Themis: May I have the menu please?
Marina: You can get it on your own. It's over there.
Themis: OK. Hmmm, let's see... I would like to have green salad and some chicken.
Marina: We have run out of salad. Bad luck!
Themis: I would like to have some red wine, too.
Marina: I am too tired to go to the kitchen and tell the chef what you want. Do you know that I have to study English all day long?
Themis: I understand. Can you give me a napkin, at least, please?
Marina: I think that you want too many things .I told you that I am so tired. Anyway, I will bring the food.
Themis: (while eating) Excuse me. May I have more wine,please?
Marina: I think that you drink too much, but that's your problem. Here you are.
Themis: May I have the bill, please?
Marina: Oh, of course you can have the bill. It's 100€, but I want 20€ for a tip!
Themis: I've had enough! I would like to speak to your boss, young lady!
Marina: OK, but you'll have to wait. He's eating at the restaurant opposite the street.
(Finally, Themis presents his evaluation report.)
David Blaine is a famous illusionist who broke many records, but only one of them was recognised by the Guinness Book of Records' judges.David stood on a column 90 metres high and 55,88 centimetres wide for 11/2 days at Vertigo in 2002.In 2003 in London he lived in a small glass box in mid-air for 44 days,without food.In 2008 in Chicago he held his breath under water for 17 minutes and 44 seconds.
He wants to break a record for not sleeping, but it is very difficult. GOOD LUCK DAVID!

This Easter was the best Easter ever.This Easter I had a great time. At Easter I always go to my grandparents' house.I went to the church with my family on Holy Wednesday,Thursday ,Friday and Saturday.After the church on Holy Saturday I went to my uncle Kostas and I ate lamb,potatoes and green and traditional salad. On Easter Sunday I went with my family to my uncle Dimitris and we ate lamb and salad. Anyway, this Easter was fantastic.
The proposal
Our city wants to build a hotel. There are some advantages and disadvantages about it.
Two reasons not to build a hotel OR: The disadvantages of a new hotel
There are two main reasons why a hotel is not useful. First of all, the air pollution will be more, because more cars will be there. The second problem is that the traffic and all the cars will make very big noise and the neighboorhood's life will change and that change will not be very good.
The advantages of a new hotel in the city
There are many advantages of building a new hotel. Firstly, we have a beautiful city, so with a new hotel more tourists will come. This means more money. Secondly, the owner wil hire a lot of employees, so we will have less unemployement. Also, our city has many pieces of land, which are not used. Therefore, the hotel is going to be built on this land.
Recommendations and suggestions
As a student, I strongly support that our city needs a hotel. All the hotels, in our beautiful city are not good, so a nice one will be able to make tourists come to the hotel. But this is my personal opinion. I think we must start a petition to let the local residents express their opinion and solve the problem.
