CONTOH
A You have learned to make bookmarks from old greetings cards. You want to tell your mate about it.

Hi Carrie,
It’s very easy to make bookmarks from recycled materials. Many things lying around the house can be used to
make these bookmarks. All you need are old greetings cards, for example, a birthday card or a festive one, a
pencil, an eraser, a pair of scissors, some crayons and some silken threads or tassels.
Firstly, take the greetings card and on the inside, draw a picture on it. You may draw a carrot or an
aubergine or any other fruit or vegetable. Then, cut the card in the same shape. Remember to use a greetings
card that is made of thick paper. This is to ensure that the bookmark does not fold easily. Next, use the crayons
to colour the plain side of the card. When you turn the bookmark over, there is an attractive or colourful
pattern on the other side too. Finally, punch a hole at the top middle part of the picture. Weave the silken
thread or tassels through this hole to decorate the bookmark.
Sometimes the simplest craft ideas are real winners. Making your own bookmarks is full of fun and you
can be as creative as you like. They are great page markers for larger picture books and they make lovely
handmade gifts.
Give it a try!
Bye.
Elly

B Draw six pictures to explain to your mate the procedure for making a bookmark from an old
greetings card in the correct order.

C You want to make another craft using upcycled materials at home. Get your parents/ guardian to
help you make this craft successful.

Make a fun egg carton train/ Make cute little dinosaurs from toilet rolls/ Design your own board
game from a cereal box/ Make a mini banjo from old jar lids and loom bands/ Recycle plastic lids
into a sparkly suncatcher mobile/ Make an egg carton fire engine (Accept any ideas)

You are going to read a text on the family and relationship. First, read it through quickly to get a general
understanding.

Cancer had claimed my mother’s life when I was ten. She had been sick for quite a long time and my
father had done the best he could for Mum. Dad had taken her in her last few years to the Middle East and to
London, where she stayed for a while. So our school holidays were spent in London.
CONTOH
My two eldest siblings were already in a boarding school in England. So after my mother’s death, it was
just me, my older sister, Hani, and Dad at home. Hani and I were pretty much left to our own devices while

Dad worked. Luckily, it was in an era when we could safely roam our neighbourhood with our mates. Our
uncles and aunts visited us regularly, bringing our cousins to play with us. I was definitely not bored during
my childhood.

One day, we discovered a woman in Dad’s life. Soon, he asked us for our permission to get married,
which I readily gave. I couldn’t remember how my siblings reacted. We met our future stepmother at a
hill resort about an hour’s drive from Kuala Lumpur. She had a little girl, Ita, from her previous marriage. I
thought this was great – after years of bullying from my elder siblings, I could be the bully for once! I proudly
said as much when a relative asked what I thought of the upcoming union.

As much as the marriage was a huge chance to my life and those of my siblings, my stepmother too,
probably had her own fears. Some relatives were supportive of our blended family, while others shunned
my stepmother, with many feeding us nasty stories about her. But my stepmother was resilient, never once
lashing back at our relatives. She trusted Ita, Hani and me implicitly, and we became as close as any sisters.
Throughout my teenage years, I would vent my feelings on her, and she would coax and cajole my father into
accepting my point of view. She encouraged me to be curious, independent and most of all, brave.

She taught me empathy, and to think of Vocabulary Chamber
others before I thought of myself. When she claimed someone’s life – killed someone

She also taught me to cook, and we often spent coax – persuade
weekends making cakes, brownies, bread and vent – express negative emotions
even pizza. Even now, almost 30 years later, cajole – influence or gently urge
she remains the thread that holds our family
together, and she still is the channel through
which I pass messages to my father.

Stative Verbs
➤ Stative verbs describe a state or mental situation rather than an action. They are not usually used in
the present continuous form. We use the present simple with stative verbs. For example:
• I don’t know the solution. ( I’m not knowing the solution. )
• Jason seems happy at the moment. ( Jason is seeming happy at the moment. )
➤ Stative verbs often relate to:
• thoughts and opinions: agree, believe, imagine, know, remember, think, understand, guess,
recognise, etc.
• feelings and emotions: prefer, dislike, hate, like, love, want, wish, etc.
• senses and perceptions: be, feel, hear, appear, look, see, seem, smell, taste, etc.
• possession and measurement: possess, belong, have, measure, own, weigh, etc.

(ii) I agree with the quote that families and the individuals that make up a family have the potential to teach us many things in life.
I believe that how I was raised as a child will always be in my heart and mind, especially when I face challenges in life as an adult. I’ll
always bring to mind what I had been taught, or if the people are still around, go back to them for advice.
(iii) When the world is becoming so chaotic, I believe that the quote about loving your family and being kind to them is important.
I often take my family members for granted but this reminds me that kindness and serving each other at home is important so that I
will not have any regrets. My family knows the good and bad in me and yet they love me unconditionally. How can I not do the same for
them?
(iv) Parents or caregivers of children can create a home environment that allows children to grow up securely. The words adults say
to their children can build or tear them down. We must deposit and invest good values in children, so that goodness can be multiplied.

Hi Firdaus,
My cousin, who lives overseas, is planning to spend a week with my family and
me during his holidays. He is a nature lover, so I was thinking about taking him
to Taman Negara, Tasik Kenyir or Kuala Gandah Elephant Sanctuary – or maybe
somewhere else. Where would be the best place to take him to?
I’d love to know what you think.

Regards,
Aizat

Hi Aizat,

If I were you, I’d take him to Tasik Kenyir. The rainforest surrounding the largest man-made lake in
Southeast Asia is home to various species of flora and fauna. Your cousin can enjoy the scenic views
when he goes boating. There are caves too, so he can go caving. Fishing is also allowed in certain areas,
so he can give fishing a try. Finally, he can get close to elephants at a nearby elephant conservation
centre. There’s never a dull moment at Tasik Kenyir.

Bye!

Firdaus

Worksheet 1

Read the poem below once silently. Then read it to a friend aloud. Complete the tasks that follow.

A Family Is Like A Circle
Nicole M O’Neal

A family is like a circle.
The connection never ends,
and even if at times it breaks,

in time it always mends.

A family is like the stars.
Somehow they're always there.

Families are those who help,
who support and always care.

A family is like a book.
The ending's never clear,
but through the pages of the book,
their love is always near.

A family is many things.
With endless words that show
who they are and what they do
and how they teach you so you know.

Adapted from: https://www.familyfriendpoems.com/poem/a-family-is-like-a-circle
CONTOH
A Ask your friend to provide appropriate responses in their own words. You may refer to the poem

to provide your response.

1 The poet compares a family to ... a circle, stars, a book

2 A family is like a circle because … the connections or ties in a family never end

3 A family is like the stars because … families (family members) are always there for us

4 A family is like a book because … we never know how each family member ends up

5 Families show and teach us with … their words and actions PL

B Think of your own family and what you can compare it with. Briefly explain your response. Share

your response with your friends.

I compare my family to a house or shelter because I know I can always be safe and protected.

Study the scenarios below and work with a partner to write a short script to role-play a conversation.
Remember to keep the conversation going and reduce hesitations. Practise to have conversation go smoothly.

Scenario 1CONTOH
Have a conversation about a restaurant or a place you eat at.

(Suggested response) PdPc
Student A : Hi Rita! Did you do anything special for your birthday? AUDIO
Student B : Yea, I did. My parents brought me to Rasa Thai for dinner. I love Thai food.
Student A : Yes, I remember you mentioning that. Was it any good?
Student B : Well, the food was fantastic, but the service was not good.
Student A : Oh! What do you mean?
Student B : Well, the waitresses were not very friendly. They placed the dishes roughly on the table. It

seemed as if they were not happy doing their job. I had to ask them to fill up my water glass
frequently and they were not very pleased about that.
Student A : Oh, how horrid! However, you mentioned the food was good.
Student B : Oh yes! We ordered the usual tom yum, green curry and an egg dish as well as a spicy fish
dish. Everything smelled wonderful and tasted even better. I was totally satisfied.
Student A : I assume that you would go back again despite the poor service.
Student B : I think so. The food was delicious and the price was very reasonable, so yes.

Scenario 2
Converse with a friend about your favourite food.

(Suggested response)
Student A : Jamal, what are you going to choose as your favourite food for our oral presentation next

week?
Student B : It’s been really challenging trying to think of a favourite. I love food, all kinds of food. I haven’t

eaten anything that I haven’t liked.
Student A : That is funny. Well, think of the times when you thought of eating something, what usually

comes to mind?
Student B : Oh, something not very healthy.
Student A : Really? I’m curious to hear what it is.
Student B : Instant noodles!
Student A : Oh! I agree, but that would not be a good choice for the presentation.
Student B : I agree with you.
Student A : Why is instant noodles your favourite?
Student B : Well, I like it because it is convenient to prepare. All I need is hot water to cook the noodles. I

also like that I can add anything to it.
Student A : What do you mean?
Student B : I can add an egg, sausages or whatever protein I fancy. I can add vegetables too. Sometimes, I

just add leftovers I have in the fridge into the noodles. It still tastes so good.
Student A : Well, if you put it like that, your instant noodles could be a fairly healthy option I suppose.
