I’ve just finished the novel Klara and the Sun, by Kazuo Ishiguro.

It’s a 1 bossy / clever novel about a future where many people have an ‘Artificial Friend’ (AF). It sounds like a very 2 serious / patient topic for a novel, but it isn’t like that. It’s a story of friendship. Klara the AF is very 3 generous / honest, giving all her time to Josie, a young girl who is ill.

But there are also times when the book is 4 funny / nervous – Klara has a good sense of humour! Like you imagine a robot to be, she is 5 bossy / shy and not scared to tell people exactly what to do. This happens when she is protecting her human friend Josie, but she never means to be 6 rude / confident. I think everyone would love to know a Klara.

U ss se As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p

by Claire Shek, aged 13

Co

We saw a documentary film in our biology class last week, called My Octopus Teacher. It was really good! It’s about a man who goes diving every day to visit the same octopus in the ocean.

1 and also the cameraman in the film.

Because he visits everyday, the man gets to know the octopus well and he watches it do all kinds of things like hunting for food and playing with other sea creatures. The octopus is clever and can change its shape and colour to hide from things ! that could kill it. 2 I won’t tell you what happens! Sometimes you don’t know what’s going to happen next, like a thriller.

Some of my classmates cried a little! The man was really nice to the octopus, and by the end, they become friends.

It was really interesting to see how this happened, I didn’t expect it. The man said the octopus taught him to be more patient and to appreciate the beauty of nature.

3

The film was well made and has beautiful film of the ocean and the creatures that live in it. All this was done with just two cameras: the biologist’s camera and sometimes one extra cameraman.

4 I think it’s because they worked hard making a film that is really different to other films with lots of characters and locations. Most of this film is just the man and the octopus under water, but it’s not boring at all.

I loved My Octopus Teacher because it showed how amazing and smart animals are. That was the thing our teacher wanted us to learn about, but the film also taught me much more.

5 We need to think more about how we affect everything that lives in it. We need to protect our planet more.

Overall, I loved My Octopus Teacher and I think everyone should watch it, either in biology class or at home with friends.

B The scene with the shark was really exciting.

en

m

A But not everyone likes that type of film.

C The film won an Oscar, and I can understand why.

D He learned about the importance of the ocean.

t

E It showed me how important it is to take care of the ocean.

F There were so many other exciting and fast scenes!

G However, the documentary was sometimes quite sad and very emotional.

H He’s a marine biologist with over twenty years of experience.

KEEPS US TOGETHER Sports bring people together, helping them to 1 friends and learn about each other. Whether you’re confident and happy to be the team leader, or 2 and prefer to do individual sports, sports let you show your skills and build relationships.

In sports, it’s not only about winning or losing; it’s about the people you get to 3 . You meet funny teammates, serious competitors, and 4 coaches who tell you what you are good and bad at. Sometimes, teammates argue, but that’s normal. Even if teams break 5 or friends you made at the club lose touch, the memories and lessons stay.

Sports offer chances to 6 out and have fun. This is just as important as exercise.

I live in Warsaw, so I have many transport options. I mostly get around by car, especially during the week when my parents give me a lift to school. It’s convenient. In my opinion that’s really common for teenagers here. Weekends are different. I sometimes cycle to meet friends, but there aren’t many cycle lanes, so at really busy times I get on the metro.

Personally, I think that teenagers now think about costs more than being environmentally friendly.

That’s the reason I use my bike. However, I think it’s changing a bit. I’d like to use more public transport, and use a car less. Let’s make the future greener!

or y MY PROJECT: Holidays – a hist

By Claudio Ferreira

ge

id

br

I did a project about holidays and found out that even in ancient Rome people took time off from work. They often visited ancient Greek monuments and theatres in new cities, and went to the beach in summer. They had maps and guidebooks , just like we do today. My classmates and I hadn’t imagined that holidays were such an old concept.

Co

After the fall of the Roman Empire, this stopped happening. Battles around Europe meant most people didn’t leave their village. The only Europeans travelling far were soldiers, religious leaders or people who sold spices, and cloth arriving from Asia.

The idea of holidays became popular again in the 19th century. If you were in England you would see familiar scenes of people at the

In fact, these ‘holidays’ were only day trips by train or horse and cart for most people. Until the 20th century ordinary workers couldn’t pay to stay overnight somewhere. However, in 1938 a new law gave workers in England one week of paid holidays every year. The idea of the modern holiday was born.

Today, holidays are an important part of most people’s lives in my country, we all expect to have them. If we were living one hundred years ago, that might not be true! Be thankful to the people who made them possible.

4 What is the writer trying to do in the text?

A convince us that holidays nowadays are

better than in the past B make us interested in the Roman way of life C help us understand that we are lucky to have holidays D persuade us that we need holidays 5 What might the writer say about modern holidays?

A A modern holiday is one that everyone can afford – at a beach with clean water, close to home, with family.

B Holidays nowadays are not a luxury, they’re something everyone must have in their lives.

C People think holidays have always been a regular part of life, but we should be grateful for them.

D Our holidays are not as long as the Romans’ holidays, but we can go to much better places.

The author learned that…

A holidays in Rome were the same as he expected B few in his class knew that Romans had holidays C Romans and Greeks had similar holidays to us D holidays have always existed 2 Who went on holiday in ancient Rome?

A only people with hotels B only people who worked long hours C only people with a lot of money D only soldiers and religious leaders 3 How were 19th century holidays similar to holidays now?

A Going to the coast was popular.

B People didn’t go swimming.

C Everyone went on holidays close to home.

D Holidays were usually just one day.

beach making sandcastles , eating ice-cream and sailing. But, back then not many people went into the water. The water was dirty, people couldn’t swim, and they needed long clothes to avoid sunburn. And of course, there were no planes, so they didn’t go abroad like us.

ss se As d an s le es sa Pr r y fo it t rs no ve y ni p

U

However, holidays in ancient Rome weren’t a part of life for everybody. Most of the population worked long hours to make enough money to live. Only rich Romans had free time. And, as hotels or B&Bs didn’t exist, you needed to have a second home. Also, they went for much longer than our typical holidays, up to two years at a time. The word ‘holiday’ had a very different meaning for them than it does for us.

We are writing to suggest an idea for the old outdoor swimming pool on Main Street. We are a group of young people living in the area, and we think this is an excellent place for a skatepark. We think that the town needs more places for young people to go after school because the cinemas are only open on Thursdays and at weekends.

When there are more sports facilities in a city, it often has less crime. It would also be very good for our mental and physical health and it would not cost a lot of money to build.

We hope you can consider our idea.

A SUMMARY

This is an article about the history of chocolate.

The first part of the article tells us that chocolate has existed for 3,000 years, and is made from cacao plants. The article says that the Mayans and the Aztecs drank something called xocolatl that was sweet. They drank it before going to war and the Aztecs used it as money. The next half of the article talks about modern chocolate. In 1528, chef Hernán Cortés brought cacao to Spain and it became sweeter.

Chocolate was popular with rich people in France and the UK. The chocolate press was invented in 1828 and this made chocolate very expensive. The article finishes by saying that chocolate is still popular and continues to change.

chocolate Chocolate has a long history that started in ancient Mesoamerica, which is now Mexico, about 4,000 years ago. We think these were the first people to turn cacao plants into chocolate. They used it as medicine. Later, the Mayans drank a mix of cacao beans, spicy chillies, water, and corn, which made a thick drink called ‘xocolatl’. It wasn’t sweet, like chocolate today.

We also know that in the 15th century, the Aztecs drank something similar. They also drank it to get strong and prepare for war. They used cocoa beans as currency, it was very important to them.

There are 1 stages to writing a summary. The first stage is planning. This is time to read, take 2 , and decide what is the most important information. The second stage is writing. First mention the article name, 3 and where it comes from. Then, a summary tells the reader the 4 issues in the article.

Today, people in every country of the world enjoy chocolate, and it continues to change. Have you ever tried salty chocolate? It’s delicious! Who knows what type of chocolate is going to be next?

A key idea is that …

en

The next change was in 1828, with the invention of the chocolate press. This machine could separate cocoa butter and cacao powder, mix it with liquids and make it into a bar of chocolate. Because it was faster to make, chocolate became cheaper and normal people could buy it.

Phrases to give main ideas

m

Then, in 1528, the explorer Hernán Cortés brought cacao to Spain and chocolate started to become more like we know it today. He mixed this with sugar and honey to make it sweeter. Chocolate quickly became popular with rich people, it was very expensive. This was the same in France, where kings and queens ate chocolate at weddings, and in the UK in special ‘chocolate houses’.

Learning has existed for thousands of years, but schools like today are not so old. In the United States, the first public school opened in Massachusetts in 1837. Then, in the 1900s laws were passed in many areas saying that all children under the age of 14 must get an education. Before that, many children had worked on farms, and in all the new factories that had opened.

However, things got worse in the 1940s. World War II had started and there wasn’t enough food to give every student a good lunch. But in 1946, the US government made a law to say that students across the country must get healthy lunches. This helped a lot of children in the USA then and now.

Today, schools should serve students tasty, healthy meals, but surveys tell us that this doesn’t always happen, or students don’t always choose the best options. Maybe we need to think more about why school lunches first started. If better lunches means better grades, this seems like an easy and cheap way to help children get a good education. Let’s eat better and learn better.

Schools needed children to be there all day so that parents could work, but teachers noticed that students got better grades when they ate a good lunch. Some students brought a packed lunch of sandwiches, but no schools had kitchens or places to eat in until schools in Boston served the first hot school lunches.

School kitchens suddenly became popular all across the USA and then all over the world.

I didn’t like the graffiti that I used to see on the walls and bus stops in my neighbourhood. I thought it made everything look so dirty. So, one day I woke up and decided to do something about it.

To be honest, at first, people looked at me strangely.

However, I felt proud of what I was doing, so I just continued to clean. It was really difficult work, but I had started so I didn’t want to stop. I didn’t stop for eight hours, and I was exhausted when I got home!

2 A week later, after lots of hard work, we had cleaned up all of the graffiti in the neighbourhood.

But we knew that we also had to stop more graffiti from appearing, especially around the school.

So, we had a meeting to think about solutions.

3 We decided that he would talk to his art club about painting the walls. They immediately said yes! The next step was to speak to the local council. They also said yes, agreeing to let us paint the . After walls with our own designs. 4 the winners were chosen, the next step was to give each class in the art club a wall in town for them to paint. The walls look so beautiful with all the colours and patterns. And the best thing is, now nobody paints graffiti on them! Young people love talking selfies in front of the walls and posting on social media.

5 . I feel so happy that we made a difference in our community.

A A boy in our class was an artist, and he had a really cool idea.

Saving all my money for two years to pay for a drama summer camp was the best decision I ever made. I’ve always been interested in acting so I was really excited about spending two weeks learning new skills and being creative. ideas about the stage design, lights, and live music for my performance. They were incredibly helpful all week.

Each day was filled with classes where drama teachers focused on different things, from performing in shows to directing video clips. These were OK, but I had already learned the basics online. The camp leaders were what made the camp great. They were all quite young, with experience in acting, and they were a lot of fun. They gave me confidence in my

Looking back on that drama summer camp experience, I see that it wasn’t the easiest summer, it was hard work, expensive, and emotional at times, but it gave me the skills I needed to start acting on social media. Also, now I feel much more confident about making friends, and that’s really valuable.

I really do recommend it!

Why was Ramon nervous at the start of the camp?

A It was the first time he had met people from other places.

B He couldn’t keep in touch with his family.

C He thought he was only good at making friends online.

D He had to get to know lots of people.

2 Ramon thinks one of the best things about the camp was A focusing on one area of drama that he liked.

B the support that the camp counsellors gave him.

C the creative ideas that the teachers provided.

D the online video clips to help him learn.

3 How did Ramon feel about the final performance?

A It was very stressful to create.

B It needed a lot more work.

C He was excited to be part of it.

D The start of it was fantastic.

On the first night I was anxious and missed my family, so I wasn’t sure I wanted to stay. However, after two nights, everything was fine. The other teenagers were all huge fans of the theatre, just like me. Before that, I hadn’t really met anyone in real life who wanted to be an actor, only online. That’s what made the drama summer camp experience more than just learning about acting. It was also about building a community.

I made friends with other campers from all over the country, and we still stay in touch now.

Evenings were filled with rehearsals. We organised a full play that we performed for everyone on the final day. The planning was quite stressful, and a lot of work, but we thought about the end point to motivate ourselves. It was incredible to see how much we had done, and experiencing the energy on opening night was amazing!

There was a terrible crossroads in the town centre yesterday after a bus stopped in the middle of the road by the cinema. None of the cars could go anywhere.

I waited more than half an hour at the underground because every bus that went past was full of traffic lights and the driver didn’t let anyone get on.

The pedestrian crossing from my village to school is really bad. Often the buses don’t come.

Sometimes I think it would be quicker to walk!

At primary school we had lessons about how to cross over the bus stop. Press the button and wait for the little green man!

My mum gets nervous when she’s travelling in the traffic jam. She says the trains go too fast in the tunnels.

It’s depressing that wherever you go in the world, shopping 1 seem to have the same shops and the same fast fashion. The clothes aren’t expensive, so they seem to be good 2 , at least, and there are always clothes with reduced prices 3 sale too, so 4 will keep buying more clothes. But now influencers tell us we have many clothes we don’t need, so it’s become 5 to buy 6 clothes. Nowadays, there are lots of shops and websites to buy and sell old clothes. Then there are vintage shops, which sell 7 clothes from years ago, and surprisingly these clothes can become 8 again. But be careful! The clothes in vintage shops can be 9 – it’s the name! – so if you buy something and then don’t wear it a lot, it isn’t 10 the money.

A few weeks ago I went to the shopping mall to buy some new trainers. I 1 tried on / hired three or four pairs, and chose some I liked.

They were blue, with the 2 logo / receipt on the side in orange – very fashionable! When I got the money out of my wallet to pay for them, the 3 customer / sales assistant said I couldn’t pay in 4 cash / credit card. She said I could only use a 5 receipt / credit card or phone app. I think the 6 sales assistant / customer should be able to use real money if they want to, don’t you? Anyway, my friend’s got a special bank app on his phone, so he paid for my trainers, and I gave him the money. He says you don’t need a 7 credit card / receipt, because you can see what you paid on your phone, but I don’t agree. If what you buy is 8 damaged / tried on, you need to show the receipt when you take it back to the shop.

Still, I’ve got a phone app now too, and it’s very useful. Yesterday I 9 hired / damaged an electric bike with it. They didn’t take cash either!
