T

My name's Jessica Poole. I'm twelve

years old and I live in London.
I go to Watermead High School. I'm in
class 88. My favourite subjects are Chemistry and Geography. I
don't like French or Maths.
I take the bus to school with my friends. We meet at the bus
stop at quarter past eight. School starts at quarter to nine and
finishes at half-past three. After school, I go home and I do my
homework. In the evening, I watch TV or go on the Internet. I
practise the clarinet, too.
On Wednesdays, I don't go home at half past three. I play table
tennis in the school gym. I'm not very good, but it's fun. I like
sport.
On Saturday mornings, I have a clarinet lesson.
I've got a brother. His name's Cameron. He doesn't go to the
same school as me. He's only ten years old, so he goes to a
primary school near our house. He walks to school. Their lessons
start at nine o'clock, so Cameron leaves home at ten to nine.

birthday cards

a birthday cake

birthday presents

candles


On your birthday you get cards and presents from

your family and friends. Parents often buy a big

present like a bike or MP3 player. Other people give

toys, sweets, books, clothes, CDs, DVDs and things

like that.

People normally have a birthday party for their

friends. There's usually a birthday cake with one

candle for each year of your age. The person

with the birthday blows out the candles and

makes a wish. Then everybody sings 'Happy Birthday!'

People often have a party in their own home.

Some older children don't have a party. They take

their friends to the cinema, a bowling alley or

somewhere like that.

My friend, Anna, in Hungary says that they have

'name days' in her country, but we don't have 'name

days'. Anna also says that people in Hungary give

flowers on name days and birthdays. In Britain. we

usually only give flowers to women.

Cameron and I give flowers to our mum on

her birthday.

Christmas is the biggest festival of the year. Families usually come
together to celebrate it. People put up decorations and decorate a
Christmas tree. On Christmas Day (25 December), they open their
presents and there is a traditional meal of turkey with vegetables,
followed by Christmas pudding. The
next day, (26 December) is a holiday
too. We call it Boxing Day. On Boxing
Day, people often visit friends, or go
to sports matches.
At New Year, a lot of people have

a party to 'see in' the new year.

At midnight, they usually join hands

and sing Auld Lang Syne. New Year

is an important festival in Scotland.

In Edinburgh, there is a big street

party with famous bands and

fireworks.

They live in pairs.

They sleep in holes in the ground.

They eat fish.

They can eat scorpions.

Eagles eat meerkats.


7 Work with a partner. Tell him I her about your
favourite animal.

They live in groups. There are between five and thirty

meerkats in a group.

They sleep in holes in the ground. Early in the morning,
they leave their holes and look for food. They eat insects
plants, lizards, eggs and mice. They can even eat
'
poisonous animals like scorpions and spiders. When
meerkats eat, some of them stand on

two legs and guard

the others. That's

because some other

animals like to eat
meerkats. When the
guards see an eagle,
a snake or a fox,
they bark and all the
meerkats run back to
their holes.
