A In

and August, the restaurant is very popular with tourists from all over the
world. Because he is the only person in his family who can speak English, it is
his job to look after the tourists when they eat at the restaurant. He explains
the menu, he takes their order and he even carries the heavy trays to their
tables.
B Thanasis
is 10 years old and lives in a small village on a beautiful Greek island. Like
all children his age, Thanasis has just completed year 4 in primary school. But
unlike other children his age, Thanasis also has a full-time job for two months
of the year.
C
Together with his classmates, two evenings a week, he attends classes at a
language school in the same village. There is no bus service when his classes
end, so his mother picks him up and brings him home.
D Thanasis
doesn’t mind, he enjoys learning English. He is very pleased that he can help
his family in the summer and the tourists are very happy that they can order
their meal in English. What does Thanasis want to do when he grows up? He wants
to own a restaurant, of course!

did he learn his English? There is no school in Thanasis’ village, and during
