houses and some apartment buildings. The streets are very clean, and there aren’t many cars. My
school is near my house. I can walk there in 10 minutes.

There’s also a park, which has a small playground for children and a large field. I like to play
baseball there with my friends after school. All of the houses have a small front yard but big back
yards. Most of my neighbors have a swimming pool, and some even have a trampoline!

Everyone has a flower garden, and in the spring, it is very beautiful. My road is called Maple Road.
It is not in the city. It’s in the suburbs. There aren’t any restaurants, bars or cinemas on my road.
But, if you go to Main Street, you can find a lot of things to do. My favorite store is there. It’s called
Knick-Knack, and they sell everything you can imagine.

I like my neighborhood because it is very safe. There is no crime, and all of my neighbors take care
of each other. The police station is next to the school, which is very nice. However, the hospital is

Mount Everest

The Highest Garbage Dump in the World

Most people know that Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world. However,
there is another fact that many people don’t know: it has become one of the dirtiest
mountains in the world.

Mount Everest is one of the toughest and most exciting mountains to climb on Earth. It
is not the coldest or the windiest place on Earth, but it comes close! These challenges
make it one of the most attractive mountains for serious climbers. Since 1952, over 3500
climbers have reached the top. Unfortunately, most of them have left equipment and
trash on the mountain.

In fact, trash is now one of the biggest threats to the environment on Mount Everest.
Local organizations have brought tons of trash down from the mountain. One of the most
interesting projects handed over more than a ton of tin cans, glass bottles, and old
climbing tools to artists in Nepal. The artists used the trash to create works of art. Then,
they sold the art to raise money for local charities. The least expensive work of art cost
$17, and the most expensive one cost $2400.

Reading - Teenagers nowadays

Teenagers nowadays

Today’s teenagers are heavily addicted to their phones, and they don’t know their phone
numbers because they rarely make actual phone calls with them.
Teens care about usernames and apps, not phone numbers. When they meet someone new, they
don’t exchange their phone number; they exchange their Instagram handle or their Snap
username. They rarely even use iMessage or SMS because their parents can see this activity.
“Parents just don’t understand why we move from thing to thing so quickly. It’s not that we
have a short attention span, it is our generation’s ability to filter through information more
quickly because we just get bombarded with it so much,” said Shreyas, a high school senior.
Teenagers think Facebook is Lame. Even before recent controversies about Facebook’s
collection and use of data, teens today think Facebook is lame and something for their parents
and grandparents.
Teens use After School because they know that they are in a network with other teens from
their school, and they are able to connect and share anonymously. They’ve used anonymity to
share things they wouldn’t share on other networks — they’ll talk about difficult issues like
coming out, depression, and the stress of high school. Teens also love Snapchat “Snapstreaks”
and posting on Instagram. Many teens even set up a second Instagram account, which they call
a “Finsta.” Their first account is a public person, and the Finsta is a more unfiltered experience.
A. Read the text quickly, what is the main idea? Write just one sentence.

4. Teenagers think Instagram is better than Facebook.

5. Teenagers prefer to speak about difficult issues as anonym people.
True False
6. Teenagers tend to have two accounts in the same app for different experiences.
True False

C. Choose the right option.

1. Which apps are more used for teenagers:

Grammar - As … as / adverbs

Use

a noun or pronoun. If it is used as a conjunction, it will be followed by a clause.
→ In negative form the comparative as…as express a difference.
→ Structure
Subject + verb + as + adverb + as + object In negative we can use not

B. Read the text

Revolutionary devices

It's called the Apple Watch. It looks like a luxurious synthesis of technology and traditional timepiece
craftsmanship; it is very useful for someone who wants to use a "digital crown" to navigate through
lists and zoom in on data. The new Apple device starts at $350 and will be available early next year.
Six different bands will allow a wide degree of personal customization. "Taptic" feedback puts
pressure on your wrist for iPhone notifications, and can even send signals to turn left or right in the
watch's navigation app. And. Yes, this gadget requires an iPhone to work.

A tablet or tablet PC is a portable computer that uses a touchscreen as its primary input device. Most
tablets are slightly smaller and weigh less than the average laptop. While some tablets include fold-
out keyboards, others, such as the Apple iPad and Motorola Xoom, only offer touchscreen input. Since
tablet PCs provide a different interface than traditional computers, they offer unique possibilities for
graphics applications, games, and other programs. There are many people who prefer tablets because
they are small form factor, they are extremely portable, and can be easily stored in a backpack or a
briefcase.

A text message is an act of composing and sending electronic messages consisting of alphabetic and
numeric characters, between two or more users of mobile devices, desktops/laptops, or other types
of compatible computers. The term originally referred to messages sent using the Short Message
Service (SMS). It has grown beyond alphanumeric text to include multimedia messages using the
Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) containing digital images, videos, and sound content as well as
ideograms known as emojis (happy faces, sad faces, and other icons). Text messages are used for

Grammar - Relative Pronouns; Who, That, Which, Whose, Where and When

→ A relative pronoun is used to connect a clause or phrase to a noun or pronoun. The


clause modifies, or describes, the noun.
→ The relative pronouns are who, that, which, whose, where and when
→ Relative pronouns are placed directly after the noun or pronoun they modify.

→ For Example:
▪ The driver who uses the mobile phone while driving is careless.
▪ The book, which is online, has all the information you need.
▪ This is the iPad that everyone is talking about
▪ The hotel where we stayed was very small
▪ That was just the moment when we arrived
→ One of the most common mistakes in writing is to use the wrong relative pronoun,
particularly when it comes to mixing up "who" and "that". "Who" is always used to set
up a relative clause that describes a person, while "that" is used to describe an object
or another non-human being.
→ We use where to refer to places. It can only be omitted if it is accompanied by a
preposition.
→ We use when to refer to temporal notions. It can be omitted.
→ Whose indicates possession

For example:
▪ I like the girl who plays videogames.
▪ This is the agenda that you can connect to your phone.
▪ That's the park where I met her
▪ That's the date when I got sick
▪ Spaghetti, which we eat at least twice a week, is one of my family’s favorite meals.
▪ Jack, whose notebook I borrowed, is the best in the class.

LISTENING ADVICES

K. Listening gap fill

I
I don’t know what would without my friends’ advice. They’ve
all given me so much good advice over the years. It’s sometimes very
difficult to make decisions on your own. Listening to advice can be great
for helping you make the right decision. The greatest piece of advice
I’ve received was from my father. He told me I can do anything in life
if I try hard. He was right. I am now passing on his advice to my own
children. Right now, I need some advice on money. My financial
advisors are telling me to be very careful. That’s very sound advice
. I would advise anyone to do the same. Someone asked me the other
day about the worst piece of advice I’ve ever had. I couldn’t answer. I don’t
think I’ve had any really bad advice.

WRITING

Failure is part of life;if you don’t fail,you don’t learn, and if you don’t
