Nowadays it has become very easy to access music via CDs, the radio or by downloading your favourite tracks from the Internet. In fact, it is quite easy to forget how music is made and people these days seldom go to hear music being performed. In my opinion, we should make an effort to go to concert and support musicians. We should recognize and enjoy their talent.

Such programmes are surprisingly educative and they approach topics in a light-hearted way. This may be why they are so popular.

I have been working as a professional songwriter from the age of 16. there was nothing else I wanted to do – I didn’t consider any other career as it just felt right to do what I di best. I also did a lot of singing in my teens and took private lessons to improve my technique. But I always preferred making music, rather than performing it. I know it is a competitive type of job and that I am lucky I am successful.
Things weren’t always easy, though. I had to work hard to get to where I am today. I started doing small gigs for £30 a night with a free meal thrown in. I sang in various eating places wherever I could. I didn’t want to do that for the rest of my life, so I started putting all my energy into writing songs. Once I had written some material, I then made some demo recordings and sent them off to record companies.
Script 1
Months passed and, when I hadn’t heard anything, I started to lose hope and then I got a call offering me a contract. I couldn’t believe it! Overnight I was rich! They even bought me my own recording studio. I went a little crazy with the money. I didn’t save very much of it. I moved into a nice new house and bought lots of furniture. And then the problems started.
I was so young but I had clear ideas about what kind of music I wanted to make. I wanted to do everything myself and so I ended up working far too hard. After eight months of working 16-hour days I lost all my energy and couldn’t write anything. It was strange – I felt that I had lost my enthusiasm and my creativity. I had just finished my second album and was working on my third. I was so tired because of all the gigs I was giving to promote the second album. I travelled all over the country.
Script 2
It is really hard to be on the road all the time – not a glamorous life at all! I wanted to keep going for the sake of my fans but I had to take a break. My sister lives abroad, in Spain and she invited me over there for a while. It was just what I needed – a chance to relax and get my energy back, let go of all the stress that had been building up. I had time to forget about work and think about myself. I realized that work isn’t everything. You need to have time to do other things, you need a balance. Yes, I still wanted to have a successful career but I also wanted to have time to enjoy myself – go out with friends, for example. Luckily, my best friends were still there for me and wanted to give me support. They realized that I was still the same person, that fame couldn’t change who I was inside. When I got back from my trip to Spain, I took up yoga. I felt much stronger as a result.
Script 3
I worked hard too, but I made sure I had enough free time. I stopped giving gigs and concentrated on my third album. It is nearly finished now. When it comes out, I think I’ll take a longer holiday. I fancy going to India. They do yoga holidays there, you know. I also want to travel more in the future – there’s so much to do and see!
My advice to anyone wanting to go into the music business is this: follow your heart and everything will be OK. Work hard, but don’t let your health suffer. Take good care of yourself – surround yourself with family and friends! I hope you will be as lucky as me!
Script 4

Your teacher has asked you to write a review of a film you saw recently and you enjoyed. Write your review (100-140 words).
STAR TREK
The new Star Trek fil, directed by JJ Abrams, is a spectacular recreation and retelling of the original tale of the successful TV series of the ‘60s. It is a fast-paced action adventure which introduces the characters in their youth and reveals their backgrounds and their first mission onboard the USS Enterprise.
The plot is both gripping and interesting for the Trekkie and non-Trekkie audiences alike, full of surprising twisted and a touching love story. The filmmaker gives each character their moment of glory within the plot. The film takes us through their first mission to save the Earth from an evil visitor from the future, Nero.
The casting of the characters is brilliant Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto and Eric Bana as Nero, give a fresh look at the original characters. Furthermore, the special effects are simply out of this world!
All in all, Star Trek is sure to win over old Trekkie fans and make new ones as well. Its plot keeps you on the edge of your seat until the very end. It’s definitely a filn for the big screen, so don’t wait for it on DVD.
