ALL IN THE FAMILY |JQQQ|

I love old films and my family loves them, too. My mum and dad always talk about a really old
film called Swiss Family Robinson, also a book, about a Swiss family who find themselves on
a desert island when their boat sinks. And do you know what? I like it, too. So guys - here's
today's topic. Old films about families. So you know my opinion, what about yours?
3 comments reply to post

How about the Home Alone films in the 1990s, all about 8-year-old Kevin McCallister? The first one is definitely
the best. Kevin's parents forget to take him on the family Christmas holiday. Kevin is happy at first because he's
got the whole house to himself and his brothers and sisters aren't there to annoy him. He has lots of fun stopping
two silly criminals from robbing the family home. But he starts to miss his family and on Christmas morning he
gets the best present of all - everyone comes back home! It was funny then and it's still funny now.
Emma, Brighton

Whose favourite family is the Parrs in The Incredibles? Remember them? The Parrs are like most families. You
know, they fight and argue and have fun. But they're also a family of superheroes. Dad is super strong. Mum is
super stretchy. Violet, their eldest child, can turn invisible, and then nobody can see her. Her younger brother
Dash is super fast and her baby brother Jack-Jack has laser eyes. I think those films are great, old or not.
Max, Birmingham

I like your comments, Max and Emma. And here is mine. The Addams Family! They're a really strange family
who live in a normal town. They all wear black. They live in a huge old house. Other families think they're
a little bit scary, but the Addams family don't care. The parents, Gomez and Morticia, and their children,
Wednesday and Pugsley, are happy being different. And there's Cousin It, too. He (or she - no one is sure)
is covered in fur. And finally there is Uncle Fester, Gomez's brother. They're one of the best loved screen
families of all time - in my house, anyway!

SUZIE SAVES HER MUM
One day Suzie McCash went shopping with her mum in Tynemouth,
England. Suzie was four years old. Her mum didn’t feel very well at the
shops, so they went home.
In the house, Suzie’s mum went to lie on the sofa. She was there for a
long time. Her eyes were shut and it wasn’t easy for her to breathe. Suzie
was worried. Was her mum really ill? Suzie went to the house next door,
but the neighbours weren’t there. So she phoned 999 - the emergency
telephone number for the police.
The police officer was very kind and Suzie was calm. ।

OFFICER: ‘What’s your mummy doing now?’


SUZIE: ‘Um, she’s just sitting on the sofa and she’s doing nothing.’
OFFICER: ‘Are her eyes open?1
SUZIE: ‘No, they’re shut.’
And later...
OFFICER: ‘Can you open the door? Can you be a big girl?’

Soon the police were at their house and an


ambulance was there, too. About an hour later,
Suzie’s mum was OK again. A doctor said: ‘Her
mummy was very sick. Without Suzie’s phone
call, her mummy might be dead now.’
Suzie’s story was in the newspapers and
people were surprised and happy about it.
She was a very brave girl and, a year later,
she was in the news again because she
was named a Child of Courage at the
Pride of Britain Awards for helping her
mother.

What family traditions are there in your country?

FAMILY TRADITIONS
aroun
The idea of the family is important all
over the world and many countries have
special occasions to celebrate it. Let's look
at a few ...
FIRST DAY AT SCHOOL - GERMANY
In Germany, the first day at school is a very important
time for all children. There is a special event called an
Einschulung. Everyone in the family meets to give the child
presents, like pens and books, for their new school life. For
the first day of school, parents give their children a large
paper cone called a Schultute. Inside there are things for
school and sweets.

REMEMBERING YOUR ANCESTORS - JAPAN


In traditional Japanese houses you often find a butsudan.
A butsudan is a special place where you go to remember
your dead relatives. People usually put things on the
butsudan for their ancestors: a book, some flowers or a
bowl of rice, for example. Adults also tell stories about
these people to their children so they are not forgotten.

LO OKING AFTER ANIMALS - IN D IA


Pets are popular in many cultures around the world
Looking after an animal helps a child learn how to
be responsible. Every year there is a Hindu
festival called Thai Pongal. During the festival families
feed cows and birds to give thanks for these animals.
Children also learn that all living things are connected
and must share the world together.

W R ITIN G POEMS - THE NETHERLANDS


In the Netherlands people celebrate the winter holiday on
the 5 th December. This holiday is called Sinterklaas. People
give each other presents, but they also have a very special
tradition. Each member of the family writes thei r name on
a piece of paper and puts it in a hat. Everyone then takes
a name from the hat and writes a poem about this person.
Everyone sits in a circle and reads out their poems.

THE 21st CENTURY

n 2007, Angelo Mastropietro was in the


I woods in Worcestershire, UK when it started
to rain. He looked for a place to keep dry and
he discovered a cave house! The cave house was
800 years old. People lived in the rock-house
for hundreds of years, but from about 1962, no
one lived there and the house stayed empty.

Angelo liked the rock-house very much. He looked into I


the possibility of buying it. It was for sale and in 2010 ’
he decided to get it. After that, he started to cut into
the rock and to rebuild and modernise the house.
Angelo (who is English, even though his name is Italian)
finished the house in nine months. He was a businessman
before he started the house, and before 2007 he was quite
ill, so he wanted a place where it was possible for him to
live in a happy and healthy way. He realised that he didn't
need to live in a huge apartment and that being closer to
nature could help him feel better.
He worked for over a thousand hours from beginning to T H !N K

things that he needed. He planned everything himself, he

We’re still in Ireland. We arrived in Dublin four days ago. My sister and I liked
it a lot - it was great - we weren’t bored at all! Then yesterday, after lunch,
Dad hired a car and we travelled to the west of Ireland - it didn’t take very
long, just about two and a half hours, butthat was a bit boring. But, after two
hours, Dad turned round to us and said: ‘We’ve got a surprise for you. Tonight
our hotel is a castle! How exciting is that!’ A joke, right? Wrong! We didn’t think
he was serious, but he was!

At the end of the journey, we stopped outside a real castle. A nice lady
welcomed us and started to show us around. What an amazing place! Can you

very well last night - I was so excited to be in a real castle!

This morning we had breakfast and then we climbed up to the top of the
castle. We were amazed at the beautiful countryside around us. Then it
started to rain and there was a fantastic rainbow - I love rainbows!

The place was so great, we didn’t want to leave. This afternoon we want to go

The story is about a young man called DArtagnan who goes to Paris to join
the musketeers (special soldiers who protect the king). He meets Athos,
Aramis and Porthos, three friends who are the greatest musketeers in
France, and they have many adventures together. They often say: 'One for
all and all for one', which shows their strong friendship.

(1894) by Rudyard Kipling is a story about


animals who are very like people - some good, some not so good. But there
is also Mowgli, a small human boy who grows up in the Indian jungle. Many
animals want to find him because he knows how to make fire. Mowgli's
great friend and guardian is a bear called Baloo and also a black panther
called Bagheera, who help him to escape from the tiger, Shere Khan.

(1937-1949) by J.R.R. Tolkien is a fantasy story


about Frodo, who gets a ring from his uncle Bilbo Baggins. Frodo lives in
a place called the Shire in Middle Earth and has a friend, Sam. When Frodo
leaves the Shire on a long journey with the ring, Sam (as well as some other
friends) goes with him. Sam's friendship is very im portant for Frodo: as he
faces many dangerous situations, Sam is always there to help him.

A more modern book is______________________ (2011) by Elena


Ferrante. It is the first o f a series of four novels. The story begins in Naples
in the 1950s. Elena and Lila are friends at school, but they have a lot of
arguments, too. As they grow up, life takes them away from each other.
But when they are both old, things happen that bring them together again.

The world of sport is full of wonderful moments. Here are our top three.

The triple double


The starting gun went off. Suddenly, eight athletes were flying down the track in Rio de
Janeiro’s Olympic Stadium. Less than 20 seconds later the race was over. Usain Bolt
was walking around the stadium with the Jamaican flag over his shoulders - he was a
double Olympic champion ... again! Four years earlier, at the 2012 London Olympics,
he became the first man to win a gold medal in both the 100m and 200m sprint at
a second Olympic Games (he won them both at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, too). In
Rio, he did it for a third time. As well as his eight Olympic gold medals (he won the
other two in relay races with other teammates), Bolt also won 11 world championships
and currently holds the world record for the 100m and 200m. He is one of the greatest
sprinters in history.

★The perfect ten


Everyone was looking at 15-year-old Romanian gymnast
Nadia Comaneci as she left the bars, flew through the air and
landed perfectly on the ground. She turned round. The crowd
was cheering. Everyone was waiting nervously for the judges’
score. Then it came. The scoreboard was showing ‘1.00’. The
crowd was confused. But then the organisers explained. The
makers of the scoreboards thought it was impossible to get a
perfect score of 10. The boards were not able to show ‘10.00’
So, on 18 July 1976, at the Montreal Olympics, Nadia made
history when she became the first gymnast ever to get a
perfect ten. She got six more ‘perfect scores’ at the games
and won three gold medals, making her one of the best
athletes in her sport of all time.

The four-minute mile

In 2011, for example, French golfer Thomas Levet won the French Open. He was so

all about your silliest sporting accidents.

Last year, I was playing volleyball for my school team.


I jumped up high and hit the ball really hard. At first,
I thought it was a really good shot, but I soon found out it
wasn’t. The ball hit the post at the side of the net: then
it hit me in the face and knocked me to the floor. I had a
big purple bruise on my face and I couldn’t play the rest
of the game. Liam

leaving the stage, I tripped and fell down the steps.
Luckily, I wasn’t hurt, but I was really, really embarrassed.

of sport

Sports such as football, tennis and golf are popular all


over the world with millions of people playing them or
watching them on TV. But there are also many unusual
sports that are not so well known. Here are four
interesting examples.

Every year, on a small Chinese island, thousands of people arrive to


celebrate a very special event: the Cheung Chau bun festival. The highlight
of the festival is a race to the top of a very strange mountain. The mountain
is made of metal and covered with a type of traditional Chinese bun.
Spectators watch as three teams compete to see how many buns they can
take from the mountain. The climb can be quite dangerous and people who
want to take part must take a special training course.

Camel racing is a popular sport in many countries around the world,


including Mongolia and Australia. But it is especially popular in the Middle
East and each year, from late October to early April, many big races
take place in countries such as the United Arab Emirates. As many as 70
camels race along sandy desert tracks for up to 16 km. The owners of the
camels drive by the side of the animals shouting at them to run faster and
cross the finish line before the others.

Chess boxing was the invention of Dutch artist lepe

As you probably know, the town council have got £1 million to


spend on improving the town’s facilities for young people and w e’re
looking for great ideas on how to spend the money well. Post your
ideas in the forum below and let us know how we can make life
better for you.

0 There’s nothing for teenagers to do in this town, especially at night.


Can we use the money to build a youth club? Somewhere with a pool
table and a table tennis table, perhaps. We need somewhere to play
happily and hang out safely in the evenings. @ Daisy, 15
Q As I’m only 14, I can’t drive, so I go everywhere on my bike. But the
roads are dangerous and many motorists drive too fast. How about
spending the money on building more cycle lanes? We could also put
in more speed cameras and zebra crossings, too. This will make life
safer for all our citizens, not just the young people. @ Liz, 14
Q I think the best use for the money is to build a playground in the town
park. It should have lots of rides for the young kids but also stuff for
teenagers, too. I’d like to see a graffiti wall and a skateboard park for
a start and maybe if there is enough money, we can have a climbing
wall, too. @ Luke, 13
0 Our high street is full of empty shops because everyone just shops
at the new shopping centre outside of town or online. Why don’t
we use the money to turn some of these empty shops into an arts
centre? It can have studios where we can draw and paint or learn how
to make films. We could also have a music studio where local bands
can record music cheaply. @ Alex, 17
0 How about a big billboard at the entrance to the town that reads,
‘TEEN WARNING - there’s nothing to do here!’ @ Sadie, 16
0 This probably sounds like a boring idea, but can’t we use some of the
money to buy more litter bins? I feel ashamed of our town when I see
all the litter on the ground. We need to tidy up our town quickly!

There are very few places on Earth that are undiscovered and we
have satellite photos of the most remote places on the planet. But
people are always interested in mythical lands, places that people
say exist but no one has ever found.
Perhaps the most famous mythical place of all is Atlantis. Some people
say it is a city, others say it is an island and others call it a continent. But
whatever it is exactly, there is one thing that everyone agrees on: it is
underneath the sea. The Greek philosopher Plato was the first person
to describe it and he suggested that one time, its people attacked
Athens. No one is sure exactly where Atlantis is. Because of its name,
some people think it is somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean. Others say
it's in the Mediterranean Sea or in the Caribbean.
Agartha is another mythical place that is not on the land. The legend
says that it's at the centre of our planet. Like Atlantis, it is famous for
its culture and educated society. It was the inspiration for Jules Verne's
novel Journey to the Centre of the Earth. It tells the story of a group
of travellers who go on an exciting adventure underground. Many
people have tried to find the entrance to Agartha, which they think is Our final mythical land is an island called Thule. The legend

t heamo r l d
Seventeen-year-old Tom Davidson hasn’t left his home since
he was 15. The last time he went out was two years ago.
He was walking to catch a bus when he was hit on the head
by a sign falling from a building. He spent more than two
months in hospital and doctors told him he was lucky to be
alive. The accident left Tom with agoraphobia: the idea of being
outdoors makes him feel extremely anxious.

The problem is that Tom loves travelling. Before his accident, Tom spent
most weekends exploring his home city of London by bus, underground
train and his scooter, and he looked forward to holidays abroad with his
parents. Now the idea of driving in a car to France or taking a plane to Italy
terrifies him.
However, there is a way that Tom can still visit the most remote corners of
the world without leaving the security of his home: Google Maps. In the last
year and a half, Tom has visited every country in the world where Google
Maps has been and taken photos. Using ‘street view’, he has walked down
the streets of the world’s most famous cities, he has seen all the world’s
most amazing geographical features and he has visited places in the world
that he didn’t know existed: all of this from the comfort of his home.
Tom’s virtual travel is more than just a hobby - it has become an art project.
He has taken more than 5,000 screenshots of places he has visited and
last week, there was an exhibition of his best photos at a school near his
home (but of course, he didn’t go). Tom also hopes that his online journeys
will help him eventually to overcome his agoraphobia. As he discovers
more places that he wants to visit one day, he is becoming more and more
determined to leave his home. And his dream, if he can, is to work in the
travel industry, for example as a flight attendant or a tour guide.
