Writing – Part 2
I Definately [definitely] think that teenage year’s [years] should be the best in
everyones [everyone’s] life because you can have fun and you have fewer problems
than adults [add full stop]. teenagers [capital T] Teenagers know how to have a
good time. Most teenagers have a lot of freinds [friends] and they discuss things
that they are interested in. Teenagers have to be in fashion, [add comma] wearing
up-to-date cloths [clothes] and listening to modern music. They also like to do sports
and compete in matchs [matches]. But teenager’s [teenagers’] parents sometimes
have a difficult time and they dont [don’t] understand why ? [full stop, not
question mark]. Wouldnt [Wounldn’t] you feel angry if someone went into your
room without your permission. ?[question mark, not full stop] So do teenagers.
Teenagers stop thinking like children as they grow up and their believes [beliefs]
and their interests change. My opinion is that teenage years are magical and Id [I’d]
like to stay a teenager forever.

Speaker 1: Every year my familiy get togheter and go down to the river for a picnic.
There’s usually about 12 of us – kids and grown-ups. We always do the same thing
and this year I said I wasn’t going. But my parents insisted because they said it
would look rude. I wouldn’t have minded if it was just the afternoon but I wasn’t
looking forward to the whole day. When I got there though my cousin had brought a
couple of her friends and we sat togheter. I had a good time but I would still have
preferred to stay at home.
Speaker 2: Every year someone in my family arranges a day out in London for all of
us. This year my mum and I did it and we chose to go to a musical. It was difficult to
find a show that would appeal to everyone and we were a bit worried that my
granny or my cousins wouldn’t like it, as in my family everyone says what they think.
So when everyone said they’d had a great time, we knew we’d made the right
choice. Nobody complained, even when we missed the train home and we had to
wait an hour in the station.
Speaker 3: Last weekend my aunt and uncle and cousins were staying and we
decided to go out for the day. We were going to the seaside but we hadn’t gone far
when we drove past the zoo and my cousins said they wanted to go in. So we
decided we’d go in for an hour and then carry on the seaside. But there was so
much to see that we stayed there all day. My mum and dad and my granny really
aren’t keen on zoos and were looking forward to a day on the beach but the rest of
us didn’t mind at all.
Speaker 4: My sister’s birthday’s in the summer so we usually go out somewhere for
the day. She said she wanted to go to a theme park this year which was good for me
as I don’t usually want to do what she suggests. It’s a new park quite near where I
live. I only went on half the rides I wanted to because it’s huge. The whole park shut
at six – I suppose because it was getting dark. It didn’t matter though because Mum
and Dad said we can go again. They enjoyed sitting in the café and reading the
newspapers.
Speaker 5: Last Sunday I went to the seaside with my family. My brother and sister
are older than me and they didn’t really want to come but I persuaded them as
otherwise it would have been a bit boring with Mum, Dad and my grandparents.
When we got there, we had a swim in the sea and a lovely picnic which my granny
made. We agreed that we’d take a boat out in the afternoon but when we went to
get one they were all out, which was a real shame. Unfortunately, we hand’t
realised we needed to book. So we just went for another swim and then came
home.
