About the ехаm:
lп the exam, you have to read а text and answer six
multiple-choice questions. Each question has fou1
options tо choose from. Опlу опе option is correct.
Strategy:
. Read the four possible answers for each question
carefully.
. Scan the text quickly to find the information you need
and underline the part of the text where you think the
апSWеr lS.
. Then rеаd the section mоrе carefu|ly iп order to find
which option is correct.
. RеmеmЬеr that the words iп the question and the
words in the text mау Ье different. NЛаkе sure you
identify words in the text which mеап the same as the
.
question.
Make sure уоu know why the oth'er options аrе not
correct (e.g. it mау Ье true but thёдехt doesn't say it;
the text says the opposite;the text SayS it but it does
not answer the question).
fl looKat the picture.What is а holiday rep?
Пеаd the title of the article.What kind of
В
- information do уоч thinkwill Ье included?
ý Пеаd the whole article quickly and answer the
questions.
1 What sort of people is the job of holiday rер not
suitable for?
2 How old do you пееd to Ье to have а job like this?
Apart from English, which other languages аrе
mentioned iп the article?
Where сап you find advertisements for jobs as а
holiday rep?
5 What do holiday companies glve their reps frее?
6 what hotel facilities are mentioned in the article?
Р Пеаа the whole article. Fоr questions 1-6,
choose the answer (А or В) which уоч think
fits best according to the text.
According to Angela, what is the most important
quality fоr а holiday rер?
А having а confident personality
, В enjoying responsibility
Angela uses the examples of Frапсе and South
America to show us that holiday reps
А have to Ье flexible.
В have to work long hours.
Angela was surprised to get hеr job as а holiday rep
because she
А опlу had а basic travel qualification.
В could опIу speak опе language.
ln the second paragraph, Angela says that she
А hadn't travelled а lot iп her free time.
в didn't know much about other countries.
Angeta says that in ап interview you should
А make yourself sound better than you аrе.
В Ье honest about what you know.
What does Апgеlа like most about being а holiday
А
rер?
meeting people frоm different places
В getting free access to facilities
ý ЬооК at the phrasal verbs underlined in the
article and decide which meaning (А or В) is
cIosest to the mеапiп9 in the article.

у паmеЪ Angela and l'm а holiday rер,
l love my job and itЪ the best way to
make friends with people from all очеr
the world. Holiday reps are responsible
for making sure that the customer has а fantastic
holiday. As а rep, you represent the holiday
соmрапу уоu'rе working for, so above eveфhing
else, you have to Ье friendly, sociable and believe
iп уоursе|f. You also have to Ье able to deal with
all kinds of situations and if уоu'rе impatient or like
regular working hours then this isn't the job for you!
lп addition, you have to Ье ready to go anywhere iп
the world - you don't get to choose where you wоrk.
Fоr example, опе month you might Ье in the south
of Frапсе and the пехt in south Аmеriса!
You need to Ье at least eighteen to Ьесоmе а rер
and althoL.igh formal qualifications aren't necessary,
getting а basic certificate in travel and tourism (|ike
l did)willalways Ье usefu| because thеrеЪ а lot of
competition for jobs. ltЪ поt as easy as you might
think to get а job in the travel industry. ltЪ helpful if
you сап speak other languages, especially Frепсh
оr Spanish. l опlу speak English, so l didn't rеаllу
expect to get а job - but l did! lt helps if you travel
а lot yourself too. l didn't have much chance to do
that Ьеfоrе l became а rер, though l do have а good
knowledge of where places аrе iп the world.
So you want
tObe а
holiday гер?
Read 0п aaa
There are а few ways you сап find wоrk as а
holiday rер. Newspapers and travel magazines
often advertise positions. Апd don't forget the
internet, which is рrоЬаЬlу the most useful source of
information ! Travel companies send out application
forms to people who аrе interested iп working for
them - read the form carefully and make sure уоur
application stands оut. lf уоu do get ап interview,
remember, you must апswеr questions truthfu|ly -
you'l| quickly get found out if you pretend you сап
speak Greek or аrе familiar with а country you've
never еvеп heard ofl Опе thing you should avoid
is saying you want the job to get frее ho|idays! lt
sounds silly but you'd Ье surprised Ьу how mапу
people actually say that.
There аrе lots of cool things about being а holiday
rер. The рау isn't the best in the world but iп my
opinion the benefits of the job аrе worth far more
than the рау packet. You get to see some amazing
places and the people аrе fantastic - I keep iп touch
with а lot of the customers I look after. The nightlife
with the other reps and customers сап Ье fun too, if
you get оп with theml You get free accommodation
as а rер. Don't Ье too excited about this - I'm
staying iп а tent in my current job, which isn't the ]
most comforlable р|асе to stay! You also get а
uniform but the greatest thing of all for me is that you
get to use the facilities iп the rеsоrt уоu'rе working at
- brilliant if there's а swimming pool or tennis coutls
because you don't have to рау to use them.

Several scientists were conducting а survey of the shark

animals are known to jump out of the water

Schrёder poured water over the shark to keep it alive,
and the crew tied а rope round the shark's tail. А second

and then lowered back into the water.
Though the shark swam away it was чпаЬ|е to find its way
out of the harbour and soon ended up оп the beach. With
Oceans Research's co-director, Enrico Сеппаri, an ехреrt оп

animal. Finally, they used ropes to pull it through the hаrЬоur
and back out to sea. The ropes were then removed and

all speculation,' he said, 'But sometimes
а shark jumps out of the water when it feels

ln this case, both scientists апd shark had а паrrоw

о you, like mе, have а dгав-еt
somewhere at hоmе full of
different bits of rubbish rтhicb
you think might соmе in hапdу some
day? If so, thе story of Canadian
internet entrepreneur Куlе MacDonald
mау inspire you to take а closer look at
what is hiding among thе old pieces of
рареr and bits of string.
А few years ago, Куlе set out оп в,hаt
seemed at tbe time а ridiculous апd
imроssiЫе project - to trade а single rеd
paper clip fоr а house. Не advertised tЫs
almost worthless item on the internet
апd succeeded in swapping it for bigger
and better things, Twelve months and
thirteen swaps lаtец hе аппоuпсеd that
his final deal had got him а рrореrtу,
а two-storey fаrmhоusе in Kipling,
Saskatcbewan. rýТ__l It certainly
turned out to Ье mоrе than that!
Kyle graduated with а degree in
gеоgrарhу before travelling thе world.
Не did odd iobs - from delivering
pizzas to wоrkiпg on oil rigs. One day,
hе received ап email frоm ап old friend
reminding him of а gаmе c/r|ed Bigger
апd Better whiсh they hаd played as
children. In this game, you started with
small objects and competed to see what
you could trade them for. MacDonald
fiпishеd reading the email, glanced down
at Ыs desk and saw а red рареr clip.
ГzТ__l And so а Strange and brilliant
idea was Ьоrп.
Не wrоtе down this ambition. 'I'm
going to keep trading up until I get а
house,' hе wrote. His first offer was а
реп in the shape of а fish. This was soon
exchanged fоr а doorknob with а smiley
face and thе doorknob, in turn, for ап
оutdооr,too,e. ГТlГ__l It was, hе says,
'just а great way tо meet пеw people'.
In this, hе did hаче some hеlр. His
fatber, ап enthusiastic iпчепtоц hаd
соmе uр with а new idea for restaurant
tаЫеs. MacDonald travelled
America and canada to advertise his
father's product, Оп thе way, hе would
stop off to meet the реорlе who'd
contacted him on his website and who
hе wanted to do business with оп his
paper clip proiect. IýýГl
As news of the website spread,
MacDonald hаd to сhооsе between
hundreds of offers for еасh item hе
advertised but hе says their financial
value was irrelevant. Кýý__-l Kyle
continued to trade up. His trades
included ап арреаrапсе оп ТV, some
time in а recording studio, ап afternoon
with the rock star Alice Соореr and а
small rоlе in а film. Finally he got his
house.
Kyle tгiеs to explain his success.
'People might think this is ап odd way
tо spend your timе but rеmеmЬеr thаt

д Imost all of us wапl to lose а kilo 0г two ог decide
f\to ut sоmе time during оuг tlчеЁ. But eating less and
doing mоге ехегсisе seem чегу sensible соmрагеd with
some of the wеiгd diets of lhe past few сепtuгiеs. Неге
аге some of Ihe cгaziest.
The 'chewing diet' was invented Ьу а mап called
Ногасе Flеtсhег and was рорulаг duгing the еагIу
twentieth сепtuгу. F'letcher believed that chewing
al]owed food to Ье ргорегlу аЬsоrЬеd iпtо the body. То
implement the chewing diet, а регsоп must chew each
bite очег З2 times - which takes арргохimаtеlу З0
seconds рег bite. It's а fascinating thеогу and thеге
may арреаr to Ье some геаSOп t0 this diet. I'm almost
tempted to have а go - but suгеlу it only wоrks because
it's so Ьоriпg that you eat less!
If уоuг food looks hоrгiЬlе, уоu'ге less likely to eat it.
That's what people who be]ieve iп the 'vision diet' say,
anyway. The idea is to wеаг blue glasses while уоu'ге
eating s0 that уOur food ]ooks disgusting, Why blue? Blue
food doesn't оссuг often in the wild and plants that аге
blue аrе Often pOiSOnOus - thегеfоrе fOOd that'S blue in
соlоuг doesn't l00k vегу inviting. Uпsuгргisiпglу, this
diet doesn't геаllу wогk and while some might еп]оу
the attenti0n they rесеiVе while sitting in а геStаuгапt
wеаriпg blue glasses, t0 do s0 fог long регiоds could
actually have а negative impact 0п уоur vision.
If уоu'ге shоwегiпg ечегу day, you might as well lose
weight while doing it, гight? Well, that'S the lhеоrу behind
Aoqili diet soaps. These special soaps contain seaweed
that Will get thгough уоuг skin апd Ьгеаk down fat. Does
it wоrk? While thеrе mау lэе evidence that seaweed
Ьгеаks down fat when you eat it,, thеге's по evidence fог
it wогkiпg when washing and sоmе people who've tгiеd
it have been аllегgiс to the soaps, which made theiг skin
46
itch.Isn't it thеir orln fault lог beliering such а silly idea
in the fiгst place?
The 'cotton ball diet'. I'd say that this has t0 Ье one оf
the mOst dапgегоus diets fOг уоuг body and it's difficult
t0 understand how it ечег Ьесаmе ечеп Slightly рорulаг.
The thеогу is thai eating cotton balls - similаг lo lhe
ones you clean уоuг face with - ргечепts you wanting to
eat anything fattening. This diet might Ье lоц, in саlогiеs
(which would usually keep the weight off) but it's пOt only
drу and disgusting - ii can also cause mаjог damage to
уоur body - which makes it vегу iггеsрOпsiЬlе to ргOmоtе
such а diet.
The thеоrу behind the 'bl00d type diet' is that ечегу
blood type has а set of foods that аге suiied to it.
Тhегеfоге, say suрроrtегs of this diet, if уоu eat ассOгdiпg
t0 уоur blood lype, you'll lose weight. S0, а регSOп With
type А blood should Ье чеgеtагiап and а реrsоп with
type 0 should avoid eating сегеа1 0г wheat, while type
В can fill up 0п сгеаm and y0ghurts. ThiS diet mау Seem

foods, fог example, dOсtOгS Say y0u might Ье eating fOOd
that could cause уOuг lэоdу sегiоus рrоЬlеms.
LaSt but n0t least, We соmе tO the 'caveman diet',
which регhарs makes morе sense than any of the оthег
wеird ideas. This diet is based on what, cavemen ate
10,000 уеаrs ago, which mеапs only eating food that
could Ье hunted ог picked locally - including meat, fish,
vegetables, fгuit and nuts. But, while 1 could ргоЬаЬlу
mапаgе With0ut them, fог sоmе it must Ье difficult to
avoid tasty things like Ьгеаd, dаiгу ргOduсts, salt,, sugаг
ог oils. The conclusion? This diet isn't dапgегоus апd you
can still eat Out at, rеstаurапts оп steak and salad, buI

As humans we аге obsessed with the
futuгe and this is геflесtеd in films
which predict what, futuге society
and technology will Ье like. It's eas1
enough to laugh at old sci-fi films but
mапу contained details which ргоr,еd
to Ье an ассuгаtе ргеdiсtiоп of life to
сOmе. Let's take а quick look at опе
ог two frоm the last few decacles.
Forbidden Р]апеt, а science fiction
film released in 1956, was the fiгst
film that was set, in space anсl was
one of the fiгst of the mоdегп sci-fi
films that predicted life iп the futuге.

film follows the life of iпsurапсе
salesman, Тгumап Вuгьапk, who
does поt at fiгst геаlisе that he is
the focus of а геаlitу TV show which
is Ьгоаdсаst to mil]ions of people

which саmе out in 2002. While most
0f the film'S pгedictions haven't
сOmе tгuе (yet), in one scene of this
рOрulаг film, the main сhагасtег is
seen walking thгOugh а shopping

А memorable performance!
We asked four
readers about the best
реrfоrrпапсеs they'u е sееп.
д Donna
I love going out to the theatTe
and I епiоч all tvpes of sholTs.
from comedy to musicals and
dramas, It's the whole thing,
getting dressed up and looНng
forwaTd to it. Also, it's Ьгilliапt
being part of an audience. \Ъu
can feel the atmosphere and
see hоw diffeTent people геасt
to what's on the stage. Live
performances аrе so much berreT
than fi]m оr Т\- fоr ше. Ilhink
one of the best реrfоrmапсеs
I've ечеr seen \гаs during а play
called SftodotL,laпds. The рlа1. is
about С s Lerгis. the mап rтhо
wTote the Narnia ЬооЬ - _vou
knorr,, Tlze Liоп, the \\-itch апd
the Wardrobe? Не fell in 1ove
with ап AmeTican poet called
Joy Gresham but shе died quite
young and hе was hеап-Ьrоkеп.
Both the main characters \yere
wonderful but the асtгеss
playTng Joy was suреrЬ.
в ]*lartin
I was only а tеепаgеr - about
fourteen, I think - when I rvent
with the family to see thе musical,
Les Miserables in London. It's set
at а particular time in Frапсе but
the stоrу is imaginary. The show
lvas paTt of а day trip and we'd
spent the morning going round
the sights, so we wеrе pretty
tiTed Ьч mid-afternoon, which is
when we saw the peTformance.
It was а matinee but the theatre
was completely full. I wasn't
paTticularly into the theatTe at
that time! But that реrfоrmапсе
Teally changed my opinion. It was
magnificent. Fтоm the opening
moments of the show to the final
song - I couldn't take mу eyes off
the stage. I've been back to see
it again and again since then. I
was particularly impTessed Ьу
the male singer who was the
lead, Jean Vаljеап * his voice
was amazingly poweTful. And at
the end ечеrуопе stood up and
clapped and cheered fоr ages.
с Ке[[у
А lot of people think that talent
shows оп the ТV don't really
produce good singers but I
definitely don't agTee. I always
choose my favourite and then I
vote for them every Saturday! А not а very sensitive реrsоп and
couple of years back, mу favourite
was а young male singeT called
Matt Саrdlе. I rеmеmЬеr hе
wоrе а hat and looked а bit like
mу cousin, Billy. I thought hе had
а gTeat voice. Не went оп to win
the TV show, which was gTeat.
Then, foT а suTpTise Christmas
pTesent, mу mum paid foT mе
and my best friend to go to see
the singeTs frоm the show when
they went on tour. Matt sang
'The fiTst time ever I saw youT
face', а song that Roberta Flack
had sung а long time ago and I
cried. I'll never forget how much
it moved me,
D }lary
It sounds odd but one of the most
mеmоrаЬIе performances I've
seen wasn't Ьу а person but а
dog! It was а film made from а
book I had read, ca||ed Marley
апd Me.It was а real stоrу about
а journalist who gets а dog that
is really badly behaved. Most of
the book is very funny but the
ending is really sad. WЪеп they
made the film, I knew I had to
see it but I was а bit wоrriеd
about how I'd feel at the end.
Well - the film was good, mostly
very funny with some clever dog
acting Ьut at the end the dog
playing Marley was perfect. I'm
I don't normally сrу at the end of
sad films but I did with this опе!
I don't believe anyone could sit
through that film and NOT сту.
It's impossible.

blue апd yellolT f]ag - а Ьrапсh of
the super сhаiп store.IKEA.
IKEA. for those rчhо mai, still Ье
unawale of its global significance,
is а Swedish furniture соmрапу
that has mоrе thап З00 stores in
38 different countries. Started Ьу
Ingvar Kamprad iп 194З. it is now

so, what are the rеаsопs behind
IКЕАSЪ success? Undoubtedly one
is the fact that most of the furniture
items that IKEA sells are in flat
packs, ready for people to build
themselves. (а.......... . .,
the idea of selling furniture this way
was to reduce the епеrgу costs of
place
transport. Flat packs take uр much
less space thап big tables and
bookcases апd itъ better for the
environment too.
In addition to this, IKEA try to
mаkе the shopping experience as
It was enjoyable and stress free as possible
for all involved.(3) . . .... And
when you've finished shopping (in
mу case, absolutely exhausted),
having spent much mоrе than уоu

chips in the cafeterial
Апоthеr rеаsоп for the stоrеъ
success is its very clever in-store
desipn. (4) You start оп
the top flооr and follow а one way
system that takes you past а rапgе
of furniture and accessories for
ечеrу type of rооm. So, if уоu'rе
looking for а пеw bed, you have to
go past the kitchens, dining rooms
and living rооms first! If you kпоw

confusing if,like me,you try to fiпd
а short cut to where you're going
апd епd up [ost, passing the same
Ноwечец sofas and chairs again and again!
Those meatballs iп the cafeteria аrе
defi nitely well-earned.
Having relaxed in the cafeteria,
you are поw ready to mоvе
downstairs. First, you pass through
the area where you pick up your
flat packs. If уоu mапаgе to survive
the crowds of people struggling to
push trolleys filled with awkward
packs of furniture, you rеасh the
queues for the checkouts. There
уоu start to worry that mауЬе,

Venetian Masquerade
Last mопth Liz Ford put оп а mаsk апd set off fоr Carnevale, Иепlсе's popular mid-wiпtеr festival.

At carnival time iп ltaly's watery ciý, wearing а mask арреаrs to Ье а compulsory part of the uпifоrm. So, when l
attended the carnival last month with my friend, Asha, we decided it was something that we too had to put оп. We
browsed the stal|s |ining the streets selling what has Ьесоmе the symbol of the carniva|. But as there were literally
hundreds to choose from, it didn't make for ап easy decision апd l wasn't satisfied until l had finally settled оп опе with
а few decorative feathers and was ready to take part iп the festivities.

The people of Vепiсе have Ьееп сеlеЬrаtiпg Саrпеvаlе since the fifteenth century. lп those days, parties were arranged
whеrе rich and poor alike hid their identity behind masks and danced the nights away to forget the difficulties of winter.
The tradition gradually faded away until, in 1979, it was brought back to life, becoming опе of the world's most popular
festivals. Today, however, фrпе of the сiýЪ residents complain that the carnival is nothing compared to its former self,
and is purely geared towards bringing iп mопеу.

The festivities begin with La Festa delle Маriе, а parade through the city and а taste of what is to come. Throughout the
following days, guests attend fabulous masked balls, where they mingle with others, watch acrobats and altists and
13 dine оп delightful food and drink - the carnival is truly а feast for the senses. The highlight of the festival is without doubt
the Grand Masked Ball, located iп а beautiful palace and а chance to show off your knowledge of Venetian traditions,
such as performing the steps of the ancient quadrilles dances. That won't Ье me, then!

Му friend, Asha and I spent our days in Venice exploring the паrrоw waterways, hidden shops and саfбs. The bustling
crowds апd раф atmosphere were electri{ying but without doubt the highlight of our trip was dressing for а special
dinner оп our final night. We put оп оur masks, hired dresses and no longer felt out of place with the other раф-gоеrs,
We boarded the boat at St Markb Ьау, lit Ьу street lamps. As the gondola swept up canals past ancient buildings iп the
shadows of night, l noticed ап аir of mystery that hadn't been revealed during daylight. Somebody оп board passed
around sparklers and we waved the fiery sticks at onlookers as we passed under bridges. Putting оп а mask makes
you ап instant hit at carnival time.

Leaving the boat iп San Ро|о we headed for dinner. Walking into the candlelit restaurant was like stepping back in time.
More than 50 people wеrе a|ready seated, every face hidden behind а mask, just as they would have Ьееп centuries
ago. At first, l found it difficult talking to people l couldn't see рrореrlу, though l soon started enjoying myself. The
entertainment, provided Ьу modern dancers, wasn't quite of the еrа the feast was meant to represent. But the food
was superb and the setting magnificent.

After our mеаl, Asha and l went out into the busy streets again and found оur way to aiazz Ьаr which, though it played
mоrе popular music than jazz, was the ideal place to finish off our stay iп Vепiсе. As dawn broke, the party carried оп,
but we sadly made оur way towards Ihe vaporetto, the Venetian waterbus which all too quickly carried us along the
сапаls towards the аirроd for our mоrпiпg flight back to London. We fina|ly took off оur masks - the party was очеr for
mе and Asha - but l hope we'll Ье back next уеаr.

Look at portraits of climbers returning from the summit
of Everest; |ook at the triumph оп their faces. Yes, they
also look tired. The combination of sun, wind and cold
has rоughепеd their skin and they wi|l Ье dehydrated.
More than апуопе, they understand the risks involved
and they look relieved to Ье back on firm ground.
The truth is that the thought of standing оп the highest
point of the earth (8,840m) is а dream for many climbers,
аlопе, 338 people reached the summit, some of them
with little mountaineering ехреriепсе.
lп rесепt years, for various reasons, the chances
of climbing the peak successfully have improved
considerably. Тhеrе аrе several rеаsопs for this. Firýlу,
То climb оп Everest is to walk through history, myth and
legend. The achievement of Hillary, Tenzing and team
making the first ascent iп 1953, is well-known to all of
us, but the real rоmапсе and mystery is reserved for
the story of George Mallory and Andrew lrvine in 1924,
The two mеп were attempting Everest from Tibet via the
North Col. Ж-__l
Every climber has а view оп the fate of Mallory and
lrvine, оп whether оr поt they reached the summit. lп
1999, American alpinist Conrad Anker found Malloryb
body on the north side of Everest, but without his
саmеrа. Ж___l His partner lrvine's body has never
ьееп recovered.
The normal route uр Everest, via the South Col, is not а
technically difficult climb Ьу tоdауЪ standards, but it still
commands respect. lп 1996, а single storm killed eight
people and it made no difference whether they were
iпехреriепсеd mountaineers оr sherpas. ln the spring of
2009, five people died оп the mountain. Mountaineers
have to accept the risks involved and put iп place
strategies to reduce these risks, ЖГ_l
Fоr many, climbing Everest will Ье considered pointless,
but its attraction will never die,
ýЖГ_l То climb any mountain is to take а risk. lf

human beings had always played safe, we'd all Ье sitting

above 8,000m оп Everest, almost everyone breathes
iп caves, living like animals. Perhaps George Mallory

high is part of the hчmап desire

boundaries'
с The last kпоwп sighting of them
was оп 8th June, through а gap
in the clouds, just а few hundred
metres from the summit.
Е Good ones go bravely into the
mountains, not blindly.

with the risk and loss associated
with mountain climbing, clearly this
is not what motivates mountaineers
themselves.

 Dealing with life's problems!
А Rчппiпg
Most of us are aware of the physical benefits of
running, but equally as important for our well-
being are the mental effects - increased clariý of
thought, stress relief, etc. When We are running,
endorphins are released which give our Spirits а
definite lift апd send the blood to the Ьrаiп which
makes it easier to think clearly. How to rчп well,
though? А good tip is to watch ап eight-year-old
girl running. Running robotically оп а treadmill with
а blasting МР3 player, as so mапу of us do today,
is not going to get those happy hormones buzzing.
Lеаrп from the child - the steps are springy, the
foot gets off the floor quickly апd comes down
lightly. Тчпе in to your feet and not the МР3 player.
9_-
В Slеерiпg
Сопсеrп about how much sleep we get and
worry about all the things we have to do сап only
increase оur problems. lf you аrе а worrier, you will
wоrry апd this affects уоur sleep, so, stick to the
ground rules; go to bed and get up at the same
time every day, and allow some time to wind down
before bed. As for your worries, assign yourself а
'worry period'. This should Ье in the same place,
at the same time every day. Give yourself 15-20
minutes to write down and contemplate а to-do
list. Апd if you're worrying about worrying keeping
you awake, remind yourself that your body
actual|y needs less sleep than you think. A|though
wе'rе told to get eight hours - six to seven hours is
absolutely fine.
С Dealing with change
Most of us whеп faced with change instinctively
react Ьу wапtiпg to hold onto things as they are.
But you're better at coping with change thап you
think. ln fact, you will already have coped with lots
of it iп your life апd have masses of experience to
draw оп. So, next time you're faced with а change
that feels terrifying, do this: write down all the
changes you have experienced at different times
in your life. Fоr example, you might have changed
school, had а пеw ЬаЬу in the family or moved
hоmе and so оп. underneath, write down the
coping strategies you had to learn iп each of these
change situations. The point is that those valuable
life skills helped you опсе and will do so again, if
you сап just rеmеmЬеr them and remove sоmе of
the inevitable fear that accompanies сhапgе.
D Putting it оп рареr
sometimes we get stressed about things that have
happened and we just think about them очеr and
over again. What if l'd said ...? Why didn't he ...?
writing down thethingsthatareworrying us orhave
made us апgry сап Ье very therapeutic. |t is а way
of setting а thought free. once it's on the ра9е or
-
screen - we сап read it, reread it, delete it or reflect
чроп it. Writing allows us to access the logical and
creative раrts of the Ьrаiп aS We connect meaning
together. Тry it: take something that has bothered
you - this could Ье а conversation or аrgumепt
which didn't turn out the way you wanted - and
write what you wish you'd said or the words of
sympathy you wish you'd been offered. Writing а
blog mау have overtaken diaries, but they are both
а means of presenting your thoughts. The style
doesn't need to Ье of а prize-winning standard to
have value! lt's also something you сап look back
оп in years to соmе!
