More than 120 people were made
homeless in the south west of
England yesterday when floods
destroyed their homes.
Heavy rain had fallen over the area
for three days. Homes and shops were
flooded and many people spent the
night in schools and local community
centres. The emergency services
rescued at least 60 people from their
homes and cars.
One unhappy shop keeper said ‘I
can’t open my shop. It’ll take me
weeks to clean it and replace the
things that are broken. We have
PHOTOCOPIABLE © Pearson Education Limited 2015
floods every year, but we’ve never
had one this bad before.’
This morning, people were going
back to their homes to start cleaning
up. But around 50 homes were very
badly damaged. It will be a long time
before the owners can return to live in
their homes.

Dear Mr Dibbley
I am writing to you regarding the
advertisement for cabin crew on
space trips to the Moon. I would like
to submit an application for the post.
Please find my CV attached.
I am 25 years old, single and in
excellent health. For the last two
years, I have worked as a member of
the cabin crew of Fly Galaxy airlines.
This has given me hands-on
experience of working with
passengers, and helping them to relax
and feel comfortable. I have always
been interested in space travel and
used to dream of flying to the Moon
when I was a girl.
If you require any further
information, or would like to arrange
an interview, please call me on 284
6735 or email me at
denta2001@odyssey.com. I look
forward to hearing from you at your
earliest convenience.
Yours sincerely,

One of the most memorable moments
in my life was when I left for my
university year abroad. On the day of
my flight to Guatemala, my parents
came with me to the airport to say
goodbye. Although I had travelled a
lot in Europe, this was going to be the
first time I had lived abroad or been
to Central America. I had no idea of
what life in Guatemala would be like
for me, so it was exciting but
frightening at the same time. The
actual moment that is the most
memorable for me on this day is
when I had to say goodbye to my

control. We’d spent all morning
together and were laughing as usual
but suddenly our emotions changed.
We tried to keep it happy but all cried
when we hugged each other goodbye.
We were all wondering how a year
apart would feel.

I was never very good at running long
distances when I was at school so
running a half-marathon was a huge
challenge for me. I wanted to
complete this race because I was
raising money for charity and my
brother was also doing it. So, I
decided to enrol for it and began
preparing. I started going for short
runs every morning and I soon felt
that running a longer distance was
achievable. I began to realise how
much fitter I was becoming and how
running 15 miles at the weekend was
better than any diet. Running a half-
marathon is not easy to begin with,
but it was very satisfying to know
that when race day came I could do it
without stopping. I’ve achieved a lot
personally and I raised over £1000
for charity because of that race. I now
want to enter more races and work up
to doing a complete marathon next
year.

had them.
One of the main advantages is that
you can contact people at any time.
This is particularly useful if you have
children and you want to know where
they are. Texting also makes it very
easy to organise meetings with
friends at the last minute.
The problem is that, on the other
hand, it can be difficult to ignore

work-related emails and phone calls
and there is the risk of constant
interruptions. In addition, if people
drive while on their phones, they are
more likely to have an accident.
As far as I am concerned, however,
the advantages outweigh the
disadvantages. I think the mobile
phone is one of the most important
inventions of the last century.

If I could, I would choose to be
Amelia Earhart of the USA. She is
most famous for being the first
woman to fly solo across the Atlantic
Ocean, but that is not the reason I
would choose her. I admire her
because she had a lot of courage and
was not afraid to follow her dreams.
I also think she was brave and
adventurous. She learnt to fly at a
time when it was a very dangerous
activity and she worked many
different jobs at the same time in
order to earn the money needed for
her flying lessons. I admire her
determination to make her dreams
come true.
Although she was a good pilot,
unfortunately, she was not the best
aviator and did not keep up with
technology as new equipment was
developed to help direct and navigate
planes. It is easy to say that I would
do things differently but I do believe I
would have learnt how to use the
technology that was available. If she
had done that, I think she would not
have disappeared mysteriously on her
last flight.
