E Feel confident enough to change their beliefs. He won a scholarship to Harvard. G However, he was a good student and loved reading. B 1 n What matters most is how you see yourself. n Before you say anything, remember the educational importance of self-esteem. Abraham Maslow: from Mentally Unstable to Self-Esteem Guru Abraham Maslow was born in New York. His parents had emigrated to the USA to escape from Tsarist Russia. He was the eldest of eight children and so the other kids in the family looked up to him. This was blow to his self-esteem, which he never forgot. At school, young Maslow had tough time for his teachers didn’t like him and the other children bullied him. He didn’t get along with his mother and he made few friends. 2 He also joined many school clubs, edited school magazine and took lots of exercise. He took up weight lifting to make himself look tough. In the end, he got to the university, studied psychology, married and became father. These experiences influenced his psychological idea of self-esteem and its importance in leading a happy life. What Is Self-Esteem? Self-esteem is how we feel about ourselves or the picture we have of ourselves. It includes beliefs and feelings such as confidence and pride. Self-esteem is not about facts but rather what one believes to be true about oneself. Self-esteem is important because it influences – and can predict – academic achievement, including success at school, at college and in tests. 4 Self-esteem can apply to specific dimension (for example, ‘I believe am a good athlete and feel happy about that’ or but self-esteem – or the lack of it – can be more general: for example, ‘I believe deserve respect and so do others’. Researchers describe self-esteem with statements like ‘I am good at tennis’, ‘I am competent’, ‘I am respected’, ‘I am loved’. They usually measure self-esteem on a continuous scale. For example, the Rosenberg test scores each item out of four; it requires participants to indicate their level of agreement with statements about themselves. strongly disagree disagree agree strongly agree I feel do not have much to be proud of. People with healthy self-esteem: believe in certain values and defend them against opposition do not feel guilty when others don’t like their choice There is much more to say about self-esteem but this will give you food for thought.

2 decisions taken now: I think I’ll start painting.

3 Read Helen’s predictions for the future of the art world. Underline all the future forms you can find.

The future of our leisure habits

How will you be spending your free time in the future? Maybe you will be going to a modern art exhibition or seeing the latest movies at the theater. Or will you be listening to your favorite group performing live?

The truth is that since the COVID-19 pandemic, everything about our lives has changed so much that we don’t know what we will be doing this time next week, next month or next year.

We probably won’t be watching our favourite stars in plays in full theaters. Nor will we be sitting in venues, which are full of people listening to live concerts.

Everyone will be thinking of new ways to make and present art to audiences. And art will be reflecting life as directors film more scenes outside, and characters communicate with each other by phone or video call. Special effects too will be taking a central role in all types of movies, not just adventure and fantasy. Composers will be writing music for musicians to play on their instruments while performing together as an orchestra from different locations.

Artists will probably have to make fewer changes to the way they work, as they will still be producing canvases and making sculptures

in their studios. The problem will be showing this work to the public. We will probably be viewing more art installations online, which mix different techniques like painting, film and photography.

As for literature, it looks like activities such as reading novels and poetry will be increasing in popularity in the future, as other leisure activities become more difficult for us to do. We have recently seen many new editions of classic works of literature, in print, e-books and audiobooks. Soon there may also be books published a chapter a week, to replace the episodes of our favorite TV programs, which producers maybe won’t be recording for some time to come. Who knows!

All the boys in the playground were shouting and the captains encouraged them. The leather ball flew like a heavy bird through the grey light. He kept away from the rude feet, pretending to run now and then. The boys were struggling and groaning and their legs were kicking and stamping. He felt his body small and weak in the middle of the tall, strong players and his eyes were weak and watery. Nasty Roche was a bully. His mother had told him not to speak to the rough boys in school.

You have asked me what I will do and what I will not do. I will tell you what I will do and what I will not do. I will not serve that in which I no longer believe. I will try to express myself in life or art as freely as I can. I’ll work and act for liberty and equality. But I will tell you also what I do not fear: I do not fear being alone… and I am not afraid to make a mistake, even a great mistake.

- Alone, quite alone, said his friend, to have not even one friend?

- I will take the risk, said Stephen.

Once upon a time and a very good time it was there was a moo-cow coming along the road and as this moo-cow was coming along the road it met a nice little boy named baby tuckoo. His father told him that story. He was baby tuckoo.

He was alone. A girl stood before him, gazing out to sea. She seemed like a strange and beautiful bird. She was alone and still, gazing out to sea; she felt his presence and his eyes, worshipping her; her eyes turned to him. Long, long, she gazed at him and then quietly turned towards the sea, gently stirring the water with her foot. The noise broke the silence. A faint flame trembled on her cheek. He turned away from her suddenly and set off across the sand. His cheeks were aflame.

The University! So he had passed his boyhood and those who had tried to keep him at home, to serve their ends. His mother had been against the idea, as he had guessed from her sad silence. Ten to eleven, English lecture. He saw the heads of his classmates bent as they wrote in their notebooks. He looked out of the window, across the gardens and the statue of the national poet of Ireland.

Eileen lived at number seven. She had a different mother and father. Her mother and father were grown up. He was going to marry Eileen. He hid under the table. His mother said:

- Oh, Stephen will apologize. His aunt said:

- Oh, if not, the eagles will come and pull out his eyes.

My money

Dan

A I don’t like to owe anybody any money if I can avoid it. But if I needed a loan, I would probably ask my grandparents because they would be cooler about it than my parents. Not that my parents are stingy or anything – it’s just that they won’t give me any handouts if I ask for them. They expect me to be responsible with my money, just as they have to pay the mortgage on the house. But they give me a generous monthly allowance and pay for anything I need for school.

B Unlike most of my friends, who always seem to be in debt, I actually save more money than I spend and put it into a highinterest account. If I find something I really want, however, I’ll splash out and buy it. My only real weakness is technology. I love spending all my cash on all the latest apps and games for my phone or Xbox. If I weren’t so busy, I would create my own games and apps. One day I hope I will.

and me

Grammar: First, Second and Third conditionals

They won’t give me any handouts if I ask for them. If I needed a loan, I would probably ask my grandparents.

C I am a self-confessed shopaholic – online, in the main street, anywhere I can! It’s a real problem because when I go overdrawn on my checking account or on my credit cards, I have to pay bank fees. If my parents knew how bad my spending was some months, I think they’d stop my allowance. But I also have a way of making money – I sing in a band and so we get paid to play at parties or weddings on weekends and during vacations.

Evie Elis

D If I hadn’t been born in the year that our country went into a recession, my parents probably wouldn’t have brought me up with such a strong sense of the value of money. So, if somebody ever lends me money, I’ll pay them back as soon as I can. I can’t imagine taking out a loan, but if I did, I would pay it off as soon as possible. And I would have found a Saturday job too, if my parents had allowed me. But they said I have to concentrate on my studies until I finish college.

I would have found a Saturday job too, if my parents had allowed me.

We use the first conditional to talk about things that are likely or possible to happen in the future. We use the second conditional to talk about things that are hypothetical or unlikely to happen. We use the third conditional to talk about things that are impossible to change in the past.

I wish I hadn’t wasted so much time when I was younger.

Had I realized I was going to spend a lot of my time abroad, I would have learned some languages. We use wish and if only to express regret about the past.

There was a woman who was beautiful, who started with all the advantages, yet she had no luck. She married for love, and the love turned to dust. She had bonny children, yet she felt they had been thrust upon her, and she could not love them. They looked at her coldly, as if they were finding fault with her. And hurriedly she felt she must cover up some fault in herself. Yet what it was that she must cover up she never knew. Nevertheless, when her children were present, she always felt the center of her heart go hard. This troubled her, and in her manner she was all the more gentle and anxious for her children, as if she loved them very much. Only she herself knew that at the center of her heart was a hard little place that could not feel love, no, not for anybody. Everybody else said of her: ‘She is such a good mother. She adores her children.’ Only she herself, and her children themselves, knew it was not so. They read it in each other’s eyes.

There were a boy and two little girls. They lived in a pleasant house, with a garden, and they had discreet servants, and felt themselves superior to anyone in the neighborhood.

Although they lived in style, they felt always an anxiety in the house. There was never enough money. The mother had a small income, and the father had a small income, but not nearly enough for the social position which they had to keep up. The father went into town to some office. But though he had good prospects, these prospects never materialized. There was always the grinding sense of the shortage of money, though the style was always kept up. At last the mother said: ‘I will see if I can’t make something.’ But she did not know where to begin. She racked her brains, and tried this thing and the other, but could not find anything successful. The failure made deep lines come into her face. Her children were growing up, they would have to go to school. There must be more money, there must be more money. The father, who was always very handsome

Winner

and expensive in his tastes, seemed as if he never would be able to do anything worth doing. And the mother, who had a great belief in herself, did not succeed any better, and her tastes were just as expensive.

And so the house came to be haunted by the unspoken phrase: There must be more money! There must be more money! The children could hear it all the time though nobody said it aloud. They heard it at Christmas, when the expensive and splendid toys filled the nursery. Behind the shining modern rocking horse, behind the smart doll’s house, a voice would start whispering: ‘There must be more money! There must be more money!’ And the children would stop playing, to listen for a moment. They would look into each other’s eyes, to see if they had all heard. And each one saw in the eyes of the other two that they too had heard. ‘There must be more money! There must be more money!’

It came whispering from the springs of the still-swaying rocking horse, and even the horse, bending his wooden, champing head, heard it. The big doll, sitting so pink and smirking in her new baby carriage, could hear it quite plainly, and seemed to be smirking all the more selfconsciously because of it. The foolish puppy, too, that took the place of the teddy bear, he was looking so extraordinarily foolish for no other reason but that he heard the secret whisper all over the house: ‘There must be more money!’ Yet nobody ever said it aloud. The whisper was everywhere, and therefore no one spoke it. Just as no one ever says: ‘We are breathing!’ in spite of the fact that breath is coming and going all the time.

4 In his career, the father

A had lived up to people’s expectations of him.

B hadn’t done as well as expected.

C hadn’t ever had any hope of achieving much.

D would have done better if he hadn’t been so concerned with keeping up appearances.

5 Compared to the father, the mother

A wasn’t at all extravagant.

B had less expensive tastes.

C found it equally as difficult to live frugally.

D was much better at budgeting.

6 For the children, the shortage of money in the household

A was not something that they were aware of at all.

B caused them anxiety, too.

C made them upset because they didn’t get the presents they wanted.

D meant that they didn’t feel like playing very much.

Seven steps to becoming a millionaire

Tom Wright is the author of a bestselling book called How to make a million. Here are seven of his top pieces of 1 for getting rich.

1 Work hard – If you work harder and more effectively than your colleagues, this will probably be noticed by your customers or employer. Good enough just isn’t enough to become a millionaire.

2 you go that extra mile in the workplace, don’t expect a pay rise any time soon either.

2 Start budgeting – It is far too easy to waste money and overspend. If you use a spreadsheet to keep

3 of how much money you lose each week, I guarantee you’ll have an unpleasant shock by the end of the year and you’ll be happy to curb that spending.

3 Start saving – Unfortunately you never know what nasty surprise is lurking round the corner. Would you have enough in the bank to cover your mortgage if you 4 your job? I advise keeping at least six months of expenses in your bank account in case of emergencies.

4 Start investing – With such low interest rates, you won’t become rich by sticking all your money in a savings account. Trading in stocks and shares is risky, but if seen as a long-term 5 and if you’re able to keep your cool when the stock market is shaky, you’ll reap the rewards.

5 Learn from your mistakes – Even the richest entrepreneurs have lost money due to bad investments, i.e. they’ve bought companies that then go bankrupt. However, if you’re put off by your mistakes, or let them hold you back from decision-making, you’ll never 6 success.

6 Don’t listen to others – If your friends see you’re becoming successful, odds are they’ll feel envious of you and will try and put you 7 . As soon as you stop believing you’ll become a millionaire, it probably won’t happen. Don’t let other people put you off, prove them wrong instead!

7 Love your job – If you aren’t passionate about your job, chances are you won’t be able to 8 up the long hours and dedication required to make a million. Do what you love and you’ll love what you do (and hopefully also get rich in the process!).

2 CERT Read the text. Use the word given in capitals at the end of some of the lines to form a word that fits in the gap in the same line.

Alex loved horses, which is why he worked in a stable on very low wages. He wasn’t a 1 person – he didn’t earn much but he always managed to put something aside. He spent his

One night, he dreamed he saw his 3 horse, Bella, win a race. So he took out all his 4 , $200, and bet it all on her. It was madness, he knew, but 5 Bella won the race. He was rich! He knew exactly what he would do with his 6 He would buy a horse. It was a good 7 and he knew which horse he wanted. He wanted Bella. He was in luck: the

8 , Mr Thomas, agreed to sell her. However, when the day arrived for the 9 to take place, Mr Thomas said that,

10 , he had changed his mind. He couldn’t sell Bella. His daughter, who was very fond of Bella, refused to part with the horse.

Revison: be going to and will for future

be going to will

● to talk about future intentions or decisions already taken: Spielberg’s going to make a new movie next year.

● to make predictions based on current evidence: Box office sales show the movie’s going to be a great hit.

● to express decisions made at the moment of speaking:

I think I’ll go and buy some popcorn before the movie starts!

● to make predictions based on what we believe: Some movie critics say 3D is a gimmick. It will fizzle out.

● to express future events that are subject to true facts: You’ll be 18 on your next birthday.

Watch out!

It is often possible to use both the Present continuous and be going to when we talk about future plans:

We are staying/going to stay for another week.

We usually use be going to when we want to stress the intention or decision to do something in the future, while we use the Present continuous to talk about a future action which has already been planned:

Hurray! My parents are going to increase my weekly allowance.

We are moving into our new house next Monday.

With come, go and leave we usually don’t use be going to but the Present continuous, as it sounds less clumsy:

● to give a warning about something that’s about to happen: You’re going to burn the steak. Turn down the flame!

Watch out!

● to express offers, promises and requests:

I’ll take you all out to the movies tonight. My treat!

‘You know I’ll always love you darling!’, he said kissing her. Will you lend me $20 until the end of the week?

We use will after verbs of opinion like be sure, believe, expect, hope, think, doubt, suppose, etc.: Mia had another bad mark in math. I doubt her mom will let her go to the party. In the negative form, we add not to the verb of opinion, not to will:

I don’t think he will buy a new cell phone. (Not: I think he won’t buy a new cell phone.)

Revision: Present simple and continuous for future

Present simple Present continuous

● to talk about timetabled events and schedules, such as transportation, TV programs, public shows and events: The train leaves in ten minutes. Don’t be late! The next showing of the new Avengers movie is at 8 p.m.

● to talk about fixed future plans or arrangements, usually with a time expression, involving other people or place: We’re having dinner with friends this evening John is backpacking around Europe this summer

I’m going to the movies this week. (Not: I’m going to go to the movies this week.)

David isn’t going to the university this year. (Not: David isn’t going to go to the university this year.)

Are you coming over this weekend? (Not: Are you going to come over this weekend?)

Exercises 1-3

Future continuous and Future perfect

Future continuous

● to talk about actions in progress on or around a particular time in the future: This time next week we’ll be laying on a tropical beach!

● to make assumptions about what people might be doing at present: Don’t phone Mom now. She will be driving home.

Exercises 4-5

Future perfect

● to talk about something that will be completed before a particular time in the future (often used with by or in): In one week’s time I will have finished writing my first novel!

By the time you receive this letter I will have gone forever. Don’t try to find me!

Conditionals

We use the Zero conditional to talk about things which are always true: If you want to open a bank account, you need some ID.

We use the First conditional to talk about things which are real or possible:

If you make the effort to save money when you are young, you will appreciate it later.

We use the Second conditional to talk about things which are highly unlikely or impossible: If fewer people got into debt, there would be fewer social problems.

We use the Third conditional to talk about things in the past which did not happen, or cannot be changed: If I had put some money aside, I would have been able to buy a car.

Watch out!

The if clause can go before or after the main clause; when the if clause precedes the main clause, we put a comma between the two clauses: I would go on vacation if I didn’t have to work. If I didn’t have to work, I would go on vacation.

Modal verbs can be used in different types of conditional sentences to express different functions:

You can pay contactless if you want to. (ability)

If someone hadn’t been so honest, you might not have had your wallet back. (possibility)

If you need to borrow money, you should apply for a loan. (advice/obligation)

Exercises 1-2

Mixed and inverted conditionals

Mixed conditionals are used to talk about things when the time of the if clause is not the same as the time in the main clause:

If I’d worked during my gap year (past), I’d have money to go to university now (present).

If I didn’t work the night shift (present), I would have joined you for dinner yesterday (past).

Inversions are used in formal conditional sentences to express unreal present and unreal past situations, by inverting the subject and the auxiliary verb and removing if:

If I were in your position, I would ask for a refund on your vacation 

Were I in your position, I would ask for a refund on your vacation.

If I had known you were going to pay, I would have come with you! 

Had I known you were going to pay, I would have come with you!

In negative clauses with inversion, we do not use contracted forms:

If you hadn’t heard the news, you wouldn’t have known all the banks were closed. 

Had you not heard the news, you wouldn’t have known all the banks were closed.

Watch out!

Inversions are also used in formal conditional sentences to express real conditions, by beginning the sentence with should and removing if:

If you need any assistance, please let us know.  Should you need any assistance, please let us know.

Exercises 3-4

wish, if and if only wish, if and if only are used to express the function of regret:

If I had been more responsible, I wouldn’t have maxed out on my credit cards.

I wish I had bought a house when you could still get a 100% mortgage.

If only I had reserved my ticket earlier, I would have paid a lot less for it.

Alice, actress

A We had to pretend to be eggs about to boil in drama class today – not really what I had in mind as my great talent-spotting moment. I wish something really exciting would happen to me, like being chosen for a movie or TV program or something, but I suppose the school drama club will have to do for now. I mean, I know I’m going to be really famous one day and tread the boards at Stratford-upon-Avon or make it big in Hollywood, but for now, I’m stuck with pretending to be an egg!

Samir, writer

C My dad got me some work helping a friend of his write up his new play. I turned up at his office today and I was SO nervous. When I was left alone with this weird-looking guy, I just wanted to get out of there, but his wife was really nice to me and introduced me to their daughter, Mira, who I know from school. She told me just to agree with everything her dad said and he would be fine with me. Anyway, it seemed to work because next day he asked me to bring in a sample of my own work for him to read and comment on. I nearly died of embarrassment while he was reading it, but I learned a lot from his assessment.

I decided to brave it out in class today and put a sign round my neck saying: please donate some money to help me buy my hair back – got a lot of laughs and detention from the math teacher!

Still, it was worth it because Andrew Ings stopped to talk to me after the lesson and tell me how cool he thought I’d been – boy, is he cute!

Evie, musician

D I sometimes wonder if I will get rich, be a millionaire or something like that. I wonder what it feels like to know you can afford all that money can buy… I think I’ll carry on wondering for a long time to come yet! I have band practice tonight and I’ve written a new song to try out with them –I hope they like it! What if they don’t!?!
