Writing 1 A 2B 3B 4 providing entertainment / shopping at local businesses 5 1 because 2 since 3 so 4 as a result 5 Due to 6 as 7 owing to 8 Therefore 7 Model answer I’m not sure that I completely agree with the idea that going to a small village school is better than going to a large one in a city. In fact, there are benefits to both kinds of school. Perhaps one thing that is better about small village schools than larger ones is that students are likely to receive more individual attention from teachers. Therefore students may make faster progress as a result. However, due to the greater number of students at a larger school, students have contact with more people and have the chance to make more friends than they might at a smaller school. This may improve their social skills and provide them with a wider range of experiences. Larger schools are also more likely to have teachers for individual subjects rather than a single class teacher for every subject, so students have access to more specialist knowledge. There is also more access to facilities such as museums or galleries than in villages. In conclusion, there are advantages and disadvantages to both kinds of school, and neither one can really be considered better than the other for young people.

Finally, it was time for our school trip to France. The night before, I hardly slept from anticipation. This would be my first time abroad! A few weeks before, I had got my very first passport. On the day, we had to meet at school very early in the morning. The coach was buzzing with excitement. Our energy was like a candle that couldn’t be blown out. After a few hours, we arrived at the ferry port and got off to go through passport control. Our teachers made useless attempts to get us to stand in a queue like at school. When it was my turn to step up to the booth, I proudly handed over my brand new passport. The immigration looked at me, at my passport, at me again and then frowned. “Excuse me, Miss,” he said. I smiled at him. “I don’t think this is you.” He turned my passport around. The smile slid off my face like an ice cream melting off its cone in the summer heat. I had brought my dad’s passport by mistake!

I spend most of my free time outdoors, running about in the woods with my friends or horse-riding through the fields at sunset. Sometimes we swim in the lake on a hot summer day to cool down.

Don’t you just love nature? It isn’t just fields and flowers that are interesting to look at but humans and animals, too. I love to watch my pet cat and dog and notice the differences between them. No one could disagree that it’s important for people to get outdoors and exercise in the fresh air. Just think about how your mood improves after you’ve been for a run or spent time in the park. Even research shows it’s good for us. So, in a few words, spending time in nature not only helps you physically but mentally, too. And it’s a great way to learn about the world while you’re having fun!

A they take pressure off students B they allow students to learn about jobs in business C they are advertised widely D they generally offer fixed sums of money 3 In paragraph 3, the writer implies that he was A worried that he had completed his application incorrectly. B confused by a childhood experience C bored by the amount of detail in the scholarship application. D annoyed that he hadn’t understood the application conditions 4 What does ‘it’ refer to in line 31? A applying for a scholarship B getting involved with school activities C helping a local family in trouble D being a good leader 5 Why does the writer feel positive about non-traditional scholarships? A They only give out small amounts of money. B They allow anyone to apply. C They look for students who have special skills. D They are for students who are more interested in animals than sports. 6 Why does the writer mention being a vegetarian? A to show different types of hobby. B to show that all scholarship candidates must be talented C to explain why eating habits are important D to support his definition of unusual scholarships 4 1 A … the thought of paying the fees and general living costs for four years is difficult to comprehend. A quick survey of my friends showed that almost all of us had a few sleepless nights … we knew that at the end of it we would have a huge amount of debt. 2 A That’s why scholarships are so important; they provide important support that enables students to focus on studying instead of having to find ways of making money. 3 D I remember a very frustrating experience: I got all the way to the end of an application when I realised that I didn’t qualify because my family had lived abroad for a few years when I was younger. 4 C … he had been involved in organising a charity event to raise money to help a family on his street whose house had burned down. He’d only done it to be kind … 5 C The people behind these scholarships don’t care about how well you can write an essay or your average score in science; they are more interested in your unusual talents. 6 D Non-traditional scholarships are also awarded to people who are passionate about things like being a vegetarian … 176

Now your English teacher has asked you to write an essay for homework. Write your essay using all the notes and giving reasons for your point of view. Some people prefer to give experiences as gifts rather than actual presents. What things would you need to think about when choosing an experience for a family member or friend? 177

Suggested answers a train ride in the countryside, a home-cooked meal, a balloon ride, a cooking class, a photography session, etc. 5 Model answer Nowadays, many people prefer to give experiences instead of actual presents because people can get more enjoyment out of these. But what can we give that will be suitable for the person? One option is something really unusual, like flying lessons. On the one hand, this is something unique that a friend or family member probably wouldn’t organise for themselves. But, on the other hand, it is quite dangerous and isn’t a good option for someone who is afraid of heights! A ticket to a concert would please someone who is a big fan of a certain band or singer because the atmosphere at a live music concert is very exciting. However, tickets for famous artists can be quite expensive. So, you could buy a ticket for a local concert or summer festival. Finally, you could arrange something that you can do together, like a train ride in the countryside. This would mean that you could spend time together and share a new experience. To sum up, there are many different options for experience gifts. You can easily find something that your friend or family member will love!

They agree with each other apart from the first point A mentions. 6 Sample responses 1 Yes, I agree. A good example of this would be creating a story about going to the beach, and using all the words you know about the beach, like sand, waves and so on. 2 I’m not sure about that. Recording vocabulary on a topic can be a good way to memorise the words. For instance, you can colour code the different forms of a word, such as nouns in green pen or verbs in blue, which will help you remember how they’re used. 3 Yes, and you improve other things, such as fluency and comprehension that way, as well. 4 It’s definitely useful if the test is going to include a writing task like an essay! And you can practise timing yourself, especially if you’re usually a bit slow at writing. For instance, you can set your timer to 20 minutes and try to write a whole essay. 5 They can be difficult to follow, though. What I mean is that first-language speakers talk very quickly, and use a lot of unknown vocabulary.

We can avoid certain health issues like obesity and diabetes, which could help us to live longer. 2 I can see that there are both pros and cons to using technology to stay healthy. On the one hand, we can use fitness apps to track how much exercise we do, and this can show us if we are doing enough. But on the other hand, I think that it is easy to get addicted to measuring everything we do and eat, and this isn’t good for our mental health. 3 I strongly believe that we shouldn’t check our symptoms online. Some symptoms can mean many different things, and we could see something online that isn’t true and worry for no reason. For me, only doctors can confirm health problems. 4 Well, that’s a tricky question. I think that technology has changed what we know about our health because scientists have more advanced equipment. They can study the impact of different behaviours and make recommendations about things we should and shouldn’t do. But I think we also have more information because there are more scientists and they have more time to do research.

It is one of the most successful TV series ever and has millions of fans around the world. The series starts with the Stark family, who live in the North of the Kingdom of Westeros. After the king asks them to go down to the capital, everything starts going wrong for the family. There are six children in the Stark family, but they all get separated. The series follows them as they try to keep safe and avoid their enemies. Game of Thrones is based on a series of books. There is less detail in the book than in the TV series, but this works because it keeps the audience’s attention. However, there is a lot of violence in the show, which isn’t always necessary. Some of the characters have bigger parts in the TV series than in the book. In my view, Game of Thrones is an intense and exciting adaptation of the original books.

UNIT 7 Reading 1 1 experiment 2 futuristic 3 complex 4 blossom 5 cosy 6 bother 7 massive 2 earth shelters, caves, eco-homes and igloos 3 1 B is correct because ‘They’re’ refers back to the earth shelters and the following sentence explains the ‘kit’ mentioned in B. 2 G is correct because ‘here’ refers back to ‘places with colder climates such as Iceland and northern Scottish islands’ mentioned before the gap, and the sentence following G explains why the homes are becoming popular in other places. 3 A is correct because ‘them’ refers back to our ancestors, and the following sentence refers back to the empty homes. 4 E is correct because ‘Indeed’ shows that it supports the previous point that ‘these inexpensive buildings create an excellent alternative way of living’, and what follows is an example of the high prices which cave houses can be bought for, now. 5 C is correct because ‘This living cover’ refers to the plants growing on the roof. 6 D is correct because it provides an explanation for the warmth of igloos.

WORKBOOK ANSWER KEY Summer’s the best time to come to the mountains because it’s warm enough to be outside but not too hot to do things. There’s a lot to do here. You love walking, don’t you? There are plenty of places to go walking in the mountains and the views are amazing. There’s also a toboggan run which is brilliant! You sit on a little kart and go down the mountain on a track. You’ll love it, I’m sure. There’s a lake where you can go swimming, too. It’s my favourite place to go in summer. I think the best way to get around is by bike. The valleys are flat in the bottom and the roads are good, so it’s not too hard to get around. You could stay in a guest house in one of the villages. Most of them are comfortable and not expensive. You can have meals there, too. Let’s try and meet while you’re here. Write soon! Cassie

Perhaps they are in a lesson or even in a cooking competition. The people in the first picture might be having a lesson as well, but they are probably on holiday rather than at school. I don’t think they are in a competition, though, as there aren’t other people around them. In my opinion, the people in both pictures are concentrating on what they are doing and are enjoying themselves. The people cooking are smiling and laughing together but the people surfing are also probably feeling quite nervous. The people indoors look comfy and relaxed while the ones in the sea look as if they are a bit cold!

Not surprisingly, some people think this is a good thing, while others disagree. On the one hand, I believe that browser history can help us to remember information. Many people spend a lot of time online and want to flick quickly between websites. Browser history allows us to easily find something that we saw and thought was interesting or useful, and access our favourite websites without wasting time. On the other hand, it is easy for other people to access this browser history through Internet tools. This means that they can find out personal information, such as our address and date of birth, and details about our friends and relatives. Unfortunately, some people become victims of crime through hackers accessing their browser history. This happens when computers automatically remember login details and passwords for bank and email accounts. In conclusion, although storing browser history can be useful for individual people, it also has some disadvantages. In my opinion, it is only a good thing if you have strong anti-hacking and virus protection on your computer.

For example, they can make us feel sad, happy or scared. I think they’re the most important part. How about you? A: The plot is the most important thing in a film, isn’t it? B: Well, yes, but some great films have weak plots. Other things are important too, like the special effects. A: So, perhaps we should make a decision now. B: Good idea. Let’s see if we agree. All these things are really important, but probably the most important thing of all is having an interesting plot.

3 1 What I enjoyed best was the atmosphere. 2 What was hard to understand was his accent. 3 What she found boring was the interval. 4 What was disappointing was the long queue. 5 What I didn’t like was the price. 4 Possible answers 2 What were boring were the circus tricks. 3 What was too loud was the sound system. 4 What I enjoyed best were the sandwiches at the food truck. 5 What I really liked were the performer’s costumes. 6 What was annoying was the lack of organisation. 5 Model answer Last weekend, I went to the open-air college art show in the city centre. I wasn’t sure if it would be interesting, but I’m so glad that I decided to go. Firstly, there were over a hundred works of art on display. There were many different types, not just paintings. There was even a special tent with light shows – I hadn’t realised how amazing different patterns of light could be! It took me two hours to look at everything. After that, I went to the refreshments area where there was every type of food you can imagine. What was incredible was that you could get free samples of everything! Overall, I thought the event was well organised and accessible for everyone. What I liked the most though was talking to the artists. They were all students in the final year at local colleges and universities, and it was brilliant to hear them explain how they got their inspiration. In conclusion, this was an amazing event for people who like art or just for people who want to support talented young people in our community. Everyone should definitely go next year.

WORKBOOK ANSWER KEY

Writing Part 1 1 Model answer I partly agree with the idea that travelling in your own country is better than travelling to other countries. It is true that air travel has a negative effect on the environment because of air pollution. The best way to avoid contributing to this is not to use vehicles at all, and to go on cycling or walking holidays instead, which are more likely to be within your own country. But there are many good reasons to travel abroad. There is the possibility of improving your language skills, for example. People say that language is culture, and, therefore, learning another language helps you to learn about that culture. It helps cross the language barrier, learn about other people, and promote understanding across cultures. You can have many exciting and interesting experiences whether you stay at home or go abroad, such as seeing new places or trying new food. You can also learn about yourself – how you cope with problems, for example – and travel can boost your confidence, too. In conclusion, there are advantages and disadvantages of travelling at home and abroad. Perhaps doing a little of both is the solution! Part 2 2 Model answer I recently used a website for the visual arts, called Actingskills. com, which has helped me with our drama classes at school. I found the website useful because there are lots of videos and tips which help you to improve your acting skills. For example, you can learn how to express different emotions, such as panic, shock and pride, which are a bit more difficult than just happiness and sadness. There is also advice about how to use your voice well, and there’s a great article about the differences between acting for TV and acting on stage. It would be good if you could upload videos of yourself to the website for people to comment on and give you honest feedback. It’s possible you may not like the comments, but I’m sure it would help you improve! I don’t think the talent-spotters will choose me for a role in a big film any time soon, but I’ve definitely built up my confidence and my classmates have noticed that, too. They’ve asked how I’ve got so much better in such a short time – and I’ve already recommended the site! 3 Model answer Subjects for life! Maths may not be everyone’s favourite subject, but I think that it is the most useful school subject because you need it in every part of your life, from paying for things in shops to working out how much food you will need to hold a barbecue for your friends – even measuring out ingredients to make a cup of coffee! Other subjects, like history or music, are interesting, but you can easily go through life without knowing much about them. You can’t get through everyday life without maths, and that’s what makes it more useful than any other subject. There are plenty of ‘subjects’ which aren’t taught at school but should be. For example, most schools don’t focus on things like how to make friends or how to deal with problems between people. There should be much more focus on how to interact with others, deal with conflict and survive real life! You can have all the academic qualifications in the world, but if you can’t get on with people or don’t have any common sense, it’s unlikely that you will be as successful as someone who can and does.

4 Model answer Hi Alex, Thanks for your email. It was great to hear from you. Your survey sounds really interesting and I’d be happy to take part! My role models aren’t anyone rich and famous as you might expect. In fact, my parents are my role models. Why? Because they have always supported me in my choices and they’re the best listeners in the world. They support me when I have problems and help me solve them. They inspire me to succeed and be a kind and thoughtful person. I think role models are people who are confident and calm, and who respect other people and their decisions and differences, and encourage them to be the best they can be. They may be natural leaders and work hard to do their best in life. Do I think actors and sportspeople make good role models for young people? Sometimes, if they are people who get involved in making the world a better place by supporting charities, raising money for good causes, and using their fame to help other people rather than themselves. I hope that helps! Jamie

Sometimes the team’s out for days and never sees a pack – I doubt I’d have the patience for that … Part 3 19 A What surprised me was the range of stuff to eat. I never expected a festival to offer such good quality meals and that’s kind of what made it so good! 20 C … the thing that struck me was how gorgeous it was.

That was the best bit and we’re going to keep in touch. 22 H The festival’s in a farmer’s big field but they’ve set up these roomy caravans to rent – I had the best sleep ever despite all the noise of the festival. 23 G The highlight for me was all the stuff you could do besides listening to music. There were all kinds of classes and workshops you could attend. Part 4 24 B It’s not just about making big pictures for the background, which is often what’s believed about the job. 25 C It was only when I did some work experience at a theatre box office, hoping it might help me get an acting role there, that I became fascinated by what the set designers were doing. … set design looked much more enjoyable. 26 A I asked around until, eventually, designers working at my local theatre said I could join them. … I have to thank those people for providing me with that opportunity. 27 C You have to think on your feet and that’s when I do my best work, coming up with solutions. 28 A … things rarely go wrong with sets because we’re so careful when we build them …, 29 A … there’s always a moment during the production process where you hold your breath and wait to see whether it all works! When it does, the design team cheers - that’s always a top moment. 30 B … plays can teach people about subjects they know little about, get important messages out there.

Speaking Part 1 What do you like about where you live? I live in the middle of the city so there’s always something to do. There are lots of shops, cinemas and parks nearby. If you could live anywhere, where would that be? I like living the city, but one thing we don’t have is the sea and I would love to live somewhere with a beach where I could relax with my friends, swim and maybe even go surfing! Have you travelled much in your own country? No, not really. I went on a trip with my school to the mountains and the scenery was really beautiful, though the walking was tiring. I would definitely like to see more. Are you going to make a journey soon? Mmmm, no. Well, not very far. My family are going to visit my uncle next week, but he doesn’t live very far away.

Part 2 Student A Sample answer Both photos show people helping someone to get food. The first shows a young woman helping an old lady with her shopping – they are in a supermarket - and the second one shows some teenagers giving people food, I think. They are standing behind a table and are giving people bags with tins and packets of food in them. It looks like they are volunteers and are working for a charity whereas the woman in the first picture might be a relation of the old lady – perhaps her granddaughter. I think the young woman wants to help someone she knows and cares about – a relation or even a neighbour – while the volunteers want to help people generally – maybe poor people in their neighbourhood, but I don’t think they know them personally. Student B Sample answer Yes, I often help my grandfather. His legs hurt and so he finds it difficult to walk. My mum and I do his shopping for him most weekends. Student B The first picture shows what looks like a mother and daughter celebrating together. They both have a medal so it seems they have been in a race together. They are clearly proud of their medals. The other picture shows a group of teenage girls who have got their exam results. They look very pleased with them. The people in both pictures look very happy because they have achieved something difficult. I think the mother and daughter are enjoying their celebration because they have achieved something together and so can also celebrate together. The girls are enjoying their celebration because they are with their friends and have now finished school or college – so a stage in their life is completed. Student A Sample answer Of course! We celebrate all kinds of things together – but especially birthdays and the beginning of school holidays! We always have a small party for birthdays and meet up somewhere special like our favourite cafe to celebrate. Part 3 Sample answer Student A: Which would you prefer to discuss first? Student B: I think meeting up with friends is something everyone looks forward to in their break, so how about that? Student A: OK. Well, catching up with friends is an important part of the day for most people and if they have to go to activities they might not be able to do this. Student B: I agree, socialising is just as important as working. So is needing to relax and having a rest from lessons. I don’t think being busy all the time is important. Student A: Yes, but I suppose that some people don’t use the time well and waste the time or get bored in breaks, and if the school provides activities which you can choose to go to that might be a good thing for them. Student B: That’s a good point. If people could choose how to use the time that would be ok, though I don’t think many people would choose to continue to learn! Student A: But don’t forget, some activities can be fun and might help you to learn things as well. Student B: That’s very true – like crafts or using computers. I think it would be nice to be able to choose if you want to do activities with your friends but the school shouldn’t make you do it. Photocopiable © Pearson Education Limited 2019

Student A: So do you agree that we think it could be nice to have activities during break, but it is not very important for the school to provide them? Student B: Yes, that’s right. Student A: I think we both agree that having a choice of what to do in your break is the most important reason? Student B: Yes, a choice of interesting and useful activities would be good to have because students can decide themselves what to do with their break time. Student A: Definitely – people might not be happy if they are forced to do something. After all, breaks are supposed to be time when people have a bit of a rest in the middle of the school day. Part 4 Some people say students don’t need any breaks at school. What do you think? Sample answer Student A: I completely disagree. We all need a break and a rest from school work in the middle of lessons. And a chance to meet our friends outside the classroom. School isn’t just about academic work, but about socialising with people our own age as well. Student B: I suppose some people think the time at school would be shorter without breaks, but I agree with you that the day would be hard work without them. If students have breaks at school, how long do you think they should be? Student B: We have two short breaks of 30 minutes each. I think I would prefer one longer break – say an hour. It would be more useful and relaxing. Student A: I’m not so sure, I like to be able to go outside the classroom for a short while after every two to three lessons. Though I can see that an hour or so would be more useful if you want to do activities as well as eat your food. In your opinion, is the school day too long, or not long enough? Student A: Our school day is about right, I think. If it was longer I would get very tired and if it was shorter we wouldn’t have time for fun lessons like music, PE and art. Student B: You are right about that. We are lucky to have those kinds of lessons – I know some schools do have a shorter day but they do fewer activity lessons and they are both useful and fun to have. Some schools provide lots of opportunities for students to take part in team sports. Is this a good idea? Student B: I believe that is a great idea. Team sports are fun, healthy and teach you to cooperate with other people. Student A: I completely agree. Even if you are not very good at sport, team sports are fun to do with your friends and to watch as well.
