He was quite thin and pale. He had red, bushy hair and a square jaw.
She looks almost the same as she did ten years ago, with smooth skin and straight black hair, because jogging has kept her slim and fit.

Her hair has got a lot longer and she wears it in a ponytail. She also has freckles on her cheeks now.

Hi Anna,
Great to hear from you! Yes, we had a fantastic holiday. Mum, Dad and I went camping in Beidaihe. In fact, we stayed at the same campsite as we did ten years ago. Dad showed me a photo we had taken then — just see how time flies!
From: Penny
To: Anna
Subject: A family memory
Using language
Dad has changed quite a bit! In his thirties, he was quite thin and pale, and he had red bushy hair. Nowadays, he’s well-built and tanned. He’s always had a square jaw, but now he’s grown a beard. Strangely, his beard is still red even though his hair is turning grey!
Mum looks almost the same, though. She still has smooth skin and straight black hair, and jogging has kept her slim and fit.
Using language
I still have light skin and black hair, of course. But I usually wear my hair in a ponytail these days as it has got a lot longer. Mum says I had cute rosy cheeks, but now I have freckles. I think they are kind of cute too, right
Can’t wait to see you back in school!

I’m really sorry that…
Can you forgive me
Please forgive me for…
Please don’t be angry with me…
I didn’t mean to...
It’s OK.
It’s all right.

Let’s forget about it.

Using language
Now talk about how Alice’s mother makes an apology.
Work in pairs. Think about another situation in which you need to make an apology and have a similar conversation.
Learning to learn
Placing stress on particular words can have a big impact on the meaning and strength of apologies. For example. Saying “I am sorry” has more of an impact than “I’m sorry”. Another way of strengthening an apology is by using and stressing adverbs: I’m really sorry, I’m so sorry.
Using language
Act out the conversation to apologise to a family member.
Student A
You’re Student B’s son / daughter. Student B asked you to teach him / her how to use a new app to take photos. You started to help but soon became very impatient. Now, you feel sorry about your behaviour. Apologise to Student B and make up.
Using language
Student B
You’re Student A’s father / mother. You wanted to learn how to use a new photo-taking app, so you asked Student A for help. However, he / she was very impatient. Now Student A wants to apologise to you. Accept the apology and comfort him / her.
