The town

The streets go up,

The streets go down

And in and out

About the town.

And in the streets

The buses run,

Two by two,

Or one by one.

What do you like for breakfast?

Hi, I’m Abdel from Egypt. I sometimes eat bread with jam or cheese. But usually I eat fuul and bread for breakfast. Fuul is mashed beans. It’s great with olive oil and flat bread. I sometimes have an egg with it,

too.

My name’s Pete. I’m from Scotland. For breakfast, I usually have a bowl of cereal with milk, and then toast with butter. We have lots of different cereals at home, but my favourite is cornflakes. I don’t have a very big breakfast because I eat lunch early at school.

Hi. Everyone. I’m Huong and I come from Vietnam. For breakfast, I usually have noodle soup. My grandma makes it every morning. Sometimes I have xoi. These are balls of ricewith beans. They are wrapped in coconut leaves and are really yummy.

I’m at my friend’s house to eat and play.

But the food isn’t what I eat each day.

I rarely eat carrots. But I’m eating them right now.

I didn’t know I liked them. But I really love them now.

 

I usually drink water. But I’m drinking juice today.

I didn’t know I liked to have fruit this way.

I’m at my friend’s house to eat and play.

The food is delicious, what a wonderful day.

What are you going to do on your birthday?

Elena Buenaventura Madrid "My twenty-first birthday is on Saturday, and I'm going to go out with some friends. To wish me a happy birthday, they're going to pull on my ear 21 times - once for each year. It's an old custom. Some people pull on the ear just once, but my friends are very traditional!"	Yan-Ching Shi Taipei "Tomorrow is my sixteenth birthday. It's a special birthday, so we're going to have a family ceremony. I'm probably going to get some money in lucky' envelopes from my relatives. My mother is going to cook noodles - noodles are for a long life."
Mr. and Mrs. Aoki Kyoto "My husband is going to be 60 tomorrow. In Japan, the sixtieth birthday is called kanreki- it's the beginning of a new life. The color red represents a new life, so children often give something red as a present. What are our children going to give him? A red hat and vest!"	Philippe Joly Paris "I'm going to be 30 next week, so I'm going to invite three very good friends out to dinner. In France, when you have a birthday, you often invite people out. In some countries, I know it's the opposite - people take you out."
