Teaching is a difficult job. The ultimate reward is knowing that you have the
opportunity to impact a young persons life. However, not every student is
created equally. This is a good thing. If every student were the same, teaching
would be a boring job. Some students are simply more challenging than
others for a variety of external factors. Most teachers will tell you that they
dont have favorites, but the truth is that there are students who possess
certain characteristics that make them the perfect students. It is difficult not
to embrace these students because they make your job easier.
Question: Are you one of these students ?

Reading 05
A long time ago, a little Dalmatian puppy sat outside the fence at
the school. The puppy loved watching the children play. He
wanted to play with the children, but he was very shy.
One day, the puppy followed two children home from school. He
curled up under a tree in the front yard to take a nap. Suddenly,
he woke up, and when he looked up, he saw that the children's
house was on fire. The puppy knew he needed to get help. He
ran down the street to the fire station, barking all the way.
The puppy saw the firefighters jump on their trucks and leave.
He tried to run behind them, but his little legs could not keep up.
When he got back to the house, he looked all around for the
children but could not see them. He was very worried.
Story continued 06
After the fire was out, the firefighters noticed the sad-looking
puppy shivering under a tree "Look, it's the little puppy we saw
at the station." Firefighter Janet scooped up the puppy in her
arms "Hey, little guy, where do you live?
"I know," said Firefighter Janet, "let's take him to see the family.
I'll bet he could cheer up the kids," said the firefighter. She
knocked on the door. The puppy could barely believe his eyes!
The children were safe! They hugged the puppy and he wagged
his tail.
"Do you know who this puppy belongs to?" asked the firefighter.
"He's a real hero, he ran all the way to the fire station to let us
know there was a fire at your house. Yes he is mine they cried!

Teamwork
Why is teamwork important in these activities?

All employers are keen to recruit graduates who are able to
cooperate, solve problems and work in teams. As less
hierarchical organisations have emerged with project teams,
self-managed work teams and management teams, so the
requirements to 'Get on well with people', and to 'Work with and
through others' become increasingly important.
Teamwork involves working confidently within a group,

contributing your own ideas effectively, taking a share of the
responsibility, being assertive - rather than passive or aggressive,
accepting and learning from constructive criticism and giving
positive, constructive feedback to others.

Attitudestowardsmoney 03
Whether were keenly aware of it or not we all hold typically pretty well-
ingrained attitudes toward money. We may have inherited our attitudes
toward money from our family of origin, or from financial experiences in
previous marriages or relationships, or from our own personal life
experiences. Wherever and however your attitudes toward money were
shaped, they influence your decision-making. The same is true for your
new spouse. And its very possible in fact, likely that you hold
somewhat, if not entirely, different attitudes toward money. Perhaps one of
you is fearful of running out of money while the other is more relaxed.
Maybe one of you is consistent about paying bills on time while the other
doesnt worry about late fees or not paying bills in full. You will also
probably have to deal with some of the emotional fall-out from how your
previous ex-spouses dealt with and made decisions about money.
Wordpower 04
Attitudes change because of different things!
From a teenager, to being married, having children, and getting older all

Reading Teenage feelings 05
Friends from our childhood or adolescence are special, no matter how much
time has elapsed between visits. These compelling connections are the result
of shared roots during the formative years. Our childhood friends and
teenage sweethearts experienced with us all the wonderful, horrible, boring,
and embarrassing moments that helped to make us who we are today.
Yet, when children are young, parents may regard these relationships as
insignificant. If the family must move to a new community and the children's
close friends must be left behind, so what? They will make new friends, the
parents assure them. But, is a friend as interchangeable as a new toy for an
old one, or is there more to friendship than that? Why are we so elated to
rediscover long lost friends in our adult years if, as some parents believe, they
were so dispensable to us as children?
Questions and answers: Teenage feelings 06
Do you think teenage love is important?

Do parents understand your feelings?
Have you ever been dumped, or dumped someone?
There is a very well known expression used if you have been

dumped.

When we think about teen substance abuse, our minds veer to dad's liquor
cabinet or illegal drugs. But teens are increasingly turning to home offices and
kitchen pantries to chase a high.
One recent trend is called "dusting" inhaling the fumes from computer
cleaning supplies to get high. And YouTube videos and blogs are popularising

and vanilla extract, for mind-altering purposes.

making your ideas the only sensible choice. If you advise, it tends
to be softer, guiding someone towards your ideas.

For example:
Your question suggests, you are sincere in learning.

Fashion
What is fashion? 02
Fashion is a popular style or practice,
especially in clothing, footwear,
accessories, makeup, body piercing, or
furniture. Fashion is a distinctive and often
habitual trend in the style in which a
person dresses. It is the prevailing styles in
behaviour and the newest creations of
textile designers. Because the more
technical term costume is regularly linked
to the term "fashion", the use of the
former has been relegated to special
senses like fancy dress or masquerade
wear, while "fashion" generally means
clothing, including the study of it. Although
aspects of fashion can be feminine or
masculine, some trends are androgynous.

GoingDutch
WhatdoesGoingDutchmean? 02
"Going Dutch" is a term that indicates
that each person participating in a group
activity pays for themselves, rather than
any person paying for anyone else,
particularly in a restaurant bill. It is also
called Dutch date, Dutch treat.
There are two possible senses, each
person paying his own expenses, or the
entire bill being split (divided evenly)
between all participants. In strict usage,
"Going Dutch" refers to the former,
paying one's own expenses, and the
latter is referred to as "splitting the bill",
but in casual usage these may both be
referred to as "going Dutch".

stationary acting of the Korean fare apparently contrasts pleasantly with the
endless high-octane histrionics of Latin American telenovelas. Jewel in the

Events
What are romantic events? 02
Romantic events are situations that people

feel loved, and wanted.
The human body enjoys these events.
It can be triggered by different situations,
or even by just a few words too!
Everyone is an individual, so they vary
greatly.

Understanding romance
Cute Things 03
Teddy bears are romantic. Puppies are romantic. Cherubic baby archers are
romantic. Those photographs where two little kids exhibit an unnatural affection
for each other and only the roses are in color are romantic.
Low Light
Candles are romantic. Sunrises and sunsets are romantic. Any kind of low light,
you see, is romantic, hence why dinner dates after dark are more romantic than
lunch dates at noon. Combine low light sources, and it stands to reason that the
air of romance will be so thick, your beloved will be blind to anything else but the
radiance of her shimmering knight in armor.
Red
Red is romantic, because red is the color of love and passion. Consider roses. Red
roses mean, "I love you." Yellow roses mean, "Let's just be friends," which is
synonymous with, "You are irritating, and I hate you." So you do not want to be
wrong. Get her red roses.
Background Music
Background music is romantic, and note the word "background, because not just
any music is romantic. For music to be romantic, it must be too soft to hear. Also,
it may not be lively or funny or good. Elevator music is the most romantic genre of
music out there.

Some examples of "think of":
A: "What did you think of Mary Jones's speech?"
B: "I didn't think much of it."
A is asking B's opinion on Mary Jones's speech. B replies that she did not
think it was a very good speech.
In other contexts, to think of something means you're at least aware of

think about something this normally implies more focused or extended
attention.
"I never thought of doing that!" (that possibility never crossed my mind).
"Have you thought about my birthday present?" (have you

You can use body language with parts of your body!
What situations do you use these in?

Eye contact. Some of the most powerful and successful business leaders in
the world are known for the impressions they make during face-to-face
meetings. Their gaze never wavers from the eyes of the person they are
speaking with, making them feel as if they are the most important person in
the room. With a little practice, anyone can do this.
Are you making good eye contact throughout the conversation? Or are you
looking behind the person to see who else is in the room?
Arm movement. If you are speaking to someone and your arms are in a
position that gives even a subliminal hint that youre not interested, youre
not going to give off a positive impression.
What are your arms doing? Are they folded, signifying boredom, or tucked
behind your back, indicating interest?
Your stance. Make an effort to stand in a manner that is open and
welcoming, rather than blocking people out of your conversation. Are you
leaning on something, as if bored or tired? Are you unable to shake hands
because youre juggling a plateful of food!

fungicides, herbicides, and insecticides. These chemicals are widely used in
conventional agriculture and residues remain on (and in) the food we eat.
Organic food is often fresher. Fresh food tastes better. Organic food is usually
fresher because it doesnt contain preservatives that make it last longer.
Organic produce is often (but not always, so watch where it is from) produced
on smaller farms near where it is sold.

To say that information goes in one ear and comes out the other means that
it is immediately forgotten or ignored.

Reading: Corporate welfare 06
Politicians and pundits talk about welfare as if its solely cash given to people.
Hardly ever discussed is corporate welfare: the grants and subsidies, the
contracts and cut-price loans that government hands over to business. Yet
some of our biggest companies and industries operate a business model that
depends on them extracting money from the British taxpayer. The operators of
our supposedly privatised train services are kept afloat by billions in public
money. Or take the firm created by billionaire Jeff Bezos: last year it emerged
that Amazon had paid less in corporation tax to the UK than it had received in
government grants.
Name two corporate benefits?
Who is Jeff Bezos?

Delaying
Retirement
What is retirement? 02
Retirement is the point where a person stops employment completely. A
person may also semi-retire by reducing work hours.
Many people choose to retire when they are eligible for private or public
pension benefits, although some are forced to retire when physical conditions
no longer allow the person to work any longer (by illness or accident) or as a
result of legislation concerning their position
Vocabulary around retirement 03
Pension. This is money saved through a scheme to enable you to receive
money when you retire. The age of retirement differs from country to
country.
What age can you retire in China?
Semi-retire. When you semi-retire it means you cut down the hours you
work. For example the average working week in England is 40 hours. If you
retire, this is reduced to 20. It gives you more time to relax at home.
What age would you like to retire?
If you delay retirement it means you continue to work. Many working people
find this better because they find being at home a Little boring.
Word power 04
Things you can do when retired. Lets discuss.
Discuss each option above, and think of more.

Reading Delaying retirement 05
Postponing your retirement typically means more money for a more

comfortable retirement. Working longer will help you put away more money
for retirement. If you work a few more years, you'll not only add to your
existing savings, but you'll avoid spending the money you've already saved in
the meantime.
You may live longer than you think. According to the National Center for
Health Statistics, out of all 65-year-olds in America today, about 1 in 4 will live
to age 90. For the average 65-year-old couple living in America today, you can
double the odds that at least one will live to age 90. With many people living
into their 90s, savings often need to last a long time after retirement.
Questions and answers 06
Lets answer some question on the previous slide!

What advantages are there to delaying retirement?
How many people statistically live to 90 in America?
Ask the teacher time

What age would you retire?
What is the retirement age in your country?
Do you think saving for the future is important?
