12 You need lettuce, tomatoes, black olives, an onion, some feta cheese and a big dish. First wash and cut up the lettuce and tomatoes. Next put all the ingredients into the dish and add some olive oil. Don't add salt because feta cheese is very salty. Then stir it all around and serve with fresh bread. Delicious!

13: (sample answer) Mrs Manson was my history teacher at school. I don't know her birth date but she was about 45 when she taught me. She was married but I don't know anything about her family. Teachers didn't talk about their families when I was at school. I was sixteen when I met Mrs Manson. She was important to me because she taught me to love history. So then I studied it at university and became a history teacher, too.

It's very sunny, too. Bring light clothes and lots of T-shirts or you'll be too hot. Bring lots of suncream as well!

13: (sample answer) The best thing is to talk to your friends and family about it. They'll help you. And why don't you look for information on the internet and get some advice? You should also think about what kind of job you'd really like to do. You might need to do a course to learn a new and more interesting job. And don't worry! You shouldn't have a problem finding an interesting job. Good luck!

17: (sample answer)

I was born in São Paulo, Brazil in 1990. My mum's from Sao Paulo but my dad's from Rio de Janeiro. I've got one brother called Guillerme - he's 17.

I went to school in São Paulo but when I was 18 we moved to Brasilia. Now I go to university here. I want to be a lawyer.

I don't have much free time but I enjoy playing football at the weekend.

I'm very happy with my life but want to live in Rio when I finish university.

We didn't see the sun again. It started raining on Saturday night and didn't stop - it rained and rained. We played cards but we were very bored. Finally, we decided to leave Wales and go home early. I'll never go there again.
