The club is for teenagers under sixteen, so everyone is very friendly. Owen loves working with his team, and he hopes to participate in local competitions next year. When practice finishes, he usually stays at the centre to talk with his friends. It is great fun!
Dylan Brown
Dylan started playing badminton last month after his uncle told him about the local club. The players meet at the local school on Thursday evenings after seven o'clock. Dylan didn't have a racket, so he got one from his teacher. He always goes to the sports hall by car because his mum drives him there. Dylan played a match last week, which was very exciting. When he came home, he went straight to bed because he was very tired.
Camila Carter
Camila joined a weekend running club in her town earlier this year. The club meets in a big park on Sunday afternoons. She always walks there because she lives nearby.

Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.
Leo's First Month at the Climbing Club
Last month, I wanted to try an indoor sport because the weather was getting colder. I visited our local sports centre and saw their large climbing wall. The climbers were smiling and encouraging each other, and the weekly price was quite cheap, so I bought a membership.
At my first practice, I felt nervous when our coach, Dan, showed us the highest wall in the hall. However, he was very patient with beginners. He explained every movement carefully and stayed near us until we felt safe on the ropes.
When I started, I did not know any other members because they went to different schools. However, everyone was very friendly. We often talked while resting between climbs, and two boys in my group soon became my best friends.
Last Saturday, Dan arranged a special event for us to test our climbing skills. Before my turn, my hands were shaking. But once I began, I remembered all of Dan's instructions. I reached the top without falling. I did not get a medal, but I was really proud of my climb.
Joining the club has been a wonderful experience. In the past, I usually chose easy games because I did not want to fail. Now I know that trying difficult challenges can be exciting. Next term, I plan to help my younger brother learn to climb too.

- He already knew them from different schools.
- He found them friendly but still hard to talk to.
- He developed good friendships with them.
How did Leo feel about the climbing event on Saturday?
- Pleased with what he achieved
- Relieved that the event was finally over
- Disappointed about missing a prize
In the final paragraph, what does Leo say?
- He is excited to try a more difficult club next term.
- He understands taking on hard tasks can be fun.
- He now picks easy games so his brother can win.

They use large blocks of ice from a local river to make the walls, rooms, and beds. Because the hotel disappears in the warm spring, the rooms are never the each year.
Inside the cold rooms, guests sleep in warm beds with thick animal fur. Today, modern technology has made it to keep part of the hotel open in summer. People who want to stay there should the hotel early to get a room. Staying in a room made of ice is a great experience that visitors will never .
