 English with Ms.Nhan (Serena)

Giving positive nonverbal messages can improve your relationship with your
child and develop emotional connections in your family. Most children love
being hugged and kissed, for example. This warm and caring body language
sends the nonverbal message that you want to be close to your child.
Some children with special needs - for example, children with autism and
sensory sensitivities -might find body contact difficult.
On the other hand, negative nonverbal communication - for example, a
grumpy tone of voice or a frown - when you’re doing something fun together
might send the message that you don’t really want to be there.
So matching your verbal and nonverbal communication makes your words
more effective. For example, a teacher might explain a maths problem using
her hands to show size and shape.
But when verbal and nonverbal messages don’t match, your child might
believe the nonverbal - after all, what you see is what you get. Your child
learns a lot about nonverbal communication by watching you. For example, if
you approach new people in a relaxed way, your child is more likely to do the
same.
1. A hug or a kiss sends the message that ______________.
A. I want to be loved B. I want to be near C. I want to be
emotional
2. Children with autism and sensory sensitivities find it hard to
______________.
A. love B. communicate C. contact physically
3. A frown sends the message that ______________.
A. I don’t want you B. I want to be near C. I don’t really
want to join
4. ______________ makes words more effective.
A. Using positive actions and body language
B. Combining verbal and nonverbal communication
C. Explaining a problem using body language

“friends” websites?
 English with Ms.Nhan (Serena)

Title 4 - Where do Millie’s friends live?

Title 5 - How can I find “friends” websites?
Title 6 - Why are “friends” websites popular?
1. _______________ Millie is 14 years old and lives in Miami. She has 204
friends - and she makes two or three more friends every week. About 20 of
her friends also live in Miami. Some go to the same school, and others go to
the same music clubs and sports centers. She often sees them. The others
live in other cities and other countries: England, Canada, Japan ... She never
meets these friends, but she talks to them on the Internet. They are her “My
Space Friends”.
2. _______________ Because of websites like MySpace, Yahoo 360 and Bebo.
people can make friends online. These websites are very popular all over the
world, especially with young people. Users have their own homepage. They
give information about themselves. They write letters for their webpage,
show photos and give opinions. They write about their favourite films, music
and TV programmes.
3. _______________ For many young people, a good homepage is an important
part of their image. It says: “This is me! I have something to say. These
things - and these people - are important in my life.” And these websites are
also an easy way to talk to a lot of different people. That is why teenagers
like these “friends” websites.
4. _______________ But some people are worried that these websites aren’t
safe. For example, it is impossible to know that the information on a
homepage is true. Perhaps the 14-year-old girl you talk to online is really a
40-year-old man.
5. _______________ So here is some advice. Keep your webpage private, (only
friends can see a private homepage). Do not put photos of yourself on your
homepage. Do not meet people that you only know because of the website.
And finally, remember that online friends are fun, but they are not the same
as real friends.
Exercise 11. Read the text and answer the questions.

SIGN LANGUAGE
Because deaf people cannot hear, they have special ways of communicating.
For example, they can learn to understand what someone is saying by
looking at the mouth of the speaker. This is called lip-reading. Also, speaking
is very difficult for the deaf, because they cannot hear their own voices.
However, it is possible with special training. According to many deaf people
all around the world, the most practical and popular way of communicating is
with sign language.
In many ways, sign language is similar to spoken language. The words of
sign language are made with signs, which are formed with movements of the
hands, face, and body. As with words, each sign has a different meaning and
can be combined to form sentences. Sign languages also have their own
grammar. The alphabet of sign language is special hand signs that stand for
letters; they make spelling possible. The signs combine to form a rich
language that can express the same thoughts, feelings, and ideas as any
spoken language. And just as people from different countries speak different
languages, most countries have their own variety of sign languages.

Exercise 12. Read the text and answer these following questions.
 English with Ms.Nhan (Serena)

Telephones help people speak to one another when they are apart. For
more than a hundred years, nearly every telephone was a landline. A
landline telephone is one that needs to be connected by a wire to a network
of other telephones. Because of the wires, people could not take those
telephones with them when they left their homes or offices.
What if you had to make a call while you were away from home? You had to
find a pay phone. Pay phones are landlines found in public places. Many pay
phones are on the street. You can make a call from inside a glass or metal
space called a phone booth. Once you are inside the booth, you put coins
into a slot in the phone to make a call.
Telephones have seen a lot of progress. Today, many people carry cell
phones. Cell phones do not need to be connected with wires. They can be
used almost anywhere and can fit in an adult’s hand.
Many cell phones sold today are smartphones. A smartphone is a cell phone
that has lots of computer-style features. For example, people use
smartphones to check e-mail and go on the Internet. And all that can be
done using something small enough to carry in a pocket!
1. Does a landline need to be connected by a wire to a network of other
telephones?
