Liebes Tagebuch,

Heute sollten wir im Sportunterricht schwimmen. Ich war als erste im Badeanzug und sprang ins Schwimmbad. Leider war der Lehrer noch nicht da. Dann kam er und ich musste raus aus dem Schwimmbad, denn ohne Lehrer darf kein Schüler ins Wasser. Als Strafe, sagte er, dass ich zwei Wochen lang nicht schwimmen darf. Das war so unfair! Ich war sehr sauer. Dann sammelte ich ein paar Frösche im Garten. Diese Frösche legte ich in die Kleidung meiner Klassenkameradinnen. Als die Mädchen vom Schwimmen kamen und sich anziehen wollten, sprangen die Frösche aus den Kleidern. Sie schrien sehr laut und liefen aus dem Umkleideraum.

Alle waren wütend!

Eine Reise auf dem Rhein

Manfred 16/5/2016 18:00

Hallo, Katrin, in zwei Wochen fangen die Ferien an. Was hast du für Pläne für die Sommerferien?

Katrin 16/5/2016 18:10

Oh, Manfred, ich werde eine Rheinfahrt machen.

Manfred 16/5/2016 20:00

Was? Mit einem dieser großen Touristenschiffe, die von Deutschland bis nach Holland fahren? Da sind doch nur alte, reiche Leute an Bord. Es wird bestimmt stinklangweilig sein.

Katrin 16/5/2016 20:05

Nein, so viel Geld habe ich auch nicht. Ich fahre mit einem der Lastschiffe. Die nehmen nur ein oder zwei Passagiere mit.

Manfred 17/5/2016 8:00

Und was ist der Vorteil von solch einer Schifffahrt?

Katrin 17/5/2016 20:00

Die Lastschiffe stoppen in jeder Stadt am Rhein. Ich habe dann genug Zeit, mir die alten und romantischen Städte anzuschauen. Auch ist es nicht so teuer. Wenn ich an Bord mithelfe, zum Beispiel Essen koche, dann wird es noch billiger. Meine Freundin hat letztes Jahr so eine Reise gemacht und war total begeistert. Sie will jetzt nur noch mit Lastschiffen fahren.

Question 14 (6 marks)

Read the text, then answer the questions that follow.

Ein Interview mit Frau Schubert

HERR HANSEN: Frau Schubert, Sie sind Musikerin und spielen Saxofon. Seit wann spielen Sie dieses Instrument?

FRAU SCHUBERT: Ich hatte als Kind angefangen, Klavier zu spielen, aber da wir viel gereist sind, wollte ich dann lieber ein Instrument spielen, das ich mitnehmen konnte. Und so fing ich mit 13 Jahren an, das Saxofon zu spielen.

HERR HANSEN: Inzwischen sind Sie berühmt und spielen in vielen Konzerthallen. Aber in den letzten sechs Wochen haben Sie etwas ganz Neues gemacht.

FRAU SCHUBERT: Ja, ich habe in einem Gefängnis Musikunterricht gegeben.

HERR HANSEN: War das nicht etwas gefährlich für Sie?

FRAU SCHUBERT: Nun, zu Beginn war ich etwas ängstlich. Ich arbeitete mit 18 Männern zwischen 21 und 40 Jahren, die schon alle ziemlich lange im Gefängnis lebten. Aber jetzt weiß ich, dass mir nichts passieren wird.

HERR HANSEN: Was für Musik spielen Sie?

FRAU SCHUBERT: Big Band Musik. Die meisten haben noch nie ein Instrument in der Hand gehabt und auch noch nie mit anderen kooperieren müssen. Bei mir lernen sie ein Instrument zu spielen und zusammen zu arbeiten. Sehr schnell wird aus den 18 Männern eine Gruppe. Sie unterstützen einander und beginnen, richtig Musik zu machen. Wir haben auch ein Programm in Schulen angefangen. Wir helfen Schülern, die Probleme haben. Auch in den Schulen haben wir Erfolg gehabt.

HERR HANSEN: Das klingt ja sehr positiv. Haben Sie einen Wunsch für die Zukunft, Frau Schubert?

FRAU SCHUBERT: Ja. Meine ideale Big Band würde aus den großen Politikern der Welt bestehen. Wenn die zusammen harmonische Musik machen könnten, würde die Welt danach eine andere sein.

Read the text, then answer the questions that follow.

Olivers Überraschung!

Oliver, ein 18 jähriger Schüler eines Gymnasiums in Berlin, stand ein halbes Jahr vor dem Abitur. Danach wollte er an der Universität Zoologie studieren.

Er war ein guter Schüler, Naturwissenschaft and Mathematik waren seine Lieblingsfächer. Zu Hause hatte er drei Aquarien mit exotischen Fischen, ein Terrarium mit giftigen Schlangen und am Fenster stand eine große Kakteensammlung. Er saß stundenlang vor dem Computer und suchte im Internet Informationen über seltene Tiere und Pflanzen. Seine Großeltern hatten ihm immer Bücher über Botanik und Zoologie geschenkt.

Sein Berufsziel war, Forscher zu werden.

Ganz plötzlich hatte er kein Interesse mehr an seinem Privatzoo. Er hat seine exotischen Fische einem zoologischen Geschäft verkauft und die giftigen Schlangen der Universität geschenkt und die Kakteen hat er der Stadt für den Stadtpark gegeben.

Gleich nachdem Abitur ist er nach Afrika gefahren und macht dort Sozialarbeit mit armen Leuten. Seine Eltern und Freunde waren total überrascht.
