Caroline, Sarah and Nadia are all students at Park School, in the northwest of England. It's an all-girls school. The Park School for boys is not far away in the same town.
The three girls are all 14 and they're in Grade 9. During the school day, they study subjects on the National Course: subjects like English, Maths, History, Geography, PE and ICT (Information and Communication Technology). They also study two or three languages (for example, French or Spanish) and they do Science: Biology, Chemistry and Physics. And they each do two creative subjects: they can choose from Music, Technology and Drama. But there's more.
"The school's clubs got lots of extracurricular things, too—especially clubs," says Nadia. "If we want to, we can do all kinds of different activities. For example, there's a horse-riding club and a gymnastics club. Lots of the clubs meet at lunchtime, but some of them are afterschool clubs."
Caroline says, "We can choose from lots of things. There's a theatre group, and a school orchestra. I'm in the orchestraoI play the trombone." "My favorite club is the pottery club," says Sarah. "I love doing artistic things. But I'm in the sailing club, too. The boys from the boys' school come to this club, too. We learn about sailing during the weekdays, and then on some weekends we sail in a lake near here."
Teachers organize some of the clubs at the school. Some clubs get help from parents of children at the school. All of them are free.

Experts in nutrition suggest that we should eat at least five different kinds of vegetables and fruit a day. They are very necessary for our health and help our bodies work well. They can help reduce the risk of getting ill. There are a lot of vegetables and fruit to choose from and they taste delicious. 1.
It's easy to buy our food from the local supermarket, so why do we go to the trouble of growing our own? Here are several good reasons：
2. You can pick and eat it at once. When you have tried it, you will agree that vegetables and fruit that are eaten straight from the garden taste better than anything you can buy in a supermarket.
You may want to cut down on your “food miles”—the distance that a product has travelled before it reaches your kitchen. Many food packages are flown halfway across the earth. 3.
Homegrown food is likely to be healthier. Food producers often use fertilizers and pesticides which can end up in your food. If you grow your own, things are different. 4. You might also choose to grow some traditional vegetables and fruit. These often have more important things that keep you healthy.
5. And you can grow your own even if you only have a small backyard. Some food can grow well in pots, including tomatoes, potatoes and carrots. You can recycle plastic bottles and cups to grow something. Just make sure there are holes for drainage and a small plate under them to catch drops of water.
A.Best of all, you can grow your own!
B.That's not so good for you, or for the planet.
C.Food that you grow yourself is always fresh.
D.If you have a large garden, growing your own is easy.
E.You can control what goes on and into the food you eat.
