Every year our school organises a Spring Festival. This year the students are preparing something different: a “Green Festival”. The drama club is rehearsing a play about recycling, and the music club is practising songs about nature. The sports teams are organising a charity run. All the money will go to a project to plant 200 trees around the school.

Our principal says, “Visitors mustn’t leave any litter in the garden, and everyone must use the recycling bins.” On 23 April, the festival will also celebrate National Sovereignty and Children’s Day with a special show.

Why is this year’s festival called a “Green Festival”? Give two reasons from the text.

Read Defne’s blog post.

Last year my family moved from a big detached house in a village to a small flat in the city. In the village, we used to have dinner together every evening in the garden. In the city, things changed. My father was working late, my brother was always playing online games, and I was studying in my room. We didn’t talk much, and we argued about small things.

One evening, while we were having dinner in silence, my mother had an idea: a “family meeting” every Sunday. Now we sit in the living room, we share our problems and we plan the week together. Our flat is still small, but our home feels bigger.

What was the family’s problem, and what was the solution?
