ommaso Bonardi, 78, and Vittorio Laudani, 70, are a pair of experienced thieves. Last weekend, they tried to steal from a luxury fashion shop in Rome.

They went into the shop in the middle of the night wearing smart suits. At 4 am they were putting clothes and accessories worth €100,000 into a bag when the police arrived. But the criminals didn't run away. "lhev stood completely still and pretended to be part of the fashion éi»layr. Ihe police looked for them but didn't see them. Then one of them moved.      police arrested thon immediately, and not for the first time!

olice in Devon, UK, had a difficult case to investigate last week. A work of art disappeared at a literary festival. 'The work of art was a bottle of water.

It was special because the water came from melted Antarctic ice. An American artist called Wayne Hill brought back two litres of the special water and made a bottle for it. 'The work represented the problem of global warming. It had a value of over L42,000, so Hill wasn't very happy about its disappearance. Did an art thief take it? Or maybe somebody came across the bottle, thought it was rubbish and threw it in the bin. Or was somebody just very thirsty? "Ihe police looked into the case but no evidence turned up.

LIFE SKILLS OBJECTIVES

• To consider what your values are. To give advice to people in difficult situations.

To decide the right way to behave

KEY CONCEPTS

values [n]: Your values are the ideas that help you decide the way you live. lie [v, n]: Is he lying or telling the truth?

beliefs [n]: People from different cultures sometimes have different beliefs. hurt [v]: When you use violence, you can hurt someone. stand up for [v]: You've got to stand up for what you believe in.

Thinking about in a variety of situations.

property.

6  Stand up for what you think is right.           c)

7  Think about others, not just yourself.

2 READING Read these short explanations for the values in 1. Match the explanations with the values.

We don't all think exactly the same way. That's normal with so many people in the world. The important thing is that everybody has the right to their own opinions and ideas. We all need to respect that right.

Part of being human is looking after other people. When we only think about

B                ourselves, the world becomes a cold and difficult place. When we take action, we need to think about the consequences for us and also for others.

We can't just take what we want. How do you feel if somebody comes and takes your things? Copying another student's work and piracy are two other examples of the same thing taking things that aren't yours.

Physical violence is never a solution. Violence sometimes brings more

D                   violence in the end. When we hurt a person or an animal, we need to be prepare

When we don't tell the truth, we can make life difficult, especially

E                     for ourselves. When somebody finds out that we're lying, they lose

confidence in us, They never know when to believe us. Sometimes even small lies can cause big problems.

We need to remember that public property belongs to all of us. So

Fa we shouldn't damage it. After all, there's no reason for us to break or destroy things that other people can use and enjoy.

You see somebody doing something that you think is bad. If you

G don't agree with that, do something about it. Never do things that you believe are wrong because somebody tells you to. It can be easy to go against what you think is right but there are usually negative consequences in the end.

1      Look at the picture. When do people usually call an emergency phone number like 911 or 999?

2      Read the text and write a title for it.

3      Read the questions. Are there any answers that you think are definitely not correct? Put X next to them.

1      The problem with emergency numbers is that a people don't know what the number is in different countries.

b     people don't always use the service responsibly.

c      not every country has one.

4      One young boy a made a successful call to 911.

b     called 91 1 because he didn't have anything to do.

c      rang 91 1 because of a personal problem.

5      People need to know that calling 91 1 can a waste a lot of money.

b stop the police from doing their job. c make many people laugh.

PORS

n most countries there is a special emergency telephone number to call the police. This number is 911 in the US but it can change from one country to the next. The only trouble is that some people do not have a very clear idea of what an emergency is.

Take the case of Rother McLennon from Connecticut in the US. In 2012, McLennon rang 911 because of a sandwich. In a local delicatessen, he ordered a sandwich with a lot of cheese and mayonnaise. When they gave him his sandwich, he wasn't happy with it. The police officer who answered the call could not believe her ears. At first, she thought the man was joking. Then she said, 'Don't buy the sandwich, then. Just leave.' But McLennon explained that he didn't want to do that because he wanted to be able to go back to the shop in the future. In the end, the police officer sent somebody to help.

Another woman once called 911 to tell the police that she wasn't happy because her local fast-food restaurant didn't have her favourite dish. One evening, a four-year-old boy was doing his maths homework. He was having a problem with one of the questions and so he called 911. The police officer helped him to answer the maths problem! One man had no job and no friends, so each day he invented a reason to call 911, to stop getting bored. Another woman was sitting in her car and couldn't find her keys to open the car door. She called 911. Of course, the police officer told the woman to try opening the car door manually. It worked.

At first these 911 calls seem to be funny, but really they aren't. Each call takes up the time of the police. They waste heir-time-instead.oC-being-free-t04tnswevsevious-eaI.Is-a help people with real problems. That explains why the police can, in fact, arrest you for calling 911 without a good reason.

more important -WHAT YOU SAY or

'QHOWYOU SAY IT?

Some say that up to 70% of decisions made at interviews are based on nonverbal factors. We can communicate a lot just with our body, our face and our gestures. The problem is that we often do this without thinking or reatising. Just by the way that we sit, stand or walk we can appear insecure, confident or sometimes overconfident. Other people form opinions about us before we open our mouths.

DO a little experiment. The next

time you watch TV, turn down the volume. Watch how people move their arms and hands. Look at their faces and their eyes. Now try to imagine what they are saying and how they feel and turn the volume back up. It's incredible how much we can understand without words.

LOOK around the room right now. Are people

sitting up straight? That probably means they are paying attention. Is anybody folding their arms? That's usually a sign that they are being defensive. Is anybody touching their hair? Maybe they're nervous. When somebody speaks, see if they cover their mouth. If they do, perhaps they're lying. On the other hand, when somebody looks straight into your eyes when they speak to you, it's generally a sign of sincerity and confidence.

be problems with body language though. Gestures do not mean the same thing in every country. Even gestures for yes and no can sometimes be different. Bulgarians shake their heads from side to side to mean yes, and they nod up and down to say no. Also, what people believe is polite or impolite can change. Sitting with your hands behind your head is impolite in some countries but not in others. And in some countries it is normal to stand very close to the person you are speaking to.

ANKLES NEED RICE! Right now there are outdoor icerinks almost everywhere in the UK But many people have never been ice-skating before. That's why hospitals and health centres are preparing for an increase in ankle and wrist injuries. Here's a simple first-aid tip if your injury is not very serious. It's called the RICE method R is for rest, I for ice, C for compression and E for elevation. So, when you hurt your ankle, for example, stop moving on it and rest it. Put ice on it not more than 15 minutes and never in direct contact with your skin. Put a bandage on it and keep it tight (not too     keep your ankle up, on a cushion, for example. But remember, when it's really painful and you think the accident is serious, always see a doctor!

NO FUN IN THE SUN

Have you ever tried to get a suntan? Be vey careful. Doctors say that skin cancer is increasing because of our obsession with the sun. It is now the most common cancer for people between

15 and 34. According to a recent survey of 16- to 24-year-olds, over 70% of them want a suntan when they go on holiday. But the doctors' advice is clear. Don't go out in the sun between 11 am and 3 pm and always wear a T-shirt, hat and sunglasses. And never use sunbeds! They are incredibly dangerous, which is why now in the UK they have made it illegal for under-18s to use them.

LETTER THE HOT SOUP FOR

COLDS

Answered by Dr Lucy Smith

Dear Lucy,

I've had a bad cold for over a week. I'm taking medicine but it doesn't do anything. My mum says that chicken soup can help me. Is she mad?

Sarah Johnson

Dr Lucy Smith answers: Your mother's cure for a cold is what we call an 'old wives' remedy'. A lot of people think that it's a mad idea with no scientific basis. But a new study has discovered that many of these 'old wives' remedies' do work. And scientists have found out that chicken soup is a great cure for a cold All kinds of hot soup can help to get rid of a sore throat. And hot soup also helps to kill viruses quickly. So relax, your mum isn't mad.

4 SPEAKING, Work with a partner. Prepare and act out the following situation:

Student A: You are at the scene in 1. Call 999.

Student B: Answer your partner's 999 call. Ask the questions in the text.

WHY LEARN

The simple answer is accidents happen, and they happen quite often. Three million people a year go to hospitals because of accidents and injuries. Knowing first aid can help you to help somebody, maybe somebody close to you. Perhaps even in a life and death situation.

Imagine this. You see an accident. Part of a building collapses. One builder is lying on the ground. Another is having problems walking. Meanwhile, something hit a young woman and she is shouting that she has broken her arm. Her baby is crying in its pushchair. In this scene, who do you n e

The answer is you. Everybody at the moment depends on you. You need to stay calm. And you need to check the dangers. If there is a danger, call 999 immediately.

Look again at the picture in 1. Before you help the boy, you need to look for other dangers. If you hurt yourself, you can't help anybody.

So, assess the dangers of helping. If you think it's OK to help, what do you do next? Firstly, see if the person is conscious. Can they hear you when you ask them a question? Do they respond when you gently shake their shoulder? If they don't answer or respond, shout for help.

FIRST AID?

Then open their airway to check that they are breathing. If they are breathing, put the person in the recovery position. Call 999 in the UK, or 911 in the US, to ask for an ambulance.

When you call 999, be prepared for the following questions:

* Which seruice do you require? (you say 'Ambulance', they will say 'Connecting you now')

What's your name?

What number are you callirlg from?

ren't sure describe anything special around you.) What has happened?

How many people aye hurt?

Is anyone unconscious?

Has anyone stopped breathing?

Is anyone bleeding?

Are there any other dangers around?

These are only the first things you need to know. But with just these basics, perhaps you can save somebody's life.

2      Make sure that the airway remains open by gently moving the head back and lifting the chin.

3      Place the arm near you at a right angle.

4      Move the other arm, with the back of their hand against their cheek.

5      Take the knee furthest from you and pull it up until the foot is flat on the floor.

1      Is it a good idea to put somebody who has had a bad fall in the recovery position?

2      Is it important to open a patient's airway before or after putting them in the recovery position?

WRITING BANK

 

Useful expressions in notes and messages In notes and messages it is normal to begin simply with the name of the person we are writing to.

We often use abbreviations like PS or to keep messages short.

We use expressions like I was really when we are writing about bad news, or Congratulations! when you are happy for somebody.

We use the expression to say we want somebody to recover from an illness or accident quickly.

3                                        Match the abbreviations and their meanings.

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT

Look at the task and write the message. Use the expressions from the Writing bank and the abbreviations from 3.

USE

We use the present perfect to talk about:

an experience in someone's lifetime, without saying the exact time when the event occurred. When it happened is not important. I've broken my ley twice.

recent events which have a result in the present. She's Lost her textbook. (= She hasn't got her textbook now.) actions or situations that began in the past but continue in the present.

Helen's been a doctor fir ten years. (= Helen started to work as a doctor ten years ago and she is still a doctor now.)

Ever, never, for, since, just, already, yet We can use ever in questions with the present perfect.

It means l at any time in your life'.

Have you ever appeared in a film?

Ever comes just before the past participle.

Present perfect and past simple

USE

The present perfect describes actions in the past but without saying the specific moment when they happened I've won a prize.

We can use never in negative sentences in the present perfect. It means 'at no time in your life'. I've never met a favvtous person.

Never comes just after the first verb. For and since are used when the present perfect is describing actions or situations that began in the past and continue in the present. We use for with periods of time and since with moments in time. With this use of the present perfect we use the question 'How long . How long have you had those glasses?

I've had them fir three months/$inceJanuary.

For and since go just before the time expression. We use just with the present perfect to emphasise the fact that something happened very recently. We've just had lunch. (= We finished our lunch only a few moments ago.)

Just goes after the first verb. We use already to talk about something that has happened earlier than we expected.

I don't have any homework to do. I've already done it,

Already usually goes just after the first verb, or at the end of the sentence for emphasis. We use yet to ask if something we expect has happened, or to say that it hasn't. It is used in questions or negative sentences.

Have you tidied your bedroom yet? I haven't had dinner yet.

Yet usually goes at the end of a sentence or clause.

It's Friday night. What would you like to watch on TV? How about a reality show to find the best singer in the country? Or the funniest comedy programme on TV? Or how about watching a complete seven-and-a-half hour train journey from Oslo to Bergen in Norway?

One Friday night in 2009, against all predictions, a million people in Norway (20% of the population) decided to watch the programme about the longest         in the country!

/just want to BE

urat Ucar is a bright 16-year-oldfrom

Tottenham, London, but he isn't doing very well at school. His teachers are worried because he doesn't go to many classes. Murat isn't worried because he believes that one day he will be famous. He doesn't mind if he becomes a famous model, actor or singer. The important thing is to be famous.

-

Murat appears in a documentary about young people today. In the documentary, we see Murat miss school for two weeks. Instead of going to school, he goes to Turkey to have an operation on his nose. After the operation, he tries to appear on The X Factor, to join a modelling agency and then a theatre company.

He isn't the only student like this in the UK. A survey says that more than one in ten young le-would4eave school to try to be famous. Sixteen percent of teenagers think that they can become famous one day by appearing in a reality show. In fact, the chances of becoming famous through a reality show are 30 million to one, worse than the chances of winning the lottery. Most of the 16- to 19-year-olds in the survey said that they want to be famous to have money and feel successful. Nineteen percent of the 777 young people who answered said fame was a way to 'let everyone know who

they were'. Seven percent said it would 'make them appear more attractive'. But experts say that the important thing is to do something because you enjoy it, not because you want to become a celebrity.

Young people need inspiration. Some teachers are worried because today's students admire celebrities with money but no qualifications. Some students now believe that they don't need to study because they can make lots of money by becoming famous.

Luckily, some famous people are trying to correct this idea. Michelle Obama visited a secondary school in London on one visit to the UK. She told the students about her own school days. 'l never cut class. I liked being smart. I loved being on time. I thought being smart was cooler than anything in the world.' Studying hard can lead to future success. Dreaming of fame is just that — dreams.

The Voice I Saturday 7 pm

0000

My favourite programme is The Voice. It's on BBCI . It's on Saturdays at about 7 0'clock in the evening and they repeat the programme on BBC3 on Sundays,

In The Voice, four famous singers listen to members of the public sing, Each star decides if they like the person's voice and if they want the person to be part of their team. Then the teams compete to see who has the best voice.

Personally, I love this programme because love music and

I also like game shows and reality shows. In my opinion,

The Voice is really cool because the stars can't see the person who is singing. They can only listen. I think that's much fairer than on other singing shows where they choose the winners because of their appearance, not because of their voice.

I would recommend The Voice to anybody who likes pop music and reality shows. As far as I'm concerned, it's the best combination of those two types of programme that ever seen.

Text A: Questions

1   What is a carbon footprint?

2   What is the difference between the primary and secondary footprint? Give examples.

3   Does the text mention any of the things in 1? Does it say that each one is good or bad?

4      What does the text say people can do to reduce their water footprint?

a-kCarboQ footprint

Everyone leaves a carbon footprint. It is the impact each person has on the environment through the emission of greenhouse gases.

carbon dioxide emissions [phrase]: The carbon dioxide emissions from old cars are worse than from new cars. greenhouse gases [phrase]: If we burn fossil fuels, the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere increase. fuel-efficient [adj]: Modern cars are more fuel-efficient and use less petrol than before. charge/recharge (a mobile phone) [v]: My mobile phone has no power, I need to charge it.


Your carbon footprint has two parts: the primary footprint and the secondary footprint, The primary footprint shows the emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases that you are directly

———responsibleforÆxamples•arefthe emissions produced by travelling and using electricity. The secondary footprint shows the emissions that you are indirectly responsible for. These include things like the emissions produced when factories make the things that you buy, All of these carbon dioxide emissions contribute to global warming. The size of your carbon footprint depends on many things. How you spend your free time is one of the most important. Do you watch TV

and play video games or do you read or do sport outdoors? Do you fly when you go on holiday? If you do, your footprint will be much larger than if you go by train. Rail travel is three times more fuel-efficient than air travel. Where your food comes from will-also-affectyoursecondary•footprint.• Processed and packaged meat has a bigger impact on the environment.

You may think that you are not responsible for any emissions because your parents do all the shopping and decide a lot of things at home. And it's true that your school is responsible for the things you do there. But you can suggest ways to change their habits. You can also watch less TV, switch off the light when you leave a room and unplug your mobile phone when it has finished charging. Each small action will help make your footprint smaller.


tili

Water is essential in our daily lives. But sometimes the size of our water footprint is shocking. It shows the amount of water a person uses, directly or indirectly, every day.

All day we use water directly. This is our primary footprint. This includes the water we drink, the water we need for a shower or the water we use to wash the dishes. But what about the water that we use indirectly; the water used to produce, grow or make the things we buy? This is our secondary footprint, and sometimes it is much bigger than we think. After all, 70% of the world's fresh water is used for agriculture so the things we eat can make a big difference. And, to make almost anything, from a computer to a T-shirt, you need water. Here are some facts that may make you think about how much

Brushing your teeth uses about seven and a half litres of water.

It takes approximately 1,286 litres of water to produce a loaf of bread. But it takes about 2,310 litres to produce a 150g steak!

An automatic dishwasher uses approximately 40 litres of water. Washing dishes by hand can use up to 75 litres.

A typical individual in the United States uses 500 litres of water each day. But over 1 billion people in the world use less than 6 litres of water per day.

The average toilet uses 8 litres of clean water each time you use it.

TRAN S FERAB LE

1n the past, people left school, found a job and then continued to do that job for the rest of their lives. So, they only leamed the skills for one specific job. But nowadays, most people do a number of jobs during their lifetime. This might be because they want to change jobs or perhaps they have to change jobs because they become unemployed. Today it is still important to learn skills for a particular job, but it is also important to learn 'transferable skills'. These are skills that we can use in not just one job but in almost any job. So, what are the most important transferable skills for the 2131 century? Of course, in just about any job you need IT skills. Computers and new technology are everywhere. If you're a shop assistant, an architect or a mechanic, you must be comfortable using new technology.

But even a highly-skilled user of new technologies needs other skills. Very few people work completely alone. So in order to be successful you have to be able to communicate well with others. Good communication IS an interpersonal skill. Other interpersonal skills include leadership and teamwork These are highly valued by employers. Can you mo va eo ers and direct them if necessary? On the other hand, are you able to listen to and take orders from others? Can you work together as part of a bigger team? That's important if you work for a top international bank or

Other general skills are important too. Maths is one of them. A waiter needs to be able to count money and give correct change. Bankers work with numbers and so do shop assistants. Using your hands can be useful

A LESSON IN

Zafar and Nadeem had been great friends since the age of five. They used to go to the same primary school. When they finished primary school, they both went to the same secondary school. That school was a 20-minute walk from their village in a town on the other side of the river. Every morning Zafar and Nadeem used to walk there and back together.

Zafar and Nadeem didn't always see eye to eye. They didn't use to argue much, but occasionally they had arguments about school. They were both      and wanted to get the best marks in their class. One wet Wednesday afternoon, they were walking back from school together,

as always. But on this occasion Zafar was angry with Nadeem. Nadeem had got the highest mark in a test that day and he kep! on talking about it. Zafar thought Nadeem was only doing it to make him feel bad. Anger took control of him and finally, in a moment of madness, he turned and

Nadeem in the face. Nadeern was shocked at first, but then he picked up a stick, and wrote in the sand by the side of the road: (Today my friend Zafar slapped me'.

The pair of friends carried on their way home in silence. The rain kept on falling, As they got closer to the river, a section of the river bank broke because of the rain and the

water carried both boys into the river. Nadeem couldn't swim but straight away Zafar was there by his side, pulling him to pafety. After Nadeem had calmed down, he took a stone and wrote on a big rock: 'Today my friend Zafar saved my life ,

Zafar said: 'Earlier, you wrote in the sand saying that I hit you. But now you've written on a rock. Why?' Nadeem replied: 'Writing in the sand disappears quickly. When our friends do something bad to us, we should forget it quickly. But when friends do good things and show us kindness, we should always remember it, just as the writing on a rock remains forever.' When Nadeem had finished speaking, Zafar put his arm round his shoulder and they continued on their way home.

Dear Hemy,

I hope you're well. I've got a bit of a problem at the moment and I wanted to ask you for help.

Do you remember my friend Jonathan? He used to be in the basketball team with me. Recently, he's stopped talking to me. About a month ago he started going out with a new circle of friends. At about the same time, he left the basketball team. And at school his marks are getting worse. I really like Jonathan, and I don't mind if he goes out with other friends. But I'm worried about him, I think his new friends are having a really bad influence on him. What should I do? Please write back soon and tell me what you think.

All the best,

Prologue


Congratulations. The fact that you're reading this means you've taken one giant step to surviving till your next birthday. Yes, you standing there, flicking through these pages. Do not put this book down. I'm really serious — your life could depend on it.

This is my story, the story of my family, but it could easily be your story too. We're all in this together, believe me.

I've never done anything like this, so I'm

OK, I'm Max, I'm 14. I live with my family, who are five kids not related to me by blood, but still totally my family.

We're — well, we're kind of amazing. We're like nothing you've ever seen before.

Basically, we're pretty cool, nice, smart —s and very special. The six of us — me, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, the Gasman and Angel were made by the worst, most horrible 'scientists' you could possibly imagine. They created us as an experiment. An experiment where we ended up only 98% human. That other 2% has had a big impact, let me tell you.

We grew up in a science laboratory/prison called the School. It's pretty amazing that we can think or speak at all. But we can — and so much more.

There was one other School experiment that survived. Part human, part wolf — all predator: they're called Erasers. They're tough, smarl and hard to control. They look human, but when they want to, they can change into wolf men. The School uses them as guards, police —e and murderers. They want to kill us. And make sure the world never finds out about us.

But I'm not lying own just yet. m e Ing you, right?

This story could be about you — or your children. If not today, then soon. So please, please, take this seriously. I'm risking everything that matters by telling you — but you need to know.

Keep reading — don't let anyone stop you.

Max. And my family: Fang, Iggy, Nudge, the Gasman and Angel.

Welcome to our nightmare.

We use reported speech to report the words spoken by another person.

'There is nothing new in art except talent,' said Chekluv. ChekJuv said that there Was ptØthiny nzW in art except talent.

Reported questions are not real questions so they do not need question marks.

When there is no question word (who, what, how, why, etc.), we use if or whether.

The passive

FORM

USE

Subject + be + past participle (+ by + agent)

We use the passive when:

Computers are made in China. (present simple)

we are more interested in

TIC Internet is being used by millions of people. (present continuous)

the action than the people

These computers have beevv used by NASA. (present perfect)

who do the action.

The Internet Was created in 1989. (past simple)

My computer has been fixed.

The Internet will be transformed in the future. (will)

we do not know who exactly does the action.

We make the passive with the appropriate tense and form of the verb to be and the      Her laptop has bezo sto[ew. past participle of the verb.

• it is obvious or understood To make object questions in the passive, we put the first auxiliary verb before the                who did the action. subject.

The criminal Was arrested at Is the match being sluvvw on TV?

5.30 pm. WIC Was the World Wide Web invented by?

• We use the preposition by to introduce the agent, that is, the person or thing which does the action.

image
have something done

FORM

Subject + have or get + object

+ past participle (by + agent) I yet my hair cut once every two months. (present simple)

He had cable IV installed. (past simple)

With this structure we make different tenses by changing the tense of have or get.

USE

We use have/get something done to talk about actions which we don't do ourselves; somebody or something does them for us. We often pay them to do this action. Get is slightly more informal.

I don't louw anything about computers so When I have a problem I have my computer fixed by a friend who studied computers at university.

We can use the preposition by to introduce the agent, that is, the person or thing which does the action. If it is not important who does the action, we do not put anything.

TIP FOR READING EXAMS

In reading activities where you complete a text with missing sentences, remember

When you finish, check the activity by reading the text with your answers in the correct place. Do the sentences go together logically? Do words like this or it make sense?

EXAM SUCCESS page 146

1 Read the text quickly. What is the connection between studying and the Internet in the text?

There are tens of thousands of websites where you can buy essays. With most essay-writing companies, students pay per word. Sometimes they pay per page. Some companies offer to write a special, personalised essay, but at an extra cost. You can also pay extra for faster essays.

3,500 specialists are employed by his company. They have written more than 15,000 essays for students. The company made €90,000 in just one week in May. Thanks to his company, Littlewood has a Ferrari and a Lamborghini in his garage. Universities say that the UK's academic reputation is suffering because of online essay companies, and education experts have predicted that schools will have to stop continuous assessment and start doing more exams again,

He says he simply offers them a guide. 'The essays are a starting point. Students use them to create their own work, Students analyse our answers and then they write their own. We're just showing them how to write a great essay.'

As one teacher replied: 'The suggestion that these essays are used by students as 'guides' is crazy and dishonest. We need to do something to stop it.' Many colleges and universities now have software which allows teachers to check if students are copying from five billion web pages. Many universities have somebody doing this full-time. 'It's not a question of catching people and punishing them. It's a question of helping students to understand what education really is. Education is research and investigation, In the end, the students who are using these services are just not learning the skills they need for their studies or for the rest of their lives.'

C       Millions of pounds are spent each year on Internet cheating.

D      But teachers are not convinced that students are using them in this way.

E       Barclay Littlewood, on the other hand, says he doesn't help students to cheat.

3      Read the text again and choose the best answers.

READING: MULTIPLE-CHOICE

ACTIVITIES

Step 1 : Read the text quickly to get a general understanding.

Step 2: Read all the answers carefully. Sometimes the difference between two answers is just one word. Step 3: Find the section of the text where you think each answer comes and read it again slowly, in more detail. Step 4: If you aren't 100% sure which answer is best, take away any answers which you know are not correct. Step 5: When you finish, check that you have an answer for each question.

Never leave answers blank in an exam.

SPEAKING: INFORMATION ROLE-PLAYS If you don't understand what the examiner or your partner says, ask them in English to repeat or to speak more slowly. Use expressions like: 'Sorry, can you say that again?' or, 'Sorry, could you speak more slowly?' Listen to your partner and the examiner. In a conversation we speak and listen.

Show that you're interested in what the other person is saying. Use expressions like: 'Really?' 'That's interesting.' 'Do you?' , 'Me too.'

Use 'Well', 'Hmm' or 'Let me think' to give you time to think of what you want to say next.

Use basic question words like

Who? What? When? Where? How? Why? to help you think of more questions to keep the conversation going.

Unit 4

READING: MATCHING ACTIVITIES LISTENING:TRUE/FALSE/NOT

MENTIONED ACTIVITIES

Step 1: Read the questions before you listen. They can give you ideas about the topic of the text and the vocabulary you are going to hear. Step 2: You can usually hear the recording twice. Try not to panic if you do not understand information the first time. If you don't hear the answer to one question, start listening immediately for the answer to the next question.

Step 3: Use the second listening to find the answers you didn't hear the first time and to check the answers you already have.

Step 4: When you finish, check that you have an answer for each question.

Never leave answers blank in an exam.

WRITING: KNOWING ABOUT

EVALUATION

In exams it is important to know how many marks there are for different sections and to know what the examiners want. Usually examiners want to see if you:

answer the question and include the information they ask for write clearly organise your ideas logically use accurate and varied grammar use accurate and varied vocabulary use punctuation and capital letters correctly

USE OF ENGLISH: MULTIPLE-CHOICE

CLOZE ACTIVITIES

Step 1 : Read the complete text without thinking about the gaps. This helps you to get a general understanding of the text.

Step 2: Before you look at the answers that they give you, think about the type of word you need (noun, verb, pronoun, article, etc.) and the general meaning.

Step 3: Read the answers that they give you. Choose the one which you think is best. Look very carefully at the words which come just before and after the gap. Do they help you to find the answer?

Step 4: If you aren't sure which answer is right, take away any answers which you know are not correct. Step 5: Read the sentence again with your answer in the gap. Step 6: When you finish, check that you have an answer for each question.

Never leave answers blank in an exam.

SPEAKING: KNOWING ABOUT

EVALUATION

In exams it is important to know how many marks there are for different sections and to know what the examiners want. Usually examiners in speaking exams want to see if you: communicate successfully speak fluently use accurate and varied grammar use accurate and varied vocabulary pronounce words clearly


In this type of activity, you have to say which text or part of a text contains a piece of information. Read all the texts or parts of the text quickly to get a general understanding.

Step 2: Read the piece(s) of information that you need to find. Look for key words that help you to find the text or part of the text which contains the information.

Step 3: Read that specific text or part of the text again in more detail.

    ep         you are no                 a you ave oun              e corre answer, rea ot er sections again In more etai .

Step 5: When you finish, check that you have an answer for each question. Never leave answers blank in an exam.

WRITING: CONTENT AND STYLE

When a question tells you to put information in your text, you lose marks if you do not include the information. You can use your imagination but you must remember to include all the information in the instructions.

When you write letters, messages and notes it is essential to write in the correct style. When you write to a friend, use contractions and informal expressions. When you write a formal or semi-formal letter, message or note, do not use contractions or informal language. If your letter is grammatically correct but not in the correct style, you lose marks.


LISTENING: IDENTIFYING THE SPEAKER ACTIVITIES In this type of activity you match different speakers with the things they say.

Step 1: Before you listen, think about the topic of what you are going to listen to. This will help you to predict ideas and words that could appear in the recording. Step 2: Read the questions to know how many speakers there are and what they may say.

Step 3: When you listen, remember that in the listening text the speakers will probably express the same ideas using different words and expressions. Thinking of synonyms for the words in the statements can help you to identify the answers.

Step 4: Don't worry if you don't understand everything the first time you listen. Usually you listen twice. Use the second listening to find the answers you didn't hear the first time and to check the answers you already have.

SPEAKING: NEGOTIATING

In negotiating activities, you usually work with another person. The examiner explains a situation where you and the other speaker need to come to a decision.

In this type of exercise, remember that there isn't usually a right or wrong answer. Basically, the examiner wants to hear you speaking English. If you can't think of something to say: Ask your partner a question like What do you think? This gives you time to think of what you can say next. Use fillers like Well, Hmm or Let me think to give you time to think of what you want to say next.

Don't be afraid to say something you think is obvious.

Give full explanations for your opinions and ideas.

Listen to what your partner or the examiner is saying. In a conversation we speak and listen.

If you don't understand what the examiner or your partner is saying, ask them in English to repeat or to speak more slowly. Use expressions like: Sorry, can you say that again? or, Sorry, could you speak more slowly?

Unit 7

READING: TRUE-FALSE ACTIVITIES

Step 1: Read the text quickly to get a general understanding Step 2: Read the sentences that you need to prove true or false.

Step 3: Find the parts of the text where the information comes. Read them again in more detail.

Step 4: If there is no information to say if a sentence is true, mark the statement false.

each question. Never leave answers blank in an exam.

USE OF ENGLISH: SENTENCE TRANSFORMATION ACTIVITIES In this type of activity you have a sentence and you must complete a second sentence so that it means the same as the original sentence. In some exercises you must use a word that they give. in this case, you cannot change the form of this word. Generally you can only use between two and five words, including the word they give you.

Step 1: Read the original sentence carefully. Think about the meaning of the sentence, the type of structure(s) used, the tense(s) used, etc.

Step 2: If they give you a word, think about its meaning. Think also about the grammatical function of the word. Does it always or usually go with another word or tense?

Step 3: Write your sentence. Step 4: When you finish, check that you:

      have not changed the meaning of the original sentence. • have not changed the form of the word they gave you.

      have not used more that the maximum number of words permitted.

WRITING: EXAM CONDITIONS

When you write in exam conditions, you cannot usually use a dictionary or grammar book. If you do not know a word, think of a similar word or a more basic or general word. Do not leave a gap or write the word in your own language. If necessary, change what you were going to say.

If you are not sure how to use a grammatical structure, think of a different way to say the same thing.

Answer the question. You might not get any points if you don't answer the question properly.

Pay attention to the maximum and minimum number of words in the instructions. Plan and organise your essay before you write and check it carefully for mistakes when you finish.

LISTENING: MULTIPLE-CHOICE

Step 1: Read the different answers before you listen. They can give you ideas about the topic of the text and the vocabulary you are going to hear in it. Remember that sometimes the difference between two answers is just one word.

Step 2: You usually hear the recording twice. Try not to panic if you do not understand information the first time. If you don't hear the answer to one question, start listening imme 'ate y ort e answer to t e next question Step 3: Use the second listening to find the answers you didn't hear the first time and to check the answers you already have.

Step 4: When you finish, check that you have an answer for each question. Never leave answers blank in an exam.


SPEAKING: REPORTING ACTIVITIES

In this type of activity you have to talk about something (real or imaginary) that happened in the past. You may need to speak alone or have a conversation with the examiner or another student.

Remember to use past tenses correctly. We use the past simple for completed activities in the past. The past continuous is for activities in progress at a moment in the past. We can use it to describe scenes in the past. The past perfect is for activities that happened before other activities in the past. Used to is for past habits. Use expressions of time and sequence (first, next, then, later, etc.) to make the order of events clear. Use basic question words like Who? What? When? Where? How? Why? to help you think of more things to say.

Use fillers like Well, Hmm or Let me think to give you time to think of what you want to say next.

Listen to what your partner or the examiner is saying. In a conversation we speak and listen.

If you don't understand what the examiner or your partner is saying, ask them in English to repeat or to speak more slowly. Use expressions like: Sorry, can you say that again? or, Sorry, could you speak more slowly?

WRITING: ANSWERING THE QUESTION

Remember that in writing exams you lose marks if you do not answer the question. It is not enough to write a composition with no grammatical mistakes and with a wide variety of vocabulary. You must also include all the information that appears in the question. Reading the question carefully can also help you to decide which tenses and vocabulary you need to use.

Unit 10

USE OF ENGLISH: CLOZE ACTIVITIES

Step 1: Read the complete text without thinking about the gaps. This is to get a general understanding of the text. Step 2: Look again at the gaps and especially the words which come just before and after the gap. Do those words need a special preposition? Is an article or auxiliary verb missing? Think about the type of word you need (noun, verb, pronoun, article, etc.) and the general meaning. Step 3: Fill in the gap with the word that you think is best. Read the sentence again with your answer in the gap to check it. Check that the meaning is logical, but check also ometim more than one possible answer but you only need to put

one.

Step 4: When you finish, check that you have one answer for each question. Never leave answers blank in an exam.

Ilni+ O

READING: MISSING SENTENCES ACTIVITIES

In this type of activity you have to fill gaps in a text with sentences taken out of the text. There are sometimes more sentences than spaces.

Step 1 : Read the text quickly to get a general idea of what it is about. To do this type of exercise you do not usually have to understand every word, so don't panic if you don't understand everything.

Step 2: Read the sentences which go in the text. What does each sentence talk about?

Step 3: Find the sections of the text which correspond to the information in the sentences and read them again slowly, in more detail. Put each sentence in the most probable space. Step 4: When you finish, check by reading the text with your answers in the correct place. Do the sentences go together logically? Do words like this or it make sense? Check also that you have one answer for each question. Never leave answers blank in an exam.

LISTENING: COMPLETING NOTES

Always read the incomplete notes before you listen. This helps you to know what to listen for. Look carefully at the words that come just before or after each space and think about what type of word is missing (noun, verbi adjective, adverb, etc.).

It is not usually necessary to understand every word that you hear. Listen out for the sections which correspond to the information in the notes. Pay special attention to these sections.

Usually you only need to write one or two words in each space. Be careful with spelling and your handwriting. Don't worry if you don't understand everything the first time you listen. Usually you listen twice. Use the second listening to find the answers you didn't hear the first time and to check the answers you already have.

SPEAKING: COMPARING AND CONTRASTING PHOTOS

If you cannot think of things to say, use the questions What? Who? Where? Why? When? etc. to give you ideas. Think of possible questions that the examiner will ask you about the photo. If you don't know a word, don't worry. Think of similar words, more basic or general words, or explain the word.

Use words and expressions like Both of the photos show,

One similarity is that , One thing they have in common to say things that are similar in the two photos. Use words and expressions like but, whereas, however,

things that are different in the two photos.

Use fillers like Well, Hmm or Let me think to give yourself time to think of what you are going to say next.

If you aren't 100% sure of what you can see, speculate using expressions like It may/might be, I'm not sure but I think, It looks like, It seems that, etc. Don't be afraid of saying simple, obvious things. The important thing is to say something because the examiner basically wants to hear you speaking English.
