Living in the country is something that people from the city often dream about. However, in reality, it has both its advantages and disadvantages.
There are certainly many advantages to living in the country. First of all, you can enjoy peace and quiet. Moreover, people tend to be friendlier and more open. A further advantage is that there is less traffic, so it is safer for young children.
However, there are certain drawbacks to life outside the city. Firstly , because there are fewer people, you are likely to have fewer friends. In addition, entertainment is difficult to find, particularly in the evening. Furthermore, the fact that there are fewer shops and services means that it is harder to find work. As a result , you may have to travel a long way to work, which can be extremely expensive.
In conclusion, it can be seen that the country is more suitable for some people than others.On the whole , it is often the best place for those who are retired or who have young children. In contrast , young, single people who have a career are better provided for in the city.

There are 10 mistakes in the following passage. Identify the mistakes and write the corrections in the corresponding numbered boxes.

Stress is often called the(the -->a) 21st century illness, but it has always been with us perhaps with different names. Those days we often consider stress is necessary evil of modern life. However, stress is not negetive and without it we will certainly not enjoy some of the highpoints in life just as the anticipation before a date or the tension leading up to an important match. All these situations produce stress, but if you can control it and not the other way round you will feel stimulated, not worn out. Like these situations, which are generally positive but easier to deal with, sitting in a train that is late, being struck in a traffic jam, working to a tight deadline is much harder to manage and control. Stress is now recognized as a nedical problem and as a significant factor in causing coronary heart disease, high blooded pressure and high cholesterol count. The fact is that patients are often willing to admit to stress problems because they feel they are a form of society failure and it is important that symptoms should be identified in order to avoid unnecessary sufferings. So why should we be looking out for as danger singals? Some common signs of stress are increased tiredness, irritability and the inability to solve certain situations.

Read the passage and complete the tasks that follow.

Black Friday is the Friday which follows Thanksgiving Day. Black Friday is celebrated in the United States as an official beginning of the Christmas shopping season. On the day, most shops open extremely early and offer promotional sales to boost the consumption, which is similar to Boxing Day after Christmas Day in Britain and many Commonwealth nations. For years, it was quite usual for retailers to open their shops at 6:00 a.m., but in the late 2000s many opened at 5:00 a.m. or even 4:00 a.m. The year 2011 witnessed a new extreme when several retailers opened at midnight. For non-retailer employees, they may have a day off work or choose to take a day from their annual leave on Black Friday. Some use this to make trips to see family members or friends who live in other areas or to go on vacation. Others use it to start shopping for the Christmas season. Black Friday is not a federal holiday, but is a public holiday in California and some other states in the United States.

Black Friday, to the police, is not a term of endearment. The name of the day originated in Philadelphia where it was first used by the Police Department to describe massive traffic jams and over-crowded sidewalks as the downtown stores were mobbed from opening to closing. Nowadays, Black Friday crowds that are hunting for bargains still give the police headaches. However, retailers do not appreciate the negative connotation associated with Black Friday. Therefore, there exists another explanation as to why it is called Black Friday. As they might put it, the term Black Friday came from an old way of recording business accounts: losses were recorded in red ink and profits in black ink. Therefore, an alternative explanation was made that retailers traditionally operated at a financial loss, or "in the red", from January through November, and "Black Friday" indicates the point where retailers begin to turn a profit, or get "in the black". It goes without saying that Black Friday positively means a profitable Friday to the retail industry.

Decide whether the following statements are True or False.

Black Friday and Boxing Day are celebrated on the same day.

A. True

B. False

What is good writing for children?
The children’s publishers will tell you they look for ‘good writing’. What exactly do they mean?

Before you send a story you have written to any publisher at all, your severest critic ought to be you vourself. To have a chance of succeeding in the competitive market of children’s fiction, you should constantly be aware, every single time you sit down at your word-processor, of the need to produce ‘good, original writing’. A difficult task, maybe, but one which hopefully we will help you to achieve.

To begin with, let us try to pin down exactly what publishers mean when they talk about ‘good writing’ for children. A useful starting point would be to take a look at some of the children’s books which won literary prizes last year. Reading these books is one of the easiest and most enjoyable ways of: (a) finding out what individual publishers are publishing at the moment, and (b) learning a few tricks of the trade from well-established professionals. It goes without saying, of course, that slavishly copying the style and subject matter of a successful author is usually a recipe for disaster. Nor should you become downhearted after reading a particularly brilliant piece of work, and miserably think you will never be able to match up to those standards. Remember, overnight success is rare - most successful children’s authors will have struggled long and hard to learn their trade. Read these books as a critic; note down the things you enjoyed or admired, as well as areas where you feel there was possibly room for improvement. After all, nobody is perfect, not even a successful, prize-winning author.

Possibly the toughest challenge is right at the youngest end of the age range - the picture book. The would-be author/ illustrator is attempting to create an exciting story out of the narrow, limited, everyday world of a young child’s experience - not easy at all. The whole storyline has to be strong enough to keep the reader turning the pages, yet simple enough to fit into a few pages. Another problem for the new picture-book author is that it can seem that every subject and every approach has been done to death, with nothing new left to say. Add to this the fact that printing costs are high because of full colour illustrations, which means that the publisher will probably want a text that suits the international market to increase sales, and a novel for ten-year olds, with hardly any pictures at all, starts to look much more inviting.

You would be forgiven for wondering if there are any truly original plots left to impress publishers with. But remember that, in many ways, it is the writer’s own personal style, and intelligent handling of a subject that can change a familiar, overworked plot into something original and fresh. To illustrate this, read The Enchanted Horse by Magdalen Nabb. A young girl called Irina finds an old wooden horse in a junk shop, takes it home and treats it as if it was real. Soon it magically starts to come to life ... Sounds familiar? The magic object that comes alive is a storyline that has been used in hundreds of other children’s stories. So why does it succeed here? The answer is that Magdalen Nabb has created a strong, believable character in the lonely, unhappy heroine Irina, and the descriptions of her relationship with the wooden horse are poetic and touching.

So, to return to the question asked at the beginning: What exactly is ‘good writing’ for children? The answer is that it is writing which is fresh, exciting and unpredictable, and which gives a new and original angle on what might be a well- worn subject. But do not be put off if you feel that you simply cannot match up to all these requirements. While there is obviously no substitute for talent, and the ability to come up with suitable ideas, many of the techniques for improving and polishing your manuscript can be learned.
