Student's Book Elementary
Smart is an exciting new four level course with a strong
grammatical base for secondary school students, taking them from
beginner level to intermediate.
The course introduces new language through ten topic-based units
in which dialogues and reading texts help present new grammar
and vocabulary in situations which are of interest to this age
group. Fun characters which appear throughout the course also
help present new language items.
Key features in the Student's Book include:
• Further help with grammar in "Help Boxes" within each lesson
• A "Language Plus" page which gives additional grammar
practice
• "Stopover pages" after the fifth and tenth units giving
consolidation of language already covered
• Coverage of the four skills of speaking, listening, reading and
writing
A grammar reference section for support

VENICE IS A SMALL CITY, and
about 75,000 people live there.
Many people who work in Venice
live in Mestre, a modern industrial
city. Most people in Venice live in
beautiful apartment buildings.
Tourism is very important, and
many people work in hotels and
restaurants. There are also many
art galleries and old palaces.
People don’t drive cars or use
roads. They walk or travel by boat
on the canals. Tourists enjoy trips
in small boats called gondolas.
Venice is a tourist city. Thousands
of tourists visit the old city at
Easter and at carnival time in
February. Another popular festival
is the Vogalonga in May. People
row in small boats around the city,
but it is not a race. People sit in
cafes and talk, or they go to
restaurants and enjoy local food.
They also go swimming, but not in
the canals!

Drop, Stay and Come
When a dog is off its lead, it must learn to come back.
Call a young puppy and use its name. When the
puppy is carrying an object, take this from its mouth,
and repeat the command 'Drop’. For 'Stay’, use a
retractable lead (see illustration). Say ‘Sit’, and then
repeat 'Stay’. Walk away, and let out the lead.
Don’t let the puppy follow you. When you
reach the end of the lead, call ‘Come’.
Sit
Teach a puppy from the age of three
months. Tell the dog to sit before
you put its food on the floor. Give
the command at the same time. You
must give the dog its food, though!
It is hungry, so you mustn’t punish

The River Danube (or Donau) is one of Europe's
great rivers. It is about 3,000 km long. The
beginning of the Danube - its source - is in the
Black Forest in Germany. Ships can travel to the
River Main, and then to the Rhine and Northern
Europe. At Passau, the River Inn joins the Danube,
and the river flows through the mountains of
Austria. When it reaches Vienna, it is 300
metres wide.

three small rivers, and flows into the Black Sea.

In space These days,
American astronauts eat
normal food. There is a choice
of about 90 kinds of food,
even sausages and ice-
cream! Some food is in tins,
and some is dried - the
astronauts add water to it.
Each astronaut has food for
four days.
On a mountain
Mountaineers carry all their
food, Dried food is popular
because it is light to carry.
Most mountaineers also carry
chocolate bars because they
contain lots of energy. They
usually carry emergency food
too. This is about 300 grams of
cooked food in an envelope.
Under the sea
On a modern submarine, like
the USS Indianapolis, the sailors
eat salads, chicken, and
vegetables - not fried food!
'We want food to be tasty but
healthy - my favourite is
vegetable lasagne,' says one
of the sailors.
In a plane Every day
passengers on planes all over
the world eat nearly three
million meals. Passengers eat
over 500 million peanuts every

usually include salad, meat or
fish and dessert. It's possible to

Dracula appears in many horror
films, but did he really exist?
The British writer Bram Stoker
invented the character in his
book Dracula. This appeared in
1897. Stoker used a real person
for some ideas in his book. A
king, VladTepes, lived around
1450. He lived in a castle in
Poenan, now a part of Rumania.
Bela Lugosi, a Hungarian actor,
starred in the first Dracula film
in 1931.
Robin Hood
Robin Hood didn’t really exist. In songs
and stories, he lived in Sherwood
Forest, near Nottingham in England. He
robbed rich people and helped poor
people. The songs and stories first
appeared about five hundred years ago.
Robin Hood is still a famous person,
and there are many films about him.

A scientist called Frankenstein existed
- as a character in a book, but not as a
monster. Frankenstein appeared in a
novel by Mary Shelley (1818). In the
book, Frankenstein created a monster.
The monster wanted people to love it,
but they feared it.The monster turned
into a lonely and unhappy creature, and
in the end it killed Frankenstein.There
are many horror films about this.

The Romans built cars and
planes, and many Roman
buses still exist today. They
also made films, and we can
still see them, but, of course,
they made them in Latin. The
Romans watched TV every
day in a special building. They
met their friends there. Rich
people ate all kinds of food and
drank coffee. They also had
sports, especially chariot
racing and fighting.
The fighters fought wild
animals, or one another.
Women also fought in the
army, because the Romans had
many enemies. Many ordinary
people were slaves, and
worked very hard. The
children of poor parents went
to school. They learned
English and Greek, geometry,

I ц»* f। t’<
Once upon a time there was an unhappy
shoemaker. He wanted to be rich because he
thought this was the only way to be happy. One
day he complained about his poverty to an old
man. The old man told him what to do. 'Go to
the castle and look for the golden duck. It’s
really a princess, and she will tell you what
to do.’
The shoemaker was excited and went to the
castle. There he searched the dungeons. When
he saw the duck, she turned into a beautiful
princess. 'I want to be rich and happy,’ he said.
The princess made a magic spell and gave him a
hundred gold coins. ‘Spend all this money
tomorrow,’ the princess said, 'but only on
yourself, not on other people. Then when you
have nothing I will make you rich.’
5c v w Read the second part of the story.
What did the shoemaker learn in the end?
'This is easy!’ thought the shoemaker, and the
next day he started spending the money. In the
evening, though, he still had lots of money left.
Then he met an old soldier, a beggar, with one
leg. ‘I’m hungry, help me,’ he said. The
shoemaker felt sorry for him and gave him some
money. The magic spell stopped working, and
the princess appeared. ‘You gave some money to
another person,’ she said. ‘I cannot make you
rich.’ Then the old soldier said to the shoemaker
'Don’t be unhappy. Hard work and good health
bring happiness, not money.’ At last the
shoemaker understood. He worked hard, saved
money, and started his own shop. In time he got
married and had a family, and always helped
poor people because he knew the meaning of
happiness. And he lived happily ever after.
