I was listening to BBC News. The most shocking news I have listened were two.
The first one was about a 39-year-old woman who gave birth before dying with swine flu.
The other one was about a football manager who was shot at least six times by a man who scaped in a bike.
Some phrases I understood were:
"A gunman jumped from the bushes and shot the football manager several time. He fired again to scare away the dying manager's players before fleeing"
"Where that happened is a very busy area, plenty people jogging, plenty people walking their dogs"
"Ryan will be remembered as a huge personality and as a great football man"

Co-incidence by Jungeun
When I came London, I stayed inn near to aldgate east station for 5days.
One day I saw one girl who was wearing flower printed shirt, blue skirt, red jacket, black fishnet stocking and green Dr. martin shoes passing by my room.
I thought “She looks like just came out from manga.” and I thoroughly forgot about her.
But after 1 week, I could meet her again in the classroom, when my first day of school.
I told her that I knew her already so we made up with each other so quickly, and we’re still keeping good relationships.

At the first day when I entered elementary school I met Ling. We were in the same class, at that time we both were 8-years old, and we were just normal friends. Half year late, Ling changed to another school, and we didn't contact any more. I think we would forget each other if we just stayed in our own schools.
Until 3 years later, I changed my school where I met him again, what's more, we were in the same class again. He told me he just changed to this school 2 weeks ago. What a coincidence! After that, our relationship began more and more good.
Now,we have known each other more than 20 years and Ling is my best friend.

A coincidence, by Matteo Riccardi
When I was a child and I played football, I took part with my team to the final of the championship. The match was against another local team, in which ......( his name was Emanuele Volpara) who was famous for being good at playing football: it was very hard work to mark him!
But the very strange thing is that about ten years later, in the same tournament, I found Emanuele again in a final match: both have changed team and now he was playing for an important italian football club, Genoa Fc, and was considered one of the best young players in Italy. But it wasn't very difficult to understand who he was: I recognized him as soon as he touched the ball.

The co-incidence - by Romina Arjolekas
The day before coming to London, I went to the central bank in my town to change some money to pounds.
I was queuing, when suddenly, the girl who was in front of me, in the same queue, looked at me and shouted my name.
I looked at her surprised and it took me a few seconds to realize that she was the sister of one of my friends in the high school who I hadn't seen since I left it behind, I mean, something like eight years ago!
My next surprise was that she was coming also to London, so we could meet here! It was very funny and surprising that so many years after, we had to drink a coffee in another town in another country.

My place, by Matteo Riccardi 13-7
When I arrived in London last saturday, I moved from Heathrow airport to my residence, which is in Bloomsbury, not so far from Russell Square.
It's a very peaceful area: in fact there are some parks such as Russell Square park or Coram's Fields and, above all, there isn't too much traffic and noise. There are also some interesting places to be visited: the house of the famous writer Charles Dickens and the British Museum. My residence is on the corner of Gray's Inn Road and Wren Street. I share my flat with other italian people coming from Naples, Turin and Rome and I ha ve a good relationship with them.
The flat has six bedrooms, two bathrooms and one kitchen in which I meet with my flatmates in the evening to have dinner.
Although my room is small, it has got all I need: there's a comfortable bed, a writing desk, a bedside table and a mirror above a washbasin. There's also a built-in wardrobe which includes a rack and in front of the writing desk an old armchair, on which I relax after a day's studying.

My place
These days I live in a host family in Walthmstow central. The family is originary from Carribeans island but the mother of the family was born in Great-Britain. She is the only one among her brothers ans sisters to be a native-speakers. She's the youngest one. She very nice to me and do delicious food. Sometimes I take my meals with the family which is nice. We can discuss of a lot of interesting subjects and it is the best way to improve my english after school. The house is a typical English house. In the street all houses are exactly the sames.
My room is a double room and is very shiny. I have a desk, a television and internet access on it. It is a pretty room. The house has a little garden and the neighbourhood seems to be friendly.
I like to live here but it a a little bit far from the school so I'm looking for an flat to share in the center of London, if you know anything someone who's looking for a roomate....
