Unit 5-Conversation 1

Mark: Have you got your tickets for the play Kate: What play

Mark: The play which OUDS are producing. You know, the play I'm in at the Oxford Playhouse.

Kate: Oh, that play! Well, er ...

Mark: What about you, Janet

Janet: What's the play called

Mark: Waiting for Godot, by Samuel Beckett. You are coming, aren't you

Kate: Beckett

Janet: Why not

Kate: Well, um, I'm sure you'll be totally brilliant, Mark ... but I wish I could understand the play. It doesn't make sense.

Mark: If only you were more patient, Kate. Beckett's a fascinating writer. You'll come though, won't you, Janet You really ought to see something like this at least once during your stay in Oxford.

Janet: Well, I'm not sure.

Mark: Oh, come on! Please!

Jan et: But if Kate doesn't understand the play, there's no way I'll be able to follow it.

Kate: Do you want to go

Janet: Well, I love going to the theatre, and I'd really like to see Mark acting. And actually, yes, I think I should see a play by Samuel Beckett.

M a rk: Good! So you're coming, Janet. I wish you'd come, too, Kate. It's a really good performance. Kate: Well, OK, but I'm only doing it because you're in it. When is it on

Mark: Next Tuesday to Saturday.

Janet: How about going Friday night

Mark: That's great. But you'd better get your tickets soon, because we're expecting a full house.

Unit 5-Conversation 2

Kate: Well, what did you think

Janet: It was ... very interesting.

Kate: Ididn't have a clue what was going on. Absolutely nothing happened! I don't know why I bothered coming to see it

Janet: I thought Mark was brilliant.

Kate: Yes, I did too, of course ...

Janet: But I wish I had read the play before I saw it. If only I had known the story, it might have been easier to follow it. How long do you think Mark will be

Janet: I guess he needs to get changed first. He said he'd join us as soon as possible.

Kate: Here he is. Hi Mark!

Mark: Hi, what did you think How was I

Janet: It was ... very challenging.

Kate: It was so-so.

Janet: But you were brilliant! Well done.

Kate: You were awesome, Mark. Everyone adored your performance. Darling, you were to die for!

Mark: OK, OK, don't exaggerate. I wasn't that good! Anyway, I've got some great news!

Janet: Tell us!

Mark: We've started talking about next term's OUDS play.

Kate: What's it going to be

Mark: Hamlet, by William Shakespeare!

Janet: Great! And who's going to play Hamlet Kate: Don't tell me, let me guess!

Mark: To be or not to be, that is the question! Janet: I don't believe it. You're going to play Hamlet

Kate: Come on, let's celebrate ... from Beckett to Shakespeare. Today Oxford, tomorrow, Hollywood!

Unit 5-Outside view

Part 1

Viewer 1 So, what do you guys want to watch Viewer 2 Uh, I don't know. What's on

Viewer 3 How about a documentary on the History Channel I like watching history programmes.

Viewer 2 I don't really like watching the History Channel.

Viewer 1 How about a baseball game From 1973 Viewer 3 No thanks! How about a cooking show Viewer 1 Yeah, I love watching cooking shows. Viewer 2 What

Viewer 1 I do!

Viewer2 Uh, I don't like cooking shows. Uh, let's watch some music videos.

Viewer 1 This is awful!

Vie we r 3 Can you see what's on another channel Viewer 1 Yeah, sure. What channel

Viewer 3 Uh, anything but this.

Voice-over These television viewers are trying to decide on a programme to watch, by clicking on channels, and seeing what's on. This practice is known as channel surfing. In the past, it was not difficult to decide what to watch on TV. There were only three channels to choose from. Cable television has changed all that. There are so many channels, and so many different kinds of programmes to watch, many viewers find it difficult to decide what to watch, even when they are watching by themselves. This business traveller doesn't like anything. Many people like a particular type of programme. Speaker 1TV programmes I like watching are cooking shows, um, comedy shows.

Speaker 2 I usually watch dramas, murder mystery programmes, quizzes, comedies.

Speaker 3 I like watching talk shows.

Speaker 4 I guess of all my favourite TV shows I'd like news programmes.

Speaker 5 I like to watch soap operas and news. Speaker 6 I like to watch comedy shows.

Speaker 7 Well, I like good drama, I like a lot

of the cop shows, um ... I like a lot of the science fiction shows and good history. Speaker 8 TV programmes I like to watch are like sports, automotive. Discovery, that type of thing. Part 2 Voice-over Cartoons have always been popular. This brother and sister are watching their favourite DVD. Mum Turn that down! Boy OK, Mum. Voice-over He, he turns it down. Now the volume is too low. For couples, deciding what to watch can require some very careful negotiation. Woman Oh, look! Pretty Woman is on! I love watching that movie. Joe Pretty Woman ! Oh, no, not Pretty Woman ! Woman Joe, you know it's my favourite movie. It's on in five minutes. I'll be right back. I'm just going to get some coffee. Joe I don't like watching that kind of movie. Plus I don't like Julia Roberts. Actually, I really hate that movie. Voice-over Joe realizes that there's a basketball game on tomorrow night. He wants to ask his friends over to watch it. Woman You're so sweet to watch this with me. I know you probably don't want to see it again. Joe Oh, sure. I don't mind. There's nothing else on anyway. Not tonight, Viewer 1 Hey, look. Swordfish is on. John Travolta and Halle Berry

Viewer 2 No, I've already seen that twice.

Viewer 3 I hate that movie.

Viewer 1 OK. How about The Matrix

Viewer 3 That's OK. But I've seen it too many

times.

Viewer 2 Yeah, me too. But I love that movie.

Viewer 3 You guys, there's nothing on.

Viewer 2 Yeah, you're right.

Viewer 1 Hey, how about we go out and get some pizza

Viewer 3 That's a good idea. Turn that off.

Mum I told you to turn it down. Now I'm going to

turn it off.

Woman Oh, it's over. I just love that movie! Thanks

for putting up with it again. I know it's not your

favourite.

Joe That's OK. But tomorrow's my turn. I'm

asking the guys over to watch the basketball game.

Woman Oh, that's fine. I won't be here anyway

remember I' m going to visit my sister

Joe Oh, yeah. That's right.

Voice-over The business traveller seems to have found

what he was looking for, a programme that puts him

to sleep. And that's all for tonight, folks! Be sure

to tune in tomorrow!

Unit 5-Listening in News Report

A new craze is sweeping the city of Toronto, Canada. More and more board game cafes are opening in different neighborhoods. In some of cafes, customers pay an hourly rate to play tabletop games; in others a flat fee allows them to play for an unlimited time. On top of the fee, the cafes also require customers to purchase food and drinks.

Most cafes offer hundreds of games, varying from classics like “Monopoly ” and “Battleship ” to European strategy games like “Settlers of Catan ” and “Agricola ”. They also have staff members to teach customers the rules of the game if necessary. This means that players are more comfortable exploring games that they haven’t played before.

People enjoy going to these cafes because they can try out the games. It is cheaper than buying the games and then deciding they don’t like them. Also, it’s like having a party with your friends —but not at your own house! 1. What do we learn about board game cafes from the news report 2. Why do people enjoy going to board game cafes Passage 1 Announcer1：Thanks for the news update. And it's Thursday evening, time to start planning

the weekend, and time to hear from Jenny

with our weekly update, What's On in

Town. Announcer2：Thanks, Mark.

Announcer1：What ’s it going to be Jenny A weekend in front of the television, or out on the

town Announcer2：Definitely out on the town, Mark. It's

a fun-filled weekend, with something for everyone. For anyone who likes classical

music, there's Beethoven's Ninth Symphony in the Westgate Concert Hall on Friday evening.

Announcer1：That's the one with that catchy tune

Announcer2：I don't think the Southbank Choir will

let you join in with a voice like that! Tickets are￡10, with concessions for

students and senior citizens, and it starts at 8 pm.

Announcer1：OK, and what's on at the cinema

Announcer2：I ’ve got a couple of suggestions. For

those of you who like Chinese movies,

there's a retrospective on Zhang Yimou's

films beginning with The House of the

Flying Daggers at the Arthouse Cinema in

North Street. If you haven't seen, it’

s amazing. It's on at 7 pm on Saturday

night. And other films showing next week

include Hero, and Raise the Red Lantern.

Tickets are ￡12, with the usual

concessions.

Announcer1：How about a Hollywood blockbuster Announcer2：Not sure Td call it a blockbuster, but

the next part of Lord of the Rings is

showing at Globe Cinema. It's on Friday

and Saturday at pm, tickets ￡8. Announcer1：OK, Lord of the Rings, that’s a great

series. Now, how about something more

cultural

Announcer2：There's a fabulous exhibition at the

Smith Museum called, “The Art of

Venice”, with a collection of paintings

from all over the world. It's open from

10 am to 6 pm on Saturday and Sunday and

entrance is free.

Announcer1：OK, sounds good. And what about the music

scene

Announcer2：Friday night is open mic night at the

George Inn. It you want to hear some

great music, it starts at pm Friday

night. But if you want to find out what

it’s like to perform in front of a live

audience, book a slot with the

organizers and they 11 sing, play, dance,

whatever ... Nice friendly atmosphere,

but make sure you've got a five or ten

minute act before you offer to try it out

onstage. No entrance fee, but you’ll

need to buy a round or two of drinks. Announcer1：Anything else

Announcer2：Yes, it's jazz at the Jam Factory on

Saturday night from 10 pm, with the Steve

Reid Trio playing Afro- Cuban jazz. With

tickets at ￡20 I guess the Jam Factory

is going to be the coolest place in town.

So I advise you to book in advance. Announcer1：Sounds like a great weekend, thanks

Jenny.

any cultural activities

Janet, there's something Kate and I wanted to discuss with you. Some people in college are organizing charity events this term. We've decided to get involved. Janet: Raising money for charity Right. In China, people raise money for charity but students don't usually do that. Mark: Students often do that here. Anyway, we're thinking of doing sponsored punting. Janet: Sponsored punting! What's that Kate: Sponsoring is when people pay you to do something — like run a long distance. So people would be sponsoring students to punt. Janet: What a great idea! I'd love to join you! Mark: That's why we're telling you about it. So that's decided then. Let's make a list of things we need to do. Kate: I'll do that. One of the first things we should do is choose the charity. Mark: Yes. And choose a day for the event. And we need to design the sponsorship form. I've got one here. Kate: That looks fine, but we must change the wording. Who wants to do that Mark: I'll do that. What have we got so far Kate: Choose a charity. Also a day for the event. Change the wording on the sponsorship form... Um ...

Mark: It was next to mine, you chained it up! Kate: Someone's stolen it! Oh, how could they! Mark: Oh, Kate! Kate: How could someone have done this! The creep!

Unit 6-Conversation 1 Janet: What are you reading, Kate Kate:Alice in Wonderland, by Lewis Carroll. Do you know it Janet: I've heard of it, yes, but I've never read it. It's a 19th century children's story, isn't it K a te: That's right. It's very famous. It's set in Oxford. It starts with this young girl sitting on a river bank. The interesting thing is, the author, Lewis Carroll, he was an Oxford professor and he used to have tea with the girl's family on this river bank. Ja net: Oh, that's fascinating! I'll put it into my diary. Kate: Is that what you're writing I know you've been keeping a diary all the year. Janet: It's been a great year. I've had such a good time — so lucky to have Mark and Kate as friends. Feel I've been doing well with work. Much happier about asking questions in tutorials. Janet: My screen's gone dark. Mark: You're using the battery, remember. It's run out, obviously. Janet: It can't be the battery. It's still charged. Oh no it's still black. Oh dear, I hope it's nothing serious. I haven't backed anything up recently. Kate: That's not like you, Janet. Janet:I know, but I lost my memory stick. I really should have backed things up. How stupid of me not to do that! Supposing I've lost everything! Mark: Let me take a look. The power is still on. And also the operating system still seems to be working ... I think it has to be the graphics card ... But maybe that's not the problem ... Janet: If only I'd backed things up! Kate: Relax, Janet! We'll take it to the computer shop this afternoon. I'm sure it'll be OK. Janet: I hope so. Unit 6-Conversation 2 Janet: Tell me about Alice in Wonderland. Kate: I tell you what, I'll read it to you. Kate: Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank and having nothing to do: Once or twice, she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, "and what is the use of a book," thought Alice, "without pictures or conversation" So she was considering in her own mind (as well as she could, for the hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid) ... Janet: Kate, Mark, where are you going You've got my laptop! Kate: It's all right, Janet, we're taking it to the computer shop. We'll be back soon. Mark: It's not like Janet to forget to back up her work. Kate: She should have been more careful. Janet: It was stupid of me, I know! Stupid, stupid! Janet: Oh! It was a dream! What a relief! Kate: You were talking in your sleep. Janet: What was I saying Kate: "Stupid, stupid." M ark: I've sorted out your computer. Janet: Have you Oh, thank goodness! What was the problem Mark:It was the graphics card, as I predicted ... Janet: Is that what it was! I'm so relieved! Thanks, Mark. Kate: He's great, isn't he Janet: Yes. So are you, Kate. Kate: You're such a good friend. Unit 6-Outside view Computers are a very important part of our lives. They tell us about delays to transport. They drive trains, analyze evidence and control buildings. Did you know that 60 per cent of homes in Britain have got a PC (a personal computer) For many young people, playing computer games is their favorite way of spending spare time. Computers are a very important part of most areas of life in Britain-libraries, the police and in school. But they are becoming more important in our homes as well. They’ll even control the way we live-in “smart homes” or computer-controlled houses. The smart home is now a real possibility. It will become very common. A central computer will adjust the temperature, act as a burglar alarm and switch on lights, ready for you to come back home. And of course you will be able to give new instructions to the computer from your mobile phone. So if your plans change, your home will react to match. Many homes have got lots of televisions and several computers. The smart home will provide TV and Internet sockets in every room, so you’ll be able to do what you want whenever you want. If the temperature outside changes, the smart home will adjust the temperature levels inside. The computer will also close the blinds when it gets dark or to stop so much sun from entering a room. And if you want to eat when you get home, the computer will turn the oven on for you! Are computers taking over our lives In a survey, 44 per cent of young people between 11 and 16 said their PC was a trusted friend. Twenty per cent said they were happier at their computer than spending time with family or friends. Another survey found that people in Britain spend so much time on the phone, texting and reading emails that they no longer have time for conversation. What do you think about that Unit 6-Listening in

He’s the biggest, nastiest (S4) outlaw who’s ever lived!” A few weeks pass (S5) uneventfully. But one afternoon, a local cowhand comes running through town (S6) yel ling, “Big John is coming!

He steps up to the door, orders the poor barkeep inside, and demands, “I want a beer NOW!” He strikes his heavy fist on the bar, splitting it in half. (S9) The bartender nervously hands the big man a beer, hands shaking. He takes the beer, bites the top of the bottle off, and downs the beer in one gulp.

Don’t you hear Big John is coming?” Task3: A View of Happiness Script Dr. Smith has proposed a reasonable, if perhaps somewhat oversimplifies, view of happiness. According to his theory, happiness might be described as a state if balance. And when human or certain animals achieve that balance, they rend to remain in that condition in order to repeat the happy feeling. To illustrate this, we may study two magnets. When their positive and negative poles meet, they are comfortably joined, and they remain there. In other words, they have attained a balance or state of happiness. If on the other hand, one of the poles is reversed, and positive pole is presses against positive pole, there is resistance, instability, imbalance a state of unhappiness. Animals with some degree of intelligence seem to find happiness in reinforcement. Once they have gained one or more of their goals such as food, and water, they learn to repeat the actions that led to satisfaction of those goals. This repetition or reinforcement produces a state of balance or sense of happiness. According to this theory, only animals with a
