Three great campsites to try this summer
Sandy Bay
This campsite is on an excellent beach, and has its own surfing school with special prices for
campers. You can also learn to windsurf and sail there. The sea is safe for swimming, so it’s
a great place for families. The large swimming pool is great in summer, and has a wide area
of grass around it. Its small supermarket has long opening hours. It doesn’t matter what size
tent you bring, as the campsite is large and you won't be too near your neighbours!
High Wood
There are lots of activities you can do at High Wood campsite, from fishing to cycling, and
they'll lend you any of the equipment you need. It’s not as large as some campsites, but it's
clean and modern. It has a fantastic pool with a roof window which can open and close.
There's also a special area where you can watch films or dance under the stars to local
bands. For food shopping, try the shop in the nearby village.
Black Lake
The wonderful thing about Black Lake campsite is waking up in the morning and seeing the
beautiful mountains all around you. You don’t have to bring your own tent - there are some
already there you can pay to use. There's lots to do - you can swim in the lake or walk in the
forest. And don't forget to bring your mountain bike with you! If you want to cook for yourself,
the shop in the next village has a good variety of food.

QUESTIONS 14-18
For each question, choose the correct answer.
Jack Calder
Violin player Jack Calder plays in the Australian band, Ocean Blue.
Jack Calder started playing the violin when he was ten. ‘My music teacher played and one
day he asked if anyone wanted to learn. Some girls put up their hands and so did I. | didn't
have a violin, but my uncle said | could use his, The lessons were really hard at first, but
playing the violin soon became important to me.’
After leaving school, Jack moved to Melbourne. For a time, he preferred listening to music
to playing it. The rock music he listened to sounded very different from violin music, so he
bought an electric violin, and started putting the things he liked about rock music into the
music he played on his violin.
A year later, Jack met a small group of Melbourne musicians. ‘We all thought about music in
the same way and started Ocean Blue together. A year later, we were playing lots of concerts,
and our music was selling well. But we didn’t want this to make us different people. We didn't
want to stop being friends.’
Jack meets many people who think playing the violin is an unusual career, but he doesn't
agree with them. ‘I think it's the best thing in the world. | guess I’m lucky that way. The
intermet has changed music, but when I walk into a violin shop it's like entering another
world ~ one where time has stopped. Someone has looked after these beautiful old
instruments that are two or three hundred years old. | think that’s amazing.”

How I became a tennis coach
| grew up in Germany, but when | was 17, | moved to Spain so |
could go to a tennis centre there. It was hard to be without my family
and friends, especially when | hurt myself or got ill. However, my
tennis improved a lot. After three years, | left the centre and began
my career. | started playing in big competitions around the world. |
did OK, but wasn’t eaming enough money, so | quickly decided to
become a tennis coach instead. | now teach children who are just
starting the game, which is fun.
When | was 14, my dad sent me to a tennis centre near my home in
Italy. He thought | might become a top player like him, but | saw how
much time he spent going from one country to another during his
career, and I've never wanted that for myself. My favourite things at
the tennis centre were spending time at the pool or having barbecues
with friends in the evenings. I'm now a coach, and teach young tennis
stars at summer camps in Italy.
When I went to live in Spain so | could go to a famous tennis centre
there, my dad came with me, and my mum stayed at home in
Scotland. My tennis really improved during my two years there, but
when | broke my foot it became clear that a career as ¢ tennis player
wasn’t going to be possible. | went home for a year and then returned
to the centre to do a coaching course. | now teach the best young
players in Scotland.

Joining a ballroom dancing club
By Pippa Cartwright
When | started college, | wanted to find a club to join. One of the first ones | looked at was
ballroom dancing — a type of dance you do with a partner. The people there seemed to be
having a great time, and it didn’t cost much, so | decided to join.
The first week | went, | was really worried because the teacher told us that there were
nineteen different dances we had to learn, But it’s been fine. When there's a new thing to
learn, he shows it to us lots of times and makes sure we're all good at it before we do the
next thing.
When | joined, | didn’t know any of the other people in the club because we all study different
subjects. But it's been a great way to meet people, and I've made some of my best friends in
the club.
‘One of the reasons we learn the dances is to enter competitions. I couldn't wait to do my
first one. Before we started, | was a bit worried. But during the competition, my partner and
| remembered everything about our dances. We were great. We didn’t win any prizes, but it
didn’t matter - we loved it!
Joining the ballroom dancing club has been fantastic. In the past, | always did the same
sports and activities, year after year, but ballroom dancing has taught me there’s nothing
scary about doing something you've never tried before. | still do lots of sports, but now I can
add ballroom dancing to my list of hobbies.

Last year | moved to a new city because of my job. | didn’t have

A dancer’s life
| work as a dancer, and I’m also studying part-time. | practise most
days and have to do my college work, so I can’t always go out with
my friends at weekends, but that’s fine. We text each other every day.
| mostly dance in musicals, but in the future I'm hoping to start jazz
dance. My mum always comes to watch me on stage. She's my biggest
fan! Being a dancer isn’t easy, but | want to do it as longas | can.
There are dancers of all ages in my dance company and every year
we go on international tours together. My cousin also dances with me.
She's been a dancer for seven years and people everywhere know her
now. She was a jazz dancer in the past, but loves what we do now. |
don’t usually feel worried before | dance in front of others ~ I know I'm
good! But that’s only because | try so hard. | spend about three hours
dancing every day.
I come from a family of dancers so maybe it's not surprising I'm one
too. I'm in a hip-hop group at the moment, but actually | can dance to
any music ~ even jazz! I’m the youngest member of my dance group.
Before each show, | think of everything that might go wrong, but | try
hard to tell myself it'll all be OK. We dance all over the country, so I'm
away from home almost every day and | miss my friends a lot.

Travel writer
Tim Greenwood lives in Oakland, USA. He has written about Cambodia, Thailand and India.
At the moment he is writing a book about Nepal.
Tim, how did you start travelling?
We never travelled as a family, but when I was a teenager | saw movies like Lawrence of
Arabia and they made me want to travel. | left college at the age of 21 and went to Europe
alone. That trip didn’t go well - I was too young and didn’t know how to look after myself.
How did you start writing?
I've loved writing since | was ten - I've never wanted any other career. At 21, | wrote for
my weekly college paper and then started writing travel articles. At first, none of the travel
magazines | sent them to wanted to buy them, but that slowly changed. It took two or three
years, | guess.
What do you find difficult about writing?
Itis easy to spend all my time travelling and then not have time to open up my laptop and
work! Also, it's hard to earn enough money. I'll never stop writing, but one day I may have to
do a few hours a week teaching just to pay the bills.
What's the best thing about being a travel writer?
| get letters from young people who've read my books and articles and enjoy my work. I just
love that!
