best . There 's a lot of running up and down involved, so you get f i t .

But i t atso needs a Lot of sk i l l to use your st ick we[[ when you pass

the ba[ [ and to tacl<le your opponents. And i t 's a great feel ing whenyou score a goau

Recording 9bWell , in the f l rs t p icture I can see some runners at the end of a race

and in the second picture I can see a hockey match. I th ink a runner

has just won the race. The two hockey teams are in the mjddle of a

ma tch and I t h i nk one s i de i s go ing t o sco re a goa l .

The runner is wear ing a T-shir t wi thout s leeves and some shorts and

tra iners. The hockey team are wear ing short-sLeeved T-shir ts and

shorts. You don' t need speciat equipment for running - just yoursel f

and lots of t ra in ing! For hockey you need a sort of st ick and a bal l .

Running is for one person and hockey is a game for a team, that 's

the biggest d i f ference. A running race can be very quick, unLess i t 's

a ma ra thon - and a hockey game goes on f o r abou t an hou r I t h i nk .

I n my op in i on be ing a r unne r can be qu i t e l oneLy , and p l ay i ng i n any

team [ ike hockey is more fun. I 've never ptayed hockey, but I have

done some running - that 's another d i f ference for me!

haven' t spoken to each other for three months. I know I shoutd get

in touch wi th h im to mal<e up because we were very c lose f r iends.

In fact he was my best f r iend and we totd each other everyth ing.

Speaker 2: N4y cousin int roduced me to Francesca. The moment I saw

her I fe[ in love wi th her. I don' t know how she feels about me. We

spent the whole evening chat t ing and we got on wet l together but I

haven' t seen her s ince - that was three days and four hours ago. I 'd

real ly l ike to get to l<now her but she doesn' t answer her phone.

Speaker 3: I have a good f r iendship wi th. lasmine. Our fathers worked

together and were otd f r iends so Jasmine and I became good

fr iends and we used to ptay together. Af ter we both got marr ied we

lost touch for a whi le but then my brother had a party and invi ted

us both and we remembered how much we enjoyed each other 'scompany so we make sure we keep in touch now. We phone eachother every week.

Speaker4: I don' t make f r iends easi ly butwhen I do make a f r iend

we usual ly become close. Petra was jn the same cLass as me

at col lege last year and we somet imes had [unch together. We

discovered we had th ings in common l ike we both enjoy f l lms. Sowe've been to the c inema tosether a few t imes.

Recording lObMy fami ly are the most important people in my [ i fe because I knowthey wiL[ a lways be there i f I need them. We do al [ argue somet imesbut most ly we get on wel l together and enjoy each other 's company.My f r iends are also important . Most of my f r iends t ike doing the samethings as me - shopping, watching TV and f i tms. A few of my f r iends

a re i n t he sw imming t eam w i t h me so we have t ha t i n common . Mos t l y

we have the same ideas about th ings but we somet imes fa l l out over

is one extra let ter that you do not need to use.

Speaker 1: I arr ived at the party [ate because I have to work on

Saturdays and I a lso Bot lost because I 'd forgot ten to br ing a map.

My brother had rented a [arge room above a caf6 for our mother 's

eight ieth b i r thday and the caf6 made a[ l the food. I t was rea[ [y

det ic ious. The room was great as i t had windows looking over the

r iver. I t was very crowded because the whole fami ly came and there

were lots of chi ldren so i t wasn' t possib le to dance or even move

around much. I don' t th ink Peter had expected everyone to turn up.

Speaker 2: I was reaLly looking forward to Granny's b i r thday. I got

there at about e ight which is what the invi tat ion said but the party

had atready star ted. Apparent ly most peopte got there ear l ier

before Granny so she couLd have a surpr ise but not everyone had

been to ld about that . Some other people arr ived even later when

near ly a l [ the food had gone. That was the only problem real ty- there wasn' t enough of i t . The chi ldren ate most of i t before the

adul ts got near i t .

Speaker3: I twas my bir thdayon Saturday and I had a lovety party

organised by my son Peter. There were more than B0 peopte there.

I d idn' t real ise I had such a large fami ly. There were so many

chi ldren - I 've got four grealgrandchi tdren and of course great-

nephews and nieces too - and they were so wel l -behaved. There

were also lots of people f rom my generat ion but some of them

struggLed to get up the two f l ights of sta i rs to the room. Al though

i t was a wonderfu l set t ing, a ground f loor room would have been

better . Everyone enjoyed i t , especia l ty the food, a l though I d idn' t

manage t o ea t much .

Speaker 4: My s ister had a lovely b i r thday party last Saturday.

Everyone dressed up in their best c lothes - we[[ , most people did.

Some o f t he young peop [e d i dn ' t bo the r bu t I suppose t hey don ' t

nowadays. And there were Lots of chi ldren. In fact , I found them a

bi t annoying as they got bored and just rushed around making a lot

of noise. They needed a quiet area wi th a TV or something. Anyway,

they had a good t ime [ ike everyone else. The best th ing for me was

tha t I d i dn ' t have t o t h i nk abou t any o f t he a r rangemen ts because

my son took me there and just totd me when to be ready.

Speaker 5: My aunt ie was 80 last weekend and the whole fami ly was

invi ted to a party. I t was down a l i t t le s ide street so not easy to f lnd

but I took a taxi there so i t wasn' t a probtem for me. I t had a [arge

balcony so, a l though there were a lot of peopte, there was plenty of

room out there when you needed a breath of a i r . The invi tat ion didn' t

say what to wear so I put on a tong dress and I fe l t a b i t embarrassed.

Some people looked as though they'd come stra ight f rom the beach.

I t d idn' t matter though and everyth inB went of f perfect ly .

Speaker 3: I really love Neighbours. It's on every day during theweek at [unchtjme but i t 's repeated in the evenings. The charactersbecome l ike your family or good fr iends because you get to knowthem so we[[ and you want to know what happens to them. Theplots have been rea[[y good recently.

Recording 16aMartha: My name is Martha and I 've been a widow for twenty years.

As a chitd, I always wanted to have six chi ldren. I actualty had twobut I have six grandchildren and a great-granddaughter who isthree years old.

Rob: My name is Rob and before I 'm thirty in a couple of years't ime, I want to do some travel l ing because I didn't have a gap yearbetween school and university.

fessie: My name is Jessie and I 've just stopped working because I 'mpregnant. The baby's due in March - the day after my thirty-secondbirthday. I 've already got a toddler so i t wi l l be hard work.

Callum: I 'm Callum. I 'm an only chitd and I 've got a cousin who'sabout my age so we spend quite a lot oft ime together. But I frndhim very chi ldish - he st i t t ptays with his train set l ike a kid andhe's going to be fourteen soon.

Jim: I 'm Jim and my chi ldren are grown up. I ' [ [ ret ire in ten years't ime. I don't feeL my age though and I don't think I look j t ei ther.

Recording 16bStudent: The photos show two dif ferent classrooms. In the top one

the chi ldren are doing a practical lesson. I think they are probablymaking things out of wood and they're wearing something to covertheir ctothes. Each person is doing something dif ferent. At the backa girt 's doing something by a machine but I 'm not sure what exactly.In the bottom picture, the students are sit t ing at desks in rowsand the teacher is standing at the front. He's point ing at someone,probably asking them a question. This classroom is more formaland the students aren't f lnding things out for themselves. BothcLasses have a teacher but in the top picture the teacher looks lkehe is helping the students with their questions. In both pictures,the students [ook interested in what they're learning but I think i t 'sbetter to learn by doing things yoursetf instead of just si t t ing andl iste ni ng.

Recording 19Examiner: You wi lL hear an interv iew wi th an Austra l ian sheep farmer

cal led Gina El l is , who is ta lk ing about her work and plans for thefuture. L isten and choose the best answer for each quest ion: a, b or c.

Interv iewer: And on today's Green Magazine programme, we haveGina Et l is , an Austra l ian sheep farmer. Welcome, Gina.

Gina: Thank you.

Interv iewer: So Gina, te[ [ our l is teners something about sheepfarming in your country.

Gina: Wel l , I 'm f rom New South Wales, where over 3O7o of sheepfarming takes place. But in fact , at though i t 's concentrated in onearea, there are [arge sheep farms r ight across the country, and i tdoesn' t only go on in the coolest ptaces.

Interv iewer: I see. And I bel ieve sheep farmers are exper iencingproblems at the moment?

Gina: Yeah, that 's r ight . There are two, one to do wi th markets andthe other envr ' ronmental . There 's a good market for meat, but thewool industry is st ruggt ing. Al though Austra l ia st i l l produces about10% of the wor ld 's wool , inc luding near ly hal f of the top qual i ty

mer ino wool , demand is fa l l ing - consumers of ten prefer synthet icc loth ing, l ike f leeces, which are cheaper than wool len jumpers andequal ly warm. But the biggest issue for a l l us farmers is c l imatechange - drought is causing major water shortages in farmingareas, so i t 's becoming harder to f lnd enough for our animals andc ro ps.

Interv iewer: Let 's ta lk about the market problems a bi t more. Areyou looking for new uses for your woo[?

Gina: Wel l yes. I t is very versat i le and has been put to so many usesover the centur ies. 0f course carpet manufacture st i [ [ absorbs ahigh percentage of our product as i t a lways has, and now we'retooking for other domest ic uses. The most promising seems to be

Recording scripts

the idea of using i t in bui ldings as a form of insutat ion. Companiesdeveloping i t have found i t very effect ive. And there's atso interestin eco-clothing, you know, clothing made from al[ naturat products,and produced organical ly. But i t 's a special ised market and mayturn out to be uneconomic in the end... .

Interviewer: 5o why are you over here in the UK at the moment? Areyou looking for solut ions to your business probtems?

Gina: Wet[, yes. I 'm working in co-operation with ten other [argefarms to see i f we coutd develop an alternative energy systemproducing enough etectr ici ty to sel[ as wetl as meeting our ownneeds. Clearly hydro-electr ici ty isn't for us, and, er, t idaI poweris out, so I 've been looking into ideas for harnessing wind power,using [arge turbines. Bri tain has a lot ofexpert ise in that area, sothat 's why i 'm here. 0f course, we have potential for solar power,but I don't think we could produce a surplus with that.

Interviewer: That 's interesting. What made you consider theseoptions?

Gina: Wel[, i f the predict ions about global warming are correct,farmers in Austral ia wil l have to diversify, and look for othersources of income. That 's my reason for looking into wind power.0f course, since then I 've begun to real ise that being setf-suff icientand not having to rely entirely on other power sources is attract iveand I 'm start ing to think in a greener way.

Interviewer: I see. And what do you feel about the advice you'vebeen given?

Gina: Welt, i t 's given me a lotof food forthoughtand, er, taught methe advantages of a more ecological ly aware approach to l i fe andwork. And now that I have the information I 've worked out that theinvestment invotved is manageable. We should be able to scaledown on the amount of animals we rajse and st i t l make a l iving.

Interviewer: Great, so how would you sum up your feetings aboutyour proiect?

Gina: Wetl to my del ight our basic ptans are viable and we can presson very optimist ical ly, without making any major alterat ions. Andthe costs involved do seem to be lower than we'd feared...

Interviewer: Gina, we wish you [uck, and thanks for coming in today.Gina: Thank you .. . .Examiner: Now [ isten again.

Recording 2OaWel[ , I 'm mad about cr ime novels and I read a lot of them, especia l tywhen I 'm on a long f l ight . I t makes me th ink when I read those stor ies,so i t 's [ ike doing a crossword. I feel you have to read careful ly so you

don' t miss the ctues. I used to [ ike the American wr i ter Chartot teCentrone, but now I feel that a l l the detaiL she goes into about deadbodies is real ly horr ib le, so I avoid her books now. I 'd rather readsomething by PD James - in my opin ion she's a br i l l iant wr i ter . Shedoes fantast ic descr ipt ions of ptaces, and I reckon her charactersare reat is t ic - you can sort of get ins ide their heads. And InspectorDalgl iesh is my favour i te detect ive. He's a quiet man, but incredib lyc lever and I 'm sure he real ly understands people.

Recording 2obInter locutor : Now I 'd l ike you to ta lk about something together for

about three minutes. I 'm just going to l is ten.The students in your c lass are choosing a book to read. Here are thedi f ferent types of books they can choose.

L27

Recording scripts

First tatk to each other about what type of book each picture shows,and what the story is going to be about. Then decide which bookwould be the best choice for everyone in your class to read together.You only have about three minutes for this. So, once again, don'tworry i f I stop you, and please speak so that we can hear you. Al lright?

Student A: Okay. Well , I know this f irst one, i t 's an old-fashionedstory about Sherlock Holmes, a murder story I think... cr ime.

StudentB: 0h yes, I sawa f i lm with Sherlock Holmes. And the nextone is a science f lct ion story.. . You know, space, rockets and things.And this one, wetl i t has to be a Love story I think... . . very romantic.

StudentA: Mmm and I don't know the word forthis, but I thinkit 's astory about a phantom ...

Student B: Yes, a ghost story I think... . and this one is what? Athri l ler or adventure story? Who are these people running away?

Student A: They couLd be thieves I suppose, or even the good guys .. . .And there's a plane, so i t could be excit ing.

Student B: Yes, and this last picture is about history - a historicalnovel. I t 's set in the past. That 's why they're wearing these strangectothes. And there's going to be a frght with swords.

StudentA: Okay, so we knowwhatthe books are. What shal l wechoose for our class? It has to be something everyone witt t ike.

Student B: Wett, I l ike ghost stories, but I think most people preferadventure stories, thri l lers.

Student A: Yeah, maybe .. . I 'd rather read the science f ict ion storybecause I [ ike that sort of thing. But do you think the others wit[ [ ikethat?

Student B: Probably not!! And I don't think most people wilL want toread the love story, do you?

Student A: Defrnitely not! They're always so sentimentaL and youalways know there's going to be a happy ending.

Student B: 0kay. So what are we left with? The thri l ler and the crimenovet, the one we think is Shertock Holmes, and the historical novel.. . . What do you reckon?

Student A: In my opinion the thri l ter wou[d be best, because mostpeopte wil l l ike i t and i t 's modern. But I think the crime novel wouldbe my second choice.

Student B: Yes, exactty, I agree with you. I think the thri l ler is thebest choice.

Student A: So we can say we have agreed on this?Student B: Defrnitely! We have decided that the thri l ler is the best

choice for our class. We think nearlv evervone wit l t ike i t .

Recording 2OcExaminer: Listen to the recording and choose the best answer:

a, b or c. You hear the beginning of a radio programme. What isthe programme going to be about, a teenage criminals, b teenagevotunteers, c teenage journal ists?

Radio presenter: As anyone who reads a newspaper knows, youngpeople often get a very bad press these days, with sensationaIstories about drug and crime problems everywhere. 5o i t 's goodto be able to present a series ofshows with a dif ferent focus andlook at the posit ive contr ibution of young people in our very ownarea.
