Year Test 1
A Celine, you are a children's book
writer. You write about schools in
your Wild School books. Why is that?
B Well, I didn't like my school when I
was young. I thought Science and
Drama were boring. And of course
they aren't boring. There were a lot
of rules.
A Do you remember any?
B Oh yes. For example: Don't talk in
class. Don't ask questions. Don't read
comics at school
A I see
B ...and I wanted to create a new
school in my stories. So in my books,
the children can decide the rules.
A Can you give us an example?
B Yes. In Science lessons the students
can do magic.
