‘No one knew why except me!’
Wat wist alleen Maureen?
A dat de baby door haar schuld misselijk was geworden
B dat ze de baby veel te laat naar bed had gebracht
C dat ze de tanden van de baby veel te hard had gepoetst
Baby Blues
“My aunt went out of town, and I had to baby-sit my two-year-old
cousin. That night, when I was putting her to bed, I brushed her
teeth with this baby toothpaste that my aunt had laid out.
I kept noticing my cousin was making all these funny faces, but I
just kept brushing.
Turns out, I was brushing her teeth with diaper rash lotion
that was next to the toothpaste!
The next morning, she woke up sick - and no one knew why
except me!”

I WANT TO BE ON HOLIDAY
Q I always cry and feel upset.
The only time I am happy is when
I’m on holiday and I’ve recently come
back from one. All I have to look
forward to is going away. I hate
waking up in the morning thinking
every day is going to be the same.
All I have to live for is holidays. What
should I do?
Kirsty,15, Derby
A
What is it exactly you love so
much about holidays? Is it the sense
of freedom? Perhaps you can get more
of these elements into your day-to-day life.
Then you might not be so bored. Ask your
family to help you do more of the things
you love to do during the holidays. So, if
it’s variety, perhaps you can go places
after school or at weekends. Give it a go!

IT’S A
DOG-GONE
MIRACLE
THANKS TO LOVE, FAITH AND THE HELP OF
A STRANGER, A FAMILY FOUND ITS
BELOVED LOST DOG CUJO AFTER SIX
LONG YEARS!

“I got Cujo 13 years ago as a
pup from my brother Mike,” says
Noreen Barker, 41, from St. Louis.
“He was the most beautiful golden
retriever with a curly tail and a
heart-shaped patch of white on his
forehead. He also had a very
unusual manner of saying hello by
rubbing against you cat-style.” The
playful dog quickly captured the
heart of Noreen’s husband, David
and their two children Kayla and
Jacob.
But six years ago, tragedy
struck. The Barkers were moving
and the dog darted out through an
open gate into a busy road.
Despite an extensive search, the
heartbroken family failed to find
their pet. But they never forgot
him! For the next six years Kayla,
12, put up a special Christmas
stocking for Cujo. “She always said
he would come back to us,” says
Noreen.
On January 19, Noreen’s
brother was looking at a special
website devoted to rescuing golden
retrievers -

www.dirksfund.com - and he was
stunned by what he saw…. a
picture of Cujo! He quickly alerted
Noreen and she checked the website. It was Cujo, the heart-shaped
patch was there all right.
It was unmistakable!
Noreen immediately contacted
Bob Tillay, the president of
dirksfund. He told her that Cujo
had somehow turned up in
Colombia, 150 miles from
St. Louis. He had been living in the
home of an elderly woman. When
this woman entered a nursing
home, the dog was sent to the
Central Missouri Humane Society
in Colombia. There he was going
to be put to death because of his
age.
“When we heard about this
dog, we had him brought to
St. Louis, where our vet fixed him
up. He was in a sad state - with
ears infected so badly that he
could hardly hear. His coat was
matted and he had a broken toe.
We put him on our website so he
could be adopted into a good
home.” Bob Tillay says.

Faithful Kayla, who had kept the
dream alive for years, reminded
the family. “I told you he’d come
back!”

A thrilled Noreen wasted no
time. She says: “As soon as we

baby back. He wagged his tail and
licked our hands like old times!”

Op een chatsite staat de volgende vraag:
‘Do you and your mates copy each other’s schoolwork or do you always do it on
your own? Is copying stealing, cheating, or is it somehow OK?’
Wie vindt dat overschrijven moet kunnen?
A Adam
B Lorna
C Amy
D George
My friend Sam copies my work all the time and it is annoying to know I’m being
watched. I think copying is wrong as you will be unable to copy in your GCSEexams1) so you should try to work independently to get used to it.
Adam
Lots of people copy other people’s work, and although it’s tempting, you
shouldn’t do it because you will not learn. It is better to learn from your mistakes
than to copy someone else’s and never learn what you did wrong.
Lorna
Copying will stop yourself from learning and the information is not going in.
My friend copied off me and in the end we both got into trouble.
Amy
If you are stuck and desperately need some help, then it’s not really such a
problem. I often ask my friends for help, but only copy the answer once
I understand what is being asked. That way you’re learning something as well.

Schrijf drie dingen op waarom zij boos is.
I was so mad when I found out
that Mandy, a girl in my class,
was having a party on the same
day as I was having mine. But
she did something I'll never
forget. A week before my party
everyone showed up at my house
and I was confused why. Then
I found out that the other hostess
had sent emails to everyone
saying my party was going to be
this week instead!

"THE WORST PARTY OF THE

McDonald's is trying out a plan that
allows employees to share their job
with others. The Family Contract
allows husbands, wives, grandparents
and children over 16 to job-share and
swap shifts without notifying the
management. The first family to sign
up were Rita Cross, 42, and her two
daughters Laura, 18, and Natalie, 16,
in Cardiff. Rita said the main
advantage of the arrangement was its
flexibility. "We get up in the morning
and decide which of us really wants to
go to work," she said. "I'd love my
husband to join up too, so that we can
all plan our work and family life as one
unit."
Under the contract, which is the
first of its kind in Britain, each worker
clocks on and is paid separately
through his or her own bank account.
It is being tried in six cities around
Britain. If the scheme proves
successful, McDonald's says it will
expand it to include friends and
extended family such as cousins and
grandparents.
4
David Fairhurst, of McDonald's UK,
said: "A lot of our staff wanted more
flexibility. Many are students at college
and they have very different term
hours and holiday hours.
Many older staff have children and
prefer to work during school hours. So
we decided to offer our personnel
flexibility in a family context."
McDonald's, which has 67,000 staff in
1,250 British restaurants, said they
hope that flexible working will help to
reduce the number of sick days in
future.
Neil Gouldson, a law expert, said
contracts like this could be
troublesome. “Instead of training one
family member, companies will have to
train every member who has signed
the contract. This is extremely
expensive and there’s a danger that
training will be incomplete and service
levels could drop as a result.” He also
said that the engaging of new
personnel would become more
complicated. “Interviewing an entire
family will take a lot of time,” Gouldson
warned.

Wat houdt het nieuwe plan van McDonald’s in? (alinea 1)

zorgen.

Wat gaat McDonald’s doen als het nieuwe plan succes heeft? (alinea 2)

Man with no arms
carries on driving
A New Zealand man with no arms who
was accused of dangerous driving will be
allowed to remain behind the wheel after
police dropped charges against him.
Colin Smith, 31, who was born without
arms, will be required to drive a modified
car in future.
He argued that he had driven for years
using one foot to steer and the other to
work the accelerator and brake pedals.
A police officer stopped him for
speeding near the North Island city of
Tauranga in March and was amazed to
discover him reclined in his seat, driving
with his feet.

For her new album cover, Beyoncé only agreed to

“The first alligator they got was 13 feet long,”
Beyoncé says. “They were like, ‘He’s fine. He just
ate.’ But then I saw his trainer, who had stitches
and a bloody head. I said, ‘No thank you, we’ll just
have to add the photo in
production.’ But I did hold
a baby one. He was really
cute, but since his
mouth was taped, he

Op een chatsite geven jongeren tips over het meedoen aan de auditie voor het
TV programma Pop Idol.
Æ Wie geeft een tip over het leren van teksten? Schrijf de naam op.
WHAT ARE YOUR TOP
AUDITION TIPS?
My tip is: just have fun! Plus, remember that although there are thousands of
people auditioning, someone has to get picked. It could be you.
Sarah, 20, Rochdale
I think you should wear clothes that stand out. And if the judges send you away,
it’s not the end of the world.
Samantha, 17, Rochdale
Speak up loud with a smile on your face. Being quiet and looking at the floor
won’t get you anywhere. The chances are that the judges are looking for a
confident, interested person.
Mark, 14, Gravesend
Don’t think about the big day too much. The night before the audition get lots of
sleep. It’s not a good thing to turn up with bags under your eyes. And get a
bottle of water with you!
Daniel, 15, Battle
My best friend and I went to Pop Idol. We had to queue for hours in the cold, so
my tip is to be patient and wear warm clothes.
Melissa, 18, Bedford
Practise your lyrics a lot, but don’t try to do it all at once. Also the night before,
just let yourself relax, don’t worry you know your lyrics.
Emily, 16, London
The best auditioning tip I could give is to sing with emotion. And, if necessary,
pretend no-one else is watching you. It really helps a lot!

Buster Martin, Britain’s oldest
worker is someone who’s NOT
looking forward to retirement even though he’s 100 years old!
He insists he’s perfectly happy to
spend his golden years working
hard as a mechanic, helping to
maintain and clean 100 vans for a
plumbing business, though he did
take a day off recently to celebrate
his 100th birthday.
“Boredom is the big killer of
men,” says Buster, who tried
retiring three years ago but after a
few months got bored and found a
part-time job at Pimlico Plumbers.
“I like to be active, it saves you
sitting in a wheelchair. If I didn’t
work I would become the most
miserable sod you have ever come
across!”

Buster married at age 14 and
got 17 children. He has more than
70 grandkids and great-grandkids,
served in World War II and lives in
London, with few modern
conveniences outside a TV. “I’ve
never owned a phone in my life
and I never will,” he says.
And don’t expect to see him
travelling overseas, where “you
spend a lot of money to do the
same things you do at home.” Says
Martin: “I‘m living a holiday here.
I wake up every morning and am
happy in what I do.”
Buster hopes to carry on
working until he’s 125. His boss
Charlie Mullins said: “We have
quite a few old workers as I see
experience as a big advantage.
I know I’ll never see a dirty van
with Buster on the case. Buster is
a lot of fun, he’s quite a character
who’s got a million stories!”

BICYCLE BELL ALERT
The Government plans to bring in a new law saying every bicycle must have a
bell and every cyclist must use it to alert pedestrians to their presence.
Those found guilty of riding without a bell will face on-the-spot fines, with
maximum penalties of up to £2,500 or two years in jail.
Graeme Obree, the Scottish world record-holding cyclist, called the new law a
‘pointless exercise’. He said: ”If a cyclist is about to hit a pedestrian, he’s not
going to hit a bell - he’s going to shout. What policeman is going to enforce a
law like this? Only civil servants could come up with crazy ideas like this.”

4 De eigenaar van de roze Nissan Figaro zette de auto opnieuw te koop.
Bought a car on eBay
A three-year-old boy from Lincoln used his mother’s computer to buy a £8,999
car on the internet auction site eBay. Jack Neal’s parents discovered their son’s
successful bid when they received a congratulations message from the website
about a Barbie-pink Nissan Figaro.
Rachel, 36, said:”We didn’t understand what was happening. Neither of us had
bought anything. So we checked and saw it was a Barbie-pink car which we had
bought for £8,999. We flew into a panic!” Mrs Neal thought she had left her
eBay password in her computer. “Jack is a real whizz on the PC and had
probably pressed all the right buttons.”
Her husband John, 37, called the owner of the car and explained the mistake.
“Luckily he saw the funny side and said he would re-advertise,” Mrs Neal added.
The car, which has a 1 litre turbo-charged engine, is available on eBay at a
starting price of £7,999.

I find that when you play violent games it gives you the chance to place your
anger on the game, so you feel calmer.

Adults just think we are stupid and can’t tell what’s real and what’s not! It annoys
Ben, 15, Torquay
me.
I think Grand Theft Auto 3 is a bit of harmless fun. Some adults think that after
playing GTA3 we are going to go out and start crime. I think GTA3 is a great
Becky, 16, Birmingham
game and soooo much fun!
Kids ain’t stupid. They ain’t gonna be so thick that they copy things out of violent
games. People who do copy these things need help and that means that it’s
obvious that most kids (not all) are sensible with stuff like this.
Amanda, 15, Preston
I don’t understand how anyone would want to play violent computer games.
They inspire young people to start getting into crime. And why on earth people
think that a violent game will keep them calm I just can’t understand.
Laura, 14, Stubbington
I love violent games because if I have had a stressful day I can take it out on the
games and you figure out that you shouldn’t do violent things in real life.
