~ online shopping
o I saw the perfect bracelet for my girlfriend
in a magazine. I spent weeks looking for it
in stores. I was really happy when I finally
found it. Then when I got home, I found
the same bracelet online. And, it was
cheaper! I spent toa much time looking
for it, and I paid too much, too.
Takeshi, Tokyo, japan
o The first time I bought something online,
I was a little nervous. I didn't know how
they were going to send it. But it arrived
OK. Now the only problem is that I do
too much shopping online. And because
I don't have to go out much anymore, I'm
also getting fat!
Mari, Lima, Peru
o I bought a lot of stuff online last year,
and everything arrived on time. The
problem is that someone stole my credit
card information and went shopping. My
advice is: Be very careful when vou shop
online!

€) I do ali of my shopping online - it's so
cool! I never have to go to the mall or
wait in line to pay. And I don't have
to go around to different stores to
compare prices. The only problem is
that I usually spend too much money!
I'm broke! ®
Nancy, Seattle, USA
I wanted to buy a new CD, but I was
too lazy to go to the music megastore
downtown. So I decided to order it
online. When it finally arrived-three
months later-it was used and the
cover was broken! Next time, I guess
I won't be so lazy! ®
Troy, jersey City, USA
E) I like going to stores, but how do Vou
know if a store has what Vou want?
The great thing about shopping online
is saving time! There are so many
choices, and it doesn't take much time
to find what Vou want!

Look at the title and headings in the article. Which of the suggestions for a first
- date can you do where you live?
(D 2
Maggie Carr suggests some great
land cheap!) ideas for a first date.
Planning a first date? Congratulations! Here are some
tips on things to do that are both fun and inexpensive.
Ideas
for a first date
1 See a movie I know, a movie is an obvious choice. But there are plenty of
ways vou can impress your date. First of all, let your date choose the movie.
And try to find a movie theater that has style, such as comfortable seats or an
interesting décor. And make sure Vou meet early- that way you'll have
time to get tickets to the movie Vou want!
2 Go ice skating-or roller b/ading If vou enjoy more active dates,
why not suggest ice skating or roller blading? If your date likes the
idea - go for it! It means that Vou both enjoy the same kinds of things.
And don't worry ifyou can't skate-sometimes it's fun to fall down!
3 F/y a kite Who says no one flies kites anymore? This is still a great
way to have fun at the park! If you're good at it, that's even better!
And if vou aren't-don't worry! Your lack of skill will make your date
laugh!
4 Go to the zoo Everyone likes animais, right? 50
a trip to the zoo makes an ideal first date. Vou can
impress your companion with your knowledge of
animallife-but first, make sure that Vou know
what you're talking about!
5 Have a picnic by a /ake or river Picnics are
fun-and ifyou're a good cook, why not make
the food yourself? If not, buying the right picnic
items is also a useful skill. But remember, choosing
the perfect picnic spot is criticaI. Pick a place where
there's a nice view and an opportunity for romance!

Wedding with julia
Roberts. She beca me
a superstar in 1998
with the hit comedy
There's Something
About Mary.
5 On her birthday in 2003, Diaz broke her nose
in a surfing accident in Hawaii, but she is still
on the list of the "50 most beautiful people in
the world." It's
hard to believe
she used to

Cameron Diaz
seems to have
it all-and is

a superstar.
Superstar
IVou probably recognize Cameron Diaz, a tall,
attractive blue-eyed blonde, but how much do
Vou know about her? Cameron Michelle Diaz
was born on August 30, 1972 in San Diego,
California. Her father was Cuban-American,
and her mother's family came from England
and Germany. As a kid, she says she used to
be "adventurous, independent, and tough."
She and her sister, Chimene, used to fight ali
the time.
2 Diaz attended Long Beach Polytechnic High
School, where she had a reputation for
always being late. She used to be a member
of the Polyettes, the high school's dance team
that performed at football games. She loved
going to parties in Hollywood. One night, a
photographer discovered her at one of these
events. Within a week, he helped her get a
contract with the Elite Modeling Agency.
3 Diaz left home at 16 and for the next few
years, her modeling career took her around
the world. During this time, she worked
in Japan, Australia, Mexico, Morocco, and
France. She did commercials for products
such as Coca-Cola, Nivea, and L.A. Gear.
4 Diaz returned to California at the age of 21.
With no acting experience, she auditioned for
a part in the Jim Carrey movie The Mask. To
her surprise, she won the lead female role!
Then she signed up for acting lessons.

Architects are thinking about new ways to provide
accommodation for the world's growing population.
(02
Tra<k45 High Ii'e!
Sky City
Sky City is a dramatic idea for a place to
live-a mile-high building in Tokyo Bay. If they
build it, it will be the tallest building on earth,
twice as high as any other building.
This vertical city will have 560 floors, house
more than 35,000 people, and provide offices,
shops, schools, and even parks for another
100,000.
15 it possible to build it? Architects are
working on the plans, but if they succeed,
we may see a lot more really high residential
buildings. Who knows, in 50 years, we may all
live a mile off the ground!
Pyramid City
Pyramid City is another very ambitious project.
If they can build it, it will be more than half a
mile high, twelve times higher than the Egyptian
pyramids. Inside the main pyramid, there will be
55 smaller pyramids.
If it is built, the pyramid will have 80 floors.
Three quarters of a million people willlive there.
A high-speed transport system will connect the
series of skyscrapers inside the pyramid. Spider
robots will build parts of it. Waves and wind will
power it.
One major problem is that )apan is on the "Ring
of Fire" - a zone of frequent earthquakes and
volcanic eruptions around the Pacific Oceano The
area contains 75 per cent of the world's volcanoes.
Pyramid City will have to resist earthquakes,
tsunamis, and underwater volcanic activity.
The designers of Pyramid City are certain that
they can build it, but it may not be possible for
another 100 years.
