People have different types of intelligence. One of them may be intrapersonal intelligence. Intrapersonal people have strong personalities. They may not like group activities. They are quite shy and they often keep diaries. They are self-confident and independent. They know what they want from life and they know a lot about their own emotions. They usually have lots of hobbies.
Almost every teenager and, in fact, most people below the age of sixty in most countries in the world own a pair of jeans. Jeans now are an integral part of any modem wardrobe. People wear them with a smart shirt to a party or with a T-shirt to do some work. Jeans are simply universal.
Today there are over 30,000 types of perfumes on the market but not everyone knows that the idea of using perfume comes from Ancient Egypt. Egyptians used nice smelling substances because they believed that the gods would be more generous to them. They also used to put perfume next to dead people to make their afterlife easier
You know how it is. Their moods change like the weather, especially on really bad autumn days. You never know how they are going to be from one day to the next. One day they're fine and the next they shout angrily at you and you never know why. Moody people, especially when they're work colleagues or school mates, make life much harder than it needs to be.

Dear Ms Daniels, I really appreciate the job offer of a senior manager in your company. I will do my best to fulfil your expectations. As I have mentioned before, my present contract with another company finishes at the end of this month so I would be able to start at the beginning of the next one. Yours sincerely, Eric Wade
If you're looking for a job, go for dog walking or holiday pet care. Most people who have pets want to give them the best care possible. Your business would help pet owners to do that by walking their pets daily or by providing pet care at your own place when owners are on vacation. Doesn't sound too hard, does it?
My mum has been doing her best to bring me up on her own since my parents got divorced. She's just started a new job where she'll have to work at the weekends as well. It's better-paid. I understand her decision but at the same time this means I won't see her often enough. It makes me feel quite upset actually.
Hi Wendy, Bad news. I'm not sure I can come to the party tomorrow. I've got a test on Monday and I have to study. My mum says I can't go until I learn all the history by heart! I may be lucky! I hope to be there anyway. Peter
Tim - have you got any ideas for Tom's birthday presents? I'm out shopping and could get him something. Have you got him anything? See you on Sat. Kate

I believe that these days friends have become your family. I hardly ever see my parents and my siblings. We all work or study. We don't get much chance to talk to each other. Instead, we meet up with our friends online or offline. We tell them our secrets and offload our problems onto them. I seem to know more about the lives of my mates than my relatives. A bit sad, isn't it?
The British spend longer commuting to work than anyone else in Europe. The average person spends one and a half hours trying to get to work. Some people spend more than £4000 on season train or bus tickets. However, most Britons are prepared to make long and expensive journeys to work so that they can have the lifestyle they enjoy in their bigger houses in the countryside.

Air travel is often the most energy consuming aspect of your travel. So, plan your trip so that you minimize air travel and choose, whenever possible, to stay longer in one place instead of making many short trips. Pack only what you need and don't bring things that will become wasteful.
Dear Linda, Having lots of fun here. The beaches are just spectacular! The only trouble is the cloudy sky so we're waiting for the sun to come out. Food absolutely delicious! Wish you were here, Love, Betty

Dear Emily, I must tell you about the Science Festival in my school. It was absolutely wonderful and I learned so much. For three days we did lots of experiments in our chemistry lab. We had a lesson with a real astronomer and a real inventor. Both told us so many interesting things. There were films and multimedia presentations about different discoveries. Wow! It's a shame you couldn't see it all. Maybe next time! Hope you're fine. Let me know if you want me to help you with the homework. Love, Tessa
Educators at Kansas State University have been testing the use of e-readers, such as Amazon's Kindle, for teaching reading to young students. The results suggest that this technology can make reading more attractive for today's youngsters. The young will be able to download books of their choice for free and hopefully read them more willingly than they do now. It's possible that e-readers will replace paper versions sooner than we think.
