Look at Part 2. Listen and look. There is one example.

Would you like to enter a short story competition, Holly?

Yes. I love writing stories.

Look. It's in this magazine I bought for you today. It's called Young World.

Great. Thanks Dad.

Can you see the answer? Now you listen and write.

So how long have I got to write my story Dad?

The last day to send the story is in October. Let me see.

Yes, the 16th of October. So you've got a few weeks.

Cool. Can I write a story about any subject I like?

I'd like to write one about space. A journey to the stars or something.

No. The magazine says you have to write a story about winter. Okay?

Hmm. I'll have to think about it. How many words will I need to write?

You have to write 350 words. That's quite short.

Yes. I can do that. Once I wrote a story that had 500 words.

Really? That's a lot. Now a famous writer will read all the stories and decide who the winner will be.

Fantastic. Who?

Wait a minute. Let me see. Betty Jones. Do you know her?

How do you spell her surname? J-O-N-E-S.

Oh yes. She's great. I've read some of her stories.

So do you want to know what the prize is?

Of course I do. Is it money?

Not money. It's a bike. Brilliant. I'm going to go and start my story now.

Now listen to part two again.

Listen and look.

There is one example.

You know you wanted to go to the lake.

Yes?

Well, I phoned the Great Lake Water Park this morning.

You can go to the children's day there.

Cool!

Can you see the answer?

Now you listen and write.

When is it, Mum?

I thought it was the 18th of June, but it's not.

It's the 20th.

That's next Friday.

OK.

What will I do there?

First, there'll be a sailing class.

That's for most of the morning, from 9 o'clock until half past 11.

Sailing, that's brilliant!

You're in the beginners group, and your teacher's name is Miss Trophy.

That's T-R-O-P-H-Y.

It's important you know her name, so you go in the right group.

OK.

What happens next?

You have a picnic lunch, and after that, you do something with all the other children.

OK.

There will be games.

But you won't be in the water again.

You'll be by the lake.

Great!

And there is one thing you must take with you.

What? Some food?

No, they will give you that.

You need to take your towel, because you might get wet.

All right?

Yes!

All right, children. Before you go, what did we say we are doing this week?

It's our bring your pet to school day, Miss Singer.

That's right, Betty. It's on Thursday.

I'm so excited about it.

Can you see the answer?

Now you listen and write.

And what else must you remember?

The time.

Yes. It's right after lunch at two o'clock in the afternoon.

What happens if a pet is scared, Miss?

You don't have to bring it, Betty. You can bring some photos and use them to talk about it.

Oh, that's good. My lizard doesn't like being near lots of people.

And if any of you do not have pets, don't worry.

You can make a poster of a pet you would like to have.

Then you can show it to the class and explain why you chose that animal.

Is there anything else we should bring, Miss? Food or water?

No. It's not a good idea to feed them here.

But please tell your parents to bring a few towels or their cages.

And what happens if our parents can't come, Miss? Can they email you?

Part 2. Listen and look. There is one example.

Hello and welcome to New Age Radio. On the programme today we have the young woman who won

our singing competition last week. Hello, my name is Holly. Thank you for inviting me.

Could you spell that for us please? The people listening will need to remember your name when

you're famous. Alright, that's H-O-L-L-Y.

Can you see the answer? Now you listen and write.

We loved your song, Holly. Can you tell us what it's called? Yes. I sang Dark November.

I wrote it myself. It sounds like this is a song about the weather. Is it?

It does sound like that, but it's not. My best friend was away for all that month last year.

I felt sad and alone without her. Well, we're happy that you wrote the song.

Me too. But the other songs on my new CD are not as unhappy as this one.

It's got 12 songs and you can hear them all in my next concert.

That's great news for us. When is your next concert then?

It's in two weeks, on the 2nd of May. It's a Tuesday.

Cool. Put that date in your calendar boys and girls and get your tickets now.

Wait a minute. We need to say where it is, don't we?

Of course. Tell us, Holly. Where is it?

It's at the South City Stadium near the University. I'd love to see you all there.
