Quizmaster: That’s right. So, let’s take a final look
at the scoreboard. David has one point, Kevin and
Deirdre have two points, but Anna, with her three
points, is our winner tonight. Well done, Anna!

Do you want to go to the cinema this weekend?
If you do, there’s a new film out that you might
like to see. If you love to laugh, then “School of
Rock” is definitely for you. It’s a very funny film
about a man who takes a job as a teacher. He
loves rock music so much he sets a class project,
which turns his good students into a band. So, if
comedy films are your thing, come along to the
AMC cinema this weekend for a real treat. The film
has a PG rating. That means you have to ask your
parents before you go. There are 3 shows a day.
One at 12 pm, one at 3 pm and another at 8 pm.
Lastly the tickets cost only 3 pounds for children
under 16. So there is no excuse to miss out!

Unit 5a, ex. 8 (p. 47)
“Hi Julie, … It’s Lynn. Jeff and I are having a party
at our house on All Hallow’s Eve. Yes, it’s our
famous Halloween fancy dress party. Make sure
you wear a costume as we are giving away a prize
to the person who looks the best! The party is on
Friday the 31st of October. So, you have plenty of
time to decide who you are going to come as! The
fun will begin at 7:30 pm. Don’t worry about
bringing any food or drinks with you as we will
have everything here. I’m making a list of all the
things I need to buy already. Now, our address is
1703 Market Street. You can’t miss it. It’s next to
the post office. Hope you can make it. See you
later.”
Module 6. Leisure activities
Unit 6b, ex. 9 (p. 59)
Speaker 1
On a cold, wintry day there’s nothing I like more
than sitting at home and playing. Moving the men
and pawns around the board makes you feel as if
you are taking part in a battle. There’s nothing
better than chess on a rainy day.
Speaker 2
My friends all think I’m a little boring but I love
playing with words. I think it’s really interesting
trying to think of words using little square letters.
My friends probably don’t like playing scrabble
with me because I always win!
Speaker 3
My friend and I are members of the local club.
We practise together daily. Sometimes I enter tour
naments, but unfortunately I never win. We have
to be careful where we throw the darts though.
They could hurt someone!
Speaker 4
There’s no better way to relax than putting togeth
er the pieces of a puzzle. After school I must put
together a few pieces from a jigsaw or else I feel
bad. Some of my friends find it boring but to me
it’s good exercise for the brain.
Speaker 5
Some people find it a little boring but I love play
ing with my marbles. It doesn’t matter if I’m inside
or out, my marbles come with me. Alone, or
with my friends, it’s my favourite game. One
thing is for sure — I’m never going to lose my
marbles!
Module 7. Now & then
Unit 7b, ex. 6 (p. 69)
Tony: Hi, Bill. How are you?
Bill: Ah Tony. I’m fine, thanks. I was looking for
you yesterday afternoon. Where were you?
Tony: Well, it was lovely and sunny so I went for
a picnic in the park with my sister. What was the
problem?
Bill: No problem. I was just trying to find Ann and
thought you might know where she was.
Tony: Well, I’m sure she had to go to the doc
tor’s in the afternoon.
Bill: Oh, that’s probably why I couldn’t find her.
Tony: Yes, probably.
Bill: Do you know if Mary and John are around
or have they gone away for the summer?
Tony: Well, I saw Mary in the post office yester
day morning and I know John was on his way to
catch a train to see his friend in Leeds when I
spoke to him.
Bill: Oh, dear. I’m not having much luck.
Tony: Why do you want to know where everyone
is anyway?
Bill: It was my birthday yesterday and I was in a
restaurant on my own!
Tony: Oh, dear, Bill. I am sorry!
