So he started to use stencils, which was much quicker. After that Banksy’s graffiti appeared on lots of buildings in Bristol and London. His work soon became well known and he began to take greater and greater risks. First he climbed in with the penguins at London Zoo and painted ‘We’re bored with fish’ on the wall in large letters. Next he went to Bristol Zoo and painted a message on the elephants’ wall. It began, ‘I want out. This place is too cold ...’. Then in 2004 he walked into the Louvre, in Paris, and put his painting of the Mona Lisa next to the famous painting by Leonardo da Vinci. It was quickly removed. After the Louvre, Banksy put his primitive cave painting in the British Museum in London. While it was hanging on the wall in the museum, hundreds of people stopped to look at the painting and it stayed there for three days. Finally the staff at the museum discovered it and took it down, but it’s now in the British Museum’s permanent collection. Another of Banksy’s ideas was to print his own money. He made a million pounds’ worth of £10 notes. Instead of ‘Bank of England’ the notes said ‘Banksy of England’, and he replaced the Queen’s head with the head of Princess Diana. Hundreds of these bank notes were thrown into the crowd at a music festival. Some people actually used the money to buy things and others later sold their £10 notes on eBay for £200 each. Banksy is now internationally famous and his graffiti can be found in countries all over the world. You can also buy Banksy mugs, T-shirts, posters and postcards. In 2010 there was a film about Banksy called Exit Through the Gift Shop, and in the same year he created the opening and closing sequence in an episode of The Simpsons. Banksy isn’t the artist’s real name and, like many graffiti artists, he has always tried to keep his identity a secret. And what does he hate most? CCTV cameras, of course!

HeLP wiTH LiSTeNiNG Linking: review (2) This Help with Listening section reviews all the types of linking that students have met in face2face Pre-intermediate. 4
Connecting words (2): first, next, then, etc. 6
a Students look at the example sentence. Elicit the different types of linking that they can fi nd. Point out the consonant-vowel links, when one word ends in a consonant sound and the next begins with a vowel sound (crime of, etc.). Also highlight the extra linking sounds /j/, /w/ and /r/ that we use when one word ends in a vowel sound and the next also begins with a vowel sound (graffiti/j/on, go/w/in, more /r/and).
a–b Check students understand the phrase the order of events (the order things happen). Students do the exercise on their own, then check in Vocabulary 12.3 SB p151. Check answers with the class. a 1 when, while 2 first, next, then, after, after that, finally Point out that we usually use while with continuous verb forms: While it was hanging on the wall ... , hundreds of people stopped ... . Also highlight that after can be followed by a noun or ‘subject + verb’: After the Louvre, Banksy put his primitive cave painting in the British Museum. He became popular after he started using stencils. Contrast after with after that, which is always followed by ‘subject + verb’: After that Banksy’s graffiti appeared … .

b Students look at Audio Script cD3 43 , SB p166. Play the recording again. Students read, listen and notice the linking.
Reading and Speaking 5
a Focus students on pictures A–D and elicit who the graffiti is by (Banksy). Students work in pairs and discuss whether they like Banksy’s work or not. Ask students to give reasons for their opinions. b Focus students on the words in the box. Students work on their own or in pairs and try to match each thing to pictures A, D, E, F, G. Teach the words/ phrases as necessary when you check answers with the class. Note that the aim is to highlight which words you need to pre-teach to help students understand the text and exercises that follow. The vocabulary is not in the Language Summaries in the Student’s Book. spray paint G; a CCTV camera D; a primitive cave painting A; a penguin E; a stencil F c Students read the article about Banksy and put his pictures A–C in the order they appear in the article. Point out the shopping trolley in the primitive cave painting so students don’t miss it. Students check answers in pairs. Check answers with the class. 1B (the Mona Lisa) 2A (the primitive cave painting) 3C (the Princess Diana £10 note)
d Students read the article again and do the exercise on their own. e Students compare answers in pairs. Ask students to tell the class what they think is the most interesting thing about Banksy. Suggested answers: 1 Because they were quicker. 2 London Zoo: We’re bored with fish. Bristol Zoo: I want out. This place is too cold ... 3 He put it next to the real Mona Lisa in the Louvre, but it was quickly removed. 4 Three days. 5 A million pounds’ worth/100,000. 6 £200 each. 7 Because he has always tried to keep his identity a secret.

Students work in groups and discuss the questions. Ask students to share interesting answers with the class. Finally, fi nd out if students’ attitudes to graffiti have changed in the course of the lesson and if so, why. extra idea ●
Students work in pairs. Give students paper and ask them to draw or write some graffiti. Make sure students don’t write anything too politically or socially sensitive. Students then work in groups and show other students their graffiti. Tell them to explain why they drew or wrote it. When they have finished, collect in their work and put it on the wall. Ask students to tell the class which piece they liked the most and why. Further practice
