END OF YEAR REVISION

UNIT 1Dear Sonya,As you know, we (1) AREN’T GETTING (not get) any younger. I often have trouble remembering things, and even now, I (2) DON’T KNOW (not know) where my glasses are so I (3) AM WRITING (write) without them. But all is not lost! Tomorrow I (4) AM GOING (go) to Brain Spa, which is a new fitness gym – for the mind! These “brain gyms” (5) ARE BECOMING (become) more and more popular nowadays because experts say that training the brain (6) IMPROVES (improve) memory, just as physical exercise (7) MAKES (make) the body strong. I realise that you (8) DON’T USUALLY ENJOY (not usually enjoy) doing puzzles or computer games, but they say that at Brain Spa the time (9) PASSES (pass) quickly and it’s really quite fun. (10) DO you WANT (want) to try it? Perhaps we could go together.All the best,Bertha

Unit 2NO HUGS ALLOWED(1) DO you FEEL (feel) that the rules at your school are too strict? Well, Shephard Junior High School in Arizona, USA has got rules that are probably stricter. One warm spring day last March, 14-year-old Shephard student Chelsea Braham (2) WAS GIVING (give) her best friend a big hug when suddenly another friend (3) TAPPED (tap) her on the shoulder. “Be careful,” she said. “The teacher (4) IS WATCHING (watch) you!” But it was too late. The teacher (5) SENT (send) Chelsea to the principal’s office. Her crime? She (6) HAD HUGGED (hug) her friend for too long, breaking a new school rule: hugging in the school for more than two seconds was forbidden.The following day, 100 students (7) HELD (hold) a protest across the street from the school. The entire group (8) HUGGED (hug) each other for 20 minutes. Chelsea, who was one of them, had her mother’s full support. While Chelsea’s mother (9) WAS WATCHING (watch) her daughter she remarked, “She (10) TOOK (take) a

stand and I’m standing behind her.”

Unit 3DANGER: DRINKING WATERInvestigators (1) HAVE RECENTLY FOUND (recently find) medicines in the drinking water of all 50 states of the United States. Earlier this year, they (2) EXAMINED (examine) samples of water from all over the country. While they (3) WERE WORKING (work), they began to realise that the situation was very serious. The results showed that there were small amounts of drugs in all the samples they (4) HAD TAKEN (take) – painkillers, antibiotics, hormones and medicines for epilepsy, to name a few. The problem is that the water many people (5) DRINK (drink) comes from rivers or lakes that (6) AREN’T (not be) pure. The water is cleaned, but this (7) DOESN’T REMOVE (not remove) all bacteria – or drugs. At the present time, researchers (8) DON’T UNDERSTAND (not understand) the dangers of many years of exposure to low levels of medicines, but they (9) HAVE ALREADY DONE (already do) experiments on animals which suggest serious effects. So, anyone in the United States who (10) IS NOW DRINKING(now drink) a glass of cold water from the tap should think twice. They may want to put it down and buy some mineral water instead!

Unit 4The city of London (1) IS PLANNING (plan) an amazing new attraction On the Thames River – an artificial beach with promenades, palm trees and 2-metre-high waves for surfers. The beach (2) WILL COST (cost) £20 million to build. Planners (3) HAVE ALREADY RECEIVED (already receive) permission to begin, and by the end of 2011, they (4) WILL HAVE COMPLETED (complete) this enormous project. Some surfers feel that surfing on the Thames River (5) WON’T BE (not be) as exciting as on the open sea. However, Steve Jones, the project’s creator, (6) BELIEVES (believe) that thousands of London surfers (7) WILL USE (use) the beach, since the nearest real beach is hours away. One fan of the idea said, “The last time I wanted to surf, I (8) DROVE (drive) for five hours from London to Cornwall only to find that the wind (9) HAD CHANGED (change) direction and there were no waves. When this project is finished, don’t look for me at home after work – I (10) WILL BE SURFING(surf) on the Thames River!”
