EXERCISE 1
And now let’s look at the weather today. Well, it’s bad in the west, but fine in the east. Let’s begin in the north west. In the north west, there’s a lot of fog this morning and it’s quite cold … so foggy and cold. Not a nice start to the day! But it’s lovely in the north east … it’s sunny and hot. The sky’s blue and there aren’t any clouds. So, a sunny, hot day for those of you in the north east.
Now, let’s come south … well, in the south west, it’s raining at the moment and it’s very windy, too, but it isn’t cold. Not a good day in the south west – wet and windy all day! But in the south east, it’s OK. It’s quite warm. It’s a bit cloudy there at the moment but it isn’t raining. So, warm and dry but sometimes cloudy in the south east.
EXERCISE 2

Sue: We got the half past seven train and we arrived in London at nine o’clock. First we had a drink at a coffee bar and then we went to the Science Museum by bus. Peter: Was the museum interesting?
Sue: Yes, it was fantastic! My mum and I loved the Apollo spaceships and lunar modules. And my dad liked the planes and steam engines. We were in the Museum for four hours. It was two o’clock when we came out and we were very hungry. So we went to an Italian restaurant and I had my favourite pizza. Then, of course, I wanted to go shopping!
Peter: Of course!!
Sue: I love the shops in London! I bought a red T-shirt, my mum bought a DVD and my dad bought some shoes! Peter: Was it late when you got home?

Modules 7 and 8
EXERCISE 1
My two favourite television programmes are a music programme and a soap. They’re both on TV on Tuesdays. The music programme is on first. It starts at quarter past seven and finishes at eight o’clock. The soap starts at half past eight and finishes at ten o’clock. The soap is a story about four families. They are all neighbours in the same street, in south London. My favourite character is Paul – he’s a teenage boy with two sisters. The music programme is very popular – all my friends watch it. There are usually six singers or groups in the programme and each singer or group sings about four songs. At the end of the programme some of the singers answer questions about their lives and their music. It’s really interesting. I love Tuesday evenings on television – it’s the best evening of the week. EXERCISE 2
Interviewer: Hello, Bob. Bob: Hello, Mrs Thomas.
Interviewer: I’m doing a survey about how young people and their families are helping the environment and also how they’re helping other people and animals. Can I ask you some questions? Bob: Sure.
Interviewer: Thank you. Let’s start with animals … do you help animals at all?
Bob: Well, I feed the birds every morning … I put bread and nuts on a bird table in our garden. The birds love it. And I take our dog for a walk every day when I come home from school. He likes to run in the park.
Interviewer: OK. Now, what about helping the environment? Bob: My parents and I walk and cycle a lot. I go to
school by bike every day. I never go by car. We try to save water at home, too. We usually have showers not baths and of course we always turn off the taps.
Interviewer: What about saving electricity?
Bob: Yes, we try and save electricity. We always turn off the lights when we go out of a room. Interviewer: Do you turn off the TV and the computer too? Bob: Yes, we do. We turn off the TV and the computer
when we aren’t using them. And we recycle a lot of things, too – for example, we recycle tins and glass bottles. And we recycle a lot of paper … you know, newspapers and magazines.
Interviewer: That’s great. Thank you very much. EXERCISE 3
This is a small animal with a large head and a round face. It’s got black eyes and big ears. It’s got strong legs and a long tail. It likes hot weather. It lives in Spain and it eats fruit. It can run fast – it runs about 90 kilometres an hour. It sleeps a lot. It sleeps about twelve hours a day.

Interviewer: Can you spell your surname? Peter: W Y A double T.
Interviewer: Thank you. Now, tell me about school. For example, what are your favourite subjects? Are there any subjects you don’t like? What school teams are you in?
Peter: Right. Well, my two favourite subjects are art and geography. I don’t like maths and history. I think maths is difficult and history is sometimes boring. I’m good at most sports, but I‘m not very good at gymnastics. I’m in two school teams – the volleyball team and the basketball team. Interviewer: Are you in any other school clubs or groups? Peter: Yes, I’m in the chess club and I’m in the theatre
group, too. We won a drama competition last term.
Interviewer: Congratulations! That’s great. Now what about your free time … what are your hobbies? Peter: I play the drums in a band at the Youth Club. And
I go horse riding on Saturday mornings. I love horses.
Interviewer: Right. Now, finally, tell me about your next holiday. Where are you going to go?
Peter: I’m going to go to Scotland with my parents and my sister, Maria. We’re going to go by car and we’re going to stay at a campsite. We’re going to do different activities. I’m going to go swimming every day and I’m going to go to the mountains – I love climbing. Maria is going to go horse-riding. She’s very excited about the holiday. My mum and dad are going to go sailing. Interviewer: I’m sure you’re going to have a great holiday,
Peter.

Nellie Bly’s real name was Elizabeth Jane Cochran. She was born in Pennsylvania, USA, in 1864. Her nickname was ‘Pink’ because her mother dressed her in very bright pink clothes. As a child, Pink loved telling stories. When she was eighteen, Pink got
her first job as a journalist for the Pittsburgh Dispatch. But there 1 a problem. The editor of the newspaper, George Madden, said she had to use a different name. He didn’t want his readers to be able to identify her. Mr Madden chose the name ‘Nellie Bly’. It was the title of a song written thirty-five years earlier. Nellie became a successful journalist. She believed in women’s rights and 2 articles about social problems and the terrible working conditions for women. In 1887, she joined the staff of the New York World newspaper. In 1888, the managers of the New York World were discussing the idea of sending a man around the world in less than eighty days. When Nellie
