CHATUCHAK WEEKEND MARKET
 With more than 15,000 shops and 200,000 visitors every Saturday and Sunday, Bangkok’s
Chatuchak Weekend Market is a popular place with visitors to Thailand. You can find plants,
flowers, music, jewelry, clothes, food, and even animals!
The market is a great place to find bargains, and prices are generally low. Most people
bargain, but some don’t, so don’t worry if you don’t want to bargain. Just go with a friendly smile
and have enough cash in your pocket. There are ATMs for cash, but they are difficult to find, and
many vendors don’t take credit cards. The market is huge, and many people walk in circles, even
with a map. Don’t try to see it all in one day!
The market is open from 8:00 to 6:00 Saturday and Sunday. It’s good to get there early,
before it gets too busy. Wear light, comfortable clothing and bring a bottle of water. And for
lunch, try some of Thailand’s famous snacks, such as fried scorpions!
The market is very easy to get to. It’s only a five-minute walk from Mo Chit Station on

I. Read the text below and choose one correct answer for each question.
Two years ago, high school students Michael Pinsky and David Connor read an article in a
newspaper about a school in Harlem, a neighborhood in New York City. The school had a baseball
team, but no money to buy balls, team uniforms, or other equipment.
Michael and David had an idea. They decided to help the team get money for the equipment
they needed. So the two boys started a project to raise money for the baseball team. They called
the project "Home Runs for Harlem." They placed boxes in stores to collect money for the team
and sold bracelets with the words "Home Runs for Harlem" on them. Their plan was to give all
the money they collected to the school to support the team.
Michael and David's project was a great success. They raised over $9,000. The team bought
the equipment they needed: gloves, baseballs, and bats. The school also used some of the money
to pay a baseball coach.
After the school in Harlem received the money, Michael and David spoke to the students at
the school, and David explained why this was a dream come true. "It's not just about me," he says.
"It's for other people. It's for the community.
"I just hope they have a fun time playing baseball, and if they can have the equipment, then
that just helps out," says David. David and Michael now plan to raise money for other baseball
teams in Harlem.
For their passionate and inspiring efforts to support school baseball programs, the two
teenagers were New Yorkers of the Week on one of New York's news stations.
