2A Right place, wrong person

Laura, 26, a nurse

Last spring my best friend Isabelle and I booked a holiday in Venice. We rented a small apartment for a week with a fantastic view of the canals. At the last moment another friend, Linda, asked if she could come too. We felt sorry for her because she had problems with her boyfriend, so we said yes.
Venice was magical and the weather was perfect, but the holiday was a disaster for one simple reason: Linda was so mean! She has a good job so she’s not poor, but she just didn’t want to pay for anything. When we went sightseeing she didn’t want to go to any museums or galleries that cost money. When we went on a gondola she complained that it was very expensive. When we went to have lunch or dinner she always wanted to go to cheap restaurants or she bought pizzas and ate them in the flat. But the night I invited her and Isabelle out on my birthday she chose the most expensive things on the menu! The worst thing was that although Isabelle and I paid for the apartment, Linda never once bought us a coffee or a drink.
I’d love to go back to Venice one day…but without Linda

Hannah met Jamie in the summ er of 2010.   It was Hannah's 21 st birthday and she and her friends went to a club. They wanted   to dance, but they didn't like the music, so Hannah went to speak to the DJ. 'This music is awful,' she said. 'Could you play something else?' The DJ looked at her and said, 'Don't worry, I have the perfect song for you.' . Two minutes lat er he said, 'The next song is by Scouting For Girls.

2B The story behind the photo

Resim
A moment in history on 4th November I arrived in Chicago late in the evening. I wanted to photograph Barack Obama and his family in the Convention Center, but when I got there I discovered that I didn't have my press pass and I couldn't go inside.I walked around the park outside the center. Although it was November, it was a warm night. The atmosphere was wonderful. When I took  this photo everybody was looking at the TV screens waiting for the election results.Some people were quietly holding hands and smiling-others were tense and nervous. They felt that it was their moment.Suddenly I realized that this was a better place to be than inside. I was watching Obama's victory through the faces of all these people,African,Hispanic,Chinese,white. At about 11 o'clock the results were announced,and everybody went mad.People started laughing, shouting, and crying. But when Obama made his speech they all became quiet and emotional.There was only one place to be on the planet
