Instead, he ran to the living room to get the fire, extinguish her. In seconds, the fire and the burning pen was put out. Are you okay, Allen? As his friend? I think so.

Unit six, crossing cultures one, be read nance's email about party manners in france underlying the topic sentences to Diana at french learning dot com from Nancy at student dot com subject three. how's life in france? Hi Diana. It's so great to hear from you. Life in paris is pretty good. I was a little lonely at first, but i'm starting to make some friends. They helped me to learn more about the customs here after I had some embarrassing experiences at a party last month. I'd like to share some tips with you. First, you shouldn't arrive early to a party. It's Normal to be on time or a few minutes late, but arriving early can cause problems. Once I arrived ten minutes early to a party, usually that's the polite thing to do, right? But my friend looked so surprised to see me. He was still getting everything ready. Second is important to bring a gift when you visit someone. When I attended my friend's party, I didn't bring anything. IT wasn't his birthday, but everyone else brought gifts like chocolates or flowers to thank him for the party. I was so embarrassed. Third, you should always try to dress for the occasion at that party. IT was surprising to see how nicely everyone was dressed. IT was summer, so I was just wearing a simple blouse and shorts, but everyone else was dressed so well that I felt silly. Fourth, it's best not to ask personal questions unless you know the person quite well. Many french people are quite private. They don't like IT when others ask them about their age, their family, whether they are married or how much money they make. Food and culture, however, are safe conversation topics, last but not least, make sure you use french whenever you can. Lots of people speak english here, but you can develop closer relationships with them. If you use french, it's very important in their culture. I found that even a simple mercy goes a long way. You'll see what I mean as soon as you get here over war, Nancy.
Unit eight, making a difference. Section b. How does helping others make a difference? One bee read the speech by a blue sky rescue volunteer. What kind of hook does the speaker use? Which paragraph includes a call to action? Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for inviting me to speak to you about blue sky rescue today. Let me begin with my own story. Back in two thousand eight, I was hiking in the mountains with some friends. When one of them fell and got a bad head injury, we had to find help quickly, so we called an emergency number. IT was already dark, and we couldn't even see where we were. After some time, we heard dogs barking in the voices of the blue sky rescue team. I nearly started crime. We were so thankful that they found us. I've never forgotten that day. Since then, i've wanted to help others too. I signed up with blue sky rescue in two thousand nine, and i've been a volunteer ever since. We've been to schools and other communities to teach children and adults how to stay safe and prepare for the worst. We've also rescued people during emergencies. We've provided medical aid and searched for missing people after natural disasters like the two thousand thirteen earthquake in in an, and the typhoon in the Philippines in the in twenty twenty three. We even helped in places as far away as turkey. Working as a volunteer has taught me many practical life savings skills. IT has also helped me understand the power of teamwork because it's the key to successful rescues. Most of all, being a volunteer has taught me the value of every life. The work is difficult. It's voluntary, so we aren't paid. We often go without food or sleep, but our goal has always been to save as many people as we can. I'm just an ordinary person, but i'll rush into danger, just like everyone else in blue sky, rescue to the people we've saved in their loved ones. I know with their heroes, and that makes everything we do worth IT. We want to do even more, but we can't do IT all alone. Will you join us as a volunteer? Together, we can make a difference.
Unit five, natures temper section b what can we do to prepare for the worst? One bee read the first paragraph of the text, what do you think happened to tilly Smith and her family next? Then read the rest of the text to check your answer. How one girl saved many lives on december twenty six, two thousand. Four, tilly smith, a ten year old english schoolgirl, and her family were on holiday in food cat thailand. Everyone was enjoying the beautiful weather that morning. Some people were swimming in the sea and some were relaxing on the beach. But while tilly was walking along the beach with her family, SHE noticed something strange. Thick White froth was forming on top of the waves. Next, SHE saw that the waves were coming in instead of going out. Just then, he remembered something important. Two weeks before, her geography teacher had explained that earthquakes under the sea could create dangerous waves called sanies. I know what's going to happen. There's going to be a big wave. Tilly cried. Unfortunately, her family didn't believe her and wanted to continue their walk. However, tilly refused to take a single step further. Finally, her mother decided to continue to walk alone, and the rest of her family returned to the hotel. Back at the hotel, tilly's father told a security guard about the sunni. The security guard was shocked. He knew about the huge earthquake in nearby indonesia. IT meant that a tsunami was possible. He jumped into action right away and rushed to get people off the beach. Everyone began to panic. People were screaming and running as fast as they could when they saw a huge wall of water coming from the sea. Tilly was right. Her mother was one of the last people on the beach, but thankfully her family made IT to safety just as the water hit the hotel. The two thousand four tsunami caused over two hundred thousand deaths, but no one on the beach died that day. This true story shows how a single lesson could mean the difference between life and death, thanks to her knowledge in quick thinking, one schoolgirl was able to save over one hundred lives.
