Amy: unhappy, helpful, calm,
caring, selfish (only thinking

Find evidence in the text.

Imagine you are Laurie,
and write your diary entry
for the day of the incident
in the extract. Write: where
you were, who with, what you
were doing, what happened,
how you felt. Read your
entry to the class.
As Laurie turned the corner, he shouted back.
“Keep near the shore. It’s not safe in the
middle.” Jo heard, but Amy was struggling to
her feet and didn’t hear a word. Jo looked over
her shoulder and a voice in her head said …
“Whether she heard or not, she can take care
of herself.”
Laurie skated round the corner, and Jo was just
about to follow him. Amy was far behind and
going towards the smoother ice in the middle
of the river. For a minute Jo stood still with a strange feeling in her
heart. She decided to go on, but something stopped her and turned
her round. She was just in time to see Amy throw up her hands and
go down, with a sudden crash of ice. There was a splash of water,
and a cry that made Jo’s heart stand still with fear. She tried to call
Laurie, but she had no voice. She tried to go forward, but she felt she
had no strength in her feet. For a second, she stood still and was
staring with a scared face at the little blue hood above the black water.
Something went past her quickly, and Laurie’s voice cried out …
“Bring a rail. Quick, quick!”
She didn’t know how she did it, but for the next few minutes she
worked with Laurie, who was lying flat on the ice. He held Amy up
with his arm and a hockey stick until Jo got a rail from the fence. Laurie
and Jo got the child out. Amy was frightened but not really hurt.
“Now then, we must walk her home as fast as we can. Cover her with
our things, while I take off my skates,” said Laurie. He put his coat
around Amy as he was pulling hard at his laces.
Amy was shivering, dripping wet, and crying, as they took her home.
After such an exciting time, she fell asleep, covered in blankets in
front of a hot fire.
1 After she heard Laurie
’s advice, Jo decided
A to repeat it to Amy.
C Amy didn’t need help.

Body language is the way people reveal their thoughts and emotions
simply by moving their body in certain ways. More often than not, they
don’t even realise they are doing it. It could be the gestures a person
makes with their hands, the way they move their head or even how they
use their eyes or mouth. In other words, people can give unspoken
signals which communicate meaning just as much as words do.
Psychologist Dr Kevin Lacey stresses the importance of body
language. “In order to make a good impression, just saying the right
thing isn’t enough,” he says. “How we say it, and the body language
we use, can be just as important.”
So what does Dr Lacey suggest we do to improve the sort of message our body
language is sending? “Firstly, when you sit opposite someone, don’t cross your arms or
legs,” he advises, “and if you are wearing a jacket, open it. Otherwise, your position
looks ‘closed’ and people may easily think you have something to hide. An open
posture, on the other hand, makes people think that you are being honest. If you want
to show you are interested in what someone is saying, you should lean forward with
your head slightly to one side. This suggests that you are paying attention to them.
Making direct eye contact is usually a good idea too, although in some cultures, such as
in some parts of Asia, it can be a sign of disrespect.”
But it’s not just a question of giving out the right signals ourselves. It can also be very useful to understand someone
else’s body language. If, for example, you want to know whether someone is telling the truth or not, there are
a number of simple signs to look out for. “If someone’s eyes keep moving quickly around the room and they keep on
touching their face,” Dr Lacey explains, “there is a good chance the person is not being completely honest.”
So the next time you meet someone new, why not follow Dr Lacey’s advice? Hopefully, body language will help you
to trust and be trusted!

C feelings.
D understanding.
4 Looking someone straight in the eyes

C an important way of communicating.
D less important than speech.
5 A sign that someone is lying is when they
A keep walking round the room.

C keep looking at your face.
D try to leave the room quickly.

List prywatny
List prywatny piszemy do osoby, którą dobrze
znamy. Zazwyczaj rozpoczyna się go od słowa Dear
i imienia adresata. W pierwszym akapicie
pozdrawiamy adresata (np. Hi! How are you?)
i podajemy powód napisania listu. W kolejnych
akapitach rozwijamy list, a w ostatnim go kończymy,
żegnamy się i podpisujemy (np. Have to go now. Yours,
Rebecca).
W liście prywatnym używamy stylu nieoficjalnego:
ñ słownictwa stosowanego w życiu codziennym.
(I’m having a great time.)
ñ potocznych wyrażeń/idiomów.
(Drop me a line.)
ñ krótkich spójników. (so, and itd.)
ñ ściągniętych form czasowników.
(I can’t, I’ll be ...)
PRZYDATNE ZWROTY

studiować prawo. Napisz list do swojego przyjaciela/
przyjaciółki z Anglii (120–150 słów). Napisz:

Hope you’re OK. I wanted to drop you a line to
tell you my news.
I’m in Rome studying law at university. I’m
staying on the campus. My room’s very nice.
Lessons here are very interesting. I have classes
every morning then I spend some afternoons in
the library. I’ve made some new friends here.
Rosa and Maria are from Spain and are studying
medicine. Petra’s from Poland and she’s studying
law. We are in the uni football club. They’re all
very nice to me and showed me around when I
first arrived here.
Rome is so different from my hometown. It’s full
of life. There are huge department stores and the
streets are crowded. People are very friendly but I
do miss my town. Still, I’m sure I’ll get used to

you soon.

Wiadomość
Wiadomość to krótki tekst, którego celem jest
udzielenie adresatowi informacji, poproszenie go
o przysługę, zaplanowanie spotkania itd.
Wiadomość cechuje udzielenie wszystkich istotnych
informacji bez użycia zbędnych słów. Pisząc wiadomość, przeważnie pomijamy takie kategorie słów jak
zaimki osobowe (I, you, itd.), przedimki (a/an,
the), czasowniki posiłkowe (am, have, itd.) oraz
zwroty powitalne i pożegnalne (Dear, Yours, itd.).
Można natomiast używać trybu rozkazującego,
spójników typowych dla stylu nieformalnego,
imiesłowów i ściągniętych form czasowników, na
ogół nieużywanych w języku pisanym. Wiadomość
zazwyczaj nie jest podzielona na akapity.
Musisz wyjść. Napisz wiadomość adresowaną
do Twojej współlokatorki z Walii, w której:
ñ
poinformujesz, że czekałeś/łaś na przyjście kolegi, który
jednak się spóźni – napisz, dlaczego.
ñ
poprosisz o odebranie prania z pralni i podasz powód.
ñ
wyjaśnisz, gdzie poszedłeś/poszłaś i kiedy wrócisz.
ñ
poinformujesz współlokatorkę, gdzie jest jedzenie
i że w razie potrzeby może do Ciebie zadzwonić.
