PRESENTATION
1 Look at the photos. What can you say
about Jade, the girl with the phone,
just by looking at the photos?
• How old is she?
• Where does she come from?
• Anything else about her?
Jade’s very quiet and she rarely takes part in class
discussions. But she always writes excellent essays.
1
Jade’s eighteen, three years younger than me. We get
on OK, I suppose. Luckily, she usually spends her free
time with her boyfriend so I don’t see her very often.
3
5
I know Jade from Kendo classes. She’s getting pretty
good but she’s really modest about it! People think
Jade’s very serious but she’s got a fantastic sense of
humour. She’s really funny.
2
I come from Scotland but my wife’s English, we live in
Manchester. Alex and Jade are half-Scottish, half-English.
Still, I think my kids are quite proud to have some Scottish
blood in them!
4
Jade is doing really well at school at the moment
– she’s working very hard. I’m so proud of her. She
always comes top of the class in History and French.

She’s planning to study Politics at university. She still
spends all evening on the phone to Marc. I think she’s
talking to him now.
6
She’s such a caring person – I really love her. It’s just
a pity that we’re working hard for our mock exams
this term so we don’t see each other so often in the
evenings. But at least I see her at school every day.

I
love
fi lms.
1
Which verb describes …
a
an action?
b

State and action verbs

We use simple and continuous tenses with action
verbs. The meaning of the verb doesn’t change.
I
watch
a lot of fi lms.  I
’m watching
a fi lm now.
I
leave
school at 3 p.m.  I
’m leaving
school now.

We usually only use simple tenses with state verbs
(hate, like, love, need, remember, taste, think, etc.).
These verbs express feelings, opinions, perceptions,
possessions, stable characteristics.
I
love
fi lms.
NOT
I’m loving fi lms.
I

don’t like
sport.
NOT
I’m not liking sport.

NOT
I’m thinking it’s too expensive.

Becky
Did he want to be a fi reman?
Mum
Yes, he did, even when he was quite old!

Mum! This is really embarrassing!

Oh, and here’s Simon playing the piano.

hair like him!
Simon
This is getting very annoying!
Becky

A

First of all you shouldn’t sit and wait for friends to come to you. You should be
pro-active and introduce yourself to groups of students. You should try and join
conversations, maybe just butt in with a question, especially just before lunch time
so you can walk with other students to the canteen and hopefully fi nd some dining
companions.
B

Of course when you are new you should be friendly to all the other students but you
should look for the type of people you were friends with in your previous school. After
all these are the kinds of people you like and get on with.
C


Sometimes trying to make friends in the classroom isn’t easy. All eyes are on you and
you can feel embarrassed because every time you speak all the other students stop
and listen. Even the most confi dent people clam up in this situation. Joining a club or
doing a sport can be a great way to make new friends in a more relaxed setting.
You should fi nd out what clubs there are outside of school hours and do an activity that
you enjoy, this way you can have fun and hang out with people with the same interests
as you.
D

Making friends can be especially hard when you are a naturally shy person, so you
should stay calm and try and look confi dent even if you don’t feel it. Making eye contact
and speaking up can make you seem more confi dent, but remember you shouldn’t try
too hard, be cool and people will think you are friendly but not desperate! The most
important thing to remember is you shouldn’t change your personality, be natural, and
you are sure to meet people like you and make some lasting friendships.
FITTING IN WITH THE “IN” CROWD
Starting a new
school can be
intimidating,
all the other
students know
each other and
you haven’t got
any friends.
It’s very tough
being the new
kid so here is
our guide to
fi tting in and

making friends.

UNWRITTEN SCHOOL RULES!
All schools have rules; students must wear a
uniform, they mustn’t run in the corridor, they
must switch their mobiles off in school. But
these rules are easy, we all know them, but what
about the unwritten rules that we must follow?
Let us know about your school’s unwritten rules.

At my school in the classroom you
mustn’t look too clever and answer all the
questions, the other students will secretly
think you are a “boffi n”!
Rachel, 16
Boys should pretend to be interested in
football at my school. You can have other
interests but you must keep up to date
with the latest football scores and support
a team if you want to be popular. I hate
football but it’s what most of the boys talk
about – it’s so boring.
Neil, 15
It isn’t cool to be the “teacher’s pet” so you
mustn’t chat with the teacher after lessons
or try to be the teacher’s best friend at
my school – it’s so silly really because our
teachers are really nice.
Nicky, 15
Boys also mustn’t show any weakness, so
you can’t complain too much at my school

– that’s the best way to get bullied. Equally
you shouldn’t be too mean to other kids, no
one really likes a bully.
Oliver, 14

S
cientists at Newcastle University recently
did an experiment. They asked young
British people in their twenties to choose
which colour they preferred out of two options.
Their results showed that women generally
prefer pink colours and men prefer blue. They
then repeated their experiment with young
Chinese people and the results were very
similar. The scientists’ conclusion was that
our preferences for different colours was the
result of evolution and something we are all
born with. They argued that women perhaps
prefer pink colours because in the past they
had to be good at identifying red berries and
other fruits of the forest.


1

It’s a nice theory, but there’s a problem with it:
it isn’t very convincing. The fact is that men in
their twenties prefer blue to pink because of
their upbringing – we teach boys from early
childhood that they should prefer blue, a more
masculine colour.
2
Look around any
toy shop – toys and books for girls are pink,
purple or red, whereas most toys and books for
boys are different shades of blue, brown or
green. Some parents think that there should be
more choice and we shouldn’t encourage these
colour rules but it is diffi cult to fi nd toys or
clothes for little girls that aren’t pink.
However, it hasn’t always been like this. Indeed,
for hundreds of years, people used to think pink
was the most suitable colour for boys and blue
for girls. To the Vikings, pink was a symbol of
masculinity and war.
3
For example,
in 1914 an American newspaper, advised that
mothers should ‘use pink for the boy and blue for
the girl, if you are a follower of convention.’ We
don’t really know why this changed, but it started
to happen after World War Two.
4

Sue Palmer, a child psychologist,
feels that it is. She believes that we must stop
‘our total obsession’ with pink because it has a
negative effect on girls’ personalities - it limits
their choices and decisions in life. She agrees
that girls typically don’t become interested in
science and business when they are teenagers.
However, she argues that this is because society
tells them they should be ‘pink princesses’. Boys
have an advantage, simply because they can
choose from a wider range of colours as they
grow up. Other experts argue that colours have
no infl uence on our personalities and the love of
pink is a harmless phase that girls soon grow
out of as they reach adolescence. Certainly when
I look at my teenage daughter with her black
clothes and black make up, our cute pink-loving
little toddler seems a very distant memory …
