You can spend a lot of money, in shops from aristocratic* Knightsbridge* to democratic Marks and Spencer*, all of them anxious to receive travellers’ cheques in almost any currency. There are many hotels at your service, and your chambermaid may well be able to talk to you in your own language —though probably not in English, Restaurants are here by the hundred.

in London, from China to Argentina*, though you may have a bit of a job finding good English food.

Part 2 Retelling

It was Monday morning. Betty left home early that day because she was going to start work at an office. She was only sixteen and this was her first job. Unfortunately, the traffic was so dense that she was a few minutes late When she arrived at the office. When she entered the office, she saw Mr. Crump, her boss, speaking to the people in an angry voice. She was very afraid and didn’t dare to say anything.

Later that day, she found out what had happened, As a rule, Mr. Crump came to the office at about 9:30, because he lived a long way out in the country and came up by train every day. That morning, however, he happened to catch an earlier train, and when he arrived at the office, he was greatly annoyed to see that no one was working. All the clerks were standing around, smoking, laughing and telling jokes.

Section 4 Supplementary Exercises

Part 1 Listening Comprehension Entertainments in London

Exercise: Listen to the passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions.

1. When was London known as “Swinging London”?

2. Why are so many people attracted to visit London?

3. Why is the British Theatre world-famous?

4. Where are the films shown in a large number of cinemas from?

5. What does “take your choice” mean here when the concert is mentioned?

1.C

2. A

3. D

4. B

5. D

6. C

7. B

8. D

Tapescript:

You come, of course, from all over the world, attracted by the comparative cheapness of London and its relatively new reputation as a good place to have fun —a reputation which really only dates from t he mid 1960’s, that era* of “Swinging London,”* of pop stars and fashion photographers and dress designers.

There’s certainly no lack of entertainment. The British Theatre is world famous, and offers everything from Shakespeare to West End comedy*. There’s a large number of cinemas presenting films from all over the world. Every night of the week there are concerts. Classical or pop, take your choice. And of course night clubs will be happy to take large quantifies of cash from you in return for the illusion* of being sophisticated* and perhaps slightly wicked*. When it rains (and it will rain) there are museums and art galleries to give you shelter—and they’re free!When it’s fine, take a boat trip along the River Thames, downstream to Greenwich* or upstream to Hampton Court*.

You may be exhausted by London; you may be cheated in London; you may not be able to get a drink when you want one, thanks to the ridiculous licensing laws; you may get wet and catch a cold; but you’re not likely to be bored.

Part 3 Video British Pub Tradition Under Threat

Exercise:

1. Why are pubs important for British people?

For hundreds of years, British pubs have been at the center of social life. They are the places where people can go for a pint of beer and lively conversation.

2. Why is pub culture changing recently?

According to Bridget Walsh, people tend to go restaurants instead of pubs and they buy cheap booze in supermarkets and drink it at home.

3. What makes British pub business go downward?

They are the poor economy, a ban on smoking inside and high taxes on beer consumed at pubs.

4. How does Stuart Mills, an entrepreneur, view the rapidly deteriorating economic conditions?

He sees the economic downturn as an opportunity and runs an Internet service to get more people into pubs by allowing them to have their mail delivered to

their local pub.

5. Do you think British pubs will dry up someday?

I’m afraid not. The British love of beer and the rare British summer day is a good reason for them to have a pint of beer in the pub.

Tapescript:

For hundreds of years, British pubs have been at the center of social life. The place to go for a pint of beer and lively conversation. But Britain’s pubs are under threat. The poor economy, a ban on smoking inside and high taxes on beer consumed at pubs are all putting pubs under pressure. Bridget Walsh has been in the business for 42 years. She says pub culture is changing.

“People aren’t going into pubs the way they used to years ago. They tend to go restaurants. They tend to buy cheap booze in supermarkets and drink indoors, because people have entertainment indoors these day,” she said.

It’s not just indoor entertainment people are looking for. Pubs—once smoke-filled rooms—are no longer. Smokers have to go outside these days. That’s hurt business too. “If they can’t have a pint and cigarette, you might as well drink at home,” Walsh adds.

At the annual Great British Beer Festival in London, there are hundreds of beers, bitters, ales and plenty of enthusiasts. One might almost believe that pubs will be forever. But Neil Williams from the British Beer & Pub Association says the problem is serious.

“Fifty-two pubs are closing every week here in the U.K., and that’s a big increase and, if we don’t take action, we’re going to lose a lot of our much-loved community pubs,” he said.

Williams says taxes on beer served in pubs rose by 20 percent in 18 months. All in all, he says it’s a difficult time.

“Unfortunately, the smoking ban coincided with a lot of other very adverse trading conditions: rising costs, we had rapidly deteriorating economic conditions, plus hug tax increases, so we’ve likened it to a perfect storm,” he said.

Stuart Mills, an entrepreneur, sees the downturn as an opportunity. He runs an Internet service that allows customers to have their mail delivered to their local pub.

“What we’re really trying to do is to do two things, to get more people into pubs more often, but also really to help pubs cement their position at the heart of their local communities,” Mills explains.

Tastes here are changing though. Wine bars, a recent trend, are taking away some

of the business for pubs. But the British love of beer and the rare British summer day will mean, pub owners hope, that business will never totally dry up.

He doesn’t have a car or a TV set. He doesn’t have many clothes and he doesn’t care about money when he makes a lot of money, he gives it away. He doesn’t smoke and he works from six in the morning until late at night, seven days a week: he is paying back to America his debt as a citizen. When he went to parties as a young man, people complained that all he talked about was the dangers of cars, and how bad car design caused the deaths of so many people each year. After he graduated from Harvard, he published an article entitled “Unsafe at Any Speed,” which was about a car called Corvair. Later, he made a big attack on the car industry and showed how many deaths in car accidents were because of badly-made cars. He said new laws were needed to make cars safer. In 1966, because of Nader’s work, a law was passed to make car safer. After this success, Nader became interested in something very different. This was the quality of meat and the amount of meat that is put into foods like sausages and hamburgers. A year later, in 1967, again because of Nader’s work, a law was passed to ensure that products like sausages and hamburgers contained the right amount of meat. In 1968, three more laws were passed because of Nader’s efforts. The first was to

Part 2 Listening for Gist For hundreds of years man has been fascinated by the idea of flying. One of the first men to produce designs for aircraft was Leonardo da Vinci, an Italian artist who lived in the fifteenth century. However, it was not until the eighteenth century that people began to fly, or perhaps it would be better to say float, across the countryside in balloons. The first hot-air balloon was made in April 1783 by the Montgolfier brothers in France. In the following years many flights were made by balloon. Some of the flights were for pleasure and others were for delivering mail and for military purposes, such as observation and even bombing. However, in the late nineteenth century, airship s superseded balloons as a form of transport. Airships came after balloons. The first powered and manned flight was made by a Frenchman, Giffard, in September 1852. His airship, powered by steam, traveled twenty-seven kilometers from Paris to Trappes at a speed of eight kilometers per hour. However the days of the airship were numbered as the aero- plane became increasingly safe and popular.
