Do you and your family still buy things with cash? If so, things could change in the future. Cash-free purchases, using contactless cards and mobile phones, are common in many countries. The top cashless societies in the world are Nordic countries. In Sweden you don’t even need cash in small shops or at market stalls– street vendors take payments via an app. In the UK over half of transactions are digital, although Germans still like paying in cash. A recent study shows that 20% of Europeans and Americans don’t use cash very often, and cash-free payments are also growing fast in Latin America. Not all people are happy, because they worry about security and privacy. Discuss the questions. • How do people buy things in your country? • Is cashless becoming more common? • What do you think are the advantages and disadvantages?

RANDOM FACT 22 THE INTERVIEW This week we meet Aaron Heath People and their jobs Real skills Where do you live? I live in Vancouver in Canada. Are you still at school? Yes, I’m in my last year of high school. What do you like doing in your free time? I like going to movies, playing sports, and hanging out with friends. What kind of music do you listen to? Different kinds. I often listen to pop. But I also like R & B. And I sometimes listen to hip hop. Do you have a part-time job? I’m a sales assistant in a shoe store. I work there on Saturdays. I spend my money on going out in the evening and on gadgets or clothes. What do you do in your job? Well, I do lots of different things in the store. I help the customers choose their shoes. They often ask me for advice! I often serve customers with children: I always measure the children’s feet and then help them choose their shoes. I don’t usually work at the till because the full-time assistants do that. Do you have a break in the day? Yes, I have a ten-minute break in the morning and I usually have a coffee. Then I have an hour’s break at one o’clock and I have lunch in town. What’s your ambition? Would you like to work as a sales assistant when you leave school? No, I wouldn’t. It’s OK for a part-time job, but I wouldn’t like to do it full-time. I think I’d like to be a science teacher. I love science and I love kids.

Elementary and Pre-Intermediate levels include optional Starter Book, so your class or individual students can speedily re-activate knowledge. Starter Book Curry Global Food What’s your favourite food? Do you know where it comes from? Every country has its own national recipes, but some dishes are popular around the world. Pasta Flatbread Ice cream Everybody loves pasta! It’s made from flour mixed with water and sometimes eggs. Today we think that pasta is Italian, but it probably first came to Europe from China. Different countries have their own form of pasta. In Japan people eat soba noodles in a thick soup. In many Japanese stations there are fast food noodle shops. Germany has got its own kind of pasta – spätzle – and you eat them with cheese or cabbage. What about you? How do you eat pasta? A curry is a meat or vegetable dish, cooked with a mixture of spices. India is the home of the curry and Indian curries include korma – a mild curry and biriani – rice with meat or vegetables. Curries in Thailand usually include coconut milk and Thai spices. The national dish of Cambodia is a curry called amok – spicy fish cooked in banana leaves. In the UK, there’s a British version of curry called chicken tikka massala – pieces of grilled chicken in a spicy tomato sauce. It’s one of the most popular takeaway dishes in the UK. Flatbread is a very simple form of bread that is common all around the world. People eat flatbread with meat or they roll them up to make a type of sandwich. Australians make a form of flatbread called damper when they are camping in the outback. They cook it on a fire and eat it with sugar and water. Do you like spicy food? Then try roti or chapati from South Asia with green chillies. In Greece and Turkey, pitta is very popular. A warm pitta filled with salad and hummus is delicious. 154 Interculture Units 11&12 FRPLUS_141-155_OK ICONS.indd 154 08/10/18 11:37 Global Culture Up-to-date, global and Englishspeaking themes are presented with a focus on young people.
