Second Term Exam

Preparation for the test is very important and starts at home. Preparation is the work that pupils do before the test. But just how you go about it? The majority of the pupils revise for exams alone. This method may possibly be suitable for some children, but on the other hand it may well be the cause of the failure of many others.
Children who revise in groups may have better chances of success than those who revise alone. When they work in groups, they help one an other by asking and answering questions that they might have in exams. Group preparation may also reduce stress if the children practise under test conditions.

Dear Salim,
Thank you for asking me about what I’ll do after taking the Brevet exam. Well, if I succeed, I’ll go to the secondary school. I’ll opt for the Foreign Languages stream. If I pass my Baccalaureate, I’ll go to university. I will train to become a translator. If I get my diploma, I’ll travel all around the world to see other people and make friends.
However, I know that life is full of surprises. So if I fail, I’ll go to a vocational school. I’ll train to be a computer technician. If I manage to get my diploma, I’ll open a cyber café and work on my own. Of course if I make a lot of money, I’ll build a house. I’ll get married and start a family.

Once upon a time , a long time ago , there was a knight who , as he grew older lost all his hair . He became as bald as an egg . He didn't want anyone to see his bald head , so he bought a beautiful , black , curly wig .
One day , some lords and ladies from the castle invited him to go hunting with them , so of course , he put on his beautiful wig . " How handsome I look !" he thought to himself as he was dressing in front of his mirror . Then , he set off happily for the forest .
However , a terrible thing happened . He was riding along , singing merrily to himself , when he passed under an oak tree and his wig caught on a branch and fell off in full view of everyone . How they all laughed at him ! At first , the poor knight felt very foolish but then he saw the funny side of the situation , he started laughing , too .
They were all still laughing when they arrived back at the castle . The knight never wore his wig again . From : New Headway English Course

Dear Dr Hakima,
I’m writing to seek yourkind advice. I’m a four-year Middle School student. I took my Brevet last June and had a pass with merit. The problem is that I’m facing a dilemma as to the choice of the stream in which I will register in the lycée. My parents want me to register in the scientific stream whereas my choice goes for the literary stream.
Indeed, if I decide to register in the stream of my choice, I would realise the dream of my life which consists of becoming a translator. I would work very hard to get a literary stream Baccalaureate, which would allow me to register at a department of translation at university.
However if I followed my choice, my parents would be really disappointed. Theywant me to become a doctor. ...
In conclusion, I’m at a crossroads in my educational career. I don’t know whether I must listen to my parents or decide about what to do with my school life on my own. What should I do?

Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876. He first worked for his father. He developed a system for teaching deaf people to speak. This system, called Visible Speech, use symbols which showed the position of the throat, tongue and lips in making sounds. From this early experience, Bell became interested in the telegraph.
On March 10th, 1876, during one experiment with his assistant Thomas Watson in separate rooms, Bell spilled some acid on his clothe by accident and said, “Mr. Watson come here. I want you”. Watson heard the message through the telephone spring and came immediately. These were the first sentences ever transmitted over the telephone.
Today people almost everywhere can speak to each other by telephone. There are even car phones and plane phones which transmit sounds through air waves rather than telephone lines. The telephone has truly became an essential part of everyday life for people all over the world.
