A Picnic
Last Sunday we went (0) to a Picnic at Pantai Timur. It was a sunny day
and there (9) was many people. We saw some (10) child flying their kites and
playing volleyballs. After we found a place to put our things, my sister and I
jumped into the sea while my mother was (11) watched. The water was
warm and it was nice to swim. After an hour, we felt (12) hungrily. We went
back to the beach (13) or ate the delicious food my mother prepared. We
finished all the fried noodle and chicken wings. Also, we (14) have fun singing
and chatting together after that. One of the most exciting (15) thing there
was to feed the birds with our bread. We had a lot of fun laughing together. I
think it was the (16) good day of the year.

TEEN DAYS OUT in the UK
Blue Planet Aquarium
If you’re aged 8 – 15, like sharks and are good at
swimming , this is the place for you. I always swimming
on Saturdays, but this weekend I’m not going to the
sports centre. After a diving lesson at the aquarium ,
I’m going swimming with real sharks! The sharks aren’t
very big and they aren’t dangerous. But your friends
won’t know that! Visiting the aquarium is quite
expensive, but it’s a good idea for a birthday present.
#Teen rating
Magic Unicorn Theme Park “Jack, 13, Stafford”
Unicorns are magical animals from legends,
but this theme park isn’t very magical. The
riders and rollercoasters are OK, but nothing
special. The only bit my friends and I like is the
Magic Spell Academy, where they teach you to
do magic tricks. We’re not really enjoying our
trip!
#Teen rating Beamish, The living museum of the North
“Daniel, 14, Glasgow” Beamish is a ‘living’ museum. Instead of
looking at old things, I’m actually
experiencing life in the past! You can have a
lesson at the village school, buy things in the
old-fashioned shops and learn how to cook
traditional food. I usually hate museums, but
Beamish is different!
#Teen rating
Giant Swing Adrenaline Quarry “Daisy, 14, Durham”
This isn’t like swings you find in children’s
playgrounds. It’s very high and scary! I didn’t think
this would be so much fun, its better than a
rollercoaster! You feel as if you are flying! The only
problem is that it doesn’t last very long.

My best friend
Friends are important to us. We do not need too many friends but a
few great friends makes a huge difference in our lives. I have such a good
friend in my life. Her name is Lily and we go to the same school. Although we
are the same age, we do not learn in the same class. Her class is one floor
below mine because we have different interests in studies. I love science and
she loves history.
Lily has a good sense of humour. She always makes me smile when I am
down. She sometimes makes jokes that I can laugh so hard my stomach hurts.
She is the most hardworking person I know and she is never selfish in sharing
what she knows. Her knowledge in world history is amazing. She dreams to
become a history journalist one day.
Lily and I live in the same neighbourhood. Every morning, we take the
school bus together to go to school. Sometimes, my mother would make two
packed meals to give one to Lily. We would eat together during the school
break. I can eat a lot. So when Lily cannot finish her meal I would be the first to
take her food. She always jokes that I might become a teddy bear if I keep
eating so much.
Another reason Lily and I become so close is because we share the
same love for netball. We both play for the school netball team and we train
three times a week after school. Lily is recently chosen as the team captain.
Coach likes that she is a fair person. One time I was late for training, she made
me run five rounds around the court as punishment even though we are close
friends. Besides, she trains hard and always communicate with us during
games.
I am grateful because I have a good friend. Lily has been like a sister to
me. I cannot imagine my life without her.

My school had a new volleyball coach and I attended their training
recently. On my first day of training, our coach talked about the sport and its
rules. We were divided into two teams. 35 Between us, there was a
net about a few metres high. Each team tried to score points by trying to get the
ball to touch the floor in the opponents’ court. We played hard but it was obvious
we needed more training.
I enjoyed the first day of training and it was great working out with other
team members. Coach Jackson even spoke to me personally. 36 He
also said that my height would definitely be an advantage in this sport. He
wanted me to give it a shot in the school volleyball team. 37
I have talked to my parents about this and they encourage me to go for it.
My mother thinks this could be a great opportunity to gain new experience and
make new friends. 38 I want to see how far I can go with this. Plus, I
have always been a fan of sports. 39 I might not have enough time for
my homework and revision once I start training with the group.
Instead of giving up, I spent some time doing research on how to manage
my time better. I found out my answers. 40 And if I follow my timetable
and do things the right way, I will be fine. I think this will be a good experience
for me.

PAPER 2
PART 1
Hi Razif,
From all the hobbies you have mentioned. I think I love to do chores, such as be a
kitchen helper and house cleaner. I like to help my mom and sometimes my mom
give me cash for the things that I have done for her. Anyway in the same time I
can make my own saving. I think, there is nothing wrong with these jobs. The
good thing about it is that it is easy to find hobby like that. Maybe it is tiring for
you. However, helping your mom is the best thing that you can do especially
whenever she got sick and you can do the chores without her supervision. It is
because you already used to it. That’s all from me. See you soon.
Jake
PART 2
A person’s habits show who they really are. Many successful people like
Barack Obama, Michael Jordan, and Lee Chong Wei all have many good habits.
These habits are great examples for us to learn from. Here, I want to talk about a
good habit that I have always had with me since I was a little girl.
I always get up early in the morning even when I do not have school. My
mother is the person who taught me this. She always says if we wake up early,
we have more time to do more things and I believe in that too. When I have
school, I will get up early and make sure I have time to eat my breakfast. This will
allow me to focus better during classes. When it is holidays, I will wake up early
to help my mother with her house chores.
Besides, I also realise if I wake up early, I can spend my morning reading
and doing homework. In the afternoon, I will have plenty of time to go out and do
some outdoor activities. I feel healthier and less stressful after exercising.
I think it is important for all of us to have good habits. I recommend everyone to
try waking up early. You will feel that you have more time than the others and you
can do more things than other people. If you have not tried it, try it today!

I Love Chocolate!
Are you a chocoholic? I am a person who is very fond of chocolates and I eat a lot of it. Chocolate
is said to be the most popular food of all time. People nowadays eat chocolates in many different
forms. We eat chocolate candy, and we drink hot and cold chocolate drinks. The chocolate we eat
today is made from a lot of different ingredients, but the most important ingredient is cacao bean.
The story of cacao bean and its long journey to stores and supermarkets all over the world started
hundreds of years ago in Mexico. Cacao trees need hot and humid weather and they originally
grew in the Yucatán Peninsula.
The Maya were the first people to eat cacao beans. They picked cacao beans from wild trees and
cleared land to cultivate their own trees. They made a drink from cacao beans and exchanged the
beans for other goods. They also used cacao beans for religious ceremonies.
Mayan merchants travelled north and introduced cacao beans to the Aztec people. Soon the cacao
bean was part of the Aztecs´ lives. They also used it as a drink, as part of religious ceremonies and
even as money. With 10 beans, they could buy a rabbit. With 100 beans, they could buy a slave.
The Aztecs could not grow cacao trees because of the dry climate. When the Aztecs conquered
the Maya, they asked for cacao beans as a tribute.

PART 4
Read the text below and answer questions 25 - 34.
THE ROCKET FESTIVAL
There is only a little rain falls in Northeast Thailand, even during the rainy season. The
villagers need rain to grow rice. So every year they have a rocket festival. They believe that if
they fire rockets into the sky, rain will fall.
The rockets are very big, much bigger than ordinary fireworks. The men in the villages
make the rockets themselves. They work in groups. Each group tries to make the biggest rocket.
The day of the rocket festival is very exciting. It is a holiday for whole village.
The girls wear their best silk sarongs and dance along the road through the village. Then
everybody goes to a field nearby and waits for the men to fire the rockets. They all watch to
see which rocket will go the highest. Only a few men stand near the rockets when they fire
them, because it is quite dangerous.
The men whose rockets go up the highest are very pleased. They have made the best
rocket, and maybe the villagers will have rain to grow their rice. But the men with least
successful rockets and do not go up as high as the other rockets, are not pleased. The villagers
take these men and throw them into a muddy pond!
