2. Read the essay. Does it mention any of your ideas from exercise 1? Which of the ideas in the essay do you think is best? Why?

(Đọc bài khóa. Nó có đề cập đến ý tưởng nào của bạn từ bài tập 1 không? Bạn nghĩ ý kiến nào trong bài văn là hay nhất? Vì sao?)

If I had €1 million, it would be easy to find three good ways to use the money and help people who deserve it.

First of all, I would donate half of the money to the children's hospital in my town. They’re raising money to build bedrooms for visiting families.

Secondly, I would make a donation to my local primary school to buy sports equipment. As I see it, more sport at school would mean healthier children. Furthermore, the teachers would find it far easier to teach sports and PE if they had new equipment.

Finally, I would buy a new bike for my brother. He borrows mine all the time, even though he’s got one, because mine is better. If he had a new bike, he wouldn’t do that!

To sum up, I would use the money to make life better for the families of children in hospital, to improve facilities at my school and to buy a gift for my brother.

5. Read the useful phrases for summing up. Then find one more in the letter in exercise 2. Which paragraph does it begin?

Read the text and answer the questions.

My father has an unusual hobby: carving eggshells. As everyone knows, eggshells are very fragile. My dad can make beautiful pieces of art from empty eggshells. It's amazing !

He started the hobby five years ago after a trip to the US where he saw some carved eggshells in an art gallery. My father did not go to class to learn how to carve. He learned everything from Internet.

Some people say that this hobby is difficult and boring, but it isn't. All you nees is time. It may take two weeks to complete one sell. I find this hobby interesing because carved eggsells are unique gifts for family and friends. I hope that in the future he'll teach me how to do eggshell carving.

1. Why does Nick think his father's hobby is unusual ?

2. Where did his father see the carved eggshells for the first time?

3. How do some people find this hobby ?

4. Does Nick like his father's hobby ?
