When there is a lot of material to read, or the

time available for reading is limited, it is essential
for students to be able to skim-read a text.
That way, they can get a first impression of the
contents, and can then decide whether a section
is relevant for a question or not. Students need
to develop this reading skill to prepare for the
exam. Students skim the text and identify the
purpose of each paragraph.

Activating vocabulary students already know

makes reading a lot easier because it can
anticipate the content of a text. Students may
need a little encouragement to get started, so
you might ask them about recent reports in the
press or on TV, and then guide them in the
choice of words and expressions relating to
the theme of justice.

4 Charities and the government
5 violent video clips

Tune in to Culture (page 27)

This Tune in to Culture page, Famous criminals,
deals with two of the most well-known criminals in
history: Jesse James and Al Capone.
Write the two names on the board and ask the
students to give you any information they can about
each person.

Students work in pairs on a jigsaw reading

looking at the two criminals. Put the students in
pairs. Cut the photocopies in half and give one
half to each Student A and the other half to each
Student B. Tell students that they are not
allowed to look at each others papers. First ask
students to read their gapped texts, and
individually to write the six questions which will
supply their missing information. Circulate
among students and help them with the
questions as necessary.

Let students work in pairs to ask and answer

questions to complete their texts. At the end of
the exercise, let students compare their answers
with the completed texts.

Students highlight the main points of the text.

ANSWER KEY
A number of worrying videos have started
appearing on popular internet sites. These
video clips show teenage gangs displaying
weapons to the camera. This has caused a
great deal of concern in the UK where crime
from street gangs has been on the rise.
Charities and the government are arguing that
young people should not be exposed to this
sort of material via the internet. They say that
the companies who run the sites should
remove these films.
many of these sites still show images of
people with guns. Some of these come from
other countries where restrictions on gun
ownership are not as strict as in the UK

Students read the summary to see whether it

mentions the same points they have highlighted.

Students use the reference words in the box
