Listening InTask 1: Malls in the U.S.Malls are popular places for Americans to go. People like malls for many reasons. They feel safe because malls have private security guards and sometimes even police stations. Parking is usually free, and the weather inside is always fine. The newest malls have beautiful rest areas with waterfalls and large green trees. The largest mall in the United States is the Mal of America in Minnesota. It covers 4.2 million square feet. It has 350 stores, eight nightclubs, and a seven-acre park! There are parking spaces for 12,750 cars. About 750,000 people shop there every week. The first indoor mall in the United States was built in 1965 in Minnesota, but now malls are like town centers where people come to do many things. They shop, eat foods from all over the world, and see movies at theaters. Some people even get their daily exercise from the new sport of “mall walking.” Others go to malls to meet friends. In some malls, people can see a doctor or a dentist and even attend church. In a word, people can do just about everything in malls.1.A2.C3.B4.D5.DTask 2: Online ShoppingW: Hey, Don, online shopping is so popular nowadays. Where is a good place to buy electronics online?M: Hmmm. I usually go to . Sometimes I use eBay.W: Really, I’ve never used either of those. What are they all about?M: Well, eBay is an auction site. People put their stuff up for sale, and then other people log in and if they’re interested in one item, they bid on it. If you want to bid, you put in the amount that is the most you’re willing to pay. Then, by a certain deadline, the highest bid gets the item.W: Interesting. Then, if your bid is the highest, how do you pay?M: Well, you can usually send a check or money order. Or, you can use a system called PayPal which lets you pay by credit card online.W: Hoe do you get your stuff?M: Well, after the auction, eBay puts you directly in touch with the seller, and then you arrange for them to send it to you. You can check it out at .W: I sure will. And how about that Amazon place you said?M: is like an actual store, just online. They sell just about everything, either new or used items. I find the prices are usually a good deal cheaper than in a store.W: That’s what I’ve heard. I think that buying some things online, like books, or DVDs, is a really good idea, but I could never buy clothes online.M: I know what you mean. Things that you need to see, touch and feel first, before you buy, are hard to buy online. But then again, there’re lots of people who buy everything online!W: Do you think it’s safe? I mean, I’ve heard that people can steal your credit card number over the Internet.M: Well, I think that is does happen, but it’s very rare. All in all, it’s pretty safe.W: And what if you want to return something?M: I think that’s probably easier if you bought it in a real store. But, these online stores and sellers often have very good return policies. You just need to package it all back up again.W: A pain in the neck if you ask me!1. It’s an auction site where people put their stuff up for sale, and thenother people log in and bid on it.2. They can send a check or money order, or use a system called PayPalwhich lets them pay by credit card online.3. The online store puts the buyer directly in touch with the seller, andthen the buyer can ask the seller to send the items over.4. She could never buy clothes online.5. You just need to package it all back up again.Task 3: Beware of bargains!Ever since ancient times, people have always loved a bargain. If they think they are getting a “good deal” they will grab it up, whatever it is. Some people buy clothes they will never wear, or furniture they have no need or room for. Some even buy cars they can’t afford simply because the auto dealer is having a sale. There is an old saying: “You get what you pay for.”And another saying: “If a price seems too good to be true, it probably is.”Sometimes stores feature poorer quality goods at prices that are not really reduced. Some stores offer “unbelievable bargain prices” on unit costs, then add on hidden charges so that the final price is the same as the regular price —or sometimes even higher. There are bargains to be had, but the safest way is to find a retailer that you can trust, and to be cautious. The Romans had a saying: “Let the buyer beware!” The idea is as true today as it ever was. People have always loved a bargain. If they think they are getting a “good deal”, they will grab it whatever it is. But you get what you pay for. Sometimes stores feature poorer quality merchandise at prices that are notreally reduced. Some stores offer “unbelievable bargain prices” on unit costs, then add on hidden charges so that the final price is the same as or even higher than the regular price. There are bargains to be had, but the safest way is to find a retailer that you can trust, and to be cautious.Task 4: An AnnouncementWelcome to our Gift Shop! Time to start thinking about gifts for your friends! The best flowers, cards, stationery, dolls, oriental gifts, art prints and posters, hand-made gifts, and woodwork are arriving daily. Remember, all the gifts are carefully chosen by top professionals! You can get all your favorite gifts at a discount of twenty per cent here at Gift Shop!IV. Speaking OutNow Your TurnKatherine: Peter, where are you off to?Peter: Just going to the bookstore.Katherine: Oh, the photo shop is next door to it. Would you mind picking up my pictures for me?Peter: All right. Want anything from the bookstore?Katherine: Well, could you pick up a stapler, please? My papers are in a mess. Peter: No problem.Model 2 Could you do me a favor?Now Your TurnNicole: Hey Robert, would you take a look at this for me? My computer is making a funny noise.Robert: Sure, let me have a look. Hmm, seems like something had gone wrong with your hard drive.Nicole: Really? Well, then could you do me a favor? I need to get it fixed right away. Would you give me a ride to the store?Robert: No problem. But it is still under warranty?Nicole: I’m afraid not. It’s several years old.Robert: Let’s hope the repairs are not too expensive.Model 3 I was wondering if you could possibly…Now Your TurnSusan: I wish I hadn’t gone to town this morning. I lost my purse at the shopping center.Michael: I’m sorry to hear that. What are you going to do now?Susan: I guess I’ll go back to check at the Lost and Found. And I was wondering if you could possibly lend me some money for the busfare. Every cent I had was in my purse.Michael: I’ll be glad to. Here’s ten dollars, or do you need more?V. Let’s TalkJack: There certainly are a lot of CDs on sale here today. I hope the new Linkin Park is on sale. What were you thinking of picking up?Jane: Well, you know me, Jack. I love classic music. I was thinking of either the Beatles or Elvis’ “Greatest Hits.”Jack: Jane, when are you going to get with the times? Classic Rock is not classic; it’s just old.Jane: Yes, well, Pop Rock all sounds the same to me. For me, the Classic Rock really stands out. It’s what started it all.Jack: It’s also been played a million times. Don’t you get tired of it?Jane: No, never. Oh, there’s a salesperson; let’s ask him what they have on sale.Salesman: Can I help you?Jack: Yes, my friend and I were looking for some CDs. We were hoping they would be on sale. My friend is looking for some older selections likethe Beatles or Elvis’ “Greatest Hits.” I was really hoping you’d havethe new Linkin Park on sale, but if not, I’m also looking forNickelback.Salesman: Well, I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that all of the CDs you have asked for are on sale. The bad news iswe have just sold out of Elvis’ “Greatest Hits”, but we can order onefor you.Jane: (to her friend) Sold out of Elvis! That must mean he’s pretty popular. (to the salesman) You need to order it in? How does that work? Salesman: Well, if you give me your telephone number, when we get it, one of our staff will give you a call. Then you can some and pick it up. Itshouldn’t be more than a week.Jane: Okay, well, I’ll take the Beatles CD right now, and you can order the Elvis for me. I’ll give you my phone number.Jack: And I will take the new Linkin Park for now. I’m afraid I only have enough for one CD.Salesman: The sale lasts till the end of the month. In the meantime, I’ll get your CDs for you, and I’ll take down your number for that Elvis order.Boy, he’s always a popular seller!Jane: I know!Column A Column BJack 2.3.4.8Jane 1.5.6.7For ReferenceAB, persuade A to buy the jeans.I’m telling you, the jeans will look great on you.A, give your impression of the jeans.They’re nice, but I think I’m going to look around a little first.B, push A to buy the jeans.We only have a few pairs left.A, try to beat down the price.They’re just too experience. If you give me a discount, maybe I’ll be interested.B, make an offer.Since these jeans seem exactly specially made for you, I’ll give you a five percent discount.A, bargain with B.Make it ten percent, and I’ll take them.BB, ask A whether he/she has done something wrong with the Walkman.Well, Sir/Miss. What exactly did you do with the Walkman when you got it home?A, complain and explain the problem.Why? I did nothing. I put it some batteries and turned it on, but it just wouldn’t work.B, offer a suggestion.Well, I’m afraid we don’t have any more of these models in stock. Would you mind changing it for another type?A, ask if you can get a refund.Not if it costs more money. Can I just get my money back?B, Answer A’s question and make an offer.I’m afraid it’s out store policy that we can only exchange it. But for only twenty dollars more, you can get a new model.A, give your opinion on B’s offer.But that’s what you told me about this model last week!VI. Furthering Listening and Speaking Task 1: Does complaining work?Many people tolerate bad service or inferior products rather than make a complaint. They feel that complaining won’t do any good. In fact, they’re wrong: complaining works because companies don’t want dissatisfied customers. If you have a complaint, do something about it right away. The longer you wait, the harder it will be to get your complaint settled. First, you can complain to one of the clerks. If they cannot help you, then ask politely to speak to a manager. Also, many stores have Customer Service representatives whose job is to solve problems in customer relations. These people are eager to assist because companies realize that dissatisfied customers can damage their reputations. You should always insist on your own rights as a customer. You have the right to receive a product you ordered in timely manner and in good condition. With airlines, you have the right to be on the flight you’ve booked. You can also expect a discount if you receive less than you have agreed upon—a hotel room with a view of a brick wall instead of an ocean view, for example.1. tolerate complaint2. do any good dissatisfied customers3. longer harder settled4. Customer Service solve problems5. the right in a timely mannerTask 2: Credit CardsBecause credit cards have so many advantages, their use has become widespread. Unfortunately, however, credit cards are major sources of problems to society as a whole. First, there is the issue of fraud. Stolen credit cards add to the cost of all merchandise as companies write off these losses by adding to the cost of all goods. Second, there are the personal misfortunes. Credit card companies charge exceptionally high rates of interest (about 20%), but because the cards are so easy to use, many people but beyond their ability to repay. Also, there are often too generous limits to the amount ofcredit one can have; as a result, many people run up such high debts that they go bankrupt. Currently, it is easy for people to own many credit cards. When one credit card is “maxed out” they simply switch to another. Although individual credit cards have limits, the number of credit cards is not limited. People with ten credit cards, each with a $5,000 limit, have $50,000 of credit, even though they might not be able to pay all of their bills. This can easily lead to bankruptcy. Perhaps people should be given an absolute credit limit set as a certain percentages of their imcome.1.

Q1: What speed can an avalanche reach within five seconds of taking off? Q2: According to the passage, under what circumstances may an avalanche occur? Q3: What are skiers advised to do to avoid being caught in an avalanche? Q4: Why does the ski patrol use explosives?
11
• As long as skiers stay in the official ski areas, they don’t have to worry. “ We control the hazard, so it is unlikely you’ll get caught,” explains Mike, a snow safety expert.” We do that by pressing the snow together to make it more solid, and we use explosives to make an avalanche move or to test an area to see if it is unstable.” This work can be dangerous, so ski patrol members look out for each other and keep the public at a safe distance.
10
• An avalanche occurs when one entire area or layer of snow slides off another layer below it. When a layer starts to slide, anything on top is carried along, and the avalanche picks up whatever lies in its path as it moves down a slope, including rocks, trees and people. When a person starts to travel across an area of unstable snow, their weight can start a slide.

Unit 7 Weird, wild and wonderfulListening to the worldSharingScriptsF = Finn; M1 = Man 1, etc.; W1 = Woman 1, etc.Part 1F: I like being in the countryside, but I’m always happy to come back to the city. How about you?M1: I actually really love the countryside. I grew up on a farm.W1: I love being in London. I have loved my time in London, but as I’m getting older, I increasingly want to visit the countryside more and more.M2: It’s nice; it’s, it’s quiet – you know, you can forget about the city.W2: I love it. I was brought up in the countryside.M3: I love being in the countryside. I love the quiet; I love the fresh air. It’s great.W3: I love being in the countryside. Um, I’ve come, I come from Hertfordshire, so, although it’s not … where I live isn’t actually directly in the countryside. If you drive for 10 minutes, you’re in it and it’s beautiful.W4: I love the countryside. It’s a nice change to living in London and I enjoy taking weekends out. Um I enjoy camping.M4: I enjoy the countryside be cause I’ve,I’ve lived there for about 37 years. And particularly I enjoyed (enjoy) gardening – growing a lot of vegetables.Part 2F: The thing I like most about being in the countryside is watching animals and birds. How about you? Do you like wildlife?W1: Well, I am, er, an animal lover. Er, I’m a vegetarian as well.W4: I like wildlife and animals. Er, since I was a little girl, I’ve always really liked foxes for some reason. And I know a lot of people don’t, but foxes have always been my favorite animal.M1: I love wildlife. Er, I really, sort of, enjoy things that you don’t see every day –um … enjoy sort of very exotic wildlife that I haven’t seen before.M4: I like, um, watching them on the telly.W2: I think, I think animals are living beings and should be treated as so – should be treated with respect.M3: I like, um, big cats. They’re very graceful;they’re very beautiful. Um, and um, something I’ve, I’ve always just had a fascination with from an early age. Er, I also quite like large snakes. A friend of mine used to keep them.W3: My nephew and niece have a guinea pig, which I love.Part 3F: Are there any animals you’re frightened of?M2: Snakes and scorpions. Um, just ’cause I know that usually one bite could mean that’s the end.W3: I don’t like spiders. It’s not really an animal – but I hate spiders.M1: I am very scared of spiders.

I love them all.M3: There’s nothing that scares me –that I haven’t got any memories of animals scaring me as a child.W4: I’m quite scared of sharks. I don’t really like the sea and so whales and um, animals such as that, I don’t really like. Um, I suppose because it’s the unknown, I just find it quite scary.ListeningScriptsPart 1Welcome to Save the Planet where we talk about the world’s environmental problems. Now, did you know there are more than six billion people on the planet, and by 2050 there might be more than nine billion? People are living longer and healthier lives than ever before, but a big population means big problems for the planet.Part 2Let’s look at three of the most important problems. The first problem is water. Many people in the world can’t get enough water. But in some countries we use too much. A person in Gambia, Africa, for example, uses much less water than someone in the United States. In Gambia, one person uses four and a half liters of water a day. But in the US it’s 600 liters. And to make the problem worse, the deserts are gettingbigger. The Sahara Desert is one of the hottest places in the world, and is already the largest desert. But each year it gets bigger than before, so it gets more difficult to find clean water. Our second problem is the animals. There are more people on the earth than ever before. This means we use more space. And for the animals this means that there is less space than before. One example is the Amazon Rainforest. It has the highest number of plant and animal species in the world, but it’s getting smaller every year. People are destroying the rainforest to make more space for houses, roads and farms. In the last 10 years we have destroyed more than 150,000 square kilometers of forest –that’s an area larger than Greece! So in the future, many plants and animal species will become extinct. And the last problem on our list, but not the least important, is the weather. The world is getting warmer. The ice in Greenland is melting faster than ever before. Also sea levels are rising. This means that soon some of the world’s most important cities, like New York, London, Bangkok, Sydney and Rio de Janeiro might all be under water.ViewingScriptsJL = Joanna Lumley; T = Tura; KS = Kjetil SkoglieJL: The far north. Fairytale mountains. It’s just fabulously beautiful. The land of the magical Northern Lights is somewhere I’ve longed for all my life. As a little girl I lived in the steamy heat of tropical Malaysia. I used to yearn to be cold. I’d never even seen snow. But my storybooks were full of snow queens, and now I’m enteringthat world. This is the journey I’ve always dreamt of making. I feel I’ve come into another world now. No people except you and us. And if we’re very lucky we might see the elusive Northern Lights. I pack up things that are going to be essential on every trip. So in here I’ve got, for instance, oil-based pastels; and I’ve got a lovely little drawing book, but I’ve got that colored pages so that you can draw in different colors; a lovely old guidebook –it’s called The Land of the Vikings. It’s got beautiful old maps. Look at that. But if it wasn’t for one item in my case, I wouldn’t be on this journey at all. This is the book: Ponny the Penguin. This is when I first heard of the Northern Lights. And there was this picture which haunted me of a sort of rippling curtain and a little tiny penguin. This is not your average taxi rank at the station. I’m in the hands of Tura Christiansen and his team of 11 sled dogs. Good morning. I’m Joanna.T: Tura.JL: Tura. How nice to see you, Tura.T: Yes.JL: These are wonderful dogs.T: They like to … to, er …JL: They like to run?T: Yes.JL: The weather near Troms? is uncertain. But local guide, Kjetil Skoglie, promises me we’ll track down the lights even if it takes till morning. I can’t see anything, Kjetil.KS: No, it’s … it’s nothing yet. You just have to be patient.JL: OK, so I just wait here.KS: Yeah, you just wait here.JL: Yeah.KS: Good luck.JL: Thanks, Kjetil. I stand in the pitch-black by the side of the fjord, and wait. Look, much brighter there. Oh, something’s happening there. Oh … Look up here! Look what’s happening here! Look at that! Oh … Oh!Look at this! And it just keeps changing and changing.

Sea turtles travel 3,000 miles a year. And when they lay eggs, they go back to the place where they were born. So they have a great sense of direction. New York taxi drivers drive 37,500 miles a year. They know the fastest way to any address in New York. But sea turtles and taxi drivers do not have the best sense of direction!B: So it must be the butterfly.C: The winner is the monarch butterfly.

The females are even half asleep when they have their babies.B: Wow.C: Human babies usually sleep about 18 hours a day, but only in their first few months. So sloths are the winner.

The most popular places are Thailand and India. Have you got any idea of where you’d like to go?M: Well, we were thinking of flying to a small island where we can enjoy some special local food.Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place?Conversation 2M: Have you ever tried diving in the sea? No words can describe the beauty of the sea. You lose track of time down there!W: No, I’m kind of frightened. I mean I hear all these stories about getting sick from going up too fast to the surface and dangerous fish.Q: What makes the woman scared of diving?Conversation 3W: Many people are concerned about the rising costs of fuel.M: I think they are a little short-sighted; they should look on the bright side. With higher costs, people will be forced to use less energy. We can thus save more energy, which is good for the environment.Q: What does the man think of the rise of fuel costs?Conversation 4M: I’ve never been to the mountains before. I’m not much of an adventurer, you know.W: Well, join us. It’s great spending some time with friends and just being close to nature. And when you come back, you’ll be a new person, relaxed and ready to study again.Q: According to the woman, what can the man benefit from going to the mountains? Conversation 5M: Look! The sun is shining. We haven’t seen the sun for ages. It’s been raining for a week! It’s much too beautiful a day to waste indoors reading, cooking or cleaning. W: You are right. Let’s make the most of it.Q: What are the man and woman probably going to do?Long conversationScriptsW: I just saw a great movie about the true story of Christopher McCandless’ trip to the Alaskan wilderness in 1992. It was so inspiring! His love of nature was so beautiful.M: Well, I read about his story. He was foolish and just threw his life away!W: Why would you say that? It’s a shame that he died, but at least he lived doing what he loved. Can you imagine living in Alaska alone, eating only the plants you can gather and the animals you can hunt?M: No, that’s just it! He died in the wilderness because he thought nature was magical and kind. He needed to realize that nature is powerful and full of risks! Christopher was completely unprepared for the many dangers of the Alaskan wilderness.W: Like what? He found shelter and he had a gun to hunt!M: He did not use his map of the area – there was a boat where he could get help only a quarter of a mile away! H e didn’t have any emergency food supplies! Most of all, he had no emergency communication equipment. Any one of those three things would have saved his life!W: Yes, he should have been more prepared, but I still admire what he was trying to do.M: It’s no t romantic! Five famous outdoor specialists were interviewed. They all said he should have lived. He died because he was unprepared!W: Still, I admire his spirit for trying!Q1: What are the man and woman talking about?Q2: What can we learn about Christopher?Q3: What does the woman think about Christopher taking the trip to Alaska?Q4: Which of the following is NOT mentioned as something that would have saved Christopher’s life?Passage 1ScriptsWithin five seconds of taking off, an avalanche can move at 80 miles an hour, so people rarely have time to run out of the way. But these days, avalanches don’t often strike skiers at official skiing zones because the ski patrol makes sure the skiing areas are safe.An avalanche occurs when one entire area or layer of snow slides off another layer below it. When a layer starts to slide, anything on top is carried along, and the avalanche picks up whatever lies in its path as it moves down a slope, including rocks, trees and people. When a person starts to travel across an area of unstable snow, their weight can start a slide.As long as skiers stay in the official ski areas, they don’t have to worry. “We control the hazard, so it is unlikely you’ll get caught,” explains Mike, a snow safety expert. “We do that by p ressing the snow together to make it more solid, and we use explosives to make an avalanche move or to test an area to see if it is unstable.” This work can be dangerous, so ski patrol members look out for each other and keep the public at a safe distance.Mike and his colleagues also dig holes in the snow to study the layers. After they go back, they enter measurements into a computer; a special software creates a chart showing how the different layers are holding up. If an area looks risky, the ski patrol closes it.Q1: What speed can an avalanche reach within five seconds of taking off?Q2: According to the passage, under what circumstances may an avalanche occur?Q3: What are skiers advised to do to avoid being caught in an avalanche?Q4: Why does the ski patrol use explosives?Passage 2Scripts and answersAnna was awarded a special day out for herself and her family after taking part in a competition run by a magazine in April, beating over 2,000 people who 1) participated in the event.Anna’s wild day out will include a special tour of the city’s nature park, with exclusive 2) access to areas of the site that are not usually available to the public.
