In today’s program, we ask the question, “What is beauty?” Do men today really like women with blonde hair and blue eyes? And do women like the James Bond look – tall, dark and very masculine, or do they like something different now? Are ideas about beauty changing? We went out to see what you really think …I = Interviewer; W1 = Woman 1, etc.; M1 = Man 1, etc.Part 2I: Excuse me, ladies. Do you have a moment?W1: Yes?I: Just a quick question.

I like masculine faces …I: Can I show you some photos?W1: Sure.I: So which of these guys do you like best?W1: Hmm, Sean Connery. He’s definitely the best-looking man here. And he’s tall, isn’t he? Yeah … I like tall men. And I like a man with a beard.I: Uh-huh. What about you?W2: Mm. I’m not sure. I like this one. What’s hi s name?I: It’s Gael Garcia Bernal. He’s a Mexican film star.W2: Yeah? Well, he’s got quite a feminine face and he’s very good-looking. I like his eyes –he’s got dark brown eyes and I like men with dark eyes and black hair. But I think it’s more in thep ersonality … in the smile … so I like this one best. Will Smith. He’s got a really nice smile.I: Thank you. And here’s another lady. Excuse me. Have you got a moment?W3: Well …I: I’m doing a survey about the changing face of beauty. Can I ask you some q uestions?W3: Yes, OK. Yes.I: I’ve got some photos here. Can you tell me which of these people you like? Do you think any of them are good-looking?W3: Well, I don’t really like any of them …I: No? Er, well, so what sort of man do you like?W3: What sort of man do I like? Well, my husband’s over there. I think he’s goodlooking. I like his hair. I love guys with red hair.I: Which one? The one looking in the shop window?W3: No, he’s over there. He’s wearing a white T-shirt and he’s talking to … that blond e woman …Excuse me …I: And then I talked to some men to find out if they really prefer blondes – just like they did 50 years ago. Do you think it’s true that men prefer blondes, sir?M1: What? No, not at all! Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes and ages. Look at this photo of Judi Dench. She’s lovely. She isn’t young, but she’s got beautiful grey eyes and she always wears beautiful clothes. She looks kind and intelligent.M2: Yeah, she does. But I still prefer blondes, you know … like Scarlett Johansson.She’s lovely … slim, blonde hair, blue eyes –that’s the sort of woman I like.M1: Scarlett Johansson, slim?M2: Well, OK … but she’s not fat.M1: No, that’s true …I: OK, guys. Thanks for talking to us …ViewingScriptsV = Voice-over; W1 = Woman 1, etc.; M1 = Man 1, etc.V: All over the world, festivals bring people together. But why do people go? For the music? The food? The fun and games? We went to Bestival in the Isle of Wight, England to find out. But the first question is – where do we sleep?M1: I ... I’ve got a beach hut up here to stay in, and I’ve got the key.V: One man said it was like sleeping in the back garden.M2: It’s like opening your back door, going down to the end of your garden, getting in your shed with your baby and wife, and then calling it a holiday.V: You can stay in a hut, but most people here sleep in tents. There are a lot of different people here – families, young people, older people. We asked: Why do so many different peoplecome to festivals?W1: Well, I suppose it gives everybody a chance just to be themselves, and just to be free and be away from their normal jobs.W2: People will respect each other and have ... um … sort of some of those old-fashioned traditional values, but actually values that everyone really likes.M3: The thing I always think about festivals is they’re just playgrounds for grownups.V: And, of course, there’s one reason everyone’s here: the music. This really is a festival for all the community, young and old mixing together. In the tea tent these women are having agreat time. Why do they go to festivals?W3: The community getting together, the young mixing with the older people. We make cakes; wedo pop festivals; we’ll go anywhere, do anything.V: So, if there’s one answer to the question, why are you here? One thing that everyone talks about is this: being together.Speaking for communicationRole-playScriptsConversation 1W: OK … What do you feel like watching?M: Hmm. I … I don’t know really.

The latest data from a survey show that in 2010, 89 percent of all adults watched television in their free time. Spending time with family and friends was the second most popular activity at 84 percent, listening to music came next at 76 percent, and shopping was fourth at 71 percent. Truly, the most common leisure activity in the UK has been watching television. The average viewing time is 25 hours per person per week. Many television programs are about wildlife, animals, holidays, cooking and gardening. All these things are much valued by British people. The second most popular activity in Britain is visiting or entertaining friends or relatives. Actually, in the survey, those aged 25 to 34 reported spending time with friends and family as their top activity.Besides, many British people like to listen to music. Among those aged 16 to 24 spending time listening to music was selected as their top activity.Younger people tend to have different hobbies from old people. According to the survey, comparing the 16 to 24 age group with those aged 55 and over, the activities which were reported less frequently as age increased were listening to music; surfing the Internet and emailing; doing sports and exercise; going out to pubs, clubs or bars; and going out to the cinema. For example, people aged 16 to 24 spent more than 3 hours a day using a computer while those aged 55 and over spent only 1 hour and 12 minutes. Again comparing the youngest and oldest age groups, the activities which were reported more frequently as age increased were reading and gardening.Q1: According to the survey, what percentage of British adults watched TV in their free time?Q2: Which age group would be the most likely to visit their friends and relatives?Q3: What does the speaker say about listening to music as a leisure activity for British people?Q4: According to the survey, how are leisure activities related to age?Passage 2Scripts and answersPeople joke that no one in Los Angeles reads; everyone watches TV, rents videos, or goes tothe movies. The most popular reading materials are 1) comic books, movie magazines, and TV guides. City libraries have only 10 percent of the 2) traffic that car washes have. But how do you explain this? A yearly book festival in west Los Angeles is 3) constantly “sold out” year after year.People wait half an hour for a parking space to become 4) available.This outdoor festival, supported by a newspaper, takes place every April for one weekend.This year, about 70,000 people 5) took part in the festival on Saturday and 75,000 on Sunday. The festival 6) attracted 280 exhibitors. There were about 90 talks given by authors, with an 7) audience question-and-answer period following each talk. A food court sold all kinds of local foods, from hotdogs to ice drinks. Except for a $7 parking fee, the festival was 8) free of charge. Even so, some people take their own sandwiches and drinks to avoid the high prices of the food court.The idea for holding the festival in Los Angles was 9) put forward years ago, but nobodyknew if it would succeed. Although book festivals were already popular in other US cities, would people in this city 10) embrace one? “Fortunately, they do,” said one of the festival founders.。
