My sister Sara usually wears trainers 
but 
today 
she’s 
wearing 
really 
expensive shoes. Is her boyfriend Joe 
wearing elegant shoes too?

11 a.m. Sara and Dad often argue 
about little things. But at the moment 
they’re trying hard to be nice.

8 p.m. All the guests are dancing
now – even the people that hate 
dancing! Does Mum like Joe? I think 
she does. They’re dancing together!

My big brother Liam is staying with 
us! He lives in Italy, so we don’t see 
him very often. He still doesn’t know 
how to put on a tie!

2 p.m. Nathan is Joe’s cousin. He 
comes from New York. He says he 
doesn’t like speaking in public but he’s 
making a really funny speech.

4 p.m. All the children agree – the 
cake tastes delicious!

We use the Present   Simple for:

·  facts that don’t change 
·  routines and habits 

 Time expressions :  never, hardly ever, sometimes, often, 
usually, every day/week, most days 

 We use the Present Continuous for: 

·  things happening now 
·  temporary situations 

 Time expressions :  at the moment, (right) now, these 
days, today, this morning/year 

Grammar Reference and Practice > page 175

WATCH OUT !
State and action verbs 
With action verbs, we use simple and continuous tenses: 
 She  speaks three languages. She ’s speaking to me now . 

 With state verbs (e.g. agree, believe, hate, know, like, love, 
mean, see, taste, think, want), we only use simple tenses:

It tastes great. NOT It is tasting great.

Psychologist Nicky Wood takes 
a look at friendship

Two women are sitting in a café together. They’re drinking 
coffee and sharing a piece of chocolate cake. One woman 
is talking. The other woman is listening carefully. The fi rst 
woman seems sad. She starts crying. The other woman 
doesn’t speak; she just hands her companion a tissue and 
gently touches her arm. The fi rst woman stops crying, 
smiles and hugs her friend.

American politician Hubert Humphrey said, ‘The greatest 
gift of life is friendship.’ But what exactly is friendship? 
What is a friend? How do we make friends? How do we 
keep them? Why do we need them?

According to psychologists, we get on with people who 
share the same background, opinions, interests, personality 
and even physical appearance. People with glasses often 
sit next to other people with glasses. The saying that 
‘opposites attract’ appears not to be true. If you love 
dancing, your friends probably love dancing too.

Scientifi c studies show that we all like people to like us. 
And if they like us, we like them. If they spend time with 
us or tell us their secrets, we want to do the same. So you 
often become friends with someone who wants to be your 
friend.

Good friends are fun to be with but they’re hard to fi nd. 
It’s true you can make lots of contacts on social media, 
but are they real friends or just acquaintances? Can you 
be open with them? Can you rely on them? Sometimes we 
don’t even know if an online ‘friend’ is a real person or 
someone with a fake identity. 

True friendships last for a lifetime, but to have a real 
friendship you need to do things together and share your 
feelings and opinions. Studies show that true friendship 
survives even when friends are in different countries. But 
only if you keep in touch. If you don’t, friendships can die.

An old proverb tells us that ‘a friend in need is a friend 
indeed’. That means you can tell who your real friends are 
when you’re in trouble. Real friends stay with you and 
help you when you need them. They never let you down 
or turn their back on you.

Finally, what’s the difference between a good friend and 
your best friend? Well, a good friend knows about your 
life; your best friend lives your life with you. Best friends 
know what you’re thinking and how you feel. They 
understand you, perhaps better than you understand 
yourself. You don’t have to pretend when you’re with your 
best friend; you can be yourself. Sometimes you don’t 
even need to speak. Just like that woman in the café.
