Ex.8
Students’ own answers. Possible answer: Have I told you about the time I got lost during my school trip to London? No one in my family had ever been to London before, and I think my parents were more excited than me! They had told me to take lots of photos. Anyway, back to the story. It was the day of a visit to the Tower of London. As we were talking there with our teacher, I saw a great view of the river, and I stopped to take a photo. But when I looked for my classmates, they had disappeared! I didn’t know which way to go. I remember feeling really scared because I couldn’t really speak English then, and London is a huge city. Luckily, I heard a couple speaking Italian. I asked them if they knew where the Tower of London was. They were very kind, and they gave me a map. I ran there, and my teacher and classmates were waiting for me. We had missed our guided tour, but we did one an hour later instead. So all in all, it wasn’t a disaster.

The last important decision I made was last month. I needed to decide whether to buy a new laptop, or to save my money. I decided to save my money, because I wasn’t sure. I can always change my mind in the future. It takes me a long time, and afterwards I spend a lot of time wondering if I made the right decision.

It’s a big decision. What are the pros and cons of each? Jodie Well, the Art course would be really fun, but if I study Maths, then I could get a more secure job in the future. I’m in two minds. Simon Have you thought about talking to your parents about it? Jodie That’s a good idea. Thanks, Simon.

Students’ own answers. Possible answers: Situation 1: I think the best thing to do is to tell your friend that the students feel bad for her and want to buy her a card. It’s then her decision whether she tells them the truth or not. She’s the one who lied, so she needs to take responsibility for her actions. Situation 2: I think the best thing to do is to try and find more evidence that the person copied their work. Is there a text that is almost exactly the same online? I need to be 100% sure before I say anything. If I’m wrong, I will look very stupid. Situation 3: I think the best thing to do is to tell our parents. My brother will listen to them more than to me, because they can punish him if they think he’s done something wrong. They also have more life experience than me. © OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS • PHOTOCOPIABLE

Hi Florence I’m in Maine, USA, on holiday in the mountains. I’ve been walking for seven days! I’d never visited before – it’s beautiful countryside and it reminds me of Europe. I didn’t use to enjoy being outside but now I adore it. The weather has been cold, but I’m wearing the big checked shirt and waterproof jacket that Mum gave me. I’ve already seen lots of interesting things and I’ve just posted some photos. Share or ‘like’ them if you want. I’ve posted some videos too – maybe they’ll go viral! My leg is hurting a bit today. I was climbing a mountain yesterday and I fell. Maybe I was going too quickly. It’s better to take my time and walk more slowly and more carefully. I haven’t eaten my breakfast yet. There’s a café here with a lot of delicious food. I can’t make up my mind what to choose. I miss you a lot. Send me a tweet with your news! Lots of love, Matilda

Alternatively, I could buy her a ticket to the theatre. 4 A What are the pros and cons of being vegetarian? B That’s a difficult question. On the one hand, you’re helping the planet because plants and vegetables need a lot less space than animals like cows. But on the other hand, you have a lot less choice about what to eat. Do you agree? A Yes, I do. Also, vegetarian food can often be healthier.

Ex.10
Students’ own answers. Possible answer: Today, I’d like to talk to you about animal research. We were asked ‘Is it wrong to use animals to research and test medicines and other products?’ There are arguments on both sides, but I strongly believe that no, animal research isn’t wrong. There are a number of reasons for my position on this. Firstly, animal research has had huge benefits to us and made it possible for us to lead healthier lives. It allows us to know if new medicines and treatments are safe for humans to take. For example, scientists might not have been able to develop the latest cancer treatment that is now available. Secondly, animal research is definitely not as cruel as people think. The scientists who work with animals are trained to recognise if animals are in pain, or suffering in any other way, and to treat them if they need it. It certainly is not torture, as a lot of people believe. I’d like to finish by saying this. I hope that people learn the facts about animal research and realise both how much it benefits us, and that it isn’t as bad as they think, and stop protesting against it. Thank you for listening.

Can you imagine life without the Internet? Do you find it difficult to turn off your phone? How many times a day do you tweet, post photos or share memes? Are you going to download an app today? Yesterday, I was chatting with my grandparents. They are worried because of the development of modern technology and they think that life is more stressful now. They used to write letters and postcards to their friends. It must have been really nice to receive a real letter. On the other hand, they could only use the house phone to call their friends. Having unlimited access to the Internet only costs 20 euros a month. I think that’s a bargain. Last week, I managed to find a lot of information online to help me with a very difficult project about extinction, radiation and other threats to the planet. My grandparents think that we would all be happier if we slowed down. Who agrees with them?

But you seem really confident. A I’m not really. I’m quite shy and I prefer to chat to people that I already know! 3 A I think that the Internet is the most important invention of our time. B I’m not sure if I agree. It’s important, but I think it has a lot of disadvantages. People don’t communicate with each other face-to-face now, only online. A That’s true, but I think the Internet has improved our lives in a lot of different ways too.

Students’ own answers. Students’ own answers. Possible answer: These photos both show unusual buildings in a city. In the first photo, there’s a white building with a huge white structure as part of it. It looks a bit like a spaceship! I can see a lot of people walking in front of the building. They might be tourists, because it looks like a museum, but I’m not sure. Moving onto the second photo, I can see a tall building. It’s painted in bright colours. It isn’t graffiti – it looks like someone has painted it to make it beautiful. Unlike the first photo, I can only see one person. He – or she – might live in the building, but I’m not sure. I prefer photo 1, because I love strange buildings like this and it looks like a nice sunny day.

If the police see you doing it, they could give you a fine. Sasha I didn’t realise. I’m really sorry. It won’t happen again. Teacher That’s OK. No harm done. But make sure you remember never to drop litter in public. Have you got your identity card with you? Sasha I’m afraid not. Is that illegal, too? Teacher No, it isn’t illegal, but it makes sense to carry it with you. Sasha OK, thanks. I’ll remember it next time.

Students’ own answers. Possible answers: Role card A: We’re in favour of closing down the youth centre because it has caused a lot of crime in our neighbourhood. It used to be safe and quiet, but now we feel unsafe walking around. There was a mugging last month. Also, we feel that our cars and houses might be damaged. A lot of cars have had their windows smashed. We think it’s because young people who enjoy causing damage are coming to the area because of the youth club. Role card B: We’re against closing down the youth club. We know there have been some problems with crime, but we don’t think the youth club is to blame. If we didn’t have it, there would be nothing for young people to do, and there would be more crime. The youth club is great fun, and everyone makes new friends and learns new activities there. We think it makes the community friendlier and it makes young people happier.

A I’ve just listened to an interview on local radio. The abandoned factory on the waterfront is going to be restored, and they want people to work on the project. B Really? Are you considering doing it? A Yes. The woman said that they were looking for people who were reliable and responsible. She explained that it would be important to know how to be a team player. B It sounds interesting. Will you be paid? A No, it’s a volunteer project. I’m working part-time at the moment, so I’ve got time. B Personally, I wouldn’t work on a project if they didn’t pay me. I suggest thinking about it first. If you rush into a decision, you might regret it. A It’s too late. I’ve already made up my mind. I start next week! B Good luck, then.

I’m happy to admit that I’m wrong about things! 2 A If only there were better facilities in our town. B I agree. I wish there was a skatepark or an outdoor swimming pool. A That’s right. I also wish we had more cycle lanes. We have to cycle on the road and it’s really dangerous. Perhaps we could write to the town mayor about it. 3 A It’s not worth spending a lot of money on a phone. B I disagree. If you buy a cheap phone, it won’t be very good. It will be slow, or it will stop working and you’ll have to buy another. A Well, my phone cost less than €100, and I’ve had it for four years now! Maybe I’ve just been lucky. Language for life B1+ Teacher's Book answer keys

Students’ own answers. Possible answer: Last week, I had a day I’ll never forget. The day in question was a school trip to a science museum in Rome. The school bus arrived early. As to be expected, everybody was talking excitedly about the trip. Unfortunately, the traffic was bad and the journey took longer than usual. The bus was also old and the air on the bus wasn’t good. I started to get a headache. Things weren’t going to plan! When we finally arrived, I was feeling awful. Our teacher gave us worksheets and I decided to sit down quietly for a few minutes before starting. Meanwhile the rest of the class entered the first room. A little later, I was feeling a bit better, and I went to follow them. Suddenly, I was on the floor! Thankfully, one of the museum assistants helped me up and took me to the staff room to get a drink… and I saw a famous politician! He was preparing to give a talk at the museum that evening. Eventually, I felt better and joined my friends. We couldn’t stay for the politician’s talk, but seeing someone famous certainly made it a day to remember.

My favourite possession is a very old watch. It isn’t valuable, it isn’t waterproof and of course it isn’t digital, but it reminds me of my grandfather.

Students’ own answer. Possible answer: The dishwasher first appeared in 1886. Josephine Cochrane was fed up because her servants broke the plates when they were washing up. She decided to think outside the box, and she soon came up with a radical solution. The idea was that a machine held the plates safely while the water was washing them. A little later, Josephine’s husband died and she needed her idea to make money. She showed her plans to a few different men to ask for some help and eventually George Butters, a mechanic, helped her to build a working machine. The craze took off in hotels at first, not in people’s homes. Also, doctors and nurses realised that the machine could use hotter water than human hands, so dishwashers were a hit with hospitals. The idea of a machine that could do the work of people in the kitchen was a stroke of genius! Not every home has a dishwasher, of course, but this machine is definitely a must-have in hotels, restaurants and public buildings with kitchens, and it has definitely changed how the people there work.

A I’m glad I asked you. You’ve got good taste in clothes. Everything looks great on you. B Thanks. What other designs have you got? I’d love to see your hats. A I’m not bothered about hats, to be honest. When I was younger, I used to design every type of clothes, but now I prefer to design jackets, jumpers and T-shirts.

Students’ own answer. Possible answer: No one should leave school before the age of 18. We carried out a survey on attitudes to the school leaving age. We asked eighty 16–18-year-olds their opinion on the statement ‘No one should leave school before the age of 18’. They responded by choosing from a range of answers from ‘strongly agree’ to ‘strongly disagree’. About half agreed with the proposal and a quarter agreed strongly with it. The main reason they gave was that young people don’t really know what they want to be when they leave school. They also felt that you needed to get qualifications to show future employers. Some people in this group also thought unemployment was a real problem for young people, so staying at school was the best option. Just under 15% disagreed, but only approximately 5% disagreed strongly. They felt that young people know what they want. One person mentioned that university is not for everyone and that you learn about life from work, not school. About 5% didn’t have an opinion and didn’t make any comments. Our results allow us to conclude that most young people think no one should leave school before the age of 18.

Hi Liam. What’s the matter? I can’t decide what to do next year. I can’t make up my mind. What are your options? I could go to university. I’m interested in medicine, but I’m not sure if I want to work in a hospital. Alternatively, I could look for a job or I could go travelling. What are the pros and cons of each? Actually, I don’t really have enough money to go travelling. I’d like to go to university, but I’d also like to take a break from my studies. What about getting a job? I don’t know what job I’d like to do! It’s a difficult decision. Have you thought about looking for a job in a hospital? My cousin has been working in a hospital for six months, and next year he’s going to study medicine. You could do the same. That’s a great idea, thanks!

Students’ own answer. Possible answer: Last week, I bought a new smartphone. Mine had become so slow, and the battery ran down in just a couple of hours. I did an online search, and found out that there were three mobile phone shops in the new shopping centre in the city centre called Shopping Heaven. Outside, there was a map with the names of the shops and it looked impressive because all the big names were there. However, it was a bit chaotic inside because not all the shops are open yet. In the end, I found two of the shops open and I was really impressed by the shop assistants’ knowledge in both shops. Mobile Madness has an outstanding range and the prices were reasonable. It’s a real find for anyone who needs a new phone. Phones on the Move sells fewer brands, but they’re all the latest models. The one drawback is that most of them are very expensive, so I went back to Mobile Madness to buy mine. I recommend visiting Shopping Heaven in a few months if you can. More shops will be open then. At the moment it’s a bit uninviting.

Unit 6
Students’ own answer. Possible answer: Hey Fran Sorry you’re having a tough time with your friend. I know the situation you’re in is difficult. Believe me, I’ve been there. If I were you, I’d hang in there for a bit before saying anything to your friend. Think about other times he’s borrowed stuff. Did he return things in good condition? The other problem is your parents. If I were you, I’d tell them it’s broken, but whatever you do, don’t say your friend broke it until you know the truth. My advice is to talk to your friend, but stay chilled. You mustn’t make it sound like you’re accusing him. If he says he didn’t break it, you should believe him. Don’t go on about it. Meanwhile, tell your parents, but explain that you don’t know how it got broken. Perhaps you could take it to a shop first and ask how much it will cost to fix it. It might not be expensive. Anyway, I’m sure you’ll find an answer. But whatever you do, remember not to lend him anything expensive again. Hope everything goes well! Marco

Students’ own answer. Possible answer: Do you think it is necessary to modify food genetically to feed the world? Some people say that since there is a growing population, we have to use genetically modified food to feed the world. However, I am not convinced that it’s the best solution. In the first place, we waste too much of the food we produce. In western countries, people throw away thousands of tonnes of unused food every year. In addition, some fruit and vegetables are left in the fields because of their appearance. Supermarkets claim people will only buy ‘perfect’ fruit and vegetables. It seems clear to me that if we used this food, there would be more to help feed the world. Secondly, there are problems with some genetically modified food as modifications allow more chemicals to be used. This can’t be good for our health. Thirdly, farmers can’t always use the seed from genetically modified plants and they have to buy new seed every year. That makes genetically modified crops very expensive for small farms, particularly in Africa and Asia. To summarise, we don’t need genetically modified food to feed the world. We need to make sure we don’t waste what we produce.

Today, I’d like to talk to you about mobile phones. I think the mobile phone is the most significant invention. There are a number of reasons that explain my view. First of all, they are great for keeping in touch with people, especially if your friends and families live far away. Secondly, mobile phones can be really useful in an emergency. If you’re hurt or in danger, you can use your phone to call the police or an ambulance. If you didn’t have a mobile phone, you would have to wait for someone to find you. There are arguments on both sides, and some people think that we spend too much time on our phones these days. It’s true that it’s possible to waste a lot of time on your phone – taking selfies and playing games. But I’d like to finish by saying this: I strongly believe that we’d miss mobile phones if we didn’t have them.
Ex.4
Solving problems is best done in teams. For example, as a species, humans often need to deal with new threats, such as viruses or diseases. If you aim to develop a cure for these, you need to remember that it takes a long time and a lot of people. Most scientific explorations and inventions nowadays are the work of large teams, which often come from several different countries. If we can’t collaborate across national frontiers, science will become more difficult.

A The advert says that it involves reading to very young children, old people or disabled people. B That sounds interesting. But I’m not sure if I’m the right type of person. I’m a bit of an introvert, and it sounds like you have to enjoy being with people. A I’m the opposite. I love meeting new people. B Is there any more information? A Yes, it says you should be enthusiastic about reading – for example, novels, magazines, children’s stories, biographies. B So are you going to do it? A Yes, I am. I think it sounds like a great project. Language for life B1+ Teacher's Book answer keys

It is often said that we like people whose personality is different from ours. A sociable person is often friends with somebody who is more of an introvert. Two leaders won’t get on with each other. But have you ever asked yourself if it’s true? My best friend and I are both adventurous and confident people, which seems to show that similar characters can like each other.

Students’ own answers. Possible answers: 1 There’s one modern high-rise building in the centre. Most people are happy to keep the ancient buildings. 2 There are some abandoned and run-down buildings in Veronetta, but they could be used for nice, new flats and, in fact, rich people are already doing that. 3 No! This is a problem. Instead of making new green spaces which could be used for open-air events, or just walking the dog, they build a new block of flats. It’s terrible. 4 In the industrial zone, there are some futuristic buildings, but Verona is an old Roman and medieval city, so futuristic buildings would look terrible here! 5 There are hundreds of heritage buildings! Apart from Rome, Florence and Venice, there are more than any other Italian city. I’ve visited them all! They’re fantastic. 6 The transport links are good. Verona is on the railway lines from Milan to Venice and Bologna to Austria. They are better than lots of Italian cities. There are some people who cycle, but usually in the country, not in the city. There are some cycle lanes, but not enough.

Current situation At the moment, it is difficult for students to practise in the Music room. Also, there are no computers or CD players, and as a result students can’t listen to music or record their own music. Suggested action The Music room is quite big and at the moment only a small part of it is used. Consequently, the room could be divided in two, and new computers with speakers and recording equipment could be installed in one half. There could also be lessons in how to use the technology, which is a useful skill for students who want to work in the music business. Advantages of the proposal Having this new technology would improve students’ ability in Music (and other subjects) and recordings could be uploaded to improve the school’s online profile. The equipment could also be used by people outside school hours and this could help with the cost of the project.

1 When were the Elgin Marbles made? They were made around 2,400 years ago. 2 When were they first put on display? They were first put on display in 1816. 3 How were they moved to the UK? The Earl of Elgin had them transported to the UK by ship. 4 Were the Marbles stolen by Elgin? No, they weren’t. He was given permission to take them by the Greek government at the time. 5 Who were they bought by? They were bought by the British government. 6 Why is it better (according to some experts) that the Marbles are kept in London? It’s better because they are displayed in perfect atmospheric conditions. 7 Are there more historical artefacts in different countries which are wanted by their country of origin? Yes, there are. 8 What would happen if the Marbles were returned? Many other museums would have to return exhibits.

These photos both show places in a city. In the first photo, I can see a square in a city centre. It’s a historic square with some ancient buildings, but there are a lot of cars. There are a few people sitting at some tables. They might be shopping. In the city where I live, the centre is like this. If the main square was only for cyclists and pedestrians, it would be much nicer. There could also be more cycle lanes created. Moving onto the second photo, I can see an abandoned building. It might be a factory. It’s old and it looks like it used to be very beautiful, so it might be a heritage building. Unlike the first photo, there aren’t any people or cars, but there are some green spaces around the building. I think old buildings like this should be restored so that people can enjoy them again.

Last year, Mum and Dad decided to have a swimming pool constructed in the garden behind our house. We had the garden excavated by a local builder. He discovered that there was an old building buried under the ground. It had been built during the war, and then abandoned, and it had never been used since then. It was beautifully preserved, but we had to get it removed to build the pool.

There’s something on the local news about it nearly every day. 2 I’ve experienced someone hacking into my Facebook account, but I’m not sure whether it’s a crime. I think other types of cybercrime are very common in Italy. 3 Some young people commit vandalism possibly because they have nothing to do and no money. They also shoplift quite a lot. 4 Muggings are more frequent, perhaps because of smartphones, and cybercrime is becoming a big problem too. I’m not sure if any crimes are becoming less frequent, but maybe there are fewer kidnappings. 5 I don’t think you can justify any crimes. My friend thinks there’s an excuse for very poor people who shoplift or pickpocket if they don’t hurt or frighten anyone, but I don’t agree.

they commit new crimes to get money and end up back in prison. The second one is that if ordinary people have to work, prisoners should also have to do it. On the other hand, people argue that if prisoners work, they will feel life is normal and won’t feel punished. Furthermore, prisons would need to employ people to organise the work, which would be expensive. However, if we could stop people returning to prison, it would be cheaper in the long term. Taking both sides of the argument into consideration, I think that prisoners should work. I think that this would give them useful skills that could help them stay out of prison after they’re released.

Students’ own answer. Possible answer: Many people work around 35 hours a week, but criminals in prison don’t have to do this. If we think work helps people to take responsibility, should criminals also work 35 hours a week? There are two main arguments for prisoners working. The first one is that they are often unemployed before they go to prison and they don’t have any work skills. Some find a job when they come out of prison, but many of them don’t.

Young people in Italy wear different types of clothes compared to older people. Where older people prefer more classic styles, in darker colours, young people like to try out different styles, with bold prints and brighter colours. In Italy, we tend to shop in the city, buying clothes from high street shops as well as smaller boutiques. Only for a very special occasion would a person go to a tailor and have an item made especially for him or her.

1 Students’ own answers. 2 Possible answers: I think fashion is a very important part of the culture in my country. We tend to prefer classical, elegant styles, rather than the bold, fun styles in UK fashion. Young people wear different fashions compared to older people. They tend to be attracted by new styles and brighter colours, while older people tend to follow more classical trends and use dark colours. 3 Possible answer: There are a lot of famous designers in Italy, like Armani, D&G and Versace and they certainly have a big influence on the fashion industry here. But people also follow the fashions that they see on TV, in magazines and in the news. When we see our favourite actors or singers, for example, wearing something interesting, we are encouraged to try out new styles. 4 Possible answer: Young people generally like to go shopping. It’s like a social activity that we do a lot at the weekends with our friends and it’s a way to compare styles and get advice about what looks good on us and what doesn’t! So, I would say that young people mainly buy their clothes in shops in the city centre or in shopping malls. Some people buy things online, too. 5 Students’ own answers.

Students’ own answers. Possible answer: Fashion and style is a very big part of the culture in Italy. We have a long history in European fashion and design, and our most famous designers are known all over the world, for example, Versace, Dolce & Gabbana, Armani, and many more. The most important city for fashion design is Milan, where Italy Fashion Week is held every year. I think many people in my country are interested in fashion, both girls and boys. We like to see what the newest fashions are for the design houses and copy them with high-street styles.

Students’ own answers. Possible answers: 1 There is a very famous department store in Milan called La Rinascente. It was one of Italy’s first department stores. 2 La Rinascente sells clothes and accessories for men, women and children, as well as jewellery, cosmetics and all types of items for the home including furniture. It also sells food and has its own restaurant. It is different from most other stores because of its history and also because it sells such a varied choice of items from one store. 3 Lots of different people go shopping at La Rinascente. They sell good quality brands, so they can be more expensive than other places, which means I only go shopping there if I need to buy something for a special occasion. A lot of tourists visit the store because of its great history. 4 I have been to La Rinascente, but I didn’t visit the original department store in Milan. I went to the one in Rome instead. 5 I went to La Rinascente to buy a dress for my cousin’s wedding. It’s a really beautiful shop and they sell some really cool clothes. I would like to visit the original shop in Milan, too.
Ex.4
Students’ own answers. Possible answer: There is a famous department store in Milan called La Rinascente, which celebrated its 100th birthday in 2017. In fact, it was one of the first stores in Italy to combine different ‘departments’ into one large store. It first opened in the centre of Milan, very close to the main cathedral, but later more stores appeared in big cities in Italy, like Rome, Florence and Turin. La Rinascente is a top-quality department store, which sells everything from sunglasses to office furniture, including clothes, jewellery, accessories and even food! Lots of tourists visit the original store in Milan because it is one of the oldest and most important department stores in Italy, and it is very close to the city’s cathedral. Personally, I have visited the store in Rome, when I went there to buy a new dress for my cousin’s wedding. It’s not the kind of store that I normally go shopping in, but it’s perfect when you’re looking for something for a special occasion. I would like to visit the store in Milan one day because they often host world-class designers and it would be a really awesome experience to meet them in the store!

Students’ own answers. Possible answer: The Agenzia Spaziale Italiana, or the Italian Space Agency, has been coordinating Italy’s space programme since 1988. Italy first got involved in the space race in the 1960s and it is still an important participant in the European Space Agency’s work today. Over the years ASI has worked closely with NASA, and in recent years it has been a fundamental contributor to the International Space Station project. In fact, Roberto Vittori was the first Italian astronaut to be selected for a mission to the International Space Station. He travelled to the space station on a ten-day mission called Marco Polo in 2002. ASI astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti was the first Italian woman to travel to space. She currently holds the record for the longest uninterrupted space flight amongst European astronauts and it is believed that she is the first person to make an Italian espresso coffee in space! The research of astronauts has led to major discoveries about our universe and the development of technologies that we use in our everyday lives on Earth.

In contrast, another building which I adore is the Auditorium Parco della Musica in Rome. This enormous structure was designed by Italian architect Renzo Piano and was opened in 2002. It isn’t just a simple concert hall. In fact, the Auditorium is a complex of three indoor concert halls, which look like giant beetles from above, and an outdoor amphitheatre, which sits in a 30,000 m2 park in Rome’s suburbs. I love going to concerts at the Auditorium because it is a really interesting structure and the sound quality of the concert halls and the amphitheatre is outstanding!

Students’ own answers. Possible answer: There is a lot of great architecture in Italy, but one of my favourite buildings is the Palazzo Pitti, or the Pitti Palace, in Florence. It is one of the city’s largest architectural monuments and is home to some of Florence’s most important museums, including the Royal Apartments and the Gallery of Modern Art. The Pitti Palace was designed by one of the founders of Renaissance architecture, Filippo Brunelleschi. It was built in the second half of the 15th century as a home for the Pitti family, but it was later sold to the Medicis, who developed and extended the property to the vast size it is today.

Students’ own answers. Possible answers: As in the USA, there are two main parties involved in a criminal law case in Italy; the suspect and the public prosecutor. The suspect is the person who is accused of committing a crime, and he/she is represented by his lawyer. The public prosecutor represents the state and is often helped in his/her investigations by a branch of the police, called the judiciary police. Language for life B1+ Teacher's Book answer keys
57
C
As in the USA, there is a preliminary hearing with a judge to determine if there is enough evidence to convict the suspect of a crime. When the public prosecutor calls the suspect to a preliminary hearing, his/her status changes from suspect to defendant. If the judge is convinced that there is enough evidence, the parties proceed to a trial. In Italy, there is no system of trial by jurors like in the USA, so the trial is heard by a judge, or in some cases a panel of judges, who will decide if the defendant is innocent or guilty and, in the case of a guilty verdict, what sentence he/she receives. The whole process is governed by a system called the Italian Code of Criminal Procedure.

Students’ own answers. Possible answers: 1 The French Revolution took place in the late 18th century (1789–1799). There were many problems in France before the Revolution: the economy was in crisis, French society was very divided and unequal, people thought that the king and the aristocracy didn’t understand ordinary people and they were corrupt. After the Revolution, things like education became much more easily available to poorer people. 2 Dickens had strong views against slavery and social and legal inequality for poor people. 3 The Defarges want a revolution because the economic crisis is affecting their business and their friend is a victim of injustice.
Ex.1
He is killed by the Marquis of Evrémonde’s carriage.
Ex.2
1 Because he waited for hours to see the king, but was unsuccessful. 2 He is leaving Paris because he is going home. 3 On the corner of the street in Saint Antoine, in Paris. 4 At first they screamed, then they came close to the coach and stared at the Marquis with cold, unemotional faces. 5 He is bored and impatient. 6 He gave Gaspard a coin as compensation because he had killed his child. Maybe he felt sorry for him. 7 He probably gave Defarge a coin because he tried to calm Gaspard and make him think of the event positively. 8 She was knitting and staring at the Marquis’s face.
Ex.3
Students’ own answers. Possible answers: 1 He is a very cold, arrogant and egotistical man. He doesn’t have any feelings for other people or their problems. He thinks that all he has to do when his coach kills the child is give the father some money. He is impatient because of the delay the accident has caused and he doesn’t apologise or offer to help the family. 2 I think Defarge threw back the money because he was angry with the Marquis and didn’t want to take money from him. Possibly because he also didn’t want to accept the Marquis’s position and his attitude that money can solve the problem. He also probably wants to show the Marquis that the child’s life is worth more than a gold coin. 3 She was making sure she knew what the Marquis looked like. She wants to remember him so she can plan her revenge.

Students’ own answers. Possible answer: We met in a cellar of a local restaurant, late one night, after everyone had gone home. The owner of the restaurant let us in. There were about 20 people. The room was very crowded. We decided to meet because we had heard rumours that there was going to be a revolution, and we wanted to see how much support there was for it. I was the second person to arrive, and for a while it seemed like not many people would come. But then a lot of people started to arrive. All my neighbours were there, as well as a local doctor and teacher. The restaurant owner spoke first. He said that we needed to be prepared to fight, to take back France from the aristocratic classes who had been stealing money from France’s poor for years and years. He said that in a few months, the people were going to rise up and we needed to be ready. A few people were scared, but most were very excited. People were very excited to hear him speak. We planned to meet again soon, but the next day, the restaurant owner disappeared. The restaurant closed, and we didn’t know where he had gone. People became scared, and we decided not to meet again for a few weeks. But then one day, the restaurant owner returned to the village and asked us all to come to his restaurant later that night.

I wouldn’t want the men to know I’ve got the papers, so I would hide them and I would carry on as normal until the men left the village. Then I would show them to someone who could help me understand what they meant and I would ask for their advice. If there was a treasure map, I’d want to look for the treasure when it was safe.

Students’ own answers. Possible answers: 1 There are a lot of strong images associated with pirates that make them popular subjects for books and films. For example, the pirate ship, the skull and crossbones flag, the clothes they wear, the weapons they use, the treasure and gold that they rob. 2 I think that a lot of people have a romantic view of pirates. The lifestyle of a pirate – living at sea, digging for treasure, and even the risk of being caught – seems romantic. Books such as Treasure Island and films such as Pirates of the Caribbean have helped to create that image. People probably don’t think very much about the victims of pirate attacks. 3 Pirates today usually come from poor countries such as those in East Africa, where the governments are weak and corrupt. It is very easy for people to become pirates. Once they have bought guns, it doesn’t cost them much money to get a boat to attack a ship. Modern pirates can get a lot of money from companies who want their ships back. If you don’t think you are going to be caught and you are poor, it might seem a good idea to become a pirate as you can get rich quickly.

from a rich old woman who lives in our village. I told him not to, but he didn’t listen. After I found out that she had been robbed, and attacked, I knew it was Harry, and I told the police. Harry knows it was me and he wants revenge. I have decided to rent a small house in the middle of the forest. It is very cheap because there’s no electricity, and life is very boring, but I don’t care. One day, I went to a local village to try and find some food. I picked up a newspaper and saw a photo of Harry on the front. He had committed another violent robbery and he is back in prison! He’ll be there for 20 years this time. I feel safe enough to go back to my home.

I think they are exciting – there’s always a lot going on. I like the suspense when you think the spy is going to be caught. The cars and the technology are usually interesting and often the spies have some great modern gadgets to help them catch the villain. 2 He used his experiences as a soldier, working for the British government in different countries and working as a journalist in France. 3 Scudder has discovered a plot to assassinate the Greek Prime Minister on 15th June. He has a plan to stop the assassination and for his plan to work he has faked his own death, so he asks Hannay if he can stay with him so the assassins think he is dead.

There was also no reason for him to lie./No, I don’t believe Scudder’s story is true. How did he get the information about the plot to kill the Prime Minister? I don’t think if you had this sort of information you would tell your neighbour. There is something we don’t know about Scudder and he is probably a spy. 2 He probably told Hannay because he doesn’t think the police would believe him, he also probably doesn’t trust the police. He might know that Hannay worked with British intelligence in Africa and he thinks that he’s the best person to help him. 3 If I were Hannay and I found Scudder’s body, I would call the police. I’d tell them what Scudder had told me and that he thought his life was in danger and I would say that now I am worried that my life is in danger, too./If I were Hannay and I found Scudder’s body, I would do exactly what Hannay did. I would disappear for a time and I wouldn’t trust the police. I would want to find more evidence before I spoke to someone in the government or intelligence.

Students’ own answers. Possible answers: 1 Yes, I think it is a typical spy story: there is a plot to kill a head of a country and Hannay has to stop it. It involves world and military leaders and lots of people will be hurt if the villains aren’t caught. We don’t know who his enemy is and the villains follow Hannay and catch him, but he escapes and tries to stop the plot. 2 I think the life of a real spy is probably difficult. They can’t talk about their job to their family and friends and they can’t trust people. It’s a dangerous job and you don’t always get free time every week to see your family and to do your hobbies in the evening and at weekends. It is probably exciting, but it is also very dangerous and stressful. You never know what will happen next. 3 Yes, I would like to be a spy. I think it would be an interesting and exciting job and I would go to lots of places and meet different people. I also like a challenge and I think it would be a challenging job and every day wouldn’t be the same./ No, I wouldn’t like to be a spy. I want a job where I can work regular hours and I can go home in the evenings and I am free at the weekends. I don’t want a job that is dangerous or where I may need to travel a lot.

Students’ own answers: Possible answer: Richard Hannay lives in London. He likes adventure, but since he returned to London he has been bored. One evening, Franklin P. Scudder knocks on his door. Hannay doesn’t know him, but he listens to his story. Scudder has discovered a plot to kill the Greek Prime Minister. He wants Hannay to help him. He is frightened that the men behind the plot want to kill him so he has faked his own death. He asks Hannay if he can stay with him. Hannay agrees, but a few days later he finds Scudder dead when he comes home in the evening. Scudder is lying in the study and he has got a knife in his heart. Hannay is frightened the police will arrest him for the murder so he goes to Scotland. He thinks he will be safe there. While he’s there he can read Scudder’s notebooks, which are written in code, and find out who the murderers are. Hannay soon finds out that the murderers are following him. The men chase Hannay and catch him. Luckily, he escapes and travels back to London where he talks to Sir Walter Bullivant. Sir Walter works in the Foreign Office and when the Greek Prime Minister is assassinated he calls a meeting of the French and British military leaders. Hannay realises that one of the men at the meeting is a spy. The man and his colleagues must be stopped before they go to Europe.

As a result he’s lonely and dangerous. Victor Frankenstein, a Swiss scientist, made the monster.

Students’ own answers. Possible answers: 1 Yes, I think cloning is a good thing, and we could find a solution to a lot of the world’s problems by cloning healthy animals and plants. It means that farmers would be able to produce more food which is important for a growing world population. It could mean the end of famine and world poverty. 2 The advantages are that we could create more plants and animals which would help those species that are in danger of extinction. We could also use animals and plants with healthy genes to produce new plants and animals. The disadvantages are that there are sometimes unexpected problems and we don’t know what the final results of bio-engineering will be. For example, genetically modified plants might pollinate natural plants and we don’t know what this will cause. Language for life B1+ Teacher's Book answer keys

Ex.7
Students’ own answers. Possible answer: Dear Victor, Thank you for your letter. You have a terrible problem and I can understand why you are worried. I think you were wrong to make the first monster. You didn’t know what you were doing and now you have created something you can’t control, but you can’t solve that problem by making the monster a wife. To start with, you can’t be sure the two monsters will be happy together. What if they were both unhappy? What would happen then? Would they both be angry with you and attack your family? I don’t believe they would go and live in the mountains as your creature promised you. They won’t be able to look after themselves, so they will go into a town or village and they will probably attack the people for food. I know you think the monster will be angry if you don’t make him a companion and he will attack you and your family, but I think there is more chance of stopping one monster, not two. If I were you, I would go to the police. I can understand why you haven’t done this, but I think it is the only solution. They probably won’t believe you at first, but I don’t think you can catch the monster by yourself, and you shouldn’t try to – it’s too dangerous and he’s bigger and stronger than you. Your friend Marco

Also the play is a comedy and so it has to have a happy ending. 2 No, people shouldn’t interfere in other people’s problems. It’s none of your business. The people with the problem need to find a solution themselves. Sometimes people try to help, but they just make the situation worse. 3 I think you should know someone for at least two years before you get married. After that time you should know each other well and be certain that you have made the right decision. By that time you should know the positive and negative things about the person’s character and their good and bad habits.

Students’ own answers. Possible answer: I have two friends, Marco and Sylvia. They met a year ago when they were working in the same café. Sylvia was a part-time waitress and Marco worked in the kitchen. They live in the same area so they started walking home together after work. After a while they realised they were in love. Last month Marco asked Sylvia to marry him. Sylvia was really happy, but when she told her parents she was getting married, they were really upset. They told Sylvia that they are worried because they don’t think Marco has a good job and he isn’t very ambitious. Sylvia is at university. She’s good at languages and she could get a good job and travel. Sylvia’s parents think Marco will stop her from having an interesting life and that she’ll get bored with him in a few years. Sylvia’s father told her that he won’t go to the wedding and he won’t pay for it. Marco says he doesn’t care, but I think Sylvia is worried. I think they should wait before they get married. Sylvia should get a job first and she should be sure she knows what she wants to do in life. If their relationship lasts then Sylvia’s parents will see they were wrong and they might change their minds.

He’d waited and waited, and then decided to take a taxi. Thankfully, my father arrived a little later. Afterwards, I took Uncle Jim into town to see the Christmas decorations.

Students’ own answers. Possible answer: Super skates People have been using roller skates for over a hundred years. The original roller skates had four small wheels and skaters wore them over their shoes. Roller skates are great fun. People use them to move around more quickly than walking. They’re good for exercise, and people can dance and race in them. No one knows who came up with the idea for roller skates, but there are records of people wearing skates on stage in the 18th century. Children often get roller skates as presents, but anyone can skate and the first skating rinks were popular with teens and young adults. Roller skating became a huge craze in the 1970s. Disco music had captured the world’s imagination and the roller disco craze took off. At its peak, nightclubs had roller disco nights and roller skates were the must-have exercise equipment. Celebrities used to model them. You can still buy roller skates, but they became less popular in the 1990s, thanks to the introduction of new ‘in-line’ skates. The new skates became a hit because they are easier to turn and you can go faster.

Students’ own answers. Possible answer: ‘All students should study Politics’ At elections, people have to decide which politicians should run the country. However, a lot of people don’t know much about politics. We carried out a questionnaire on students’ attitudes in our class. We asked them to respond to the statement: ‘All students should study Politics’. We also asked them to give reasons for their answers. Results We found that approximately a quarter (28%) strongly agreed with the statement. The main reason they gave was that we need to know how politics works so we can decide which politician to vote for. Just over half (53%) agreed, but not strongly. The main reason one or two people gave was that we should know how everything works in our country. Surprisingly, only 11% of the respondents strongly disagreed and the other 8% disagreed but not strongly. The reason a lot of this group gave was that they weren’t interested in politics. Some also felt other subjects were more important. Our results allow us to conclude that most young people agree that all students should study Politics, because they think it is really important for our future lives.

Students’ own answers. Possible answer: Last Saturday, I went to the New Notes music shop because I wanted to buy some new guitar music. I started learning the guitar a year ago and I had played all the music in my old book. I first saw New Notes about two months ago, but I hadn’t been there before. It has an outstanding range of music for all types of instrument and a large number of guitars for a small shop. Some of the guitars were reasonable, but others were really expensive and I didn’t find any real bargains. One drawback is that it closes at 5 p.m. Monday to Friday and at 1 p.m. on Saturdays, so you have to plan your visit. The staff at the shop have an impressive knowledge and they are really welcoming when you arrive. I think they are all musicians and they can suggest instruments or books for your level. The shop will appeal to all musicians, but particularly people who play the guitar. I went there to buy one book of guitar music, but I bought five! I totally recommend visiting it if you can.

Students’ own answers. Possible answer: Sorry you’re having a tough time. I can understand that you are upset that your parents don’t want you to take a year off. You are probably tired after all your exams, and it’s really difficult when parents see things differently. But have you considered that your parents might be worried about your future? Going on about it and getting angry won’t help. Believe me. I’ve been there. When I took a gap year three years ago, my parents were against it at first. But I stayed chilled and in the end, they were fine about it. Anyway, whatever you do, listen to your parents and talk to them about their worries. You mustn’t make it sound like you aren’t listening. If I were you, I’d talk to your parents calmly when you are all in a good mood. It may be the last thing you want to do, but it works. Hang in there. Your parents want the best for you, so if you have a good reason to take a year off, I’m sure they’ll listen. Hope everything goes well!

Writing guide: opinion essay Task
Students’ own answers. Possible answer: I agree that antibiotics were the most important medical discovery of the 20th century. Medicine has changed dramatically as a result of their development, and we now live in a much healthier world. In the first place, before the discovery of antibiotics, large numbers of people died each year from common diseases such as pneumonia. This rarely happens today, so people live longer and have better health. Secondly, people don’t usually die from minor injuries nowadays. Before antibiotics, people often died or lost arms and legs because of accidents, since bacteria often enters the body through cuts. This was important in the Second World War, when large numbers of people suffered injuries but were able to recover. Finally, as people can recover completely from sickness and injuries today, it means that people can return to work. This is important because people can stay active for longer and this is better for society in general. To summarise, thanks to antibiotics, we are much healthier, more active and happier. Therefore, I’m convinced that antibiotics are the most important medical discovery of the 20th century.

Students’ own answers. Possible answer: To: [email protected] Subject: Volunteer Zoo Assistant Dear Mr Jones, I am writing to apply for the position of Volunteer Zoo Assistant at Bridgeton Zoo, as advertised on your website. This position really interests me because I would like to be a vet in the future, and I am keen to work at a zoo and get some more experience with animals. As you will see from my attached CV, I regularly look after animals and I help out at the local riding school, where I have lessons. I would be able to help with activities such as feeding the animals and cleaning their cages. I’ve also just completed a first aid course. I consider myself to be hard working and enjoy working with other people as well as animals. For example, last summer, I was part of a team that cleaned the local park and made it attractive to local wildlife. I would be happy to have a phone interview at any time in the evening. I will be available for work every weekend after Christmas. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Andrea Rossi
Students’ own answers. Possible answer: Proposal for the conversion of the old cinema into flats and shops Summary We propose converting the old cinema into flats with shops below. We believe that this could benefit both young people and families who live in the area. Current situation At the moment, not many people live in the centre of town, but most people work there. Consequently, the town centre isn’t used much in the evenings. There is very little housing in the city centre. As a result, people live outside the city centre at the moment and they have to travel a long distance into town. Meanwhile, the cinema has been empty for two years. Proposed action The old cinema is an ideal location for flats and shops. As the front of the building is attractive, we would like it to be kept. The inside could be redesigned so that more light can come into the building. The area at the back could also be used as shops, workshops or a community centre. Advantages Our proposal could lead to the regeneration of a neglected part of town. This would benefit the whole community.

Students’ own answers. Possible answer: We propose building a new primary school. We believe this could benefit local families with young children. One of the biggest problems is that the current primary school is too small. The current school could be used as a community centre for old people. It could also provide more school places to educate local children.

Students’ own answers. Possible answer: In the world outside prisons, most people have access to Wi-Fi or an Internet connection on their computers. But prisoners are often not allowed to use the Internet. Does this help prisoners to change or does it isolate them more from the community? I believe there are two main arguments for Wi-Fi and computers in prisons. The first one is that prisoners can use the Internet for education and training. They can do online courses to improve their skills. Furthermore, contact with family by emails and face-to-face messaging can stop younger prisoners from mixing with more experienced criminals and encourage them to change their lives. On the other hand, some people think that criminals could use the Internet to contact criminals outside prison and they will be able to research ways of committing more crimes. Taking both sides of the argument into consideration, I think that prisoners should have controlled access to Wi-Fi in prison. All in all, I’m in favour of people being able to learn by using the Internet and to stay in contact with their families.
