TV host: Good evening! Welcome to our weekly show 'Adventures'. Today we are going to talk about a very exciting thing - sports. Our guests are John and Sarah who are members of the 'Go, Go, Go!' club. Welcome to our show!

John and Sarah: Thank you.Host: First, tell us a little bit about your club. John: OK. The club has a long, interesting history. It started almost 9 years ago with a small group of people who were very

interested in adventure sports. Now it has almost a hundred members.Host: What programs or activities do you do in your club? Sarah: There are several programs that we have, but the main programs are wind-surfing, bungee-jumping and hang-gliding.Host: Sounds so exciting. Tell us little more about hang-gliding. John: Sure. For me, it is such an interesting sport where a pilot flies a light un-motorized aircraft called a hang glider or Delta plane.

A pilot controls the flight by shifting his or her body weight.Host: Interesting. But how safe is it? Sarah: It used to be an unsafe sport in earlier times, but today aircrafts are equipped with radio, GPS, first-aid equipment, and back-

up parachutes. So, modern technology gives us not only the chance to glide cross-country for hundreds of kilometers but also do some aerobatics as well.

Host: Wow! So fascinating! John: Yeah. But I know some people find it scary because safety of the flight depends on the weather. You can't always control the

wind or air flow.Host: It's true. That sounds so dangerous! I'm sure that good, safe gliding requires the skills and training of the pilot.Sarah: Yes. That's why we have a very good pilot training program that consists of ... (fades)

Reporter: Hello! I'm from the 'Teen Sports' magazine. I've got a few questions to ask you. Instructor: Sure.Reporter: Could you tell us a little bit about the sports activities in your school?Instructor: Sure. Besides physical education classes our students are free to go to school sports clubs. There are several of them. They are very

popular and quite busy after school.Reporter: How many clubs are there in your school? Which ones are very popular?Instructor: There are five of them: fitness, basketball, athletics, swimming and football clubs. We have more girls in volleyball and the football club

is the most popular among boys. We have quite a strong team which is the two-time champion of the district. Last year was a very special year for the entire school. One of our students won the second place in running. Even though she broke the school record, she didn't win the first place. And our girls’ team won a gold medal in a volleyball competition among district schools.

Reporter: Oh, did they? That's wonderful! How about this year?Instructor: Unfortunately this year was not very lucky for us. Although our football team tried really hard, they lost their first game.Reporter: Oh, that's too bad! But there is always a chance in the future. I've heard that your students are strong in swimming as well.Instructor: Oh, yes. We have a great team! Last year they were the second. Despite trying hard they couldn't get the Year Cup. This year the team is

busy preparing for the competition. We hope this year they will be the best.Reporter: Your students' achievements are really impressive. And surely your clubs are great places that attract many students. How about the

facilities?Instructor: Oh, we have quite good facilities. We have a big swimming pool, a tennis court, and a gym. Our football field is one of the

biggest in our district. Just recently we bought new facilities for our fitness center. We hope that our school teams will be successful in upcoming Student Olympic among our district schools.

Reporter: That sounds great!

LESSON 5 SELF-CHECK

LISTENING AND SPEAKING

8. Listen to the interview with a sports instructor and answer. Are these people talking about birds or people?

Reporter: We all do things differently at different times of the day because of our individual biological cycles. You might be a 'morning person' or an 'evening person'. What kind of person are you?

Instructor: Some people may find it difficult to get up early, but I enjoy it.Reporter: Do you?Instructor: Yes. There are some good things about being an 'early bird.'Reporter: By the way, who are the 'early birds'?Instructor: An 'early bird' is a person who usually gets up early in the morning and goes to bed early in the evening. They feel most energetic just after

they get up in the morning. I exercise every morning, it really wakes me up and leaves me feeling enthusiastic all day long.Reporter: But some people often go to gym in the evening, after their work.Instructor: Yes. If your normal day really doesn't let you do exercise in the morning, then why not do it in the evening? This is really suitable for

'night owls.' These are people who usually get up late and may feel most awake in the evening.Reporter: Are there any special preferences for being an 'early bird' or 'a night owl'?Instructor: Not really. Let me tell you one thing. A survey of over 400 people showed approximately 15% of them are morning

people, 25% evening people, and 60% of them are both, morning and evening.Reporter: That's interesting!Instructor: Personally I think there are more benefits of getting up early. Some physiologists believe that morning exercises help us to burn

stored fat and sleep better at night. People who exercise in the evening actually had a more difficult time falling asleep. The study showed night owls not only eat more calories but also eat more unhealthily than those who wake up early.

Reporter: OK. There are definitely some good things about being an 'early bird' then. Is it possible to train yourself to be an 'early bird'?Instructor: Yes. I may not have been an early bird since birth, but after years of training myself, my body naturally wants to get up early. In

fact, I'm now almost incapable of sleeping after 8 am. And I can use morning time for exercising, going for a walk or I can simply enjoy a morning in my office preparing for work.

open-minded and quite easygoing. You know, she is always cheerful. I'm sure Nomin will make the party more interesting.

Iveel : So am I. How about Tulga? He is a nice boy. But I don't like when he boasts about himself. I think, sometimes he is arrogant.

mood last time.Alex: I really want to but I'm not sure. She's sometimes stubborn. What will I do if she says 'No'?Iveel: You shouldn't worry about that. Just be yourself and ask her out.

LISTENING AND SPEAKING6a. Listen to the social worker and answer. What are they talking about?

a. Teenagers' dating b. Teenagers' free time activities

Reporter :Today we’ve invited a social worker, Mrs. Hunter, to talk to us. I think, many teenagers can't wait for our program to start. So, let's get started.

Mrs. Hunter :Today I'll talk about how teenagers date in Britain and America. Dating is important for two people, especially young people who are deeply interested in each other. In Britain young people start dating around the age of 14 or 15. They usually go out to watch a film, attend a party or watch a concert or other event. If you go on a date, it doesn't mean you will get married. Sometimes young people meet someone they haven't met before, this is called a 'blind date'. Sometimes two couples go on a date as a group and this is called a 'double date'. When a couple goes out on a date sometimes they share the cost or 'go Dutch'. Sometimes the boys pay.

Many American teenagers start dating around the age of 15 or 16. When people in the U.S. go on dates they usually go to dinner, a movie, or to a bar. These are common date places. Sometimes people do special things like going to see a concert, a picnic, or to the theater. For some people, going to the movies is a common dating activity, but it's hard to get to know each other by just sitting in the dark. Instead, you might consider going for a drive, biking in the mountains, or making dinner together. When you start dating somebody regularly, we say that you are 'seeing' somebody. If you get along really well, then you might become a couple. Sometimes, one person falls in love, which means they start to have strong feelings for the other person.

UNIT FOUR LIVING IN THE GLOBAL WORLD

3. give up your own ideas a. stop trying to do things

4. avoid arguments e. prevent from disagreements

2a. Listen to the TV interview and answer. What is the main topic of the interview?a. Human relationshipsb. Personality developmentc. Improving human relationships

Interviewer : Mr. Dawson, thank you for taking the time and coming to our studio. We are really honored to have you for our TV talk show.

Dr. Dawson : Oh, it's also a great honor for me to be part of your show because I know a lot of people like to watch your program.Interviewer : You're right, a lot of people watch our program. It's quite popular, especially among young people. Well, I think it's

time to start our talk. ... Today we’ve invited to our studio a well-known psychologist Dr. Phil Dawson who has written a lot of interesting books and articles related to human relationships. The first thing I'd like to ask is 'Why is it so important to build relationships with others?'

Dr. Dawson : First of all, relationships mean the interactions that take place among people. In other words, it is how people react to what others say. Everybody knows that he or she must build good relations with people if they want to be successful.

Interviewer : What do you mean by being successful?Dr. Dawson : To be successful, you should do more than just get along with others. You should be able to influence them. This doesn't

mean you should always get your own way. But, quite often, you would need to convince others to see things the way you do.

Interviewer : It sounds very interesting. But what is the most important thing in human relationships?Dr. Dawson : Right, this is what I expected you to ask. The most important thing is to understand others. We all are different from each

other. But there are some certain feelings and needs we all have. So we should learn these things and then we can better understand each other.

Interviewer : I see. And what would you suggest people do to better understand each other?Dr. Dawson : Well, I usually take a long time to explain everything in detail. But here as I can see I have a very limited time, so I'll be very

brief. In order to better understand others, you should learn about others' feelings, show your interest, make others feel important, sometimes give up some of your ideas, avoid arguments, give praise, and emphasize the positive. These are basic things I can advise everyone. But I'd like to say that the most difficult thing is to follow this advice.

LESSON 4 PERSONAL HEROES

2a. Listen to the conversation and answer. What are the two women taking about?

Donna : Sandy, as I remember you were in Girl Guiding for a long time.Sandy : You're right. I was a girl guide since I was a little girl. I grew up in Oakville, Ontario, in a little town called Bronte. At that

time, girl guiding was very popular in our town.Donna :You must have a lot of girl guiding experience. What memories do you have about that?Sandy : Well, I was a Brownie, a Guide, a Pathfinder and a Junior Leader. It was really fun and I enjoyed being part of girl guiding.Donna : Did you have somebody who taught you how to be a good girl guide?Sandy : Sure. In most cases, everyone has one person who they admire. I don't have one hero but rather a group of them. The women

who run the girls' units were all completely different. Some were good at outdoor activities, some were great at crafts, some liked to run big events, and some reminded us to laugh. Eran Miller was completely different from the others. She was always ready to smile.

Donna : I see. And what did you learn from your heroes?Sandy : First of all, I tried to do the same things as they did. They used to do different things with joy, and my heroes gave their time

and talents to ensure that all us girls were learning at all times.Donna : It sounds very interesting. Do you still have contacts with your heroes?Sandy : Yes, I do. We meet from time to time and talk for many hours. I found out that my way of learning was similar to theirs. I

always share with the girls what I know and work hard for them.Donna : Has girl scouting changed your life and if yes, in what way?Sandy : My life became completely different. I was inspired by my heroes to be a strong and capable woman. I gained a lot of

confidence and strength. Now I have been a member of the Girl Guides for 30 of my 36 years. I think, it is because of my heroes whom I admire.

UNIT 4 : LESSON 5 SELF-CHECK

LISTENING AND SPEAKING7a. Listen to the interview and answer. Is it about

a. a nomadic lifestyle or b. learning a different culture?

Interviewer : Welcome to our radio program. Today we are talking to a person who had an exciting learning experience. His name is David Brown. David, thank you for coming to our studio. And we would like you to share your recent experience with us.

David : Well, I'd like to thank you for inviting me to your program. I'm really delighted to share my unique experience with the audience. This experience I'm going to talk about is related to Mongolia.

Interviewer : Wow, I've heard it's a nomadic country, isn't it? David : Yes, it is.Interviewer : What were you doing there exactly?David : I was volunteering, actually, it was a nomadic project. 40 percent of the Mongolian population lives in the

countryside, so these people are modern nomads, so to say, and they raise animals.Interviewer : What animals do they raise?

David : Sheep, goats, cows, horses, and in some parts of the country camels and yaks. I lived with one nomadic family and learned how to look after animals such as goats, cows, yaks and horses.

Interviewer : Sounds very interesting. I've never seen yaks by the way. But you mentioned earlier your experience of volunteering in Mongolia was unique. Could you tell us why?

David : Right, it was truly unique because Mongolian nomads still follow their ancient way of life through personal experience and traditions of raising animals. It was a completely different lifestyle. And the other thing is that it seemed to me I was part of nature.

Interviewer : I see, you felt you were very close to nature.

David : That's right. Nowhere else have I had such feelings. Interviewer : What else would you like to say?

David : Well, in fact I was fully involved in the host family life. So I enjoyed helping with animals, making dairy products, playing with children and especially riding horses.

Interviewer : What a wonderful project! As I can see you learned some very important things. It's learning a different culture and, in a way, it's a good example of living in the global world.

any idea what to treat them with?Meggie : Mm. Let me think. How well do you know them? Do they have any preferences?

probably likes: something easy, not very heavy, but delicious. How about fish or chicken for the main meal instead? Not fried, but just nicely baked? With a lot of baked vegetables.

Iveel : That sounds really good. I've got some chicken, and a little fish. Ah well, I'll make chicken. And what about vegetables?Meggie : Yeah. How about a nice green salad?

3a. Listen to the conversation and answer. How many people are talking?

Iveel: Our classes usually start early in the morning, so I often skip my breakfast. That's why I need something filling for lunch. I usually go to fast food places. A lot of people say that this kind of food isn't healthy, but compared to our school canteen they provide a variety of food. I usually go for chicken sandwiches and small salads, preferably vegetable salads. In the evening I have a big dinner with my family. We usually have some meat, chicken or beef with some rice, and different salads.

Meggie: I don't have a particular preference for food: I actually eat anything. Breakfast is very important for me, so I always try to have a good breakfast: omelettes, fried eggs with bacon, and some toast. If I have nothing in the afternoon at school I usually come home for lunch. I love cream soups and usually cook vegetable or mushroom soup. In the evening I have something that doesn't take long to cook and some sausages, or pasta and some plain yogurt or milk.

Alex: I love different foods: Chinese, Korean, Italian, Thai, but what I really love is Indian food when it's not very spicy. I don't often eat out because it's expensive for me. So I bought a good cook book and am now trying to learn how to make some simple Indian meals. My breakfast is very simple: some fried eggs or a sandwich. I don't usually have time for lunch. That's why I have a big dinner. Generally, I try to avoid fatty food: I cook meat with a lot of vegetables. And I love lots of fruit so for dinner I often have a fruit salad.

LESSON 5 SELF CHECK LISTENING AND SPEAKING7. Listen to the radio program and answer. Is 'junk food' good or bad?

Reporter: Today's topic is about food and health. In particular, we are going to talk about junk food. We’ve invited the nutritionist from the Center of Food and Health. Tom Bridge. Welcome to our program!

Mr. Bridge : Thank you!Reporter : Ready to eat foods have already become part of our life. They are especially very popular among young people.

Let's start our talk with a very simple question: What is junk food?Mr. Bridge : Junk food is a word used for some foods that have few or no nutrients. Common junk foods include salted snack

foods, like chips, candies, most sweet desserts, fried fast food, such as hamburgers and hot dogs and carbonated drinks.

Reporter : So, they are not healthy, but nevertheless many people like them.Mr. Bridge : Oh, yes. They have some good things, such as fat, sugar and salt - most of the things we need to get energy. But

when you eat them too much it is not good for your health.Reporter Could you tell us a little bit more about what is particularly unhealthy? What's wrong with junk food?Mr. Bridge : First of all, it may have too much fat. Especially junk foods such as hamburgers, pizza, fried chicken and chips

usually contain lots of fat. Too much fat will cause people to put on weight and get very fat. This is not good for the heart and it can cause various diseases. Junk food also contains too much salt as well. There's a lot of salt already in foods such as bread, breakfast cereals, biscuits and cakes. So people are getting more salt than they need when they eat junk food. Too much salt is also unhealthy for the heart.

Reporter : Oh I see. It's too bad. Anything else about junk food?Mr. Bridge : It also has too much sugar. And this makes people become fat, which is bad for the blood and may cause other

diseases and bad teeth.Reporter : What should we do? Not eat it at all?Mr. Bridge : It's probably OK to eat junk food sometimes! But we should look for foods that are low in fats, salt and sugar. For

example, choose grilled fish and chicken rather than fried, fish burgers instead of beef or grilled lean beef burgers, and vegetarian pizza and pizza with seafood instead of fatty meat type pizzas.

Reporter : OK. Then we (fades .. .)

P Naidan: Actually, I started writing when I was a school boy. There was a literature club at our school. School clubs were very popular at

that time.

Reporter: Are these clubs still popular now?

Reporter: Oh, what do you do there?

P Naidan: Well, various activities. Once a week we have our club meetings. Famous writers and poets are invited to our meetings to talk

about different genres.

Reporter: What else do you do?

P Naidan: Lots of other things. Newly published books are reviewed. A young poet contest is organized every year. We also help children

who are interested in writing poems.

Journalist : Hello, where do you come from? Musician : Mongolia.Journalist : Oh. It’s the first time I've met someone from Mongolia. You came here to take part in the competition, right?Musician : Yes. I've come to the festival and competition as a member of the International Morin huur Association.Journalist : A Morin huur Association?Musician : Yes. You know the morin khuur is a bowed stringed instrument, a symbol of Mongolia.Journalist : Is that so and what does it look like?Musician : Like any other stringed instrument except the scroll which is carved into a horse head.Journalist : Sounds interesting. Where did it originate from?Musician : There is a legend about a shepherd named Namjil the Cuckoo. He was given a flying horse as a gift and every night he

would ride it to see his beloved girl. There was a woman who was jealous of his beloved girl. She had the horse’s wings cut off and so the horse fell from the sky and died. So the shepherd created a musical instrument, the morin huur. It was made of wood, horse skin and hair.

Journalist : What a moving legend!Musician : You think so?

Journalist: Yes, I do.Musician: I'd like to give you a model of a morin huur. It's a small present to remember the story I told you.Journalist: Thank you very much. Musician: You're welcome.

LESSON 5

SELF CHECK LISTENING AND SPEAKING

9. Listen to the conversation and answer the question. What is Deegii's dream?What does she admire Vanessa Mae for?

Reporter: Deegii, thank you very much for accepting our invitation and agreeing to give an interview.Deegii : You're welcome. It's my pleasure to share my thoughts with listeners. Reporter : It would be interesting to know why you took up the violin?Deegii : Oh, it's a long story. When I was in kindergarten, teachers from the Music Conservatory were scouting for potential musical

talent. They tested for musical skills, especially checking if our hands and fingers would be good for playing a musical instrument. They picked me as a potential musician, and my mother and family thought it would be very prestigious for me to go to the Music College, so they encouraged me to take up the violin.

Reporter : Do you have violinists you especially like or look up to?Deegii : I am classically trained. My teachers all studied in Russia, which has produced many of the best classical musicians in the

world. I personally adore Paganini, who was one of the most brilliant violin players in history. My dream is to feel the same as Paganini felt about music, how he possessed the violin and was possessed by it.

Reporter : How do you think classical violinists compare with fusion violinists like Vanessa Mae, who is so popular worldwide?Deegii: Yes, fusion violinists like Vanessa Mae are popular. I like her music and I think that she's very talented. As for me, I play the

violin, which I still think of as a great classical instrument, so I play classical music. But I have emotions, as we all do, and I get inspiration from many sources. I use the violin to express those emotions the best I can. I admire Vanessa Mae for introducing the violin as not just a classical instrument, but also one that can also play contemporary popular music. I wanted to reach out to all, not just Mongolians but also international audiences. I enjoy playing these tunes tremendously. They come from my heart, as I remember them from my childhood. I am very happy that so many different audiences like them as much as I do.

Reporter: They said that your debut album was folk music rewritten for the violin. Tell us more about it?Deegii : As I have said, I have given folk melodies a modern treatment, but the melodies are still the same. The backing and

arrangement are modern, and to top it all I play them on my Yamaha electric violin, which has a really different sound to the classical violin. The CD has seven tracks. The first four (High in the Mountains, Melody of the Heart, Migrating Birds, Theme from Uran Khas / Waltz) are Mongolian classical compositions, truly Mongolian in character. The others are contemporary, especially written for me.

Reporter: Thank you very much for your interesting interview.

Deegii: Best wishes to all of you.

2a. Listen to the conversation and answer. Is it abouta. effect of global warming or b. just weather?

Alex : Recently I've read a lot about global warming on a website. It seems to me that our earth is in enormous danger.

Iveel : Why do you think so?

Alex : Well, global warming changes the climate all over the world so weather becomes unpredictable.

Iveel : What is global warming?

Alex : It is an increase in the average global temperature. Scientists think that industrial activity has increased the surface temperature of the

Earth and the amount of some gases in the air. These gases trap heat in a process called the Greenhouse Effect.

Iveel : What will happen if global warming continues?

Alex : Sea levels will rise. This will be a problem for areas near the sea coast. The weather will change and there will be more storms. Some

regions will have more problems with water. Tropical forests will die and some animals will become extinct.

Iveel : Have you found some examples of the effects of global warming?

Alex : Yes, I have. For example, Glacier National Park in the US. Some glaciers are melting and there will be none by 2050. Also

Niagara Falls is being affected by global warming. The temperature has been higher than in the past, so this forms mist in the

nearby areas.

Iveel : What will happen to people's lives?

Alex : Well, more people will suffer from diseases like malaria.

Iveel : Oh, it sounds very frightening. What should people do to stop global warming?

Alex : I think, we need to save energy. It seems very simple, for example, turn off the lights, TVs, computers and mobile phones. And

also we need to take buses to schools and reduce greenhouse gases. Buying recycled things would help as well.

UNIT 8 : LESSON 4 SAVING THE EARTH

2a. Listen to part of the press conference and answer. What is the main goal of the Greenpeace movement?

Conference chair : Today we have gathered here to talk about the Greenpeace movement. We have invited an environmental specialist Dr. Stephen Watt who is going to answer your questions and give you information on this movement. So we are ready to answer your questions. First question, please.

Journalist 1 : Would you introduce the Greenpeace movement? What is it about?

Dr.Stephen Watt : First of all, Greenpeace International is a nongovernmental organization that was founded in 1971 in Canada. Its Headquarters now are based in Amsterdam, Netherlands, and there are 28 regional offices working in 45 countries. The regional offices work autonomously under the supervision of Greenpeace International. Greenpeace has a staff

of 2,400 people and 15,000 volunteers all over the world. As you see it's a very big movement.

Journalist 2 : What activities has it done worldwide?

Dr.Stephen Watt :Greenpeace has a range of activities but its main focus is on environmental issues such as climate change affected by global warming. In fact, it was founded to reduce the effects of global warming. Greenpeace calls for industrialized countries to give funds to developing countries to reduce effects of this problem. In 1993, Greenpeace became one of the first parties to advocate sustainable development scenario for climate change mitigation.

Journalist 3 : What has been the main role of Greenpeace in recent years?

Dr.Stephen Watt :According to sociologists Marc Mormont and Christine Dasnoy, Greenpeace played a significant role in raising public awareness of global warming in the 1990s. The organization has also focused on chlorine free carbon because of both its global warming potential and its effect on the ozone layer. So it has started a 'Greenfreeze' program and developed environmentally friendly refrigerator technology. The United States Environment Program awarded Greenpeace for its outstanding contribution to the protection of the Earth's ozone layer in 1997.

Journalist 2 : What will happen in the future if the global warming issue is not solved?

Dr.Stephen Watt :Well, the consequences of global warming would affect people's lives greatly. All glaciers would melt and our Earth would dry out, so we would face several serious problems such as deforestation, desertification, air pollution (fades .. .)

LESSON. 5 SELF-CHECK LISTENING ANDSPEAKING

8a. Listen to John Perry and answer. What is he talking about?

John Perry: Recently I spent few days on the Ohio River. I was there long ago so it was strange to see a place that has changed a lot. First, I couldn't understand what was different. I spent a day exploring the area and realized it has turned into a very much polluted place. Factories and apartment buildings have replaced cornfields and green trees which used to be there before. There was a lot of waste all over, the river water was so dark, the river banks looked terrible and the air was full of some kind of gases.

We need to think how we can protect our natural environment. We have to keep it clean. So people need to care for nature by not throwing waste all over the place, not polluting rivers and lakes, and as well as saving water and energy.

UNIT NINE LEARNING AND EDUCATIONLESSON 2 APPLYING TO A UNIVERSITY

2a. Listen and answer a or b. What are these people talking about?a. Applying for universityb. Getting information about university

Applicant : Hello. I'm a high school student. I'll finish school in 2 years. I'm planning to apply to a university. I've got some questions to ask. Would you give me some advice?

J. Spencer : OK. First thing you should know is that university applications are different from each other. I hope the list of academic information I am giving you will be useful. They are a secondary school report, academic grades, test scores, and an essay. Also you may submit a letter of your teacher's recommendation with your application.

Applicant : Thank you. Now my next question: How should I fill in the application form? J. Spencer : You have to include information about your school activities, talents or abilities, and personal qualities. This is called

non-academic information. You need to fill in all the information neatly and correctly.Applicant : I see. What school activities should I include?J. Spencer : There are specific questions like 'Are you involved in non-academic clubs and organizations?' or 'Do you do any

volunteering jobs?' You should answer them. If you are an active member of clubs or students' organizations it would be your advantage.

Applicant : What advice would you give to fill in the application form?J. Spencer : In order to be a good applicant you should give full and correct information. The universities won't accept

incomplete applications. Also never forget to sign your name because many applicants miss that.Applicant : What is the deadline to apply for submission?J. Spencer : Most universities offer spring and autumn terms. So send your application before the deadline. However, the earlier,

the better. In any event, you shouldn't apply after the deadline.Applicant : Thank you for your advice. You’ve been a great help. J. Spencer : Good luck!

LESSON 4 BEING INTERVIEWED

2a. Listen and choose a, b or c. Who does Badral want to be?a. An engineerb. A technicianc. A software programmer

Interviewer: So, let's get started. Please, tell me about yourself and why you chose this university.

Badral: My name is Badral. I'm finishing my high school and I want to apply to your university. I want to be a software programmer. I've been looking for an appropriate university. I've chosen your university because you have a good program.

Interviewer: What are your hobbies and interests?

Badral: Like many other boys I like to play computer games. Also I like solving logic problems. They are interesting, even though they seem to be challenging. Nowadays, I'm taking up guitar lessons too. It's really cool.

Interviewer: Thank you. Why do you want to be a software programmer?

Badral: I'm good at designing and modeling. I think, in the future people will use computing networks even more than they do now. I would create my own software program to ease the work of many people. So, I want to be a software programmer because I think it's one of today's hottest jobs.

Interviewer: If you were accepted at this university, what would you do in your free time?

Badral: If I were accepted at university, I might join a students' club where I can meet others who have the same hobbies as me. And I think, I would make a lot of friends too.

Interviewer: Great! Now tell me how your school teachers would describe you.

Badral: Well, they might say that I'm active and serious, but not always. Even one of my teacher said to me, "If you were an animal, you would be a monkey because you are curious about everything new."

Interviewer: What are some of the things you would change?

Badral: Personally, I would change myself for the better.

Interviewer: That's pretty good. Thank you.

UNIT 9 : LESSON 5 SELF - CHECK

LISTENING AND SPEAKING7a. Listen to the interview and answer the question. What's the main idea?

a. personal information b. academic achievements

Interviewer: OK. Let's start. First, please tell me about yourself.

Alex: My name is Alex. I'm finishing secondary school and I've applied to your university. I want to be a financial analyst.

Interviewer: Please describe yourself. What five adjectives would describe you best?

Alex: I'd say that I'm serious and punctual. My friends and my teachers say that I get along with others well. I try to be persistent in

achieving my goals. And I'm not good at showing my emotions.

Interviewer: Good. And my next question is "What school activities were you involved in?

What activities did you enjoy the most?"

Alex: I've been a member of the students' council since I was in junior school. I've organized many school activities. For example, we

organized a clean-up day, and tree planting. Earth day was the most interesting for students. We also collected old paper and

recycled items, old clothes to donate to those who are less fortunate. Also I helped our social workers to organize different

activities as well.

Interviewer: What are your favorite subjects at school? Why?

Alex: My favorite subjects are Maths and Science. They are the most important for me to continue my studies. Computer class is the

easiest of all. I can do quite a lot on the computer, because I learned from my father.

Interviewer: That's interesting. My last question is about your goals.

Alex: Until I was in the 10th grade I didn't know how to set my goals. One day our teacher taught us how to do it. Then I realized that

goals and dreams are different. Since then, I've tried to set my goals more realistically. So, my goal is to enter your university and

to become good at analyzing financial actions.

Interviewer: Thank you for the interview. Good luck.

Alex: Thank you. Goodbye.

2a. Listen to the conversation and answer. What is it about?

Badral: The Internet can be a real pain at times.Alex: Apart from the spam, and the viruses, the Internet has got to be the greatest thing that ever happened in communications. It is fast,

effective and convenient.Badral: The spam and the viruses are fairly easy to fix; the real problem with the net is the amount of information that gets posted.Alex: But I find most of the information very useful. You can find out about anything you

want to know. Some sites are informative.Badral: Yeah ... how do you know which site is informative?Alex: That's easy, just check the references. A good web page should be informative. Badral: Ah but you said 'should be informative.' That's the whole problem. How do we know what is a 'good' web page?Alex: Well, I suppose, you just go through all the pages that come up, when you do a search. Badral: I bet I can find you a dozen pages that say, usual things, things we know well.Alex: That's where you have to use your judgment. Badral: But, that's what I go to the Internet for; to find out the information so that we can make a judgment.Alex: But the Internet isn't just for getting that sort of information. E-commerce has become

a boom industry because you can buy, or sell, anything on the Internet.Badral : Yeah! And you can get ripped off too. I know people who have used their credit card on the Internet and had to cancel the card to

stop it being used illegally.Alex : That has to be a rare case. There are real, safe ways to surf through the Internet and find out where that can't happen.Badral : Don't you believe it? Using credit cards over the Internet can be dangerous. Are you comfortable with using your card?Alex : Yes. I find it quite practical and economical.Badral : No way. What do you think of the alternative sites, and the blogs?Alex : I don't know. For me their information is fairly ineffective so I never trust them.Badral : Yeah, I find it difficult to believe them too. How do we know what is safe and what isn't?Alex : Aw! Now, you're just trying to confuse me!

LESSON 4 TEXT MESSAGING

2a. Listen to the conversation and answer. How many people are talking? Meggie: Hi, IveelIveel: Hi, Meggie. What are you doing? Meggie: Just a moment. Let me finish my chat.Iveel: Oh. Go ahead. Meggie: OK. I'm done. I was writing a text message to my Mum.Iveel: Good. Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you. Meggie: No problem. It's not a big deal. Chatting takes some time to wait for a reply. You know, chatting is the same as

instant messaging.Iveel : Do you often message home? Isn't it easier to call home?Meggie : Yeah it is, but not the same. You know it's cheaper to text messages than to call.Iveel : I agree. Text messaging is different from the making a call.Meggie : Yup.Iveel : You can also send a text message from your cell phone. Then it is similar to chatting or instant messaging, isn't it?Meggie : Yes, you just write short texts.Iveel : I also write messages rather than call. Phone calls are more expensive you know. Meggie : Sure. Making phone calls for me is even more expensive. Making a call is quite different from instant messaging. Although

talking to my mum and hearing her voice is much nicer. Oh, I miss her ....

UNIT 10 : Lesson 5 : 5a

This online correspondence system allows you to send and receive messages from anywhere in the world at the simple click of a

button. E-mail works exactly like regular letters, only there is no hold up from the postal service and it's completely free of charge.

The Internet also simplifies shopping. Most companies today employ the use of online stores. Using your credit card, you can

meet all of your shopping needs from the convenience of your home. The fact that the Internet is always accessible is another

great advantage of this modern technology. Its 24/7 approach to service is extremely beneficial to all of its users. However, the

Internet may publish your personal information. Most websites today require information like your name, address and even credit

card information. With hackers and crooks on the net, your informationcan occasionally be accessed by other people. Wasting

time is another drawback of using the net.
