carefully, and selected the oldest, biggest, blackest, rustiest key. They went into the drawing room. She unlocked
the door with the key.
The door swung open.
Her mother was right. The door didn’t go anywhere. It opened onto a brick wall.
“When this place was just one house,” said Coraline’s mother, “that door went somewhere. When they turned
the house into flats, they simply bricked it up. The other side is the empty flat on the other side of the house, the
one that’s still for sale.”
She shut the door, and put the string of keys back on top of the kitchen door frame.
“You didn’t lock it,” said Coraline.
Her mother shrugged. “Why should I lock it?” she asked “It doesn’t go anywhere.”
Coraline didn’t say anything.
It was nearly dark outside now, and the rain was still coming down, pattering against the windows and blurring the
lights of the cars in the street outside.
Coraline’s father stopped working, and made them all dinner.
Coraline was disgusted. “Daddy,” she said, “you’ve made a recipe again.”
“It’s leek and potato stew, with a tarragon garnish, and melted Gruyere cheese,” he admitted.
Coraline sighed. Then she went to the freezer, and got out some microwave chips, and a microwave mini pizza.
“You know I don’t like recipes,” she told her father, while her dinner went around and around, and the little red
numbers on the microwave oven counted down to zero.
“If you tried it, maybe you’d like it,” said Coraline’s father, but she shook her head.
That night, Coraline lay awake in her bed. The rain had stopped, and she was almost asleep when something
went tatatatatat. She sat up in bed.
Something went Kreeee …
… aaaak
Coraline got out of bed and looked down the hall, but saw nothing strange. She walked down the hall. From her
parents’ bedroom came a low snoring – that was her father – and an occasional sleeping mutter – that was her
mother.
Coraline wondered if she’d dreamed it, whatever it was.
Something moved.

Unit 2 Rebel without a Cause 89


It was little more than a shadow, and it scuttled down the darkened hall fast, like a little patch of night.
She hoped it wasn’t a spider. Spiders made Coraline intensely uncomfortable.
The black shape went into the drawing room, and Coraline followed it in, a little nervously.
The room was dark: the only light came from the hall, and Coraline, who was standing in the doorway, cast a huge
and distorted shadow onto the drawing room carpet: she looked like a thin giant woman.
Coraline was just wondering whether or not she ought to turn on the lights when she saw the black shape edge
slowly out from beneath the sofa. It paused, and then dashed silently across the carpet toward the farthest
corner of the room.
There was no furniture in that corner of the room.
Coraline turned on the light.
There was nothing in the corner. Nothing but the old door that opened onto the brick wall.
She was sure that her mother had shut the door, but now it was ever so slightly open. Just a crack.
Coraline went over to it, and looked in. There was nothing there – just a wall, built of red bricks.
Coraline closed the old wooden door, turned out the light, and went to bed.
source: Coraline, Neil Gaiman, p. 2-3

What do you learn about Coraline’s house? Give at least three facts.

It’s a flat. It has 21 windows.


It is her new house, they just moved. It has 14 doors.


It has 153 blue things in it. The hot water tank is in the kitchen.

There is one door in the house that is special. Why?

It opens onto a brick wall.

Bekijk de trailer en beantwoord de vragen.

What are the apartments called?


✘ pink palace apartments
They have no name.
the Palace

What makes the door that opens onto a brick wall special?

There is another world behind it, a parallel place with a “copy” of the flat Coraline lives in, with “other

parents”.

What does this story tell you about your home?


✘ That sometimes, the biggest danger is in your own home.
That we all want our home to be different from what it is.
That there’s no place like home.

There’s one tiny little thing Coraline needs to do if she wants to stay in this parallel place. What is it?

She has to replace her eyes with buttons.


22 Coraline was also made into a graphic novel. Read the excerpt on the next page and answer
the questions.
Lees de graphic novel en beantwoord de vragen.

What does Coraline get? Why?

She gets a stone with a hole in it, because “they’re good for bad things sometimes”.

Who does she get it from?

An old lady, a neighbour she visits.


Why does she get the stone so early in the story?

It is a warning of what is going to come. A sign something bad is going to happen.


What do you learn about the house and its surroundings in this excerpt?

It is a big, old house surrounded by nature. There is a lot of fog coming. Again, a sigh of the creepy things that

are going to happen.

Which word do you think fits Coraline best? Explain.

bored – curious – alone – sad – happy – playful

She is bored, alone and curious. But in these specific pages, she is most of all bored and looking for

something to do, somebody to do something with.


Coraline is a book, a graphic novel and a movie. Which version of the story is the creepiest? Does this
make it the best version too?

In the book, everything is based on your imagination, which can be the creepiest.

The movie looks beautiful, more like a fairytale, which can make it less creepy.

The graphic novel looks more realistic, which can make it more creepy.

something about what they have got.

Questions (intonation)
25 Listen to these questions and put them in the correct column. Do they have rising or falling
intonation?
Luister naar de vragen. Gaan ze omhoog of omlaag?

Did you do your homework? – When did you do it? – Have you cleaned your bedroom? –
Can you open the door? – Will you listen to your mother? – Where did you put it? – Why did you do it? –
Who helped you? – When can we talk?

Rising intonation Falling intonation


Did you do your homework? When did you do it?
Have you cleaned your bedroom? Where did you put it?
Can you open the door? Why did you do it?
Will you listen to your mother? Who helped you?
When can we talk?

Do you see the pattern?

Yes / no questions have rising intonation, wh-questions have falling intonation.


Now, write down three questions that have a falling intonation and three
that have rising intonation. Practise them with a partner.

32 Objects in a box:
the teacher goes around the classroom and picks up some small objects. He puts them in a
box. He takes one of the objects out of the box, but covers it. You have to guess what he has
in his hand.
De leerkracht gaat door de klas en verzamelt kleine spullen in een doos. Hij neemt een van
de objecten terug uit de doos, maar bedekt het. Jullie moeten raden wat hij in zijn hand
heeft.

e.g. teacher: What have I got in my hand?


pupil: A pen. Have you got a pen in your hand?

The pupil who guessed correctly has won the object, unless someone else can call out
something true about it before the teacher hands it over. You can continually attempt to
“win” the object by calling out true statements.
De leerling die juist geraden heeft, krijgt het object. Tenzij iemand anders iets waar over
het object kan roepen voor de leerkracht het heeft overhandigt. Je kan blijven proberen
het object te winnen door ware dingen te roepen.

e.g. pupil: It is blue!


pupil: It is not a cat!

Finally, the teacher will ask whose object it is.


Uiteindelijk zal de leerkracht vragen van wie het object is.

e.g. teacher: Whose is this?


pupil: It is my / her / his pen.

She has got long hair.
I look at him.

After each sentence, the others try to guess who you are talking about. Whoever guesses
right first, gets a point and makes the next sentence.
Na elke zin proberen de anderen te raden over wie het gaat. Wie juist raadt, krijgt een punt
en mag de volgende zin maken.

Which sentence is the longest? (stress)
English is a stressed language. You give stress to certain words while others are quickly spoken
(swallowed). This means the amount of syllables doesn’t tell you everything about the length of a
sentence.
Stressed words are content words: nouns (bedroom, Peter …), main verbs (visit, eat …),
adjectives (beautiful, old …), negatives (no, nothing …), quantities (a lot, many …).
Non-stressed words are function words such as determiners (the, some …), auxiliary verbs (don’t, am, can,
were), prepositions (before, next to …), pronouns (he, she, us) the verbs to have and to be.

44 Say this sentence aloud and count how many seconds it takes:
Zeg deze zin luidop en tel hoelang het duurt.

The beautiful girl kissed the boy on the mouth.

Now, try speaking this sentence:


He can come on Wednesdays as long as he doesn’t have to do any homework in the morning.

Try again, now using these sentences:


They can come on Friday. both sentences take about the same time, although the second one is much longer.
They can’t come on Friday. The second sentence takes longer, because you have to stress “can’t” as well.

Which words are content words and should be stressed in the following sentences?
Practise with a partner.
Welke woorden voegen inhoud toe en moeten beklemtoond worden? Oefen met een

1) They’ve been cleaning the house for five hours.

They have to really provoke him, to make him fight. What makes him really angry in the end?

That he is called a chicken.


Is there anyone who tries to stop the bullying?

Plato tries to defend Jim with a chain. Two adults watch the fight and come to send the teenagers

away when it’s already over.


Who wins the fight?

Jim.

But it isn’t over. They are talking about “a chickie run”. What do you think “a chickie run” is?

A chickie run is a high-speed drag race toward the edge of a steep bluff above the ocean using stolen cars. The

first to jump out seconds before reaching the edge is considered chicken, cowardly, and not worthy of recognition

by peers. As Jim’s psychological orientation teeters between teen-age and adulthood, the cliffs are the perfect

location to test his experience - will he survive the life-death challenge and cross over into the world of adulthood?

What do you do when it’s the teacher who bullies?

5
Realise that some people just don’t deserve your time or effort. It may not be in your power to
completely stop them right now. But it is in your power to limit the time of your life they spoil. Give
them as little as possible.

3
Understand denial. There are people who think they never do anything wrong. If you have
confronted your teacher but he doesn’t feel like he has done anything wrong, you can’t make him
think differently.

4
Find a good support system. Ask for help. Tell your parents. Tell friends. Tell a teacher you trust. Find
somebody you can vent to and ask this person if it is really worth fussing over. Do you have a friend
who has very good people skills or who is very strategic? Let them teach you!

1
Know that the teacher bullies you. Check and double check. Is it just you feeling this? Do others
think/feel the same?

2
Confront the teacher. Tell him / her how you feel. If everything that is happening is true and you are
sincere, in the best case scenario the teacher will say: “Okay, I’m sorry.”

Can these boys become friends?

It looks like they could be. Want to be.


Do bullies often bully the people they in fact admire and would love to be their friends?

If someone doesn’t interest you at all, he is not interesting enough to bully either.

What do you now think a chickie run is?

A chickie run is a high-speed drag race toward the edge of a steep bluff above the ocean using stolen cars. The

by peers. As Jim’s psychological orientation teeters between teen-age and adulthood, the cliffs are the perfect

Do you think these boys are bored?

It sounds a bit like they are. But first and foremost, they are trying to build a personality and establish a

relationship and they don’t know any better way to do this than the chickie run.

and answer the questions.
Bekijk het fragment en beantwoord de vragen.

What is “a chickie run”?


A chickie run is a high-speed drag race toward the edge of a steep bluff
above the ocean using stolen cars. The first to jump out seconds before

reaching the edge is considered chicken, cowardly, and not worthy of



recognition by peers. As Jim’s psychological orientation teeters
between teen-age and adulthood, the cliffs are the perfect location to

test his experience - will he survive the life-death challenge and cross
over into the world of adulthood?

Who wins?

Buzz doesn’t jump. But he doesn’t survive either.


Is it a fair game?

Both boys have a car and the same chances, but Buzz wants to impress his friends, he has a reputation to

protect. Whereas Jim wants to impress the people he’d love to be his friends, he has a reputation to build.

How important are these feelings in the “chickie run”? Rank them from least to most important.

pride – anger – peer pressure – reputation – foolishness – boredom

All have a part, so the following order is up for discussion:


boredom – foolishness – pride – peer pressure – reputation


Many teenagers are watching the “chickie run”. Would the “chickie run” take place without them?

No. A big part of the chickie run is peer pressure and the want to impress their peers.

Is this a very childish or a very adult-like thing to do?

The race is crazy dangerous and therefore childish. But at the same time the boys test their sense of

judgment and self-control, which are very adult characteristics.


Buzz is very confident. In fact, he is overconfident. Why is that not a good thing at all, in the end?

Buzz keeps glancing at Jim to see is he is preparing to jump. He waits for him to jump first. But after another

glance back and forth, part of his sleeve gets caught on his car door and he can’t jump out. Buzz lets his

concern over his reputation amongst the crowd influence him to be overconfident, which ultimately kills him.

The thistle is Scotland’s national flower and one of the best-known symbols of Scotland. No one knows for
certain why, but one legend tells about a sleeping party of Scottish warriors who were saved from ambush by
an invading Norse army when the enemy stepped on the spiky plant.
The Order of the Thistle has been an important symbol of Scottish heraldry for over 500 years. It is one of
the highest honours the country can give an individual. The official motto of the order is “No one provokes
me with impunity”. Because the Scottish highlanders used to be every bit as tough as the prickly plant.
Thistles are everywhere in Scotland, you can even literally find them on the people walking around. The
thistle tattoo is considered to be a talisman against the evil eye, damage and other’s bad thoughts. The
thistle is a symbol of pride, determination, tenacity and toughness in the face of great hardship and long
odds.

Mark in the text all the things the Scottish Thistle represents.

Cyberbullying
70 Read and discuss these numbers about cyberbullying.
Lees en bespreek de tekst.

• 87% of the teenagers have witnessed cyberbullying.

• 15% of teenagers admit to cyberbullying.
• 24% of the teenagers say they do not know

source: https://www.teensafe.com/blog/cyber-bullying-facts-and-statistics/

What do these numbers tell you about the potential victim?

It is more likely to be a girl, probably someone who does not look “mainstream”.

What do these numbers tell you about the potential bully?

It is probably someone who likes to gossip. It might be someone who is bullied himself.

What do these numbers tell you about adults and cyberbullying?

Nothing.

“One out of three feels they are more accepted on social media than in real life.” What is the impact
of this number on all the other numbers in this text?

It means we have to take cyberbullying very, very serious. Teenagers think their online life is very important,

even more important than their life offline.
