Read the following text about Simon.

When my parents took me out of school and told me they
 were

going to teach me at home I thought they were mad.
 I mean, all my
friends were there. But that was a year ago.
 I love homeschooling
now. Other kids have to get up early
 and go to school – sometimes
it takes them over an hour
 just to get there! But me, I don’t have to
travel to school.
 I can stay in bed! All I have to do is go
downstairs! And
 there’s no stupid uniform to wear, either. And
better food
 for lunch! I think I enjoy studying more because my
mum
 knows what I like and how I learn best. My grades
are
 better, anyway, so something must be working. When other
kids ask me “What school do you go to?” and I say “I don’t go to
school”, they think I am sad. Some think my parents must be
religious nuts. But they are not. Thousands of children are taught at
home in this country. I think I am really lucky, and I know my
parents want the best for me.

Read the following text about Maddie’s first day at school.
Oh yes, I remember my first day at school - Infant school, that is. I
remember feeling very proud when my mother walked with me
through the main gate. There was so much noise and so many
children that I got scared. My mum took me to see the teacher, Mrs.
Gossage. I remember feeling very nervous watching my mother
leaving, but Mrs. Gossage looked after me and she sat me down with
the other pupils in a big circle. Soon we started playing games so I
got very excited. After lunch I met Emily, who later became my best
friend. She was in another class, but all the new students were
brought together to meet each other. I was so happy to have a friend.
In the afternoon we went
swimming, but I couldn’t so I started crying. Mrs. Gossage had to
phone my mother who came to collect me. We had an ice cream and
then I felt calm again. But what a day! I’ll never forget it!

Read the following text carefully.

Mrs. Smith is going shopping with her son. They are looking for a
present for Mr. Smith's birth- day. Mrs. Smith wants to buy him a
new camera and Tom wants to buy him a jumper.
They drive to the department store on the high street of the small
town they live in. Mrs. Smith us- es the escalator to go to the
Electrical Department on the third floor and Tom takes the stairs up
to the Men's Clothing Department on the first floor.
When she gets to the Electrical Department she finds that cameras
are sold in the Photography Department on the ground floor. She
takes the elevator down and asks the sales assistant there for some
help. She doesn't know much about cameras and needs some advice.
He recommends an auto- matic camera but it is too expensive, so
she thanks the assistant and decides to shop around first.
Meanwhile, Tom is looking at the jumpers. He only has £10 to
spend so he can't afford most of them. He sees his mother and they
decide to go to the smaller shops round the corner.
