My uncle is a shopkeeper. He has a shop in a small village by the Thames near Oxford. The shop
sells almost everything from bread to newspapers. It is also the post office. The children always stop to
spend a few pence on sweets or ice-cream on their way to and from school. My uncle doesn't often leave
the village. He doesn't have a car, so once a month he goes by bus to Oxford and has lunch at the Grand
Hotel. He is one of the happiest men I know.

FAMILY TIES
VOCABULARY AND READING
1
You are going to read a passage about family ties. Before reading look at the box and guess
the meaning of the following words.
extended family
2
in-laws
divorce
nephew
niece
single parent family
generation
blended family
nuclear family
Read and listen to the text and find if your guesses were correct.
There have been great changes in the make-up of families over the last 100 years. In the past,
parents, their children, and their children's children often lived together in an extended family. In some
places, this extended family even included relatives by marriage, called in-laws, as well as the sons and
daughters of brothers and sisters, in other words, nephews and nieces.
Nowadays, in many countries, the extended family is no longer very common. Instead only two
generations, parents and children, live together. This is called a nuclear family. Even the nuclear family
is becoming less common in the United States, where because of factors such as divorce, the ending of
the marriage, there are an increasing number of single parent families, or families with only a mother or
only a father. In addition, another kind of family called a blended family is appearing. This is when two
people who have been married and have children remarry, and both groups of children live together.

My Aunt Emily
Of all my relatives, I like my Aunt Emily the best. She’s my mother’s youngest sister. She has
never married, and she lives alone in a small village near Bath. She’s in her late fifties, but she is still
quite young in spirit. She has a fair complexion, thick brown hair which she wears in a bun, and dark
brown eyes. She has a kind face, and when you meet her, the first thing you notice is her lovely, warm
smile. Her face is a little wrinkled now, but I think she is still rather attractive. She is the sort of person
you can always go to if you have a problem.
She likes reading and gardening, and she goes for long walks over the hills with her dog, Buster.
She’s a very active person. Either she’s making something, or mending something, or doing something to
help others. She does the shopping for some of old people in the village.
She’s extremely generous, but not very tolerant with people who don’t agree with her. I hope that
I am as happy and contented as she is when I’m her age.

READING AND SPEAKING

Read the text, and try to remember it.
Dave Carter’s my best friend. We met when we were five years old because our parents were
friends and we went to the same school. He works in a different city now, so I only see him at weekends
and during the holidays. He’s important to me because he knows me so well. We have a really good laugh
together and we enjoy the same things – football, clubbing, girls, the usual stuff*. When I’m feeling
down* or when I need to talk to somebody, I can always call him.
Recently, I had girlfriend problems and he was great – he’s really a good listener. He just lets
speak and he listens. But he isn’t perfect! He’s always late for everything and he never says sorry. Never!
The last time I saw him last weekend. He arranged to meet at four o’clock to play football, and he arrived
at half past six! It was nearly dark! Oh, well, nobody’s perfect, are they? He’s still a really good mate.
* to feel down = to be upset, sad
* the usual stuff = the usual thing

LESSON 8
LEARNING ENGLISH
JIGSAW READING
1
Read about four students describing how they learn vocabulary. Find out what they do to
remember new words better.
How different students organize their vocabulary learning
Student 1
I have a little notebook. It's an address book with the letters of the alphabet, and I write the new
words in two, or three times a week. I write the English word first, then the translation, and a short
sentence as an example. I try to learn ten new words a day.
Student 2
I have a little notebook. I always have it with me. I try to fill one page a day. Sometimes I put
words in groups, like fruit - all kinds of fruit, you know. Or colours, or clothes, or things and the shops
where you buy them. I have some grammar pages, where I write irregular verbs, or a page for
prepositions, I think prepositions are difficult, you know - on Sunday, in the morning, listen to a concert but you say phone someone. In my language we say 'phone to someone’.
Student 3
I stick little bits of paper all over my house! Sometimes I write what the thing is, er... On the
mirror, I have mirror, on the door handle, I have door handle. Yeah, I know, it's funny. My friends think
'What's the matter with her?' but I like it. And sometimes I write the words that are new, from the last
lesson, and I put the word on the ... on the kitchen door and I see it every two minutes!
Student 4
I write the new words on a little piece of paper, with the English on the one side and the Turkish
on the other side. I write the English word in a sentence so I know how to use it, and what words it's used
with. Then in my left pocket, I have the new words, and in the day, when I'm having a break or travelling
on the bus, I take out the new words, and if I remember them they go into my right pocket. If I don't
remember them, they go into my left pocket again.
READING AND SPEAKING
Read the text. Discuss the steps described and say what the best way is to learn English in your
opinion.
Now to learn English, you have to follow some steps, which are not very difficult if you know
how to handle them.
First, becoming friends with people speaking English, you have to get used to their customs.
Although accepting some of their customs, such as eating junk food, watching too much TV, and living
together before marriage, is very difficult, little by little you’ll get used to these foreign practices if you
convince yourself that you need English-speaking friends.
Second, reading different newspapers and magazines in English will help you a lot. If you read
every day, find new words and write them in your notebook, and try to use them when talking to your
friends, you’ll see how much your English progresses in just a few months.
Third, listening to the radio and watching TV are among the most important things you can do. I
think watching TV at least an hour a day is necessary, because it is much easier to understand than radio.
Fortunately, there are many different channels on TV, which gives you the chance to choose your
favourite program. In my opinion, the best program on TV is the news. Also, there are many different
shows and movies to choose from; they will help you too.
Fourth, and most important of all, is self-confidence: don’t be embarrassed about making a
mistake. The point is to talk and practice; therefore, you should not be shy and afraid of talking to
Americans. When you make a mistake, you have to try to correct yourself. You may have a lot of
problems, but you have to be patient and face your problems and solve them courageously.
And that is how to learn English.

Read the article about chronobiology*. Do you agree with experts?
A Time for Everything
For everything there is a season. The new science of chronobiology
tells us the best time of day to do everything, from writing a poem tp
taking pills. By following your body’s natural daily rhythms, you can
get more out of every day.
MORNING
7 a.m. – 9.00 Have a good breakfast. The metabolism is most active in the morning, and everything
that you eat at this time gives you energy but doesn’t make you put on weight. For the same reason,
it’s also the best time of day to take vitamins. If you take then before bedtime, some vitamine can keep
you awake and others can cause indigestion.
9 – 10.00 Go to the doctord’s or dentist’s. Injections are least painful at this time of day. It’s also the
best time of day to do weight-training or heavy pgysical activity. The back and neck muscules are
strongest now and less susceptible to injury.
10 - 12.00 Work, study, pain a picture, or write a poem. The brain is at its most creative at this time of
day.
12 - 2.00 p.m. Eat. This is the best time to have lunch, as the digestive system works very efficiently at
this time. You should have your big meal now and not in the evening.
21
ENGLISH REVISION COURSE. STUDENT’S BOOK. 2010
AFTERNOON
2 - 3.00 Have a siesta. After lunch, the body temperature goes down and the brain works more slowly.
Research also shows that there is an increase in road accidents at this time of day because drivers fall
asleep at the wheel. Research in Greece shows that men who have a siesta are least likely to suffer
heart attacks.
3 - 5.00 Go to the gym.physically our bodies are at their dayly peak. Body temperature, strength, and
flexibility are at their highest, and most Olympic records are broken at this time of day.
4 - 6.00 Do homework. Research shows that children are faster at doing arithmetic at this time of day.
EVENING
6 - 8.00 Eat, drink, and enjoy yourself. Although our digestive system works more slowly in the
evening, the senses of smell, taste, and hearing are at their best from about 6 p.m. to 7p.m., so now is
the time for a light but delicious dinner in good company. The liver is also its most efficient in dealing
with alcohol, so open a bottle of wine! If you are not going out, spend the evening looking after
yourself. Put on face and body creams, as the skin absorbs them best at this time of day.
8 - 10.00 Phone friends. This is the time when people most often feel lonely (and it’s also cheaper to
most parts of the world!).
10 - 11.00 Get geady for bed. One of the best ways to make you sure you get a good night’s sleep is to
have a warm bath. This relaxes both your mind and your body.
NIGHT
11p.m. – 7a.m. Sleep. After 11 o’clock, the metabolism slows down, and body temperature and
adrenaline levels drop, preparing us for sleep. If we stay awake after midnight, our attention drops
dramatically and even the most careful people often make mistakes. Accidents increase by six times
between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m.

Are you a couch potato?
Centuries ago, people didn't have much free time, because everybody was working too hard. In
Britain in the 19th century, people had more spare time, but because the Victorians hated relaxing and
doing nothing, they invented football, rugby, and cricket. People took up more gentle activities too,
like gardening, bird-watching and train spotting, and it was even possible simply to watch a sport and
give the impression that you were actually doing something. Gradually, leisure activities have become
less and less demanding, and most people have a variety of more or less energetic interests and
hobbies. But now there is a new type of person who thinks that lying on the sofa watching television
on Sunday afternoon or reading the newspaper from cover to cover is the most exciting activity they
can manage. This is the twentieth-century couch potato. For them, every activity is too much trouble,
and laziness is an art form! So how do you spend your free time?
Are you a couch potato?

Hobby. Collecting Things
How we like to have free time! We do look forward to weekends and holidays. Why? Then we
will have enough time for our pastime, our favourite leisure activities! For our hobbies!
You know, some people are interested in arts, the other are fond of travelling or are keen on
sports. Moreover, people are ready not only much time but much money on their hobbies as well.
People buy and keep different things, make collections. You may think they waste money on useless
things but for a collector his collection is a real treasure, often an embodiment of his dreams. People
collect anything: canvases, books, cars, stamps, badges, even royal memorabilia and miniature
coaches. The collections vary in price, size and number of items. They can be kept in albums and
galleries, on the shelves and outdoors.
Tastes differ.

Sumie
In my country, Japan, usually we invite guests home at weekend, in the early evening, about
seven o’clock. Before they come, we must tidy the front garden and clean the entrance hall. Then we
must spray it all with the water to show that we welcome guests with cleanliness. The guests usually
bring presents and when they give you the present they say, ’I’m sorry this is such a small present’, but
in fact they have chosen the present very carefully. When the meal is ready the hostess says, ‘We have
nothing special for you today but you are welcome to come this way’. You can see that in Japan you
should try to be modest and you should not show off too much. If you don’t understand our culture you
will think this is very strange.
When we have foreign guests we try to serve traditional Japanese meals like sushi, tempura, or
sukiyaki but when we have Japanese guests, we serve all kinds of food such as spaghetti, Chinese
food, or steaks. When guests leave, the host and hostess see them out of the house and wait until their
car turns the corner of the street; they wait until they can't see them any more.
Rosa
I come from Spain. At home what we love most is going out to eat in bars and restaurants.
There is a big choice and we can go from one bar to another trying different things and having a few
drinks, usually wine or beer. But sometimes we also like to invite people to our home.
I usually invite my friends for an informal meal. I cook Spanish omelette, which is made with
potatoes, onions and eggs, fried in olive oil. Then we have things like cheese, ham – Spanish ham is
very different from English ham, and if you buy the best one, called Jabugo, is something delicious,
worth trying. And then things like olives, anchovies, mussels. We drink wine or beer. Some people
may bring a bottle of wine or something for pudding. We usually meet late in the evening, about eight

Text A
Leaving home – David Snow talking about his daughter.
My daughter Jackie is living in London now. We're very worried about her, really. London is such a
dangerous place for a young girl. She's only eighteen, and London's so far away. Her mother went down to
see her there, but I don't like London.
I don't know why she went there. I think she has some friends there. She says she wants to be a dancer,
and she's doing a sort of course, a ballet course or something, but dancing isn't a real job, and you don't
earn much money being a dancer.
She's living in a flat in north London – with her boyfriend, I think, and we don't like that at all. We've never
met the boyfriend- Tony, his name is. He doesn't have a job. I think she's earning some extra money working
as a dancer in a theatre or club in the centre of London, but I'm not sure. I hope it's
a nice place. I do worry about her. London is such a big place. I'm sure she wants to come home, really. She
phones home sometimes, but not very often and when we phone her she's always out. We are her parents,
and I know we're important to her, but it still makes me sad.

Read about Margaret Tyler. She lives in Wembley, north London. Her children have now grown
up and left home, and so she lives alone with her incredible collection.
I work for a children’s charity. That’s a full-time job, but I also have guests coming to stay with
me at weekends. I have been collecting this royal memorabilia. I first got interested in the Royal
family when I saw the wedding of Princess Margaret on TV in 1960. I’ve been collecting for eighteen
years. The first things I bought were a dish with the Queen’s head in the center, and a few Coronation
mugs to go with it. I collect pictures, paintings, ashtrays, hundreds of mugs, tea-pots, tea-cloths, biscuit
tins, posters, books, flags, toast racks, egg cups, candle sticks, the lot! I’ve got over four thousand
Royal souvenirs. The house has been extended three times to fit it all in. They’re in all the rooms
downstairs, and in the four bedrooms upstairs, and in the attic, too. It takes all my spare time to keep
everything clean and dusted.
I was desperately upset when Princess Diana and Prince Charles split up, and I wrote to Princess
Diana, saying I hoped they might get together again. I got a lovely letter back from her Lady-inWaiting, Sarah Campden, and that’s the most important part of my whole collection. I’ve never
thought about money. I can’t remember how much it is. There are lots of people who collect this stuff.

I go up and down the country. We have conventions where we swap things. And there are specialist

Princess Diane is my favourite Royal. She’s warm, wonderful, giggly, real. I’d love to meet her.
I hope my dream comes true!

No,no. I’ll never believe this. There was another huge wave. It completely covered me. I was

I know my parents are worried about me living in London, but it isn't dangerous at all if you're
careful. It's so exciting here, there's so much to do and see. It was difficult in the beginning, especially
getting to know the Underground, and I didn't know many people, but it's fine now. I have a lot of good
friends. I love my Mum and Dad very much, but I don't want to live at home for the rest of my life. I

Read about Ted Hewitt. He lives with his wife and three small children in a village between
London and Oxford. He owns a coach business.
You’re sitting in your dining-room, surrounded by a wonderful collection of miniature
coaches. Some of them date back to when I was a child, and they were given to me as toys. But the
bulk of them I’ve added in the last ten, fifteen years. I’m the third generation in a family coach
business. I haven’t counted miniatures for a long time, but there must be at least five hundred, I should
think.
My favourite is probably what is also the oldest, and that’s a little tin-plate double-decker
bus, loosely based on a London Transport double-decker of the period. That would have been
manufactured in the late thirties, early forties. And we’ve got it here. It’s lovely. And it winds up. The
bulk of it is here, but I have others in other rooms of the house, and some stored up in the attic, as well.
There are a surprisingly huge number of people who collect buses and coaches; there are specialist
shops that sell them. And then there’s also a network of what are called swapmeets, where people go
and trade in either current models or old models. So there’s no difficulty in finding models at all.
People pay thousands and thousands for a specific model. I’ve never paid more than probably about
fifty, sixty pounds. I’ve got some that have become rare. I’m too attached to them to sell them. If a
model appears of an actual vehicle that I own, then I would have to have it, I think.
