TWO TEENAGE GENIUSES
Ivan Mirsky is thirteen and he is the number 13 chess player in the world.
He was born in Russia but now lives in America with his father, Vadim. They live in a one-room flat in Brooklyn. Ivan doesn’t go to school and his father doesn’t have a job. They practise chess problems all day, every day, morning, afternoon, and evening.
Ivan was different from a very young age: he could ride a bike when he was eighteen months old and read before he was two. He could play cards at three and the piano at four. When he was twelve, he was the under-20 chess champion of Russia.
His father can’t speak English and can’t play chess, either! Ivan translates for him. Vadim says, ’I know that I can’t play chess, but I can still help Ivan. He and I don’t have any friends-we don’t want any friends. Other teenagers are boring! We don’t like playing sports or watching TV. We live for chess!’
Jaya Rajah is fourteen, but he doesn’t go to school. He studies medicine at New York University in a class of twenty-year-olds. Jaya was born in Madras in India but now lives in a house in New York with his mother, father, and brother. They can all speak English fluently. His father is a doctor.
Jaya was different from a very young age. He could count before he could say ‘Mummy’ or ‘Daddy’. He could answer questions on calculus when he was five and do algebra when he was eight. Now he studies from 8.15 to 4.00 every day at the university. Then he studies at home with his father from 6.30 to 10.00 every evening. Jaya doesn’t have any friends. He never goes out in the evenings, but he sometimes watches TV. He says, ‘I live for one thing — I want to be a doctor before I am seventeen. Other children of my age are boring. They can’t understand me.’

If We Hold On Together
Diana Ross
Don't lose your way
With each passing day
You're come so far
Don't throw it away
Live believing
Dreams are for wearing
Wonders are waiting to start
Live your story,
Faith,hope and glory
Hold to the truth in your heart
Chorus :
If we hold on together
I know our dreams will never die
Dreams see us through to forever
When clouds roll by
For you and I
Souls in the wind
must learn how to bend
Seek out a star
Hold on till the end
Valley, mountain,
There is a fountain
Washes our tears all away
Words are swaying,
Someone is praying
Please let us come home to stay
[Chorus]
When we are out there in the dark
We'll dream about the sun
In the dark we'll feel the light
Warm our hearts, everyone
If we hold on together
I know our dreams
Will never die
Dreams see us through to forever
As high as souls can fly
The clouds roll by
For you and....I
Don't lose your way

A Is there a stereo?
B Yes, there is.
A Is there a clock?
B No, there isn't.
A Are there any book?
B Yes, there are.
A Are there any magazines?
B No, there aren't.
Picture A
There are four pictures on the walls and a mirror. There are three people in the room, a man, a woman, and a girl. There's a lovely fire and the cat is in front of the fire, sleeping. There's a lamp near the window, and a clock on the wall near the mirror. There's a photo on the television and there are some newspapers on the floor near the television. There's a glass of beer on the table in front of the man. The television isn't on.
Picture B
There are two people in the room. There's a man on the sofa and a woman next to him. The cat's in front of the fire. There are four pictures on the walls. There are two plants, one on the left of the fire and one on the right. On the table in front of the man there are some cups and some books and on the table next to the sofa there is a telephone.
It's a modern kitchen, nice and clean with a lot of cupboards. There's a washing machine, a fridge and a cooker, but there isn't a diswasher. There are some lovely pictures on the walls, but there aren't any photographs. There's a radio near the cooker. There are some flowers, but there aren't any plants. On the table there are some apples and oranges. Ah! And there are some cups and plates next to the sink.
What's in my bag? Well, there's a newspaper — a French newspaper — and there's my dictionary. I have some pens, three, I think. There's a photo of my wife and a photo of my children. I have my notebook for vocabulary, of course. I write words in that everyday. I have some keys, and that's all! I don't have any stamps and I don't have a bus ticket. Oh, and I have a letter, from my bank manager. He wants my money!
Where they live...
Anne-Marie
I live in a house in the country in Provence in the south of France. It's an old farmhouse, about five hundred years old, with very thick walls, so it's warm in winter and cool in summer, but it's difficult to look after because it's so old. There are three bedrooms, two quite big and one small, and they have wonderful views over the countryside. I have a garden where I grow flowers and vegetables. I live with my animals! I have two dogs and eight cats.
Harry
Where I live things are big. I live in Texas — that's the second biggest state in the USA — and I live with my wife and our four children. We have ten cars because we all like driving. Sometimes we drive 150 kilometres to go to a restaurant! Our house is three years old, and it's kind of big. There are fourteen or fifteen bedrooms, I don't know exactly, and outside there are two swimming pools and... a golf course ... and some grass for my plane to land on.
Dave and Maggie
Maggie We have a small house in an area of Dublin called Donnybrook. It's quite a small house. There's a living room and a kitchen downstairs, and then two small bedrooms upstairs, but it's big enough for us. There's my husband and me, and our son, Thomas.
Dave The houses around here are about a hundred years old and people are very friendly. People don't want to move away, they want to live near their family, so my parents are very close...
Maggie ...and my mother lives next door! We have a small garden where Thomas plays, and I go out and have a chat with my mother!
Thanos
I live in a flat on the fourth floor. I live alone. There's a kitchen where I cook and eat, a living room with a balcony, and two small bedrooms. I live in Athina — you say Athens in English — but not in the centre of town because there are too many cars. It's a nice area. The shops aren't too far, and the flat is comfortable. It's about five years old, which I like. I don't like old buildings.

Mr Forrester's holidays
“Every spring the children go skiing, so my wife and I go to Paris on holiday. We stay in a hotel near the River Seine. We have breakfast in the hotel, but we have lunch in a restaurant. French food is delicious! We walk a lot, but sometimes we go by taxi. After four days we don't want to go home and go back to work.”
The Seasons
AL WHEELER FROM CANADA
We have long, cold winters and short, hot summers. In summer I go sailing and I play baseball, but in winter I play ice hockey and go ice-skating. We have a holihay home near a lake, so I go fishing a lot, too. My favourite season is autumn, or fall, as we say in North America. I love the colours of the trees-red, gold, orange, yellow, and brown.
MANUELA DA SILVA FROM PORTUGAL
People think it's always warm and sunny in Portugal, but January and February are often cold, wet, and grey. I don't like winter. I meet friends in restaurants and bars and we chat. Sometimes we go to a Brazilian bar. I love Brazilian music. But then suddenly it's summer and at weekends we drive to the beach, sunbathe, and go windsurfing. I love summer.
TOSHI SUZUKI FROM JAPAN
I work for Pentax cameras, in the export department. I don't have a lot of free time, but I have once special hobby — taking photographs, of course! I like taking photographs of flowers, especially in spring. Sometimes, after work, I relax in a bar near my office with friends. My friend, Shigeru, likes singing pop songs in the bar. This has a special name, Karaoke. I don't sing — I'm too shy! I just watch him.

Mr Forrester
Mr and Mrs Forrester have a son and a daughter. The son lives at home, and the daughter is a student at university. Mr Forrester is a journalist. He works for The Times. He writes articles about restaurants. “I love food!” he says.
Mr Forrester's holidays
“Every spring the children go skiing, so my wife and I go to Paris on holiday. We stay in a hotel near the River Seine. We have breakfast in the hotel, but we have lunch in a restaurant. French food is delicious! We walk a lot, but sometimes we go by taxi. After four days we don't want to go home and go back to work.”
The Seasons
AL WHEELER FROM CANADA
We have long, cold winters and short, hot summers. In summer I go sailing and I play baseball, but in winter I play ice hockey and go ice-skating. We have a holihay home near a lake, so I go fishing a lot, too. My favourite season is autumn, or fall, as we say in North America. I love the colours of the trees-red, gold, orange, yellow, and brown.
MANUELA DA SILVA FROM PORTUGAL
People think it's always warm and sunny in Portugal, but January and February are often cold, wet, and grey. I don't like winter. I meet friends in restaurants and bars and we chat. Sometimes we go to a Brazilian bar. I love Brazilian music. But then suddenly it's summer and at weekends we drive to the beach, sunbathe, and go windsurfing. I love summer.
TOSHI SUZUKI FROM JAPAN
I work for Pentax cameras, in the export department. I don't have a lot of free time, but I have once special hobby — taking photographs, of course! I like taking photographs of flowers, especially in spring. Sometimes, after work, I relax in a bar near my office with friends. My friend, Shigeru, likes singing pop songs in the bar. This has a special name, Karaoke. I don't sing — I'm too shy! I just watch him.

Dear David,
How are you? I'm fine. I'm in London, at the International School of English. I'm in class 3 with eight other students. They're all from different countries — Spain, France, Japan, Argentina, Switzerland and Thailand. Our teacher's name is Peter Briscall. He's very nice. He's funny and he's a very good teacher.
My new address is at the top of the letter. I'm with an English family, the Browns. Mr and Mrs Brown have three children. Thomas is fourteen, Catherine is twelve, and Andrew is seven. They are all very friendly, but it isn't easy to understand them!
London is very big and very interesting. The weather is good — cold but sunny — and the parks are beautiful! Hyde Park, Green Park, and St James' Park are all in the centre. It isn't easy to use the Underground, but I understand it now. It's very expensive!
English food is OK, but the coffee is horrible!
Write to me soon.
Love, Paola.
P.S. Is my English OK?

I Just Call To Say I Love You
Bandari
No new years's day
to celebrate
no chocolate covered candy hearts to give away
no first of spring
no song to sing
in fact here's just another ordinary day
No April rain
no flowers bloom
no wedding saturday within the month of June
But what it is
Is something true
Made up of these three words that I must say to you
I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart
No summer's high
No warm July
No harvest moon to light one tender August night
No autumn breeze
No falling leaves
Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies
No libra sun
No Halloween
No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring
But what it is
Though old so new
To fill your heart like no three words Could ever do.
I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart.
I just called to say I love you
I just called to say how much I care
I just called to say I love you
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart
Of my heart
Of my heart

Khổng Tú Quỳnh ft. Tonny Việt
Tonny:
Thôi đã qua cứ qua thà rằng mình chia ly,
cho đôi mi mau khô thà đừng thương nhớ,
dẫu bên em anh sai để người ra đi, xót xa bên nhau,
xin em đừng nuối tiếc chi…
Cưu mang con tim, anh sẽ bước đi
Cho em quên đi một dấu yêu đã khắc ghi
Dẫu trên đôi mi, hạt tuyết rơi
Thầm lê bước chân đêm lạnh giá
Đêm đông phôi pha anh sao níu chân
Tuyết rơi trong tim vùi lấp tiếng yêu nơi đây
Hơi ấm trên tay sưởi ấm lên
Nụ hôn ta đã.. Trao nhau giờ xa mất rồi
Why not head to the hoang anh
Khổng Tú Quỳnh :
Nhớ nơi đây cùng hạt mưa tuyết rơi êm đềm.
Tuyết rơi rơi, tuyết đơn côi cùng những đêm tối.
Bao đông trôi chìm trong giá buốt nỡ chia đôi.
Tuyết không vui, biết chia phôi người đã đi rồi.
Đôi tay ai một lần đã hứa xóa tan đi.
Tuyết chia ly, ướt đôi mi người đã như thế.
Trong cơn mê từng hạt tuyết trắng nơi thiên đường.
Biết yêu thương sẽ không vương tựa tuyết thiên đường.
Tonny:
Sao đông trôi để nghe chơi vơi … lòng sao buông lơi… mỗi khi tuyết rơi… đã thôi sao anh mình anh cô đơn lệ nhòa… Tìm đâu nữa những ân tình xưa… Ngàn lời hứa khi em vội đưa… Tuyết rơi khi em vội đi, sao em vội xa…
Hạt tuyết chia ly lạnh thâm đôi mi .. làm sao quên đi .. sao vơi khi khắc ghi riêng em mình em cớ sao vội xa … Từng hạt tuyết đã phai tàn mau… và mùa đông lại mang đớn đau… Giá băng đêm thâu, biết em nơi đâu anh vẫn yêu!
Khổng Tú Quỳnh:
Nhớ nơi đây cùng hạt mưa tuyết rơi êm đềm.
Tuyết rơi rơi, tuyết đơn côi cùng những đêm tối.

After some time I've finally made up my mind
She is the girl and I really want to make her mine
I'm searching everywhere to find her again
To tell her I love her
And I'm sorry 'bout the things I've done
I find her standing in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looks so happy in her wedding dress
But she's crying while she's saying this
Chorus:
Boy I missed your kisses all the time but this is
Twenty five minutes too late
Though you travelled so far boy I'm sorry you are
Twenty five minutes too late
Against the wind I'm going home again
Wishing be back to the time when we were more than
friends
Still I see her in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looks so happy in her wedding dress
But she's cried while she's saying this
Chorus
Out in the streets
Places where hungry hearts have nothing to eat
Inside my head
Still I can hear the words she said
I can still hear what she said
She is the girl and I really want to make her mine
I'm searching everywhere to find her again
To tell her I love her
And I'm sorry 'bout the things I've done
I find her standing in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looks so happy in her wedding dress
But she's crying while she's saying this
Chorus:
Boy I missed your kisses all the time but this is
Twenty five minutes too late
Though you travelled so far boy I'm sorry you are
Twenty five minutes too late
Against the wind I'm going home again
Wishing be back to the time when we were more than
friends
Still I see her in front of the church
The only place in town where I didn't search
She looks so happy in her wedding dress
But she's cried while she's saying this
Chorus
Out in the streets
Places where hungry hearts have nothing to eat
Inside my head
Still I can hear the words she said
I can still hear what she said
Forever
Westlife
I'll be loving you forever
deep inside my heart you'll leave me never
even if you took my heart and tore it apart
I would love you still, forever
you are the sun
you are my life
and your the last thing on my mind before I go to
sleep at night
you're always round when I'm in need
when troubles on my mind you put my soul at ease
there is no one in this world, who could love me like
you do
that is the reasons that I wanna spend forever with you
I'll be loving you forever
deep inside my heart you'll leave me never
even if you took my heart and tore it apart
I would love you still, forever
we´ve had our fun
and we've made mistakes
but who'd have guessed along the road we'd learn to
give and take
it's so much more than i could have dreamed, I could
have dreamed
cause you make loving you so easy for me
there is no one in this world, who could love me like you do
that is the reason that I wanna spend forever with you
I'll be loving you forever (forever)
deep inside my heart you'll leave me never (you never leave, no)
even if you took my heart (took my heart)
and tore it apart (and tore it appart girl)
I would love you still, forever
and girl I pray you´ll leave me never
cos this is the world where lovers often go astray
but if we love each other we won't go that way
so put your doubts aside
do what it takes to make it right
cos i love you forever no one can tear us apart.
I'll be loving you forever (forever)
deep inside my heart you'll leave me never
even if you took my heart (took my heart, girl) and
tore it apart (and tore it apart, now )
I would love you still, forever (forever)
I'll be loving you forever (forever)
deep inside my heart you'll leave me never
even if you took my heart (took my heart girl) and
tore it apart (and tore it appart now)
I would love you still, forever
I'll be loving you forever
deep inside my heart you'll leave me never
even if you took my heart and tore it apart
I would love you still, forever
ONLY LOVE
Westlife
2 A.M. and the rain is falling
Here we are at the crossroads once again
You're tellin me you're so confused
You can't make up your mind
Is this meant to be
You're asking me
But only love can say - Try again or walk away
But I believe for you and me
The sun will shine one day
So I'll just play my part
And pray you'll have a change of heart
But I can't make you see it through
That's something only love can do
In your arms as the dawn is breaking
Face to face and a thousand miles apart
I've tried my best to make you see
There's hope beyond the pain
If we give enough - If we learn to trust
CHORUS
I know if I could find the words
To touch you deep inside
You'd givve our dream just one more chance
Don't let this be our good-bye
CHORUS
I Lay My Love On You
Westlife
Just a smile and the rain is gone
Can hardly believe it (yeah)
There's an angel standing next to me
Reaching for my heart
Just a smile and there's no way back
Can hardly believe it (yeah)
But there's an angel, she's calling me
Reaching for my heart
I know, that I'll be ok now
This time it's real
I lay my love on you
It's all I wanna do
Everytime I breathe I feel brand new
You open up my heart
Show me all your love, and walk right through
As I lay my love on you
I was lost in a lonely place
Could hardly even believe it (yeah)
Holding on to yesterdays
Far, far too long
Now I believe its ok cause this time it's real
I lay my love on you
It's all I wanna do
Everytime I breathe I feel brand new
You open up my heart
Show me all your love, and walk right through
As I lay my love on you
I never knew that love could fell soo good
Like once in a lifetime
You change my world
I lay my love on you
You make me feel brand new
Show me all your love, and walk right through
As I lay my love on you
I lay my love on you
It's all I wanna do
Everytime I breathe I feel brand new
You open up my heart
Show me all your love, and walk right through
As I lay my love on you
I lay my love on you
You make me feel brand new
You open up my heart
Show me all your love, and walk right through
As I lay my love on you
As I lay my love on you
My love
An empty street
And empty house
A hole inside my heart
I'm all alone
The rooms are getting smaller
I wonder how
I wonder why
I wonder where they are
The days we had
The song we sang together
And all my love
I'm holding on forever
Reaching for the love that seem so far...
So I say a little prayer
And hope my dream will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again my love
oversees from coast to coast
to find the place i love the most
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again my love
I try to read
I go to work
I'm laughing with my friends
But I can't stop to keep myself from thinking
I wonder how
I wonder why
I wonder where they are
The days we had
The song we sang together
And all my love
I'm holding on forever
Reaching for a love that seem so far...
Chorus
Bridge
To hold u in my arms
To promise u my love
To tell u from my heart
You're all I'm thinking of
I'm reaching for a love that seem so far...
Chorus
And empty house
A hole inside my heart
I'm all alone
The rooms are getting smaller
I wonder how
I wonder why
I wonder where they are

The song we sang together
And all my love
I'm holding on forever
Reaching for the love that seem so far...
So I say a little prayer
And hope my dream will take me there
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again my love
oversees from coast to coast
to find the place i love the most
Where the skies are blue
To see you once again my love
I try to read

To hold u in my arms
To promise u my love
To tell u from my heart

Yesterday Once More
Carpenters
When i was young
I'd listened to the radio
Waitin' for my favorite songs
Waiting they played i'd sing along
It made me smile
Those were such happy times
And not so long ago
How i wondered where they'd gone
But they're back again
Just like a long lost friend
All the songs i loved so well
(*) every sha-la-la-la
Every wo-wo-wo
Still shines
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're starting to sing's
So fine
When they get to the part
Where he's breakin' her heart
It can really make me cry
Just like before
It's yesterday once more
Lookin' back on how it was
In years gone by
And the good times that i had
Makes today seem rather sad
So much has changed
It was songs of love that
I would sing to then
And i'd memorize each word
Those old melodies
Still sound so good to me
As they melt the years away
Repeat (*)
All my best memories
Come back clearly to me
Some can even make me cry
Just like before
It's yesterday once more
Repeat (*)

Yesterday
The Beatles
Yesterday, all my trouble seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Suddenly,
Im not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh, yesterday came suddenly
Why she had to go
I dont know she wouldn't say
I said something wrong
Now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Why she had to go
I dont know she wouldn't say
I said something wrong
Now I long for yesterday
Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play
Now I need a place to hide away
Oh, I believe in yesterday
.....mm...mmm....

fool gaden
I'm sitting here in a boring room
It's just another rainy Sunday afternoon
I'm wasting my time I got nothing to do
I'm hanging around I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens - and I wonder
I'm driving around in my car
I'm driving too fast I'm driving too far
I'd like to change my point of view
I feel so lonely I'm waiting for you
But nothing ever happens - and I wonder
*I wonder how I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout a blue blue sky
And all that I can see
It's just a yellow lemon tree
I'm turning my head up and down
I'm turning turning turning turning
turning around
And all that I can see
It's just another yellow lemon tree*
I'm sitting here I miss there power
I'd like to go out taking a shower
But there's a heavy cloud inside my head
I feel so tired put myself into bed
Where nothing ever happens - and I wonder
Isolation - is not good for me
Isolation - I don't want to sit on a lemon tree
I'm stepping around in a desert of joy
Baby anyhow
I'll get another toy and everything will
happen and you'll wonder
Repeat*

Don't Cry Joni
Conway Twitty - Joni Lee
Don't cry Joni
(Chorus 1)
Jimmy, please say you'll wait for me
I ll grow up some day you ll see
Saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love for ever true.
Joni was the girl who lived next door
I ve known her, I guess, ten years or more
Joni wrote me a note one day
And this is what she had to say
(Chorus 1)
Slowly I read her note once more
Then I went over to the house next door
Her teardrops fell like rain that day
When I told Joni what I had to say.
(Chorus 2)
Joni, Joni,please don t cry
You ll forget me by and by
You re just fifteen, I am twenty-two
And Joni, I just can't wait for you.
Soon I left our little hometown
Got me a job and tried to settle down
But the words kept haunting my memory
The words that Joni said to me
(Chorus 1)
I packed my clothes and I caught a plane
I had to see Joni, I had to explain
How my heart was filled with her memory
And ask my Joni if she'd marry me
I ran all the way to the house next door
But things weren t like they were before.
My teardrops fell like rain that day
When I heard what Joni had to say
(Chorus 3)
Jimmy, Jimmy,please don t cry
You'll forget me by and by
It's been five years since you ve been gone
Jimmy, I married your best friend John
Hello
I've been alone with you inside my mind
And in my dreams I've kissed your lips a thousand times
I sometimes see you pass outside my door
Hello,
Is it me you're looking for?
I can see it in your eyes
I can see it in your smile
You're all I've ever wanted, (and) my arms are open wide
'Cause you know just what to say
And you know just what to do
And I want to tell you so much,
I love you...
I long to see the sunlight in your hair
And tell you time and time again how much I care
Sometimes I feel my heart will overflow
Hello,
I've just got to let you know
'Cause I wonder where you are
And I wonder what you do
Are you somewhere feeling lonely, or is someone loving you?
Tell me how to win your heart
For I haven't got a clue
But let me start by saying,
I love you...
