I really want to work but in my country young people can't work untill the age of 15.
It's illegal!
So I can't get a part-time job because I'm only 14.
Lots of my friends are 15 and have got part-time jobs.
When we go out, they've got money and to buy clothes. Some of them even save their money
Sure, my parents give me pocket money but it's just not fair.
I want to work!
Hey Jewel, that's tough that you can't do part-time work!
Things here in Canada are very different from South Africa.
I'm the same age as you and I work in a bread shop on the weekend.
I put the bread on the shelves and help the customers.
I mostly work on Saturdays, for four hours.
Sometimes I work Sunday too when they need me.
The money's not too bad and I can save for things.
It's legal here for 12-14-years-olds to work eight hours at weekends and two hours after schoo
Hi guys.
I read your posts.
I'm younger than you two - I'm only 13 - but I work every weekend and it's legal!
I live in New Zealand on a farm with my family.
At weekends, I help my mom and dad on the farm.
And they pay me!
When I take food to the sheep, I drive the tractor.
It's cool!
Kids on farms here can drive tractors when they're 12!
Luckily I don't get up when my dad does - at five in the morning.
Kids here can't work untill after six o'clock!

SPEAKING'S ACTIVITIES
Hi, Anna. How was your school today?
Hi, Cristina. It was a great day at school today. I have history on Tuesdays - it's my favourite
Oh no, I hate history. The teacher always gives us lots of homework to do at the weekend.
I love getting up early because I can walk my dog before I go to school. Do you get up early,
Of course not! I like going to bed late and getting up late.
Hi, Phil. Did you see the One Direction concert on TV last night?
No, I can't stand One Direction.
But Phil, they're brilliant!
I don't think so. I prefer rock music!

Flying machines
For many centuries, people thought humans could fly like the birds.
The famous artist Leonardo da Vinci believed this when he studied flight in the 1480s.
He designed many 'ornithopters' - machines with wings that go up and down like a bird's.
We now know that humans cannot fly like this.
Two brothers, Joseph and Jacques Montgolfer, made the world's first hot-air balloons.
They did this by making a fire under a silk bag so it filled with hot air.
Their first passengers were a sheep, a chicken and a duck.
Later that year, 1783, they sent the first ever human on a flight.
Between 1799 and 1850, an Englishman called George Cayley designed many gliders.
One of them had a box under the wings, like a boat with wheels.
Some people say a ten-year-old boy flew in this for a few metres.
George Cayley never flew in his gliders.
In the 1890s, a German engineer, Otto Lilienthal, improved gliders even more.
After more than 2,500 flights, Otto Lilienthal died in an accident when he was flying one of h
In 1900, two brothers, Orville and Wilbur Wright, from Ohio, USA, began to study the work
First they built their own glider.
Then, in 1902, they started designing an engine for it.
On 17th December 1903, Orville Wright flew their plane, The flyer, for the first time.
The flight lasted 12 seconds, and the plane travelled about 36.6 meters.
Then, in 1905, Wilbur flew for 38 km.
He only stopped because he had no more fuel.
Humans were finally able to fly!
Planes improved a lot in the 20th century and are now a part of all our lives.
