Hi Jose,
Thank you for your email. Of course I can answer your
questions!
When I’m at home I spend time with my family. We eat
together and talk about our day. We all play musical
instruments, so sometimes we play music together!
I like action films and I watch them on my computer. There’s
a good TV programme for people my age and I always watch
that after school. It’s about trying new hobbies.
Yes, I’m going to go on holiday in July with my family. We’re
going to visit my grandparents in the mountains. It should
be fun!
Write soon!

7 Model answer
I’m not sure that I completely agree with the idea that going
to a small village school is better than going to a large one in a
city. In fact, there are benefits to both kinds of school.
Perhaps one thing that is better about small village schools
than larger ones is that students are likely to receive more
individual attention from teachers. Therefore students may
make faster progress as a result.
However, due to the greater number of students at a larger
school, students have contact with more people and have the
chance to make more friends than they might at a smaller
school. This may improve their social skills and provide them
with a wider range of experiences.
Larger schools are also more likely to have teachers for
individual subjects rather than a single class teacher for every
subject, so students have access to more specialist knowledge.
There is also more access to facilities such as museums or
galleries than in villages.
In conclusion, there are advantages and disadvantages to both
kinds of school, and neither one can really be considered better
than the other for young people.

I had been excited about it for weeks. Finally, it was time for
our school trip to France. The night before, I hardly slept from
anticipation. This would be my first time abroad! A few weeks
before, I had got my very first passport.
On the day, we had to meet at school very early in the morning.
The coach was buzzing with excitement. Our energy was like a
candle that couldn’t be blown out. After a few hours, we arrived
at the ferry port and got off to go through passport control.
Our teachers made useless attempts to get us to stand in
a queue like at school.
When it was my turn to step up to the booth, I proudly handed
over my brand new passport. The immigration looked at me, at
my passport, at me again and then frowned. “Excuse me, Miss,”
he said. I smiled at him. “I don’t think this is you.”
He turned my passport around. The smile slid off my face like
an ice cream melting off its cone in the summer heat. I had
brought my dad’s passport by mistake!

were cute until that happened to me, too! It was painful!
2 fruits: During my research on Mikaila, I realised … They not
only produce honey but pollinate crops, including about
90 different farm-grown foods. … Fruits also need bees to
survive, and nuts, too.
3 cell phones: I couldn’t believe that cell phones can also be a
cause because they create radiation, a kind of energy which
stops bees being able to find their way.
4 cook(-)book: I love the story about how Mikaila first decided
what to do to help bees. … Mikaila’s great-grandmother sent
her a cookbook. … Mikaila thought about how she could use
the recipe to do something helpful for honeybees.
5 sour: … lemonade – which can be quite sour as you know –
so putting honey in to make it sweet was a great idea
of Mikaila’s.
6 (local) fairs: Mikaila decided to sell the lemonade, which she did
at local fairs … She also sold her product at events for young
entrepreneurs – other young people who were setting up their
own businesses. This was a brilliant idea of Mikaila’s …

about what we can do to save them. I wouldn’t mind

it helps our hair, too.

5 Model answer
Nature lover
Spending time in nature is something I do whenever I get
the chance. I’m always going walking or having a picnic in the
countryside. And what could be better than going to the beach
or climbing a mountain? Not very much!
I spend most of my free time outdoors, running about in the
woods with my friends or horse-riding through the fields at
sunset. Sometimes we swim in the lake on a hot summer day to
cool down.
B1+
Don’t you just love nature? It isn’t just fields and flowers that
are interesting to look at but humans and animals, too. I love
to watch my pet cat and dog and notice the differences
between them.
No one could disagree that it’s important for people to get
outdoors and exercise in the fresh air. Just think about how
your mood improves after you’ve been for a run or spent time
in the park. Even research shows it’s good for us.
So, in a few words, spending time in nature not only helps you
physically but mentally, too. And it’s a great way to learn about
the world while you’re having fun!

for four years is difficult to comprehend. A quick survey of
my friends showed that almost all of us had a few sleepless
nights … we knew that at the end of it we would have

2 A That’s why scholarships are so important; they provide
important support that enables students to focus on
studying instead of having to find ways of making money.
3 D I remember a very frustrating experience: I got all the way
to the end of an application when I realised that I didn’t
qualify because my family had lived abroad for a few years
when I was younger.
4 C … he had been involved in organising a charity event to
raise money to help a family on his street whose house had
burned down. He’d only done it to be kind …
5 C The people behind these scholarships don’t care about how
well you can write an essay or your average score in science;
they are more interested in your unusual talents.

4 In your English class, you have been talking about giving an

English teacher has asked you to write an essay for homework.
Write your essay using all the notes and giving reasons for your
point of view.
Some people prefer to give experiences as gifts rather than
actual presents. What things would you need to think about
when choosing an experience for a family member or friend?
B1+
Suggested answers
a train ride in the countryside, a home-cooked meal, a balloon
ride, a cooking class, a photography session, etc.
5 Model answer
Nowadays, many people prefer to give experiences instead
of actual presents because people can get more enjoyment
out of these. But what can we give that will be suitable for
the person?
One option is something really unusual, like flying lessons. On
the one hand, this is something unique that a friend or family
member probably wouldn’t organise for themselves. But, on
the other hand, it is quite dangerous and isn’t a good option for
someone who is afraid of heights!
A ticket to a concert would please someone who is a big fan of
a certain band or singer because the atmosphere at a live music
concert is very exciting. However, tickets for famous artists can
be quite expensive. So, you could buy a ticket for a local concert
or summer festival.
Finally, you could arrange something that you can do together,
like a train ride in the countryside. This would mean that you
could spend time together and share a new experience.
To sum up, there are many different options for experience
gifts. You can easily find something that your friend or family
member will love!

1 Yes, I agree. A good example of this would be creating a story
about going to the beach, and using all the words you know
about the beach, like sand, waves and so on.
2 I’m not sure about that. Recording vocabulary on a topic can
be a good way to memorise the words. For instance, you can
colour code the different forms of a word, such as nouns in
green pen or verbs in blue, which will help you remember
how they’re used.

comprehension that way, as well.
4 It’s definitely useful if the test is going to include a writing

Dear Mrs Philips,
I am writing to give you my ideas for the lunch club.
Firstly, I go to several dance classes and I would like to teach
other students how to dance. I could offer a choice of street
dance, ballet or jazz. I think street dance would be much more
enjoyable for students than ballet or jazz because it’s easy
and fun.
Secondly, I also like drawing and people say I can draw animals
very well. I learned from a book and it is not as complicated as
people think. I would be happy to show people how to draw
their favourite animals, such as cats or dogs. I think people
would find this very interesting because they would learn a new
skill and impress other people with their drawing skills.

Finally, I would like to be able to play the drums, and I would

might also be a good idea to buy some drums for us to use in

I hope you find my suggestions useful!
With best wishes,
Alex

1 very important, to have good health, no health problems,

2 fitness apps, to track how much exercise I do, can check if
I need to make any changes to my life
3 no, dangerous, only doctors really understand – people could
get worried about nothing
4 more equipment, scientists can investigate the impact of
different behaviours, make recommendations about things
to do/not do
7 Sample answers
1 In my opinion, living a healthy lifestyle is very important
because this affects our general health. We can avoid certain
health issues like obesity and diabetes, which could help us
to live longer.
2 I can see that there are both pros and cons to using
technology to stay healthy. On the one hand, we can use
fitness apps to track how much exercise we do, and this can
show us if we are doing enough. But on the other hand,
I think that it is easy to get addicted to measuring everything
we do and eat, and this isn’t good for our mental health.
3 I strongly believe that we shouldn’t check our symptoms
online. Some symptoms can mean many different things, and
we could see something online that isn’t true and worry for
no reason. For me, only doctors can confirm health problems.
4 Well, that’s a tricky question. I think that technology has
changed what we know about our health because scientists
have more advanced equipment. They can study the impact
of different behaviours and make recommendations about
things we should and shouldn’t do. But I think we also have
more information because there are more scientists and they
have more time to do research.

Game of Thrones is a fantasy TV series about two families who
want power of a kingdom. It is one of the most successful TV
series ever and has millions of fans around the world.
The series starts with the Stark family, who live in the North
of the Kingdom of Westeros. After the king asks them to go
down to the capital, everything starts going wrong for the
family. There are six children in the Stark family, but they all get
separated. The series follows them as they try to keep safe and
avoid their enemies.
Game of Thrones is based on a series of books. There is less
detail in the book than in the TV series, but this works because
it keeps the audience’s attention. However, there is a lot of
violence in the show, which isn’t always necessary. Some of the
characters have bigger parts in the TV series than in the book.
In my view, Game of Thrones is an intense and exciting
adaptation of the original books. If you want to see an
incredible world brought to life, you should watch it.

Reading
1 1 experiment 2 futuristic 3 complex 4 blossom 5 cosy

3 1 B is correct because ‘They’re’ refers back to the earth shelters
and the following sentence explains the ‘kit’ mentioned in B.
2 G is correct because ‘here’ refers back to ‘places with
colder climates such as Iceland and northern Scottish
islands’ mentioned before the gap, and the sentence
following G explains why the homes are becoming popular
in other places.
3 A is correct because ‘them’ refers back to our ancestors, and
the following sentence refers back to the empty homes.
4 E is correct because ‘Indeed’ shows that it supports the
previous point that ‘these inexpensive buildings create
an excellent alternative way of living’, and what follows is
an example of the high prices which cave houses can be
bought for, now.
5 C is correct because ‘This living cover’ refers to the plants
growing on the roof.

Summer’s the best time to come to the mountains because it’s
warm enough to be outside but not too hot to do things.
There’s a lot to do here. You love walking, don’t you? There are
plenty of places to go walking in the mountains and the views
are amazing. There’s also a toboggan run which is brilliant! You
sit on a little kart and go down the mountain on a track. You’ll
love it, I’m sure. There’s a lake where you can go swimming, too.
It’s my favourite place to go in summer.
I think the best way to get around is by bike. The valleys are
flat in the bottom and the roads are good, so it’s not too hard
to get around. You could stay in a guest house in one of the
villages. Most of them are comfortable and not expensive. You
can have meals there, too.
Let’s try and meet while you’re here.

Both of the pictures show young people taking part in
activities. The first picture shows two teenagers outside,
in the sea. They look like they have surfboards. The second
picture is of a group of teenagers indoors. They are all cooking
something. Perhaps they are in a lesson or even in a cooking
competition. The people in the first picture might be having a
lesson as well, but they are probably on holiday rather than at
school. I don’t think they are in a competition, though, as there
aren’t other people around them.
In my opinion, the people in both pictures are concentrating on
what they are doing and are enjoying themselves. The people
cooking are smiling and laughing together but the people
surfing are also probably feeling quite nervous. The people
indoors look comfy and relaxed while the ones in the sea look
as if they are a bit cold!

6 Example answers

Bag things: people can access our personal information (lack of
privacy), hackers, stealing money online
7 Model answer
All computers record our browser history when we use the
Internet. Not surprisingly, some people think this is a good
thing, while others disagree.
On the one hand, I believe that browser history can help us to
remember information. Many people spend a lot of time online
and want to flick quickly between websites. Browser history
allows us to easily find something that we saw and thought was
interesting or useful, and access our favourite websites without
wasting time.
On the other hand, it is easy for other people to access this
browser history through Internet tools. This means that they
can find out personal information, such as our address and date
of birth, and details about our friends and relatives.
Unfortunately, some people become victims of crime through
hackers accessing their browser history. This happens
when computers automatically remember login details and
passwords for bank and email accounts.
In conclusion, although storing browser history can be useful
for individual people, it also has some disadvantages. In my
opinion, it is only a good thing if you have strong anti-hacking
and virus protection on your computer.

Last weekend, I went to the open-air college art show in the
city centre. I wasn’t sure if it would be interesting, but I’m so
glad that I decided to go.
Firstly, there were over a hundred works of art on display. There
were many different types, not just paintings. There was even
a special tent with light shows – I hadn’t realised how amazing
different patterns of light could be! It took me two hours to
look at everything. After that, I went to the refreshments area
where there was every type of food you can imagine. What was
incredible was that you could get free samples of everything!
Overall, I thought the event was well organised and accessible
for everyone.
What I liked the most though was talking to the artists.
They were all students in the final year at local colleges and
universities, and it was brilliant to hear them explain how they
got their inspiration.
In conclusion, this was an amazing event for people who like art
or just for people who want to support talented young people
in our community. Everyone should definitely go next year.

contains the reference to the other street artists. It also
explains what will happen to their work, which supports C.
39 E is correct because examples are given of the kinds of places
where graffiti is found. There is then an explanation of what
happens to this graffiti in public places.

its history. The sentences following the gap support A’s
reference to graffiti not being seen as negative.

1 Model answer
I partly agree with the idea that travelling in your own country
is better than travelling to other countries. It is true that air
travel has a negative effect on the environment because of
air pollution. The best way to avoid contributing to this is not
to use vehicles at all, and to go on cycling or walking holidays
instead, which are more likely to be within your own country.
But there are many good reasons to travel abroad. There is the
possibility of improving your language skills, for example. People
say that language is culture, and, therefore, learning another
language helps you to learn about that culture. It helps cross
the language barrier, learn about other people, and promote
understanding across cultures.
You can have many exciting and interesting experiences
whether you stay at home or go abroad, such as seeing new
places or trying new food. You can also learn about yourself –
how you cope with problems, for example – and travel can
boost your confidence, too.
In conclusion, there are advantages and disadvantages of
travelling at home and abroad. Perhaps doing a little of both is
the solution!

I recently used a website for the visual arts, called Actingskills.
com, which has helped me with our drama classes at school.
I found the website useful because there are lots of videos and
tips which help you to improve your acting skills. For example,
you can learn how to express different emotions, such as
panic, shock and pride, which are a bit more difficult than just
happiness and sadness. There is also advice about how to use
your voice well, and there’s a great article about the differences
between acting for TV and acting on stage.
It would be good if you could upload videos of yourself to
the website for people to comment on and give you honest
feedback. It’s possible you may not like the comments, but I’m
sure it would help you improve!
I don’t think the talent-spotters will choose me for a role in a
big film any time soon, but I’ve definitely built up my confidence
and my classmates have noticed that, too. They’ve asked how
I’ve got so much better in such a short time – and I’ve already
recommended the site!

Subjects for life!
Maths may not be everyone’s favourite subject, but I think that
it is the most useful school subject because you need it in every
part of your life, from paying for things in shops to working
out how much food you will need to hold a barbecue for your
friends – even measuring out ingredients to make a cup of coffee!
Other subjects, like history or music, are interesting, but you can
easily go through life without knowing much about them. You
can’t get through everyday life without maths, and that’s what
makes it more useful than any other subject.
There are plenty of ‘subjects’ which aren’t taught at school but
should be. For example, most schools don’t focus on things like
how to make friends or how to deal with problems between
people. There should be much more focus on how to interact
with others, deal with conflict and survive real life! You can have
all the academic qualifications in the world, but if you can’t get
on with people or don’t have any common sense, it’s unlikely that
you will be as successful as someone who can and does.

Hi Alex,
Thanks for your email. It was great to hear from you. Your
survey sounds really interesting and I’d be happy to take part!
My role models aren’t anyone rich and famous as you might
expect. In fact, my parents are my role models. Why? Because
they have always supported me in my choices and they’re
the best listeners in the world. They support me when I have
problems and help me solve them. They inspire me to succeed
and be a kind and thoughtful person.
I think role models are people who are confident and calm, and
who respect other people and their decisions and differences,
and encourage them to be the best they can be. They may be
natural leaders and work hard to do their best in life.
Do I think actors and sportspeople make good role models for
young people? Sometimes, if they are people who get involved
in making the world a better place by supporting charities,
raising money for good causes, and using their fame to help
other people rather than themselves.
I hope that helps!

I live in the middle of the city so there’s always something to do.
There are lots of shops, cinemas and parks nearby.
If you could live anywhere, where would that be?
I like living the city, but one thing we don’t have is the sea and
I would love to live somewhere with a beach where I could relax
with my friends, swim and maybe even go surfing!
Have you travelled much in your own country?
No, not really. I went on a trip with my school to the mountains
and the scenery was really beautiful, though the walking was
tiring. I would definitely like to see more.
Are you going to make a journey soon?
Mmmm, no. Well, not very far. My family are going to visit my

Student A
Sample answer
Both photos show people helping someone to get food. The first
shows a young woman helping an old lady with her shopping –
they are in a supermarket - and the second one shows some
teenagers giving people food, I think. They are standing behind
a table and are giving people bags with tins and packets of food
in them. It looks like they are volunteers and are working for a
charity whereas the woman in the first picture might be a relation
of the old lady – perhaps her granddaughter.
I think the young woman wants to help someone she knows and
cares about – a relation or even a neighbour – while the volunteers
want to help people generally – maybe poor people in their
neighbourhood, but I don’t think they know them personally.
Student B
Sample answer
Yes, I often help my grandfather. His legs hurt and so he finds
it difficult to walk. My mum and I do his shopping for him
most weekends.

celebrating together. They both have a medal so it seems they
have been in a race together. They are clearly proud of their
medals. The other picture shows a group of teenage girls who
have got their exam results. They look very pleased with them.
The people in both pictures look very happy because they have
achieved something difficult.
I think the mother and daughter are enjoying their celebration
because they have achieved something together and so can
also celebrate together. The girls are enjoying their celebration
because they are with their friends and have now finished school
or college – so a stage in their life is completed.
Student A
Sample answer
Of course! We celebrate all kinds of things together – but
especially birthdays and the beginning of school holidays! We
always have a small party for birthdays and meet up somewhere
special like our favourite cafe to celebrate.
Part 3
Sample answer
Student A: Which would you prefer to discuss first?
Student B: I think meeting up with friends is something
everyone looks forward to in their break, so how about that?
Student A: OK. Well, catching up with friends is an important
part of the day for most people and if they have to go to
activities they might not be able to do this.
Student B: I agree, socialising is just as important as working.
So is needing to relax and having a rest from lessons. I don’t
think being busy all the time is important.
Student A: Yes, but I suppose that some people don’t use the
time well and waste the time or get bored in breaks, and if the
school provides activities which you can choose to go to that
might be a good thing for them.
Student B: That’s a good point. If people could choose how
to use the time that would be ok, though I don’t think many
people would choose to continue to learn!
Student A: But don’t forget, some activities can be fun and
might help you to learn things as well.
Student B: That’s very true – like crafts or using computers.
I think it would be nice to be able to choose if you want to do
activities with your friends but the school shouldn’t make you
do it.

WORKBOOK ANSWER KEY
2ND EDITION
B1+
Student A: So do you agree that we think it could be nice to
have activities during break, but it is not very important for the
school to provide them?
Student B: Yes, that’s right.
Student A: I think we both agree that having a choice of what to
do in your break is the most important reason?
Student B: Yes, a choice of interesting and useful activities
would be good to have because students can decide
themselves what to do with their break time.
Student A: Definitely – people might not be happy if they are
forced to do something. After all, breaks are supposed to be
time when people have a bit of a rest in the middle of the
school day.
Part 4
Some people say students don’t need any breaks at school. What
do you think?
Sample answer
Student A: I completely disagree. We all need a break and a rest
from school work in the middle of lessons. And a chance to
meet our friends outside the classroom. School isn’t just about
academic work, but about socialising with people our own age
as well.
Student B: I suppose some people think the time at school
would be shorter without breaks, but I agree with you that the
day would be hard work without them.
If students have breaks at school, how long do you think they
should be?
Student B: We have two short breaks of 30 minutes each. I think
I would prefer one longer break – say an hour. It would be more
useful and relaxing.
Student A: I’m not so sure, I like to be able to go outside the
classroom for a short while after every two to three lessons.
Though I can see that an hour or so would be more useful if
you want to do activities as well as eat your food.
In your opinion, is the school day too long, or not long enough?
Student A: Our school day is about right, I think. If it was longer
I would get very tired and if it was shorter we wouldn’t have
time for fun lessons like music, PE and art.
Student B: You are right about that. We are lucky to have those
kinds of lessons – I know some schools do have a shorter day
but they do fewer activity lessons and they are both useful and
fun to have.
Some schools provide lots of opportunities for students to take
part in team sports. Is this a good idea?
Student B: I believe that is a great idea. Team sports are fun,
healthy and teach you to cooperate with other people.
Student A: I completely agree. Even if you are not very good at
sport, team sports are fun to do with your friends and to watch
as well.
