Flying sounds A few animals can fly.Their wings make different sounds. Some birds make loud sounds. Some birds make soft sounds. Some insects make annoying sounds. Some make no sounds. “Why don’t you make loud sounds with your wings, Butterfly?” Monkey asked. “Because I move my wings slowly,” Butterfly said proudly. That’s too loud. What’s that? Just wait and see ! Iam learning to fly.

My day in the rainfoest I am walking in the rainforest I wonder what I’ll find Oh no, it is a tiger and a bear I am going to hide I’ll hide behind this tree Here they CANNOT see me ! Oh no, it is a snake and a monkey ! This place is NOT safe for me ! I’m running in the rainforest To my treehouse, I go This place is safe for me ! “You forgot your hat and shoes.”

Unit 4 WORK Track 30 1 Hi. I’m Adam. I’m your Student Union representative and I’m here to tell you about student societies. 2 Good morning everyone. For the last two weeks, we’ve been looking at employment opportunities in industry, and in today’s lecture I’ll be talking about working in a large corporation. 3 Hello. My name’s Annie and I’m the university careers officer. Today I’ m going to talk about working outdoors. 4 Is everyone ready? OK? Remember last week we discussed work in private industry. Well, this week’s talk will cover employment opportunities in institutions of further education. 5 Good afternoon. Thank you for inviting me to talk to you. I’m Angus McDonald. I’m a police officer and my topic today is job satisfaction. 6 Good evening. It’s good to see so many people here this cold night. OK ... My lecture this evening will be about finding a job. Track 31 1:33 1 Hi. My name’s Adam. I’m your Student Union rep, and this evening I'm going to talk about the different clubs you can join here at the university. 2 Hello. Thank you all for coming, today. For the last couple of weeks, we've been discussing how to get a job in private industry, and today’s lecture is about working in a small company. 3 Hello. My name's Annie and I’m the university careers officer. I’ve come in this evening to tell you about jobs that involve spending a lot of time outside. 4 Good evening, everyone. Right... last week we talked about working in private education. Well, this week’s talk will cover employment in universities. 5 Good afternoon. Thank you for inviting me to talk to you. I'm Angus McDonald. I’m a police officer and today I’ll be talking about job fulfillment. 6 Good evening. Thank you for inviting me to talk to you. My topic for this evening will be how to find employment. I hope you’ll find it useful. Track 32 3:06 My name’s Alice and I work on a farm in the south east of England. Mostly, we grow fruit, but we also keep chickens, ducks and dairy cows. So, we have to work outside quite a lot, even in the winter, when it’s cold and dark. That’s the worst part of the job, really. You know, having to go out in the rain and snow to feed the animals. But the summer's to tally different. I really enioy being outdoors, helping the fruit pickers and loading the trucks. We deliver most of our fruits to supermarkets, but we also supply local shops with our milk, eggs and cheese. In fact, we produce so much cheese and fruit that we even sell them directly to the public in our farm shop. Track 33 4:00 I’m Wei Long, but my American friends call me Will. I’m a businessman in California. Before I came to the United States, I studied at a university in China. I graduated in information technology. But when I was young, even before I went to university, I worked in the family business. So my ambition has always been to earn a living through trade. After I graduated, I worked for my father for a few years to get some experience and then I started my own small company. First I set up an office in China, and then I opened another office in California. We sell computer parts from China, because I know a lot of people in the computer industry there. I don’t have any salesmen, but I have a receptionist to look after the office while I’m out on sales trips. I like being my own boss ... I enjoy being able to make all the decisions myself. I mean, I sell most of my goods to large corporations and I think I'd find it very difficult to work in a big company. Track 34 5:12 My name’s Khalidah. I’m a doctor in a busy hospital in London. My job is quite stressful because I work in the Accident and Emergency unit. Our hospital is the only one in the area with an A & E. So, all the urgent cases come to us. Mostly we see people who have been in car crashes or had an accident at home. When people arrive at the unit, I have to see them first. I examine them to find out what's wrong and make sure we give them the right treatment. When we’re sure the patients aren’t in any serious danger, the nurses put all the information in their personal records and find them a bed if they're starving in hospital, or arrange for them to go home if they don’t need to stay. Track 35 6:08 Hello, everyone. Thank you for inviting me to give a talk in this series of employment lectures. I’m here this evening to tell you about my job. I’m going to tell you what I like about it, what I don’t like about it and what I hope to do in the future. OK ... Well, I’m a police officer. I've been in the police for just over five years and part of my job is to give talks to students about police work. People often ask why I joined the police. So maybe I’ll start there ...I’ve always been interested in law and order, so I went to study law at university. But ... mmm ... when I got there I realized that I was more interested in the practical side of law than the theory. So, I applied to work with the police force in my spare time. Then, as soon as I graduated, I was accepted for training. Track 36 7:49 As you know, our job is to protect the public from crime in a island defend the law. So, obviously, the police force has to work every day o f the week, day and night. This means we're often at work when everyone else is relaxing with friends and family, and we can’t always be around for special occasions, like birthdays and New Year’s Eve. On top of that we have a lot of extra work at weekends, especially when there's a football match and the fans are out celebrating. So our working hours are one disadvantage of police work. A lot of the time we have to work with the public to avoid problems, and we get special training for that. But we can’t always prevent trouble , so another disadvantage of the job is the danger... I mean, we know that some of the people we have to rest will attack us. Track 37 9:05 Now for the advantages ... Well, one of the advantages is that police work is well-paid. As I’ve said, it’s a difficult job, and police officers work hard for their pay. But there are many more advantages ... for example, sometimes the work’s fun, especially when we have to protect famous people from their own fans! I’ve met quite a lot of celebrities in my job and I must say I enjoy seeing them close up and finding out that they’re really like as people. But, for me the biggest advantage is the job satisfaction. Speaking for myself, would say I get the most job satisfaction when I help someone or solve a problem in a community. And in the future, I’d like to train to be a detective. I think I’d be good at that.

Unit 3: Presentations Track 19 introduce presentation suggest project inform explain introduction present (v) present (n) suggestion projector information explanation Track 20 1:00 Farouk: So, who’s going to do the introduction? Edward: Well, I suggest you present the first part, Farouk. You’ve done a lot of work on this project, after all. Farouk: Well, OK. I’ll start. But you’ve got a lot of information, too. I think you should explain the next two slides. Track 21 1:27 Beth: OK, everyone. The first thing we have to decide is our topic. I mean, what exactly are we going to talk about? Edward: We know the course is Art History and the subject is Italian painting, but that's still too big. We have to choose a particular topic. What do you think, Mandy? Mandy: I think we should concentrate on a single painter. Edward: But, on the other hand, if we discuss more than one artist, it’ll be easier to make comparisons and show the differences between them. Farouk:That's a good idea, Edward. It’ll give us more to discuss. Mandy: Right. So the next thing is to decide which artists to look at. I think we should definitely include Michelangelo. You know he painted the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Rome. He’s very famous ... and what about Leonardo da Vinci. They were both great painters. What do you think Beth? Beth: They’re OK, I suppose. But don’t you think everyone else will choose them? How about Botticelli? His painting is very different from the other two. Farouk: I agree with Beth. Why don’t we have Michelangelo and Botticelli? Edward: I’m happy with that. Everyone else OK with it? Track 22 2:53 Edward: Right, guys. Let’s have a look at what we’re going to put in the slides. The first slide’s going to be the introduction, isn't it? So, I guess it should have a title. How about ‘Michelangelo and Botticelli: a comparison’? Mandy: Yeah... So we’ve got the title. Don’t you think we should make a list of bullet points for each of the slides in the presentation? Farouk: Oh, yes ... definitely. How many slides do we have to do? Edward: Well, the presentation’s ten minutes long, so we should probably have a maximum of six slides ... Remember that Beth’s already got two slides about Botticelli. Mandy: Well, why don’t we do two slides each ... that’d be eight, including the introduction and the conclusion? Edward: That sounds fair enough. Let’s do that. So who’s going to do the rest of the slides? Farouk: I can start off with the introduction. And then. I could do the conclusion and the summary at the end. What do you think? Mandy: Great. I'd like to talk about Michelangelo's paintings. I’ve done quite a lot of reading about them. Edward: Fine. So I could do a couple of slides showing how Michelangelo and Botticelli are similar and how they’re different. Track 23 4:19 Beth: We want the presentation to look as if it’s been made by a team, don't we, Edward? I think we should have a one design for all the slides. Do you agree? Edward:Oh, yes, of course. We don’t want a different color for each slide. Shall we design a slide now for the rest of the group to use? Beth: Yes, let’s do that. Let’s have a look ... This slide has the program icon on the title box. Shall we keep it there? Edward: No, I don't think so. It hasn't got anything to do with the presentation. Let’s take that off. Beth: Fine. And I think we should keep the blue bullet points. They match the light blue title box. What do you think about putting images in each slide? Edward: Oh, absolutely. I think we should put at least one image on each slide. Beth: Good. We’re agreed, then. Let's send this slide to the others, shall we? Track 24 5:18 Farouk: OK, everyone. I’ve put all our slides together so we can see if we’re happy with the presentation. I think we need to check that we all agree with the order... there’s nothing to decide about my slides, the introduction and the conclusion. Obviously, one of my slides goes at the beginning and the other one at the end. Edward’s slide, comparing the two artists, will have to go after Beth’s and Mandy’s. What we need to decide is which artist should go first. Michelangelo or Botticelli. Mandy: Well, Michelangelo is more famous than Botticelli, isn’t he? I mean everyone’s heard of him. Maybe he should go first. What do you think, Beth? Beth: Umm ... I’m not sure that just being famous is a good reason to put him first. Edward: OK, so isn’t it sensible to put the artist who was born earlier first? Who was that? When was Michelangelo born? Mandy: In 1475. Edward: And Botticelli? Beth:In 1445. Edward: So, let's put Botticelli first, and follow with Michelangelo. Track 25 6:35 Tutor: Good morning everyone. So, you’re going to tell me about your presentation. First of all, what’s your topic? Did you say you were going to talk about the uses of mobile phones? Laila: Err ... Not exactly. We’re actually goingto explain the dangers of using mobile phones. Tutor: Ahhh... OK... that sounds interesting. What are you going to discuss exactly? Anne-Marie: Well, we’ve planned to divide the presentation into three sections. We’ll have an introduction, explaining why we think it’s important to understand the dangers of mobiles. Then on the second slide, we’ll have a list of the different types of danger and then on the last slide we’re going to suggest ways of staying out of danger when you use a mobile. Harry: Yes, we want to start by telling the audience that using a mobile phone can be dangerous and then go into more detail in the next part. Tutor: OK ... but before you talk about the dangers of mobile phones, I think you should mention the advantages. You could put that in your introduction. It balances up the argument a bit. Harry: Oh.... yes, I see what you mean. Right... We’ll do that. Track 26 8:37 Tutor: So, shall we have a look at your presentation? Did you bring it with you? Anne-Marie: I’ve got it here on a memory stick. Can we show you on your computer? Tutor: Yes, that’s fine. Let’s have a look. Mmm ... Right, as you say, you’re going to add the advantages of using mobile phones to the first slide. Good. Who’s going to explain the second slide with all the dangers? Laila: That’s me. Do you think I’ve got enough detail? Tutor: Yes. I think there’s plenty of information,but I think it’s all a bit mixed up at the moment. I mean, you've got dangers like getting headaches in the same list as having car accidents and being robbed in the street. They’re all different types of danger, aren’t they? I think you should divide them into groups. Maybe under separate titles, like Health. Accidents and Security. Laila: Oh, right. Yes, thank you. That’ll make it much clearer to the audience ... Tutor: Mmm ... OK. Now, in the third slide you can put your suggestions for staying away from each of these dangers under separate titles. Track 27 10:15 Tutor: Have you got any other questions? Harry: Ummm.... yes. The presentation should be for 10 minutes, is that right? Tutor: Yes. But ten minutes in total, including three minutes for questions. So you’ll only talk for seven minutes. Anne-Marie: That’s only two minutes each! We won’t be able to say much in that time, at all! Tutor: That’s why you have to plan what you’re going to say carefully and make sure you only include the most important information. For instance, you won’t have time to give examples. But you could put some images on your slides that show examples, without spending time talking about them. Laila: Hey, that’s a good idea. And the audience can look at them while we talk. Tutor: And another thing ... make sure all the slides have the same style. You should get together and agree on one style for the whole presentation. Harry: OK, we’ll do that too. Thanks a lot for your help.

Unit 2: Food and cooking Track 11 Here are the ingredients for our special apple cake. You need 500 grams, that’s half a kilo of apples, two hundred and fifty grams of sugar - that’s a quarter of a kilo - and 330 grams, or a third of a kilo, of flour. You also need 200 grams of butter, that’s a fifth of a kilo of butter. And finally the milk. You need a fifth of a litre of milk or. if vou prefer, that’s 200 millilitres. Track 12 OK everyone, could you all pay attention now? Tomorrow we're going to make a popular Caribbean dish, urn ... chicken and rice. Recipes vary from country to country, but for the moment I'm going to give you the list of ingredients for the basic recipe and leave you to add the flavours and spices to your own taste. Right, are you ready to write this down? OK... First of all, you need a chicken that weighs about 2 kilos. Then, for four people, you’ll need 750 grams of uncooked rice. OK? For the sauce, you want V2 a kilo of onions ... Umm and tomatoes, you’ll need 450 grams of tomatoes and ... ah ... and what else? Oh, yes, and green peppers you want V* kilo of green peppers and, finally, 50 millilitres of cooking oil. Have you all got that? Good. See you tomorrow, then. Don't forget to bring your favourite spices. Track 13 Hi, and welcome to ‘Campus Cook-in’, our daily TV programme for students who want a bit of variety in their meals. Are you bored with cereal for breakfast? Well, today, we’re going to tell you how to make pancakes. They're cheap and quick and very easy to make. You only need flour, milk, sugar, salt, oil and an egg. The full recipe's on the university website - just follow the link. So, here we go ... Before you start, it’s important to have the exact quantities, otherwise your pancakes won’t cook properly. So please make sure vou weigh everything carefully. Everyone ready? OK. First you put the flour, salt and sugar in a large bowl. Next, you mix the egg, milk and oil in another bowl. Then, slowly add the liquid ingredients to the flour mixture, mixing well until it has a smooth, thick consistency. Make sure you stir all the time. OK? Now we’re ready to cook our pancakes. We start by heating the frying pan and greasing it lightly with a little butter. When the butter’s melted, we pour a large spoonful of the pancake mix into the pan and cook it until the edges are brown. At that point, flip the pancake over and cook for a minute or so longer. Finally, put the pancake on a plate and cover it up to keep warm, and make the next one. When all vour pancakes are ready, vou can serve them up with svrup or sugar and lemon, or even fruit. Delicious! Happy Eating! Track 14 Good morning, everyone. Today we’re going to make Apple and Blackberry Crumble. So, I hope you’ve all bought your ingredients. Ready? Now, let’s get straight on with cooking. First, you peel the apples, and cut them into slices. OK? Don’t forget to take the middle out of the apple. Now, put the sliced apples in a pan and cook them with some of the sugar. In about 10 minutes they should be nice and soft. Right? Now, mix the blackberries and apple together and put them into the bottom of a baking dish. That’s fine ... Now, the next thing to do is rub the flour, sugar and butter together with your fingers until it’s in tiny pieces, like breadcrumbs. When it’s ready, put it on the top of the apples and bake it all in the oven for 30 minutes. Track 15 Hello everyone. Welcome to the university. I hope you’re settling in and beginning to find your way around. I know a lot of students find it hard to adapt to the food. So I thought I’d tell you about a couple of popular English meals that you might hear about. Well, actually, you might’ve heard of the first one already... it’s really popular ... it's fish and chips. Fish and chips are fried in deep fat. So it’s actually very greasy and not at all healthy. But it’s still very popular, especially on a Friday night. That’s when a lot of people get their fish and chips from the ‘fish and chip’ shop, and take them home to eat. The other traditional meal, which is definitely healthier, is Sunday lunch. In England, Sunday lunch is usually some kind of roast meat with vegetables. Traditionally, families have their Sunday lunch at home, but these days quite a lot of families have Sunday lunch in a restaurant. Track 16 Good afternoon. Many people in the western world eat the wrong food and they eat far too much of it. So the topic of my lecture today is healthy eating. I’ll divide my talk into three parts; firstly, I’m going to define what I mean by healthy eating. After that, I’ll go on to talk about why people don’t eat properly and then I’ll finish my lecture with some ideas for improving the situation. Right ... So what do I mean by ‘healthy eating’? Well, some people might think it means eating a lot of meat. Ummm... of course, vegetarians wouldn’t agree with this. They think eating meat is very unhealthy. Other people think that eating a lot of cabbage is good for you, or a lot of salad. Well, naturally, cabbage, salad and meat can all be part of healthy eating. But, for me, a healthy eating means two things: one is... eating a balanced diet and the other is... eating the right amount of food. In my opinion, a balanced diet means eating a variety of foods, including meat, vegetables, fruit, cereals and dairy foods. Obviously, the amount of food we should eat is more difficult to decide. It depends a lot on how active we are. Track 17 Now on to my next point ... Why do so many people eat badly? Well, let’s look first at having a balanced diet. To have a balanced diet you have to plan your meals in advance and then buy the right food... and then take time to cook it properly. But, these days people are so busy working that they don't have time to go shopping, so they end up buying fast food at the last minute. Another reason people don’t eat well nowadays is that it’s actually cheaper to buy food already prepared in a packet. So, people who haven’t got much money, will buy packet food rather than cook something fresh. And a final reason why people don’t eat healthily ... and that is that they don't know how to. In my opinion, schools don’t do nearly enough to educate their pupils in healthy eating habits. Track 18 And now to my third and last point ... What can we do to solve the problem? Well, I think it can be solved by three main groups: families, schools and the government. To start with, parents should make sure their children have a healthy diet. Secondly, a lot of schools have self-service machines, where their pupils can buy soft drinks, crisps, sweets and chocolates. I think schools should change what they sell in these machines. Another thing schools can do is make sure that the food they serve in their canteens is fresh and well balanced. And to finish, I’ll briefly mention two of the measures I think the government should take to encourage healthy eating. One is to limit advertising unhealthy food and the other is to spend more money on educating the public about the benefits of a healthy diet. In my next lecture, I’ll go into more detail about...

Section 3 Questions 21-23 Track 46 Tutor: So what’s the survey about, Tom? Tom: It’s about where students want to live and how they choose. Basically, their accommodation preferences. We’ve actually tried it out with a few students, already. Tutor: OK. That sounds fine. So to start with, how many questions have you got? Monica: Mmmm ... 20? Is that too many? Tutor: Yes, it is, really. People get fed up answering lots of questions and they stop thinking about their answers. Monica: Right, so we need to think about that again. What do you think of the first three questions? Tutor: Ahmmm ... You want to know what affects students’ choice of accommodation when they go to university. Monica: Yes. We want to find out which has the most effect: the cost, the number of rooms in the house or flat, or the distance from campus. Tom: And then we asked another question. Tutor: Oh, yes. What else did you want to find out? Tom: Well, we wondered whether public transport was important. You know, not many students have cars. So it might be quite important for them to be near somewhere where they could catch a bus or train. Tutor: Yeah, that’s a good question. Questions 24-26 Track 47 Tutor: Before you ask any more people, I've got a couple of suggestions for improving the questionnaire. First of all, I think you need to ask fewer questions. As I said, 20 is really too many. I’d cut it down to 10, if I were you. Monica: OK, 10 questions only. And is there anything else you think we should do? Tutor: Well, yes. Some of the questions are actually quite complicated. I think you should make them clearer. I mean, I think they should be easier to understand. Monica: And, what do you think about askingmore questions about cost? Tutor: No. I don’t think you need any more about cost. But you could ask a couple more questions about the reasons for students’ decisions. Monica: So we should ask some more questions with ‘why?’ Tutor: Yes. I think you’d get quite a lot more information if you did that. Tom: Thank you. Questions 27-30 Track 48 Tom: Ummm... we’ve already got some results from our first questionnaire. Do you think we could use them? Tutor: I don’t see why not. What have you found out so far? Tom: Well, the number of rooms was only important for 16% of the people we asked. It looks like a lot of students are quite happy to share a room. And even fewer people were concerned about being near a bus stop, only 10%, in fact. Tutor: I'm surprised about that. But what about the distance from the university? Tom: Well, that was quite important. Around 20% of the students we asked wanted to be close to campus. Tutor: Mmmm ... that makes sense. And what about the cost? Tom: Yeah, as we expected, the cost was by far the most important factor. More than half the students were concerned with the cost - 54% to be exact. Tutor: Only 54%? ... I thought it’d be closer to 80%! Section 4 Questions 31-34 Track 49 My lecture this evening will focus on the migration of birds. That is, how birds fly in big groups from different parts of the world at certain times of the year. In the first part of the lecture I’ll talk about the reasons why birds migrate, when they migrate and which parts of the world they migrate from and to. To start with, why do birds migrate? Well, there are two main reasons: One, they migrate to look for food and two, they travel to parts of the world that are more suitable for breeding. In fact, these reasons are closely linked. As you can imagine, when birds are breeding, they need extra food to feed their voune. And, in the spring, in the cooler climates of Europe, there is a lot of food for birds, especially insects. So, generally, during the spring, birds fly up from the tropics, which are hot, to cooler climates in the north. They stay there for a few months to bring up their young. And then when the weather in the north gets cold in the winter, they fly back to warmer climates in the south. Questions 35-37 Track 50 Now I'd like to talk a bit about how global warming has affected bird migration. One of the effects of global warming has been to make the spring come earlier in the northern regions of the world. When spring comes early, the plants and insects that birds need to bring up their young are also available earlier. Research has shown that quite a lot of birds have started to migrate earlier, because of higher temperatures. But, unfortunately for some species, this hasn’t been early enough. What I’m saying is that birds that are travelling a long way for breeding may arrive too late to find enough food to feed their young and their population drops drastically. Scientists are currently researching more about this. Questions 38-40 Track 51 Now, I thought I’d finish by just briefly describing a few different patterns of migration. Ahhh ... migration varies with the type of bird and the area they come from. For example, one kind of migration is ‘partial’ migration. This means that some birds in a particular species will migrate and others won’t. It usually depends on how the weather affects food supplies and very often happens in the tropics. In another migratory pattern, a bird called an Arctic Tern migrates the whole length of the globe, from the north pole to the south. The Arctic Tern travels between twelve and fifteen thousand kilometres each way when it migrates in a complete circle around the world. It’s quite amazing! Right ... and, lastly, I'd like to mention a pattern which isn’t nearly as spectacular, but is very interesting. And this is the way many birds migrate across North America. In this pattern the birds fly northwards in the west of the country and then back south again in the east. So, if you imagine it, they’re actually migrating in a circular pattern, like the hands of a clock, not in a straight line, as we might think.

Practice test Section 1 Questions 1-3 Track 40 Travel Agent: Hello, Travel Wide, can I help you? William: Oh, yes. Good morning. I’m looking for a hotel for a long weekend. Travel Agent: OK. First of all, ummm ... Where would you like to stay? I mean, are you looking for a peaceful weekend in the country, a busy city break or a relaxing time at the beach? William: Well. I certainly want a quiet weekend. I work very hard, so I’d like to relax for a few days. Travel Agent: Right ... So, it would be country or beach. Which would you prefer? William: Mmmm ... the beach is very relaxing,but I think I’d rather go to the country this time. Travel Agent: OK. That’s fine. Let me have a look at country hotels. Would you like to stay at a spa hotel, where you could swim, read, eat healthy food and have relaxing treatments? Or would you prefer a family hotel on a farm? William: Ahh ... I must say I like the idea of a spa. Travel Agent: Well, that’s great! Now, let’s just look at our spa hotels. Mmmm ... You definitely don’t want the beach? William: No. I’d like to go somewhere in the countryside. Somewhere where I can go for walks. Travel Agent: OK ... then it won’t be the Ocean Waves Resort. Farmhouse Getaways is a family run hotel in the country, but it’s not a spa. How does Sparkling Springs sound? It’s a luxury spa hotel in the countryside, with an indoor heated pool, and views over the fields and woods nearby. William: That sounds exactly what I’m looking for. Let’s go for that. Travel Agent: Excellent. Questions 4 - 7 Track 41 Travel Agent: Now, if I can take some details, I can make the booking for you. Could I have your full name, please. William: Yup ... my name’s William French. Travel Agent: William French ... and your address? William: Number 4 The Willows, Standmarch, Norfolk, NE1 4SP Travel Agent: The Willows. Sorry, how do you spell that? William: W-l-L-L-O-W-S. The Willows. Travel Agent: Thank you. And can I have a contact number for you? William: Yes. My mobile’s probably the best one. It’s 07632 112254. Travel Agent: 07632 112250. William: No. It’s 07632 112254. Travel Agent: Sorry, five four. And when would you like to go? William: On the weekend of the 15th June. Travel Agent: Fine. Checking in on 15th June. And when would you like to check out? William: I’d like to stay until the night of Monday 18th June. So I’d be leaving on Tuesday 19 th. Travel Agent: Right. Check out on Tuesday 19th June. And how will you be paying? William: By credit card. How much will it be? Travel Agent: Ahhh. Let me see ... four nights at ninety pounds per night is three hundred and sixty pounds. Is that OK? It includes breakfast and dinner and a treatment a day. William: Yes. That sounds fine. I’m looking forward to it. Questions 8-10 Track 42 Travel Agent: Would you like me to tell you how to get to the hotel once you’re in the village? It’s a bit difficult to find. William: Oh, yes, please. I have maps on my mobile phone, but there isn’t always a signal. Travel Agent: OK. Well, coming in to the village from the motorway, which is in the east, the first building you see on your right is the church. It's right opposite the garden centre. William: OK. The church is on my right, and the garden centre on my left. Travel Agent: Yes ... Just after that, you'll come tothe railway crossing and then you’ll see the river on your left. After that on the right you’ll see the school. It’s just before the bridge over the river. William: So the school’s before the bridge. Travel Agent: Yes, that’s right. Now just after the bridge, you'll see a turning on your left. Take that and follow the road through the fields. On your left, between the road and the river you'll see a lot of vegetable gardens. Just keep going down the road to the end. It leads straight into the car park at the spa. You can’t miss it. It’s at the end of the road. William: Thank you very much for your help. Travel Agent: My pleasure. I hope you have a lovely weekend. Section 2 Questions 11-13 Track 43 Good morning. Welcome to the Science Museum. There's so much to do here, you could spend all day going from one exhibition to another. But if your time is limited, I’d suggest choosing maybe just one main exhibition. At the moment, I’d recommend our new exhibition of everyday inventions. It’s amazing to see how objects we use in our daily lives, like paper clips, tea bags and light bulbs were invented in the first place and how they’ve developed over the years into such an essential part of our lives that we hardly ever notice them. You shouldn't miss it ... The other thing I’d suggest if you don’t have much time, is a guided tour of the free exhibitions. These tours usually start on the hour, umm ... at one o’clock, two o’clock and so on. They’re quite short, only half an hour, so you could do a couple of tours in an afternoon, if you wanted to. If you’d like to go on a tour, you should go to the entrance of the exhibition on the ground floor and wait for the guide there. Questions 14-17 Track 44 Just to give you an idea of the range of exhibitions we have here at the museum, I’m going to tell you about the exhibitions and activities we have for visitors of different ages. First of all, for the little ones, we have a fascinating area called Shapes and Patterns, where they can play with objects and images and see how they form different patterns. It’s really colourful and exciting. Kids love it. Then, at the other end of the scale we have more complex exhibitions that appeal more to our older visitors. There's one about the history of aviation, how planes developed over the years. Older visitors may even be able to remember some of the earlier planes on display. Another exhibition that adults might particularly enjoy is the energy exhibition. It shows the historical development of different forms of energy in Britain and how it has powered industry over the centuries. And, of course, we mustn’t forget the teenagers. There are lots of exhibitions to interest them, but my favourite one is the one where visitors can find out more about how physics works. It’s a fun exhibition with plenty of hands-on activities, that explore how light and heat and chemicals work. I still go there myself now and then. It’s brilliant. Questions 18-20 Track 45 Most of our exhibitions are free, but you will need a ticket for some of the special ones, like the 3D film shows. So let me explain how you get a ticket online. Of course, you can do this directly at the ticket office, but if there’s a long queue, you can book online on your mobile. So, go to our home page and choose the ‘events’ button. Then click on the film title. That’ll take you to the next window. In the right hand corner you’ll see a little calendar. Choose the date on the calendar and then go to the next window. There’s a drop down box there for you to choose the time and another one for the number of tickets. Careful on that page ... there are different prices for adults and children. When you’ve done that, go to the final page and choose your payment method.

Unit 10: Work-life balance Track 20 Their holidays start at the beginning of July. Listen again. Their holidays start at the beginning of July. Track 21 When you start university you’ll probably find it’s not all that easy to balance the time you spend on studying with the time you spend going out with your friends. In fact, one of the biggest problems you’ll have is managing your time. Of course, it’s perfectly understandable ... I mean, in many cases, it's probably the first time you’ll have lived away from home. So you’ll have to do lots more things for yourself, like buying your own food, washing your clothes and managing your own money. At the same time, there’s no-one there to tell you what time to come home at night, or what time to get up in the morning. On top of that, at university you won t have as many hours of class as you did at school, and your tutors will expect you to study on your own a lot more. So you might feel you’ve got a lot of free time on your hands. So how do you deal with it? Well, to be honest, I don’t think there's an easy answer, but I think it helps to go to all your classes, however tired you are. Print a copy of your timetable and put it on the wall in your bedroom. Actually, your university might even have a system for alerting you on your mobile when vour lectures are. Apart from that, you could try not going out during the week and keeping your social life for the weekend. I’m not sure that’s very easy though. One thing I will say, though, is that at the end of the year, after your exams, you can really relax. Track 22 I started this new job a couple of weeks ago and I’m having a lot of trouble with my work-life balance. In my last job we had fixed hours. We had to be at the office at 9.00 on the dot and we always finished at exactly 5.00. Any work we hadn’t finished we could just leave for the next day. But this new job's very different. I mean, in this job, we can come into the office any time between 8.00 and 10.00 in the morning. Then we can choose whether to have a lunch break or not. Then it gets a bit complicated ... Ummm ... If we have a lunch break we can leave between 4.00 and 6.00. If we don’t have a lunch break, we can go home between 3.00 and 5.00. OK, well at first this system sounded really good, especially for me because I have young children. But, the problem is that, if we haven’t finished our work, we have to finish it off at home. So it's actually very difficult to draw the line between work and home. For example, on Mondays I can leave the children at school, go to the gym and get into the office quite late. But I can't take a lunch break, because I need to leave early to pick the children up from school. They come out at 4.00. And then I have to work from home in the evening to finish what I have to do. Track 23 If you look at this chart you can see how we plan our projects. This one is a survey we’re working on this year about where people liked to shop. OK? Well, we always start by having a team meeting. That’s in the first column called tasks. So, in this team meeting we decide what we need to do, who’s going to do it and ... err ... when it's got to be ready. Right? So you can see here in the second column, we’ve got the start date of the project. That's the 23rd January. That’s the same day we have the team meeting. If you look down the tasks column you can see that the first thing we have to do is write a draft questionnaire. You know, like an outline of the questions we want to ask. Then we have to check the questionnaire to make sure the questionsare right. If you look at the lines in column three, you can see the dates when we have to complete important tasks in the project. These are what we call milestones in the project. For example, when we’ve checked the questionnaire on the 25th April, we’ll have reached a milestone, and when we’ve completed the survey on the 30th June, we'll have reached another milestone.On the 15th August, when we finish entering the data on the database, when we finish entering the data on the database, we’ll have finished the first phase of the project. The second phase of the project involves writing the report. We’ll be doing that between 15th August and the 15th September. And that’s the deadline for the project to be handed to the client. Track 24 In our company we believe that our employees are more productive, you know, they work better, if they’re happy. Naturally, we have to make sure the company makes a profit, but at the same time we need to think about the physical and mental health of our employees. We do understand that they aren't just working machines ... So we have a policy of helping them find a fair balance between their work and their private lives. What we call a work-life balance. We do this in several ways. Firstly, we have a family friendly policy, so parents can look after their children when they’re very young. For example, sometimes they need to work flexible hours, you know, times that aren’t fixed. Other times parents have to work part time ... and quite a lot work from home. Another example of our family friendly policy is our generous maternity leave package. In our company, we allow women who’ve had a baby to take a whole year off work after the baby’s born. And, of course, while they’re away, their jobs are protected. Track 25 Because we want our employees to be happy, we carried out a survey recently, to find out which working patterns are really most popular. In general, our staff prefer to work at the office. In fact, nearly half come in during regular office hours ... you know, from 9.00 to 5.00. Anyway, we also asked about part-time work, working from home and another option ... [pause] job sharing. Job sharing is a kind of part-time work, where two people share the responsibilities for one full time job. Anyway, we found that only 5% of our staff wanted to share a job. So, it’s not very popular, on the whole. But when it comes to working part-time, we were surprised to find that 27% of our employees would actually prefer it. That’s a very high number, really ... over a quarter of the staff... And then it was interesting to see that quite a lot of our staff - 20% in fact, would like to work from home. Track 26 I’d like to give you an example of the kind of person who benefits most from our family friendly policy. Sally is one of our assistants in accounting, who has two small children. Sally’s husband travels abroad a lot so she has to look after the children on her own most of the time. Both the children go to a nursery early in the morning.So, we’ve agreed that Sally can come in at 8 o’clock, after she leaves the children. At lunchtime Sally's sister picks the children up from the nursery. But she has to go to work herself at three o’clock. So Sally leaves the office at two to collect the children from her sister’s. And she makes up the extra time by finishing her work at home.

Review 3 Track 19 1 ... we thought that young women would spend a lot on clothes and shoes, and that young men would buy more video games, mobile phones and cars. 2 We found that although young women don't spend as much as men on eating out, they do spend a lot more on organic foods than young men. 3 ... in fact, people aged between 30 and 35 spend most of their money on furniture and kitchen equipment ... People are usually improving their homes at that age and household equipment is very expensive.

CD2 Track 11 A Karl: Hi Trudy. What are you doing this weekend? I'm going swimming, down at the beach. Trudy: Oh. right ... I'm going running. I’m practising for the marathon next month. Do you like running, Karl? Karl: No. Not me! B Hillary: Hey, Karl, do you feel like going to the cinema tonight? There's a really good film on. Karl: Oh, I'm sorry Tracey. I’ve already got tickets to go a concert this evening. C Trudy: What are you doing this vacation, John? I’m travelling around Europe for a while before I go back to Australia. John: Oh, really? I’m not that keen on travelling, to be honest. I’m going to spend my vacation gardening. D Trudy: I'm going cycling on Saturday, Hillary. Do you want to come along? Hillary: Thanks a lot, but I’ve got a lot of cooking to do for the party in the evening. I hope you’re still coming. Trudy: Of course I am. Wouldn’t miss it!

Sally: Well, at the moment I’m training to be a private pilot. Martin: No way! Really? What made you want to do that? Sally: Well, I’ve always loved the idea of flying a plane, ever since I was a little girl. Martin: Wow! Isn’t it expensive? Sally: Err..., yeah, but it’s worth it ... It’s an amazing experience. But what about you, Martin? What do you do for leisure? Martin: Nothing nearly as exciting ... I plav ice hockey in my spare time. I’m captain of the college team. So at weekends, we travel to games all over the state. Sally: But that sounds fun. Do you enjoy leading the team? Martin: Yeah, I do. Track 14 Judy: Hi, Steve. What are you doing? Steve: Well, I collect stamps with pictures of tropical birds on them. So, I’m looking for more of those. Judy: Oh ... that's interesting. Which ones have you got so far? Steve: I’ve got a 32 cent stamp with a picture of a cardinal honeyeater on it. It came out in 1998. Judy: A cardinal honeyeater? Is that a bird? Steve: Can I see? Judy: Yeah, here ... It’s a tropical bird. Steve: Oh, yes. It’s beautiful ... So which country is the stamp from? Judy: The United States. Steve: Mmmm ... and how did you get it? Do you know someone in the States? Judy: No. It’s not like that. I buy stamps from other collectors. Look at this one ... I bought it last week. It’s a twenty five cent stamp. Steve: Oh, brilliant! It's got a parrot on it! Judy: When was it issued? Steve: 1967 Judy: OK ... And where’s it from? Steve: It's from Brazil. Judy: Cool! Track 15 Administrator: Hi, can I help you? Are you interested in climbing, at all? Andrew: Hi. Yeah. Actually, I've been thinking about joining a club for a while now. So what do I have to do? Administrator: It's easy really. I can fill in the form for you right now, online, and then you can come to our first meeting next month. Andrew: OK. Let’s do that then. Administrator: Right. First of all, what’s your name? Andrew: Andrew. Administrator: Andrew ... and your family name? Andrew: Metcalfe. Administrator: Metcalfe ... How do you spell that? Andrew: M-E-T-C-A-L-F-E Administrator: M-E-T-C-A-L-F-E, with an ‘e’. Andrew: Yes, that’s right Administrator: And your age? Are you over 18? Andrew: Yup. I’m 21 Administrator: And where do you live? Andrew: My address is 43A Highbury Square, London, W1 Administrator: Thanks ... and do you have a number where I can contact you? Andrew: Yes, my mobile is 07209 571324 Administrator: And I have to ask a couple more questions. Ummm ... do you have any health problems? Andrew: No, no. Nothing. Administrator: And a last question. Have you ever climbed before? Andrew: Yes. I have, a bit. Administrator: Well, thanks very much. Track 16 Victoria: Hello. Are you the person to ask about joining a club? Mark: Yes, I am. What would you like to know? Victoria: Well, I’m interested in several things, but I’d like to know more about the different clubs and how much they cost. I'm looking for a small club that’s not too expensive. Mark: OK. Have a look at this table. You can see the names of the clubs, the fees and the number of members. I’m afraid they aren't in any order. If you look at the top of the list, the first club is table tennis. That's one of our new clubs. Victoria: Oh, right. So the table tennis club costs £20. That’s quite expensive. Mark: Yes, it is a bit expensive. The cross country cycling club is cheaper, though. Membership fees are only £15, but on the other hand it's got 100 members. Victoria: The film and drama club costs a lot, doesn’t it? Mark: Yes, £50 is a lot. And that’s probably why it only has 12 members. Ahhh ... is there any other club you think looks interesting? Look at the next one ... street dance. Have you ever done any street dance? Victoria: No, I haven’t, really. Mark: It’s the cheapest. It only costs £5. Victoria: Mmmm ... Track 17 Mark: OK. Shall we start with your interests? What do you like doing best? Victoria: Ummm ... well, I like photography. I’ve got a professional camera. So I take it quite seriously. But I can’t really imagine belonging to a club to take photographs. I usually go on long walks on my own and take photos. So I like photography, but I wouldn’t want to join a club to do it. OK, so what else do you like doing? Running? Mark: Oh no! Not running! I like walking, but I hate running. I’m afraid the running club isn't for me or the cycling club. Victoria: And film and drama? Mark: Ahh, no ... It’s far too expensive. But I do like voga. I’ve practised yoga on and off for years. Victoria: How many members does the yoga club have? Mark: It’s always a small group. A lot of people sign up at the beginning of term, but they stop going after a few weeks. So they’re left with a few regular members every year. Victoria: That sounds good. I think I’d like to join the yoga club. And what about the contemporary dance club? Is it expensive? Mark: Contemporary dance? No, it’s not expensive. £10 for the term ... Do you like dance? Victoria: Well, I’ve never tried contemporary dance, but I do like iazz and tap dance. How often does the group meet? Track 18 Mark:So can I have your full name, please? Victoria Victoria: Mandeville. Mark: M-A-N-D-A-V-l-L Victoria: No, no. M-A-N-D-E-V-l-L-L-E. Mark: Double L, E. Thank you. And how old are you? Victoria: Nineteen. Mark: And your address? Victoria: 57 Burv Gardens. Atherton Park, Manchester, M46 Mark: How do you spell ‘Bury’? B-E-R-R-Y? Victoria: No. It’s B-U-R-Y Mark: Right. B-U-R-Y. And do you have a contact number? Victoria: Yes. My mobile is: 07942 573 279 Mark: 07942 573 279? Victoria: Yes, that’s right. Is that all? Mark: Ahh ... one more thing. Do you have an email address?
