Your cousin from the UK is taking part in a journalism workshop and wants to interview some young people
about their friends and family. Send an email to your cousin and suggest he/she should interview one of
your friends.
• Say how old the person is. Describe their appearance, and the clothes they usually wear.
• Mention some of their family members.
• Describe the positive aspects of their personality.
• Say why you think your cousin should interview this person.
/30

Writing
Can write straightforward, detailed descriptions on a range of familiar topics.
Sample answer
Hi Jess,
My friend’s name is George, and he’s fifteen years old. I’ve known him for about five years. He’s tall, and he’s
got brown eyes and lovely dark curly hair. He loves clothes and he’s usually well-dressed. He often wears jeans
with a T-shirt and a leather jacket.
George comes from a big family. He’s got one older brother and two younger sisters. George is very close to
his brother, and he usually gets on well with his sisters, but they sometimes argue!
George is very outgoing, and he’s got a great sense of humour. He’s also very imaginative, so he’s really
interesting to be with. I think that’s why he’s so popular. I think he’s also a very caring person and he’s always
keen to help his friends when they have problems.
I think you should interview George because he’s got lots of interesting stories about his family, and he’s also
got loads of friends he could talk about.
Write soon,
Love
Sara

Sample answer
On the edge of my seat
This was the moment I’d always dreamed about. I was finally sitting with a perfect view of the most famous
tennis court in the world. And Andy Murray, my idol, was about to play in the Wimbledon final.
I had travelled to London with two friends and we were all very excited. We’d seen Andy on TV but this was
the first time seeing him play in real life. We arrived very early to get our tickets. A lot of people were already
queuing for tickets when we arrived, but we were really lucky, and we got good seats quite near the front. It
was a really exciting match. Murray was losing for the first half of the match, but he suddenly started to play
much better. The crowd cheered every time he scored a point!
After nearly three hours, the match ended with Murray as the winner. However, I feel like the real winner
from that day. After the match, when my friends and I were leaving the court, Andy walked past us. ‘Andy’ I
called and surprisingly he stopped to chat to us. He was so kind and inspring that I’ve decided to take up tennis
myself, too.

Your friend from Ireland wanted to make a train journey across Europe by himself/herself, but his/her
parents didn't agree. Write an email to your friend and:
• express your opinion on travelling by train,

• say whether you think his/her parents’ concerns are justified and explain why,
• give him/her advice on the situation,
• invite him/her to visit your country during the summer holiday and suggest the most convenient date
for you.
Hi Tom,
I’ve heard about your plans to make a train journey across Europe.
Let me know what you think.
Write soon,
XYZ
/30

Writing
Can write a personal email giving advice.

Sample answer
Hey Pam,
Great to hear about your plans. Your life is so exciting at the moment. I’m back at uni and studying hard.
I can see why you’re unhappy. Travelling by train is great and I’m sure your trip will be fantastic, but have you
really thought about the dangers? Your bag could get stolen while you are sleeping, and it can be very
expensive to travel by train. I think your mum and dad think you’re too young to travel by yourself. They’re
afraid something bad could happen. On the other hand, I don’t agree with your parents. I think you’re old
enough to make your own decisions and mistakes. They can’t look after you forever.
If I were you, I’d write a list of all the things that could go wrong and think of a solution to each problem. Then
you can talk to your parents and present all your arguments. I’m sure that will make them feel much better.
By the way, can you visit Poland during the summer holidays? The beginning of July would be best for me.
I’m sure things will work out fine,

Sample answer
Dear Sir or Madam,
I saw your advert for the new show ‘Top Cook’ while on holiday in the UK. I am writing to enquire about the
show, as I am very interested in cooking, and would love to take part.
I have always been passionate about food. I am sixteen years old and still at school now, but next year I will
have finished school and I hope I will be studying at catering college. I spend a lot of time preparing food in my
spare time, and I enjoy serving food to friends and family. One of my favourite dishes is chicken curry. I use
good quality ingredients and add lots of spices to give it a delicious flavour.
Could you confirm where and when the show will take place? I would also be interested to know which chefs
will be involved in the show. Finally, could you please let me know how many people will be taking part?
I look forward to receiving your reply soon.
Yours faithfully,
Ana Diaz

Writing
Can write short, simple essays with basic structure on familiar topics.
Sample answer
Cities around the world suffer from high levels of pollution from factories and private cars. Some people think
that we could reduce pollution by banning private cars in cities, but others believe that this would cause
problems for many people.
On the one hand, there are several arguments for banning cars. First of all, some people use their cars even
when public transport is available. Some parents, for example, take their children to school by car rather than
using the school bus. Furthermore, many people drive cars alone, which is inefficient.
On the other hand, there are arguments against banning cars. Firstly, there are times when it is safer to use a
car, for example late at night, or if someone is ill and needs to go to hospital. Elderly people might also find it
difficult to use public transport, especially in the winter.
To sum up, there are arguments for and against this idea. I do not believe that cars should be banned, as this
would make life difficult for some people. However, I believe that we should encourage more people to use
public transport.

Sample answer
THE DOCTOR WILL SEE YOU NOW

‘Have you ever considered a career as a doctor?’ That’s what my science teacher asked me as I was trying to
decide what to study at university. I followed her advice and am now studying medicine, so I know exactly
what it takes to become a great doctor.
According to research there are a number of characteristics that help doctors succeed. Clearly, they need to be
excellent listeners and be able to show their patients that they understand how they feel. Naturally, they also
need to be great at communicating so there are no misunderstandings.
As well as this, national statistics show that the best doctors are able to stay calm, even in a crisis. Doctors
often need to reassure patients when they are frightened and make fast decisions about how to treat them.
Finally, experts agree that good doctors need to work hard and continue to learn even after they finish
university. Treatments and medicine are changing all the time, so doctors need to keep up with the latest
research.
So if you are wondering what to study and have some of these qualities, then a career as a doctor might be the
right one for you.

AUDITIONS
If you 0 were a major Hollywood movie star, you

would probably get a lot of offers and
everyone would ask you to appear in their
films. If you aren't a major star, you'll have to
go to auditions if you want to make
it in acting, and going to endless auditions is the
usual accompaniment to any actor’s early career.
An audition is like a job interview, so prepare for
it carefully. Dress nicely but simply, avoiding
extreme styles which might create a

from the people watching the auditions. – in fact,
don’t expect any criticism either. Directors and
producers need time to think, so they seldom
react during an audition. Generally, in the

whether you have done well or not, but don’t
worry about it. When you have finished the
audition, thank everyone for their time, go home

Writing
Can write a description of an event, a recent trip – real or imagined.
Sample answer
Monkey Business
Have you ever wondered how it feels to swing through the trees like a monkey? I can tell you how it feels. Last
month, to celebrate my birthday, I spent an amazing day with my friends at a forest adventure centre called
Go Ape in Sherwood Forest, near Nottingham. It was three hours of pure fun!
The location is beautiful, right in the middle of a forest. We could hear birds singing high above, and the sun
shining down through the leaves looked stunning. Then the excitement started. We had to climb up a ladder
to the top of a really tall tree. Then there was a series of tree-top challenges, like walking across rope ladders,
swinging on ropes, walking across tight ropes and whizzing along zip wires – all high up in the tree tops. Of
course, you have a safety harness on, so it isn’t really dangerous, but it’s still really thrilling – and scary!
The only thing I would suggest changing is that there should be a better restaurant at the centre. The food
wasn’t brilliant!
This is definitely a great day out for anyone who enjoys excitement. However, I wouldn’t recommend it to
anyone who’s scared of heights.

UNIT TEST 8
Writing
Name: ________________________________
Class: ________________________________
Total: _______/30
In your class, you have been talking about how to punish young people who commit minor crimes. Now
your teacher has asked you to write an essay titled ‘Prison is the best form of punishment for young people
who commit crimes’. Write your essay using all the notes below and give reasons for your point of view.
PRISON IS THE BEST FORM OF PUNISHMENT FOR YOUNG PEOPLE WHO COMMIT CRIMES.
Notes:
• the cost of prisons
• the effectiveness of other forms of punishment
• _____________ (your own idea)
• Write four clear paragraphs.

• Include detailed personal opinions.
• Give reasons and examples to support your arguments.
• End the essay with your conclusion.
/30

Writing
Can write short, simple essays with basic structure on familiar topics.
Can develop an argument at some length with supporting points and relevant examples.
Can use limited discourse devices to link sentences smoothly into connected discourse.
Sample answer
Many people think that prison is the best form of punishment for young criminals. They believe that these
young people need to be punished severely to prevent them from breaking the law again. However, in my
view other forms of punishment are much more effective.
Firstly, prison is expensive. It costs a lot of money to keep young offenders in prison. Moreover, if they are in
prison, they are also in contact with older criminals, and they may be tempted to continue with a life of crime.
In my opinion, it is much more effective to get the young people to work in their community to put right the
crimes they have committed. For example, if they have stolen something from a shop, they could work in that
shop to pay back the owner. As far as I am concerned, this is a far more useful and effective form of
punishment.
In summary, prison is expensive and possibly damaging to young people. I think it is better to arrange a
meaningful punishment for youngsters in their community. Then they will hopefully not commit more crimes
in the future.

Task 1
The students each have two photos.
Student A prompt: Your photographs show people doing different sports. I’d like you to compare the
photographs and say why you think the people are wearing special clothes to do sport.
Student B prompt: Your photographs show people doing different sports. I’d like you to compare the
photographs and say why you think it is important to have the right clothes for a sport.
Task 2
Students discuss the questions in pairs.
Prompt: Now discuss the questions in pairs.
Sample answers and mark schemes

Task 1
Can describe what is happening in a picture and make simple speculations.
Student A
The photographs are similar because they both show people doing sports. In the first photograph, the people
are doing snowboarding. I think they’re probably taking part in a competition, so they aren’t doing it just for
fun. Maybe they’re representing their country. In the second photograph, people are running. I think maybe
they’re taking part in a marathon, because they are wearing numbers and are running on the street. However,
they are all dressed as Father Christmas so they are probably raising money for charity. I think both pictures
show people who are serious about their sports, but the snowboarders are competing for themselves. The
runners want to do something to help others. The people in the first photograph are wearing clothes that are
suitable for their sport. They’re wearing a kind of warm suit because it must be cold in the mountains. They’ve
got thick gloves and special glasses to protect their eyes from the bright snow and sun. So their special clothes
are practical. In the second photograph, the special clothes are just for fun. They are probably hot as the
clothes look warm but it’s a sunny day. I don’t think they will help the runners to do well. Actually, they might
make it more difficult to run. I think the photograph of the runners looks more fun. I’d like to take part in an
event like this.
Student B
The photographs both show people doing sports. In the first photograph, the people are doing cycling. I think
they might be taking part in a race, because they look quite serious. Maybe they’re representing their club, or
their country. It could be a big race like the Tour de France. A lot of people are watching the event. In the
second photograph, people are doing karate. I think maybe it’s a competition, because there’s a referee. They
look quite serious. These photographs are quite similar because they both show people doing a sport
seriously, and taking part in a competition. But in the first photograph the people are part of a team, whereas
in the second photograph the people are competing individually. I prefer team sports, because I think it’s more
fun to be a part of a team. I think it’s important to have the right clothes for a sport because the right clothes
can help you to do well. For example, with cycling the clothes are very thin and tight, so they help you to go
faster. It might be dangerous to wear very loose clothes on a bike. The cyclists are also wearing helmets for
safety. In karate, the clothes are loose and comfortable, so you can move around easily and also take hold of
your opponent’s clothes. This means it won’t hurt if your opponent takes hold of you, because they will just
grab your clothes, not your skin. So you can’t really do these sports well if you don’t have the right clothes.

Task 2
Can briefly give reasons and explanations for opinions, plans and actions.
Students A and B
1 I think for some sports it’s more important than for others. For example, if you are snowboarding or skiing,
you need clothes that are light and warm. You can’t go into the mountains just in normal clothes. But I don’t
think it is important to have the right clothes to do other sports, like cycling or running. For example, you can
do cycling or running in just a pair of shorts and a T-shirt. But it’s probably important to have the right shoes,
otherwise you could get an injury. So, maybe it’s important to have the right clothes for safety, but not to help
you perform better.
2 Yes, I think some people spend too much money on fashionable clothes for sports. For example, some
people who play football spend a lot of money on fashionable football boots, when these won’t really help
them to play better. Some sports clothes are very expensive, especially if they have the name of a famous
sports star on them. I think it’s silly to spend a lot of money on these clothes.
3 Personally, I don’t think it’s important to look good when you are doing a sport. Sport is for exercise and
your health. It isn’t a fashion show. But I guess for some people it might be important, for example if they
aren’t very confident it might be important for them to look good so they can feel confident, even if they
aren’t very good at their sport.
4 I think the advantages are that people can see you easily. For example, in a marathon there are often a lot of
runners, so if you’re wearing an amusing costume your family and friends can see you easily and cheer for you.
Also, if you want to advertise a charity, it can be a good way to get attention if you look funny. On the other
hand, the disadvantage could be that it’s difficult to run in your costume, and it could be very hot too.

Unlike most marathons, you can’t drive or take a
train to the start of the race. It takes around two

uphill. Due to altitude sickness, many competitors

metres at the start, the air is so thin that running,
even downhill, feels much more difficult than
running at sea level. To train the body to function in
these conditions, some runners decide to sleep in
altitude tents. These are specially designed to
reduce the amount of oxygen which causes the body
to create more red blood cells. Sleeping in a tent like
this for two weeks before a race is a great way to
increase your endurance.
Unlike most marathons, you can’t drive or take a
train to the start of the race. It takes around two
weeks to trek to the start point, and much of this is
uphill. Due to altitude sickness, many competitors
don’t even make it to the start line. However, the

Sample answer
Hi John,
I’d like to tell you how I met my best friend Sam. It was three years ago, during the summer holidays, and I was
at the tennis club near my home. I was having my first tennis lesson, and I wasn’t doing very well! I’d decided
to take up tennis because I wanted a sport to play in the summer. Joe was having a lesson on the court next to
me. I could see that he was a very good player.
Joe was tall and well-built, with dark curly hair. He looked very easy-going and I could see that he had a good
sense of humour because he was laughing a lot. I liked him because he was sporty, like me, and he looked
friendly.
After my lesson he invited me to have a game of tennis with him. He won, of course, but we laughed a lot and
got on very well. Since then we’ve been playing tennis together regularly, and we’re now best friends.
Write soon,
Paul

Task 2
Students A and B
1 I think the most important thing in a restaurant is obviously the food. It must be tasty, of course, and it
should also be interesting and a bit different. The price is important, too, and there must be a good
atmosphere, so people can feel relaxed and enjoy their meal. So it shouldn’t be too noisy or stressful. I think
it’s nice to have some music in the background, something relaxing.
2 This is a difficult question. Of course, a lot of people eat unhealthy food and it isn’t good for them, but I don’t
really think it’s the responsibility of restaurants to make that decision for people. A restaurant is a business,
and it has to make money, so it has to serve food that people like. Maybe it’s different with children. If the
restaurant serves food to children, I think they should perhaps make more effort to offer only healthy food.
3 Yes, in my opinion all young people should learn to cook. This is very important, because if you can’t cook,
you can’t eat healthy food. For example, if you can’t cook, you will eat burgers and pizzas all the time. These
aren’t good for you because they aren’t fresh. I think all young people should learn about food and cooking at
school, so they know how to prepare healthy meals and they understand why it is important to eat the right
foods.
4 I think that nowadays more and more people are becoming vegetarians, and a lot of restaurants offer
vegetarian options already. I think probably it’s good for restaurants to serve vegetarian food because then
they will attract more customers. But if they don’t want to offer this food, I don’t think they should have to.
Some restaurants might choose to just serve meat or fish, and I think they should be free to do this. Then it’s
up to customers if they want to go to this restaurant or not.

Sample answer
Dear Sir or Madam,
I saw your advert asking for restaurant reviews while on holiday in the UK. I am writing to tell you about a
restaurant I visited, and also to ask for more information about the competition.
Last summer I had a wonderful meal in a restaurant in York, in the north of England. The restaurant was on a
boat on the river. It was a lovely evening and we arrived at seven o’clock. The food was delicious. I love spicy
food, so I had fish curry with rice. The waiters were all very friendly, too. The best thing was that we ate our
food while we were floating down the river. It was so relaxing! I’m not sure what it would be like in the rain,
though!
Could you confirm how many reviews you intend to publish and which restaurants the free meals will be
available in? I would also be interested to know if you intend to run similar competitions in the future. I will be
staying in the UK again next month, and I’m sure I will visit some more restaurants.
Yours faithfully,
Stella Cruz

Task1
The students will discuss some different options and reach a decision together.
Prompt: Look at the diagram and read the instructions. Then discuss the questions together. Remember, you
must agree which of the things it would be best for the school to do.
Task 2
1 Do you think that young people care about their health enough? Why? / Why not?

3 People are living much longer now. What are the advantages and disadvantages of this?

Task 1
Can express opinions as regards possible solutions, giving brief reasons and explanations.
Students A and B
A: Let’s start with this one – offering lessons on healthy living. I think this would be useful because a lot of
young people don’t really understand how to stay healthy. For example, they don’t know how much exercise
they should do each week. What do you think?
B: I agree with you. Also a lot of young people smoke, so maybe they don’t understand the dangers of doing
that.
A: What about the idea of free sports clubs? I think it would be a good idea because it would encourage
more students to take up a sport. Do you agree?
B: Yes. I think it’s fun to do sports with your friends, so it would definitely help more students to join in. Also,
if the clubs are just for fun, not too serious, there wouldn’t be any pressure on students to do well, so they
would learn just to enjoy doing sport. What about the idea of first aid?
A: I guess it’s useful for everyone to learn about first aid. What do you think?
B: Well, I’m not sure how good it would be for young people. The problem with it is that if something serious
happens, like if someone has an accident, I think it’s probably best to call an ambulance, not try to give first aid
yourself.
A: Yes, you’re right. In my opinion, cookery lessons would be a good idea because they would teach young
people how to make healthy meals, and it would encourage them to eat proper food rather than junk food.
B: Yes, I completely agree. I also think that serving only healthy food in the canteen would be a very good
idea. A lot of people have things like chips and fizzy drinks every day, and this will have a very bad effect on
their health in the future. Do you agree?
A: Yes, I agree. Also, a lot of young people don’t have very healthy food at home, so it would be good for
them to have a healthy meal every day. I think the school should show students that healthy food is tasty as
well as good for you.
B: So, I think the best idea would be lessons on healthy living, because that includes all the other ideas.
A: I’m not so sure. The problem with that is that it’s just another lesson. Maybe sports clubs would be the
best thing because they encourage young people to be more active. Maybe the sports teachers could also talk
to students about healthy food, while they’re training.
B: Yes, you’re right. Let’s go for free sports clubs.

Task2
Students A and B
1 I think that some young people care about their health, and make an effort to eat healthy food and do
exercise. However, some young people aren’t concerned about their health. For example, some young people
smoke, or do dangerous sports without the proper equipment. I think maybe they don’t believe they might get
injuries. There’s also a lot of pressure on young people to eat unhealthy foods. For example, fast food
restaurants are popular with young people because they’re cheap and fashionable.
2 This is a difficult question. Of course, if someone does a dangerous sport and gets an injury, it can cost a lot
to give them treatment. Also, it might be dangerous for other people to rescue them. If people are climbing a
mountain, for example, and they fall and get a serious injury, other people have to risk their lives to rescue
them. So, maybe for this reason they should pay. But on the other hand, even normal sports can be
dangerous. For example you could fall off your bike and break your arm or leg. So perhaps we should treat
everyone the same and say that treatment should be free for everyone.
3 Well, the advantages are obviously that it’s good to enjoy life for longer. For young people, it’s good because
they can spend more time with their grandparents. In the past, people often died quite young, so young
people didn’t know their grandparents very well. On the other hand, a lot of old people don’t have a good
quality of life, so then they might continue to live but maybe they don’t enjoy their life very much.
4 This is an interesting question. On the one hand if unhealthy foods cost more then maybe some people
would buy them less but, on the other hand, it would be a very unpopular decision and the government might
not want to do this because it would make them unpopular. Personally, I think it would be a good idea.

Teacher’s notes
Task 1
The students each have two photos.
Student A prompt: Your photographs show different kinds of crimes. I’d like you to compare the photographs
and say what effect you think these crimes might have on the people who suffer from them.
Student B prompt: Your photographs show different kinds of crimes. I’d like to you compare the photographs
and say which crime you think is more serious, and why.
Task 2
Students discuss the options in pairs.
Prompt: Now I’d like you to talk about something together. I’d like you to look at the different ways in which
young people who commit crimes can be punished or helped. Which of these ideas might be the most useful
for the young people?
Task 3
Students discuss the questions in pairs. Select any of the following questions, as appropriate.
1 What happens to young people who commit crimes in your country?
2 Some people say that young people who commit crimes should always go to prison. Do you agree? Why? /
Why not?
3 What can schools do to help prevent young people becoming involved in crimes?
4 What facilities can towns and cities provide to help young people?
5 In some countries, parents are considered responsible if their children commit crimes. Do you think this is a
good idea? Why? / Why not?
Prompts: Select any of the following prompts, as appropriate, to encourage both students to participate:
• What do you think?
• Do you agree?
• And you?

Task 1
Can describe what is happening in a picture and make simple speculations.
Can justify and sustain views clearly by providing relevant explanations and arguments.
Student A
The photographs are similar because they both show crimes. In the first photograph, someone has written or
drawn on the walls of a building. I think it’s in a big city because it doesn’t look like the countryside, and I think
these kinds of crimes are more common in cities. I suppose a young person might have done this because they
were bored. The second photograph shows someone stealing a mobile phone. I think this person is probably
committing this crime to get money. They’re probably going to sell the phone to someone else. The person
whose phone is being stolen hasn’t noticed yet but when they find out I expect they will be shocked. I think I
would be very shocked if this happened to me. One difference between the photographs is that vandalism
isn’t a crime against a person. It is damage to a building or other place, whereas stealing something is a crime
against a person. I think that stealing someone’s phone would have a much bigger effect on a person because
it would be annoying to lose your phone, and it would also cost money to replace it. So, this crime perhaps has
more effect. On the other hand, vandalism has an effect on a lot of people because it makes the city look
unpleasant, so then people won’t want to live there. Also, no one will clean it off, so it will probably be there
for a long time. I think it could make people feel depressed if they see this every day.

Speaking
Student B
The photographs both show crimes, and I think they are both crimes that young people might commit. In the
first photograph, someone is stealing a pair of jeans from a shop – they are hiding them under their jacket. I
think probably a lot of young people do this, and they don’t think it’s a very serious crime. I guess perhaps
they’re doing it for fun, or to have a laugh. They probably think that the shop has plenty of money. But I think
it is quite serious because if a lot of people steal things from shops, the prices will increase. The second
photograph shows vandalism. The bus stop has been damaged, so now people won’t be able to use it
properly. I think that’s really annoying. I guess it was probably done by young people, maybe because they had
nothing to do. They probably didn’t think about the effects of what they were doing. In my opinion, both these
crimes are serious. Stealing is always bad, and I think people have to learn that if they want something they
should buy it – they can’t just take it. On the other hand, damaging things is a really mean crime because it
prevents a lot of people from using things that have been provided for them or from enjoying a place in their
neighbourhood.
Task 2
Can justify a viewpoint on a topical issue by discussing pros and cons of various options.
Students A and B
A I think that young people who commit crimes definitely need help. What do you think?
B Yes, I agree with you. I think maybe they commit crimes because they’ve got problems, so I don’t think that
prison will really help them much. Do you agree?
A Yes, I do. Prison would take them away from their school and their family, and I don’t think that would help
them to learn. I think education is a really good idea.
B Yes, I agree. If young people are educated, they can get a good job and then they won’t need to commit
crimes. I’m not sure about a job, though. If they don’t have any qualifications, it wouldn’t be a very interesting
job, so they might get bored and commit more crimes. What do you think?
A Yes, but on the other hand they would have money so they wouldn’t have to steal things.
B Yes, that’s true. What do you think about meeting their victims? Do you think that could be useful?
A Yes, sometimes. For example, if someone has stolen something from someone, it could be good for them
to meet the victim and understand how upsetting it was for them. For example, maybe they stole some
jewellery that was important to the person.
A Yes, that’s true. It could help them to understand the effects of their crime. And what about emotional
support?
B Yes, I think that probably a lot of young people who commit crimes have problems, for example maybe they
don’t have parents who understand them.
A I think you’re right. I think that it can really help to have someone to talk to and discuss your problems with.
So, which do you think is the most useful idea? For me, it would be education or emotional support.
B I agree that they’re both useful, but I think probably education is the most useful because it can give young
people opportunities for their whole life.
A Yes, I agree.

Speaking
Task 3
Can express opinions as regards possible solutions, giving brief reasons and explanations.
Can develop an argument well enough to be followed without difficulty most of the time.
Students A and B
1 What happens to young people who commit crimes in your country?
Young people who commit crimes in my country don’t usually go to prison. Sometimes they might have to
do some work in the community, for example cleaning or helping at a youth centre. If it’s a serious crime,
they might go to a special school. I think that’s a good idea for serious crimes, but I think for minor crimes
it’s best for them to do some community service, maybe to help the victims of their crime.
2 Some people say that young people who commit crimes should always go to prison. Do you agree? Why? /
Why not?
Well, on the one hand it’s important to punish young people who commit crimes, so that they learn it’s
wrong and they won’t do it again. On the other hand, I don’t think prison is a good idea. If young people are
in prison, they can’t go to school so they can’t get a good education. Then they will be more likely to commit
more crimes in the future. I think it’s best to punish young people in the community.
3 What can schools do to help prevent young people becoming involved in crimes?
I think schools can discuss crimes with young people, so they can understand why crimes are wrong. For
example, some teenagers might think it’s fun to steal from shops, and they might not think about the
effects of their crimes. Schools can discuss this. Also, schools can help to give young people interests and
hobbies, so they don’t get bored and commit crimes because they have nothing to do.
4 What facilities can towns and cities provide to help young people?
I think towns and cities can provide youth clubs for young people. These are a great place for young people
to meet their friends and have fun. Also, it’s important to have places outside where young people can go,
like parks and sports centres. Maybe cities could make things like cinemas cheaper for young people,
because often young people don’t have much money. That would be good.
5 In some countries, parents are considered responsible if their children commit crimes. Do you think this is
a good idea? Why? / Why not?
No, in my opinion this isn’t a good idea. I think that young people need to accept that if they do something
wrong, it’s their responsibility. Of course, parents have a duty to educate their children and teach them how
to behave, but I think that teenagers are old enough to make decisions for themselves. So, if they do
something wrong, they should be punished.

Sample answers
Task 1
Can write an ‘opinion’ essay.
Does the winner take it all?

We live in an extremely competitive world with many teenagers feeling stressed and unhappy if they are
not successful at everthing they do. This is especially true for sport, with most people only focussing on
being the best. In my view, this is an extremely dangerous and incorrect attitude.
To begin with, I believe that we should participate in sports for pleasure. For instance, I love playing football
and enjoy many aspects of the game such as spending time with my friends, being out in the fresh air and
feeling myself getting stronger and more skilled. Winning is not the most important part. If I felt bad every
time my team lost a match, I would have given up the sport a long time ago.
Secondly, it’s unrealistic to believe you can win all the time. Even famous sportsmen and women have to
deal with losing. Moreover, I think that losing helps you to improve. It’s a good opportunity to think about
what you did well, and what you can do better next time.
Lastly, learning how to be a good loser is an important lesson for other aspects of life. When teenagers grow
up, they will have to cope in stressful jobs and it doesn’t always help to be competitive. Sometimes you
need to be able to admit you’re wrong.
In summary, although it feels good to win from time to time, I don’t believe that winning should be the main
goal for teenagers taking part in sports. After all, it’s having fun that counts.
Task 2
Can develop an argument at some length with supporting points and relevant examples.
Friends, fitness and fun!
We all know that young people should do more exercise. So what can be done to get them to move away from
their computer screens and smart phones, put on their trainers and get down to their local sports centre? In
my opinion, the most important thing is to make it fun! There need to be things at the sports centre which will
make them think: Wow! I don’t want to miss that!
One idea would be to set up a special fitness club for young people. They could then go along to meet other
people and make new friends. A nice, relaxed coffee bar at the centre would be good too, so there’s
somewhere for people to sit and relax after they’ve done their sport. Finally, I think there should be lots of fun
events like football tournaments or tennis competitions, so young people can enjoy taking part, and maybe
even winning something!
To sum up, in order to lead healthier lifestyles, young people should be encouraged to go to various sport
centres where they can meet their friends, get fit and have fun! Then they would have the motivation to do
more exercise.
