WEEKEND ARTS REVIEW: FILMS
А. The Class
The Class is about a young teacher who works at a school in a poor area of Paris and his difficult students. The story was originally a book written by Francois Begaudeau. The film tells the sad story of how a teacher tries to teach his class of teenage students but fails, because the students don’t respect education or teachers, and because they have no desire to learn. Everyone who stars in the film (including Begaudeau, who plays himself) is a non-professional. People expect The Class to be boring because the teacher-student theme has appeared in films many times before, but it isn’t. It is an absolutely brilliant film and no one should miss it.
B. Slumdog Millionaire
Director Danny Boyle’s Slumdog Millionaire is the story of Jamal, a poor boy in India, who goes on the TV show ‘Who wants to be a millionaire?’. The story was originally a prize-winning novel by Indian author Vikas Swarup. Jamal wins the TV show. But before he does, they take him to a police station because the police think that he is cheating. While the police ask Jamal questions, we see events from Jamal’s life which explain why he knows the answers.
At one point, the creators of Slumdog Millionaire had decided not to show it in film theatres, and just make it into a DVD. Luckily they changed their minds, because this film is now an international hit!
C. American Teen
American Teen is a documentary film by director Nanette Burstein. Burnstein filmed the lives of five teenagers, who go to a school in Indiana, USA. She followed the students filming their everyday lives for a year, because she wanted to show what it is like to be a teenager in America today.
American Teen is an enjoyable documentary, but sometimes it doesn’t feel true to life. In fact, some film critics think that Burstein gave the teens lines to learn. But in interviews, the teenagers have always said that the film is 100% real-life and no one is acting.
Whether real-life or not, American Teen is an entertaining look at young people today.
Which film (A, B, or C) …
39 is extremely popular all over the world? B
40 is about someone trying but not succeeding? A
41 does not seem realistic to some people? C
42 was first a very successful book? B
43 is about daily life experiences? C
44 is interesting even though the plot is not original? A
45 was not going to play in cinemas at first? B
Listening
G. Listen to some people talking about music on a radio programme and match the speakers (1-5) to the statements (A-E).
A The speaker enjoys going to concerts. 48 Speaker 3
В The speaker is not sure he/she is talented enough. 50 Speaker 5
C The speaker only likes listening to a particular type of music. 49 Speaker 4
D The speaker’s family inspired him/her to become a professional musician. 46 Speaker 1
E The speaker feels nervous about performing in public. 47 Speaker 2

CouchSurfing – a different kind of travel
experience
by
Emma Jackson
I love travelling abroad, but two years ago I
didn’t have much cash
to spend on my holiday. At first, I was planning to go camping again, but then
a friend suggested an alternative:
CouchSurfing. I had no idea what that was, so she explained. ‘CouchSurfers’ are
people who stay as guests
in other people’s homes for
free, and visit the
sights in the local area. You can do the things that most tourists do,
like sunbathing on the beach or sightseeing in the town centre. Or your host could give you a
language lesson, teach you how to cook local delicacies, or take you to places that visitors
never find. It sounded much more fun than my other holidays, so I joined the
website and sent emails to about twenty hosts in France and Spain right away.
A few days later, I already had ten replies.
After a week or two of emails, I made arrangements with four hosts in three
different cities. I’m quite talkative
and they seemed very friendly, so I wasn’t concerned about spending time with strangers. Two
weeks later, I was arriving in Paris, and meeting my first host, Claudette.
Over the next ten days, I stayed in four very
different homes, improved
my foreign languages, and made some great new friends. Sometimes the places
where I stayed were basic – a sofa to sleep on, or even just a floor, but
sometimes they were luxurious – much nicer than the hostels that I usually go
to. I think it was probably the cheapest and most interesting holiday I’ve ever
had!
I’ve done CouchSurfing again twice
since then: in Italy, and here in the UK. I’ll definitely do it again. In fact,
I’m going on a trip to South America next year. And I’ve had five visitors at
my place, including Claudette. I’ve discovered that hosting is as much fun as exploring a new place. CouchSurfing
is a fantastic experience. Try it some time!

CouchSurfing – a different kind of travel
experience
by
Emma Jackson
I love travelling abroad, but two years ago I
didn’t have much cash
to spend on my holiday. At first, I was planning to go camping again, but then
a friend suggested an alternative:
CouchSurfing. I had no idea what that was, so she explained. ‘CouchSurfers’ are
people who stay as guests
in other people’s homes for
free, and visit the
sights in the local area. You can do the things that most tourists do,
like sunbathing on the beach or sightseeing in the town centre. Or your host could give you a
language lesson, teach you how to cook local delicacies, or take you to places that visitors
never find. It sounded much more fun than my other holidays, so I joined the
website and sent emails to about twenty hosts in France and Spain right away.
A few days later, I already had ten replies.
After a week or two of emails, I made arrangements with four hosts in three
different cities. I’m quite talkative
and they seemed very friendly, so I wasn’t concerned about spending time with strangers. Two
weeks later, I was arriving in Paris, and meeting my first host, Claudette.
Over the next ten days, I stayed in four very
different homes, improved
my foreign languages, and made some great new friends. Sometimes the places
where I stayed were basic –a sofa to sleep on, or even just a floor, but
sometimes they were luxurious – much nicer than the hostels that I usually go
to. I think it was probably the cheapest and most interesting holiday I’ve ever
had!
I’ve done CouchSurfing again twice
since then: in Italy, and here in the UK. I’ll definitely do it again. In fact,
I’m going on a trip to South America next year. And I’ve had five visitors at
my place, including Claudette. I’ve discovered that hosting is as much fun as exploring a new place. CouchSurfing
is a fantastic experience. Try it some time!
