Forrest Gump
One day when Curtis had to change a wheel on the car, I helped him.
‘If you’re an idiot,’ he said angrily, ‘how do you know how to do this?’
‘Maybe I am an idiot,’ I said, ‘but I’m not stupid.’ I was born an idiot, but I’m cleverer than most people think.
Introduction
We quickly realize this is true in the wonderfully warm and funny story about Forrest Gump, a good-hearted young man from Alabama in the USA. He wins a medal for being very brave in the Vietnam War and meets the President of the United States of America. He becomes a footballer, a film star, a businessman and he goes into space. And his best friend is an ape called Sue!
School and football
I was born an idiot – but I’m cleverer than people think. I can think things OK, but when I have to say them or write them down, sometimes they come out all wrong. When I was born, my Mom named me Forrest. My daddy died just after I was born. He worked on the ships. One day a big box of bananas fell down on my daddy and killed him.
I don’t like bananas much. Only banana cake. I like that all right.

At first when I was growing up, I played with everybody. But then some boys hit me and my Mom didn’t want me to play with them again. I tried to play with girls, but they all ran away from me.
I went to an ordinary school for a year. Then the children started laughing and running away from me. But one girl, Jenny Curran, didn’t run
ordinary vanlig strange underlig grew (grow) växte inches tum (1 inch=2,54 cm) next to bredvid driver förare
away, and sometimes she walked home with me. She was nice.
Then they put me into another kind of school, and there were some strange boys there. Some couldn’t eat or go to the toilet without help. I stayed in that school for five or six years. But when I was thirteen, I grew six inches in six months! And by the time I was sixteen, I was bigger and heavier than all the other boys in the school.
One day I was walking home, and a car stopped next to me. The driver asked me my name, and I told him. ‘What school do you go to?’ he asked.
I told him about the idiot school.
‘Do you ever play football?’ he asked.
‘No,’ I told him. ‘I see other people playing, but I don’t play and they never ask me to play with them.’
‘OK,’ the man said.
Three days later, the man in the car came and got me out of school. Mom was there, and they got all the things out of my desk and put them in a brown paper bag. Then they told me to say goodbye to the teacher.
The man in the car took me and Mom to the new high school. There, an old man with grey hair asked me lots of questions. But I knew that they really wanted me to play football. The man in the car was a football coach called Fellers. Coach Fellers asked me to put on a football suit, then asked me to undress and dress again, twenty times, until I could do it easily.
I began to play football with the high school team, and Coach Fellers helped me. And I went to lessons in the school. One teacher, Miss Henderson, was really nice. She taught me to read. And who do you think I saw in the school café? Jenny Curran! She was all grown-up now,

ABOUT THE BOOK
with pretty black hair, long legs, and a beautiful face. I went and sat with her, and she remembered me.
But there was a boy in the café who started calling me names, and saying things like, ‘How’s stupid?’ Then he threw some milk at me, and I jumped out of my chair and ran away. A day or two later, after school in the afternoon, he and his friends came up to me and started pushing and hitting me. Then they ran after me across the football field. I ran away fast!
I saw that Coach Fellers was watching me. He had a strange look on his face, and he came and told me to put on my football suit. That afternoon, he gave me the ball to run with. The others started running after me, and I ran as fast as I could. When they caught me, it needed eight of them to pull me down! Coach Fellers was really happy! He started jumping up and down and laughing. And after that, everybody liked me.
We had our first game, and I was frightened. But they gave me the ball and I ran over the goal line two or three times. People were really kind to me after that!
remember komma ihåg called somebody names ung. reta någon threw (throw) kastade goal line mållinje really verkligen
Forrest Gump is not like other children. People have even called him “idiot”. But, as he points out himself, “Maybe I am an idiot, but I’m not stupid.” No, he certainly isn't.

Feeling Good from A–Z
Accept who you are and take pride in yourself. How do you react if you get a compliment? Listen to the nice things people say to you and believe them. Don’t forget to compliment others! Make someone else feel good and you’ll feel pretty good yourself.
Be thankful. No matter how bad your day is, make a mental list of what you’ve got to be grateful for. It can be small things like having a comfortable bed, etc.
Creativity helps you to feel better. Paint, write, or dance when you feel a bit down. Singing a song, even if it’s in your head, releases endorphins and actually makes you feel great.
Dreams give a lot of information about your life. Have you tried to write them down as soon as you wake up? Interpreting dreams is a useful way of getting to know yourself better.
Early to bed may sound boring but also try to get up an hour earlier for a while. You’d be surprised at how much you can get done before everyone else gets up and gets in your way.
Fitness is vital. Find some kind of exercise that you enjoy doing. Your body is your most important possession, so you need to look after it well.
take pride in vara stolt över compliment komplimang no matter det spelar ingen roll grateful tacksam comfortable bekväm creativity skapande kraft release frigöra endorphin endorfin
Goals are necessary. If you aim too high, you can get disappointed if you don’t make it. Be realistic! Instead set a small goal and once you meet it, work on the next.
Help can be given by friends. Let them know when you’re feeling down. It will make you feel less isolated. Once they realize how you feel they might be able to cheer you up again.
Imagine yourself in a new hairstyle or hair colour when you’re fed-up with your looks. Hair plays a big part in our image, so if you fancy a change, why not go for a whole new look? After all, if you don’t like it, it will grow back –eventually ...
Job hunting may seem a long way away yet. But see if there is any kind of extra job you can do in your spare time. Why not offer to walk a neighbour’s dog?
Knowledge is power. Learn some new fascinating facts every day.
Libraries are good places for books or you can download an e-book. The cheapest way to travel is through books. You can go all around the world – and to other planets, too. A nice way to exercise your mind.
Messiest bedroom in town? Why not set aside a Saturday to give it a good clean out? You’ll feel so much better when it’s nice and tidy again. And you’ll probably make somebody else happy, too!
actually faktiskt interpret tolka fitness kondition vital livsviktig possession ägodel goal mål feel down känna sig deppig isolated isolerad, ensam
image h. stil (framtoning) fancy gilla eventually så småningom messiest stökigast set aside sätta av clean out städa, rensa upp tidy städad, snygg
Negative thoughts or worries just drain your energy. Stop worrying about things you can’t change. Work on the things you can do something about.
Organize and prioritise. By doing this you will feel in control and can decide what things are the most urgent and important. Feeling prepared can help you to get rid of a lot of stress.
Positive thinking helps you to reach your goals. If you feel unsure of yourself look back at what you have already achieved. That will give you the confidence to go forward.
Quietness makes it easier to listen to your inner thoughts. Lie down, close your eyes, just listen to your body and relax.
Remember to have fun. Doing something you really enjoy means you get a chance to take a break and “recharge your batteries”.
Secretly learn some new skill, or try new things. Realizing that the world holds a lot more possibilities can help you forget your problems. There’s a well-known English saying that “a change is as good as a rest”.
Treat yourself to something extra every so often. It might be to your favourite food, a new film or just a nice hot bath. These little treats will give you the energy to face the tough times, too.
U are very important. Always keep that in mind.
Variety is the spice of life. Remember this old saying when you’re going to eat, choose a film, or buy some new clothes or …
Walking for half an hour a day is a good and cheap way to exercise.
Xtra. That little x-tra can make a big difference. An x-tra smile, an x-tra hug, an x-tra kind word....
Yoga and meditation are two ways to concentrate on your body and help you to reduce stress.
Zest for life is what you hopefully have by now. There’s so much to experience and learn in life. They say “You only live once” so make the most of it!

Bruce Lee –the Martial Arts Specialist
In spite of a very short life, Bruce Lee is probably the most famous martial arts film star in the world.
Born: 27 November 1940
Birthplace: San Francisco, California
Died: 20 July 1973
Best known as: Star of Enter the Dragon
Bruce Lee (Lee Hsiao Lung), was born in San Francisco in November 1940, the son of a famous Chinese opera singer. A year later, the family moved to Hong Kong where Bruce soon became a child star in the growing film industry in the Far East. His first film was called The Birth of Mankind, while his last film – which was uncompleted at the time of his death in 1973 – was called Game of Death.
At the age of 12 he was beaten up by a street gang. It was after this that he decided to take up martial arts training. He had a temper and often ended up in fights, so his parents advised him to return to the U.S. At the age of 19, Bruce left Hong Kong to study for a degree in Philosophy at the University of Seattle. It was at this time that he worked as a waiter and also began to teach some of his martial arts skills to any students who would pay. It was also at university that he met his future wife, Linda.
After graduating, he got some small roles in Hollywood films. At the same time, he continued to teach martial arts and it wasn’t long before a number of major stars were begging to be students of the ‘Little Dragon’ as he was called. He regularly demonstrated his martial arts skills at exhibitions, and it was during one of these that he was spotted by a producer and signed up to do The Green Hornet series.

future h. blivande graduate ta examen continue fortsätta major stora, betydande regularly regelbundet exhibition utställning during under be spotted by upptäckas av producer producent sign up skriva på (kontrakt)
The series was fairly successful in the States – but was a really huge hit in Hong Kong. Bruce visited Hong Kong in 1968 and was totally overwhelmed by the attention he received from the people he had left. He once said on a radio program if the price was right he would love to do a movie for Chinese audiences.
He returned to the States. But back in Hong Kong producers were desperate to sign Bruce up for a martial arts film, and it was Raymond Chow the head of Golden Harvest who produced The Big Boss. This film was a major success and earned 3.5 million dollars in less than three weeks! This film was followed by several other very successful movies. His last film – The Game of Death – was the first-ever co-production between the U.S. and Hong Kong film industries.
Unfortunately, Bruce Lee never got to complete this film. It was completed later using a stand-in for all the un-shot scenes. On July 20th 1973, Bruce Lee died from a brain haemorrhage due to an allergic reaction to a pain killer he was taking for a headache. Doctors were stunned, as he seemed so fit and strong.
Bruce Lee had two children; Shannon and Brandon. Brandon Lee met the same destiny as his father. He became an actor, but died in 1994 at the age of 29 while filming The Crow.

Bend It Like Beckham
by Narinder Dham
Jess’s parents want her to be a nice, conventional Indian girl. They pray she will settle down, study for law school and learn to cook. But Jess has other plans. She wants to play football like David Beckham. After all, anyone can learn to cook an aloo gobi, but not anyone can bend it like Beckham.
A few weeks later, I was in the changing-rooms, getting dressed after a training session. I’d kind of got used to getting changed in front of the others now, and I didn’t feel uncomfortable sitting there in my sports bra and shorts next to Jules, while I took off my boots.
‘Is that right then, Jess?’ Charlie, the goalie, asked me as she towelled her hair dry. ‘Your parents have no idea you’ve been playing all this time?’
I shrugged. ‘Nah, they haven’t.’ Now that I felt more comfortable around the other girls, I’d let them in on my little secret.
‘Where do they think you are, then?’ Mel asked.
‘At work.’ I pulled off one of my boots. ‘They think I’ve got a summer job at HMV.’
‘Blimey.’ Mel looked a bit startled. ‘That’s not on.’
‘Indian girls aren’t supposed to play football,’ I explained helpfully.
‘That’s a bit backward, innit?’ Mel remarked, picking up her towel.
‘Yeah, but it ain’t just an Indian thing, is it?’ Jules cut in. ‘I mean, how many people come out to support us?’
Mel ignored her and grinned at me. ‘So, are you, like, promised to someone, then?’
‘Nah,’ I said, looking alarmed. All the other girls in the changingroom were listening now too. ‘No way. My sister’s getting married soon, but that’s a love match.’
‘What’s that mean?’
‘It’s not arranged,’ I replied.
‘So, if you can choose,’ Charlie said, looking interested, ‘can you marry a white boy?’
I shook my head. ‘White, no. Black, definitely not. Muslim – ‘ I drew my finger across my throat.
Mel and the others looked shocked.
‘So you’ll probably marry an Indian boy, then?’ Jules asked, packing our kit away in her sports bag.

‘Probably.’
Mel was shaking her head. ‘I don’t know how you put up with it.’
I shrugged. ‘It’s just my culture, that’s all,’ I said defensively. ‘Anyway, it’s better than sleeping around with boys you’re not going to end up marrying. What’s the point in that?’
They all burst out laughing.
‘That’s the best bit!’ giggled Sally, one of our defenders.
‘Yeah, you should know,’ Charlie retorted.
They all laughed even harder. I turned pink, and bent over to do up my trainers.
‘When are you going to get some decent boots, Jess?’ Jules asked, as we went outside. ‘You want some Adidas ones like mine. They’re especially made for women.’
‘They look a bit pricey,’ I said doubtfully, but I was thinking hard. If I was going to take my game seriously, I really should get some new boots. At the moment, I was still using the tatty ones Joe had given me. There must be a way I could get the money for some new ones.
I headed for home, dumped my bag in the flower border as usual and went inside. Mum was sitting on the sofa. She was doing some sewing and watching a Hindi film with Amitabh Bachchan, her favourite actor. I was knackered, and dying for something to eat.
‘Mum,’ I said in my sweetest voice, ‘I’m really starving. I had to work all through my lunch hour today.’
Mum had been fussing around me ever since I started my ‘summer job’ so I was hoping she’d get up and make a meal. Instead, she just started at me.
‘Where’s Pinky?’ she asked, looking over my shoulder at the front door. ‘She went to HMV to pick you up, so you wouldn’t be late for Poli. She’s coming to measure you for the wedding suits.’
My stomach flipped over, and my heart began to pound. It was so loud. I was surprised Mum couldn’t hear it. I was desperately trying to think of an explanation which would cover me, when the front door opened.
Total panic. I looked around as Pinky came in, looking pissed off. She gave me a filthy look, and I gulped. Was she going to give me away?

Förord
I Word Trainer lägger du grunden till ett varierat ordförråd. Med hjälp av vikordlistor kan du öva de viktigaste orden i Classbook. Hur vikordlistorna fungerar kan du läsa om på nästa sida.
Olika nivåer – ”Levels”
I varje Unit finns texter av olika svårighetsgrad och dessa är markerade med ••• , ••• eller ••• , där tre svarta prickar (röda i Classbook) står för de svåraste texterna.
Orden övas i korsord
I häftet finns två korsord i slutet av varje Unit. Det första övar ord från Level ••• medan det andra tar upp ord från Level ••• och Level •••
Mål – planera – föra logg
Sist i Word Trainer hittar du Planners. Dessa ger en översikt av Classbook, Workbook, Word Trainer och den digitala delen. Här kan du se målen för varje unit, planera och föra logg över ditt arbete. Du kan pricka av vilka moment du har gjort och på så sätt få en uppfattning om hur det går med dina studier och vad du har arbetat med i Magic! 8
Jobba med ordlistorna i tre steg:
1 Översätt de engelska ord som står i fetstil och skriv det svenska ordet på raden intill. Till din hjälp står de svenska orden i bokstavsordning i den grå rutan längst ner på sidan.
