ПАЗЯЗЯ Task 1.
Read the passage and decide whether the statements 1–5 are True or False.

Back to school!

Yes, school has begun again! Every year you have to go back and face all that hard work again.
That’s fine when you enjoy a lesson, but it can be a problem if there are subjects you don’t like. We
spoke to some young students who told us which lessons they were fond of or didn’t like.
Jenny, 13, says. ‘My favourite subject is English. We all have to learn English in my country because it
is very difficult to find a job if you don’t know it. I started learning English in a language school when I was
seven. In the beginning, the lessons were easy. We learnt words and easy grammar – you know, the present
simple and the present continuous. Now I’m in intermediate class and the course we are doing is quite difficult.
I am good at English, but I think this year I’ll have to work harder.’
Lorenzo, 14, says. ‘Of course, my favourite lesson is the break! No, what I mean really is that I don’t
like a lot of the subjects we do. I’m not very fond of French, of English. I think learning foreign languages takes
a lot of time and you have to revise too often. If you don’t, it’s very easy to forget what you have learnt. Maths
is okay – sometimes. I really like PE and my new geography teacher is great – she tells some good jokes – so
our lessons are fun this year. I wish all my teachers were like her.’
Victor, 14 says. ‘Last year I thought school was boring. I looked at my timetable each day and thought.
‘Oh, no!’ I did badly in my English exam and my report at the end of the year wasn’t very good, so my mum
was angry. Anyway, this year I’ve decided to try harder. My best friend, Nick, who I sit next to in English
lessons, says he’ll help me with any difficult exercises and that we’re going to do lots of revision together.’
