2) An Unusual Way Out
3) Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardy

a) “Saratoga Chocolates” is a tiny store surrounded by antique shops and upscale restaurants in the small town of Saratoga, 45 miles south of San Francisco. It is also a place where you can learn to make truffles from scratch. Mary Loomas is a chocolatier. She took up chocolate making as a hobby several years ago. Then she had a three-month class and then a week of intensive study in France. As soon as Mary returned home she started writing a business plan. “Saratoga Chocolates” opened its doors in November 2005. From Thanksgiving to Valentine’s Day Mary and her five employees concentrate on candy which sells well. The rest of the year she also teaches classes for as many people as six at a time.
b) At this school there are a lot of courses. They include the history of Christmas and New Year, the reindeer names, costume making, make-up workshops and most importantly, the toys that will be top of the wish-list this year. The school is over at the end of autumn and then the school-leavers are ready to take on duties at grottos and stores in the period of time before Christmas. Such schools exist all over the world.
c) It is the second best public school in the UK after Eton. It was founded as a public school for the children of poor farmers in the 16th century but rapidly became one of the most prestigious private schools in the country. Famous Old Harrovians include Winston Churchill and Lord Byron. The school has excellent reputation. The fact that you are an ex-Harrovian is some kind of passport for a brighter future. The school has outstanding facilities including the best golf courses and a swimming pool.
d) In my school when teachers were ill or absent the Head Teacher used to call in a supply or a temporary teacher. They were not good enough. They just came in and sat there. In fact they were not teaching. They were babysitting. So my Head Teacher decided to employ her sixth-formers. They teach the younger pupils. The school trains the students how to control a class and to prepare lessons. The students earn 5 pounds for each 50-minute lesson and they are fantastic. They know a lot about their subjects and they have positive attitudes. The children love it.
e) At the school they had to study the night skies through their telescopes every Wednesday at midnight and learn the names of different stars and the movements of the planets. Three times a week they went out to the greenhouse behind the castle to study Hebrology, with an elderly little witch called Professor Sprout. The most boring lesson was History of Magic, which was the only class taught by a ghost. The pupils very soon found out that their classes were more difficult than waving one’s wand and saying a few funny words.
f) Morning registration at Hampton School begins at 8.50 a.m. There are five lessons each morning, with a 20-minute break after the first three. Lunch-break is from 12.35 to 2 p.m. Last lesson finishes at 4 p.m. but the boys can work in the library till 5 p. m. There are no lessons on Saturday. But on a typical Saturday there could be as many as 3,000 boys and 30 staff members involved in sport, drama, etc.
