TRUE STORIES – The School teacher
1 IT'S HAPPENED TO me half a dozen
times, lately. I'm walking home through the
Edinburgh Gardens and I see them heading
towards me. Heavy kids, eight of them, maybe
ten. I keep walking, but I keep my eyes on them,
and my feet wait for the sign to take off.
2 They are Greeks and Italians, all
adolescents, all wearing green or maroon
cardigans with a double black stripe round the
chest, Levis or Wranglers that fit just right,
showing a bit of sock and reddish shoes with big
heels. I move across to the outside of the
footpath to let them pass. They spread out a
little. They're close enough now in the almost-dark for me to see their faces.
3 And it's all right, because the front one is
Chris, from Fitzroy High, and he says, 'Hello,
miss!' and the others are kids who have grinned
and nodded at me a hundred times in the yard
at school.
4 I had taught migrants before, but Fitzroy
High is one of those legendary inner-suburban
schools which can no longer be properly
described as Australian. In none of the classes
I took were there more than four kids with
Australian names. A blond head was a surprise.
The administration battled to assimilate these
kids into recognizable moulds. In a hundred
subtle ways they were defeated.
5 Most of the girls had pierced ears and had
worn gold earrings since they were babies. The
line was that plain gold sleepers were the only
ear decorations allowed. At the time when it was
fashionable, in Australia, to wear a zillion
colored plastic bangles up your arm, teachers
strove hopelessly to prevent this display of
gaiety at school. The girls went on wearing them
and pulled their sleeves down when they saw a
senior mistress coming.
6 There were weekly segregated
assemblies. I don't know what they told the
boys, but at one girls' assembly I actually heard
the senior mistress say, 'As girls we must be
modest, quiet, hardworking and well-groomed
at all times'.
7 What astonished me was the stubbornness
of the kids' resistance to the rules. They didn't
organize or protest. They defied. If the pressure
got too much for them, they stayed away. And
yet they hated to be suspended. One boy was
suspended for a week, and every day I'd see
him leaning against my front fence, staring
wistfully at the school where his mates were
tight-roping their way dangerously through the
day.
8 In the three other schools I'd taught at, I'd
been an authoritarian, a good disciplinarian. It
wasn't only political or educational thinking that
changed my attitude at Fitzroy High. It was the
kids themselves. I suppose I fell in love with the
whole nine hundred of them. In other schools,
I'd known kids who were 'trouble-makers' or
'over-achievers', or ‘irresponsible' or 'antisocial. But somehow the kids at Fitzroy cut right
through those categories.
9 To begin with, they made me laugh. I can't
remember ever knowing such exuberant, merry
kids. Every class had more than its share of
natural clowns. The plays they invented were
full of hilarious delight. In a second-form class I
had for a year, two Italian boys called Claudio
and Joseph used to present weekly plays so
excruciatingly funny that we lay across the
desks aching and wiping our eyes.
10 A kid called Ilya wrote wonderful, magical
stories; he could write fairy tales his
grandparents had told him in Yugoslavia.
Lemonia could break your heart with a story
about a lost fountain pen, and Dora with an
account of her dreams. Their English may have
been rocky, but there was a pure, delicate
humour lying bone-deep in them that nothing
could corrupt.

of the kids' resistance to the rules. They didn't
organize or protest. They defied. If the pressure
got too much for them, they stayed away. And
yet they hated to be suspended. One boy was
suspended for a week, and every day I'd see
him leaning against my front fence, staring
wistfully at the school where his mates were
tight-roping their way dangerously through the
day.
8 In the three other schools I'd taught at, I'd
been an authoritarian, a good disciplinarian. It
wasn't only political or educational thinking that
changed my attitude at Fitzroy High. It was the
kids themselves. I suppose I fell in love with the
whole nine hundred of them. In other schools,
I'd known kids who were 'trouble-makers' or
'over-achievers', or ‘irresponsible' or 'antisocial. But somehow the kids at Fitzroy cut right
through those categories.
9 To begin with, they made me laugh. I can't
remember ever knowing such exuberant, merry
kids. Every class had more than its share of
natural clowns. The plays they invented were
full of hilarious delight. In a second-form class I
had for a year, two Italian boys called Claudio
and Joseph used to present weekly plays so
excruciatingly funny that we lay across the
desks aching and wiping our eyes.
10 A kid called Ilya wrote wonderful, magical
stories; he could write fairy tales his
grandparents had told him in Yugoslavia.
Lemonia could break your heart with a story
about a lost fountain pen, and Dora with an
account of her dreams. Their English may have
been rocky, but there was a pure, delicate
humour lying bone-deep in them that nothing
could corrupt.

TEXT 1
TRUE STORIES – The School teacher
1 IT'S HAPPENED TO me half a dozen
times, lately. I'm walking home through the
Edinburgh Gardens and I see them heading
towards me. Heavy kids, eight of them, maybe
ten. I keep walking, but I keep my eyes on them,
and my feet wait for the sign to take off.
2 They are Greeks and Italians, all
adolescents, all wearing green or maroon
cardigans with a double black stripe round the
chest, Levis or Wranglers that fit just right,
showing a bit of sock and reddish shoes with big
heels. I move across to the outside of the
footpath to let them pass. They spread out a
little. They're close enough now in the almost-dark for me to see their faces.
3 And it's all right, because the front one is
Chris, from Fitzroy High, and he says, 'Hello,
miss!' and the others are kids who have grinned
and nodded at me a hundred times in the yard
at school.
4 I had taught migrants before, but Fitzroy
High is one of those legendary inner-suburban
schools which can no longer be properly
described as Australian. In none of the classes
I took were there more than four kids with
Australian names. A blond head was a surprise.
The administration battled to assimilate these
kids into recognizable moulds. In a hundred
subtle ways they were defeated.
5 Most of the girls had pierced ears and had
worn gold earrings since they were babies. The
line was that plain gold sleepers were the only
ear decorations allowed. At the time when it was
fashionable, in Australia, to wear a zillion
colored plastic bangles up your arm, teachers
strove hopelessly to prevent this display of
gaiety at school. The girls went on wearing them
and pulled their sleeves down when they saw a
senior mistress coming.
6 There were weekly segregated
assemblies. I don't know what they told the
boys, but at one girls' assembly I actually heard
the senior mistress say, 'As girls we must be
modest, quiet, hardworking and well-groomed
at all times'.
7 What astonished me was the stubbornness
of the kids' resistance to the rules. They didn't
organize or protest. They defied. If the pressure
got too much for them, they stayed away. And
yet they hated to be suspended. One boy was
suspended for a week, and every day I'd see
him leaning against my front fence, staring
wistfully at the school where his mates were
tight-roping their way dangerously through the
day.
8 In the three other schools I'd taught at, I'd
been an authoritarian, a good disciplinarian. It
wasn't only political or educational thinking that
changed my attitude at Fitzroy High. It was the
kids themselves. I suppose I fell in love with the
whole nine hundred of them. In other schools,
I'd known kids who were 'trouble-makers' or
'over-achievers', or ‘irresponsible' or 'antisocial. But somehow the kids at Fitzroy cut right

Bermuda Triangle in the last 500 years, over
1000 ships and aircraft have entered the Bermuda
Triangle and mysteriously vanished. It is the deadliest
place on Earth for planes and boats. The Bermuda
Triangle is an area of water about 500,000 square miles
in size. One tip of the triangle starts from Miami, Florida
and extends northeast towards the island of Bermuda.
The next side of the triangle then runs straight south
towards the Puerto Rico and then turns back northeast
up to Florida.
The story of Flight 19 is one of the most
incredible cases of Bermuda Triangle disappearances. In
the early afternoon of December 5, 1945, five American
military aircraft with 14 men aboard departed from a
naval base in Florida on a training flight. These aircraft
were called Avengers, and they were among the
sturdiest and most reliable aircraft in the world at the
time. Commander Charles Taylor, an experienced pilot,
was supposed to lead the flight east from the Florida
coastline, which would take them into the Bermuda
Triangle. The sky was clear, and it was a perfect day for
flying but problems began about 90 minutes after
takeoff.
Taylor radioed back to his base at 3:40 p.m.
that he was lost, and his plane’s compass was not
working. This should not have been a problem as the
normal procedure for going home was to simply fly west
until they returned to the U.S. coast. the men of Flight
19, however, never returned home and the airplanes
seemed to have simply vanished. The final radio
messages from Flight 19 were very odd. One pilot
stated, “Everything looks strange. Even the ocean.”
Another one said, “It looks like we’re entering white
water. We’re completely lost.” A rescue plane flew into
the Bermuda Triangle to try and find the men, but it
crashed and all 13 men on board were killed. Later on, a
Navy official stated that Flight 19 “flew off to Mars.”
Flight 19’s disappearance is just one of many in
the long history of the Bermuda Triangle mystery. Is
there a scientific explanation for these disappearances
or are there supernatural forces at work in the area? The
number of unanswered questions about the fate of the
planes only adds to the mystery. Did Taylor, an
experienced pilot, really make a simple navigational
mistake? If so, why didn’t any of the other men in his
flight see the error and correct it? Why has the
wreckage of the planes and the men’s bodies never
been found after all these years? The US Navy
investigated the incident in 1946 and reported that the
Flight 19 incident was a “disappearance” with the
chilling words “cause unknown” added later on.
