My parents lived here when they were young, but my brother and I didnt know anyone
here except a few relatives wed met on visits. When I started school, one of my cousins,
Sophie, who was in my class, was very friendly for the first week and I was happy to have a
friend in a strange place. Then, for no reason, she stopped talking to me and I felt very hurt
and lonely for several weeks. In the end I made some more friends and since I got to know
them, Ive been fine. Now Sophie is having a disco party for her birthday next week and she
has invited me. I dont want to go. My brother says he heard someone say she only asked
me because her parents said she had to. But my Mum and Dad say it would be rude not to
accept. Some of my new friends are invited, too. How can I show Sophie that she cant
behave so badly towards me without causing a family quarrel?

5.Which of these is written in answer to James?
A Ask your friends to come with you and we can all have a good time together.
B Why not go to the party and ask Sophie why she stopped being friendly? At least
everyone will know whats happening.
