How good are we at predicting what people will do? What magazine will they buy, what music will they download or what shoes will they choose for a party? Probably not nearly as good as we think. When it comes to human behaviour, the brain is shown to have two different approaches to thinking. So it doesn’t matter how old you are or how confident you’re feeling, it’s all about what mood the brain is in!

JACKSIЕ ЕVANCHO It was while watching the musical version of Phantom of the Opera on TV that Jackie Evancho found her passion for music. She started singing the songs around her home and revealed a surprisingly mature singing voice. Jackie started entering local singing contests and after seeing the reaction of audiences, her parents realised her potential.
From there, Jackie's life changed dramatically. Her mum started uploading Jackie's performances to the web to share with her ever-increasing numbers of fans. Jackie used the clips to enter an audition for the TV show, America's Got Talent and won a place on the show! Although she wasn't quite good enough to win the show -she finished in second place - it was an incredible achievement. Since the show, she's worked as a professional singer. She's released several albums, toured the US and even starred in a Hollywood thriller.

Anna wanted to be a singer in a musical, but she was very nervous so she asked her friend Margot to help her practise her songs. Anna asked Margot to go with her when she tried for a part, but she was too nervous to be able to sing well. The director didn’t give the part to any of the girls who applied for it. Then he noticed Margot in the waiting room and thought she looked right for the character. He asked her to sing for him. Luckily she knew the songs because she’d helped Anna to practise them. She didn’t think she had a chance of getting the part, so she wasn’t nervous. As she had a good voice, she sang very well and got the part.

   The English Vocabulary Profi le (EVP) is an online resource providing detailed information about the words, phrases, phrasal verbs and idioms that learners of English know and use at each of the six levels of the CEFR. The vocabulary syllabus of Prepare! has been informed by using EVP to ensure that students at each CEFR level are presented with high-frequency words and phrases that are suitable for their language level and relevant to each unit topic. Many of the most common words in English have a great number of different meanings, and a thorough knowledge of these words helps students to operate successfully even with limited language. The special Word profi le feature in Levels 4–7 deals with these powerful words in detail. Furthermore, the main vocabulary sections regularly focus on aspects other than ‘concrete’ topic nouns and verbs, such as adjectives and adverbs, prepositions, phrasal verbs, word families and phrases. All of these aspects are important if the syllabus is to provide true breadth and depth.

I really like going round the markets with my friends. There are markets on the first Sunday of the month near my house. They sell lots of different things. The market is divided up into different areas so for example there’s the food area. You can’t miss it because there’s a big sign above the entrance. You can do your weekly grocery shopping, you know, fruit and vegetables, or you can just have a coffee and a piece of cake there. Then there's the clothes section, which my sister loves but I think is really boring. I mean, clothes are clothes! One thing I like best about the market  is the second-hand goods area - that’s where you can find anything and everything! There are old books, furniture, kitchen equipment and some really amazing objects. The other week I found a really old paperweight; you use it to stop papers from blowing away. It’s made of heavy glass and it's beautiful because you can see different colours in it. I think it's an antique. But I think the best part is the entertainment. There's always someone playing some У 4 music. It’s such a great atmosphere.

American teenager Emily Hagins showed a strong interest in films and film-making at a young age, and often happily sat through some movies several times at her local movie theatre in Austin, Texas. She once wrote a letter to Peter Jackson, the director of her favourite series of films The Lord of the Rings. In his reply, he suggested a useful contact for Emily, who she later got in touch with. Emily started by producing several short films and a documentary.
Her father was helpful early on, having spent time with directors on film sets due to his job in advertising. However, although he guided her through what needed to be done, he made sure he left all the i directing up to Emily.
