For two weeks, hundreds of acrobats, comedians, dancers and musicians from all round the world come to perform in one of the country’s main cities. They mostly perform in the streets. Why? Because this is The World Buskers Festival. A busker is anyone who performs an act for free in the street. But people only give what they think the act was worth. And buskers don’t expect more than a few coins from each person. The World Buskers Festival is a great opportunity to see some of the world’s best street performers. Visitors can watch magic acts in the streets and in the main square they can laugh at top comedy acts. In the park, they can see acrobats performing incredible feats high up in the trees! At night, performances continue to take place in the city’s art galleries and theatres. When the festival began in 1994, only a few buskers came to the city, and crowds were small. For the most popular acts, visitors need to arrive early to get a good view. One act that always draws a big crowd is New Zealand’s Fuse Circus, a team of some of the country’s best circus performers. Together, they put on an incredible acrobatic show! Another top act is a young comedian called Sam Wills. There are also big audiences for Maui, a group who perform traditional Maori dances. With over 500 different performances taking place around the city, any visitor to this fantastic, free festival, is sure to find something they like! 1 2 3 4 5 Starlight 6 WB Revisions_Starlight 6 WB Revisions 12/12/2012 7:36 Page 1 REV

We have four rooms in our house. But my favourite one is our study which is the biggest room. It is full of wonderful things: books, pictures, collections of coins, a video and computer. There is a very old writing table in the study. My great granddad bought it in the beginning of the century when he was a student. It is very old, solid and comfortable. There is a sofa in the corner of the room and next to it a beautiful old standard lamp, which is on the carpet. I clean the carpet with the vacuum cleaner very often. There is a piano near the window. At night when it gets dark I like to turn off the light, turn on the standard lamp and play the piano. When the standard lamp is on, the study looks like a fairy-land. I often sit in the old armchair and dream of pleasant things. I love this room very much. But my brother likes our living-room. He has got a very good stereo system there. He plays his music very loudly in this room. This room is not very comfortable. There is a fireplace in it, but nevertheless it’s a little cold in winter. There is also an armchair, a sofa and some shelves with compact discs and cassettes in them. My brother spends much time in this room. Моя любимая комната У нас есть четыре комнаты в нашем доме. Но моя любимая- кабинет, который является самой большой комнатой в доме. Он полон удивительных вещей: книг, картин, коллекций монет, видео и компьютером. В кабинете существует очень старый письменный стол. Мой прадед купил его в начале века, когда он был студентом. Он очень старый, прочный и комфортный. В углу комнаты- диван, а рядом красивый старый торшер, который находится на ковре. Я чищу ковер пылесосом очень часто. У окна- фортепиано. Ночью, когда стемнеет, я люблю выключить свет, включить торшер и играть на пианино. При свете торшера кабинет выглядит сказочной страной. Я часто сижу в старом кресле и мечтаю о приятных вещах. Я очень люблю эту комнату. Но мой брат любит нашу гостинную. У него там очень хорошая стереосистема. Он влючает свою музыку очень громко. Эта комната не очень уютная. Здесь есть камин, но, тем не менее, тут немного холодной зимой. Существует также кресло, диван и несколько полок с компакт-дисками и кассетами на них. Мой брат проводит много времени в этой комнате.
