A ghost stole my mom s watch! My family had just moved into a new house, and I had heard all these creepy stories about it. Supposedly a 12-year-old boy named Fred had died there years ago, and he still haunts the house. But why would I believe those stories? I convinced myself that people were just trying to freak me out. Then, one day, my mom went out for a few hours and left me home alone. When she got back, she came into my room and asked, Katie, did you borrow my watch? No, I said. She looked confused. I left it on my bureau, and it s gone, she said. We searched everywhere, but the watch was nowhere to be found. But I knew no one had been in the house but me - so where did it go? Exactly a year later, Mom walked into her bedroom - and the watch was sitting on her bureau! There was a note beside it that said, Sorry about your watch. I never learned to tell time. Here s the scariest part: it was signed, Fred. Now I know all those scary stories about my house are true! Katie, 17, Ontario GT-0071-a-12-1-o 2 lees verder

4 Tekst 3 Skipping your Way to Fitness The playground sport is right back in fashion, reports Nicholas Roe 1 A rope screams through the air at 200 revs a minute, energy is burned at the jaw-sagging rate of 1,300 calories an hour and miracles of physical activity are performed in front of cheering crowds. Welcome to the new, super cool world of skipping. Once considered childish, this ancient playtime skill 3. And what s emerging is not just an effective route to mass fitness for little outlay ( 5 buys a decent rope), but a new place for Britain s young athletes in a growing international sport that s intriguing to watch. 2 Fiercely competitive, hugely intricate and physically demanding, skipping also known as rope-jumping also shows signs of being, quite literally, the new rock n roll. Singer James Morrison recently featured a team of competition skippers in his music video You Give Me Something. 4, Britain s best skippers returned from the World Rope Jumping Championships in Canada this summer with a creditable fourth place. 3 Four years ago the British Rope Skipping Association (BRSA) started trying to raise the profile of the sport, persuading television shows such as Blue Peter to focus on the subtle complexity of rope work, which can involve 200 different kinds of jump. Directors loved the fancy footwork and youthful profile. Huge efforts were also being ploughed into getting skipping back into the playground. This year saw Britain establishing a new world record when 7,632 children skipped continuously for three minutes in 85 locations, backed by teachers who consider rope-work to be a great way to improve youth fitness. 4 Skipping went out of fashion because video games and PlayStations came along, says Sue Dalem, secretary of the BRSA. But teachers are now pushing to bring it back. Dalem says that young people are instantly amazed at what is possible with just a simple rope. Her own daughters, Beci, 18, and Rachael, 17, started as seven-year-olds and now skip for Britain: We skip four or five times a week for two or three hours at a time, says Rachael. It s fun. 5 And this is the key. 6 basic skipping is simple, and almost anyone with five square feet of free space can do it, there s a genuinely attractive art to higher-level work. Half a dozen clubs in Britain regularly compete. 6 In speed contests, the world record is 188 jumps in 30 seconds. More creatively, rope-jumpers use one or even two long ropes held by team members to perform cartwheels, push-ups, handstands and aerial leaps while avoiding a rope spinning at 200 rpm. Skipping for 10 minutes is said to be the equivalent of GT-0071-a-12-1-o 4 lees verder

5 30 minutes jogging, and it tones the upper body as well as the legs. The truly extraordinary thing, perhaps, is that this antique pastime ever lost its mass appeal in the first place. 7 Although the trend has been reversed, one remaining challenge is that many young men still consider skipping an off-puttingly girly activity. This is surprising, given that boxers rely on skipping for endurance training. And when was Mike Tyson ever a sissy? 1p 3 Kies bij 3 in alinea 1 het juiste antwoord uit de gegeven mogelijkheden.

8 Tekst 6 Big Kids on the Block Johnny Dee 1 Last Saturday, an account manager from south-east London spent seven hours sitting in her Vauxhall Zafira parked outside the house of a stranger she knew only as the Giraffe. It was, she says, one of the most exciting things I've ever done. The woman, who would like to be known as Agent Squirtel, in order to protect her identity from rogue commandos, was taking part in StreetWars Killer, a water-pistol assassin game that has turned 150 Londoners into paranoid snipers with super-soakers. At about 8am her target emerged from his house and she gave chase down the street, successfully aiming her gun at his upper torso. It was only then that she realised she had squirted the wrong man: it was the Giraffe's flatmate, Dave. He was OK about it, she says. It was a hot day, he said he would dry out. 2 StreetWars is just one of many large-scale urban games being played in cities all across the world. All of them are similar in that information spreads via the internet. To anyone who chances upon them on the street, they seem like surreal, random events. All of them also utilise wireless technology such as GPRS 1), use real streets rather than boards or computer screens as their game's grid, and all resemble childhood games in their simplicity. 3 They definitely appeal to people with a Peter Pan complex 2), says Yutai Liao, a San Francisco graphics designer whose alter ego, the Mustache Commander, is behind the StreetWars craze. Where's the law that states that once you get to a set age you can only have fun by going to dinner parties with other adult friends? The average age of competitors, says Liao, is Frank Lantz, a US college lecturer who encouraged his students to play a human game of Pac-Man, believes the social aspect is the main reason why urban games are becoming a trend. A lot of these games use new technology but they're also about a return to the classic values of pre-computer gaming: face-toface social interaction, he says. noot 1 GPRS = General Packet Radio Service, used by GSM mobile phones noot 2 Peter Pan complex = when you suffer from this, you don t want to grow up GT-0071-a-12-1-o 8 lees verder

10 Tekst 7 My Son, the Chimp British teacher takes him toys, watches TV and has a laugh with him By Marie Woolf Political Editor 1 A British woman has launched a court challenge to become the legal guardian of a 160lb chimpanzee in a test case that could confer basic rights on apes across Europe. 2 Paula Stibbe, 38, a teacher who lives in Vienna, has applied to the Austrian courts to take legal responsibility for a 26-year-old male chimpanzee which, she fears, could be subjected to laboratory tests if he isn t given legal rights. Animalwelfare organisations see it as a test case that would give special legal status to the great apes. It comes as Hiasl the chimp likes dressing-up clothes and enjoys watching TV Members of Parliament make a fresh attempt to ban animal testing on primates 1) across Europe. 3 Ms Stibbe, who is originally from Brighton, befriended Hiasl the chimp eight years ago and now visits him every week, bringing biscuits and his favourite Viennese pastries, clothes, including Wellington boots, and art materials. The ape, which has lived in an Austrian animal sanctuary 2) most of his life after being rescued by customs officials as a baby, is facing an uncertain future after the sanctuary ran out of cash. 4 Ms Stibbe, who spends hours with Hiasl each week, says she regards him as a friend and is horrified about the prospect of him being transported to a laboratory. If her application to become his legal guardian is successful, she would be responsible for making decisions about his welfare. 5 She told The Independent on Sunday she plays hide and seek and watches wildlife programmes with him. He likes being tickled and he likes dressing-up clothes, she said. He is especially fond of Wellington boots. He likes drawing with coloured chalk, mostly scribbling. He laughs a lot and is very gentle with me, even though he has the strength of seven men. He has a special greeting for me and tweaks my nose between his middle and index finger when I arrive. He enjoys watching TV, and is specially fond of wildlife documentaries. I showed GT-0071-a-12-1-o 10 lees verder

I want to make sure that he has a fully secure future, and does not end up in a lab abroad. 6 Hiasl was captured as a one-year-old in Sierra Leone and smuggled to Austria, where he was bound for a vivisection lab. He was found by customs officers after surviving the journey to Europe in a box, and was taken in by the sanctuary he is granted basic legal rights, he could be sent abroad to a laboratory when the sanctuary closes.

These apes share about 98 per cent of their DNA with humans. noot 1 primate = (mens)aap noot 2 animal sanctuary = dierenopvang 1p 16 Why has Paula Stibbe launched a court challenge (first sentence) according to paragraphs 1-2? She wants to A be given legal permission to perform tests on a group of Austrian apes. B get a licence to set up a developing project for primates in Europe. C officially become responsible for a grown-up chimp to protect him. 1p 17 Why is there a chance that Hiasl may soon be transported elsewhere according to paragraph 3? A According to the rules he is no longer allowed to stay in Austria. B He needs a health check because of his age. C His behaviour is making him difficult to handle.

14 Tekst 9 Can she fix it? Yes she can! As Julie Bindel discovers, female builders are in huge demand but can they ever compete with the tea-slurping boys? 1 Of all the construction workers employed at London s Wembley Stadium, what percentage would you guess are women? Five? Ten? Twenty at a push? How about 0.05%? Out of 10,000, notes Karen Procter, director of the national organisation, Women and Manual Trades (WAMT), between three and five are women. We get a lot of respect builders Louise Horwood and colleague at work in Milton Keynes 2 It s a statistic that seems even more shocking when you consider that, in the run-up to the 2012 Olympics in London, Britain is short of 350,000 builders. Across the building trade, women account for fewer than 1% of workers, making the building site still very much a man s domain what Procter describes as the last bastion of sexist discrimination in the workplace. 3 The government belatedly seems to have taken notice. Education Secretary Alan Johnson recently reserved 20m for training women in construction. Whether this will be enough remains to be seen. 4 Amid all this bad news, though, there are a few success stories. Plasterer Janet Shelley says that she has always wanted to do things that people think are impossible, and so set up Women Builders, a company that now employs the UK s largest female construction workforce 14 full-time builders. We have no problems filling vacancies, says Shelley. There are lots more women wanting to work in the trade than there are jobs. 5 So I set off for Milton Keynes, where Women Builders set up three years ago. Women Builders are renovating a local village school, ripping out kitchens and rebuilding walls. I meet Louise Horwood, a 20-year-old carpenter. I always wanted to be a builder, she tells me, but my dad, who is in the trade, was dead against it. After leaving school, Horwood briefly tried hairdressing college, but hated it. I had never been so bored in all my life, she says, and my dad s pressure on me only made me more determined. She entered the world of construction aged just 16 and at first struggled to cope. Men would harassingly say, Don t break your nails on that, love, it s too heavy. But I kept going and now I m one of them. 6 Janet Shelley works closely with WAMT which represents and supports women working and training in skilled manual and craft occupations to try to establish better working practices and reduce discrimination. When WAMT GT-0071-a-12-1-o 14 lees verder

15 began in 1975, small numbers of middle-class, white, educated women entered the trade partly to protest at women s exclusion. Today, however, 60% of members are black, and have similar class backgrounds to their male counterparts. Most of these women are moving out of manual jobs like cleaning and catering into trades where they can earn four times as much, says Procter. 7 Women Builders is never short of work, but there is still the occasional customer who does not understand the kind of firm they are. Sometimes you turn up for a job at someone s house, or business, and the highly surprised client will say to us, Oh, you really are women! 8 Shelley and Horwood say that when they are on a building site, people will stop and openly stare at them. Some will shout and ask what they are doing. We are at the stage with women construction workers today that we were 25 years ago with male nurses, Procter believes. In a few years, it will be far more common to see women in hard hats up on scaffolding. 9 If women in building are to really flourish, organisations such as WAMT say, it is crucial that the opportunity offered by the 2012 Olympics isn t wasted. We will see how keen the government is to end the extreme levels of sexism and discrimination in the building trade, says Procter, and we expect to see many more women encouraged and trained to work on building sites, alongside men who treat them as equals. A tall order, maybe, but these women certainly know how to stand up to the big boys. 1p 22 According to paragraphs 1 and 2, what is meant by the last bastion of sexist discrimination? (end paragraph 2) A London s Wembley Stadium B the building site C the Olympics D the WAMT 1p 23 Which of the following is true for Janet Shelley according to paragraph 4? A She has to put great effort into finding suitable workers. B She herself also works in the building trade. C She is not a very enterprising person. D She is struggling to make her company profitable. 1p 24 What becomes clear about Louise Horwood from paragraph 5? A She had to work very hard to be seen as equal by her male colleagues. B She had worked as a hairdresser for years before she took up building. C She only started on a building course after the death of her father.

(end of paragraph 7) What does this reaction point out about the customers of Women Builders? A Not all of them realise that Women Builders employs only women. B Some of them refuse to believe that women can build houses. C They have made clear they strongly prefer men to do the job. D They think the female builders employed by Women Builders look a lot like men. 1p 27 can they ever compete with the tea-slurping boys? (introduction) Karen Procter answers this question in paragraph 9. What does her answer come down to? A In future men and women will definitely work together as equals on building sites. B The 2012 Olympics will hopefully function as a positive turning point. C The government is unwilling to change its policy to achieve this equality. D Women will always be discriminated against in construction work. GT-0071-a-12-1-o 16 lees verder

However, the force has moved to disable the game options such as bat and ball on the gadgets after officers were caught playing with them in meetings. Police officers have been rebuked for playing games on the newly issued hand-held computers which were championed by Gordon Brown 1) for allowing police to spend more time on the beat. The devices were issued nationwide this year to enable officers to access the Police National Computer (PNC), briefings, intelligence and warrants databases. About 10,000 of the devices were sent to 27 police forces, costing 50 million. The Prime Minister claimed they could cut average paperwork by 99 minutes a shift although some officers complained that the devices were less efficient than a notepad and pen.

Jouw vriend/vriendin vindt zelf niet dat er iets bijzonders gebeurd is. Jij vindt van wel, want het was heel moedig om in het koude, diepe water te springen en andere mensen stonden alleen maar toe te kijken. Je hoopt dat ze je vriend/vriendin kiezen, want hij/zij verdient het echt. Het is een grote wens van hem/haar om eens naar Londen te gaan, omdat hij/zij gehoord heeft dat het zo n geweldige stad is, waar je ook goed kunt winkelen.
