Reading
10. Read the article about children with special abilities and choose the correct words to complete the sentences.
Child prodigies
According to the Cambridge Dictionary Online, a child prodigy is a young child who has great ability in something.
They could be a painter, a musician, a scientist or even a sportsperson.
Pablo Picasso
Pablo Picasso is known all over the world for his painting, drawing and sculpture.
People say that Picasso’s first words were ‘piz, piz’. He was trying to say ‘lápiz’, which of course is the Spanish word
for ‘pencil’. He wasn’t a good student at primary school and he wasn’t interested in school work. He preferred
drawing in his notebook. When Picasso was 14, he moved with his family to Barcelona. The art school there took
students much older than Picasso, but he was so successful in the exam, that the school let him join.
Ricky Rubio
While Ricky Rubio was watching his brother play basketball, he decided that he wanted to train too. At the age of
four, he joined the local team. However, when he was 10, he persuaded his father to allow him to play football
instead. After a few matches, Rubio asked his father if he could go back to basketball. At the age of 14, Ricky Rubio
became the youngest person to play in the Spanish Basketball League and at 17, he was part of the Spanish
basketball team which won the silver medal at the 2008 Olympics.
Cleopatra Stratan
Singer Cleopatra was born in Moldova in 2002. She holds several world records: she is paid more than any other
child singer, she is the youngest person to receive an MTV award and she is the youngest person to have a No. 1
song in a country. It all started when Cleopatra was three. Her father Pavel, who is also a singer, was making an
album when Cleopatra picked up the microphone and began singing too. Pavel and his friends were shocked by
Cleopatra’s talent but they all decided that Cleopatra had to sing on the album too.
1. Pablo Picasso was successful / unsuccessful at primary school.
2. Pablo Picasso was / wasn’t allowed to study at the art school.
3. Ricky Rubio’s father made / let him play football when he was 10.
4. Other young singers get / don’t get as much money as Cleopatra Stratan.
5. Cleopatra wrote her first song / sang on an album when she was three.
Writing
11. Read part of a letter from your English friend William.
It’s my turn to choose a film to watch in our film club. Have you seen a good film lately? Who’s the director? And the
main actors? What’s the film about? And why did you like it?
Now write a reply to William’s letter answering his questions. Write about 80 words.
___________________________________________________________________
Hi bro. Yes, I know one, it's called the Scorpion King, it was directed by Chuck Russell, the main
actors are Dwayne Johnson and Kelly Hu. The film is about an evil ruler who is determined to
wipe out all the nomadic peoples of the desert. The few remaining tribes hire an assassin to
eliminate a sorceress who makes the king's predictions. I like the film because the plot is very
interesting and how little by little the roles change and the protagonist falls in love with the
sorceress to kill the king together.
