Reading A Q l . 5 Read t h e m a g a z i n e article. Are 1-9 a d v a n t a g e s (A) or d i s a d v a n t a g e s (D)?

Do you want to work or study from home? Now adays, with the Internet you don't have to go out anymore! You can work or study from the comfort of your own home, but you need to consider the pros and cons carefully before starting. O

There aren't so many distractions and you don't have to stop to speak to people.

You don't have to work at a particular time, you can start and finish when you want to.

You need space at home and often expensive equipment.

You can get help from your family or the people you live with.

You don't have to spend money on clothes, you can work in your pajamas if you want!

You can save a lot of money on travel costs.

You need to separate your home and work—it can be hard to do this.

It can be lonely without classmates or work colleagues.

You need to motivate yourself—it's easy to spend the day doing other things.

B In groups, decide if it's b e t t e r to w o r k / s t u d y f r o m h o m e or to go to a s c h o o l / office. I think it's better to study from home, because you can save a lot of money.

But you don't have colleagues to talk to. I don't have to get up early because my job starts at 10 a.m., but I need to work very fast.

Going to and will are the most common future forms and are both used to talk about future plans and predictions.

I'm worried that his girlfriend will leave him and she'll take the child and I won't see t h e m again. How can I make my son spend more time with his family? - Worried Grandma C Dear Lori, My father-in-law lives next door to us. He comes in and out of our house and borrows things when we are not here. We have no privacy. I always fight with my husband about my father-in-law. My husband won't talk to his father about this problem. How can I make him understand that this is not his house? - Unhappy Wife

D Dear Lori, I can't find a girlfriend. I am very fussy and I have a long list of things that I want. No one is good enough for me. What can I do? Where can I find a partner? - Lonely Boy LORI'S REPLIES 1. Q j You shouldn't try to find a girlfriend by using a checklist. You should date different people and get to know them. At the moment you are rejecting girls before you know anything about them. 2. P j You can't force your son to spend more time with his family. He has to decide that for himself. You should continue to visit and support his girlfriend and your grandchild. That way, if your son and his girlfriend decide to separate you will still see your grandchild. 3. [ j You should try to find a career that will give you the opportunity to travel. For example, if you are a teacher of English, you can live in other places. You shouldn't leave university right now, but you should choose a profession that is right for you and your independent spirit.

I was waiting to board my plane to Japan from Sydney when they announced the earthquake and that Narita airport was closed. So we were stuck at the airport. The next morning, we left for Japan. It was terrible. Kumiko,

When the earthquake hit, I was chatting with my colleague. First, I thought I was feeling dizzy and asked my colleague: "Is it shaking, or is it just me?" "Yes, it's shaking," he answered. Jiro, Japanese

I was in a cafe in Tokyo, for a casual meeting with my boss. Cars and taxis were driving along the street, and when the earthquake hit they started to move up and down like waves on the sea.

I was playing Starcraft 2 on my laptop at home. My team was winning. Then the quake started. I wrote: "We are having an earthquake here and it's huge. I think this is the big one.

When the earthquake hit, I was chatting with my colleague. First, I thought I was feeling dizzy and asked my colleague: "Is it shaking, or is it just me?" "Yes, it's shaking," he answered. Jiro,

I was in a cafe in Tokyo, for a casual meeting with my boss. Cars and taxis were driving along the street, and when the earthquake hit they started to move up and down like waves on the sea. Hiroki,

Be honest about your budget. If you can only spend $60 a night for accommodation, say it before you go. Also, plan how you intend to share all the other expenses: transportation, food and entertainment. So, think about this: Is it OK for you to travel with someone who has more money than you? Would you mind paying a bit extra to help a friend who has less? Sometimes you'll need to make quick decisions on the road and maybe disagree on what you want to do. If your personalities and interests are different, you'll have to plan a bit and be flexible with each other. If one of you is a heavy smoker and the other hates smoke, it's important to find a solution that satisfies both sides. So, consider this: Can you make concessions when you travel with others? Would you ever travel with someone who has a few irritating habits? Use each other after a plural subject for reciprocal feelings or actions. >â&#x20AC;˘ They are getting tired of each other.

Spending too much time with each other can be very irritating. Plan to take some breaks from each other from time to time, especially on a longer trip. Then you can meet for dinner and share fun stories. So, before traveling ask yourselves: Are you comfortable spending the entire day with a friend when you travel? Do you need to spend some time alone when traveling? MMM

> We have to help each other.

There are very few grammatical differences between U.S. and UK English. Here's one of them. Americans often use the Past Simple in cases where the Present Perfect is required in the UK. For example, in the U.S. it's more common to use the Past Simple with words like: already, just and recently. However, even in American English, yet is more common with the Present Perfect.

Comprehending an Anecdote

Weird Sophie The only pec I've ever had was a neurotic cat named Sophie. W h e n Sophie was still a k i t t e n , she accidentally drank half a bottle of detergent. M o m and I were desperate, of course, so we took her t o the vet immediately. Sophie didn't die, but she became very strange after that, like the feline equivalent of Lady Gaga. For a long time, I was reluctant to let Sophie leave the house,

I knew I couldn't

(1)

keep her inside forever. One day, when she was an adult, I finally decided that it was t ime for her to be brave and explore the outside world,

,2) I opened

the front door. Sophie took a few steps and then completely lost her mind. She had never felt grass,

(3)

she didn't know what t o do. She started to j u m p up and

d o w n like crazy and w o u l d n ' t stop. Sophie only ran back t o the house when she heard Toby's bark. Toby was only a small, f o u r - m o n t h old p u p p y

{4)

Sophie

was terrified of him. Yes, my cat was afraid of a baby Poodle. Sophie used to sleep in the sink f r o m t ime to t ime

(5) ,

for some mysterious

reason, she never noticed when the water was running. One night, I was getting ready t o go to bed and w e n t t o the other r o o m t o answer the phone. W h e n I came back a few minutes later, Sophie was submerged in the sink, hypnotized. Cats are supposed to be afraid of water, right? N o t Sophie. She also loved t o sleep in the washing machine, especially if there were dirty towels inside. One day, M o m didn't know she was there,

(6)

she almost

closed the door and turned on the machine. That was Sophie's second neardeath experience. As t ime progressed, Sophie started to believe that she was a guard dog. She used t o follow strangers around the house and m a k e w e i r d noises. Trouble is, she couldn't always differentiate between strangers and her owner

(7)

she used

t o b i t e and scratch everyone—including myself. Sophie died at the age of 21. Can you believe it? I wonder h o w she's doing in Cat Heaven. She was a weird, weird cat, she was the only true friend I had during my entire adolescence.

A good vacation is a break from real life, but sometimes they can be extremely stressful. Here are some hints to help keep y o u cool when traveling: 1. Reducing stress starts before you leave home. Try to book direct flights so that you can escape those awful connections. By doing that, you can avoid long layovers, missed connections or the worst problem: canceled flights. 2. Traveling can be stressful on any day, but Mondays and Fridays are a nightmare, especially between 7-9 a.m. and 4-7 p.m. Friday is actually my favorite day of the week. So do yourself a favor and don't trave then. Period. 3. Bad things are going to happen when you travel, so don't try to contra everything. If you're angry, try to g e t r i d of your anger in a calm way Drink a cup of tea, practice deep breathing or, if you can, try to find some humor in the situation. 4. Give yourself p l e n t y of time for things right from the start: taking a c a b to the airport, checking in at the airport, boarding your flight, renting a car, and finally checking in at your hotel. Remember you can book online. Remember: the less you rush, the less stressful your vacation will be.

It's a really big deal, the most important document you'll get from your professor." George Smith "Find some time to study every day. 'A little and often' is best. It doesn't have to be a lot, or even at the same time every day, but you can't leave it until half an hour before class!" Muhammed Burton "Get a study buddy so if you miss a class, you can call them to find out what happened. You can help each other with homework too." Konstantina Spanos "If you know you have to write a paper, start working on it early. When you have a test, prepare for it in advance. You can't learn everything the night before an exam."

Are you worried about losing your best employees? Here are the best ways to keep them.

8 I

Take an interest in each person who works for you. If you show that you are really interested in the people who work with you, they usually respond better. People need to understand the connection between their work and how it affects other people in the company and in the world. Employees will stay if they see that what they do makes a difference.

Ask what people like about the job and ask what they need. If you ask people what they need to stay, they will tell you.

8 8

Give people tasks that are not too easy for them. Your best people will get bored if you don't challenge them.

Talk to your employees about their aspirations and about what skills they will need in their careers. If you are clear about what employees need to do to progress, this will encourage % them to stay.

Remember that people are always watching and evaluating you and what you do as the person in charge. Your employees will be I comfortable, honest and open if you are too.

Q 5 . U Read Akil's blog a n d c o m p l e t e t h e table. Do you a g r e e w i t h t h e s e g e n e r a l i z a t i o n s ? © o e

Akil's blog: Good communication—or not! I don't know about you, but in my country (I come from Bahrain) our family get together every weekend to have lunch either at my grandparents' house or in a restaurant. But lately I've noticed a bit of tension between us(1). For example, grandma can't understand why her grandkids have to have their phones next to them , all the time when we eat. Why don't people talk to each other? And why don't people call her 3i on the phone anymore? At the same time, my mom and dad don't understand why grandma doesn't want to use the laptop they 4 gave her to answer e-mails and look at photos. And... I don't get why my younger sister and cousins don't reply to text messages and e-mails. Why are they(6) so rude to their family, and yet they're talking to their friends all the time? Then I read this new survey about communication and technology across generations and it all seems to make a bit more sense now. It says that one of the biggest differences is in the way "millenials" (that's anybody under 25 like my little sister and cousins) see technology compared with other generations. For them , technology is totally normal, Generation Millenials

Age

Prefer to Communicate

under 25 by text message

part of their identity. They(9) prefer to communicate using social media like Facebook and Twitter. Taking away their phones is like cutting off their armslThat's why my sister won't put down her cell phone. Then there's "Gen X"—that's the generation from 35 to 55, like my mom and dad. For thern 10|, technology is good for practical things like shopping and banking online, that sort of thing. But they nl] don't use technology for socializing. For them, e-mail is the best way to communicate. And in between the millenials and Gen X comes "Gen Y,"who are between 25 and 35 (OK, I confess—that's me!), and we're big fans of texting. I don't want to call or instant message, I want to text—and I expect you to respond! Finally, of course, there are older people (like grandma!), who prefer to talk on the phone (the socalled "boomers"—people over 55), and then, older still, the "traditionalists" (everyone over 65), who prefer to meet in person. So... it doesn't surprise me that we misunderstand each other! Millenials are great multitaskers and get things done quickly online, but older generations wantthem l3) to focus moreon personal relationships. What do you ,4, think? Have you seen this in your family too? I'd love to hear your experiences.

No, I don't. I know lots of people over 60 who tweet and use Facebook. N

CHARITY CHALLENGE

Five crazy extreme sports!

A person goes t o the t o p of a rock or cliff and dives into the water and rocks b e l o w — h o w crazy is that? This is called cliff diving! It's similar t o surfing or skateboarding, but y o u d o it on snow, so it's snowboarding. For those w h o can't stand waiting for the g o o d weather t o go surfing again, this is a cool option. But be careful, it's extremely easy to fall! H o w about hang-gliding? You run off the edge of a cliff and hang f r o m a bar inside a kind of big bag and fly like that. If y o u feel like f l y i n g — w i t h o u t a plane—this may be for you! Or perhaps you prefer j u m p i n g off a bridge, building or m o u n t a i n attached t o a thick elastic band t h a t lets you go up and down. Can you imagine d o i n g this? A lot of people love bungee j u m p i n g ! Underwater hockey is a new sport. Divers w h o miss being in the water during the winter m o n t h s love it. W h e n the outside water is t o o cold for diving you just need a snorkel, a stick and a puck and you and your friends can go t o the local s w i m m i n g pool for a game!

Birthday

Dear all, It's my 30th birthday in April and I've decided to do something... different! So, I'm writing to see if any of you want to join me on my adventure. You all know how I adore driving, especially at high speeds. Well, for the first time ever I'm going to Las Vegas! No, not to drive around the casinos—I hate gambling! I've chosen Vegas because they have an awesome racetrack there. Check it out at www.letsgoracinq.com. So, who'd like to come with me?There's so much other stuff to do in Vegas too. If you'd prefer to catch a show, or stay at the hotel and just swim and relax, or go to the casinos, whatever, that's fine. If you prefer watching me drive to driving yourself, that's fine too. But I really hope you all agree to come!! Oh, and remember, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas! So, no matter how wild you get, nobody back home will know! © So, send me a message to let me know if you can make it. And don't forget to check out the website before you make your decision! © . : - * Laura

Blood was rushing t h r o u g h my head, and I couldn't stop smiling. M y legs were trembling. It was the day that 1 was going to j u m p f r o m the world's highest bungee! The feeling was surreal and, at the back of my mind, I kept w o n d e r i n g if it was really happening. I was interviewed before I j u m p e d and I tried to keep as cool as possible b u t I couldn't hide the nervousness because this is the world's highest bungee. They t o l d me t o step on the plank. Slowly m o v i n g t o the edge, I raised my hands and looked right. There was a signal for me t o have my picture taken. I looked like a total idiot in the picture. Then the crew said "Here we go!" and then it all happened so fast. One of t h e m started t o c o u n t down, "5-4-3..." I had t o stop t h e m because I wasn't ready. "Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, w u w u w u w u w a i t ! " I shouted. "First a t t e m p t FAILED," I heard someone say over the walkie-talkie. I had to make sure I didn't screw up the second one. There was no t u r n i n g back and another failed a t t e m p t w o u l d mean that I was a wuss. "5-4-3-2-1!" A n d so I jumped... or fell, or whatever you call it. I d i d my best t o stay calm, b u t I had t o scream. After about five seconds the fall still wasn't over, I had t o take a deep breath and I screamed again. I started laughing, I screamed again, and I laughedâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;yes, like a hyena. The j u m p was over and the crew below met me and removed my harness. M y knees were shaking and I could still feel the adrenaline and the rush of air on my face f r o m the descent. M y lips were burning because of the speed of falling. But I didn't care h o w I looked, because I d i d it! I j u m p e d from a height of 233 meters and fell at 200 kph! lYuss and to screw up are both very informal expressions. B

How often do you so to the movies? Great Movies I'm an avid movie fan. I watch certain movies again and again, download the soundtrack, read all the reviews and may even buy the poster on eBay. I even watch French and Spanish movies with the subtitles off sometimes But, a tip for you, here's one thing I've discovered: YOL can guess what a movie will be like from just one wore in the title. Yes, it's true. Words like "robot," "cyborg" or "karate" ten times out of ten indicate, well, that the movie will be terrible. It may make millions at the box office anc even have a sequel or t w o (How does Cyborgs from Hell II sound?), but it will never win an Oscar. Here are the top three words from my blacklist:

COP If you like adventure movies and detective stories, d: NOT rent or download movies with the word "cop" in the title. If you do, here's what you'll see: policemen dying an:: being reincarnated as dogs or maybe teaching three-yea r olds, like the cop played by Arnold Schwarzenegger a fe .• years ago. My favorite title, though, is Scanner Cop, where the main character can explode people with the power:~ his mind. H o w ' bout that?

FUTURE Here's my adviceto Hollywood: Ifyoumakeadocumenta about the future, it's OK to put the word "future" in the title, of course. I mean, Planet Earth: The Future d o e s r : sound half bad! But if you make a sci-fi, fantasy or disaste movie, never, ever use the word "future." Much b e t t e r : find words that are not connected to the plot. Forexamp Avatar is not about computer pictures just like Twei Monkeys, starring Bruce Willis, is not about monkeys.

MONSTER Do you like comedy movies? Looking for some innoce : fun? Then how about titles such as Frog Monste ; from Hell or Monster In the Closet. These are funny, r scary—I guarantee. But if you like real horror mov e full of mystery and suspense—you know, the k that will make you jump off your seat, promise yo. never watch anything that has the word "monster" it. Please. Except Monsters, Inc., originally relee: by Pixar in 2001, which even people like me feli love with!

Watching movies and TV with subtitles is a great way to learn. 1 Turn on the English subtitles to help you make sound / spelling connections. E.g., you hear "shoulda," you read "should have." 2 Turn off the subtitles to improve your listening skills.

T h i s is w h a t f u t u r i s t s Harry Reid (HR) a n d Penny D u f f (PD) h a v e t o say a b o u t t h e t o p t h r e e questions. HR: Probably. We've built robots t h a t can, for example, identify themselves when they look in a mirror or even mimic our emotions according to the quality of our voice, so, yes, I think machines w i l l be able to f e e l human emotions. PD: Well, probably not. Consciousness is an exclusive attribute of the human brain and we probably won't be able to teach robots how to f e e l unt il we know much more about our brain and how it functions.

, 3f

HR: Definitely. Scientists have actually created a computer program t h a t can decode brain activity and put it into words. So it's going to be relatively easy to capture thoughts and transmit them to another brain, I suspect. PD: Maybe. Synthetic telepathy seems like science fiction, I know, but I think it w i l l be possible to establish some f o r m o f rudimentary communication through electric signals, not words. HR: Possibly. As I've said on a number of occasions, I think computers w i l l probably be as intelligent as humans in 2 0 2 0 or so. I f t h a t happens, I ' m pretty sure they're going t o help us f i n d a way to travel through time. PD: Certainly. Time travel to the future is an essential characteristic of Einstein's theory of relativity, and this has been investigated many times by lots of scientists worldwide, so maybe there w i l l be some form of future time travel. But traveling back to the past is a whole different story. There's no evidence t h a t this is possible. So, who knows?

Review 1 * The plot is so unintelligent that it can be described in a sentence: Girl falls in love with boy, boy dies, girl gets depressed. Period. Think of all the Hollywood cliches you've ever heard. They're in this movie. But I bet it'll be a box office success in the U.S. and abroad.

Review 2 * * * * * This movie is truly spectacular. If you think a silent movie about an unsolved murder in 1870 is a recipe for disaster, think again. The main character (Inspector Reid) is played by George Clooney with such skill that, honestly, you don't miss hearing the man's voice. Trap is a classic example of images speaking louder than words, which perhaps explains why subtitles are used only five times in this movie.

Review 3 What can you expect from a movie starring Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger? Lots of violence and action scenes, right? Well, wrong. In Gone, BW and AS reconstruct the events leading to September 11 with such sensitivity, precision and attention to detail that you instantly forget they have ever made another movie. Their interviews with firefighters alone are worth the price of admission. Gone is a masterpiece of factual movie-making and it truly deserves to win an Oscar.

A wedding that Are you looking for a way to make your wedding more interesting and memorable? Last Saturday a crane lifted Helen Gomez anc James Brandon up into the air on a platform for their wedding ceremony. They got married up there, 160 feet (50 meters) in the air with twenty surprised, and slightly scared, friends and family members, who did not know what was going to happen. After they shared their marriage vows, Helen and James did a terrifying bungee jump from the platform. T h e company called Marriage in the Sky offers more and more exciting weddings like this every year. After the ceremony, the wedding party all go back down to earth, but then they all go back up again for the reception. At the reception, guests eat a meal in special chairs wearing safety belts so they are safe and cant fall. The idea of this kind of wedding is to make a day that really will be both entertaining and unforgettable. You're probably asking yourself, "is this safe?". The company operates in more than 15 countries in the world, including ones that have strict rules about safety, such as the USA, Canada and Australia. All these countries are satisfied that these weddings are safe. And... how much does something like this cost: About US$40,000.

Celebrity RIVALRY!

Even successful people are jealous of each other. In 2 0 0 0 , when Frankie Muniz was just 14 years old he got a huge opportunity as the star of a TV series called Malcolm in the Middle. The series was a big hit and Muniz w o n many prizes as the main actor in the show, including a Young Star Award as best young actor in a comedy TV series. At the same time, there was another young actor who was also trying to be a success in Hollywood. In 2 0 0 0 , Shia Labeouf was the same age as Muniz and the star of a Disney Channel TV series called Even

Stevens. He was also nominated for the Young Star Award that year, but he lost to Frankie Muniz. In 2003, Shia got a great opportunity when he was the star of a movie called Holes which got him more nominations for awards and plenty of new roles in Hollywood. Entertainment

Weekly called Shia

"the next Frankie Muniz." Shia was not happy w i t h this. He has been in competition w i t h Muniz since they were 12 years old to be the best young actor in Hollywood. Today, Shia Labeouf is one of the best known and highest paid young actors in Hollywood. Muniz, on the other hand, is not doing much acting. He is driving racing cars and playing music, but here's the strange thing: their rivalry continues, and Labeouf o f t e n makes comments about Muniz in interviews and on Twitter.

The Baby of the Family Nothing Special The Lonely Ones The Effect of Birth Order The Bossy Ones

Birth order and you I CH Your siblings: you love them, you hate them, you need them, you don't need them. Birth order, that is, whether you are the oldest, the youngest or in the middle in your family, can have an effect on your personality and your family dynamics. Are you similar to or completely different from your brothers and sisters? Birth order can help explain why According to Alfred Adler, an Austrian psychiatrist, birth order has a profound effect on how you see the world. Here are a few of the observations that Adler makes. • First born children are natural leaders—they are more responsible and mature and are more accustomed to adult company They are often more intelligent than their later born siblings and they can be aggressive, because they feel they should be in charge. They like being alone. • Middle children, on the other hand, are often the opposite of first-born children. They feel they don't have any particular role in their family so their friends are usually more important

• As for the youngest in the family they are often friendly and sociable. They like to b e with other people and are often charming. They like to be the center of attention. They are'not good at being alone and they get bored easily but they have a lot of self-confidence and are not afraid to do dangerous things. They are often more irresponsible, because they know that someone will always help them if they have any kind of problem. • What about if you are an only child? Well, it seems that one of the main issues for only children is that they have to work harder to make friends, because they don't immediately have them in the family They are often more independent and are used to spending time alone and entertaining themselves.

The Influence

Living without Money

of Money

A Weird

Woman

is about Heidemarie Schwermer, a German woman who decided to start living a very different kind of life about 14 years ago. At that time, she left her apartment and gave away all of her things except a suitcase full of clothes. This was a decision that changed her life dramatically. She has no possessions, no place to live and no way to buy the things she needs. The film follows Heidemarie in her day-to-day life and shows what it's like to live an alternative lifestyle. Heidemarie is constantly on the move, meeting new people, staying with old and new friends for a few nights. In addition to showing the daily problems she faces, we hear about Heidemarie's philosophy and why she has chosen to live this way. We see that it is not easy for her to have no money in a society where everything is based on money. People often have strong opinions about how she lives. Some call her a "parasite" while others see her as an "inspiration." Today, she still doesn't use money and says she feels more free and independent than ever. She travels all around Germany, and she often also visits Austria, Switzerland and Italy. She tells people about her experiences and tries to convey the message that a simpler way of life is possible. This is a fascinating documentary for people who are interested in the themes of materialism and consumerism and how money influences our way of thinking and living. I Re-read t h e r e v i e w m o r e carefully. True (T), false (F) or n o t m e n t i o n e d (N)? 1 Her new lifestyle is similar to her old one.

U It's easy to live this kind of lifestyle.

2 She still travels and moves around a lot.

5 She gets paid for sharing her ideas.

3 She sometimes stays with strangers.

6 All audiences will enjoy this movie.

JVIAKE IT PERSONAL Would you like to see this movie? W h y (not)? Is Heidemarie a parasite or an inspiration" Yes, I'd like to see the movie, 'cos I want to know how she can live without using money.

p l Vocabularyl

I don't think she's a parasite, for me she's a very lucky person. Most people need to work to get money to live.

Listening is difficult in any language. We only remember between 2 5 - 5 0 % of what we hear, and when it's a foreign language, understanding 1 0 % is a success. So when you're listening, try to concentrate on general meaning, not specific words.

Here are a few tips to help you to read in English. 1 Try to read things you're interested in and you know something about already. If you don't enjoy reading, you won't do it. 2 Read something in your language and then try to read it in English 3 Make sure longer texts aren't too difficult. If you don't understand more than about eight words per paragraph, choose another text before you get frustrated. 4 Use English subtitles when you watch movies in English. This helps your listening, pronunciation and spelling too.

Phrasal Verbs

I can't hear the TV. Can you turn it up? It's getting dark. Do you want me to turn on the light? When do you want me to give your bike back?

I'll give back your bike tomorrow. I just lost my glasses. Can you help me look for them?

Phrasal verbs consist of a verb + particle (preposition and / or adverb). Most phrasal verbs are separable (the noun can go between the verb and the particle). With separable phrasal verbs, object pronouns must come between the verb and the particle.

A few are inseparable (nouns and pronouns go after the particle). To find out if a phrasal verb is inseparable or not look it up in a dictionary, or the phrasal verbs list on iD Portal, and look at the examples.

M a n : Turn up the TV! W o m a n : No! Turn it down! Boy: Give it back! It's mine!

Marc Hernandez ,t|| Introduction to Statistics

I asked people where they usually like to get their news and here are the results that I found.

I asked twenty people where they usually get their news, and here are the results. The most popular place to get news is on television. H a l f o f t h e people I asked said that they g e t t h e i r n e w s on TV. Twenty-five percent said that they get their news online, two people said they get their news on the radio and two people said they usually read the news in a newspaper. One person said he doesn't read the news. The results surprised me, because I thought that most people got their news on the Internet, but 7 5 % of the people I asked get their news from other sources.

First, get their news online or on television said that they get their news on television and get their news online. get their news on the radio or in the newspaper said they get their news on the radio and get their news in the newspaper. I was surprised because . get their news on the television and not from the Internet.

A Gig Review A Read t h e review. How does t h e m a n r a t e t h e show? * * 7 0 My wife and I went to the Coldplay concert at the Xcel Energy Center yesterday and 1 can say it was one of the best shows I've ever been to. We arrived at the stadium an hour before the show and went straight to our seats. Luckily, we were sitting at the front! © Marina and the Diamonds opened the show and, frankly, they were just OK. However, when Coldplay finally appeared on stage, everybody went crazy. Chris Martin performed with such energy and passion that it was almost surreal! He also interacted with the audience and looked like he was rea//y having fun. Obviously. I can't remember all the songs, but it had a good mix of hits and tracks from their latest album. They even played Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean." Not surprisingly, everybody sang along too!

0 Unfortunately, there were a few disappointments too. For example, the concert didn't start until 9 p.m. and some fans were getting impatient. Also, the music was too loud—my head's still hurting from the bass. Still, the show was unbelievably good. Next time they're in town, be sure to buy a ticket.

Dear Unhappy Wife, This is a very delicate situation, but you should take your father-in-law out to dinner and tell him that you have a problem. You shouldn't be mean, but you should be very clear that what he is doing is making you unhappy. If he ignores you and continues to come to the house and borrow things, you should change the locks on the doors. I hope this helps. That's all for now. See you next week.

RP = radio presenter RP So, we asked seven listeners the question: Hewtnryou usually get your news? Here's what they said. 1 1 still read the newspaper every day. 1 can't read from a computer screen—I like to hold the paper In my hand and turn the pages. 2 I get all my news on Twitter and Facebook —so "social media," I guess. When there's anything big happening I hear about It there. I don't need to go and find out—It's right there and I can follow It easily. 3 Hmm... That's a good question. I guess I usually watch the news on TV. I always watch In the morning when I'm getting ready for work and then late at night. I don't have to waste time reading, I can just listen and watch. i On the radio. I listen to It all day. I wake up to the radio, listen to the news In bed and then |n the car. I love it 'cause you can listen to the news when you drive to work or even when you're jogging. 5 I work from home—I'm a web designer, so I'm online all day long and I have my favorite websites that I use for news. I never watch TV, but I watch a lot of TV online. 6 I'm lucky I have a brand new smartphone so that's where I get my news. I have a few news apps and I check them when I'm commuting to work—It's great for the train—and there's no trash from the newspaper. 7 I don't really read the news. I just see what's In the headlines of my co-worker's newspaper so I don't need to buy one of my own!

and once_again, with no real_agreement reached between the world leaders from_ over 50 nations. 6 ... All_over the country today there were protests_about the rising price_of food. The government is considering lowering taxes on fruit_and vegetables. 7 When_a local news team went to visit grandmother Maria Braun to ask questions about her daughter, they got more than they expected. Maria chased the reporters with_a baseball bat and threatened to call the police. The reporters got no answers to their questions about her daughter, who is suspected_of hacking_into local government computers.

The m|oo|n passed between the Earth and the sun and there was a solar eclipse. Everything went dark in the middle of the day! It was really weird, but c @ at the same time! And in Florida today... Hurricane Minnie hit today: the wind was so strong that it blew glass edt of the windows. It was a huge hurricane with wind speeds of up to 130 mph. Meanwhile, in S U t h Africa... There was a massive rainbow because the sun was shining when it was raining in the National Park. There was even a double rainbow. Very c|oo|l! And in Chile... There was a magnitude five point oh earthquake, some buildings had damage, but no injuries were reported. The earth shook for abfittt 15 seconds. While in Indonesia... There was a tsunami warning and everyone made it to safety. The waves were 20 feet high, but there was no damage. And in Mexico... There were huge thunderstorms overnight that left many homes with«fe p U e r . Lightning struck trees in the area causing pQWer lines to fail. So, as y @ can see, it has been a busy week.

1 There were too many exams. Awful. My grades were never good enough. Or I just flunked too many times Waste of time Awful Bye, bye! 2 Well, basically I spent too much time, uh..., having fun. You know, too busy with friends, concerts, all the parties. I just didn't have enough time to study! So, I just quit. 3 It was too hard to choose a major. I did psychology—hated it—started again. Philosophy, hated that, and, then, well, there were too many choices, so I quit. And uh, got a job. And then another job. I guess I'm not decisive enough. But then, maybe I am... Oh, I don't know. i It wasn't interesting enough and I, uh, just stopped enjoying it. Totally. Every morning, I wanted to do anything, an-y-thing, except go to school. Man, just thinking about school was too depressing. Miserable. Enough was enough. So, uh, boom! Time to say goodbye and fly.

M Yuk. And the fourth reason is...? W The stress of too much work? M Uh-huh, their workload is too heavy. And... W And number five must be that they don't like the place where they work. M Yujp, good job! W I guess 'cos it doesn't have good facilities. M Or it's dirty... W Yeah, stuff like that. M Uh-huh, uh... W What about dropping out of college? Is that for financial reasons too? M No, it says the first reason is that they don't have enough self-discipline to go to class every day and to keep up with assignments and homework. W Right! So, if students miss a lot of classes, they drop out of school. Well, no surprises there! M Number two is when they feel too isolated or homesick away from their family and friends. W I can see that—I felt like that in college. M Money is only number three! When they don't have enough money to continue studying. W So that's pretty different from work, then? M Yeah, interesting, and four is... personal reasons. They have too many personal problems like breaking up with a partner or needing to care for a sick relative. W That's terrible when that happens. M Really. And the final one is...? W Wrong choice? M Yup, when they find they chose the wrong thing to study, and, uh, feel they're not interested in what they're studying. W Oh, yeah!

Number 1: "Imagine" was written by John Lennon in 1971, but it was only released four years later, in 1975. Pretty easy, wasn't it? Number 2 may surprise you, but nearly 400,000 iPhones are sold around the globe every day—that's actually more than the number of babies being born each day. Yep, you heard it right: More iPhones are sold every day than babies are born. How 'bout that? Third question... Lady Gaga's first album was called The Fame. It was released in 2008 and went to number 1 in five different countries. Question 4... Amy Winehouse was only 27 when she was found dead in her apartment in London. Interestingly, singers Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and Kurt Cobain also died at age 27. And finally, here's our last question... British singer Adele is considered one of the world's best vocalists.

M So, my boyfriend, Johnny, proposed last week. It was so romantic! P Well, congratulations! That's wonderful! And you've come to the right place! As a wedding planner, I can help you with everything— from your engagement party to planning your honeymoon. I can find a place for the ceremony, send invitations (though you'll have to make your own guest list of who you want to invite), uh, choose the menu for the reception, find the perfect clothes for the bride and groom, and choose the outfits for the bridesmaids, as well as order the flowers that you choose.

Hello! I'm conducting a sur|ey for the Institute for Meditation and Relaxation. Do you hafe time to answer a question for me? What's the biggest stressor for you in your daily life?

1 W1 Hmmm... Well, in general, I would say that I always hafe so much work—my boss always gifes me deadlines—I |have| [t§ start and finish things with lery little time. In fact, I lhave to| do a report by the end of today, so, sorry, I have to| go. 2 M1 My kids—I hate two children—I lo|e them, don't get me wrong, but it's just so hard caring for them all the time. I never get a break! Melissa! Stop that! 3 W2 It would lhave td be school—there's so much pressure to succeed—we hale exams all the time and I need to do well to get into grad school. h M2 Uh... well, I neier seem to ha#8 enough money. I have a job, but I'm oferworked and underpaid, and I'm in school too and by the end of the month I hate no money and I lhave tolpav for things with my credit card—it's just a ficious circle. 5 W3 Food and eating is the biggest problem for me—I don't have time to eat well and so I eat fast, easy food and this is a really poor diet—I don't eat well when I'm stressed, then I get sick. 6 M3 Lack of sleep—when I don't sleep well, I get worried about not sleeping and that stops me from sleeping and then I get more stressed. Then, when I do sleep, I oversleep! I'm late for class, so I|haveto|go. 7 W4 I really need to exercise eiery day to get energy, but I'm always so tired when I get home at night that I just drop in front of the TV and I hawi no energy, so lack of exercise is my biggest problem. 8 M4 OK, great, thanks, talk to you later, bye.. So, I try to do so many things at the same time, I'm answering the phone and writing e-mails and reading reports all at the same time. Multitasking is really stressful! Excuse me...

Dr = Dr. Marshall

P We've all hjearjd about speed reading and in these times we all want to save sime time. Dr. Samuel Marshall is a speed reading exp|er|t and he is here to give us sime tips on how to improve our reading speed and our Understanding of what we read. Dr Well, the fjnjst thing you can do is to give yourself one minute to read an article, it's better if it's an article that you are interested in, and see how far you get. This will give you an idea of how fast you read. Then, start again and read for one minute. Do this four times and try to read f a t h e r each time you read the same article. P And you'll find that you read f a t h e r each time you read, correct? Dr Yes, it's easier to read and Understand slmething the second time you read it, so you should read faster each time you read. OK, second strategy to try. Read the same short article of 200 wjorjds as many times as you can in two minutes. P And what will happen? Dr You should find that each time you read the article, you should read it faster, so if it takes you one minute the ijujst time, it should take you half a minute the seccr.d time and then less the thin: time 1 ."ext

strategy, if you're in a class, you can all try to read at the same speed. If you have a 100-w(oi]d text and you want to read at 200 w|or]ds p§r] minute, the class has just tb|5jty seconds to read the article. P So, you're all trying to read at the same speed? Dr That's right. And a final strategy to try. Choose your own reading pace and time yourself. For example, if you want to read at 200 wf5r)ds p^r] minute, divide the text into 200-w^d chinks and mark every 200 words. Have the alarm go off every minute and see where you are in the text. P Thanks Dr. Marshall. I'm [cerjtainly going to try out a few of these ideas.

B = Dr. Brayman

P Now for our next caller. Carla, you're through to Dr. Brayman. C Hello, Dr. Brayman. B Hi Carla. What's your question? C It's kind of hard to talk about, but my question is about jealousy. My partner, Jack, calls me all the time to find out where I am and what I'm doing.

O R e v . 6.3 B Well Carla—this is a difficult problem, because most people who have a jealous partner make the problem worse. If a partner calls all the time, the natural thing to do is don't answer the phone calls and then you start to have secrets from your partner. Have you found that happening' C Yes, totally! I mean, sometimes, he calls me every hour, even when I'm at work! I don't answer the phone, or I sometimes tell him that I left my phone at home—anything so that I don't have to answer his calls. B And I understand that, but this makes Jack more jealous and then he calls you even more and you have to find other ways not to take his calls and you start to become more and more secretive, right? C That's right, so what would you do Dr. Brayman? B The best way to deal with a jealous partner is to talk about where the jealousy is coming from. Your partner feels jealous because he's afraid of losing you. Try talking to him about his fears and worries. Tell him that you love him and that you aren't going to leave him. Tell him that his jealousy is having a negative effect on your relationship. But at the same time you need to build his self-esteem and confidence. C I see, so you think I should talk to him instead of ignoring his phone calls? B Yes, but remember that he's not going to change from one day to the next. A problem like this will take months and even years, so you also need to decide if you want to take this time. If your partner agreed, I would recommend that you both go and talk to an expert. C Yeah, maybe he would go to a counselor. I'll try it. Thanks, Dr. Brayman.

B Good luck. Carla. P And our next caller is on line two...
