The Ministry of Education aims at providing Ecuadors students with both the foreign language knowledge and the skills needed to succeed in todays globalized world as English is the international language that will allow them to access knowledge and information and that will become an instrument of personal and professional empowerment to build a more prosperous, equitable society. For the rst time, the Ministry of Education will provide free English textbooks to students. This will contribute to the learning process in a positive manner, for every student will have an additional resource to aid them in their language acquisition process. These textbooks as well as the teaching-learning approach adopted are guided by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages: Learning, Teaching, Assessment, which is an internationally recognized standard for the explicit description of educational objectives, content elaboration, and methods as well as a basis for the re ection on current educational practices. Since the communicative language approach will shape the teaching and learning practices in Ecuadorian classrooms, both teachers and learners are enthusiastically invited to make use of the English language for meaningful communication and as a tool to open windows to the world, unlock doors to opportunities, and expand their minds to the understanding of new ideas and other cultures.

73

Read the article as you listen.

Todays parents are worried. Their children and their iPods are inseparable. Wherever they go, teenagers listen to music on their iPods. The problem is not the iPods but the kinds of music teenagers listen to. Most teenagers are into rap and other kinds of hip-hop music. Why is this a problem? Listen to the lyrics of many rap songs. Theyre often about drugs, sex, and violence. But does music influence young peoples behavior? For example, do teenagers who listen to rap songs about violence become violent? Do those who listen to rock, heavy metal, and rap become drug users? There are many different opinions. Some say

singers and their songs affect the behavior of young people. They say that music with violent lyrics is the reason some young people commit crimes, and some teenagers do drugs because their favorite singers do the same thing. The singers say it is ridiculous to blame them and their songs for what teenagers choose to do. They say it is the responsibility of parents to raise their kids well. Singers are not babysitters. In one of his raps, Eminem asks, Where were the parents at? In other words, Eminem is blaming the parents, not the singers or their songs, when kids go wrong. The debate continues. What about you? Do you think todays music is bad for you?

Japan
As in many other countries, Japanese kids eat cake and open presents on their birthdays. And for young children, there is a special celebration in February called the 3-5-7 Festival. This is for boys aged 3 and 5, and girls aged 3 and 7. Children wear traditional clothes on this day. They eat special sweets called thousand-year candies so they will live a long life. The twentieth birthday is also important in Japan. This is when Japanese teenagers become adults. Each city has a special event for all 20-year-olds in January.

Mexico
At birthday parties in Mexico, kids break piatas. Piatas are made of paper and have candy and fruit inside. The birthday boy or girl puts on a blindfold and tries to hit the piata with a stick. When the piata breaks, the other kids run to pick up the candy. On their fteenth birthday, Mexican girls are called Quinceaeras. They have a big, expensive party with dinner, music, and dancing. The birthday girl wears a beautiful dress and jewelry. She dances rst with different young men, then with her father and other relatives.

Vietnam
In Vietnam, everybody celebrates his or her birthday on the same dayNew Years Day. It doesnt matter what day you were born. On New Years Day, everyone is one year older. Everyone wears new clothes, and there are reworks and parades. Young people get red envelopes from their parents and other adults. Inside the envelopes is lucky money. At the end of the day, young people open the envelopes and count their money!

I am from New York City and I love it. Its exciting because there is so much to do! I live in an apartment in Manhattan with my mom and dad. I have two sisters. They are both married. They also live in New York City. They visit us on Sundays, and we have dinner together. Then we watch our favorite TV show. Im a student at a local high school. My favorite subject is math. I also like music. Im in a rap group called Urban Dwellers. We practice every afternoon after school. We rap about things that happen around us, about things we see in the street, or about things that annoy us. My ambition is to become a math teacher or a famous musician.

I live in Marwood, a village in Devon, Great Britain. It doesnt have any stores, and it is a boring place. I never go out at night because there is 5 nothing to do! I have one sister. Shes nineteen, and shes a college student. My parents are divorced. My sister and I live with our mom. I have lots of friends, but they dont live in Marwood. 10 They live far away from us. I have a motorcycle, and I ride it in the country on weekends. I cant ride it on the road because I am only fifteen years old. 15 I go to high school. I study a lot of things, but my favorite subject is art. One day I want to work in a museum.
