1 I Textarbeit Text 1 A letter from Australia Good Day Tony, Punkte How are you? I came to Melbourne three weeks ago and it is really great here in Australia. I have a good time with my Greek host family and I have fun at school, too. Perhaps you are surprised to hear that I am staying with a Greek family, but Melbourne is the third biggest 'Greek' city in the world! My two host brothers Dimitrios and Stavros even go to Greek school two nights a week to learn the language. We go to high school together. The school is called Brentwood College. Everybody has to wear a school uniform. The boys wear grey trousers, black leather shoes and a white shirt, girls a grey skirt with a white shirt and black shoes as well. The girls are not allowed to wear earrings or piercings and the clothes must be clean and tidy. I really like it this way, because I can get dressed quickly in the morning without having to think about what to wear. School starts at eight o clock in the morning. We have a lunch break at twelve o clock and finish in the afternoon at three. We have lunch at school, but I do not like it too much. It is always fast food like burgers with French fries, pasta or even pizza. We only live one kilometre away from school, but my host father picks us up every day. This is typical of Australia: Nobody goes by bike or walks and I already miss my bike. I m afraid to lose my fitness and to get fat because we eat so much fast food here. Now I have got to go. It is time for dinner again. Hope to hear from you soon. Yours, Christian (289 words) Annotations host (l. 3) skirt (l. 11) tidy (l. 12) to pick up somebody (l. 17) Gastgeber Rock ordentlich jemanden abholen

7 - 7 - Punkte Text 2 Living in Ireland Today, people from 188 countries live in Ireland. Ireland is a wonderful place to be! Why? It s easy to make friends there. And it has got a beautiful countryside. Edmond Montay is 17 and he comes from Ghana in western Africa. He now lives in Limerick, in the west of Ireland. I came to Ireland in 2005 to visit my mum. It was strange, but I just loved it! It s nice and spacious because there aren t many people. I wanted to stay. Edmond s mum works in a refugee centre in Ennis, which is nearby, also in western Ireland. Some of his friends are refugees. It s not easy for them. Edmond thought school in Ireland was really easy. Lessons in Ghana are harder. He was the only black kid in his class, so he was cool. People always said he looked like a famous rapper or something like 50 Cent. He was very popular at school. Edmond is now studying engineering. It s really interesting - making computer programmes and machines for factories. Going to university in Limerick is expensive. He s working in a fast-food restaurant right now, but he hopes to get a better job after university. 197 words Adapted from SPOT ON 12/2008 Annotations countryside (l. 3) it s spacious (l. 8) refugee centre (l. 10) engineering (l. 16) Landschaft es gibt viel Platz Flüchtlingsunterkunft Technik, Maschinenbau
