Hi Pam,
Greetings from Vancouver. How are you? I hope you're well.
We are enjoying the good weather. Here, the sun is shining. At the moment, we are having a drink at a
cafe. I usually ask for a cup of coffee, but today I'm drinking ginger ale. Janet doesn't like coffee. She
never drinks coffee. She's having apple juice. Mark is at home preparing lunch. It's his turn to cook.
He's preparing some salad and hamburgers for our barbecue.
I can't wait to see Vancouver's Convention Center. It has six acres of grass growing on the roof, and
from its windows you can see Stanley Park and the North Shore Mountains in one direction and
downtown Vancouver in the other. How fantastic!

I always take the train to work. At the station, I go to the

ticket machine to buy my train ticket. It's easy. I select my
destination, insert the money and then I take my ticket.
On the ticket, you can see the seat number.
There are also ticket oces where you can buy your ticket.
I avoid them at rush hour because there is always a line up.
After that, I look at the departure screen for the track
number. I can also see if my train is delayed or on time.
While I'm waiting for the train, I sometimes buy a crossword
at the kiosk.

New York
New York in one day What can you see? What can you do?
I recommend Grand Central. When you walk into this old station, it's like a black and white photograph coming
to life. This terminal is busier than the other terminals so watch out for people in a hurry. You can also go jogging
or bike-riding in Central Park.
If you like art, then I suggest the MET (Metropolitan Museum of Art), the Whitney or the Guggenheim.
The Whitney is closer to Central Park and has more works by younger and less-well-known American artists.
Then have dinner at a restaurant around the livelier Times Square.

If you want the "tourist option", then go to the top of the Empire State Building. It's higher than the Bank of America
Tower. Then take the ferry to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.
If you like shopping, you can choose the cheaper option and go to Soho, or the more expensive option to Fift h Avenue.
Then, why not use the subway to see New York's multicultural neighborhoods, Chinatown and Little Italy?

Describing experiences and feelings
At an amusement park , you can go on many rides , such as the rollercoaster and the ferris wheel.
On the rollercoaster ride, there were many people screaming. It was fun and at the same time frightening .
The ferris wheel was quite boring and slow .
I put on some scuba-diving gear , such as my wetsuit, my scuba tank and my mask. I watched the sharks
go around me. It wasn't dangerous because I was in a cage.
Seals are funny . They make the public laugh a lot.
The playground was fun for the kids. They had a great time!
The scary dive coaster takes you up 250 feet.
When I got off, my legs were like jelly. I couldn't stand up.
It was tough because we had to climb so many stairs, but in the end we had a wonderful time.
Yesterday evening, we all went to the spa for a relaxing hot stone massage.
Making comparisons
Picasso, van Gogh and Monet are some examples of well-known artists . They're all famous.
New York has some multicultural neighborhoods, such as Chinatown and Little Italy.
How about doing something more exciting , like seeing the island by bike?
Well, it's hotter today than yesterday, so I think the beach option is better .
The indoor playground for the twins had 24-hour supervision, so it was safe .
Modern cars are safer than old cars.
We always go to work by car, it's more convenient than with the bus.
It's worse on the ferry than on the hovercraft. The ferry is always crowded and slow.
This terminal is busier than the other terminals.
The hovercraft is faster than the ferry.
Stingray City is farther than Seven Mile Beach.
It's worse than I thought.
Stingrays are less dangerous than sharks.

Base-jumping is a sport in which a person parachutes from fixed objects, such as high buildings, cliffs, etc.
Whitewater rafting is a sport of rafting down fast-flowing rivers, especially over rapids.
Heliskiing is an extreme sport . A helicopter takes you to remote mountains and you ski there.
Dangerous sports are linked to the most serious injuries to your body.
A car racer needs the best sports car.
A racing yacht needs the most competent crew.
An amateur mountaineer needs to be trained by the most experienced guide.
Going to the spa is relaxing. Fishing and listening to music are the cheapest and easiest things to do.
Today was my worst day ever. It was terrible from the moment I got up.
Some people think fishing is the least fun . They think it's a boring activity.

and where shall we meet? I can pick you up if you want. If you don't have time on Friday, please let me
know. I am also free on Saturday. By the way, can I have your number?
Tom
Hi Tom,
It's great to hear from you. Yes, I'd love to have dinner. I'm busy on Friday, but Saturday is OK with me. Shall
we meet downtown near the central train station at about 7:00 p.m.?
By the way, my phone number is 067-876-5448.
So, I'll see you on Saturday at 7:00 p.m., then.

Shall we meet at the Thai 144 restaurant?

Yes, that's a good idea.
Are you walking or taking your car?
I'm taking my car. Can you tell me the way?
Of course. It's easy. Go along Jameson Road and go through the tunnel. When you come out of
the tunnel, turn left. Drive over the bridge. At the intersection, turn right. Go past the first traffic
lights. At the first circle, take the third exit. Go straight ahead for about half a mile. The
restaurant is at the end of the street. You can't miss it.
Umm. I think I've got it.
Here's my cell number just in case: 073-328-3769.
Great! I'll see you in an hour.
See you soon. Bye.

Subject: My stay in Liverpool
Attachment:
Hello Soraya,
I'm so excited. As you know, I'm traveling to Liverpool on Friday. Your sister invited me to spend
Saturday with her and the children. I'm staying at the Hilton for two nights. I'm meeting them
Saturday morning at the Glenrose Mall. We're having lunch at her house. She promised to cook
chicken and mushroom pie for me. Her closest friends are joining us for coffee, I'm happy to meet
them. After that, I'm taking the subway downtown to see the wax museum.
I don't know what I'm doing on Sunday, so I'm sending you some pictures of the local tourist
attractions I downloaded from the Internet. Can you help me decide? I'm catching my light at 8:00
p.m., so I have the whole day to sightsee.
Well, that's all for now. See you when I return from Liverpool.
James

The Tech Museum of Innovation is in San Jose in the

middle of Silicon Valley, California. There are three
floors in the museum, and there is something to do
on each one.
Before entering the museum, you receive a Tech Tag.
A Tech Tag is something that records your progress
on the exhibits. In the museum, there are also a lot of
volunteer stations where volunteers explain the
exhibits. For the children, there's nothing more
exciting than designing their own rollercoaster. How? By sitting in a seat and watching
it on the big screen. You ride in open cars, and it travels at a high speed going up and
down. Anyone can do it, and anything is possible.

24.1 Reading
For those
people who
travel, buying
souvenirs is a
MUST. You can
buy them for
yourself, for
your friends or
your family.
I like giving postcards or

magnets as souvenirs.
They're easy and light to
pack. They are also "safe"
souvenirs because you know
where to put them:
Postcards go in an album or
a scrapbook, and magnets
are for the fridge. This way,
you avoid hearing, 'Put this
here' or 'Put that there'.
When I went to the Mediterranean, I

collected seashells. Now, they're in my
living room. When people visit, I tell them
where they are from: 'These are from
Turkey, and those are from Cyprus'.
My husband and I visited Ecuador. There were so

many interesting and cheap fabrics. So we bought
some. Now we are trying to decide where we should
put them in our house. Finally, I decided to call my
friend. She's an interior decorator: 'You can put
these ones on the wall. Those over there, you can
use to make scarves. And this one, well, this one
you can give to me!'

Dear Joseph,
Greetings from the Caribbean Sea. We're having a 1 good/terrible time aboard the Tropicana
cruise ship. The ship is 2 ugly/amazing . There's a 3 fun/boring video arcade for Taylor and an
indoor playground for the twins with 24-hour supervision, so it's 4 dangerous/safe . On the top
deck of the ship, Marissa and I prefer the waterslides. At first, it was 5 tough/easy because we had
to climb so many stairs, but in the end we had a wonderful time. Taylor didn't want to go on the
waterslides, because they were high and 6 fun/scary .
Yesterday evening, we all went to the spa for a 7 frightening/relaxing hot stone massage. It was
8 great/bad . During the massage, I had an excellent idea. When we return from holidays, I'm
buying an electric massage chair for the whole family.
Best regards,

Part A Read the text giving tips for receiving and being a guest. Then decide if the
sentences are true or false.
When someone offers you dinner at their place, you have two options: To accept or refuse the
invitation. To accept, simply say, "Thank you. That would be nice." But if you prefer to say no, then
I'd recommend "Perhaps another time" or "That's kind of you to offer, but no thank you."
If you are welcoming guests into your home, greet them at the front door and use the expression
"Welcome to our home." You can also use "So glad you could come." If you are more familiar with
your guests then ask "Shall I take your coats?". When the host enters a room, always hold open the
door for the guests, and say "After you."
Before smoking, you should always ask others near you, "Do you mind if I smoke?" If someone
responds, "Not at all", then go ahead and smoke.

Dear Peter,
I have some great news. Natasha and I are going to Europe for a whole month. Guess where?
To Italy. We're leaving on August 2. We're staying at a fabulous hotel next to a subway station
in Rome. We wanted to rent a car, but in the end decided not to.
I'm going to relax and enjoy as much as I can. We're coming back on September 3, and I have
lots of plans. In the evenings, I'm going to take a cooking course. Then, I'm going to study to
pass the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT). I want to become a doctor. Yes, I know
doctors have to work long hours but at least they don't have to travel a lot.
Oh, I almost forgot! On September 28, we're having a barbecue to celebrate Natasha's birthday
and you are invited.
Hope to see you there!
All the best,
James

Sleep for about forty-five minutes, read for

have a snack and enjoy the scenery. If you're

We all know how to buy a TV. Just go to the
shop, find a good deal and pay for it. But good
deals don't always mean good quality. So make
sure you ask yourself a couple of questions
before you buy your TV set.
How wide is the TV set? How high is it? How
heavy is it? Do you need a TV stand, or do you
want to hang the TV? How far do you need to
sit from a 32-inch LCD TV? The distance you
sit from it is four to five feet. Do you want a
plasma TV or an LCD TV? LCDs weigh less
and look great in light rooms. How big is your
room? Could you give some information on the
picture quality? Could you give some
information on the TV's audio quality? Does it
consume a lot of power?

Is it possible to watch live TV on your tablet?

Of course it is.
Can you show me how to do it?
All right, then. First of all, you need to
switch on your tablet. Buy a stand for your
tablet. You can use it to hold your tablet like
a picture frame. Then, open your Internet
browser and go to the website.
OK then. What's next?
The next thing is to sign up. Don't worry. It's
all free.
That's good to know.
Now, can you see where it says "TV
channels"?
Yes.
Click on that and select the channel you
want to see. Be careful. Don't double-click.

So, you see, it was quite easy to do.
Remember the battery lasts for ten hours. If
you want to watch TV all day, don't forget to
charge the battery.

I'm twenty-five years old.
Interviewer: How much time did you spend at

Alice:
I spent two hours.
Interviewer: Is this your first time?
Alice:
This is my fourth time.
Interviewer: OK. What was your favorite ride?
Alice:
It was the ferris wheel.
Interviewer: Did you go on the rollercoaster?
Alice:
Yes. The first three times I came to
the amusement park, I stood and
watched it. It looked fun and
frightening. My boyfriend told me
if I didn't go on it, I would regret it.

Yes, the fourth time, I got on. I sat

Sure. This scary dive coaster takes

was exciting.
It's probably expensive, but it's more

Absolutely. Sports are for everyone.
But is talent enough? What about money?
Yes, talent and money are important. A race
car driver needs the best sports car, a racing
yacht needs the most competent crew, and
an amateur mountaineer needs to be trained
by the most experienced guide.
In your opinion, what are the most
dangerous and frightening sports?
Let's see Bull-riding, wing-suit flying,
base jumping, whitewater rafting, heliskiing,
cave diving and big-wave surfing. In my
opinion, dangerous sports are linked to the
most serious injuries.
What is the most relaxing thing to do on the
weekend?
Possibly going to the spa, fishing or listening
to music. They are also the cheapest and
easiest things to do. Some people think
fishing is the most boring outdoor activity.
Well fishing is just fishing not catching.

Zorbing originated in New Zealand, and now
it's very popular in other countries. Four
months ago, I found a brochure for Zorbing.
The idea of entering a large inflatable globe and
letting someone push it down the hill seemed
very exciting. I thought this new experience
could be interesting and fun. Building up the
courage was the most difficult.
Inside the globe, you find a bench, a harness, an
ankle strap and hand-holds all the necessary
safety equipment. Other safety measures
included the age and the weight. No one
younger than eight years old was allowed to
ride, and the weight limit was 285 pounds.
You have two options to choose from: The wet
ride and the dry ride. The wet ride is more

I'm also starting a computer class in the

my father and I are having an outdoor party to

Simon: OK. What can you do if a moose is

them, they stop chasing you.
Simon: So, Canada is not an option. I heard
there aren't any snakes in Italy. Is this
true? You know I'm afraid of snakes.

But my life also has its difficulties. During the
summer, you wake up very early. Then you
answer phone calls from guests in panic:
"There's a frog in our bathroom." So you get up,
get dressed and then go and remove the killer
frog from their bathroom. At two o'clock in the
morning, you receive the next phone call: "A
bee stung me" or "I found a scorpion and it bit
me." So you get up again and call the doctor.
Then you search for the scorpion and the bee.
Finally, you find both one you step on and the

You know, Peter, I love the ocean
and I have a PADI open-water
diver license. I'm a qualified scuba
diver. I also have a secretarial
qualification and speak four
languages. So, I decided to
combine business with pleasure.

Well, I welcome guests
enthusiastically and calmly help
them with any problems. I also
answer the phone, take messages
and inform the guests adequately.

course on scuba diving before
safely entering the hotel, as it's
located twenty-one feet
underwater. They can also arrive
by submarine or by train. There is
an underground tunnel to the
hotel.

Harry: What do you think about the Japanese
transportation network?
Oko: The train is very efficient especially
between the large cities.
Harry: How can you describe it?
Oko: Well, it's punctual, popular, and the
service is great.
Harry: What is the best way to travel?
Oko: By train. We also have night trains and
Shinkansen which are called bullet
trains.
Harry: What about flying?
Oko: Yes, planes are great for international
travel. Japan has three international
airports. The most important one is
Tokyo's Narita Airport. Almost all
major airlines and airports offer flights
to Japan.
Harry: How about the bus service?
Oko: You have short-distance buses and
highway buses for longer distances.
These buses link cities. Taking the bus is
the more economical way to get around.
Travel takes longer because of heavy
traffic, but fares are cheaper than
Shinkansen train fares.
Harry: How about traveling inside of Tokyo?
Oko: You can use the bus or the subway.
There are subways in all major cities
and they are efficient.
Harry: Can I rent a car in Japan?
Oko: Yes, but don't forget cars drive on the
left-hand side of the road, so be
prepared.
Harry: How can I travel between Okinawahonto and Tokyo?
Oko: You can go by plane or by ferry. If you
go by ferry, there are six departures per
month, and the trip takes about fortyfour hours.

Have you ever been to London?

Yes, I have.
How did you arrive?
Well, I live in Luxembourg, so I have a lot of
options to choose from. I can take a plane,
the car, the bus, the train and the ferry. The
first time I went, I wanted to experience
traveling through the tunnel under the
English Channel. But we first stopped in
Paris to visit some friends.
Did you take the train to Paris?
No, I took my car. I decided to do so because
of the inflexible train timetables and because
our friends in Paris have a garage.
How did you get to London from Paris?
We all took the train to Coquelles. From
there, it was only a 35-minute train ride
through the tunnel. Finally we arrived in
Folkestone, England.
Do you prefer the train or crossing the
Channel by ferry?
Train journeys are quicker and more
exciting. You don't have to worry about
driving or getting seasick.
What did you do when you arrived inside
the city center?
We spent the day shopping and sightseeing.
Then we returned to Paris on the same day,
in time for dinner.

Kenith:
Why should we buy Fairtrade

products?
Because the money goes to
farmers. The people who produce
Fairtrade goods need help so they
can have better homes and
working conditions.
What does it mean to be "Fairtrade
certified"?
It means farmers are paid a fair
price per pound of coffee. Fair pay
is offered for the goods and for the
farmers. Profits are given back to
the community where the product
is made in the form of a new
building, school or other projects.
The environment is also helped by
the sales of fair products.
What is the focus of Fairtrade?

Fairtrade is focused on exports

Is Fairtrade coffee available in the
USA?
It's available in a lot of countries.
This coffee is also sold in every
Starbucks.
Do children also work on the
coffee plantations?
No, children are protected by
Fairtrade.
And my last question: Does buying
Fairtrade products make a
difference?
Yes, it does. It guarantees that
families get enough to eat.

A: Do you think scientists will have a cure for
cancer and AIDS in the future?
B: I hope so.
A: Do you think smart phones will replace

B: No, I don't think so. I think the smart phone
screen and keyboard are too small.
A: Do you think people will create clones in the
future?
B: I hope not. The idea is too scary.
A: What do you think will happen in the
future?
B: I think we will use a lot of solar energy to
heat our smart homes. Most homes will also
have a robot. I think Toyota will launch a
flying car with an iris scanner instead of a
key, and I think Sony will create a paperthin TV. I don't think books will exist in the
future. I think computer tablets will soon
replace all those big old textbooks and
change the future of education. It won't be
necessary to carry heavy books or CDROMs in your bags anymore. Yes, the world
will soon see the result of many innovations

A: I'm having a hard time deciding what I want
to do for the rest of my life. I am interested
in computers, programming, graphic design
and web design. My friends tell me that I
should also consider a combination of
marketing, business and IT studies. But I
don't know what courses to take, and if I
should consider taking business and
marketing.
B: You say you are interested in programming,
graphic and web design. To study this, you
should major in Computer Science. Then
you can get a job as a programmer or web
designer. This is the first step. After a few
years of experience, you can study project
management, or you can go back to school
and do an MS in Information Systems or an
MBA. You can decide later on. First, get
some work experience. This will help you
with your choices.
