Advice on doing homework

Damian, 13

I don't mind doing homework, especially when I play some jazz (and not pop) on my phone. When I do, I'm able to think more carefully about what I'm doing. Sometimes I really enjoy doing my homework, especially when it's maths and I understand it well. Or when one of my classmates comes to my place and we study together. I find it's best if I let my parents and sister know I'm busy so they don't come into my room and spend all evening talking to me!

Louis, 11

When I started doing my homework in my room every morning, it wasn't a great success. I always found something more interesting to do! But these days, I don't have the same problem. I just go to my room in the evening, switch on the light, sit down at my desk and do it. I do love music, but if l put my MP3 player on, I start to think about the song and not the homework! So I don't listen while I work. It’s the same problem if my mum or dad put music on in the next room. I turn my mobile off or put it away before I start. That helps too.

Jackson, 14

I usually do most of my homework before I go to bed. And then I do a bit more as soon as I wake up. I've always found it easy to do that. I'II maybe look at my German vocabulary for five minutes before breakfast. I tell my friends at school: “If you want to do your homework well, make sure your room is nice and bright. Otherwise, you’ll fall asleep!”

Which person says it's better not to look at his phone while he's doing his homework?

Which person sometimes does homework with a friend?

Which person tells his family when he is working?

Which person says that there must be enough light in his room so he can work?

Which person thinks that listening to music helps with homework?

Which person works in the morning and evening?

Read the following passage then choose the best answer to each question below.

A wonderful year
Ben Jones talks about his year of travel before studying at university.

I always knew I wanted to spend a year traveling before university. I wanted to see the world, improve my skiing, make new friends from other countries and, more than anything, try lots of things I've never done before.

The first place I visited was France. I've always loved the French language and I wanted to study it. Then, while I was there, I became interested in French food. I took some cooking lessons at a farmhouse in the French countryside and learned to make lots of lovely dishes.

Next, I visited Australia. My cousins live near the river in Sydney, so I had somewhere to stay. To begin with, we spent a lot of time sailing in their boat. But then I got a job in a hotel. It was great - the customers and staff were so friendly.

My last country was Japan, where I learned to become a skiing teacher. I planned to do a three-week course. But when I got there, I saw that I wasn't actually that good, so I changed to a seven-week one. The course was amazing and afterward, I got a job with a skiing company.

The other teachers were very friendly and on our days off, we did activities like snowboarding. One weekend we even did winter camping. That was quite interesting, but it was cold, so I can't say I slept well! Anyway, we're all planning to meet up soon and I can't wait.

A school trip to the theatre
