Revision

These people have phoned ‘Advice Line’ to discuss personal problems and get some help. Read what they say and complete the spaces with the correct form of a phrase with body parts. Sasha:My best friend is going through a really tough time because she found out her boyfriend was cheating on her. She says she loved him and he broke her heart so she’s never going to fall in love ever again. What can I do to help her?Adam:The problem is that although my brother is really clever and he’s going to get good grades when he finishes his exams, he doesn’t want to go to university. He just wants to get a job straightaway so he can start earning his own money. My mum and dad are trying to change his mind but he dug his heels in and they are upset because they think he’s throwing away a good opportunity. What do you think?Mia:At the end of this year my grandad is going to retire after working for the same company for forty years. You’d think that stopping work would be a weight off his shoulders and something to look forward to. But he says he doesn’t want to retire and he’s probably going to go mad with boredom! He sounds really depressed about it. What’s your advice?Caleb:I wasn’t chosen for the hockey team this season. I was off school sick during the week the team was selected so I missed out. What makes it hard to swallow is that last year I was one of the top goal-scorers. I don’t think it’s fair but I’m not sure what to do about it. Now try to give advice to these four people.
