4to I "C" - Diego Blaer, Ari Gullerian, Alejandro Otero - Std. bk - pg. 93


Lulinha, who was Kardec best friend, was playing for the Santos Football Club (S.F.C.) in Brazil. He had met his best friend when they were playing in S.F.C. and they saw each other almost all the day. But one day Kardec received an offer from his favorite club, Vasco Da Gama. He accepted the offer and left his best friend and his club.

Although Kardec went away from his ex-club he never abandoned his best friend. Lulinha and Kardec always continued to have an excellent friendship; when they were not playing football they were together doing something.

The year after Kardec left S.F.C. Lulinha and Kardec played together for Brazil on the Sub20 World Cup. That championship made the closeness between the two friends stronger. The entire world was talking about those two young players that were playing excellently together for Brazil; of course Brazil won that Cup.

When Lulinha went back to Brazil he received a horrible and at the same time excellent piece of news… The F.C. Manchester United wanted that Lulinha joined them. He couldn’t reject that offer so the day before he signed for the British club he went to Kardec’s house and said to him: - ‘I hope to see you playing for an important club my friend, if not, you will always be in my hearth as the best friend I have ever had’- And that was the last time he ever saw him.

St. Book p.93 Ex 8. Writing (short version) 4 Info "B"

I realised that the story I wrote was longer than 200-250 words, so I made a shorter version:

Annie used to watch “Friends” everyday at 8:00 PM in her youth. That used to cause problems in her life. For example, one day her family had dinner early: she didn’t go to eat that day, it was Ross’ second wedding!
The day her little brother, Lucas, was born, was a complete disaster: she was nine, Monica and Chandler where getting married, and she would not miss it for anything in the world. She cried, and yelled, but it was useless, they couldn’t leave her alone. At the end, she saw it in the hospital T.V. I remember seeing her tears. I’m sure they were of happiness, but I’m not sure if they were because of Lucas, or because of Chandler, that was getting married.
With the invention and use of the Internet, and of the series’ illegal downloads, Annie got very happy: she could see the chapters the same day they were released in USA! Everyday she dashed into her computer to check if there was a new chapter and grinned if that happened!
Anyway, she finally grew up and stopped watching the sitcom.
One day, she was walking down the street with her friends, when she saw a poster. It said: “Friends: The Movie. soon in Cinemax”
The sitcom had ended years ago, on her 12-year-old birthday. She was sixteen when she saw the poster, but she promised herself she would watch it, and she did.

When she walked out of the cinema, she was really struck: it had been SO boring! She couldn’t believe this was her favourite sitcom when she was little.
One of her friends that had been to the movies with her thought : “How much the people can change when they grow up.”
A sequel was announced, with the same characters, but Annie never saw it. That day was the last time she ever saw them.

St. Book p.93 Ex 8. Writing 4 Info "B"








Annie used to watch “Friends” everyday at 8:00 PM in her youth. That used to cause problems in her life. For example, one day her family had dinner early: she didn’t go to eat that day, it was Ross’ second wedding!
The day her little brother, Lucas, was born, was a complete disaster: she was nine, Monica and Chandler where getting married, and she would not miss it for anything in the world. She cried, yelled, and even broke some valuable plates (luckily, it was a gift from an aunt, and it had a really tacky design, so her parents didn’t get very angry). At the end, she saw it in the hospital T.V. . She sighed because she couldn’t see the last seconds: they had to go home. I remember seeing her tears. I’m sure they were of happiness, but I’m not sure if they were because of Lucas, or because of Chandler, that was getting married.
With the invention and use of the Internet, and of the series’ illegal downloads, Annie got very happy: she lived in Argentina, but she could see the chapters the same day they were shown in the USA! Everyday she dashed into her computer to check if there was a new chapter. If this happened, you could see a grin in her face for at least ten minutes!
In my opinion, she might have studied Computing because of this: when she discovered that she could see “Friends” online, it was really difficult to see her away her computer. Sadly, although she took care of her computer, I can’t say the same thing about her bedroom: it was always shabby, filthy: she wasn’t very organised!
Anyway, she finally grew up and stopped watching “Friends”. (And started watching “Casíangeles”!)
One day, she was walking down the street with her friends, giggling because of something of no importance at all, when she saw a poster. It said: “Friends: The Movie. Soon in Cinemax”
The sitcom had ended years ago, on her 12-year-old birthday. She was sixteen when she saw the poster, but she promised herself she would watch it, and she did.

That was the las time I ever saw them


Five years ago, when I (Martin) was in London, I was walking along the street, I suddenly heared a noise, I knew there was something wrong...But I couldn't see a thing.
When I went to see what was happening an old friend appeared from nowhere. He told me that we should run far from where we were¨, because there had been a murder there. He offered me to go to his house.
When we got there we started to talk about what had happened. We talked about an hour. We drank a lot, and that's why my friend, Lucas told me that he was the murderer.I told him that we should go to the police, but when I said that, he punched me in my face and I got uncouncient.
When I woke up I was at the hospital, with a huge bandage all over my head. I was really angry, almost desperetly I run to the police and told them what had happened and what had Lucas done.
As fast as they could they went to catch him...but it was too late, by the time we got to Luca's house he had already escaped and he left a note: "If you don't give me $10000 before tomorrow I'll kill Martin." When I saw my name I freaked out. The policemen told me that I shoudn't worry, because they'd take care of me.
Although those speechs, before I went to sleep, I veryfied that all the windows and doors of my house were well closed.
It was 5 o'clock in the morning when I heard some shooting on my door, it was Lucas and he was with a girl. They entered to my house and appeared on my bedroom with a gun, but I was prepared for this situation, so I took my own gun from my pillow and started shooting without looking my target. They run and escaped ...that was the last time he ever saw them
