ELLLO   - PRE INTERMEDIATE  AND INTERMEDIATE

http://www.elllo.org/english/1101/1118-Dream-Warren.htm

Lindsay: Hey, Warren.

Warren: Hey, how's it going?

Lindsay: Good. I thought today we could talk about childhood dreams. When you were ten years old, what did you want to be when you grew up?

Warren: Right. Well actually it's a little embarrassing. I wanted to be a truck driver. I thought it would be really neat because you can just travel around everywhere and see different places all the time and you're always on the move. But you know I didn't become a truck driver.

Lindsay: No, you didn't become a truck driver. Why is that? When did your dream change?

Warren: Well probably when I was around fifteen I thought it would be a lot cooler to be a rock star.

Lindsay: Rock star?

Warren: Yeah, a rock star. I really liked electric guitar at the time and a lot of friends were into music as well so I didn't actually start a band but I played with a lot of different people and sometimes I would play with some bands but I never really stuck to it. But I did keep playing guitar and I ended up getting pretty good.

Lindsay: What kind of rock star did you want to be? Did you want to be like a heavy metal rock star or a grunge rock star?

Warren: I guess versatile would be the word. I liked playing a lot of heavy stuff and maybe some folk music as well, so kind ofeclectic.

Lindsay: So maybe a hippie rock star?

Warren: Yeah, maybe a hippie.

Lindsay: So then when you were twenty, did you still want to be a rock star?

Warren: No I didn't but I still played guitar then. I actually wanted to be a classical guitarist by then.

Lindsay: OK. What is classical guitar?

Warren: Well it's funny you say that because it's not just classical music. Classical guitar is, for one thing it's the type of guitar. It has nylon strings, not the steel strings like you see on a folk guitar.

Lindsay: OK.

Warren: And there's different styles you can play on it like Spanish music, or flamenco, or South American music, some classical music like Beethoven and things like that, or baroque music like Bach.

Lindsay: Does it have a singer with it?

Warren: Sometimes there are singers. Usually it's solo but you can play some chamber music with other instruments as well and yes I played some pieces with vocalists but it wouldn't be pop music.

Lindsay: And so now you're older, did your dream come true? Did you become a classical guitarist?

Warren: I did but I actually decided to change my dream after I become a classical guitarist.

Lindsay: So what's your dream now?

Warren: Well my dream now is to become a university professor.

Lindsay: Oh, and are you making steps to achieve that dream?

Warren: I am actually. I'm working at a university now, not as a professor, as a part time lecturer but I'm taking some courses and studying hard and hoping that my future will allow me to become a professor.

Lindsay: OK, well unless you change your dream again, I bet you'll achieve your dream so good luck.

Warren: Great. Thank you.

PRE INTERMEDIATE AND INTERMEDIATE http://www.elllo.org/english/MX/T079A-Adventure.htm Lori / Canada Oh, right now, the adventure I am planning is an extensive trip in Southeast Asia. I've always dreamed of going to Angor Wat, so I want to see that place before it's been overrun with too many tourists. Chris / England Well, I always said that I wanted to try parachute jumping, and I had the chance when I was in high school to do that but my dad stopped me going in the end because he said ... well, I'm quite a big guy - quite heavy ... and so, he was like, "Well, if you want to do it, then you really should lose a bit of weight because, you know, you're gonna fall and you're gonna shatter your legs" so he was very supportive of my dream, so in the future I think I'd like to try that, but maybe I should lose some weight. Aki / Japan I want to go to Antartica and maybe go on a dog sleigh. I don't like the cold weather, but I want to experience that sleigh and actually I want to go on the dog sleigh for my honeymoon and experience Antartica with my husband. Amir / Iran I would like to do skydiving, yeah. Skydiving, because I have acrophobia. This would be the biggest adventure I could can take. Just falling from the airplane for a few minutes. You know, now silence there. It would be strengthening me from inside, doing this adventure. Helen / Canada Well, I would really like to go cycling somewhere like Nepal or something like that, where there's lots of rugged mountains and beautiful scenery. I don't think I'm in shape enough to do it just now but maybe some time in the future, when I have more time to work out and stuff. Eoin / England A big adventure I'd like to do is another long-distance cycling trip. Previously I cycled around Japan - a few areas in Japan ... a cycle trip around Europe. I think I'd like to do a huge trip from somewhere in Europe to somewhere in Asia and maybe like England across to Beijing or something like that.

INTERMEDIATE 

The following are letters to the editor of a school newspaper.

Students should be allowed to study without worrying about grades. Fortunately, most educators are becoming aware of the fact that students have different interests and abilities. However, the regimentation resulting from grades still exists. Grades often stifle creativity. Competing for better grades causes many students to turn down opportunities to pursue music, dramatics and sports. Grades impose an arbitrary standard of success on everyone. I do not demand as some extremists do, that grades be abolished immediately. However, I do believe that less emphasis should be placed on grades. I hope that someday grades will become optional at Village High School.

Magdalena Smith, President,



Drama Club

Let's face the facts about grades. Grades perform three basic functions. First, grades motivate students to work at their highest level of competence. Second, they act as a reward for hardworking students and as a reprimand to students who do not work hard. Finally, grades are used as an effective standard by which to measure student achievement. Good grades help students to get jobs and to get into university. I've spoken with a number of students who have jobs, and most of them say that they were hired primarily on the basis of their grades. My grades helped me land a part-time job and will help me get into university next year. I think grades are extremely important at Village High School.

Simon Harper, Member,
Science Club

Hello, I'm Fabia from Argentina. The question is what is something you enjoy doing with your family?

Well here in Argentina it's traditional to have lunch with the whole family on Sundays. We make asado which is a big barbeque with all kinds of meats. Argentina is a country known because of their meats, the quality of the meats, so we just gather every Sunday and talk about the week and also drink a lot of wine.

One person I really admire is Charles Darwin. If you don't know, he's a very, very famous scientist which lived in the 1800's. He was born in England but travelled the world and came up with probably the most influential science of our time. He discovered the theory of evolution, and this theory has changed the way we think about life, and has changed the way I personally think about life and the world and how science works, so he's really amazing. He thought outside the box, and came up with something really original and really important and changed a lot people's perceptions. I also like Charles Darwin because he was very into nature and discovering how it worked and how different animals did the same things in different ways, and really brought zoology and wildlife into people's homes and into people's books, so he made a lot of big changes to the world. That's why I like Charles Darwin.

Students should be allowed to study without worrying about grades. Fortunately, most educators are becoming aware of the fact that students have different interests and abilities. However, the regimentation resulting from grades still exists. Grades often stifle creativity. Competing for better grades causes many students to turn down opportunities to pursue music, dramatics and sports. Grades impose an arbitrary standard of success on everyone. I do not demand as some extremists do, that grades be abolished immediately. However, I do believe that less emphasis should be placed on grades. I hope that someday grades will become optional at Village High School. Magdalena Smith, President, Drama Club Let's face the facts about grades. Grades perform three basic functions. First, grades motivate students to work at their highest level of competence. Second, they act as a reward for hardworking students and as a reprimand to students who do not work hard. Finally, grades are used as an effective standard by which to measure student achievement. Good grades help students to get jobs and to get into university. I've spoken with a number of students who have jobs, and most of them say that they were hired primarily on the basis of their grades. My grades helped me land a part-time job and will help me get into university next year. I think grades are extremely important at Village High School. Simon Harper, Member, Science Club 1. Simon Harper writes from the viewpoint of someone who (a) wants business to hire more students (b) believes in the benefits of good grades (c) is concerned about students' creativity (d) supports students' interests and abilities (e) doesn't work too hard at his studies 2. Magdalena Smith thinks it is important for (a) students to get good jobs (b) students to participate in music, dramatics, and sports (c) students to compete more for grades (d) educators to have more control over grades (e) students to be reprimanded for not working hard 3. Which of the following states a fact about grades at Village High School? (a) They are not useful (b) They stifle creativity (c) They foster unnecessary competition (d) They should be optional (e) They are currently in use 4. Which of the following is NOT an opinion expressed by Magdalena Smith? (a) Grades should be abolished. (b) Regimentation results from grades. (c) Grades impose arbitrary standards of success. (d) Students should be able to learn without worrying about grades. (e) Competition may discourage students from pursuing subjects such as drama and art. ________________________________________________________________ ARCHITECTURE A BRAND NEW STYLE HELLEN WANTS TO MAKE SOME CHANGES IN HER HOUSE.  SEH WANTS TO BRING SOME GAMOUR AND GLOSS TO HER HOUSE.
