modern bicycle. Instead, it had wooden wheels. This made it very uncomfortable on bumpy
roads. But Macmillan was lucky about one thing: he could not get a flat tire!

My best friend in school was Tom. He and I were in Mrs. White’s third grade, and we
became friends then. We often did crazy things in class, but I don’t think Mrs. White really
got mad at us. For example, Tom had a pet rat named Curly. Sometimes he hit it in her desk.
Later, when she opened the drawer, she screamed loudly and the class laughed. After two
years, Tom’s family moved to another town. We wrote letters to each other for a few years, but

then we lost contact. I often wonder what he’s doing now.

Thai Binh, 24 December, 2003
Dear White,
I came across your name in the pen pal column of my favourite magazine. I decided to
write to you and introduce myself.
My name is Tran Thi Thuy. I was born on 9 July, 1988 in Thai Binh Province. Now I
live at 297 Quang Trung Street in Thai Binh. There are four people in my family: my father,
my mother and my elder brother and I. My father is a teacher of Math and my mother is a
teacher of English. They both teach at Le Loi Lower Secondary School. My brother is a
student at Hanoi National University.
I study at Nguyen Hue School. It is a big school in the city. I am in grade 9A. We study
many subjects such as English, Math, Geography, History … but I like English because it is
widely spoken all over the world. I like to read books and watch TV in my free time.
Perhaps you could write and tell me something about yourself. It would be wonderful
to hear from you.

Best wishes,
Tran Thu Thuy

Tapescript
The second Sunday in May is Mother’s Day. It is a public holiday in both Britain and
America. On that day children send Mother’s Day cards to their mothers. They give their
mothers flowers or sweets as presents. Fathers and children do the cooking and housework so
that mothers can have a rest.
In the USA, Mother’s Day started in the 1860s. There was a small town called
Pruntytown in the middle of the USA. People in the town fought against each other during a
war. After the war they hated each other. Mrs. Ann Reeves Jarvis wanted the people to make
friends with each other again. So she started “Mother’s Friendship Day”. On that day she
visited all the other mothers in the town and said: “Let us be friends with each other again”.
Her idea succeeded. The same thing happened in other parts of the country. After she
died, her daughter carried on her idea. In 1908 Mother’s Friendship Day became Mother’s
Day.

Before, people used to think that heavy things always fell faster than light things. He did
experiments about this problem and discovered that both heavy things and light things fell at
the same speed. Many religious people did not agree with him because his scientific ideas
were different from theirs. He even went to prison for a while; but no one could stop him from
thinking. He continued to look for scientific answers.

people do. Also, computers are almost always correct.
Computers are very useful, but they also can cause problems. One kind of problem is with
the computer’s memory. It is not perfect, so sometimes computers lose important information.
Another problem is with the machinery. Computers are machines, and machines can break down.

On March 3

, 1847, Alexander Graham Bell was born in Edinburgh. He was a
Scotman although he later emigrated first to Canada and then to the USA in the 1870s. In
America, he worked at Boston University. Bell started experimenting with ways of
transmitting speech over a long distance. This led to the invention of the telephone.
Bell and his assistant, Thomas Watson, conducted many experiments and finally came
up with a device which they first introduced in 1876. Bell said on the phone: "Mr Watson,
come here. I want you". This was the first telephone massage.
Traveling all over America, Bell demonstrated his invention to the public at countless
exhibitions and by 1877 the first telephone was in commercial use.
