A student
Nick Harrington is eighteen and in his final year at school. He _____(take) three ‘A’ levels this summer in Maths, Physics and Computer Studies.
Unfortunately, he _____(not work) very hard and his teachers are not happy with his progress. They think he is spending too much time playing his guitar and reading music magazines.
“We’re supposed to spend every evening and weekend revising for exams but I can’t be bothered. I hate revising. It’s so boring. I’ll be glad to see the last of my physics textbook. I’m sorry I didn’t take music instead for ‘A’ level.”
Although he claims that he can’t sing very well, Nick is quite a talented musician and ______(play) the piano as well as the guitar. ”One thing which impresses people is that I can listen to something and then just play it. I’m lucky, I suppose. I’ve got a good ear for music.”
In his spare time he plays in a band. They usually ______(play) together three evenings a week. He ______(give) a few concerts at school but he’s not allowed to give any public performances in town. He would like someone important in the music business to “discover” him but he knows that is easier said than done.
Nick goes to an expensive private boarding school called Eton, where he lives during the term. His friends at home who go to the local state school sometimes _____(tease) him about going to a private school. Nick doesn’t care too much about what they say. “School’s only a small part of your life. In some ways it doesn’t really matter where you go. It’s the future that’s important. The best part of this year is that I ______(leave) school at the end of term!”
