Their job is to recognise the chemical pattern given off by different foods. 8 one trillion/a trillion Estimates vary as to how many individual smells humans can detect, but one study suggests it’s as many as one trillion. 9 tried the test_.

7 Model answer Putting the fun back into festival Are you looking for a great way to enjoy yourself this summer? It’s well worth trying the ForTeen Festival. It’s a five-day event that takes place every year in the first week of August. What makes it special? It’s specifically for 14–18-year-olds. One of the best things is the entertainment. It’s perfect for anyone interested in bands, clothes, movies or gadgets. There are performances and talks by well-known musicians and speakers. The festival also offers workshops and one-hour lessons so you can have a go at something new. It’s a very well-organised festival, located a few kilometres from the centre. The area is divided into zones for music, technology, fashion and cinema. So you can go for what you love, or try a bit of everything. Air-conditioned buses run every 15 minutes to the festival and the area is accessible to wheelchairs. Just one day at ForTeen is fantastic, but if you have time, an all-inclusive ticket is really worth the money. I would highly recommend the event to students of my age. Check out the programme for this year. You won’t regret it.

3 1 C What teenager in the world hasn’t thought of staying at home on a schoolday and sending an avatar to class instead? But what about young people who want to go to school, but can’t? ... Meet AV1, the avatar that allows students to attend school even when they are off sick. 2 B AV1 is the brainchild of a Norwegian robotics company appropriately named No Isolation. 3 A The built-in camera allows the ill student visual access to the activity in the classroom. However, the student is not visible to the rest of the class or the teacher. This is to protect their privacy ... 4 A Contributions to the class are made through the robot with the student’s own voice. This refers back to the student’s own voice and forward to She describes AV1 as ‘... the voice’ of the ill student at school. 5 D The students who are in school also need to feel they can relate to the avatar. Karen Dolva explains, ‘... This is supposed to be their friend.’ 6 B It is an amazing opportunity for people with challenges similar to those I face, to be able to go to school, attend classes, ...

5 Model answer: Classes in most schools are based on age despite big differences between students born in the same year. Is this the best way to educate young people? It is often thought that students of the same age learn well together. However, being the same age doesn’t mean you have the same abilities. One fourteen-year old could be brilliant at maths and another might find it difficult. Likewise, two fifteen- year olds may have different skills in sport or music. Another important point is motivation. In a class of different ages, the older ones can motivate the younger ones to achieve more. Moreover, the older students benefit by showing what they have learned and gaining self-confidence. From my own experience, I believe mixed-age groups encourage teamwork. I’m part of an orchestra with a big age range and we all work together. Collaborating across age groups is also more like real life.

To sum up, I agree that mixed-aged classes help students learn better. By being in the same age group they may miss out on challenge and motivation. Working with different ages is also better preparation for the world of work.

Sentences 3, 5 and 7 can be used in the first paragraph. The others are all for ending the email. 6 Model answer Hi Piotr Thanks for your message. Of course I’ll help with your project. Here’s the information about where I live. The biggest thing that’s changed is the transport system. They’ve taken cars out of the centre and installed electric trams. If they hadn’t, we’d all be sitting in traffic every day just to get to school! It’s really made a difference to the whole town. Another improvement is that there’s less litter now. The council lost patience with people who were always making a mess when having a barbecue on the beach. They started fining them and now everyone tidies up. You asked about what should have been done differently. Well, the new cinema has been a waste of money. A lot of local people have lost interest in cinema because of Netflix, but the silliest decision was the location. It’s miles out of town, but you can’t catch public transport there. So when you’ve made up your mind which film to see, you still need to organise a lift. If only someone had taken charge of the transport links! Anyway, I hope that helps. All the best Anna

4 A: So what are we going to do for this project? We need ideas that will increase tourism. B: People expect clear information with one tap of a screen. Things have moved on from the days of paper maps and leaflets. A: You’re right. I can’t get over the number of sites that have too much information. People can’t choose what to do so they don’t have a go at anything at all. B: So maybe we should focus on a smaller area, you know, just keep it local. A: Wouldn’t that be a bit boring? The key thing is to get people interested in this area. We’d need something that would really bring the place to life for them. B: How about creating a top ten list of things to do in and around the city? Some could be right in the centre and others more off the beaten track. With just ten, we focus on fewer activities, but in more detail. A: Nice! Let’s get started.

1 B the accuracy of information available today 2 1 Wikipedia ✓ 3 social media ✓ 4 product reviews ✓ 3 1 In the first place, it’s important to know why this information was sent to you. 2 Texts are not always what they seem – for instance, some adverts look like information documents, but they are actually selling a product. 3 On the whole, I’d say that you can trust what you read, but you still need to be careful. 4 With reference to Wikipedia, it’s clear when the information is not accurate or complete. 5 As far as I’m concerned, it’s getting harder to know which information is reliable. 6 People need to know who produced the information. What ’s/ is more, they need to understand why. 4 2 There are a number of things you need to check. First of all, it’s important to know if the text is written in a neutral way. 3 Some documents are full of mistakes. For this reason, we’re only allowed to use reliable sites for homework. 4 There is so much news on social media. In my view, it’s important to be selective. 5 On the one hand we are fortunate to have information at our fingertips, but on the other hand we need to be cautious. 6 There are different ways of checking information. For example, comparing against two or three other documents is a good technique. 5 1 Generally speaking, I think people ignore online advertising. 2 In my opinion, getting advice from someone I know is best. 3 Regarding the news, it’s important to check different sources. 4 In conclusion, learning to manage information is an important skill. 5 Articles are written from many different points of view. **6 1 ** access 2  It is said 3  on an hourly basis 4  widen your range of 5  tend to 6  huge variety 7  bear in mind 8  sole

7 Model answer

Every day, we receive a huge amount of information from a wide range of sources. It’s important that we can trust what we read and hear. Firstly, regarding articles, it depends if you’re reading for information or entertainment. Content for a school project, for example, needs to be checked for accuracy. So it’s a good idea to compare details from different sources. However, in my view, when reading an article for fun, accuracy is less important. Secondly, with reference to advertisements, I believe you need to be cautious about their content. Generally speaking, advertisers want to make money, so you need to know what the real benefits of a product are. Finally, product reviews provide useful information, but only if the writer gives an honest opinion. On some websites, reviewers are paid so they may write positive comments even though the product was fairly ordinary. What is more, a celebrity review can make a product seem more attractive than it really is. In conclusion, on the one hand we’re lucky to have all this information available, but on the other hand we need to know who produced it and why.

6 Model answer Dear Mr Leeson I’m writing to offer you some fundraising suggestions for the new teenagers centre. It’s going to be such a great place. Since we need to appeal to people of different ages, why don’t we organise a sponsored walk? That is something everyone can do, even if they aren’t sporty. We could raise more money by asking local businesses to take part. Secondly, how about a sale of things that people don’t need any more? So many of us have clothes, books and DVDs around the house that we don’t use. These could be sold and the money could help us reach our target. Finally, as music is so popular, it might be a good idea to have a weekend festival. If we had different styles of music from different cultures, I think the whole community would go for that. We could also have food on sale to help increase the profit we make. In my opinion, the main thing is to have activities that everyone can take part in and to attract as many volunteers as possible. I hope my ideas are useful. Best wishes [name]

1 C to give information about a special category of people
2 1 sight In the first talk in the series on senses, we looked at
sight.
2 cells This is someone with a higher density and number of
cells for taste compared with the average.
3 limit This was the biggest shock for me when researching this
talk that being a supertaster can actually limit the range of
foods you enjoy.
4 quarter … that leaves about a quarter of us who have a very
strong reaction to the bitter taste.
5 (about) seventy So our sense of smell and taste fade over
time, especially after reaching about seventy.
6 sophisticated What most people don’t realise is that we
need the receptors in the nose to work with the taste buds to
produce the sophisticated range of flavours we get from our
diet.
7 chemical Humans have about 350different receptor genes
for smells. Their job is to recognise the chemical pattern given
off by different foods.
8 one trillion/a trillion Estimates vary as to how many individual
smells humans can detect, but one study suggests it’s as
many as one trillion.
9 tried the test. Many people from the team here at the Science
for Life office all tried the test and I was really hoping to get
supertaster status, but I’m sorry to say I was the worst taster
of the whole group.
