My family and I like going on holiday. People go on holiday for dierent reasons. They
may want to relax. Sometimes theres nothing better than sitting by a pool or on a beach
and getting into a good book. They may want to take a break. If lifes too hectic at home,
people often take a holiday to escape from the stresses of everyday routine.
Some people may want to experience a new culture. From museums and galleries to
rich history and amazing people, new countries oer new cultural experiences and
tourists enjoy visiting them. They may want to go on holiday for adventure, or to watch a
sporting event.
According to tastes, personality and budget you may decide on a dierent kind of
holiday. You may decide to go on an exotic beach holiday, a safari, or a spa holiday; or you
may decide on a weekend trip, or go for a last minute holiday.
Some people like going to dierent places and others, like my family and I, usually prefer
going to the same place: Corsica.

I am very lucky because I have great class mates.
Take Fiona, for example, she loves sports and
is always winning competitions. George is
also keen on sports, but he clearly prefers the
adventure of extreme sports. I adore Martha and
Rupert! Martha never gets angry at anybody, and
Rupert will run to help anyone who needs him
at any time. Ralph is a bit dierent, Im afraid. He
likes making other people mad, and thats not
nice!
Track 2
Martha Hi Rupert! So, the party is on Saturday!
I hope we can raise enough money to buy
Christmas presents for the children at the centre.
Rupert Im sure we will. The fun thing is that
well make money and throw them a party at the
same time.
Martha Is everything ready? What do we still
have to do?
Rupert We must choose the music and order
the food.
Martha Lets ask Ralph to be the DJ. Hell be
busy and wont tease anyone!
Rupert Good idea! What about food?
Martha I told all our classmates to ask their
mums to prepare something: cookies, cakes,
pizzas, pies and each of us is going to bring
something to drink. That way we wont
spend money and well make a good prot! How
much money do we need?
Martha We need at least 200.
Rupert Oh, I almost forgot to tell you: my cousin
Paula and her friends have volunteered to come
and perform circus acts to entertain the kids.
Martha Woa! Thats awesome! I think itll be
great!
