DEAR DIARY
1. Read Helens diary entry about her new
boyfriend and decide which is his picture.

Dear Diary,
Today is a wonderful day because Ive got a
new boyfriend. His names Tony and hes really
good-looking. I know him because his cousin,
Mick, is in my class and Mick is my friend.
Tonys sixteen and he lives near my house, but
he doesnt go to my school. He doesnt study at
all because he works in a supermarket, so hes
got money! But that isnt the reason why I like
him. Its his face and his personality. Hes a
really good person and hes got big green eyes
and shoulder-length wavy blond hair. He looks
a bit like Brad Pitt. My boyfriend is a film star!
Well, nearly.
The truth is I dont know him very well and

there are lots of things I want to discover about

him. What are his hobbies? Does he like going
to the cinema? Does he play any sports? Where
does he go on holidays? Things like that. But at
the moment all that doesnt matter. Im just
very happy that Tony is my boyfriend.

1. Read the text and decide which picture
describes it best.

Tom is a very active person and he often goes

out to the country to ride his bike at the
weekends. He sometimes goes with his friends
but he usually rides alone. Unfortunately, Tom
has an accident nearly every time he goes, so
when his friends see him at school on Monday
morning hes often got a pain in his back or in
his leg or something similar. Tom also plays
five-a-side football on Mondays and
Wednesdays. Hes not very good but he always
plays because he likes all kinds of sport.
This weekend Tom is not out in the country and
he cant go out and ride his bike because hes in
bed. Hes got a headache, a sore throat and hes
feeling very tired. His mum says hes got the flu

a Tanyas out with friends
b Tanyas tired
c Tanya helps her family
Tanya Lawson often arrives at school very tired and her teachers are worried because they say she isnt
sleeping enough. They think shes going to bed too late, probably because shes going out with friends.
Her teachers dont know the truth.
My family is having financial problems at the moment. My dad hasnt got a job and my mum is
looking after my little sister, whos only six months old. So Ive got a job to help with the money
situation. After school, Tanya works doing the household chores in various neighbours houses. From
Monday to Friday, I do the ironing, washing up and vacuuming in five different houses in my street,
and on Saturday morning I help at home. Im an expert at household chores now!
So when does she do her homework? I do it when I get home after work, at about ten oclock at night.

Jamie was in bed. It was dark and it was silent,

but Jamie wasnt asleep. Then there was a
sound, like a baby crying. Was there a baby in

looked out of the window. There was nothing in
the garden, so he went back to bed and
everything was silent again. Then there were
some more noises, like something breaking.
This time Jamie was a bit frightened, but again
he got up. He put on his jeans, T-shirt and his
leather jacket and he went out into the garden.
There was a Barbie doll on the ground. It was
his sisters and there was nothing unusual about
that, but the noises continued. Then he saw
what it was. There were some cats. How many
there were he didnt know, but they were

Darrel looked all day for his mobile but he

couldnt find it anywhere. He was almost ready
to give up when he opened an old box and
found, not his mobile, but a letter in an
unopened envelope. The date on the envelope
said 8th September, a week before, but what
surprised him was the note written on the back.
It said Open this to help find what you are
looking for.
Thats not possible! thought Darrel. I lost my
mobile this morning and the letter is from a
week ago! He opened the letter and read the
four words. Go to the kitchen. Nothing else?
he thought. But what could he do? He went to
the kitchen and saw a note on the table. It said
Phone this number.
Darrel had no idea what it was all about but he
phoned the number. The phone at the other end
rang, then a voice answered. Hi Darrel. Its

A DAY AT THE FUNFAIR

1. Read the story and put the pictures in
order.

Last Saturday while I was at the funfair with

some friends, I got lost. I asked some people,
Did you see three boys who were walking
along here? I knew it was a stupid question.
There were hundreds of boys there!
I continued looking for them but I didnt have
any luck, and after a while I felt hungry, so I
bought a hot dog and a soft drink. Then I
decided to wait in one place and eat my hot dog
and see if my friends appeared. After that I
noticed a girl looking at me and smiling. I was a
bit embarrassed, so I didnt look at her, but she
continued looking at me and smiling. And she
was really pretty! I completely forgot about my
friends and in the end I decided to be brave. I
started to walk towards her and smiled. She

pointed to her lip and stuck out her tongue. Oh

no! She only wanted to tell me that I had
ketchup on my face. How embarrassing!

Chloe was really looking forward to visiting

her friends in Edinburgh but she had a
problem. She lived in London and she had no
money for a train or a bus ticket. She decided
to hitchhike, but not alone, so she invited her
brother Sean. She phoned her friends to tell
them.
They started early one Saturday morning in
June. The weather was quite good. The sun was
shining and they were feeling happy. Chloe and
Sean stood by the side of the road and Chloe
put her thumb out. They were waiting for about
ten minutes when a car stopped. They couldnt
believe their luck until they saw who it was. It
was a neighbour who was only going as far as
the supermarket half a kilometre away.
Three hours later they were still waiting, and
now it was raining. They were getting very wet.
Im going home, said Sean. Wait for me!

that ran very fast. Sometimes they killed rabbits but they never stopped. They were the most dangerous
animal in the world and on this road there were quite a lot of them. It was the widest road in the rabbits
world but he was determined.
If I get to the other side, Ill have lots of great food to eat. Im going to have a great lunch! Every
rabbit knew that the best food in the world was on the farm on the other side of the road and this was
