What were you doing when...?
On the anniversary of the terrible tsunami in Japan in March 2011,
Japan Today asked readers: What were you doing when the earthquake hit?

Mike, Australian News Editor

I was waiting to board my plane to Japan from Sydney when they announced the earthquake and that Narita
airport was closed. So we were stuck at the airport. The next morning, we left for Japan. It was terrible.
Kumiko, Japanese Advertising Consultant
When the earthquake hit, I was chatting with my colleague. First, I thought I was feeling dizzy and asked my
colleague: "Is it shaking, or is it just me?" "Yes, it's shaking," he answered.
Jiro, Japanese Operations Director
I was in a cafe in Tokyo, for a casual meeting with my boss. Cars and taxis were driving along the street, and when
the earthquake hit they started to move up and down like waves on the sea.
Hiroki, Japanese Student

A I was playing Starcraft 2 on my laptop at home. My team was winning. Then the quake started. I wrote: "We are
having an earthquake here and it's huge. I think this is the big one. Today I'm going to die." My teammate said:
"Please sell your items before you leave." (I didn't sell my itemsI left!)
Nestor, Filipino Marketing Consultant
111..
I was swimming in the pool at my gym. I felt like a goldfish in a bowl. The lifeguard blew her whistle and asked
BJ5 me to get out of the pool and go home because they planned to close the gym.
Christopher, American Chef
I was making cream puffs at a cooking school in Kobe, on the fourth floor of the building. I started to feel dizzy.
A few seconds later, my teacher said "It's an earthquake! Look, the lights are swinging."
Anita, American Singer
I was going to a concert and I was riding my bike to the station. As I approached the stoplight, I saw people holding
each other in a strange way, like they were drunk... I looked up, and saw and heard the power lines moving.
Astrid, German Teacher
I was having a nap with my three-month-old daughter when the building started shaking. Usually I don't mind
earthquakes, but this one was different!!! IT FELT BIG! I grabbed my baby, opened the door, and dived under the table!!1

What were you doing when...?

On the anniversary of the terrible tsunami in Japan in March 2 0 1 1 ,
Japan Today asked readers: What were you doing when the earthquake hit?
Mike, Australian News Editor
I was waiting to board my plane to Japan from Sydney when they announced the earthquake and that Narita
airport was closed. So we were stuck at the airport. The next morning, we left for Japan. It was terrible.
Kumiko, Japanese Advertising Consultant
When the earthquake hit, I was chatting with my colleague. First, I thought I was feeling dizzy and asked my
colleague: "Is it shaking, or is it just me?" "Yes, it's shaking," he answered.
Jiro, Japanese Operations Director
I was in a cafe in Tokyo, for a casual meeting with my boss. Cars and taxis were driving along the street, and when
the earthquake hit they started to move up and down like waves on the sea.
Hiroki, Japanese Student
I was playing Starcraft 2 on my laptop at home. My team was winning. Then the quake started. I wrote: "We are
118 a having an earthquake here and it's huge. I think this is the big one. Today I'm going to die." My teammate said:
"Please sell your items before you leave." (I didn't sell my itemsI left!)
Nestor, Filipino Marketing Consultant

I was swimming in the pool at my gym. I felt like a goldfish in a bowl. The lifeguard blew her whistle and asked

.* me to get out of the pool and go home because they planned to close the gym.
Christopher, American Chef
I was making cream puffs at a cooking school in Kobe, on the fourth floor of the building. I started to feel dizzy.
A few seconds later, my teacher said "It's an earthquake! Look, the lights are swinging."
Anita, American Singer
I was going to a concert and I was riding my bike to the station. As I approached the stoplight, I saw people holding
A each other in a strange way, like they were drunk... I looked up, and saw and heard the power lines moving.
Astrid, German Teacher
I was having a nap with my three-month-old daughter when the building started shaking. Usually I don't mind

A R e a d t h e b e g i n n i n g o f a n a r t i c l e . In g r o u p s , d e c i d e w h i c h o f t h e t i p s , 1 - 4 , is t h e m o s t i m p o r t a n t w h e r .
traveling w i t h a friend. If you d i s a g r e e , try to c o n v i n c e y o u r p a r t n e r s .

H o w to travel together w i t h o u t killing each other!

Traveling with people you don't know timately can be fun... or a nightmare. Your personality
differences can get multiplied by ten. So here are three things to con; der before you go:

I think it's really important

1 Be prepared to c o m p r o m i s e . 3 Do t h i n g s separately s o m e t i m e s . to compromise.

2 D i s c u s s money. 4 Plan carefully. Yes, but for me.

that's not...

B Q 3 . 7 Listen a n d read t h e r e s t of t h e article a n d m a t c h a tip to e a c h p a r a g r a p h .

T h e r e ' s o n e e x t r a tip. W h a t ' s y o u r r e a c t i o n t o t h e t e x t ?

Be honest about your budget. If you can only spend $60 a night for accommodation, say it
before you go. Also, plan how you intend to share all the other expenses: transportation, food
and entertainment. So, think about this: Is it OK for you to travel with someone who has more
money than you? Would you mind paying a bit extra to help a friend who has less?

Use each other after a
plural subject for reciprocal
feelings or actions.
> They are getting tired of
each other.
> We have to help each other.
Sometimes you'll need to make quick decisions on the road and maybe disagree on what you
want to do. If your personalities and interests are different, you'll have to plan a bit and be flexible
with each other. If one of you is a heavy smoker and the other hates smoke, it's important to find
a solution that satisfies both sides. So, consider this: Can you make concessions when you travel
with others? Would you ever travel with someone who has a few irritating habits?
Spending too much time with each other can be very irritating. Plan to take some breaks from

Outside North America, taking a gap year to

travel or work abroad is so popular that even
the British royal family has done it. Prince
William, for example, spent his gap year in
Belize, working with the British Army and then
in Chile, as a waiter in a restaurant. Gap years
are still relatively rare in the U.S., but things are
starting to change. We've spoken to six people
and asked them "Is a gap year a good idea?"

Derek I'm very shy. Really, you have no idea how shy I am. So guess how I'm spending my gap year? Teaching
English as a foreign language in South Korea. Yepto groups of 3 0 students. And you know what? I love those kids
and I think they love me back. I've only known them since June m, but it feels like we've always been friends (2).

Ross Well, I lived in Cairo for a yearpi and the experience taught me more valuable lessons than my last ten
years at school. I learned to be much more open to other cultures, values and religionsthings you don't learn in

HAVE W E REALI ~

A secretly recorded video interview has shocked reporters! In it
a man, apparently Apollo 11 mission commander Neil Armstrong,
makes this dramatic announcement: "I am finally convinced
that my historic first step on the m o o n is not a true story, but a
conspiracy created by the American government." The man said he
reconsidered every detail of the journey after he started to watch
YouTube videos about the moon landing conspiracy and read
hundreds of blogs written by experts. "I'm here to finally tell the
truth." Armstrong likes surfing the Internet.
"Now I realize that for the past four decades I have been wrong,"
he said emotionally to reporters in his hotel room. Armstrong s hotel
has twenty-four floors. "I know this is a big disappointment to all of
you, but now I know that on July 2 0 , 1 9 6 9 , 1 did not travel 250,000
miles to land on the moon. The factual evidence has finally convinced
me that the entire landing was filmed in a studiojust look at the
video carefully," he declared. "There are no stars in the sky and the
American flag is movingbut there's no wind in space! And look at
the shadows! They're not parallel to the people's bodies!"
T h e man said he vaguely remembers being on a spaceship and
feeling the effects of zero gravity when he left E a r t h , but that's
probably because he was in a state of profound "mental confusion"
at the time. Armstrong decided he wanted to be an astronaut when
he was seven and he died on August 25, 2012. "I was probably
watching a sci-fi movie or something." "Come on, people!" he
said. "It's the moon. No one can land on the moon. Period. Forget
everything I've ever said." In a symbolic gesture, at the end of
the interview, he took a collection of moon r o c k s he kept in his
bedroom and dramatically t h r e w them into a trash can.

Weird Sophie
The only pec I've ever had was a neurotic cat named Sophie. W h e n Sophie was
still a k i t t e n , she accidentally drank half a bottle of detergent. M o m and I were
desperate, of course, so we took her t o the vet immediately. Sophie didn't
die, but she became very strange after that, like the feline equivalent of Lady Gaga.
For a long time, I was reluctant to let Sophie leave the house, (1) I knew I couldn't
keep her inside forever. One day, when she was an adult, I finally decided
that it was t ime for her to be brave and explore the outside world, ,2) I opened
the front door.
Sophie took a few steps and then completely lost her mind. She had never
felt grass, (3) she didn't know what t o do. She started to j u m p up and
d o w n like crazy and w o u l d n ' t stop. Sophie only ran back t o the house when
she heard Toby's bark. Toby was only a small, f o u r - m o n t h old p u p p y {4) Sophie
was terrified of him. Yes, my cat was afraid of a baby Poodle.
Sophie used to sleep in the sink f r o m t ime to t ime (5) , for some mysterious
reason, she never noticed when the water was running. One night, I was
getting ready t o go to bed and w e n t t o the other r o o m t o answer the
phone. W h e n I came back a few minutes later, Sophie was submerged in the
sink, hypnotized. Cats are supposed to be afraid of water, right? N o t Sophie.
She also loved t o sleep in the washing machine, especially if there were
dirty towels inside. One day, M o m didn't know she was there, (6) she almost
closed the door and turned on the machine. That was Sophie's second near-
death experience.
As t ime progressed, Sophie started to believe that she was a guard dog. She
used t o follow strangers around the house and m a k e w e i r d noises. Trouble is, she
couldn't always differentiate between strangers and her owner (7) she used
t o b i t e and scratch everyoneincluding myself. Sophie died at the age
of 21. Can you believe it? I wonder h o w she's doing in Cat Heaven. She was a
weird, weird cat, she was the only true friend I had during
my entire adolescence.

A good vacation is a break from real life, but sometimes they can be
extremely stressful. Here are some hints to help keep y o u cool when
traveling:
1. Reducing stress starts before you leave home. Try to book direct flights
so that you can escape those awful connections. By doing that, you
can avoid long layovers, missed connections or the worst problem:
canceled flights.
2. Traveling can be stressful on any day, but Mondays and Fridays are a
nightmare, especially between 7-9 a.m. and 4-7 p.m. Friday is actually
my favorite day of the week. So do yourself a favor and don't trave
then. Period.
3. Bad things are going to happen when you travel, so don't try to contra
everything. If you're angry, try to g e t r i d of your anger in a calm way
Drink a cup of tea, practice deep breathing or, if you can, try to find
some humor in the situation.
4. Give yourself p l e n t y of time for things right from the start: taking a
c a b to the airport, checking in at the airport, boarding your flight,
renting a car, and finally checking in at your hotel. Remember you
can book online. Remember: the less you rush, the less stressful your
vacation will be.
G Match the bold words in F to their meanings.
1 stay calm k eliminate
2 lots of 5 stops between two flights
3 do things quickly 6 taxi
H Mini role-play. A: It's Christmas Eve. You're at the
bus station. You're afraid you won't make it to your
parents'. B: You're A's mom / dad. S/he's having
lots of problems at the bus station. Ask for details
and try to help.

"You have to read the syllabus carefully. It's a really big deal, the most
important document you'll get from your professor." George Smith

"Find some time to study every day. 'A little and often' is best. It
doesn't have to be a lot, or even at the same time every day, but you
can't leave it until half an hour before class!" Muhammed Burton

"Get a study buddy so if you miss a class, you can call them to
find out what happened. You can help each other with homework
too." Konstantina Spanos

"If you know you have to write a paper, start working on it early.
When you have a test, prepare for it in advance. You can't learn

o e

Akil's blog: Good communicationor not!

I don't know about you, but in my country (I come
from Bahrain) our family get together every weekend
to have lunch either at my grandparents' house or
in a restaurant. But lately I've noticed a bit of tension
between us(1). For example, grandma can't understand
why her grandkids have to have their phones next to
them , all the time when we eat. Why don't people talk
to each other? And why don't people call her 3i on the
phone anymore?
At the same time, my mom and dad don't understand
why grandma doesn't want to use the laptop they 4
gave her to answer e-mails and look at photos. And...
I don't get why my younger sister and cousins don't
reply to text messages and e-mails. Why are they(6)
so rude to their family, and yet they're talking to their
friends all the time? Then I read this new survey about
communication and technology across generations
and it all seems to make a bit more sense now.
It says that one of the biggest differences is in the way
"millenials" (that's anybody under 25 like my little sister
and cousins) see technology compared with other
generations. For them , technology is totally normal,
Generation Age Prefer to Communicate
Millenials under 25
by text message
35-55
Boomers
face-to-face
part of their identity. They(9) prefer to communicate
using social media like Facebook and Twitter. Taking
away their phones is like cutting off their armslThat's
why my sister won't put down her cell phone.
Then there's "Gen X"that's the generation from 35
to 55, like my mom and dad. For thern 10|, technology
is good for practical things like shopping and
banking online, that sort of thing. But they nl] don't
use technology for socializing. For them, e-mail is the
best way to communicate.
And in between the millenials and Gen X comes "Gen
Y,"who are between 25 and 35 (OK, I confessthat's
me!), and we're big fans of texting. I don't want to
call or instant message, I want to textand I expect
you to respond!
Finally, of course, there are older people (like
grandma!), who prefer to talk on the phone (the so-
called "boomers"people over 55), and then, older
still, the "traditionalists" (everyone over 65), who
prefer to meet in person.
So... it doesn't surprise me that we misunderstand
each other! Millenials are great multitaskers and get
things done quickly online, but older generations
wantthem l3) to focus moreon personal relationships.
What do you ,4, think? Have you seen this in your
family too? I'd love to hear your experiences.
No, I don't. I know lots of people over
60 who tweet and use Facebook.

Verbs like 1-7 in A can be used with or without go:
to climb, or to go climbing; to camp, or to go
camping.

routine, what you did in the past and your future
plans. I always go shopping on Friday, I went
camping last year-, I'm going swimming tomorrow.

Compound words are combinations: two words
combine to make a new one, e.g. hair+ brush =
hairbrush, boyfriend, mailbox. Usually the
second word says w h a t it is and the first word
describes it.
There's no strict pronunciation rule, but the
main stress is usually on the part that describes
the word, e.g. hairbrush, ex-boyfriend, mailbox.

CHARITY CHALLENGE Five crazy extreme sports!

A person goes t o the t o p of a rock or cliff and dives into the water and rocks b e l o w h o w crazy is
that? This is called cliff diving!

It's similar t o surfing or skateboarding, but y o u d o it on snow, so it's snowboarding. For those w h o
can't stand waiting for the g o o d weather t o go surfing again, this is a cool option. But be careful, it's
extremely easy to fall!

H o w about hang-gliding? You run off the edge of a cliff and hang f r o m a bar inside a kind of big bag
and fly like that. If y o u feel like f l y i n g w i t h o u t a planethis may be for you!

Or perhaps you prefer j u m p i n g off a bridge, building or m o u n t a i n attached t o a thick elastic band t h a t
lets you go up and down. Can you imagine d o i n g this? A lot of people love bungee j u m p i n g !

Underwater hockey is a new sport. Divers w h o miss being in the water during the winter m o n t h s love
it. W h e n the outside water is t o o cold for diving you just need a snorkel, a stick and a puck and you
and your friends can go t o the local s w i m m i n g pool for a game!

Dear all,
It's my 30th birthday in April and I've decided to do something... different! So, I'm writing to
see if any of you want to join me on my adventure. You all know how I adore driving, especially
at high speeds. Well, for the first time ever I'm going to Las Vegas! No, not to drive around the
casinosI hate gambling! I've chosen Vegas because they have an awesome racetrack there.
Check it out at www.letsgoracinq.com. So, who'd like to come with me?There's so much other
stuff to do in Vegas too. If you'd prefer to catch a show, or stay at the hotel and just swim and
relax, or go to the casinos, whatever, that's fine.
If you prefer watching me drive to driving yourself, that's fine too. But I really hope you all
agree to come!! Oh, and remember, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas! So, no matter how
wild you get, nobody back home will know!
So, send me a message to let me know if you can make it.
And don't forget to check out the website before you make your decision!

Blood was rushing t h r o u g h my head, and I couldn't stop smiling. M y legs were
trembling. It was the day that 1 was going to j u m p f r o m the world's highest bungee!
The feeling was surreal and, at the back of my mind, I kept w o n d e r i n g if it was really
happening.
I was interviewed before I j u m p e d and I tried to keep as cool as possible b u t I
couldn't hide the nervousness because this is the world's highest bungee. They t o l d
me t o step on the plank. Slowly m o v i n g t o the edge, I raised my hands and looked
right. There was a signal for me t o have my picture taken. I looked like a total idiot
in the picture. Then the crew said "Here we go!" and then it all happened so fast.
One of t h e m started t o c o u n t down, "5-4-3..."
I had t o stop t h e m because I wasn't ready. "Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,
w u w u w u w u w a i t ! " I shouted. "First a t t e m p t FAILED," I heard someone say over the
walkie-talkie. I had to make sure I didn't screw up the second one. There was no
t u r n i n g back and another failed a t t e m p t w o u l d mean that I was a wuss. "5-4-3-2-1!"
A n d so I jumped... or fell, or whatever you call it. I d i d my best t o stay calm, b u t I
had t o scream. After about five seconds the fall still wasn't over, I had t o take a deep
breath and I screamed again.
I started laughing, I screamed again, and I laughedyes, like a hyena. The j u m p was
over and the crew below met me and removed my harness. M y knees were shaking
and I could still feel the adrenaline and the rush of air on my face f r o m the descent.
M y lips were burning because of the speed of falling. But I didn't care h o w I looked,
because I d i d it! I j u m p e d from a height of 233 meters and fell at 200 kph!

lYuss and to screw up are both

very informal expressions.

How often do you so to the movies?

Great Movies
I'm an avid movie fan. I watch certain movies again and
again, download the soundtrack, read all the reviews and
may even buy the poster on eBay. I even watch French
and Spanish movies with the subtitles off sometimes
But, a tip for you, here's one thing I've discovered: YOL
can guess what a movie will be like from just one wore
in the title. Yes, it's true. Words like "robot," "cyborg" or
"karate" ten times out of ten indicate, well, that the movie
will be terrible. It may make millions at the box office anc
even have a sequel or t w o (How does Cyborgs from Hell II
sound?), but it will never win an Oscar.
Here are the top three words from my blacklist:

COP
If you like adventure movies and detective stories, d:
NOT rent or download movies with the word "cop" in the
title. If you do, here's what you'll see: policemen dying an::
being reincarnated as dogs or maybe teaching three-yea r -
olds, like the cop played by Arnold Schwarzenegger a fe .
years ago. My favorite title, though, is Scanner Cop, where
the main character can explode people with the power:~
his mind. H o w ' bout that?

FUTURE
Here's my adviceto Hollywood: Ifyoumakeadocumenta
about the future, it's OK to put the word "future" in the
title, of course. I mean, Planet Earth: The Future d o e s r :
sound half bad! But if you make a sci-fi, fantasy or disaste -
movie, never, ever use the word "future." Much b e t t e r :
find words that are not connected to the plot. Forexamp -
Avatar is not about computer pictures just like Twei -
Monkeys, starring Bruce Willis, is not about monkeys.

MONSTER
Do you like comedy movies? Looking for some innoce :
fun? Then how about titles such as Frog Monste ;
from Hell or Monster In the Closet. These are funny, r
scaryI guarantee. But if you like real horror mov e
full of mystery and suspenseyou know, the k
that will make you jump off your seat, promise yo.
never watch anything that has the word "monster"
it. Please. Except Monsters, Inc., originally relee:
by Pixar in 2001, which even people like me feli
love with!

f u t u r i s t s Harry Reid (HR) a n d Penny D u f f (PD) h a v e t o say a b o u t t h e t o p t h r e e questions.

HR: Probably. We've built robots t h a t can, for example, identify themselves when they look in a mirror or
even mimic our emotions according to the quality of our voice, so, yes, I think machines w i l l be able to
f e e l human emotions.
PD: Well, probably not. Consciousness is an exclusive attribute of the human brain and we probably won't
be able to teach robots how to f e e l unt il we know much more about our brain and how it functions.

HR: Definitely. Scientists have actually created a computer program t h a t can decode brain activity and
gP put it into words. So it's going to be relatively easy to capture thoughts and transmit them to another
brain, I suspect.
PD: Maybe. Synthetic telepathy seems like science fiction, I know, but I think it w i l l be possible to
establish some f o r m o f rudimentary communication through electric signals, not words.

HR: Possibly. As I've said on a number of occasions, I think computers w i l l probably be as intelligent
as humans in 2 0 2 0 or so. I f t h a t happens, I ' m pretty sure they're going t o help us f i n d a way to travel
, through time.
3f PD: Certainly. Time travel to the future is an essential characteristic of Einstein's theory of relativity,
and this has been investigated many times by lots of scientists worldwide, so maybe there w i l l be some
form of future time travel. But traveling back to the past is a whole different story. There's no evidence
t h a t this is possible. So, who knows?

8.4 Is technology making us stupid?

^ Reading
A R e a d t h e first p a r a g r a p h of t h e article a n d c h o o s e t h e b e s t title.

I s technology making us stupid?

Are w e " u n l e a r n i n g " h o w to communicate?
W h y are w e becoming s o impolite?
by Theo Smith
Over the last thirty years or so, technology has created
a world of instant and easy communication. W e are
easily accessible and online all the time, but, at the same
time, we're living in a state of profound isolation, more
disconnected from each other than ever before. We're so
dependent on texting, Facebook and Twitter, that we're
forgetting how to talk with other humans. Not convinced?
Here are four well-known conversation killers (CKs). Which
ones do you recognize?
C K 1 : It's a 21 s t century extension to your body, right?
Cut it off and life stops! W h a t if there's an important new
tweet, Facebook message and so on? So, remember: when
m4
you hear a bleep, stop talkingeven if you're in the middle
of a very interesting discussionand look at the screen
immediately. Surely the other person can wait.
CK 2: After all, you really want to help, don't you? If you
think your interlocutor is doing anything that you consider
unhealthy, impractical or immoral, tell him / her so.
Remember: The golden rule is to assume the other person
wants your sensible advice.
CK 3: Preferably in the middle of the sentence. When you
r e a l i z e your interlocutor is silent, start talking, even if you
say something stupid. Also, it doesn't matter if you change
the subject completelyyou're not actually listening
anyway, remember.
CK 4: When someone introduces a subject, find a way to
make it essentially about you. For example, a friend tells you
he / she's going to attend a rock concert. Don't ask who,
when and where. Instead, talk about the last show you went
to and why it was the best performance in showbiz history.

Are you looking for a way to make your wedding more interesting and memorable? Last Saturday a crane lifted Helen Gomez anc
James Brandon up into the air on a platform for their wedding ceremony. They got married up there, 160 feet (50 meters) in the
air with twenty surprised, and slightly scared, friends and family members, who did not know what was going to happen. After
they shared their marriage vows, Helen and James did a terrifying bungee jump from the platform.
T h e company called Marriage in the Sky offers more and more exciting weddings like this every year. After the ceremony, the
wedding party all go back down to earth, but then they all go back up again for the reception. At the reception, guests eat a
meal in special chairs wearing safety belts so they are safe and cant fall. The idea of this kind of wedding is to make a day
that really will be both entertaining and unforgettable. You're probably asking yourself, "is this safe?". The company operates
in more than 15 countries in the world, including ones that have strict rules about safety, such as the USA, Canada and
Australia. All these countries are satisfied that these weddings are safe. And... how much does something like this cost:
About US$40,000.

Celebrity RIVALRY!
Even successful people are jealous of each other. In 2 0 0 0 , when Frankie Muniz was just 14 years old
he got a huge opportunity as the star of a TV series called Malcolm in the Middle. The series was a big
hit and Muniz w o n many prizes as the main actor in the show, including a Young Star Award as best
young actor in a comedy TV series.
At the same time, there was another young actor who was also trying to be a success in Hollywood. In
2 0 0 0 , Shia Labeouf was the same age as Muniz and the star of a Disney Channel TV series called Even
Stevens. He was also nominated for the Young Star Award that year, but he lost to Frankie Muniz.
In 2003, Shia got a great opportunity when he was the star of a movie called Holes which got him
more nominations for awards and plenty of new roles in Hollywood. Entertainment Weekly called Shia
"the next Frankie Muniz." Shia was not happy w i t h this. He has been in competition w i t h Muniz since
they were 12 years old to be the best young actor in Hollywood.
Today, Shia Labeouf is one of the best known and highest paid young actors in Hollywood. Muniz, on
the other hand, is not doing much acting. He is driving racing cars and playing music, but here's the
strange thing: their rivalry continues, and Labeouf o f t e n makes comments about Muniz in interviews
and on Twitter. It just goes to show that even t h e rich and famous get jealous!

Birth order and you I

CH Your siblings: you love them, you hate them, you need
them, you don't need them. Birth order, that is, whether you
are the oldest, the youngest or in the middle in your family, can
have an effect on your personality and your family dynamics.
Are you similar to or completely different from your brothers
and sisters? Birth order can help explain why According
to Alfred Adler, an Austrian psychiatrist, birth order has a
profound effect on how you see the world. Here are a few of
the observations that Adler makes.
First born children are natural leadersthey are more
responsible and mature and are more accustomed to adult
company They are often more intelligent than their later born
siblings and they can be aggressive, because they feel they
should be in charge. They like being alone.
Middle children, on the other hand, are often the opposite
of first-born children. They feel they don't have any particular
role in their family so their friends are usually more important
to them than the family They are good at negotiating and
sociable, and people see them as adaptable and relaxed. At
the same time, they often keep secrets and they don't open up
much about their emotions.
As for the youngest in the family they are often friendly
and sociable. They like to b e with other people and are often
charming. They like to be the center of attention. They are'not
good at being alone and they get bored easily but they have
a lot of self-confidence and are not afraid to do dangerous
things. They are often more irresponsible, because they know
that someone will always help them if they have any kind of
problem.
What about if you are an only child? Well, it seems that one
of the main issues for only children is that they have to work
harder to make friends, because they don't immediately have
them in the family They are often more independent and are
used to spending time alone and entertaining themselves.

The Influence of Money Living without Money A Weird Woman

is about Heidemarie Schwermer, a German woman who decided to start living a very different kind of life about
14 years ago. At that time, she left her apartment and gave away all of her things except a suitcase full of clothes. This
was a decision that changed her life dramatically. She has no possessions, no place to live and no way to buy the things
she needs. The film follows Heidemarie in her day-to-day life and shows what it's like to live an alternative lifestyle.
Heidemarie is constantly on the move, meeting new people, staying with old and new friends for a few nights. In
addition to showing the daily problems she faces, we hear about Heidemarie's philosophy and why she has chosen to live
this way. We see that it is not easy for her to have no money in a society where everything is based on money. People
often have strong opinions about how she lives. Some call her a "parasite" while others see her as an "inspiration." Today,
she still doesn't use money and says she feels more free and independent than ever. She travels all around Germany,
and she often also visits Austria, Switzerland and Italy. She tells people about her experiences and tries to convey the
message that a simpler way of life is possible. This is a fascinating documentary for people who are interested in the
themes of materialism and consumerism and how money influences our way of thinking and living.

1 Phrasal Verbs

It's getting dark. Do you want me to turn on the light? I just lost my glasses. Can you help me
When do you want me to give your bike back? look for them?

Phrasal verbs consist of a verb + particle (preposition and / or adverb).

Most phrasal verbs are separable (the noun can go between the verb and the particle).
With separable phrasal verbs, object pronouns must come between the verb and the
particle.
A few are inseparable (nouns and pronouns go after the particle). To find out if a phrasal
verb is inseparable or not look it up in a dictionary, or the phrasal verbs list on iD Portal,
and look at the examples. M a n : Turn up the TV!
W o m a n : No! Turn it down!

A Gig Review

A Read t h e review. How does t h e m a n r a t e t h e show?

* * 7

0 My wife and I went to the Coldplay concert at the Xcel Energy Center yesterday and
1 can say it was one of the best shows I've ever been to. We arrived at the stadium an
hour before the show and went straight to our seats. Luckily, we were sitting at the front!

Marina and the Diamonds opened the show and, frankly,
they were just OK. However, when Coldplay finally appeared
on stage, everybody went crazy. Chris Martin performed
with such energy and passion that it was almost surreal!
He also interacted with the audience and looked like he was
rea//y having fun. Obviously. I can't remember all the songs,
but it had a good mix of hits and tracks from their latest
album. They even played Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean."
Not surprisingly, everybody sang along too!
0 Unfortunately, there were a few
disappointments too. For example, the
concert didn't start until 9 p.m. and
some fans were getting impatient. Also,
the music was too loudmy head's
still hurting from the bass. Still, the
show was unbelievably good. Next time
they're in town, be sure to buy a ticket.

5 An E-mail o f Inquiry

e o e ________________

i Dear ,
Q I saw your ad on www.spiritualmanhattan.com and I'd appreciate it if you could tell me a little bit more about your work.
B I'm a 30-year-old divorced lawyer and I live in downtown Manhattan. I've been out of work for four long years and, for some strange
reason, I can't find a new job. I suspect it's some sort of spiritual problem. You see, I've been to eight different fortune-tellers, but none
of them could help me. You are my last hope.
EH Here's what I'd like to know:
1. In your ad you said you're an astrologer. Can you tell me if you use astrology in your readings too?
2. You also said there are other fortune-tellers in yourfamily. Do you think you could tell me more about your fortune-telling background?
3. Could you tell me what your rates are? Both mornings (which are less expensive, correct?) and afternoons.
Q Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. I look forward to hearing from you.

Dear Adam,
You're in a difficult situation, but here are a few ideas and
suggestions for you. First of all, don't panic! You need to stay
calm. You have to talk to your brother. Why don't you invite
him for lunch or a coffee? If I were you, I'd tell him how
worried I was about him. Then you should let him talk and
let him explain how he's feeling. Ask him why his girlfriend
ended their relationship and let him know that you are there
to support and help him. Tell him how important school is for
his future (even if it's difficult to see that now) and maybe you
should offer to help him with his school work. Don't lend him
moneythis won't help him. He has to take responsibility
for himself and you need to help him with this.
Sincerely,
Marlena Duncan

what they said.
1 1 still read the newspaper every day. 1 can't
read from a computer screenI like to hold
the paper In my hand and turn the pages.

so "social media," I guess. When there's
anything big happening I hear about It there.
I don't need to go and find outIt's right
there and I can follow It easily.

usually watch the news on TV. I always
watch In the morning when I'm getting
ready for work and then late at night. I don't
have to waste time reading, I can just listen
and watch.
i On the radio. I listen to It all day. I wake up
to the radio, listen to the news In bed and
then |n the car. I love it 'cause you can listen
to the news when you drive to work or even
when you're jogging.

so I'm online all day long and I have my
favorite websites that I use for news. I never
watch TV, but I watch a lot of TV online.

can get it.

W I guess 'cos it doesn't have good facilities.
M Or it's dirty...
W Yeah, stuff like that.
M Uh-huh, uh...
W What about dropping out of college? Is that
for financial reasons too?
M No, it says the first reason is that they don't
have enough self-discipline to go to class
every day and to keep up with assignments
and homework.
W Right! So, if students miss a lot of classes,
they drop out of school. Well, no surprises
there!
M Number two is when they feel too isolated
or homesick away from their family and
friends.
W I can see thatI felt like that in college.
M Money is only number three! When they
don't have enough money to continue
studying.
W So that's pretty different from work, then?
M Yeah, interesting, and four is... personal
reasons. They have too many personal
problems like breaking up with a partner or
needing to care for a sick relative.
W That's terrible when that happens.
M Really. And the final one is...?
W Wrong choice?
M Yup, when they find they chose the wrong
thing to study, and, uh, feel they're not
interested in what they're studying.
W Oh, yeah! I know people like that!

and underpaid, and I'm in school too
and by the end of the month I hate no
money and I lhave tolpav for things with
my credit cardit's just a ficious circle.
5 W3 Food and eating is the biggest problem
for meI don't have time to eat well
and so I eat fast, easy food and this is a
really poor dietI don't eat well when
I'm stressed, then I get sick.
6 M3 Lack of sleepwhen I don't sleep well, I
get worried about not sleeping and that
stops me from sleeping and then I get
more stressed. Then, when I do sleep, I
oversleep! I'm late for class, so I|haveto|go.
7 W4 I really need to exercise eiery day to get
energy, but I'm always so tired when
I get home at night that I just drop in
front of the TV and I hawi no energy, so
lack of exercise is my biggest problem.
8 M4 OK, great, thanks, talk to you later, bye..
So, I try to do so many things at the
same time, I'm answering the phone and
writing e-mails and reading reports all
at the same time. Multitasking is really

P = presenter Dr = Dr. Marshall
P We've all hjearjd about speed reading and in
these times we all want to save sime time.
Dr. Samuel Marshall is a speed reading
exp|er|t and he is here to give us sime tips
on how to improve our reading speed and
our Understanding of what we read.
Dr Well, the fjnjst thing you can do is to give
yourself one minute to read an article,
it's better if it's an article that you are
interested in, and see how far you get. This
will give you an idea of how fast you read.
Then, start again and read for one minute.
Do this four times and try to read f a t h e r
each time you read the same article.
P And you'll find that you read f a t h e r each
time you read, correct?
Dr Yes, it's easier to read and Understand
slmething the second time you read it, so
you should read faster each time you read.
OK, second strategy to try. Read the same
short article of 200 wjorjds as many times as
you can in two minutes.
P And what will happen?
Dr You should find that each time you read
the article, you should read it faster, so if
it takes you one minute the ijujst time, it
should take you half a minute the seccr.d
time and then less the thin: time 1 ."ext
ir
strategy, if you're in a class, you can all try
to read at the same speed. If you have a a
100-w(oi]d text and you want to read at 200
w|or]ds pr] minute, the class has just tb|5jty u
seconds to read the article. to
P So, you're all trying to read at the same speed?
Dr That's right. And a final strategy to try.
O
Choose your own reading pace and time "U
yourself. For example, if you want to read
at 200 wf5r)ds p^r] minute, divide the text
into 200-w^d chinks and mark every 200
<
words. Have the alarm go off every minute
and see where you are in the text.
P Thanks Dr. Marshall. I'm [cerjtainly going to
try out a few of these ideas.

P = presenter C = Carla B = Dr. Brayman
P Now for our next caller. Carla, you're
through to Dr. Brayman.
C Hello, Dr. Brayman.
B Hi Carla. What's your question?
C It's kind of hard to talk about, but my
question is about jealousy. My partner, Jack,
calls me all the time to find out where I am
and what I'm doing.
O R e v . 6.3
B Well Carlathis is a difficult problem,
because most people who have a jealous
partner make the problem worse. If a
partner calls all the time, the natural thing
to do is don't answer the phone calls and
then you start to have secrets from your
partner. Have you found that happening'
C Yes, totally! I mean, sometimes, he calls me
every hour, even when I'm at work! I don't
answer the phone, or I sometimes tell him
that I left my phone at homeanything so
that I don't have to answer his calls.
B And I understand that, but this makes Jack
more jealous and then he calls you even
more and you have to find other ways not to
take his calls and you start to become more
and more secretive, right?
C That's right, so what would you do Dr.
Brayman?
B The best way to deal with a jealous partner
is to talk about where the jealousy is
coming from. Your partner feels jealous
because he's afraid of losing you. Try
talking to him about his fears and worries.
Tell him that you love him and that you
aren't going to leave him. Tell him that his
jealousy is having a negative effect on your
relationship. But at the same time you need
to build his self-esteem and confidence.
C I see, so you think I should talk to him
instead of ignoring his phone calls?
B Yes, but remember that he's not going to
change from one day to the next. A problem
like this will take months and even years, so
you also need to decide if you want to take
this time. If your partner agreed, I would
recommend that you both go and talk to
an expert.
C Yeah, maybe he would go to a counselor.
I'll try it. Thanks, Dr. Brayman.
B Good luck. Carla.
