This is me
Hi. My name is Joseph and I live in Manchester with my family. I’m nine years old. I
have two brothers – Martin and Jeremy. Martin is twelve and Jeremy is fifteen. I
share a room with Martin and Jeremy has his own room. My dad works in a big office
and my mum works in a bicycle shop. We live in a big house on a nice street in a
small town. It’s not in the country, but that’s OK. We’ve got two pets – Clarence the
dog and Mandy the cat. My Uncle John and my Aunt Eleanor live on the same street
as us. I don’t have any other aunts or uncles because my mum is an only child. But
Uncle John and Aunt Eleanor have two children. They’re my cousins – Vincent and
Zoe. Vincent is ten and Zoe is fourteen. We go to the same school and we like
playing computer games together. My grandparents live on another street in the
same town. They’re quite old and they don’t work now. Sometimes we all eat
together on Sundays and afterwards we watch a movie. We’re never lonely with all
our relatives!

Life on a farm
Do you hate life in the city? Do you think life on a farm is great, easy and quiet? Well,
think again. Life on a farm is great, but it’s also very difficult!
Magda and Pierre live on a farm in France with their parents. Every day all the family
wake up very early in the morning and they feed the animals and collect the milk and
eggs. Then Magda and Pierre brush the horses. Their dad takes the sheep to the
field. After that they go to school. When they come back, they help their parents plant
vegetables and pick fruit.
After lunch, they do their homework for the next day and then Pierre moves the
sheep back to the farm and Magda feeds the ducks. A lot of people visit their farm
because they love the animals there and they want to buy fresh fruit and vegetables.
Everyone loves their old goat, Bud. Bud doesn’t play or run very much now, but he
loves people and people love him.

Marathi School: Pupil Website

Welcome to our new school website for pupils only! It's a website for all the pupils of
the school. Only pupils work on it, no teachers at all! I’m Ted Black and I’m the editor
of the site, but a lot of pupils write articles and reviews, too. There are four main
reporters for our site: Nicky Grass, Petra Swindon, Novak Bregovic and Sasha
Alexander.
Our website is about what happens at school, like seminars, concerts, school
matches and games, and many other things. If you want to know what’s happening at
the school, this is the place to look for news.
There are many sections on the website. If you want to know about the everyday
news, click on the ‘News’ section. If you’re interested in how the school teams are
doing, click on ‘School Sports’. There are also reviews of school plays and concerts
in the ‘Arts and Reviews’ section. You can find other things that are interesting, too.
For example, there are links to other schools’ websites and a special section where
you can write your own articles, poems and short stories.
Finally, if you have an opinion you want to share with the rest of the school, or a
question about something, please send us an email or a letter.
We hope you find the new website interesting and useful!

Travel and holidays

A Doris
I love travelling and I love travelling to faraway places. I go on holiday every summer
with my family and last year we went all the way to Zimbabwe to see all the animals.
We drove into the countryside in a big bus and took photographs of the things we
saw through the windows. The lions and elephants were fantastic!
B Julie
Studying other countries is my favourite lesson at school. I like studying continents
and countries, and I like hills and lakes and not big houses or churches. I don’t really
like sightseeing when I go on holiday because I don’t like history very much. Last
year we went to South America and we saw some beautiful countries, like Venezuela
and Brazil.
C Roger
I like walking around a city on my own and seeing all the little places where people
live and work and go shopping. I don’t want to see the big historical places very
much, because they’re full of tourists and you don’t see the real city with the real
people in those places – even if you have a tour guide. I like the cities in Mexico and
Hungary.
D James
What I like to do on holiday is … nothing! I like sitting in the sun looking at the view. It
doesn’t matter if I’m at the seaside or in a city or in the mountains. I like to sit and
think and read a book, but nothing too difficult because I don’t want to get tired! I like
Egypt and Spain because they’re very hot countries.
E Audrey
My holidays are full of action – swimming, walking, climbing. I love them all! I don’t
get tired, and I think it’s really exciting to do something you can’t do in your life at
home. Sometimes we go into the mountains and walk for days and we don’t see
anyone else the whole time! I like Oman and Kenya, and one year we went to
Norway and lived in the snow for a week. It was cold but it was the best holiday I ever
had!

Petra’s blog
Hi! I’m Petra. Welcome to my blog. Here I write about what I do, how I feel and
anything funny or strange that happens to me. I hope you have fun reading it!
Farm life!
Last weekend my family and I visited a farm. We had a great time! We saw lots of
baby animals – chicks, lambs, calves. It was fantastic! I rode on a pony – his name
was Tony and he was very sweet and cute. I loved him. I also helped the farmer feed
the chickens and my sister collected the eggs, and the milk from the cows – that was
very funny to see!
Difficult week!
We’re having exams at school and I’m studying and studying and studying! Life is
very hard! Why do we have tests? I hate them – really I do! I’m getting bored and

school tests? Write and tell me your views and opinions.

problems you have at school or at home. I’m the editor of the newspaper, so please

More strange facts about animals

If you think people are funny or do funny and strange things, think again! Read about
what we found when we put the phrase ‘strange animals’ into Google TM.
Can you walk underwater? It’s difficult, isn’t it? Well, there’s an animal that can do
that. Armadillos can walk underwater, but they can’t swim! And while we’re talking
about armadillos – how many hours do they sleep a day? You’ll never guess! They
sleep about 18.5 hours a day!
Now, you know that sharks have got lots of teeth, but how many is that? It depends
on the kind of shark, of course, but they can have up to 3,000 teeth! Lots of teeth fall
out, but sharks grow new teeth all the time. Imagine a shark at the dentist! Big
problem!
Another strange thing! People sleep with their eyes closed, right? Well, here’s an
animal that doesn’t do that. Dolphins don’t close their eyes when they go to sleep!
Strange but true!
Here’s another strange fact. Do you know which animals never jump? Elephants!
They can’t jump, but they can run quite fast when they want.
And finally, which animal can’t see colours? Can you guess? No? Cows! They only
see things in black and white, but they don’t think that life is boring!

Working at the airport

A Frank works at the airport, but not in the air – on the ground. He collects the bags
and puts them on the planes when they’re ready to leave. When a plane lands, he
takes all the bags off and drives them to the place where the passengers can collect
them. ‘It’s a tiring job, but I like driving my truck,’ he says. ‘Sometimes the weather is
really bad, but I feel like a part of a big machine.’
B Roger has a very important job. He sits at the front of the plane and controls
everything. He always wanted to fly and now he’s doing his dream job. ‘I love flying,’
says Roger. ‘All the passengers rely on me, because sometimes it can be dangerous
– for example, there could be an emergency during take-off or landing.’
C Arthur is at the airport a lot. Sometimes you can see him waiting for his bags or
waiting to get on a plane or showing his passport as he goes through security. ‘It
feels like I’m always catching a plane, going through security checks or collecting my
baggage,’ he says. ‘I have to travel all over the world for my job and so I catch a lot of
planes.’
D Suzie is Roger’s wife and she sometimes works on the plane that he flies. She
wears nice clothes and looks after the passengers on the flight. She serves them
drinks and food and smiles all the time. She says it’s a tiring job, but she likes helping
people and she likes working with Roger. They are both away from home a lot, but
they are together when they work on the same flight.
E Bruce’s job is very important, because he keeps everyone safe. He works at the
airport, but he doesn’t fly and he doesn’t work at the information desk. He checks all
the passengers, and he helps them through the scanner at security. He is there in
any emergency to help everyone.

Family problems
Sometimes I argue with my parents because they don’t let me do what I want. We
disagree a lot, and it’s not very nice in my house when they refuse to give me
permission. They think I’m just a child, but I’m growing up really fast. They don’t allow
me to go out on a school night, for example. But I’m fifteen and I want to grow up!
Why don’t they let me? When I was younger I couldn’t look after myself, but now I’m
old enough.
They shout and sometimes I cry, but they still don’t let me do what I want. It’s not
easy to get on with them when they don’t trust me. They say they worry about me all
the time, but I don’t think that’s reasonable. It’s not fair. And then they have all these
rules, and I have to do what the rules say or I get into more trouble. I must feed the
dog and do the washing up, and I should always do my homework before I watch TV.
But my relationship with my parents isn’t bad, I suppose. They let me go out at the
weekends. At the weekend I can do whatever I want!

The Fox and the Grapes

One day, a fox is walking through some fields. It’s hot because it’s summer and the
fox is hungry and thirsty. He wants to find something to eat and drink, but there’s
nothing there. Suddenly, he sees some grapes (a kind of fruit) and they look tasty
and juicy. So he thinks, ‘Mmm … those grapes are just what I need because I want to
eat and drink.’ So he jumps and jumps, but he can’t get them because they are too
high. He tries again and again, but he can’t touch the grapes. Eventually, the fox
gives up and leaves. As he leaves, he says, ‘It’s OK. I don’t want those grapes. I’m
certain they weren’t nice after all!’
The Boy and the Wolf

One day, a boy who is looking after some sheep in a field near the village is bored.
So he decides to do something to pass the time. He starts calling ‘Help! Help! A wolf
is here. He wants to eat my sheep!’ The people of the village run to help the boy and
they discover that there is no wolf. The boy told them a lie! They go back to the
village very angry with the boy.
The next day the same thing happens. The boy is bored and he starts shouting for
help again. Again the villagers come to help him and again they discover that the boy
is telling them lies. The same thing happens a third and a fourth time, and now the
villagers are very angry and upset with the boy!
Then, one day a wolf really comes to eat the boy’s sheep! The boy cries and shouts
for help again, but this time nobody comes to help him because they think he’s not
telling the truth!

A Chuck
I like big animals, I don’t like cats or goldfish or birds. When we go to the zoo, I like
looking at the elephants. They’re the biggest and slowest animals in the zoo. I’m not
scared of big animals, but I’m scared of really little ones – like mice! Just like Walt
Disney!
B Vince
I have a big garden at home and in the summer there’s lots of sunshine and flowers and
the butterflies come out. We’ve got six new puppies as well, and we all play in the
garden together. When they get older, they’ll be bigger and stronger, but now they’re
weaker than me and I can run faster than them!
C Polly
My favourite animal is the donkey. They’re the slowest and friendliest animal, and the
food they like best is … chocolate. Last year, I asked my dad if he could buy a donkey,
but he said I can’t have one because we haven’t got anywhere to keep him.
D Angela
Some people think I have a strange pet, but I don’t think he’s strange. My pet is a
python. He’s called Muscles, and he’s the biggest snake you’ve ever seen. He eats mice
and lives in a special box my dad bought. We knock on the glass to wake him up when
it’s time to feed him. He’s the most interesting pet you can imagine.
E Nick
The zoo is such a boring place ! It was more tiring than I thought it was going to be. My
dad was upset because it was more expensive than he thought, and my sister said it
wasn’t as enjoyable as she expected. Playing computer games is better than looking at
animals.

to go to university. We want to spend a lot of time playing music together. We have big
plans, and there won’t be time for university!
We have a CD and we wrote all the songs ourselves. We’re going to sell the CD at our
concerts. We’re playing tomorrow in our town, and after that there’s going to be a tour.
We’re travelling in our bus, but we’ll visit a lot of places. We’re going to show everyone
what we can do. We’re getting ready tonight. It’s going to be great!
When we’re famous, we’ll play big concerts. On this tour, we’re playing in small places,
but you can be sure we won’t forget the little places. So come to our concert tomorrow,
and one day, you’ll say ‘I knew them before they were famous!’

I want that job: Actress

This week’s ‘I want that job’ looks at the life of a young actress. We met 19-year-old
Emma Graph, who told us what it’s like to work on a movie as a young actress.

Yes. It’s great! I’m not a big star, like Catherine Zeta-Jones or Kirsten Dunst, but this
is my dream and maybe I’ll be a big star too one day! My role in this film isn’t very
big, but I like it and I think it’s great fun! It’s a small role – only six or seven scenes in
the film, but I think it’s quite important.

I play a waitress in a restaurant. People go there to eat and I serve them food and
talk to them. One day I hear some people talking and I tell the police what I heard.

Well, all the actors have to come here early to put on our costumes and make-up.
That’s great! I love make-up because when we finish, we don’t look like ourselves
anymore! I look at myself in the mirror and I see a totally different person! It’s
amazing!

Oh, tomorrow we are shooting a difficult scene. I’m coming here at half past five in
the morning to put on my make-up and costume. It takes a long time, you know!
Then, we’re practising the scene two or three times to prepare for the shoot. I’m not
speaking in this scene, but I’m serving customers and listening to what they say. The
director is meeting us at half past twelve. He’ll explain to us where to go and where
the cameras will be.

No, not really! It’s the beginning of my career, so I don’t get a lot of money, but I’m

My charity work
Hi, I’m Paul and I do a lot for charity. I like helping people, so I try to do many things.
Listen to some of the things I’ve done. I’ve parachuted out of an aeroplane. I’ve run a
marathon. I’ve sold things at a stall in a market. I’ve sold tickets to a bouncy castle at a
fair and I’ve been on a telethon loads of times. I was tired after the marathon and I was
really scared in the aeroplane, but I’m happy I did those things!
Next week, I’m cycling from London to Paris to raise money for a new charity which
helps people who can’t see very well. The money I raise will help someone to get better,
I hope. I haven’t cycled very much in my life, so it’s going to be very interesting. It’s a
long journey and I’ll be really tired, but I think it will be fun too.
There are lots of other things you can do to help people through charity. I’ve raised
money for schools. I’ve given money to poor people in Africa. I’ve helped to build a
school in South America. I enjoyed all of the things I’ve done. I love charity events, and I
love meeting people. Don’t waste your time watching TV or playing on your computer,
come and help!

Look to the Future!

This week Webchat asked its readers for their predictions about the future. This is
what fourteen-year-old Angelina told us.
1 _________
Oh, I don’t think it’ll be very different. In a month school will be over for the summer
and I’ll go to my grandparents’ village to spend the summer there. I’m sure it will be
great!
2 _________
Well, I think it’ll be almost the same. I’ll be a year older and school will be a bit more
difficult, but I don’t think anything else will change in a year. I play tennis and if I’m
good enough, I’ll play some tennis competitions. I hope I’ll win!
3 _________
Hmm … Well, a lot of things will be different. If I’m a good student, I’ll be at university.
I want to study to be a doctor. I know that’s a difficult thing to study so I’ll have to
work extremely hard to be successful!
4 _________
Really, I don’t know, but I know it will be very different. I’ll be twenty-four years old in
a decade. I hope I’ll have a job then and maybe I’ll be married. Perhaps I’ll still live at
home with my parents. I really have no idea!
5 _________
I think life will be very different in a century. Technology moves very fast – look how
different life is now from a hundred years ago! They didn’t have computers and
mobile phones and now we can’t even think about living without those things. If
technology continues to improve, perhaps we’ll have robots to help us. Maybe we’ll
have different ways of travelling, too!

A Do you dream of being rich and famous? I think everybody does at some point in
their lives! Well, I definitely do! I keep dreaming of what I’ll do if I ever become rich
and famous.
B If I become famous, my life will change a lot. People will know me and say hello to

with me! And if I become rich, I’ll have lots of nice clothes and a big house and a fast
car, too!
C But I think that if I become rich and famous, it’s also important to help people who
aren’t so lucky. So I’ll use some of my money to help others.

Federer. There, poor children will learn to read and write and maybe become good
athletes too. If they become famous athletes, then they can also help others!
E I don’t know how I’ll become rich and famous, but I’m going to try anyway. I’m good
at sports and I work hard to become better and better. And if I eventually become rich
and famous, then I’ll really try to help others. What about you? What will you do if you
become rich and famous?

What will the future be like?

In Teens of the World, we ask your views about different things every month. This
time we asked a few readers their opinions and predictions about the future. Here’s
what they told us.
A Martina, 13 Switzerland
Many things have changed in the recent past. Only thirty years ago people didn’t
have mobile phones and laptops weren’t very usual. Today, things have changed a
lot and technology is improving very fast. I think that in the future, people will have
flying cars and robots and we won’t have to go to work or the supermarket. We’ll
work from home and do our shopping on the internet. I’m certain that in a century, life
will be very different. Perhaps there won’t be so many illnesses and people will live a
very long time!
B Kylie, 14, USA

I think that life will be extremely different in a millennium. Perhaps people won’t look
like us. They’ll be taller and thinner and they won’t go out of their houses at all!
They’ll stay in all the time and will chat online and never meet other people. This has
already started happening in countries like Japan. Some children never leave their
rooms, not even to go to school! I think that’s very sad. Also, I’m afraid there won’t be
any animals left, because the planet is getting dirtier and dirtier. I’m worried that the
future won’t be a nice place to live in.
C Dennis, 12, Australia

I’m very excited about the future! Technology is improving very fast and things that
were impossible only a decade ago are now easy to do! Think about computers and
laptops and mobile phones and the internet. In my opinion, we’ll see great things in
the near future. Already, films have changed with 3D and special effects and our life
has become much easier with mobile phones and small laptops which we can take
with us everywhere! Perhaps in the near future, they’ll become so small that we can
have them on us or wear them like clothes! I can’t wait for the future to arrive!

Hi, my name’s Tony and I love travelling. When we go on holiday, we travel a really
long way, so we usually take the plane. You have to be at the airport quite early to
