1p 1 Waarom klom Ricky's vader op een ladder?
A Hij dacht dat er een inbreker op het dak zat.
B Hij had geen sleutel bij zich en de voordeur was op slot.
C Hij wilde zijn dochter en haar vriendje bespioneren.

Peeping Tom

My dad is really sweet but he doesn't trust any of the guys I go out with. Whenever I bring a crush home, he always grills them with a whole bunch of embarrassing questions.
One night, this guy named Devon came over. He was a total sweetie, but my dad kept eyeing him suspiciously. After Devon survived the initial interrogation ("What are your plans with my daughter?" "Do you drink?" "Do you smoke?") we went up to my room to watch TV. Any plans for privacy, though, went right out of the window. Literally.
Since I had locked my door, my dad decided to climb up a ladder and check in on us from the window of my room! I didn't know he was there until Devon pointed out that he thought a burglar was trying to break in. I screamed, which freaked my dad so much, he fell off the ladder and hurt his back. I felt bad for getting him injured but at least he learned a lesson. Don't spy when I'm with a guy!

Baby on board stickers cause one in
20 accidents

Designed to alert the emergency
services that a baby or small
child is in the car in the event of
an accident and encourage other
drivers to be more careful around
them, the stickers are being
criticised as a distraction in their
own right.
In part the problem is because
they can obscure a driver's vision through the car's rear window. The
findings, based on a survey by Confused.com, led to calls for drivers to
use the signs with discretion.
"Motorists need to ensure that their view is not obscured and that they
have a clear view of the road around them at all times," said a Department
for Transport spokesman. There was also an appeal for drivers to
generally cut the clutter in the cars for safety reasons.

ME-WOW!

1 An American couple from Portland, in
the north western state of Oregon,
had to make an emergency call to
911 for police assistance when their
four-year-old male Himalayan pet cat,
called Lux, started charging at them
and their dog. The cat, weighing
about 10kg, first attacked the
couple’s seven-month-old infant.
Owner Lee Palmer said the cat
became aggressive after the baby had pulled his tail. He then tried to get
the cat off his son by grabbing it by his neck, enraging the cat even more.
“We’ve found safety in our bedroom, the windows are locked but he won’t
let us out of the door, so we’re trapped,” Palmer told the emergency
services dispatcher. The cat’s yowls could be heard on the 911 tape too.
“Our cat in the rear has gone over the edge. He was trying to attack us.
He’s very hostile. He’s at our door now, he’s charging us,” he added.
[FIGUUR: Close-up van de kop van een langharige kat, voornamelijk zwart met wit gezicht en snorharen.]

2 The police told the owner to keep the door shut until they would arrive for
help. A police dog was enlisted to help capture the cat, who will remain
behind bars until the owners have decided what to do about their pet. The
baby had suffered a scratch on his forehead from the cat in the past as
well. Despite Lux’s past record of violent behaviour, the family do not want
to give him away.

Scared of the Dark ...
Question:
I am due to go camping in the South of France with my best mate and his
family. We have been friends for years. The trouble is I have all of a
sudden become afraid of the dark. I feel like the darkness is suffocating
me and I start to panic.
I haven’t told my parents as my elder brother would find out and tell
everyone. How can I cancel the camping trip without losing my best mate?
Jon

Answer:
It sounds like this is worrying you a lot. Lots of people have fears about
different things but it is important that this is manageable and not affecting
the choices you make in your life. I am wondering if you can think of ways
to cope with your fear of the dark such as listening to relaxing music, or
having a small night light on. If you feel that your concerns are affecting
your choices you may want to see your doctor as he would be able to
offer you some more suggestions. And don’t cancel the trip to France,
you’ll regret it later!

That's Show Biz!
Chill out with hot new pop boys EMBLEM3

1 Great to meet you! So who are
EMBLEM3?
WESLEY: Well, we started our
band when we were in middle
school. I was 11, my brother
Keaton was nine and our friend
Drew was 13. We were just
playing local clubs until last year
when we went on US X Factor
and came fourth. We signed with
Simon Cowell's label, recorded an
album and here we are!
KEATON: We're a pop group. Some people call us a boy band, but we
write all our own material and play all our own instruments. Hopefully the
music speaks for itself.
So what does EMBLEM3 mean?
KEATON: We wanted something to represent who we are, and we liked
the word Emblem because it means icon and there's three of us! We call
our fans Emblems, but also like to call them supporters or friends.

2 Tell us about your on stage experiences.
DREW: One time I wished a guy happy birthday but said his name wrong!
I was like, "Everybody say happy birthday to Gary, stand up Gary," and
nobody stood up. More time passed and still no one got up and then
I heard someone whisper: "It's Greg!". That was very embarrassing.
KEATON: I forgot the lyrics once; but I just laughed and the other boys
helped me out. I've tripped over on stage plenty of times, but you just roll
over and get up.
What about strange fan moments?
WESLEY: Some girls started fighting when we were performing once. It
was so bad, we actually had to stop our set and be like, "Stop it! What are
you guys doing?"

3 Who plays which role in the band?
KEATON: I am the most grown-up, even though I'm the youngest. I've
always been responsible and a bit bossy. I try to keep the others in check
but it doesn't always work.
WESLEY: Drew's always messing around. He often goes off topic and
talks about something totally weird.
DREW: I go out the most but only get into trouble if I'm caught! I like
meeting random people and going on adventures.

[FIGUUR: A black and white photo of three young men, likely the band EMBLEM3, posing for a photo. One man in the foreground on the left is wearing a cap and a jacket with a logo on it. The other two men are standing behind him.]

4 It's nearly Christmas, are you excited?
KEATON: I am! I love Christmas! We're from Washington State but it's a
yearly tradition that we go to California and surf.
WESLEY: I love having the family together to eat a big dinner, it's such a
good vibe.
DREW: I love the parties. Last year the three of us went skinny-dipping in
the ocean.
What's been your fave present?
DREW: A guitar. I actually smashed it on stage a long time ago, but we
signed the pieces because we knew one day we'd be famous.
WESLEY: Me and Keaton got motorcycles from our favourite aunt Sarah.

Mizz, 2014

1p 7 Waarom wil EMBLEM3 een popgroep genoemd worden in plaats van een
boyband? (alinea 1)
A omdat ze alle drie volwassen zijn
B omdat ze hun eigen muziek maken
C omdat ze maar met z'n drieën zijn

1p 8 Wat beschrijven de leden van EMBLEM3 in alinea 2?
A dat er wel eens dingen misgaan tijdens hun optredens
B dat ze regelmatig lastiggevallen worden door fans
C dat ze vaak door elkaar gehaald worden

2p 9 Geef van elk van de volgende beweringen uit alinea 3 aan over wie deze
gaat. Kies uit: Drew, Keaton of Wesley.
Vul de juiste naam in achter het getal in je uitwerkbijlage. Let op, je kunt
dezelfde naam meerdere keren gebruiken!
1 doet graag spannende dingen
2 is gauw afgeleid
3 gedraagt zich het meest volwassen
4 zorgt dat iedereen zich netjes gedraagt

2p 10 Geef van elke bewering over de leden van EMBLEM3 aan of die juist of
onjuist is volgens alinea 4.
Omcirkel 'juist' of 'onjuist' in je uitwerkbijlage.
1 Ze komen alle drie uit Californië.
2 Ze gingen een keer zwemmen zonder zwembroek aan.
3 Drew vraagt fans soms om hun handtekening op zijn gitaar te zetten.
4 Wesley en Keaton zijn familie van elkaar.

A Francesca
B Laura
C Runyararo
D Hannah
E Olivia

How to get whatever you want - A guide to
winning ANY argument

Francesca, 16:
"Whenever I ask my mum if I can get my bellybutton pierced, we have a
massive argument. It's my body, so why can't I make my own decision?"
DO THIS:
Find an approved piercing studio and don't do it behind her back - it'll
cause more arguments than the BB house on eviction night. If she really
hates piercings, negotiate. Say, "I'll wait six months. If I still want it done
then, can we talk again?"

Laura, 15:
"My mum doesn't want me to have 'too much' fun and she treats me like a
kid. So, if I go shopping and have a sleepover, she's like, 'Whoa, that's
enough!' and won't let me go out again. She's far too protective."
DO THIS:
Flaunt your maturity. Tell her how you negotiated an extension with your
teacher for everyone's Maths coursework - anything to remind her you no
longer play with dolls.

Runyararo, 15:
"When I ask my mum for cash, she gives me a lecture about the 'value of
money'. Once I was going to a party and she wouldn't give me £20 for a
new top. We argued all day and I arrived late at the party a panda-eyed
grump, wearing a rubbish outfit."
DO THIS:
Open a savings account and put in one tenth of your allowance/wages
each week. It'll impress them way more than you screaming your tonsils
out at them.

Hannah, 14:
"My mum and I argue like kids because she says my outfits are strange.
I wear unique things, like my customised Converse and she hates them.
I wish she'd get over it and take a look at her own wardrobe."
DO THIS:
Explain that your outfits are a way of expressing who you are and you
want her to be proud of that. Hopefully she'll realise your sloppy
boyfriend jeans aren't so bad.

Olivia, 16:
"The girls I hang out with are genuine and sweet. But because they go to
gigs, my mum dislikes them. She's even started trying to stop me going
out with them. I'm fed up with having a screaming match every time
I leave the house."
DO THIS:
Invite your friends over for dinner and let the charm offensive begin. It's
easier to get permission for nights out if your parents know the people
you're going with.

Meet photographer Teresa Berg
[FIGUUR: Een zwart-witfoto van een vrouw die lachend twee dachs-honden vasthoudt. Ze draagt een jas en een paar parels.]
1 Photographer Teresa Berg replaces a Rottweiler's
collar with a bright pink scarf. She picks the perfect
string of pearls to complement a dachshund's coat.
She's taking glamorous shots of shelter dogs, from
miniature poodles to Great Danes, in the hopes that her
spiffed-up subjects will be adopted more quickly. "Most
photos show dogs in cages, looking dirty and shabby,"
says Berg. "I consider my work like an antismoking
campaign. We have to make adopting cool."
2 When her father wouldn't allow her a dog of her own as
a kid, Berg roamed her Minneapolis neighbourhood rounding up homeless dogs
and hiding them in the family garage. "For a few hours I would imagine they were
my pets. Unfortunately, as soon as my dad came home from work he would let
them go," Berg recalls. Her father did, however, show her how to use a camera.
Together the pair took pictures and developed them in the darkroom at his office.
3 Over the years, she worked as a real estate agent, but she finally quit in 2006 to
launch a photography business. Searching the Internet for a dog to adopt, she
was instantly put off by photos she found online. "It was quite bizarre. They had
dirty laundry, empty pizza boxes or unmade beds in the background," she says.
"Sometimes it was hard to see the dog. I have even seen pictures with dirty
dishes in them."
4 Berg finally came across Flash, a 12-year-old, long haired dachshund who was
living in a Dallas rescue group. She went to pick him up and ended up
volunteering to take pictures of all 25 of the rescued dogs there for free. The
photos went up on the website of the rescue group and before long the director
noticed that adoptions had doubled compared with the previous year. She
attributed this to the professional photos, so Berg's work had paid off. "When
dogs are adopted more quickly, it makes room for others off the streets," Berg
says.
5 Berg has developed a few tricks to snap flattering pictures of the dogs: position
them so that the light falls on their faces, and shoot at eye level. "I spend a lot of
time lying on my stomach," she says. "It only needs a little extra to turn a dog's
life around. Make sure you move slowly around dogs, as they can get
enthusiastic and want to play with you. Try to be completely quiet and only
communicate non-verbally with them - through hand signals. I want to take all the
shelter dogs home; that's the hardest part of my work. I have a particular affinity
for dogs with gray muzzles."

Agatha Parrot and the Floating Head

Agatha beschrijft een dinsdagmiddag met haar vriendinnen Ivy en Martha.

The Start

1 Last Tuesday me and Ivy went to tea at Martha's house. Martha's mum works at the Spendless food shop and they have a slogan 'You'll spend less at Spendless' which is true. Most people go in, take one look around and then come out without spending anything at all. That's because Spendless never sells anything you might have heard of, but the good bit is that Martha's mum gets lots of random things to bring home and try out.

2 That night Martha's mum put three uncooked cheese and tomato pizzas on the table, then she opened up all the cupboards and got out the half-eaten pots and packets she could find. 'Choose your own toppings', she said. 'Put on whatever you like!' Martha's mum is big and jolly just like Martha. Most of the pots had labels with funny writing on them, so the only way to tell what was inside was by opening them up and having a look. The first one I tried turned out to be marmalade which isn't too bad on a pizza actually. I'd give it 6/10. Ivy found ham with red pepper bits (8/10), pineapple (10/10) and black berries in syrup (2/10 but Ivy LOVES them because she's nuts).

3 We put loads of stuff on the pizzas. I made a spider pattern. Martha did a rainbow and Ivy did a face with lots of mad hair made from spaggetty. (Or is it spaggety? Spahgetti? Sphengotti ... oh you know what I mean. It's that long stringy stuff you can eat with bollonays sauce. Bolonaiz. Bollonnaze ... OH FORGET IT.) She said it was supposed to be me because my hair is a bit impossible like my mum's is. At least it's better than having hair like my dad because he's bald as a light bulb. Ha Ha!

4 We'd just about finished loading up the pizzas when Martha opened a jar of yellowy-pink stuff which smelt like James' football socks (0/10).
'No way am I HAVING THAT!' said Ivy.
'Coward,' said Martha.
'Then I dare you to put it on YOUR pizza,' said Ivy.
That got Martha thinking. 'I've already got pineapple, beetroot, garlic
sauce, dried banana, olives and raspberry jam. Anything else might ruin
the taste.'
I had a look at the label on the jar. The only bit I could understand was the
'best before' date and it was ages away, so whatever it was should have
been safe enough.

5 Ivy gave Martha a poke in the ribs. 'Go on Martha, I dare you to eat all
that for a million billion pounds.' Ha! Martha would eat her own head for
20p. So for a million billion pounds she slopped the whole jar of yellow-
pink stuff all over her pizza (oh boy did it STINK or what?), and then her
mum came in and shoved all the pizzas in the oven. (...)

6 Soon the pizzas were out of the oven and being chopped up and then Ivy
was owing Martha a million billion pounds because Martha had eaten the
lot. Then Martha's mum came in and saw the strange jar was empty.
'Aha!' she said, sounding a bit surprised. 'I see you've finished off that
'octopus paste'.'
'Octopus paste?' gasped Martha.
Ivy started giggling and doing a strange underwater dance round the
kitchen. 'Whoa! Does that mean Martha might grow eight arms?'
Gosh, what a thought. Argh! Mind you, if Martha really did get eight arms,
she'd be scarier than mummies, vampires and zombies all put together!
AWESOME!

told us how much the special gift meant to her as we passed the delicate
piece around. But when my best friend went to hand it back to me, it
slipped out of my hands and I dropped it! Ms Cerulo shrieked and the
glass shattered all over the floor. I felt terrible!

Going Green
[FIGUUR: Een afbeelding van verschillende groenten zoals een kool, tomaten, pepers en een aubergine.]

1 Julie Cameron explains...
When I told my mother I was going to be a vegetarian, she didn't try to
make me change my mind, she simply said: “Fine, but I'm not making two
dinners.” She thought it was just a phase, something that I would grow out
of. After all, who can live their entire life without eating a hamburger, a
hotdog, or the traditional turkey at Thanksgiving? It turns out that lots of
people can.

2 You have to know that two of my uncles are butchers and they keep much
of my family in discount meat. For me to run into my parents' kitchen and
inform my mother that I would no longer eat the family steaks was, well,
unexpected to say the least.

3 Many times people have asked me WHY? Why, well there are lots of
reasons. I was never much of a steak fan, loved animals and when I was
little I had a friend who lived on a dairy farm. If you have ever given a cow
its own name, you will understand how difficult it is to sit down to a
hamburger.

4 I feel happy to be a vegetarian in a time when there are so many meat
alternatives. If you are thinking about becoming a vegetarian it's important
to eat healthy food. I eat beans and rice or other grains to make sure my
nutrition is balanced. And my friends and family appreciate that I don't try
to force my food choices on them!

Meet Fernie, the dog who's learned to read

1 Head teacher Nik Gardner brought Fernie, his own labrador, to Winford Primary School in Somerset when he was five months old as part of a national scheme called Dogs Helping Kids. Research has shown dogs can have a positive impact on children's literacy, behaviour and self-esteem. He said: "We find Fernie has a very positive effect on children's learning. He's also on hand for children who might feel nervous or anxious. A few minutes of cuddles really cheers them up."

2 After two years at primary school, the Labrador has learned to read himself. He can now respond to written commands to sit, lie down, roll over and spin around. Fernie's impressive reading skills have seen him rise to the top of the class. He is so advanced that he even helps out classmates learning new words. Brought in to encourage the children to enjoy reading by snuggling up with them at story time, Nik Gardner thinks Fernie is clever enough to learn another 20 instructions, written on identical cards. "Training Fernie to recognise words was surprisingly simple," he said.

3 However, leading dog expert Stan Rawlinson is sceptical about Fernie's reading skills. "We tend to look at an animal and think it does the same as we do," he said. "But it's totally impossible for an animal to read the spoken word. But they can look at a pattern. If there is a trigger, the picture can get the dog to do what it has learned. I never cease to be amazed by what dogs are capable of."

2p 32 Geef van elk van de volgende beweringen aan of die juist of onjuist is
volgens de tekst.
Omcirkel ‘juist’ of ‘onjuist’ in je uitwerkbijlage.
1 Michael vroeg zijn vriendin ten huwelijk vanaf Morro Rock.
2 Michael zette zijn gefilmde redding op Facebook.
3 Michael moet de kosten van zijn redding zelf betalen.
4 Alleen ervaren bergbeklimmers mogen Morro Rock beklimmen.
Romantic cliffside proposal
On a Thursday morning in April
Michael Banks (27) from Fresno
got stuck on Morro Rock in
California. He climbed up Morro
Rock, a 576ft landmark.
FaceTimed his girlfriend and
asked her to marry him. The
good news is that she said 'yes'.
And the bad news... Banks was
arrested by California state park
police for climbing Morro Rock, which is a violation of the law, city
manager Sam Taylor said. The video of the rescue posted by the city of
Morro Bay on its Facebook page went viral. But while internet viewers
were charmed by the cliff proposal, city officials were not.
On the video was a stern message: “The gentleman will be fined for the
helicopter ride and other related costs. We are glad all involved are OK,
and appreciate the hard work of our rescuers. Climbing Morro Rock is
illegal and dangerous. We hope folks will choose to view it from below,
saving themselves and us time and money and protecting everyone’s
safety."
Taylor said climbers are rescued from the rock several times a year,
although few incidents get so much attention

1p 33 Waarom wordt het speelgoedautootje de Bug Racer ‘worst toy idea ever’
genoemd?
Omdat dit speelgoed
A gemaakt is van milieuvervuilend materiaal.
B gevaarlijk is voor jonge kinderen.
C ontzettend diervriendelijk is.

BUG RACER

[FIGUUR: Een speelgoedautootje met insectenvleugels en koplampen.]

A toy company has been accused of
cruelty for selling a car driven by
caged insects. Medium to large
crickets have to be purchased
separately for the best vehicle
operation. Bug Racer was
condemned as the ‘worst toy idea
ever’ because of the way it treats its
crickets. Their nocturnal habits will
be disturbed as young
as six urge them into touching
sensors in their plastic ‘living
modules’ to steer the car.
The toy was developed by Toy Box,
part of Barbie-maker Mattel and
costs $20 in the US. The instructions say that up to five insects can be
crammed into the module, which slides into the top of the car.

It is not clear whether Mattel will sell the Bug Racer in the UK, although it
can be imported. Toy Box executive vice president Susie Lecker told the
gadget was humane, adding “We haven’t lost a cricket behind the wheel
yet.”
The website www.bugracercar.com also explains the proper care for
crickets which generally have a lifespan of a few weeks.
