Listening, 10 .3.

Read and listen to the following text about Isabelle.

The class president at work.

Hi, I'm Isabelle.

I'm a seventh grade student in Birmingham Secondary School.

When the school started in September, I wanted to be a candidate for class presidency

and ran a campaign with my close friends.

We prepared posters and put them up on the walls.

My friends found a slogan for my election campaign and I gave a speech before the election.

The result made me very happy because I became the new class president.

Being a president is great, but I have a lot of responsibilities too.

First, working as a team is very important.

When there is a problem, I work with other students to solve it.

We ask about each other's opinions and listen to each other carefully.

Then, I inform the school leaders about our solutions.

I also lead meetings and organize student activities and events.

When I make plans, I always listen to my teachers and friends' advice.

We have a suggestion box and I read the notes in it every day to do my best for everyone.

I love my teachers and my friends.

I feel lucky to be a student in this democratic school.

Having responsibilities is fun and I really enjoy what I do.
