Lesson 1

Moments I remember

Childhood memories: Read and listen what Andr Silva, a student from Brazil,

tells us about his childhood.

When my sister and I were younger, we used to fight a lot. My

parents, whom I love very much, always spanked us when the

fight was serious, and some of our fights were very serious. Once,

when we were fighting, she got a knife and ran to me.

During another fight, I hit her in the stomach with my knee. It took

a while for her to breathe normally again. We couldn't play any kind of game together

without fighting. Nowadays, we just scream at each other, but there are no fights.

We didn't always fight when we were younger. When we were getting along, weused to play at our grandmother's house, where there were many trees that we could

climb and sit in all day long. In front of my grandmother's house, there was a kind of park

where many children could go and play whatever they wanted to. We liked to play there.

My grandma was always telling us to get more like swimming, climbing trees, or

running around the park. My sister, whom I now love, and I never liked to do any kind of

exercise, so we were always finding excuses for us not to do it.

My grandma never believed us. Once, I didn't want to do what she told me to do,

and she locked me in the bathroom for two hours. After those two hours, she asked me

if I wanted to do it or if I would like to spend two more hours there. That was a funny

experience for me.

My Cats and Dogs

Olga Marek from RussiaWhen I was a child, I liked walking around the neighbourhood. I would leave

home and go to the yard which was in front of our house. I used to play with stray cats

and dogs. They didn't have owners and were always waiting for me in the street. I

trained them. We played games which could be called "teachers and students", "doctors

and patients", "sellers and buyers", "robbers and their leader", and so on.

Then, my mother forbade me to play with homeless cats and dogs. She was

shocked when I came home with "my friends" following me. She shouted at me, and I

swore that it would never happen again. However, she found me once again in my room

with my dogs playing a game: "the chorus and the orchestra."

The problem was that I didn't want to do anything but play the piano, play with the

animals, and hang around the streets. My mom was in despair. Then my Dad suggested

to buy me a dog and said that they would walk and play with me after their work. For my

part, I had to prepare my homework before they came home.

A: Where did you use to go on holiday when you were a child?

J ulia: Well, every year, my family used to rent a house for a month or three weeks. Itwas in a little village on the south coast called Angmering.

A: What was it like?

J ulia: We though it was wonderful. We used to take a train there, which was very

exciting. Although the weather was usually awful, we still used to swim every day, but I

remember that as soon as we came out of the sea, we had to put on a thick sweater and

jeans. The beach wasnt very nice, but we used to play with the stones, make

sandcastlesyou know, the usual things. Then in the afternoon we used to rush home

to watch TV. For us, it was one of the big attractions of the house, because back home

in London we didnt have TV. My father was against television at the time. He wanted

us to read more.

A: Do you think your parents used to enjoy the holidays?

J ulia: I dont really know. Ive never asked them. But I cant think of anything worse than

being on a cold beach with three young children!

Obligations

Anna is a teenager. She hates school. She is talking to her grandmother about

going to school. Listen to their dialogue.

Annas Granny: Hi Annie! Are you doing your homework?

Anna: Im trying butI hate doing homework but I have to do it.

Annas Granny: You have to study, my dear. Its very important for your future.

When I was a child, studying was very difficult.

Anna: Why was it difficult?

Annas Granny: I lived on a farm so I had to work hard. We got up very early,

then, we worked on the farm feeding the animals and working in the fields. If we

had time, we went to school and we studied.

Anna: Didnt you have to go to school?

Annas Granny: Yes, I did. We didnt have time to study, we worked a lot. I only

went to primary school because when I finished it, I got married to your

grandfather. At that time, I had to be a very good housewife.

Anna: Oh! Granny, so life when you were younger was much more difficult than

now.

Annas Granny: Yes, it was. Thats why you have to study, my dear. When you

finish high school you will be able to go to University.

Anna: Ok, Granny. I know I have to study but its really boring. I promise I will try

to do it better!

Do you remember when we use must?

Must (revision)

In general, "must" expresses personalobligation. "Must" expresses what the

speakerthinks is necessary.

I muststudy hard.

We also use it for strong pieces of advice.

You dont look very well. You mustgo to the doctor.

Look at the following sentences:

You have to study. (S. Present)

I live on a farm so I had to work hard. (S. Past)

Must vs have to

Both mustand have tocan be used to speak about obligation or necessity:

The doctor says I muststop smoking.

The doctor says I have tostop smoking.

This is only the case when we are referring to the present or future. When we

speak about obligation or necessity in the past, we use have to.

She had tostop running because she was exhausted.

I had topay a parking fine.

It is not possible to use mustin this way.

Mustand havetohave a similar meaning. They express necessity or obligation.

Butdo you remember when to use mustnt?

Must not vs not have toWhen used in the negative, mustand have tohave different meanings. Mustis

used to say that something is prohibited, while have tois used to express a lack of

obligation or necessity.

You mustn't cross the road here. (It is prohibited)

You don't have tocross the road here. (It's not necessary, i.e. you can stay on

this side and cross later).

You dont have topay for the tickets for the concert. They re free! (It is not

necessary to pay)

Lesson 3

Another brick in the wall

Read the following text:

At school for 17 hours a day.

Its 6.30 am and the sun has only just come up when the alarm clocks next to Jie

Suns bed ring simultaneously. She gets out of bed and goes to the kitchen. Her eyes

half closed, she hardly says a word while she eats breakfast. Next to the table, it is her

blue school bag which she packed the night before. It weights just over six kilos and a

half. At 7.00 am she says goodbye to her parents and sets off to her school, just outside

the capital city, Seoul. She returns home at 6.00 pm for dinner, but half an hour later

she leaves home again for a private academy where she studies for another four hours.

In a typical night she gets home at midnight and falls asleep, completely exhausted.

Studying for 17 hours a day is a fact of life for South Korean secondary school

students. They live in a society where education is very important, and there is great

competition for a place at university. Getting a good degree from a top university is the

only way to be sure of getting a professional well-paid job. The normal secondary

school day, as in most other countries, lasts eight hours. But after that, most parents

make their children stay at school for extra classes. In theory, these classes are

optional, but in practice they are compulsory. When the school day ends, the children

are not allowed to relax and enjoy themselves. Most of them have to study all eveningin libraries, with private tutors or at private academies.

Mdulo IV

Classes of 50 are not uncommon and the teachers are strict. Pupils have to

repeat after the teacher and memorise everything. Teachers at my school dont give

you any individual attention because they havent got time says Jie Sun. They dont

let us ask questions because they say it is wasted timeYoung people like Jie Sun have almost no social life. They rarely have time to

see their friends, and having a boyfriend or a girlfriend is unthinkable. This lifestyle may

seem very hard to many European school children, who are accustomed to going out

most weekends, and watching TV every evening. But on the other hand, in many

British schools, up to 40% of teenagers leave school with no qualifications and the

prospect of unemployment. So which system is really better?


Read the text again carefully and try to answer the following questions remembering

details about it.

1. What time does Jie Sun get up?

2. How much does her school bag weight?

3. Where is her school?

4. What time does she go to bed?

A business school with a difference:

University education is not enough for Japanese company managers. Today,

many companies like Nissan, Toyota and Sanyo send their managers on a 13-day

course wherefar from sitting at desks studyingthey are subjected to a harsh militarydiscipline which includes forced marches of up to 40 kilometres.

On a typical day, the businessmen, who are used to the comforts of the luxurious

office , have to get up at 4.30 am to do martial arts in their dormitory. They then have

writing and dictation test until 7 am when they are allowed to have breakfast. Work

starts again at 8, after 15 minutes to clean the dormitory. Among other things, they have

to learn to sing in public, to memorize up to 600 meaningless words and repeat them

without mistake, and to stand to attention every time an instructor enters the room. In

the marches, some of which take place at night, they are only allowed to take a torch,

water and rice.

I found it very hard at first says Akira Hashida, a junior sales manager. But

afterwards I was very happy. I felt much more self- confident. The courses are intended

to make the managers stronger both mentally and physically. At the end of the course,

companies receive a report on the strong and weak points of the people sent there, and

the managers who fail will never get promotedthey may even lose their jobs!

1) What kind of people are there courses for?

2) Which of the following do they nothave to do on the course?

Get up early

Go for long walks

Cook

Do karate

What do you think about education in Britain today?

Well, as in all things, theres a good side and a bad side. On the good side, I

think more young people are staying at school and then going on to university than ever

before. And exam results have also got better. Some people say that this is because

exams have got easier, but I dont agree.

On the bad side, well, there are still a lot of young people who leave school

without any qualifications at all, and thats terrible. Also, I think there are more

discipline problems than there used to be, especially with boys.

But the main problem is that there arent enough teachers, especially in some

A school practical task: What drives you crazy?

Jie Sun, the girl who goes to a boarding school in South Korea

has to prepare a special work for school. Lets see what she is working

on.

Invisible pollution

What do you think of when you hear the word pollution? Factories with blackchimneys, dirty rivers and beaches, piles of rubbish? But what many people dont

realise is that there is another kind of pollution you cant see but which affects us

all wherever we live, at any time of day or night, and which can make our lives

miserablenoise.

According to the Environmental Health Department, noise pollution is now

one of the worst problems in cities and towns. The 10 noises which most annoy

people in Britain are, in order:

1. Neighbours who make a lot of noise.

2. Building sites.

3. Shops or pubs where they play loud disco music.

4. Burglar or car alarms whose owners dont switch them off.

5. Noisy parties which go on until very late.

6. Roadwork.

7. Dogs which bark when people walk past the house or during the night.

8. Heavy traffic and drivers hooting.

9. People who play their car radios at full volume with the windows open.

10. Planes which fly low over towns and cities.
