My neighborhood
My neighborhood is very peaceful and quiet. It is a new neighborhood, and there are a lot of big
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
quite far. It is in the city, and we have to drive 30 minutes to get there.

Mount Everest
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
leastexpensiveworkofartcost
$17, and the most expensive one cost $2400.

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
iMessageorSMSbecausetheirparentscanseethisactivity.
“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 anduse
ofdata,teenstodaythinkFacebookislameandsomethingfortheirparents 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 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
→ A relative pronoun is used to connect aclause or phrase toanoun orpronoun. 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
describesa person,while"that"isusedtodescribeanobject 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.

you feel a little better, you should do a little exercise to reactivate movement, you

THE EFFECTS OF STRESS
READING
There are numerous physical effects of stress. Stress can affect the
heart. It can increase the pulse rate, make the heart miss beats, and can cause high blood
pressure. Stress can affect the respiratory system. It can lead to asthma. It can cause a person
to breathe too fast, resulting in a loss of important carbon dioxide. Stress can affect the
stomach. It can cause stomach aches and problems digesting food.
Emotions are also easily affected by stress. People suffering from stress often feel anxious.
They may have panic attacks. They may feel tired all the time. When people are under
stress,theyoftenoverreacttolittleproblems.
Long-term stress can lead to a variety of serious mental illnesses. Depression, an extreme
feeling of sadness and hopelessness, can be the result of continued and increasing
stress. Alcoholism and other addictions often develop as a result of overuse of alcohol
or drugs to try to relievestress. Eatingdisorders, suchas anorexia, aresometimes caused
by stress and are often made worse by stress. If stress is allowed to continue, then one's
mental health is put at risk.
It is obvious that stress is a serious problem. It attacks the body. It affects the emotions.
Untreated, it may eventually result in mental illness. Stress has a great influence on the
health and well-being of our bodies, our feelings, and our minds. So, reduce stress: stop
youractivities, relax andrest forawhile

D. Lookat the jobs. Doyou think a robot could do these jobs? Why or why not?

Howlikelyisitthatyou’llloseyourjobtoarobot? According
to Toby Walsh, a professor of Artificial Intelligence, it’s
hard to think of a job that a computer won’t be able to
do. There are already some factories where all the
work is done by robots, and there will certainly be
more in the future. But what about teachers, engineers,
and electricians? A team at Oxford University studied 350
different professions and suggested that 35 percent of UK
jobs might go to robots in the next 20 years. In particular,
work that is repetitive1 or involves handling small
objects will be at risk of automation.2 On the other hand,
jobs that involve helping other people or having original
ideas will probably always need people. So journalists,
nurses, engineers, and teachers won’t be at risk, but
clerical workers and telemarketers may not be so lucky.
The Oxford study gives the probability for each of the
350 jobs. Electricians (65 percent) are more at risk than
taxi drivers (57 percent). One global taxi company says
driverless taxis will be on every street corner
eventually. However, a spokesperson for London taxi
drivers isn’t convinced. “It won’t happen. Driverless cars
will never be able to work on roads at the same time as
normal vehicles.”

chimes so traditional in Spain are more than short in Japan. At 00:00 on January 1, Japanese temples ring
their bells 108 times. The Buddhist tradition assures that in this way the 108 worldly desires that cause
suffering are purified. After the ringing, the Japanese toast with amazake, a hot liquor very appropriate for

I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and
the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the
heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression will be transformed into an oasis of
freedom and justice.
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will
not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream
today.
I have a dream that one day down in Alabama with its vicious racists, with its governor
having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, one day right down
in Alabama little Black boys and Black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys
and white girls as sisters and brothers. I have a dream today.
I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall
be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made
straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.
This is our hope. This is the faith that I go back to the South with. With this faith, we
will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith we will be
able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of
brotherhood. With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle
together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free
one day.
5) Do you agree with Martin Luther King about his thoughts? Why? Why not?
