Part 4: A recent birthday party 
Recently it was my fortieth birthday, and I celebrated it with all my friends, which was brilliant. 
I decided to have a 1970s party. So, lots of my friends dressed up in 1970s clothes. 
I wore a dress that was from 1970. I bought it in a retro market in Rome, and it was long and orange and it had orange 
chiffon sleeves.
We ate 1970s food. I played 1970s music, lots of disco and soul, and that kind of thing. 
I had a cake. My sister arranged for somebody to make a cake and it was a 1970s cake with big platform shoes on top 
and ‘Happy Birthday Carolyn’.
I think the party went really well. Lots of people dressed up. Lots of people danced. I think everyone had a good time.
The party wasn’t on the actual day of my birthday, it was a couple of days before. 
On my birthday I was in Italy, and I decided to bounce across the Ponte Vecchio in Florence on my 1970s Space 
Hopper to celebrate!

Unit 8: A world of food
Part 1: What’s your favourite food? 
When people think about British food they often think about traditional food like fish and chips, or more unusual 
takeaway food like Cornish pasties. 
Cornish pasties come from Cornwall in the south-west of England. The pasty is usually made with some potatoes, 
vegetables, and meat, baked inside pastry. 
But international food is popular in Britain, too. 
There are a lot of restaurants, markets, and festivals where you can try delicious food from all around the world. 
How about trying some Jamaican Jerk Chicken with some rice and peas? 
So, what food do you love or hate? 
I like French food, I also like Thai food. 
Well, I like Chinese food, and I think you like Chinese food, too… 
Yeah, I like Chinese food.
My favourite food is Indian.
I really don’t like peas.
