I’ll have more friends when I’m 70 than I have now.

I’ll see my friends every day when I’m in my seventies.

When I’m old, my friends will be more important to me than they are now.

I’ll argue a lot less with my friends when we’re old. I’ll still be making new friends even in my seventies.

All of the friends I have now will still be friends when I’m 70. I’m looking forward to being 70 and talking to my friends. Write down questions about friendship and old age.

Ask other classmates your questions and note down their answers. Go back to your original partner / group and compare your findings. Make mini-presentations to other groups on your findings.

‘BEST PARTY EVER’ COSTS PARENTS $20,000

The parents of an Australian teenager may have a $20,000 bill to pay

for damages caused at a party held by their son. Corey Delaney, 16, decided


to throw a party in his house on Saturday night while his parents were on vacation. He posted an open invitation on the MySpace website, which re- sulted in 500 teenagers showing up at his Melbourne home. The youths got drunk and started damaging neighbouring properties. After complaints from neighbours, 30 police officers, police dogs and a backup helicopter went to break up the party. The young partygoers threw rocks and stones at the police and their cars. The state police commissioner Christine Nixon told a news conference that Corey “needs to learn a lesson, and one way or another we’ll be making sure that happens”.

Corey seemed proud of his party when reporters interviewed him. Australia’s Nine Network TV news asked him what advice he had for other teenagers planning a party. His reply was: “Get me to do it for you!” He added that he had organized the “best party ever”. Corey explained how the party grew to be so big: “It was just an open house party and a lot of people came and it overflowed onto the street… The cops came and told all the people to quiet down… There were people bottling cars and the whole streets were flooded with people”, he said. His parents were furious at their son’s actions: “We’re absolutely disgusted that he could do this, not only to us but to our neighbourhood”, his mother said. Corey was apolo- getic towards his neighbours, saying: “It was really unfair what happened to them”.
