The students on Beacon are 14-19 years old. They do the same subjects as other secondary
schools like Maths, Geography, etc. but they also learn about sailing.
Beacon is a great school. Classes start at 8:15am every day and they finish at 4 o’clock
on most days. On Wednesdays they don’t finish at 4:00. They finish at 3:00, but I stay
till 5 o’clock in the computer room and do my homework. I want to become a sailor so
Beacon is perfect for me.

My favourite subject is Modern Art, but I love sailing, too. It’s great fun! The facilities on
Beacon are excellent. My favourite place is the art room. At the end of the school day,
I go to the art room and paint with my friends.

A. Listen and read. Do you know anything about The Orient Express or about the Silk Road?
1 ead 
The Orient Express was a train
route that went all around
Europe. The line started from Paris
and went to Istanbul with many
stops in between. The first train left
from Paris on 10th October, 1882,
around 6:30 in the evening and got
to Vienna the next day at 11:20 at
night. The Orient Express was a
famous means of transport because
it was comfortable. The train system
operated for over a hundred years but
it doesn’t operate any more. It stopped
running in December 2009.
The Orient Express
The Silk Road
is a system of
roads that connect
Asia with the
Mediterranean. In
the past, people used this network
for trading goods from Asia to Africa
and Europe. Chinese silk was a very
popular trading item in the network
and for this reason the ‘road’ got its
name from it. The Silk Road is about
3,000 years old and the roads are over
11,000 km long.
Merchants travelled in caravans
and used camels, horses and even
donkeys to carry their goods. Because
of this network of roads it was easy
for people, ideas and traditions to
spread from one part of the world to
another. For example, Arabs used the
Silk Road to spread Islam and their
culture to China.

We arrived there at about 10:30. It took
us two hours to get there because of

fun on the bus, too. We spent all day at
the museum and we saw old and new
inventions and fossils of dinosaurs. We
even watched a brilliant 3D documentary.
My favourite place, though, was the
experiment room. We could do our own

the world
Double Decker - London
The red double decker buses of London are world
famous and one of the most common sights in London.
They have two levels and some have an open top so that
tourists can see the sights better. Over fifty years ago,
the first double decker took passengers around London,
and today they are still popular. They are a great way to
get around London and they are not very expensive.
Gondola - Venice
When people think of Venice, they think of the canals
and the long black boats, called gondolas. Gondolas take
people around the city. They were the most common
means of transport in the 18th century. However, today
mainly tourists ride in them. Riding in a gondola is an
excellent way to see this beautiful city.
Coco taxi - Cuba
A fun way to get around cities in Cuba, like Havana, is to
take a coco taxi. They are funny-looking vehicles; they
are black or yellow, and round like a coconut with three
wheels. They look funny but coco taxis are cheap and
can take you around the city very fast.

Last year I was on holiday in New Zealand with my
parents. One afternoon, I was climbing a cliff with
my brother, Omar, when we found a huge cave.
We were exploring the cave when suddenly Omar
disappeared. I shouted his name but there was
no answer. I was really scared, but I tried to stay
calm. Then, I saw a hole in the floor of the cave
and I heard Omar’s voice. I looked down the hole
and saw Omar swimming in the sea. ‘I fell in!’ he
shouted. ‘Come on, it’s brilliant!’ So, I jumped down
the hole, too. In fact, we spent the whole afternoon
jumping down the hole into the sea.

Dangerous desert
My school organised a camping trip in the desert last
year. On the first evening, my friend Ali and I decided
to go for a walk. When we left the campsite, it wasn’t
dark, but after a while it was very dark. While we were
walking, we heard a strange noise. It was coming from
a big bush. ‘It’s probably a wild animal!’ Ali said. I was
getting closer to the bush when I saw a long shadow!
Suddenly, a huge camel appeared from behind the bush
and started chasing me. I screamed and ran away, but
it continued to follow me. Luckily, a man from a nearby
village was looking for the camel. He heard me and came
to my rescue.

What a day!
It all happened two months ago. It was Monday
afternoon and I was walking back home from
school.
When I got home, I went straight to my room.
Suddenly, from my ******, I saw a beautiful
bird in our garden. It looked injured. I quickly ran
outside to help it but it was very windy and the
door closed behind me. I got locked out! I had no
keys, phone or money. My parents were away for
a few days, so nobody could help me. Luckily, my
bedroom ****** was open, so I took a ladder
and started climbing up. Unfortunately, while I was
climbing, a police officer saw me. ‘Come down
immediately!’ he shouted. I was shocked!
I tried to explain the situation but he didn’t
want to listen. Fortunately, after a while, our
next-door neighbour heard us, came out and said
to the police officer, ‘Charlie is a good kid! That’s
his house!’ What a day!

At the park, you can enjoy an exciting ride
on one of the largest roller coasters in the
world. It is 34 metres high and more than
700 visitors ride it every hour. There is
also a two-floor entertainment building
which is full of fun and excitement. There
is an ice-skating rink and a themed area
which is very popular with young people.
You can also go rollerblading, play video
games at the games arcade and take a trip
on the Amazon ride. With life-size models
of animals and light and sound effects, the
Amazon ride is just like being in the jungle.
The Amazon ride covers an area of 1800m
and includes a lake with a waterfall. There
is also a European village theme area and a
Far East village.
Children of all ages always have a great
time at Al-Shallal. And after all the fun, you

The sun is in the centre of our solar system
and all the planets move around it. It is
important for life on Earth because it gives us
light and heat.
Our solar system has got eight planets,
not nine like we used to think: Mercury,
Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus
and Neptune. Scientists don’t consider
Pluto a planet any more, but a dwarf planet,
because it’s very small. So, the smallest
planet in our solar system is Mercury and the
biggest is Jupiter. Also, the closest planet to
the sun is Mercury, but it isn’t the hottest.
The hottest planet of all is Venus: it has
temperatures of about 460ºC! Neptune is the
farthest planet from the sun, and it is one of
the coldest planets of the solar system along
with Saturn and Uranus. Temperatures on
Neptune can reach -220ºC!

found an ancient city unknown to the Western
World. People described it as ‘a rose-red city half
as old as time’. In Greek, Petra means ‘stone’.
Al Khazneh c arved into t he cliff
A must-visit sight...
Petra, Jordan:
The capital city of the ancient Nabataeans
The incredible thing about the city is that the
Nabataeans carved the rose-red stone hills to
create it. About 2400 years ago, Petra was the
capital city of the Nabataeans. The Nabataean
kingdom was very rich, and they built the most
fascinating buildings. One of these is Al Khazneh
or the Treasury. This building stands 39m tall,
but nobody knows why the Nabataeans built
it. Today, Al Khazneh is quite famous and has
appeared in many documentaries. Around
600,000 tourists visit the ancient site every year
and in 2007 people chose it in an Internet poll
as one of the New Wonders of the World.

Learning Tips
In class
How to learn better in class
• Look at your teacher and the board and
take notes.
• Listen carefully to your teacher and the CD.
• Ask your teacher when you don’t
understand.
• Speak in English as much as possible.
• Take part in pair and group work activities.
Speak
How to do better when doing speaking
tasks
• Before you speak, make sure you understand the task and how
you should use the prompts.
• Look at the example and use the prompts given.
• Use the vocabulary and the language you have learnt.
• Don’t be afraid to make mistakes when you speak.
• Speak only in English.
Outside the class
How to learn better outside the class
• Read the dialogues and ****s from your book
and listen to your CD.
• Read the dialogues and ****s aloud and
sometimes record yourself.
• Study the vocabulary and grammar and then
do your homework.
• Read selected ****s from magazines and
newspapers in English.
• Read websites in English.
Read
How to do better when doing reading
tasks
• Before you read, try to predict what the **** is about with the
help of the title and the pictures.
• Look for key words in the **** to understand the main ideas.
• Try to guess the meaning of unknown words.
• Read the **** quickly to understand the main idea.
• Read the **** carefully to understand speciic details.
• Decide in which part of the **** you can ind the information
you need.
• Make sure you understand who or what the pronouns (he, it,
this, them, etc.) refer to in the ****.
Vocabulary
How to learn vocabulary better
• Write down new words in a notebook.
Together with the English word:
- write an example sentence,
- draw or stick a picture.
• Put words in groups or use diagrams.
• Learn whole phrases (eg. verb+noun) not
just isolated words.
• Learn new words in con**** (in sentences
describing situations). This way, it is easier
to remember them.
• When you learn new words, you must
remember if they are verbs, nouns,
adjectives, etc.
• When you learn new words, it’s a good idea
to learn any synonyms and/or opposites.
• Refer to the Word List.
• Practise the spelling and pronunciation of
new words.
• Look up unknown words in a dictionary.
• Regularly revise words you have learnt.
• Try to use words you have recently learnt
when you speak or write.
Grammar
How to learn grammar better
• Refer to the Grammar Reference.
• Use grammar tables.
• Have a grammar notebook.
In it write: - tips and/or rules in your language,
- example sentences,
- important grammatical points
e.g. irregular verbs.
• Make a note of grammatical errors that you
often make.
Listen
How to do better when doing listening
tasks
• Before you listen, look at the pictures and read the questions
and answers carefully.
• Before you listen, try to predict what the speakers are going
to talk about.
• Before you listen, try to predict what kind of information is
missing.
• While listening, try to understand the general idea, not every
single word.
• Listen for key words to understand the main ideas.
• While listening, don’t assume that an answer is correct just
because the speakers mention a word that is in the activity.
Listen carefully before you answer.
Write
How to do better when doing writing
tasks
• Make sure you understand what you are asked to write.
• Plan your writing and make notes before you write.
• Plan your paragraphs. Before you start, think of the ideas you
are going to include in each paragraph.
• Group relevant information together and put it in the same
paragraph.
• Do not write very short sentences. Join your ideas with and,
but, so and because.
• Use pronouns (he, she it, them, etc.) to avoid repeating the
same words.
• When you write to a friend, start and inish your letter/email in
an appropriate way. Remember to use set phrases.
• When you narrate events, write the events in chronological
order. Use adverbs like suddenly, luckily, unfortunately to
make your writing more interesting.
• Use a variety of vocabulary and grammatical structures in
your writing to make it more interesting.
• Write your irst draft and correct it. Then write your inal draft.
• Write neatly.
• After you inish, check your writing. Check punctuation and
capital letters, word order, spelling, linking words, grammar
and vocabulary.

Write back soon.

In the past, people believed that when they
died they went to another world. In many
parts of the world, people thought that when
a person died, he or she needed their body
in that world. So, they made dead people
into mummies. They also put food, jewellery,
clothes and other things in the pyramids with
the mummies.
Most mummies come from Egypt. Some are
4000 years old! The most famous one is the
mummy of Pharaoh Tutankhamun (say it: tootan-
ka-men). He died when he was 17 years
old! An English archaeologist, Howard Carter
found the mummy of Pharaoh Tutankhamun
in 1922.
The Incas made people into mummies, too.
The Inca mummies are about 600 years old.
They don’t look like the Egyptian mummies,
but they also have everyday things with them.
In April 2002, archaeologists found over 2000
mummies near Lima, the capital city of Peru.

didn’t have a swimsuit, but he wanted to go into the
sea. So, he played in the water with his clothes on.
For lunch, he had fish and chips. They stayed on

The Man by the Lake
Last week, I went camping with my friends Larry,
Alex and Bill. We went to Mount Farway for the
weekend. We were having a great time, so we stayed
for a week. However, on the last day, a strange thing
happened. We were coming down the mountain when
we saw a fantastic lake. We all decided to spend the
night there, so we put up our tents. In the evening, we
felt very tired so we ate and went to bed early.
However, after a while I heard a man talking.
I got out of my tent and saw a young man sitting by
the lake. When he saw me, he ran into the water.
I woke my friends up and we all jumped into the water to look for him, but he wasn’t there! The next
morning, we were getting ready to leave when I heard the man talking again. He was sitting by the lake.
‘He’s back!’ I shouted. But my friends thought I was playing a joke on them.
