My Job at a Summer Camp, by Charlie Rose

Every year I work at a summer camp for kids and I really enjoy seeing the children do things they never thought they could do. Nearly all the kids know how to swim and play table-tennis before they come, but things like rock climbing are new experiences for most. Some of them are very nervous, but after a bit of encouragement, they agree to try and they all get to the top in the end, which makes them feel great.

The kids stay several weeks and some do miss home. You might expect it to be the really young ones who feel like that the most but it’s actually the ten- to thirteen-year-olds. We don’t let them use their mobile phones all the time. First we tell them they can phone home after lunch. Then when they ask again, usually after dinner, we say it’s a bit too late to phone and suggest doing it the next day. Most children are fine in a couple of days and at the end of their stay, it’s amazing how many come and thanks us because they have had a great time.

It’s not just the children who get lonely. We get parents who are on the phone the whole time, asking how their child is getting on, which is quite unnecessary. Often their son or daughter will be busy, playing games or doing something else, so we have to tell parents to ring back another time.

Some kids arrive dressed in smart, designer, new clothes and they sometimes argue when we tell them to change into something they won’t mind getting dirty, but before long they realise what we mean.

1. What does the writer enjoy about working at a summer camp? *

A. Watching the kids leave camp.

B. Watching the kids try new things.

C. Watching the kids interact with each other.

2. What new experience do the kids learn at the camp? *

A. Rock Climbing

B. Table Tennis

C. Swimming

3. How does the writer feel about the younger children at the camp? *

A. He wishes they tried more new things.

B. He thinks they ring home too much.

C. He’s surprised that they don’t miss home.

4. What does the writer mean when he says the children should change into something they don’t mind getting dirty? *

A. They should change into old clothes.

B. They should change into nice clothes.

C. They should change into better clothes.

5. What does the writer think about some parents? *

A. They shouldn't allow their children to bring phones to camp.

B. They don't need to keep on phoning the camp.

C. They should visit their children instead of phoning them.

I have twin brothers, Tim and Tom. They are very similar and a lot of people don’t know which is which. They both have blond hair and blue eyes, and they always wear jeans and T-shirts.

Life is sometimes hard as our work depends heavily on the weather. When it is not harvest time, the men of the village go fishing from early morning and don t return until late afternoon. By the time they return, most of the village women will be waiting for them on the river bank. They wait to buy the fish, which they will later sell at the local market or bring to the nearby town for a higher price. We children will be there too. We love running around the beach and waiting for the boats to come in. Our most important festival of the year is the Chol Chnam Thmay, which celebrates the New Year. It falls mid April. Every family tries to prepare well for the festive activities.
