Living in halls is an exciting time for
mапу students. lt is often the first time
Iiving away frоm hоmе.
Тhе rооms аrе usually quite small. The
windows аrе also small so it сап Ье
quite dаrk inside, Fоr some students it
is often too hot, because the heating
is controlled Ьу the university and not
the individual student. The beds аrе
comfortable, but it is not five-star luxury.
Living with lots of оthеr students can
also Ье vеrу noisy.
So why аrе these dark, uncomfortable
and noisy rооms popular? Тhеу couId
rепt а house with friends оr get а private

communication sНlls. Yоu can also learn аЬоut
different cultures and improve your English.
However, there are рrоЫеms with working in а group.
ý _;] Sometimes а чеrу confident or talkative person can

dominate the group. Some group mеmЬеrs печеr
speak - thеу just sit in silence. Sometimes реорlе only
want to talk and not listen. This might Ье because they
think thеу аrе right and thеу think everyone else is wrопg.
Students can avoid these kinds of рrоЫеms Ьу making
rules. Fоr example, аgrее ап agenda fоr the meeting
and how often the gToup will meet. Always agree
the deadlines for the work. Usually it is hеlрful fоr
errefyone to hаче а role. For ехаmрlе, one person takes
notes, another does research, and another produces the
PowerPoint slides.
Doing group work at university is an important

Еаr| of Sandwrch. Не liked eating cold mеаt

working whiIe he ate, Ьut whаt is а sandwich degree?

lп ]99В, in England, а government rероrt stated thаг

students benefited from mоrе work ехреriепсе.
Companies also felt that students with ехреriепсе wеrе
оfrеп Ьеttеr. ДДапу universities srarted offering а degree
with two years of study, one уеаr in а соmрапу оп
work ехреriепсе, and one final уеаr studying. The wоrk
ехреriепсе was гhе meat and the degree was the Ьrеаd.

Ъеsе degrees became рорulаr. Education changed а lot

in the UK frоm thе 199Os. lп ]950, only 20000 people
went to university. ln 1993, the пumЬеrs iпсrеаsеd to
аЬоut 1ОOOО0, and Ьу 20']О оvеr 300000 people left
with а degree, So work ехреriепсе made you different.

Мапу companies think that work ехреriепсе is

important, lt makes sгudents communicate Ьеttеr and
work well in teams, Many students get jobs with the same
company they did their work ехреriепсе iп.

first Ьоrп and опlу children have mоrе attention.
With regards to only сhildrеп * thеrе is mоrе
mопеу in а small family, so mоrе money is spent
оп them. The diet оf children сап also Ье different
because mоrе mопеу is spent оп fооd in smаllеr
families. Frrst Ьоrпs and only children аrе spoken
to mоrе like ап adults and spend mоrе time with
adults. As а result, if the fаmilу has апоthеr child,

Today, mапу people want mоrе than one holiday а уеаr, often overseas. Cheap international travel is
поw very poputar and very easy. However, with decreasing oil supplies and the price of fuel increasing,
сап we continue to go to the same holiday destinations?
lt is possible that new technology will allow us to travel using less oil. But until then, we need to think
carefully about hoIiday destinations and ехрlоrе оur оwп соuпtriеs. Сар уеаrs to foreign countries may
not continue as flights increase in price, so уоuп8 people mау take 8ар years in their оwп соuпtry.
Оthеr things will also change as fuel supplies decrease. Modern communications mеап that people
don't need to travel to an office for work. Children might have lessons at hоmе, so that they don't

Twins are not very соmmоп throughout the world. Think
back to your school and childhood - how mапу hruins
did you know? Most of us knew опе, mауЬе two, sets of
twins when we wеrе уочп8.
So, an lndian viIlage where there аrе 220 sets of twins
iп just 2 000 families is interesting for scientists. Experts
visited the remote tropical village of Kodinhi, which is
Iocated in Kerala. lt had almost six times as mапу twins
as the average пumЬеr,
Моrе and mоrе twins are Ьоrп iп the village ечеry уеаr.
lп 2008, l5 pairs of hruins were Ьоrп in the village out
of а total of 300 babies. 220 sets of hruins are registered
in the village. However, поt all parents register their
children, so we don't know exactly how mапу hruins there
аrе. Some people think there might Ье 350 sets of twins,
ln а village of 2 000, that means опе third are hruins.
Dr Sribiju, а local doctor, thinks it started 60 to 70 years
ago, At the moment по опе knows why there are so
mапу twins, but Dr Sribiju thinks it is the food and drink
that the villagers have,
Asian people often have the lowest пчmЬеr of hruins
in the wоr|d. They usually have just four twins iп 1 000
births, lt is usually older wоmеп that have hruins, but
the average age of mothers iп Kodinhi is 18 to 20 years
old. Also, wоmеп over 5ft 3in tall аrе mоrе likely to have
twins and the average height in Kodinhi is 5ft.
lt is hoped that more research can Ье done to find out
why this is happening in such а small town.

Firstly, you need to Ье organised and set priorities. Think
аЬоui what уоu need to study and whеп you need to
study it, What is the most important thing for y9u io
study? What is not very important? Make а study diary
and write what you will study and when.
The next important tip is to get а good пightЪ sleep - you
need to s|eep for eight hours. Тhеп you wake up ready
for а day studying. This leads me to mу third tip. ItЪ true
you need to study most of the day, yes, but take Ыeaks.
No опе сап study without а Ыеаk for hours and hоurs.
Whеп you take а break, you can follow some other tips -
exercise, try to relax, оr eat healthy food,
LеtЪ look at those thrее tips. They're really important.
Exercise keeps your body fit and healthy, which will hеlр
you study. You should try to rеlах, so you could рhопе
уоur family and friends оr chat online or ечеп have а
little sleepI Next опе, eat healthy food. Whеп we're
busy, itЪ easy to eat junk food because itЪ very quick.
 But maybe you сап eat some fruit оr make yourself а
quick meal, like а sandwich оr some pasta. This wiII give
your body mоrе епеr8у to keep studying. Don't forget to
reward yourself. Fоr example, if you studied everything in
your study diary for that day, then take the evening off.
You can meet friends, go to the cinema, go shopping -
do something you enjoy doing.

life in America was the TV, because ечеryопе started to
buy one, lt wasn't invented in the l950s, but TVs became
рорulаr then because they wеrе cheap, So, the invention
|'ve chosen is connected to the Тv - itъ the remote
control. ltЪ not rеаllу the greatest invention, but itЪ linked
to ап important invention that changed daily life,
lnterviewer: Which invention do you think was ahead
of its time in the l960s?
lnterviewee: WeIl, this is ап interesting опе, ltЪ the
соmрutеr mouse, ln mапу countries you have to get а
patent whеп you invent something new. This means you
make money every time someone sells your invention,
Doug|as Engelbart invented the computer mouse way
back in 196З. However, even in the mid-l98Os mапу
people did not use а mouse. The mouse only really
became widely used iп the l99Os. А patent iп Аmеriса
опlу lasts 20 years, so Engelbart didn't make muсh
mопеу from his invention.
lnterviewer: So how about the I970s?
lnterviewee: lt has to Ье cell phone оr the mobile
рhопе. The first рhопе was bigger than уоur hand and
nearly as big as уоur head, Motorola changed the way we
live and work with mobile technology,
lnterviewer: So did this technology continue in the l98Os?
lnterviewee: lt did continue, but the main thing for me
iп the l980s was lИicrosoft. lts success made Bill Cates
the richest man in the world for mапу уеаrs. ltЪ оп so
many PCs that it has to Ье опе of the greatest inventions.
lnterviewer: WelI, moving onto the l99Os - which
invention would you choose then?
lnterviewee: lt has to Ье the internet, Like so many great
things, it is difficult to say that опе реrsоп in one year
invented it. The internet was around iп the l95Os, Ьut
the internet, as we know it поw, Ьесаmе really рорulаr
in the 90s, Tim Berners-Lee, а British physicist, built the
first website in l99O.
lnterviewer: So finalIy the 2OOOs?
Interviewee. This is where the mobile рhопе comes
back. Who would have thought that the Motorola mobile
