Fiction in mind

For over fiftyyears Charlolle's Web has delighted readers

around the world Set on a farm, it is the story of a great

iriendship between Charlotte a very intelligent spider and

\\'ilbur the pig Charlotte does everything she can to slop

Zuckerman the fanmer from killing the pig - not an easy thing

on a farm The story is especially remarkable for the way it

teaches children how to deal with death in a positive way.

This extract introduces Charlotte's first 'miracle', as she tries

to convince the farmer that \Vilbur is a genius.

how big and carefully built it was And then he

Lllrvey felt weak He brushed his hand across his

eyes and stared harder at Charlotte's web.

"I'm seeing thin~s.' he whispered He dropped

to his knees and uttered a shorl prayer Then,forgetting all about Wilbur's breakfasL he walkedback La the house and called Mr Zuckerman

'1 think you'd better come down to the pigpen.'

'What's the trouble?' asked Mr Zllckerman

'Anything wrong with the pig?' 'No - nol exactly.' said Lun'ey 'Come and see [or yourself:

In this kind of question, youwill usually heaT a number ofdifferent people talking about

a similar subject

• It is important to rcad thestatements carefully first,

to beclear abou t the

di fferences between each one

• The speakers may usedifferent words from the ones

in the statements, but the

idea will be the same

• Try to think 01 other ways

to express the ideas in the

::ilalements, to imagine what

the speaker might say Forexample, when the statement

is 'It's not necessary', thespeaker might say 'You don'thave to' or 'You don't need to'

• The speaker may seem to be

agreeing with the statement

because they use the samewords, but actually go on todisagree with the statementand therefore think theopposite For example, thespeaker might ""y,'Some peoplethink yOll have to seeyour best friend every day,

but I don'tthink that's

necessary.'

• Remember yOIl are bei ng

asked for the speaker'

opinion, notyours~

the person says about pets and their owners Decide whichstatement you think is the speaker's opinion

A Pet owners have a special understanding with their animals

B Only dogs have a telepathic relationship with their owners

not other pets

C The 'special relationship' between a pet and its owner doesnot really exist

'A lot of people seem to think that pets, especially dogs, aresomehow telepathic They think that they have a specialunderstanding with their animal, so that for example their petknows when they are coming home or knows when something iswrong I think that's ridiculous, though These things are justcoincidence, or it's just that the owner is trying to 'wish' that theirpet is special.'

The speaker says A lot of people seem to think :, but this

probably does not include the speaker The speaker also says

'especially dogs', which does not mean only dogs The third and

fourth sentences give the speaker's opinion: " think : The correctanswer is'C'

arning and recording words in context

-; very important to record words that you learn in a context in other words,

: :;n't record them as words on their own.

Coor example: if you learn the verb ·worry' you could record it as one word and then

te a translation, e_g 'worry=se preocupar

• CJt in order tou~ethe word 'worry', you need to know and remember words that

with it e.g_ the preposition 'about' So it's much better to write a sentence or

_-'3se that uses the other words too e.g 'She never seems to worry about

'-tthing' (You can add a translation if you think it's important and usefuL)

-, also a good idea to recordY9'!.' own sentences/phrases, about things which are

2for you - th,s makes new language much more memorable
