Úloha 1

A: Hi Emma, do you have any plans for this weekend? I am going to the cinema with a few friends on Saturday, and I would love if you could join us.

B: That sounds really nice, but I am afraid I cannot come. I am going to visit my grandparents. They live in a small village about an hour away from the city.

A: Oh, I see. Is it far from here, or can you get there by car or bus?

B: My dad usually drives me there, and we leave early in the morning. The village is very peaceful, and the air is fresh.

A: It sounds lovely. What do you usually do with your grandparents?

B: We often go for walks in the forest near their house. My grandpa likes to tell me stories about the trees and animals. Sometimes we watch birds or pick wild berries. My grandma cooks delicious meals too.

A: That is wonderful. I love spending time in nature. It must be fun to hear your grandpa’s stories.

B: Yes, it is. He knows a lot about plants and local history. I really enjoy my weekends there, even if there is no cinema or shopping mall.

A: I understand. Have a great time with your grandparents, Emma. We can go to the cinema another day.

B: Thank you. Let me know how the movie is, and I will see you at school on Monday!

Úloha 2

A: Mum, do you have time to go to the shopping center with me today? I really need a new pair of trainers.

B: Trainers? Are you sure you need them right now? We bought you new ones last month, if I remember correctly.

A: Yes, but those are already too small for me. My feet grew faster than I expected. When I wear them, they hurt a bit.

B: Alright. I suppose we can look for trainers. But remember, we cannot spend too much time in the shops.

A: No problem, Mum. I only want to buy trainers this time, I promise. I do not need new T-shirts or jeans.

B: I am glad to hear that, because you have enough clothes for now. Let’s go after lunch. Maybe around two o’clock?

A: Yes, that’s perfect. I will finish my homework, and then we can leave.

B: Do you have an idea about what kind of trainers you want? Running shoes, or something more casual?

A: I think I want running shoes. They are comfortable for school sports and also look good with my jeans.

B: That makes sense. Alright, let’s get ready after lunch.

Úloha 3

A: Lisa, I remember you used to play tennis every weekend. Do you still play, or have you changed your sport?

B: I stopped playing tennis last year. It was fun, but I wanted to try something new. Now I go swimming twice a week at the local pool.

A: That sounds good. Do you swim in the mornings or in the afternoons?

B: I usually go in the afternoons, right after school. Sometimes my friend comes with me, but often I just go alone.

A: Do you compete in swimming races, or do you just do it for exercise?

B: I do not compete. I only swim for fun and to keep fit. It helps me relax, and it is good for my back and shoulders.

A: That is great. Some people prefer running or basketball, but swimming is also a fantastic workout.

B: Yes, it is. I like running too, but swimming is my favorite sport right now. Maybe in the future I will try something else.

A: Well, keep it up, Lisa. Let me know if you ever want a running partner.

B: Thanks. I appreciate that, but for now, I’m happy in the water.

Úloha 4

A: Hey Tom, are you going to eat pizza for lunch again today? I know you love pizza.

B: Normally, yes, but not today. I have something different. My mum made spaghetti this morning before she went to work.

A: Spaghetti? That sounds delicious. Are they with tomato sauce or something else?

B: It’s a simple tomato sauce with a little cheese on top. I love it because it tastes fresh.

A: That is nice. I am having a sandwich for lunch. My dad packed it for me. It has ham, cheese, and some salad inside.

B: Sandwiches are great too, but spaghetti is my absolute favorite. I do not get it every day, so I am really excited.

A: Good for you! Did you ever try having salad with your spaghetti? Some people like to eat spaghetti with a small side salad.

B: That might be good, but I do not have any salad right now. I just have the spaghetti in my lunch box.

A: That is okay. Enjoy your pasta. Maybe tomorrow we can eat pizza together.

B: Sounds like a plan. Let’s see what is on the menu tomorrow!

A (Jake): Hi, Mia! How was your holiday? It feels like summer went by so fast, and I only saw a few photos from your trip.

B (Mia): Hi, Jake! It was wonderful. My family and I went to Spain. It was my first time abroad, so I was very excited.

A: Wow, Spain! Which city did you visit?

B: We spent three days in Barcelona. It was amazing. We saw the Sagrada Familia and walked along La Rambla. My mom loved the local food, especially paella. The city was busy, but it was beautiful.

A: That sounds great. Did you also go to the beach?

B: Yes, we did! We stayed near the sea, so I went swimming every day. My little brother loves the water. He built sandcastles on the beach. The weather was hot, and the sea was warm.

A: That is perfect. I stayed here in town all summer and worked at a local café. I made coffee and sandwiches. At first, I was nervous, but the owner was kind, and my co-workers were helpful.

B: That’s great! Did you meet a lot of people there?

A: Yes. Many tourists came to the café. Some were from Germany and some from the United States. I practiced my English with them, and they told me about their travels.

B: That sounds interesting. Are you saving your money for something special?

A: Yes! I want to visit Italy. I really want to see Rome and Venice. I love history, and I have never been there.

B: I have never been to Italy either, but I want to go. Maybe we can travel together. I still have some money left from my Spain trip, and I can save more if I find a part-time job.

A: That would be great! We can look for cheap flights online and plan our trip. Maybe we can go next summer or even during spring break.

B: Yes, good idea. Travel is fun, and we can learn new languages. I practiced Spanish phrases like “hola” and “gracias” in Barcelona. People were friendly and helped me when I tried to speak their language.

A: That’s nice! I want to learn some Italian words before we go. Maybe we can start with “ciao” and “grazie.”

B: Exactly! Let’s make a list of places to visit. I also heard that Florence is beautiful, with famous art and museums.

A: We should not miss that. We can talk to our parents about the best time to go. I think we can manage a short trip if we plan well.

B: For sure. I am already excited. Oh, by the way, we also visited a small town near Barcelona called Sitges. It had a lovely beach, little shops, and tasty desserts. I tried churros with hot chocolate. They were so sweet!

A: Sounds delicious. Did your brother like them too?

B: Yes, but he ate too many and had a stomach ache for a morning. He was fine by the afternoon, though. We still enjoyed the rest of our time there.

A: I’m glad he felt better quickly. It sounds like you had a great holiday.

B: We really did. Now I’m back home and ready to plan our next trip. Maybe we can meet tomorrow at your café and look at travel websites together?

A: That’s a perfect idea. Let’s do it.

B: Great! I’ll come by in the afternoon.

A: Sure! See you then, Mia.

B: See you tomorrow, Jake!

My name is Emma, and I have just moved to a new flat in London. Before, I lived with my parents in a small town, but now I live in the city. My brother Tom helped me move my things. He is very strong, so he carried all the heavy boxes. It took us almost a full day to move everything, and by the evening, I was very tired.

My flat is not very big, but I love it. It has three rooms – a living room, a bedroom, and a kitchen. The kitchen is blue. I chose this color because it makes me feel happy. The bedroom is small, but it has a big window. I can see a park from my window, and in the morning, I hear birds singing. The living room is my favorite place. It has a comfortable sofa. I bought the sofa at a furniture shop in the city center.

I still need some things for my flat. Last night, I cooked pasta for the first time in my new kitchen. It was delicious! My brother came over for dinner, and we talked about our jobs and summer plans. He said my flat is very nice and that he would love to have a place like this one day.

The area around my flat is interesting. There is a small café next to my building. I go there every morning to buy coffee. The lady who works there is very friendly, and she always remembers my order. There is also a small bakery nearby, and they make amazing croissants. I often buy one for breakfast.

In the evening, I like to walk around my neighborhood. There is a park five minutes away, and I enjoy watching people walk their dogs. Sometimes, I sit on a bench and read a book. It’s a quiet area, which I really like.

Next week, my best friend Lisa will visit. We will drink tea and watch a film together. I am excited to show her my new home. I also want to decorate my flat with some pictures and plants. I think plants will make it feel more cozy.

Moving was hard work, but now I feel happy in my new home. I am excited for the future and all the memories I will make here!

Mom: David, what are your plans for Sunday morning?

David: I was thinking about going for a run in the park. I need to get more exercise.

Mom: That sounds great, but don’t forget that you promised to help your dad in the garden.

David: Oh, I forgot about that. What does he need help with?

Mom: He’s fixing the fence, and he needs someone to hold the wooden panels while he works.

David: That sounds easy. What time does he want to start?

Mom: Around nine in the morning. It shouldn’t take too long.

David: So I can still go running afterward, right?

Mom: Yes, in the afternoon, if you have enough energy left!

David: I think I’ll be fine. It’s important to stay active.

Mom: Well, let’s see how you feel after working in the garden!

Úloha 1

A: Hey Ben, have you decided where you are going on holiday this year? The last time we talked, you said you might go to the mountains.

B: Yes, we were planning to go to the mountains because my parents love hiking. But they changed their minds last week.

A: Really? Why did they change their plans?

B: My mum thought it would be too cold and rainy there. So now we are going to the seaside instead.

A: That sounds exciting. I know you enjoy swimming.

B: Yes, I do. I cannot wait to swim in the sea and build sandcastles on the beach. I also want to play beach volleyball with my dad.

A: That’s a great idea. How long will you stay at the seaside?

B: We will be there for one week. We are leaving on Saturday morning and coming back the following Sunday.

A: Nice! Are you staying in a hotel, or did you rent an apartment?

B: We rented a small apartment near the beach, so I can walk there anytime I want.

A: Wow, that’s perfect. Enjoy your holiday, Ben!

B: Thanks! I hope you also have a good summer break.

Úloha 2

A: Hi Sophie, how are you? I am studying for our history test. It’s a lot of dates and facts.

B: I’m okay, but I have trouble remembering all the historical events. History is not my favorite subject. I find it a bit boring sometimes.

A: Oh, I didn’t know that. I thought you liked history because you always do well on tests.

B: I do study hard, but it is not very interesting for me. I prefer subjects like science and math.

A: That’s cool. Which one do you like more, math or science?

B: I like math, but my favorite subject is science, especially biology. I love learning about animals and plants.

A: That’s nice. Do you want to study biology in the future?

B: Maybe. I am not sure yet, but I enjoy science classes a lot. We do experiments, and we learn about the human body, chemistry, and physics too.

A: That sounds fun. I enjoy math more, but science is also interesting. Good luck with your future plans, Sophie!

B: Thanks, and good luck with your history study. I hope we both do well on the test.

Úloha 3

I am so excited about the party on Saturday evening.

At first, I could not decide what to wear. I thought about wearing my comfy jeans and a T-shirt, because that is my usual school outfit. However, this party is a bit special, with music and dancing. I want to look slightly more elegant than normal.

Then, I considered wearing my tracksuit, because it is easy to move in and very comfortable. But I realized it might be too casual for a party. On the other hand, I also have a fancy evening dress, which seems too formal. I do not want to feel overdressed or unable to dance comfortably.

Finally, I decided on a skirt and blouse. This outfit is not too fancy, but it still looks nice for pictures with friends. I can also dance without worrying about my clothes. I feel confident in a skirt and blouse, and I am sure I will have a great time at the party. I think it suits the occasion perfectly, and I will not feel awkward all night. I am excited to see everyone and enjoy the music with them.

Úloha 4

A: David, I remember you used to go to the gym almost every day after school. Do you still do that?

B: No, I stopped going to the gym last month. I felt a bit tired of lifting weights and running on the treadmill.

A: Really? So what do you do now in your free time?

B: I decided to learn the guitar. I found my old guitar in the attic, and I started watching online videos to learn the basics.

A: Wow, that sounds fun. Are you taking any lessons with a teacher?

B: Not yet. I am just practicing chords at home by myself. Sometimes I follow tutorials on the internet.

A: Do you enjoy it? Is it difficult to play songs?

B: I like it a lot, but it can be challenging. My fingers hurt in the beginning, and I need to practice every day.

A: It is great that you are learning something new. Maybe one day you can play a song for me.

B: That would be cool. I hope to learn a few songs soon.

A: Good luck, David! Keep practicing and have fun.

B: Thanks! I am really enjoying it.

A (Leo): Hi, Emma! I haven’t seen you in a while. What do you do in your free time these days?

B (Emma): Hi, Leo! I like to stay active. I usually play tennis on Saturdays.

A: That’s great. Do you play at a club or just for fun?

B: I don’t belong to a club. I play in the park with my brother. He’s quite good, so he teaches me new techniques.

A: Nice! I don’t play tennis much, but I enjoy watching it. I prefer football. I’m on my school’s football team, and we train three times a week. It’s hard work, but also fun.

B: Three times a week? That’s a lot. I only play tennis once a week, though sometimes I practice hitting a ball against a wall at home. It helps a bit, but it’s not the same as a real game.

A: True. Our coach says regular training is important. We have a match this Sunday against another school. They have a strong team, so we’re working on teamwork and passing skills.

B: That sounds exciting. Are you nervous?

A: A little. I really want us to win. But we’ve played together for over a year, so we know each other’s style.

B: I’m sure you’ll do great. Maybe I can come and watch. Sunday afternoon is free for me.

A: That would be awesome. The match starts at 2 p.m. on our school field. Afterward, I can introduce you to my teammates.

B: Perfect. I also want to train more myself. Tennis is difficult, but I love it. My serve needs improvement, and I want to learn better footwork.

A: You should keep practicing. Maybe we can play together sometime. I’m not a tennis expert, but it could be fun to try.

B: Yes, let’s do that! Next week, if the weather is nice, we can meet at the park. I’ll bring my tennis racket, and we can play a few rounds.

A: Great idea. I’m free on Saturday afternoon. Let’s meet then. It’ll help me stay in shape for football, too.

B: Excellent. I’ll send you a message on Friday to confirm. I’ll bring water and snacks.

A: Good plan. Playing sports makes me really hungry. Also, thanks for coming to watch our match on Sunday. It means a lot.

B: I’m looking forward to it. I love watching live sports, and maybe I can learn something from your team’s tactics.

A: That’s cool. You might even decide to try football one day. It’s a great way to make friends.

B: Maybe I will. For now, I’m focusing on tennis. My brother says I need to watch the ball carefully and move my feet faster.

A: Good tips. You’ll improve with practice. Anyway, I have homework to do before tomorrow’s training.

B: Same here. I need to help my mom with grocery shopping, too. Good luck with practice!

A: Thanks, Emma. See you on Sunday!

B: See you there, Leo!

Úloha 21

Today, I decided to change something in my bedroom. My room feels a bit small, so I need more space. At first, I thought about moving my bed, but that wouldn’t help much. Then I looked at the sofa. It takes up a lot of space near the window. I thought about moving it next to the door, but that would block the way. Another idea was to put it in the middle of the room, but that wouldn’t work either. Finally, I decided that the best place is next to the TV. This way, I have more space to walk around, and I can still watch TV comfortably. Now, I just need some help to move it. I’ll ask Mom to help me lift it. I think the room will look much better after this!

Úloha 22

Next Saturday is our school sports day, and I need to choose a sport. I really like tennis, and I practice every week, so I thought about joining the tennis competition. But my best friend asked me to play basketball with him. I like basketball too, but I’m not as good at it as I am at tennis. My coach told me that both sports are good choices. He said I should think about which one I enjoy more. I like playing in a team, but I feel more confident with a tennis racket. I decided to talk to my friend and tell him I want to play tennis. I hope he understands. I’ll let my coach know tomorrow. I’m excited to take part in sports day!

Úloha 23

Dad: Lisa, do you have any plans for Saturday?

Lisa: Not yet, Dad. I was thinking about doing something useful.

Dad: That’s a great idea. Are there any places that need volunteers?

Lisa: My friend helps in the community garden, but I don’t really like working outside all day.

Dad: Maybe you could help at the animal shelter. You love animals.

Lisa: That’s true! I know they need people to walk the dogs and feed the kittens.

Dad: That sounds perfect for you.

Lisa: Yes, but I’m a bit worried about cleaning the cages.

Dad: It might not be fun, but it’s important work.

Lisa: You’re right. I’ll call them now and see if they need help.

Dad: Good plan. Let me know what they say.

Lisa: Thanks, Dad. I hope I can start this weekend!

Úloha 24

Sam: Kevin, do you have any plans for the summer holiday?

Kevin: Yes! I want to visit Spain. My aunt lives in Barcelona, so I might stay with her.

Sam: That’s cool! Barcelona has great beaches. Are you planning to visit any museums?

Kevin: Yes, my aunt said I should see some famous buildings, too. She told me that August is very busy with tourists.

Sam: That’s true, but there are also fun festivals. Do you speak Spanish?

Kevin: I know a few words, but I want to practice more before I go.

Sam:  That’s a good idea. Are you traveling anywhere else?

Kevin: I might take a train to Madrid for a few days.

Sam:  That sounds great! Have fun, Kevin.

Kevin: Thanks, Sam! I’m really excited!

Úloha 1

A: Hello, Mark. Are you free after school today?

B: I am sorry, Sarah, but I have a dentist appointment. I must see the dentist because my tooth hurts.

A: That is too bad. My friends and I are going to the park to play volleyball. You can come if you have time.

B: I wish I could, but my appointment starts at three o’clock, and it may take a while.

A: I see. Do you plan to do anything after your visit to the dentist?

B: Yes, I want to go to the shopping mall. My sister’s birthday is next week, and I want to buy her a gift. Maybe a new book or a small piece of jewelry.

A: That sounds nice. I can meet you there if you like. We can look at different stores together and have some ice cream.

B: Good idea! Let’s meet at four-thirty near the main entrance.

A: Perfect. I hope everything goes well at the dentist. Let me know if you need anything.

B: Thank you, Sarah. I will see you at the mall. Have a nice day!

Úloha 2

A: Hello, Susan! I saw your new painting yesterday, and it was really beautiful.

B: Thank you! I love painting. I usually paint after school, because it helps me relax.

A: How did you learn to paint so well?

B: When I was seven years old, my mother gave me some brushes and colors. I started painting simple flowers and animals. Over time, I practiced more, and I tried different techniques.

A: Do you paint only landscapes, or do you paint people too?

B: I paint both. Sometimes I paint my cat or my friends. I also enjoy painting the sky and the ocean.

A: That sounds fun. How often do you paint now?

B: I paint almost every day. Even if I have homework, I try to find at least thirty minutes to paint a bit.

A: Wow, that is great. Maybe one day I can paint with you. I want to learn some basic skills.

B: Of course! Come to my house this weekend, and we can paint together. I can share my brushes and paints. It will be fun, and we can learn from each other.

A: Hi Tom, I see you eating toast almost every morning. Do you like toast more than cereal?

B: Yes, I do. I enjoy toast with butter or jam, but I especially like eggs and toast together. It makes me feel full and ready for school.

A: Do you ever eat cereal?

B: Sometimes, if I am in a hurry. Cereal is fast, but it does not give me enough energy for the day. I also get hungry soon after.

A: Right, I understand. Some people like pancakes in the morning. How about you?

B: Pancakes are delicious, but my mother does not make them on weekdays. She says it is too much work before I go to school. We usually have pancakes on Saturday or Sunday.

A: That makes sense. What do you drink for breakfast?

B: I prefer orange juice. It is fresh, and it has vitamins. I do not drink coffee, because it is too strong for me.

A: That sounds healthy, Tom. Eggs, toast, and orange juice seem like a good combination.

B: I agree. It helps me start the day right and focus on my classes.

Anna turned fourteen last weekend. She had a small party at home with her family and friends. They played music, danced, and ate chocolate cake. Her parents wanted to buy her a dress, because they thought she might like something fancy. However, Anna prefers comfortable clothes, like sneakers, leggings, and T-shirts. So, her parents gave her a new sports jacket in her favorite color, blue.

Anna’s best friend, Lucy, gave her a mystery book. Anna loves detective stories, so she was excited to read it. But the present that made her the happiest was a smartwatch from her grandparents. Anna had been dreaming about a smartwatch for a few months. She wanted to count her steps, check the time quickly, and see messages from her friends on her wrist.

When Anna opened the box and saw the watch, she smiled and thanked her grandparents many times. She said it was the perfect gift for her. Now she wears it every day. She checks how many steps she takes, and she can also set an alarm for school. Anna feels very happy with her new gadget.

A: Hi, Lisa! How was school today?

B: Hi, Tom! It was interesting. We had a history lesson about ancient Egypt. We learned about pyramids and pharaohs. I found it exciting because I love learning about old civilizations. Our teacher, Mrs. Green, showed us pictures of famous pyramids. She also talked about the Nile River. It was not difficult, but there was a lot of information.

A: That sounds nice. I like history too, but I am not good at remembering dates and names. Today, I had a math test in Mr. Johnson’s class. It was not too hard, but I am not sure if I answered every question correctly. Some questions were about fractions, and I sometimes make mistakes with them.

B: I am sure you did well. You studied a lot last week. I remember seeing you in the library after school. I also had a test last week, but it was science. It was on plants and animals, and it was difficult. I had to write short answers about photosynthesis. I also had to draw a plant cell. I hope I passed.

A: That does sound hard. I do not like drawing cells. I am not very good at art. Anyway, are you free this afternoon? We do not have any more tests this week, so I want to enjoy some free time. I thought we could hang out at the park. It is sunny outside, and the weather is perfect for playing games.

B: That is a good idea. But first, I have to help my mom with grocery shopping. She wants to cook dinner for my grandparents tonight. I need to buy vegetables, fruit, and some bread. My mom also asked me to pick up milk. Maybe I can finish in one hour. Then I can meet you.

A: Sure! I also need to go home for a bit. My little brother is sick, and I promised my mom I would check on him. He has a bad cold, and he feels tired. Yesterday, he had a fever, so the doctor told him to stay home. He is sleeping now, but my mom wants me to see if he needs more tissues or water.

B: Oh no, I hope he feels better soon. Colds can be annoying. My sister had a cold last month. She coughed a lot and stayed in bed for three days. It was not serious, but she missed some school.

A: Yes, my brother misses school too. He does not like staying at home all day, but he has to rest. So, after I look after my brother, and you finish shopping with your mom, let’s meet at the park. Is five o’clock okay?

B: Five p.m. is perfect. I will be done by then. We can play basketball. I love basketball, but I do not have my own ball. Do you still have yours?

A: Yes, I bring it everywhere. I got it for my birthday last year, and it is really cool. It has blue and white stripes. We can use it at the basketball court in the park. But before we play, do you want a snack?

B: Yes, please. I will be hungry after helping with shopping. Maybe we can go to the café near the park. They have good sandwiches and fresh juice. The place is small, but the food is tasty.

A: That sounds great. We can share a sandwich if we like. Then we can play basketball for an hour. After that, I need to go home again. My mom wants me to help with dinner. She said we are making spaghetti tonight.

B: Yum, spaghetti is one of my favorite meals. I wish I could have dinner with you, but my grandparents are coming. Maybe next time we can all eat together.

A: Yes, next time for sure. Anyway, see you at five in the park. Bring your water bottle, so we do not get too thirsty while playing.

B: Good idea. I will bring it. Enjoy your time at home, and take good care of your brother. See you soon, Tom!

A: See you soon, Lisa!

Good afternoon, everyone! Welcome to our travel agency’s information session about our exciting three-day trip to Manchester. My name is Lucy, and I will be your guide for this journey.

The trip starts on Monday morning when we meet at Oxford Station. Our train leaves at half past eight, so please arrive at least 15 minutes early to collect your tickets. The return ticket for this trip costs twenty-five pounds, which is a great deal because we booked them in advance at a discount.

When we arrive in Manchester, we will stay at a cozy guesthouse near the city center. The guesthouse offers comfortable rooms, breakfast, and free Wi-Fi. It is located close to shops, restaurants, and public transport, making it a great place for exploring the city.

Now, let’s go over our itinerary. On Tuesday evening, we will go to the famous Old Trafford Stadium to watch a football match. Manchester is home to one of the most popular football clubs in the world, and this will be an unforgettable experience for sports fans.

On Wednesday morning, we will visit a famous museum that focuses on industry and technology. You will see exhibitions about the history of Manchester, including its role in the Industrial Revolution. After lunch, there will be free time for shopping, where you can buy souvenirs.

We will stay in Manchester for three days and then continue our journey on Thursday morning. Our next destination will be York, a charming historical city. In York, we will visit York Minster, one of the largest cathedrals in Northern Europe. You will also have time to walk along the city walls and explore the beautiful old streets.

Before we finish, I want to remind everyone to bring their phone charger. Last year, several travelers forgot theirs, and they couldn’t take pictures or use their maps. Also, pack a jacket and an umbrella, as Manchester can be rainy.

If you enjoyed this trip, we recommend joining our London tour next year! You will get the chance to see Big Ben, the London Eye, and Buckingham Palace. London is larger and busier than Manchester, but it’s full of history and culture.

Thank you for joining this session! If you have any questions, feel free to ask. We look forward to traveling with you soon!

Hello, students. I’m Mr. Evans, and I want to tell you about our school trip next Friday. We will visit Blackwood Castle, which is about one hour away from school by bus. The castle is very old and has many interesting rooms. Our guide will show us the big dining hall, the kitchen, and the king’s bedroom. There is also a beautiful garden outside where you can walk around. We will leave school at eight in the morning and return by four in the afternoon. Please bring comfortable shoes because we will do a lot of walking. You should also bring a packed lunch, as there is no café inside the castle. If you have any questions, you can ask me after class. I hope you are all excited about the trip!

Jake: I forgot something important at home!
