For questions 1-4, choose the correct answer a or b.

My sister always spends a lot of time on the computer and I don’t have the time. I don’t think that’s fair. What should I do?

Ann B., Norwich

Your sister may spend longer hours on the computer because of her schoolwork. If she is older than you, she may have more difficult homework to do.

You should talk to your parents and your sister. Tell your parents how you feel. They may not know that your sister spends a long time on the computer, or they may think it is fair.

Computers are interesting and it’s easy to forget about the time when you are on the Internet or playing a game. Some families buy a timer. Then all people in the family can get a bit of computer time.

1 What is the girl’s problem?

a Her sister is not fair.

b Her sister uses the computer longer.

2 Why is it happening?

a Perhaps the girl’s homework is easier than her sister’s homework.

2.1. What video games are popular? Find 4 games.

     Many people in Britain love video games, but some people love them very much. British adults love video games and they play on their computers for more than four hours a day and they take their computers on holiday because they can’t live without them.

But what about young people? 35% of British children (who are thirteen years old) play video games every day, and 7% play for 30 hours a week or more. It means that, at this moment, a lot of children are playing video games. The children who play 30 hours or more may start to get bad marks at school or forget about their friends. Some children even become angry if they can’t play.

What games are these children playing?

Helen: I am playing my favourite game – the new Lord of the Rings. I often play it because there is a lot of action in it and there are some bits of the film in it.  It is just as good as the film.

Ken: I am enjoying The Simpsons game now. I bought it three months ago and I have played it every day since then. I can do many tricks in the game. It’s great!

Beth: I love The Sims. I love to help other people. But now I am playing Sonic the Hedgehog. I like to use my head when I play computer games.

The Club magazine organized a writing competition My worst trip. Here is Robert’s story.

2.1 Robert’s story is mixed up. Put it in the correct order.

A. Last summer I took a trip to London. My friend and I wanted to spend two weeks in this beautiful city. From Berlin we went by train. Then we took the ship to Dover. From Dover to Victoria station in London we went by bus. The last part of our trip we wanted to travel by taxi, and we got in one of those funny British taxis.

B. “Oh, in London there are six Lancaster Hotels. Can you tell me the address?” asked the taxi driver.

My friend answered, “No, sorry, we can’t. Take us to the next hotel, please.”

C. The driver asked, “Where are you going to?” I said, “One moment.” But I couldn’t find the slip of paper. On the slip there was the name and address of our hotel. “Oh, dear! I have lost it!” I thought. My friend remembered the name and said, “Lancaster Hotel, please.”

D. You have to pay £ 25,” said the driver. I opened my bag. But what was that? A little slip with an address. I thought, “You are silly” and said to the driver, “I have found the address and the name of the hotel. Take us to the Manchester hotel, 45 Bayswater Road, please.”

E. But it wasn’t the right hotel. We were driving from one hotel to another but there was no room in any of the hotels for us. It was six o’clock in the evening and the taxi driver wanted to go home.

      Текст для аудирования:

We are touring around England. I’m enjoying the trip. It’s great. We are staying at a London hotel. Yesterday we saw a lot of interesting places in the capital. I think the museums are wonderful. We also went on some trips to other cities: Windsor, and Oxford for example. The trip to Windsor was an interesting experience. Best of all I liked the theme park, Legoland in Windsor. It was fantastic! Well, the weather is nice too. It hasn’t rained and it has been warm. I think we’ll come to London next year, too. But we won’t stay at the same hotel. It isn’t very good. On the whole, this is the best holiday I’ve ever had.
