12 What decision will you make in each situation? What will you say?
Example 1 Don't worry. I'll help you.
1 Your younger sister is worrying about a maths test
tomorrow.
2 You're very hungry and you see a café on the other
side of the street.
3 You're passing a flower stand when you remember
that it's your friend's birthday today.
4 You're reading a TV programme guide. There's a
concert with your favourite singer tonight.
5 The telephone rings.
6 There's a knock at the door.
Most celebrities' homes are in Beverly Hills, an area near^A. If there is one city that is even more beautiful and glamorous than Beverly Hills, it's Malibu, known for its beautiful beach. Here celebrities can look at the ocean from the windows of their multi-million-dollar homes.
You are unlikely to spot a star from the window of your car or a tourist bus.
You may have more luck on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills where the expensive shops are.
Or try Hollywood Boulevard, with its world-famous movie theaters like Mann's Chinese Theater, the Egyptian Theater and the 3,300-seat Kodak Theater, where the Oscars take place. Every year, usually in February, celebrities are sure to come for the most important event in show biz: Oscar Night. You'll be surprised to find out that the "red carpet" area that leads to the Kodak Theatre is actually a huge shopping mall called Hollywood and Highland, which is full of shops and restaurants.
If you missed the Oscars, you're unlikely to see any celebrities on an ordinary day, but don't leave Hollywood Boulevard in a hurry. Look down at your feet and you'll see bronze stars set in the sidewalk. Look closer and you'll be able to read the names of the people who made Hollywood famous: film directors, producers, camera operators, actors and actresses, and musicians. It's the Walk of Fame, the most unusual monument to talent and success in the world. The tradition started in the late 1950s and now there are more than 2,500 stars in the sidewalk.
If you don't look down, Hollywood Boulevard looks like an ordinary street. There are no architectural masterpieces, it's not very clean and it's full of little souvenir shops.
