Do you follow any celebrities on social media? I run a spellchecker after I’ve typed the posts. How much time do you spend online each day? Where is she streaming that music from? It was built in the classical style. I can present the results of a survey and contrast people’s opinions. What technology makes your life easier? Teenagers haven’t had enough experience. She works as a translator of technical texts. How often do you update your social media page? How many photos do you normally take and upload each week? Zoe’s grandmother really likes video calling. In the 1960s, people used to listen to music on vinyl records. The new VR headsets are good. This device is wearable. I don’t often look at news websites. I’m trying to connect to the Wi-Fi but it’s not working. Come back to the real world!

We will accept offers over €100. Many actions have unintended consequences. I regret not keeping my old Star Wars action figures. I can engage actively in a conversation. He addressed it to ‘someone beautiful and far away’. Eventually, an Australian family adopted him and he moved to Tasmania. We went shopping and afterwards I went to a café. When he finally travelled back to the village, he found it almost empty. Upset and alone, Saroo stayed on the train as it travelled 1,000 miles to Kolkata. Amazingly, just as we were getting out of the car, the rain stopped. Record yourself telling your anecdote. Peter apologized to his brother. Saroo was asleep on the train. I came across this in a box of old photographs in our attic. I often look back on that trip – it was awesome. What were the main events and what was happening in the background? Afterwards we had a barbecue, and we stayed outside chatting until one in the morning. I opened the box, and there was a beautiful brand new bike inside. He was begging for food. I was upset when I lost this watch ’cos it belonged to my grandad. She never uses plastic cups, bags or bottles. You don’t need to put brand new objects into your capsule. She was upset because she broke her phone. The moment that we left the campsite, it started raining. The Gun Club made long cannons to help the soldiers who were fighting in the war. What kind of things do people put into time capsules? Please be more careful this time. All through her childhood she loved playing tennis. He drew a circle.

The cheese is very smelly. He is a soldier in the army. Where did Chloe get her souvenir? It’s really special because it reminds me of him. After that, we drove straight home again. He lives in this street. I stupidly agreed to lend him the money. I suddenly realized what I had to do. Many birds didn’t survive the cold winter. I left my teddy bear at a hotel. That’s a terrible thing to say! There was a fire in the building, but thankfully no one was hurt. My dad took us to a theme park. You are always in my thoughts. He put the letter into a bottle and he threw it in the sea. My dad asked me to tidy my room. Use a metal or tough plastic container. The children were playing happily with their toys. I treasure the sweater that you made. We took a trip to the ocean. The book was undamaged after being left outside. That restaurant is very unpopular. She was upset because she lost her phone. I can only afford to buy a used car. Many teachers think exams are useful. The broken phone was useless. My coin collection is very valuable. He found his village on the map. When he woke up, his brother had gone. I didn’t have any money because I had lost my wallet. I kept in my head the images of the streets I used to wander. They lost the war. I was upset when I lost this watch ’cos it belonged to my grandad. We ate our picnic by the waterfall. His knife was his weapon. One day I was walking in a wood with a friend. He keeps the watch in a wooden box. The collection is worth some money. The book is worthless. I recently found this wristband from Glastonbury festival.

Why did Lauren change her lifestyle? Subjects like literature and English are difficult for me. We visited a local museum. Do you agree or disagree with the majority of people in this survey? I’ve been thinking about it for ages, but I can’t make up my mind. She has managed to reduce her waste significantly. Daniel Suelo is a modern nomad. He’s jobless and moneyless. We’ll be having pizza in a place near the cinema. They live as nomads in the desert. Sometimes I don’t bother getting in. These people had strong opinions. It gave her the opportunity to tell her side of the story. It takes me a while to choose things because I like to consider all the options first. The Adbusters organization wants people to participate in Black Friday shopping. You need to organize a meeting. Do you own your house or do you rent it? She either reuses containers or buys products without packaging. Have you been working part-time for both jobs? I chose to participate in the activity. We are invited to the party. They were all very excited, but they waited patiently. Please pause the film. In which period of history do you think the novel is set? They are arguing about politics. I put off doing it until the last possible moment. We had to postpone the party. Prepare and practise a dialogue about your day. Get involved with projects and charities. My idea is to make a cannon that will shoot a big projectile to the moon. I propose we add a transition year to our school. Joelle puts things off. The candidates completed written questionnaires. They completed the task quickly. The dog waited quietly. We need to raise enough money to fly to India. What do you reckon? Write a report about the results. My teacher hasn’t given us our results yet. She either reuses containers or buys products without packaging. Make sure you don’t rush into anything. We need to add more salt to the pasta. I have been saving money for a scooter. It was Katie’s second trip to the seaside. We found shelter under a tree. She was shocked that people are so wasteful. If you join a club, you’ll get to know people with similar interests. They lived without smartphones for a year. Social contact, physical exercise and delicious food have always made human beings happy.

Which companies have the best marketing and advertisements? Marketing and advertising cost about $8. What luxury brand would you buy if you could afford it? It’s a ‘unisex scent’, so this will appeal to both boys and girls. I think most people would appreciate a pair of these slippers as a present . Its value is approximately $5 per litre. At the checkout, a shop assistant scans the bar codes on products to find out their prices. Computer printers can seem like a bargain. Saffron is worth more than gold.

A Canadian company sells cans of air from the Rocky Mountains. I’m going to the bank on Smith Street for some cash.

Be yourself, don’t be a poser. You yourself know you’ve got reasons to be proud. Are you a dreamer or a realist? I was a rebel when I was a teenager. I have a rebellious side, but people don’t always see it. The writer thinks that clothes reflect personality. Most people say I’m reliable. I am writing to request further information about the volunteer programme. Could you send me more information about the requirements for the volunteer programme? It is my responsibility to care for the dog. What chores are you responsible for at home? The look on her face when I told her was reward enough. Which experience would be more rewarding for you?

It was an accidental discovery. The amphitheatre was built by the Romans over 2,000 years ago. In Croatia, they have found some great uses for many ancient ruins. The distinctive features of the stadium are its partially retractable roof and the arch. I spent a year studying archaeology. The Mall is the avenue that goes from Trafalgar Square to Buckingham Palace. They built a new bike lane on our street. Construction workers are excavating an area in order to build a car park. I found a bullet hole in the stone wall. I saw the dog bury the shoe in the yard. The stadium has a capacity of 75,643 people. He created a new invention in the 17th century. My neighbour is very chatty. We live in the city centre.

A troll is somebody who sends abusive messages. In the UK, trolling is now a criminal offence. His talent is unbelievable. Be prepared for a totally unexpected ending. The loss of the book was very unfortunate. He can unlock jail cells straight from his mobile phone. The judge told the vandals that they would need to pay for the damage. A British graffiti artist was given a prison sentence for vandalism. Thieves drilled a hole in the wall of the vault. An updated version of the book was released last year.
