Come this way.Mark: Let's have a look at the menu.Mark: Thank you.Janet: Thank you.Waitress: The specials are on the board.Kate: So, what sorts of food do you like, Janet?Janet: Well, I like spicy food. And I'm not very fond of raw food! What would you recommend?Mark: Why don't you try the chicken curry? That's nice and spicy.Janet: What's in it?Mark: Chicken cooked in tomatoes and onions with Indian spices.Janet: I'll try it. Do we all choose a selection of dishes to share or only one dish per person?Mark: Usually one dish per person.Kate: Or the moussaka looks good.Janet: What's it made with?Kate: It's made with lamb and eggplant. It's a Greek dish.Janet: How is it cooked?Kate: It's baked in the oven.Janet: Mm, that sounds good too.Kate: And as a starter?Janet: What's minestrone soup?Mark: It's an Italian soup with vegetables and pasta. It's delicious!Janet: OK, I'll have that.Kate: Waitress?Waitress: What can I get for you?Kate: Well, for the starter, can we have two minestrone soups, and for the main course, one moussaka and one curry, please. What about you, Mark?Mark: I'll have the prawns with garlic and the chilli con carne. And could you bring us some water, please?Waitress: OK.Mark: Thank you.Waitress: Thanks.Janet: What's chilli con carne?Mark: It's a spicy Mexican dish with beef and beans. It's very hot!Conversation 2Janet: That was great! Except I don't like cold water. I usually drink hot water. Kate: Hot water? We never drink hot water except with tea. Let's have a dessert.What would you like, Janet?Janet: Any suggestions?Kate: Well, why don't you try the apple strudel? It's an Austrian dish. It's made with apple, pastry and spices.Janet: No, I'm not so keen on pastry. ...What's a chocolate brownie?Mark: It's a kind of chocolate cake.Janet: How is it made?Kate: It's made with flour, eggs and butter...Mark: And lots of chocolate!Kate: You'll love it.Janet: What kind of ice cream is there?Kate: I'll ask ... Excuse me ... What flavor ice cream do you have?Waitress: Strawberry, vanilla and chocolate.Janet: I'll just have a fruit salad, I think.Mark: And Kate, what are you going to have?Kate: Same for me.Mark: Could you bring us two fruit salads, and a chocolate brownie?Waitress: Sure.Unit 3Conversation 1Mark: Hi, what're you doing?Janet: Oh, nothing much ... Well, I'm just doing this quiz here in the newspaper. Mark: Let's have a look then.Janet: Here. It's called, "How much do you know about memory?" I've just done it. Do you want to have a go?Mark: OK, might as well. I'm not busy.Janet: Right. Look, I'll read the statements. Then you have to answer "true" or "false". Ready?Mark: Yea.Janet: OK. Physical exercise improves your memory. True or false?Mark: True, I suppose. It sounds like the right answer.Janet: You're right; exercise does improve your memory. Next statement: 30 per cent of people have a visual memory.Mark: That sounds about right. True?Janet: No, wrong, I'm afraid. In fact, 60 per cent of people have a visual memory. Mark: Really? Actually, I've got a pretty good memory.Janet: Have you? OK ... Next one ... When you're tired, it's more difficult to remember things.Mark: That's true, obviously. I can't remember a thing when I'm tired.Janet: Correct! If you do one activity for a long time, your memory will improve. Mark: I'm not sure ... True?Janet: Actually, it's false.Mark: Oh!Janet: Eating fruit and vegetables can improve your memory.Mark: I read something in The Times about that. True.Janet: True, it says here.Mark: Oh, no! I've got a lecture. I'd forgotten. I'd better get going!Janet: Oh, Mark! What a good memory you have!Conversation 2Kate: You're looking a bit down, Janet. What's up?Janet: Well ... I'm finding studying at Oxford quite hard.Kate: You're telling me! There's so much work!Janet: It's not the amount of work, but everything's so different. In China, generally we have large classes, we don't have tutorials. And mostly, our teacher tells us what we should do. So I'm not used to asking questions or discussing things. I find it difficult.Kate: You have to memorize a lot, don't you?Janet: Yes, but I'm good at that.Kate: You're lucky. There's so much to remember studying law! I have difficulty sometimes, I really do.Janet: Yes, well, we've been trained to do that. But we don't have so much training in critical thinking.Kate: What do you mean by critical thinking?Janet: Let me think ... I think it's giving your opinion and then justifying it.Kate: Yes, I suppose that's what our teachers have always encouraged us to do. Janet: I am getting better at it, I suppose.Kate: Hey! How about this? Let's pretend I'm your tutor. I'll make a statement. Your task is to examine it and then ask questions.Janet: OK.Kate: Everyone is capable of learning a second language. Go on, ask a question! Janet: Why do you say that?Kate: That's what the research tells us. Now ask another one.Janet: Can you give an example of some research?Kate: Um ... No! Look, I'm starving and I can't think at all when I'm hungry.Unit 4Conversation 1Kate: Oh, I must make a quick call. ...Jacky: Hello, Jacky Gordon speaking.Kate: Hello, can I speak to Abbie, please?Jacky: I'll see if she's in, can you hold on?Kate: Sure. ...Jacky: Hello? She's out, I'm afraid. Can I give her a message — er ... or I can ask her to call you back?Kate: Could you ask her to call me back?Jacky: Sure. Who's calling?Kate: Kate Santos.Jacky: Kate Santos, OK. Does Abbie have your number?Kate: Yes, she does.Jacky: I'll tell her you called.Kate: Thanks.Janet: Abbie? I know a girl called Abbie. She reads English, doesn't she?Kate: Yes, how do you know her?Janet: She has a tutorial just after me so we chat a bit. We get on really well. Kate: Yes, everyone likes Abbie. I think it's because she's really interested in people — she's a very good listener. She should be, she works for Nightline.Janet: Nightline?Kate: Oh, I haven't told you, I've joined it.Janet: What is it? I've never heard of it.Kate: Look, I've got a leaflet about it.Janet: So...Kate: It's a university helpline for students who are having problems. I'm training to be one of the people they can call to talk to.Janet: You mean, you're a volunteer?Kate: Yes.Janet: Oh, that's great, KateConversation 2Abbie: Hi, Abbie speaking.Kate: Hi, Abbie, it's Kate Santos.Abbie: Hi! I'm sorry not to have called you back. I've got a lot on at the moment. How's things?Kate: Fine. I just wanted to let you know I won't be able to come to the next training session.Abbie: Um ... It's quite an important session. Oh, can you hold on a moment. There's someone at the door. ...Abbie: Hi, I'm sorry, look, can I call you back later?Kate: Sure. What time?Abbie: Is three o'clock OK?Kate: Three's fine.Abbie: OK, I'll call you then. Speak soon.Kate: Bye.Abbie: Bye....Kate: Abbie's my Nightline trainer.Janet: You're saying she's your Nightline trainer! But she's still a student.Kate: Well, experienced students train new students, that's the way it works. Janet: Oh, I see.Kate: It's great! At the moment, she's training us in listening skills.Janet: Listening skills? What do you mean, listening skills?Kate: Um ... The ability to really listen to someone and make them feel you're listening. It's very important.Janet: I've never thought about that before.Kate: Yes, for example, one thing you can do is listen carefully and then repeat what someone says but maybe a little differently.Janet: So what you're saying is, repeat what someone says but maybe not the exact same words.Kate: Yes. You see, when you do that, you check you've understood and you show them you're really listening.Janet: So they know you've really heard them.Kate: Very good, Janet. I can see you've got it already! Hi ... how's it going?Unit 5Conversation 1Kate: Hi, Becky, how's it going?Becky: Good!Mark: Guys, look, can you help me with a problem?Janet: Yes, of course.Mark: The thing is, there's this girl I really like called Jenny Sparks. She's a Fresher, really stunning, reads history. I know her name because someone pointed her out to me, but I've never actually spoken to her. Do either of you know her?Kate: No.Janet: No, I don't know her. Mark, how can you like her if you haven't met her? Kate: It's because she's absolutely gorgeous, Janet.Mark: That's right! I want to ask her out, but first I've got to meet her. Got any suggestions?Becky: Guys! You want to order?Mark: Sorry.Kate: Three cappuccinos?Becky: Sure.Janet: Do you know anyone who knows her? You could ask them to introduce you. Mark: No, I don't, that's the problem.Kate: Are you matchmaking, Janet?Janet: What's matchmaking?Kate: Making introductions between people who might like each other. We don't do that here. How about just walking up to her and saying Hi? Why don't you do that? Mark: No.Kate: Why not?Mark: I'm not usually shy, but — she's so ... you know ...!Janet: Oh, Mark!Kate: Just believe in yourself, Mark. You're a great guy!Janet: I understand Mark completely.Kate: Well, it's the only way he's going to get to talk to her.Mark: OK, I'll give it a try.Becky: Solved the Jenny problem yet?Girls: Thank you.Janet: You'll be fine. Mark. She'll like him, won't she, Becky?Becky: Of course she will!Conversation 2Mark: Hey, guess what, guys, I've got a date with Jenny.Kate: You did it, you asked her out?Janet: When are you seeing her?Mark: Saturday. We're going to The Eagle and Child.Janet: Sounds great.Mark: Yeah! The thing is, I'm a bit nervous.Janet: Are you?Mark: Yes, I'm afraid I'll make a fool of myself. I could do with some more advice. Kate: Any ideas?Janet: Um ... I'm thinking.Kate: Well ... One thing is ... if you're nervous, it's easy to talk too much, so remember not to do that.Mark: Good point. I'll remember that.Janet: You should make her feel special. Show her you're really interested in her. Mark: I am really interested in her.Janet: Well, you should show her you are.Mark: That'll be easy! What else?Kate: It's a good idea to look good.Mark: That's pretty obvious!Kate: I mean clean clothes, Mark!Mark: Oh ... thanks, Kate! Any more advice?Kate: Yes, the most important thing is, just be yourself.Becky: How's it going, Mark?Kate: He's worried this girl won't like him.Becky: She'll love you! Ready to order?Unit 6Conversation 1Janet: So, are you looking for anything in particular?Mark: Maybe a T-shirt or a polo shirt.Janet: We could go into the covered market and have a look at the shops in there. Kate: And what about you?Janet: I need some cosmetics from the Body Shop on Corn market Street.Kate: And I'm looking for something to wear to Jenny's party tonight. But nothing too expensive. Anyway, look, let's go in here.Assistant: Can I help you?Kate: We're just looking.Mark: What do you think of this one?Kate: Hmm, it's OK, but I'm not sure green suits you. Do they have it in other colors?Janet: What size do you take?Mark: Medium, I guess. Oh, here's a nice polo shirt. I like the color. It's a bit small, though.Janet: Do they have it in a larger size?Mark: Yes, here we go. That's great.Janet: How much is it?Mark: Twelve pounds. That's not too bad. I'll buy it.Mark: I'll have this, please.Assistant: That'll be 12 pounds please. ... Thank you. ... And here's your shirt, and here's your receipt.Mark: Thanks.Mark: Look, I've really got to go. I'll see you at the party tonight.Kate: OK.Janet:Bye.Conversation 2Janet: OK, Kate. Now it is time to find something for you. What about this dress? Kate: Hey, that's lovely.Janet: Would you like to try it on?Kate: Yes, OK. Where are the changing rooms?Assistant: Just behind you.Kate: Thank you. ... What do you think?Janet: Well, it really suits you, but ...Kate: ... it's a bit big. Excuse me, do you have this in a smaller size?Assistant: What size do you take?Kate: Size 8, I think.Assistant: No, I'm afraid we don't. That's the last one.Kate: No, it doesn't really fit. OK, I'll leave it.Janet: Actually, I really like it.Kate: Why don't you try it on, then?Janet: OK. ... What do you think?Kate: Perfect. It really suits you.Janet: It's a bit expensive.Kate: Go on! You deserve it!Janet: OK, I'll have it. But I don't have enough cash. ... Can I pay by credit card? Assistant: Sure.Janet: Thank you.Assistant: Please enter your PIN. ... And here's your receipt.Janet: Thank you.Assistant: Thanks a lot.Kate: That was painless, wasn't it? But I still don't have a dress for the party. Let's try somewhere else.Assistant: Bye.Girls: Bye.Unit 7Conversation 1Janet: What time are your parents arriving?Kate: Eleven. Oh no, it's 10.30! I must clean up my room, it's a mess.Janet: Would you like me to give you a hand?Kate: Oh, yes, that would be great! ...Janet: So, what are they like, your parents?Kate: They're great. They're very different. Mum's pretty sociable — she's real funny. Dad isn't as sociable — he's kind of quiet — he reads a lot and he likes spending time alone. He's a lot more chilled than Mum.Janet: They do sound quite different.Kate: Yes. Mum — she tends to worry a lot, whereas Dad's quite ... easygoing. He's good at listening, you can tell him anything. Um ... could you put those over there? Janet: Sure. So who are you most like?Kate: You tell me!Janet: Hmm, you've got a bit of both of them, I think.Kate: Yes, I think so, too. I'm sociable, like Mum —Janet: You're very sociable!Kate: Yes, but I like to spend time alone.Janet: I don't think you worry a lot, do you?Kate: No, I'm like Dad in that way.Kate: Oh, look at the time, I must go. I'm meeting them outside the Lodge.Conversation 2Julia: This is great. It's just like I pictured it. Look at that, isn't it beautiful?Rob: Wow, Kate, honey! I love your school!Kate: No, Dad, I'm not at Law School, I'm at university!Rob: OK, honey. It's Oxford, England — I know! ...Rob: Listen, honey, Granddad had a fall just before we left.Kate: Oh, no!Rob: It's OK. He broke his arm but they don't think it's serious.Julia: I don't know, when old people break something, it can be very serious. Rob: I think he'll be fine!Kate: Tell me all about it. What exactly happened?Rob: He fell down the steps in the backyard.Kate: Oh, poor Granddad! So go on!Rob: He was taken to the hospital by ambulance ... they kept him there for several hours, didn't they, Julia? But they let him go home.Julia: I feel awful that we can't be with him.Rob: Julia, I spoke to Granddad as soon as we landed and he said the doctors aren't worried.Kate: What else did he say?Rob: He said his arm doesn't hurt him.Kate: Oh, good! So he'll be OK, right? There's no real concern?Rob: No, I told you, honey, there's no need to worry. ... Just look at that! What a great place!Kate: Yes, isn't it wonderful?Rob: Come on, let's go and eat. Isn't there a pub nearby? I seem to remember passing one. I'd love to eat in an English pub.Kate: OK, let's do that.Rob: There's no need to worry, honey.Unit 8Conversation 1Assistant: Hi, how can I help you?Mark: I'd like to book a flight and make a hotel reservation.Assistant: Going to ...?Mark: To New York, please.Assistant: Is that a one-way or a return?Mark: A return, please. Out on the 17th of June and coming back on the 10th of September.Assistant: OK, and I guess you want economy not club?Mark: Yes, economy, please. Could I have an aisle seat, not a window seat? Assistant: I'm afraid you'll have to do that at the airport. What about accommodation?Mark: Well, most of the time I'm working in upstate New York, but I need a cheap hotel in New York City and one in Boston for a few nights.Assistant: How many nights will you be staying?Mark: Three nights in Boston and two nights in New York. The 12th to the 15th of August in Boston, leaving on the 15th, so three nights in Boston. Then the 15th to the 17th in New York, leaving on the 17th. So two nights in New York.Assistant: OK, I can check that out for you. Single or double room?Mark: Single. With a shower, please.Assistant: I can get you rooms in budget hotels and motels for around 75 dollars a night.Mark: Does the price include breakfast?Assistant: Let me see. Yes, I can do that for you.Mark: What time is check-out?Assistant: Usually midday ... Do you have a student card? You'll need it for the cheap flights and the accommodation. Oh, and any travelling within the US? We can get you seats on Greyhound buses, if you want.Mark: Actually, that would be great. Can you get me a seat from New York to Boston, travelling on the 12th of August? And then one from New York to Chicago on the 17th? After Chicago I'm going to DC and then back to New York, but I'll get those tickets when I'm in the States.Assistant: No problem, just give me a few minutes ...Conversation 2Kate: Have you made plans for the summer vacation yet?Mark: Yes, I'm travelling around the States for three months.Janet: Three months! Wow, you're lucky! Whereabouts are you going?Mark: Well, I'm flying to New York City, and then I'm working for eight weeks as a counsellor on a summer camp in upstate New York. And then I'm travelling around for about four weeks, back in time for the start of term.Kate: Where are you staying?Mark: On the campsite in the mountains. It's about an hour away from New York City by bus.Kate: What are you going to do there?Mark: I'll be looking after teenagers, city kids mostly. We're going swimming, rafting and canoeing, and maybe backpacking in the mountains.Janet: That sounds amazing! And after that, what are your plans?Mark: I'll catch the Greyhound bus to Boston, and relax in a hotel for three days. Kate: The museums in Boston are great! You absolutely must visit them.Mark: OK, I'll do that. Then I go back to New York for two days, to watch a baseball game.Kate: The New York Yankees? That's my team!Mark: Then I'm flying to Chicago for six days, to stay with some friends.Kate: And will you fly home from Chicago?Mark: No, then I'll go to DC for six days to do some sightseeing. And then I'll be back a few days before the beginning of term.Janet: It sounds like a dream vacation.Unit 9Conversation 1Kate: Oh, Janet, you don't look too good. What's the matter?Janet: Oh, I'm OK. I am not sleeping very well at the moment, so I'm quite tired. I fell asleep in the lecture just now.Kate: Is anything wrong?Janet: Oh, I don't know. Maybe I'm worried about my end of term exams. And I've got an essay to write.Kate: Are you eating properly? I didn't see you at dinner last night.Janet: No, I've lost my appetite. I can't face any more Western food for a few days. Kate: I think you've lost some weight. Do you feel sick?Janet: Mostly homesick.Kate: Have you talked to your tutor?Janet: No! Why would I do that?Kate: Well, it's part of his job to keep an eye on your health. Why don't you make an appointment to see the doctor?Janet: But I'm all right.Kate: Do you have any other symptoms? Do you have a headache?Janet: Well, I have a headache nearly all the time at the moment. And I feel a bit depressed. But it's nothing. I'll be all right. Please! Don't worry about me.Kate: You poor thing! Why don't you make an appointment to see the doctor? She'll give you a check-up; take your temperature and blood pressure, all the usual tests. Janet: Oh, I don't want to make a fuss. It's nothing.Kate: You're not making a fuss. I am! And I'm coming with you.Conversation 2Doctor: What seems to be the problem?Janet: Well ...Kate: She hasn't been eating or sleeping properly. She fell asleep in the lecture this morning.Doctor: Hmm, and what did the lecturer think of that?Janet: Fortunately, he didn't see me.Doctor: OK, I'm going to ask you a few questions. How's your social life?Janet: It's fine. I've got some really nice friends.Doctor: Have you got a boyfriend?Janet: No. I don't think my parents would like me to have one while I'm at university.Doctor: And are you eating properly?Janet: Yes, I think so.Kate: She says she's a bit fed up with Western food.Doctor: OK, so you'd like some home comfort ... what's your favorite food? Janet: Fried rice!Doctor: Not much fried rice for dinner in college, is there? Um, any worries about your work?Janet: No. Maybe. Yes, I suppose so.Doctor: Do you have an essay crisis?Janet: Yes! I haven't finished all the reading. I don't read as quickly as my friends, soit takes me a long time to write my essays.Doctor: OK, Janet. I want you to try and take a few days off. I'll have a word with your tutor and see if he can wait for your essay.Janet: OK.Doctor: If you're run down or depressed, you're more likely to catch a cold. Can you come back and see me next week? In the meantime, I suggest you try taking some...Unit 10Conversation 1Janet: Hi!Mark: Hi!Kate: How are you?Mark: I'm OK, thanks. How're you guys?Kate: Good.Mark: Good ... Oh, that traffic! It's getting worse and worse!Kate: Tell me about it, it's awful! Don't you worry about your health when you're cycling? All that pollution! Like, what are we breathing in? They really should do something about it!Mark: I think they intend to — or at least they keep talking about it.Janet:Shall we go inside?Mark: Yea....Mark: You know, it sounds crazy, but it might be an idea to ban cars from the centre of the city. I nearly got hit by a crazy driver earlier.Kate: Are you OK?Mark: Yes, I'm fine.Janet: Would they really do that — ban cars?Mark: It's possible. It'd sort out the traffic problems. And it would reduce pollution. Janet: I don't think that would be very popular with drivers.Mark: But it would be safer for cyclists.Kate: Supposing they introduced a congestion charge?Mark: Like in London?Janet: Do you think it would stop people driving into Oxford?Mark: It'd stop some people.Kate: They could always extend the Park and Ride scheme.Janet: It's a good idea.Kate: If people actually use it.Mark: Hey, I haven't told you, I'm going to a meeting of the Environmental Action Group tonight.Kate: You are? Good for you!Mark: Yes, I'm just concerned about the environment. I've decided to get more active, believe it or not.Janet: I guess we all should.Kate: I know, you're right ... Excuse me ...Conversation 2Janet: By the way, Mark, how did your meeting go?Mark: Quite interesting, actually.Janet: So what did they talk about?Mark: Uh, recycling, mostly. They have this plan ... that everyone should write to the Council. Ask them to collect more rubbish. You know, like, all the plastic, which they don't do. I'm going to write a letter this evening.Janet: Really? You know, I think I might go to the next meeting. I've been meaning to do something ... get more active about the environment.Mark: Yes, we all need to. Global warming, ice caps melting, pollution. Doesn't it worry you?Janet: Yes, it's really frightening.Mark: Hey, it would be great if you came to the meeting, Janet. The Action Group really wants to make students more aware of what they can do to help.Janet: You know, I think everyone knows what they should do. But they don't do it — I don't do it.Mark: I'm the same. Actually, there's something we could do right now.Janet: What?Mark: There's this poster they want to put up all over the university. It tells you easy ways of saving energy. I'm looking at it, here, look ...Janet: "Use less hot water ..."Mark: They've asked us to print it out and put it up in college. You want to help me? Janet: Sure! It might be an idea to ask Kate to help.Mark: Yes, let's ask her. But why don't we print it out — right now?Janet: Sure.。

College culture Unit 1Unit 1 College cultureInside viewConversation1Janet :So this is the Cherwell Boathouse –it’s lovely! And look at those people punting! It looks quite easy.Mark :I’m not so sure about that! Janet, there’s something Kate an d 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 :Stu dents 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 cho ose 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 … We have to decide where the punt will start from.Mark :Cherwell Boathouse, no question! It's a very beautiful route from here, apparently.Kate :I’m with you on that.Janet :Me too …Conversation2Janet :I’m not used to boats – Woah!Mark :Whoops!Kate :Watch out! You nearly hit me with that thing!Mark :Sorry! I didn’t mean to. … OK, we’re off!Kate :Maybe I should do the punting.Mark :It’s fine. I’ve got the hang of it now – give me a chance.Kate :Well, I’d like to have a go.Mark :Supposing I do the first hour. Then you can take over for a while, if you want to.Kate :Yes, great.Janet :You’re really good at it, Mark! This is fantastic! It’s exactly how I imagined lifehere! Look over there –isn’t it lovely!Kate :Yes, it is.…Janet :Kate, everything’s organized, isn’t it, for collecting the sponsorship money?Kate :Yes, I’ve arranged for people to get the money to me by next Friday –if they haven’t paid online. I’ll count it all up.Janet :Good. We’d better have a meeting soon after that, don’t you think? How much have we raised?Kate :About 600.Janet:Fantastic! I’m so enjoying this!Mark :Hey guys, I’ve got a suggestion – how about moving over to the bank and we can have our picnic! Hey, look, there’s Louise and Sophie!Mark :Whoo …Girls Mark!Janet :Are you all right?Mark :Er … Of course I’m all right. Kate, I think it’s your turn to punt!Outside viewV/OHarvard University in Cambridge is one of the best universities in the world. We spoke to Alex Jude, the university’s Head of Communications. He explained that Harvard looks for the best and most talented students from around the world.AlexHarvard actually seeks students from around the world, the best students that we can find, to study chemistry, or study literature, or study government, or business. Our business school is particularly well-known around the world, as is the medical school and law school, so, um, and, and the Kennedy School of government, for the John F. Kennedy School of Government, so, era, we do seek very, very talented students and we have open doors for them.V/OWe asked five students at Harvard to tell us what kind of social life they have.AshleyUm, well relaxing is a little hard to do around here, but basically, I mean, I still, I, I live nearby anyway, so I see a lot of my friends, and … Um, there’s a good social life here if you look for it. I go to the gym, run. So that’s what I do.AdamIt is whatever you want it to be. It’s good. If you wanna go out party, do anything you can. If you wanna sit in your room and study all night like my friend over here, you can also do that.BrianSocially, like you said, it’s, it’s a lot of what you make it. Um, we don’t have fra ternities here, and so, you know, that’s, it’s obviously not as social. There’s not as many parties as there would be on another campus. Um, but on a Friday or Saturday night, there, there, there will be a party. Usually we end up studying until about 10 o’clock. And then we, and then we’ll go out and have fun maybe, or just watch a movie with friends, or, you know, whatever is going on for the night. JodieNot everyone would agree with me, obviously, but it’s, I think it’s a fun place to be.Int.Have you made a lot of friends?JodieOh, definitely.Int. :Mm.JodieMany.Int.What, what do you do with your friends?JodieUm, well, I like to go to concerts. I’m in three music groups, so I have lots of rehearsals during the week for that. Um, just do, you know, some fun things, on the weekend.V/OWe asked the Harvard students if they use theInternet.AshleyUm, I, I use it a fairly good amount. Um, our library system is online, so I use that a lot. And a lot of my classes, you know, have to do research papers. You can find a lot of information on there, so.Int.So how often do you use it, a week, a day?AshleyUm, I use it probably on more of a weekly basis. Maybe three or four times a week.BrianOh yes, definitely. We live through the Internet actually. Well, I do a lot of research through the Internet; follow me stocks on the Internet. Um, well, even though e-mail is not officially Internet, we, that’s how we communicate a lot at college, so, through the e-mail.JohnUm, I use the internet mostly for, er, I’d say, sort of leisure purposes. I mean, I play, um, I use it for a lot of, I don’t, we don’t have TV in my room, so I use it, uh, uh, go to the CNN website, keep up on current events, things like that. Uh, I also, uh, you know, there’s some little games to play over the Internet. Um, just um, I go to to see what’s happening, follow the Boston Red Sox, things like that. Um, I think a lot of courses use it to post things, but I, I don’t usually use it that much for research, or things. I tend to use the libraries for such things, so.Listening inPassage1V/OHi, I’m Nick Carter, and this is SUR, your university radio station. This morning we went around campus to ask freshers –now half-way through their first year –the que stion, “How are you finding uni?” Here are some of the answers we got.Speaker 1It’s cool. It’s everything I hoped it would be. I’m very ambitious, I want to be a journalist and I want to get to the top of the profession. I’ve started writing for the university newspaper so I’ve got my foot on the ladder already.Speaker 2I’m working hard and the teaching is as good as I expected. And I’ve made some good friends. But I’m very homesick. I’m Nigerian and my family’s so far away. I went home at Christma s for a month –that really helped, but man, I miss my family so much.Speaker 3“How am I finding uni?” It’s great. It’s not perfect, nothing is, but, like, I’ve got a brilliant social life, just brilliant, and I’ve made lots of friends. For the first few months I just didn’t do, really enough work. But I –I talked about it with my parents and I’m working harder now and getting good grades.Speaker 4Actually, I’ve been quite lonely to be honest. I’m a bit shy … everyone else seemed to find it so easy to make friends straight away. But things have been better recently –yeah, they have. I’ve joined a couple of clubs and like, it really helps to get to know people when you have shared interests. So, yeah –I’m feeling a lot happier now.Speaker 5Uni’s great, I love it. My only problem –and it’s quite a big problem – is money. My parents are both unemployed so, you know, they can’t help me financially. My grant just isn’t –it’s just not enough for me to live on, so I’ve taken a part-time job as a waitress – a lot of people I know, like a lot, have had to do the same. I don’t want to have huge debts at the end.Speaker 6I love my subject, History, and I’m, I’m getting fantastic teaching here. I want to be a university lecturer and that means I have to get a first. I have a good social life but work definitely comes first for me.Passage2Oxford and Cambridge – two universities so similar that they are often spoken of together as “Oxbridge”. They’re both in the UK, fairly near London, and both re gularly come top in any ranking of the world’s best universities.The two universities began within a century of each other. Oxford University, now 900 years old, was founded towards the end of the 11th century. In 1209 there was a dispute between the university and the townspeople of Oxford. As a result, some of the Oxford teachers left and founded a university in the town of Cambridge, some 84 miles away. Ever since then, the two institutions have been very competitive.Unlike most modern universities, both Oxford and Cambridge consist of a large number of colleges. Oxford has 39 and Cambridge 31. Many of these colleges have old and very beautiful architecture, and large numbers of tourists visit them.In all UK universities, you need good grades in the national exams taken at 18. But to get into Oxford and Cambridge, it’s not enough to get A grades in your exams. You also have to go for a long interview. In these interviews, students need to show that they are creative and capable of original thinking.Through the centuries, both universities have made huge contributions to British cultural life. They have produced great writers, world leaders and politicians. Cambridge, in particular, has produced scientists whose discoveries and inventions have changed our lives.Among the great university institutions is the world’s most famous debating society, the Oxford Union, where undergraduates get a chance to practise speaking in public. Cambridge’s comedy clubFootlights has produced many first-class comedians, while some of the UK’s most famous actors and actresses began their careers at The Oxford University Dramatic Society, known as OUDS. Then there’s the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race, which takes place every year in March or April, and is watched on television all over the UK.So with all this excellence in so many fields, it’s not surprising that the ambition of clever students all over the world is to attend either one of these great universities.Unit 2Inside viewConversation1Kate :Come in. Hey, Janet.Janet :Hi Kate, are you busy?Kate :Yes, I’m just doing an essay. But it’s great to see you. So what’s new?Janet :Well, nothing much.Kate :You look a bit fed up. What’s bugging you?Janet :Well, I had a phone call from my parents and it made me feel homesick. It happens every time they call, and it gets me down.Kate :I’m sorry to hear that. I know how you feel. I love speaking to my mum and dad, but I always feel miserable after the call.Janet :My dad doesn’t say much, and I want to speak to him, but I wish I knew what to say. Kate :Don’t let it get to you. My dad doesn’t say much on the phone either. I call, he answers the phone, and says, “Hi, I’ll pass you to your mother.” It’s really irritating.Janet :But I miss him and my mother a lot, and I like to hear his voice.Kate :Just tell him what you’re up to.Janet :Sometimes I feel as if I made a mistake leaving home and coming to Oxford. Sometimes I feel like a moody teenager.Kate :Try not to worry about it, Janet. It’s normal to feel like that. I understand how you feel, but I bet everything will be fine next term. You’ll get used to it. Hey, why don’t you do what I do?Janet :What’s that?Kate :When my dad calls, I ask him for more money! He usually says no, but at least I getto hear his voice!Janet :Maybe. I’m sorry to take up your time, Kate, but I must go now. Bye!Kate :Wait a minute …!Conversation2Kate :I think I may have upset Janet last night.Mark :What happened?Kate :She came to see me. I was busy doing an essay but I was really pleased to see her. She’d had a call from home, and said she was feeling homesick.Mark :Poor kid! It must be tough on you guys, living so far away from home.Kate :I tried to make her laugh, told her not to worry about it, and that it was normal to feel miserable. Suddenly she looked miserable, and then she got up and said, “I must go now” and left my room. It was really sudden. I felt as if I’d said something wrong.Mark :Maybe she was just being polite. It was probably because she realized you were working and didn’t want to disturb you.Kate :I just wonder if she found it difficult to talk about her feelings with me. Maybe I shouldn’t have tried to make her laugh? Perhaps she thought I wasn’t taking her serio usly.Mark :I wouldn’t worry about it. Put yourself in her shoes. How would you feel if you were a student at college in China?Kate :I know. That’s why I feel bad. If only she had stayed longer! I wish I could have helped her more.Janet :Hey, everyone!Mark :Hi Janet, you look cheerful!Janet :Yes, I’ve just got my essay back. I got an alpha minus!Kate :What an amazing grade! Well done.Mark :I’m really happy for you, Janet.Janet :I feel on top of the world!Outside viewSebastienHi. I’m Sebastien. I’m from Germany. Um, the idea of IQ of a measure of your brain power has been around for a while, but recently there’s been this new idea of the EQ –your emotional quotient. And by now, it’s actually almost being regarded as more important. If you look at it, businesses will ... Well, they will prefer employing people with great EQ. Well, of course, IQ cannot be disregarded, but um, EQ does have its importance as well. Uh, I believe that, um, (I)mean, people, most people will have, um, their basic means of communicating with other people. Most people are somewhat socially adept, and just like most people have, you know, a basic general knowledge. But then, what I think really is the difference betweenIQ and EQ, I mean, you can have a “brainiac”, and they will be great at most things they do, but if you just can’t get along with him, if you just can’t communicate with him, I mean, you know, he’snot really that useful.KimHi. This is Kim. I’m originally from Korea, and I was raised in Californ ia. And today, we are going to talk about the differences between IQ and EQ –IQ meaning your intelligence, EQ meaning your emotions. Now, in … When I was, when I was a little, little boy in Korea, I had to take … I think I’d taken like two or three IQ tes ts before the age of ten, which is when I moved to California. So, I guess we stress a lot of importance on intelligence, on having great IQ scores. But after I moved to the States, I learnt how to associate with people, and along the lines that this word EQ came up, you know, emotional, caring about … It’s basically how you deal with people, how you make people feel, and how people make you feel.I think they’re equally as, as important, but it seems that in the Eastern world they kind of stress on that a lot more back in the days. But I think again, you know, now that with Internet and people are communicating so much faster, there’s a better mixture of the two I think. There’s a stress on EQ in Korea as well, and a stress on IQ in the States. Thank you.TedHello. My name is Ted, and I’m from the United States of America. Today, I’m going to talk a little bit about IQ or EQ – which is most important, or which is more important. Now, for a long time when I was growing up, people said, “IQ. What’s your IQ? Take an IQ test.” But then EQ, your emotions, how you interact with people, that became very important. And I think they’re … that people might be onto something with that, because your EQ – how you deal with people, how you interact with people – is important. Now, a big part of this, in my opinion, is listening. I know I’m talking a lot right now, but if you want to get along well with people, you have to listen to them, so just take a minute, maybe shut your mouth for a minute, and listen to others, and then you can understand and communicate with them in a better way. So, part of EQ, I think, is listening – listening to others – and it can be more important than IQ.Listening inPassage1PresenterWe’re fortunate to have as our guest today Dr Jenna Hudson, who has just written a book about how colours affect us in our surroundings, especially in the world of advertising. It’s called Market Colours. Dr Hudson, which are the most common colours in advertising and marketing? Dr HudsonWell, of course, it depends what image the marketing team wish to project with their products. So for example, we often think of blue as a cold colour, but it also makes you feel peaceful, quiet, and it doesn’t suggest strong emotions. So it’s a favourite for banks and insurance companies, who wish to suggest the image that they are trustworthy. And for selling products, it’s often used to suggest something is pure and fresh.What about red?You can sell almost anything with red. It’s a hot colour, which suggests a feeling of energy and even passion. It grabs your attention, and can make people buy almost anything. You often see red on magazine covers. But if you use it too much, it looks cheap and may make people tired. And orange has a similar effect to red, it’s upbeat and happy, it suggests pleasant feelings and images. Most people react well to orange, and it’s especially popular in advertising and on packaging for baked food.What about yellow, for instance?Yellow is the colour of sunshine and it’s a positive, happy colour, so it’s used a lot in advertising. But it’s also often used for warning signs, direction signs, and so on, where you have to read the message quickly and at a distance.What about less popular colours for advertising?Surprisingly, gre en isn’t used much in advertising except for garden products. It’s friendly and restful. It can be cool and soothing, the colour of apples and mint, but it can also be quite strong and many people associate it with unpleasant ideas of decay or slimy creatures. But most colours are not primary colours, they’re a combination. Absolutely. So yellow-orange is common, and often used to give an impression of style and class, it looks like gold. But it’s not often used in letters because it’s not very strong. And y ellow-green reminds people of feeling sick.Blue-green works well as a cool colour, suggesting freshness, and is sometimesused for toothpaste products, bathroom products, food and household cleaning products. It has many of the advantages of blue without the disadvantages of green.you very much, DrScriptsHudson. Market Colours by Dr JennaHudson is on sale from next week,priced £…Passage2Presenter :What makes you embarrassed, Sally?Sally :Oh, I’m easily embarrassed. If anybody notices me or looks at me, I get very embarrassed. When people sing me Happy Birthday on my birthday, I get very embarrassed.Presenter :And what makes you upset?Sally :When people are selfish, people who think only of themselves. And cruelty –I can’t bear people who are cruel, especially to animals or children.Presenter :Jake, what makes you depressed?Jake :I hate it when it rains, and I don’t like people who look down on me, who think they’re superior to me without any reason.Presenter :And what makes you angry?Jake :When people don’t behave properly in public, bad behaviour like dropping litter or people pushing each other on the bus or the train.Presenter :Andrew, what makes you cheerful?Andrew :I like to see everyone around me being happy and having a positive attitude towards the future, optimistic people.Presenter :And what makes you jealous?Andrew :Well, to be honest, I just never feel jealous. I can’t see the point of it.Presenter :Monica, what makes you proud?Monica :I’m proud when I’m successful, especially in my work. Being recognized by my boss for what I can do makes me feel really proud. Oh, and my family. I’m very proud of them. Presenter :And what makes you nervous?Monica :Every time I teach a new class. The night before I’m very nervous. You don’t know what the kids are going to be like and how they might behave, or if they’re going to like you. Presenter :Anything else?Monica :Doing interviews like this.Unit 3 Crime watchInside viewConversation1Kate :So, what did you think of the movie?Mark :It was good but I thought it was too long.Kate :Yes, me too.Kate :Hey, where’s my bike? I don’t believe it! It’s gone!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!Mark :It’s a really mean thing to do, steal a bike.Kate :It was a mountain bike and it cost a fortune –I don’t have the money to buy another one. Mark :Listen, I’ll go down the street and see if I can see anyone with it. Why don’t you go into that shop and see if they’ve seen anything suspicious? I’ll be back in a minute.Kate :OK.…Kate :Well?Mark :No luck. What did they say in the shop?Kate :I asked the shopkeeper if she’d seen a nything –Mark :And?Kate :She said she hadn’t. I guess it was a long shot. She advised me to report it to the police. But according to her, bikes get stolen all the time around here.Mark :Listen, let’s get back so you can report it.Kate :I’ve got no bike. I’m just so upset!Mark :It’s not far to college. Come on!Conversation2Mark :So did you ring the police?Kate :Yes. I went to the police station to report it.Mark :What did they say?Kate :No one’s found it. This woman said that Oxford has the fifth highest rate of bike theftin the country!Mark :You’re joking!Kate :That’s what she said.Mark :What else did she say?Kate :She told me that sometimes you do get bikes back – the thieves use them and then abandon them, apparently, and then people find them and report them.Mark :So you might get it back.Kate :I hope so, Mark, I really do. It’s just too much you know? But … um … what else? She told me to go to this sale they have of abandoned bikes. She thinks I might find it there. But it’s only every two months, I can’t wait till then! Honestly, Mark, I’m really furious!Mark :You can always buy a cheap bike on eBay.Kate :Hello … Speaking … You found it! Where was it? Is it …? Oh, that’s fantastic news! There was a lamp and a baske t on it … Right … OK, thank you, I’ll be in tomorrow morning to pick it up. Unbelievable! This guy found it!Mark :Brilliant! Was that the police?Kate :Yes. What they said was, someone dumped it outside this guy’s backyard.Mark :That’s so strange!Kate :The lamp’s been stolen and the basket.Mark :Forget about it! You’re lucky to get it back!Outside viewPart1PresenterDodgy deals aren’t the only problems associated with doorstep sellers. Your door step presents these unannounced visitors with a real opportunity to undertake distraction burglary where they often pose as bogus officials to gain access to your home.I’m joined now by Ian Holt, from Thames Valley Police. Ian, just outline for me what does distraction burglary actually entail?IanHoltWell basically what happens is, somebody uses a story to get inside somebody’s house and then they steal items, usually cash or small items of jewellery.PresenterAnd what are the different techniques that are commonly used?IanHoltWell ba sically the er … the people that commit this crime move from area to area, er … they will look at an area, they will try and pick a particular target and they can find that by looking at property, it may beer, an uncut garden, it may be repairs that need doing to the property. Something that indicates that there’s, there’s a vulnerable person in there. It … usually, it’s an elderly person that lives there. Is this quite a common problem now? It is becoming more common. To get it in perspective, of the 14,000 burglaries that were in Thames Valley last year, we had reported 800 crimes of distraction burglary.But, it … there’s a slight increase this year over last year’s figures.OK, you mentioned some of the victimsbeing elderly. What other people aretargeted?Well, unfortunately, with this type of offence, it is the vulnerable in society and the elderly. The, the national average, if there’s such a thing as a, a victim for this type of crime, is a white female aged 81 years.And what about things that people can do to prevent it happening, basically?Well the things they can do are very, very simple. The difficulty comes, is that some of these people, er … it’s very difficult for them to remember what to do. But the three things we, we always say is: stop, chain and check.

This 72-year old guy stole a pair of trousers from a department store in Paris. A security man saw him and alerted the police and they were waiting for him when he came out of the shop. The shoplifter started running, but the policeman soon caught up with him. The manthenbit the policeman on his arm several times.Steve :He bit the policeman?Patrick :Yes – you have to remember, he was 72.Steve :I’d forgotten that.Patrick :Problem wa s, it didn’t hurt the policeman at all, ’cause the guy had forgotten to put his false teeth in before he left home.Steve :Very funny!Patrick :And the moral of the story is –Steve :Always remember to wear your false teeth if you’re going to bite someo ne.Patrick :That’s good. I read a funny crime story the other day. Let’s see … yeah … this guy … this guy robbed a supermarket somewhere in America –I can’t remember where exactly – anyway, he got away with about 4,000 dollars. The next week the local newspaper reported the story but said he’d stolen 6,000 dollars. The thief rang the newspaper office to complain. He said, “Look, I only took 4,000 dollars. I’m wondering if the supermarket manager took another 2,000 and said I’d taken it. I did not take 6,000, I promise you.”Steve :He was probably telling the truth.Patrick :He probably was. Anyway, the newspaper managed to keep the guy talking while they rang the police. And the police traced the call – the guy was ringing from a phone booth – and they arrested him while he was still talking to the newspaper.Steve :That’s good. Stupid guy! I’ve got another true story … This – this – old guy was in court for some crime –and he fell asleep. His case began and his lawyer stood up and said, “My client p leads not guilty.” The man suddenly woke up, but wasn’t sure what was happening. He jumped up and shouted, “I plead guilty! I plead guilty!”Patrick :So what happened?Steve :The judge allowed him to plead not guilty.Patrick :That’s the best, I think.Passage2Presenter :You’re listening to Kevin Fallon and my topic for today is street crime.

It looks quite easy.Mark :I’m not so sure about that! 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 :Stude nts 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 choos e a day for the event.

What have we got so far?Kate :Choose a charity. Also a day for the event. Change the wording on the sponsorship form …Um … We have to decide where the punt will start from.Mark :Cherwell Boathouse, no question!

Kate, I think it’s your turn to punt!Outside viewV/OHarvard University in Cambridge is one of the best universities in the world. We spoke to Alex Jude, the university’s Head of Communications. He explained that Harvard looks for the best and most talented students from around the world.AlexHarvard actually seeks students from around the world, the best students that we can find, to study chemistry, or study literature, or study government, or business. Our business school is particularly well-known around the world, as is the medical school and law school, so, um, and, and the Kennedy School of government, for the John F. Kennedy School of Government, so, era, we do seek very, very talented students and we have open doors for them.V/OWe asked five students at Harvard to tell us what kind of social life they have.AshleyUm, well relaxing is a little hard to do around here, but basically, I mean, I still, I, I live nearby anyway, so I see a lot of my friends, and … Um, there’s a good social life here if you look for it. I go to the gym, run. So that’s what I do.AdamIt is whatever you want it to be. It’s good. If you wanna go out party, do anything you can. If you wanna sit in your room and study all night like my friend over here, you can also do that.BrianSocially, like you said, it’s, it’s a lot of what you make it. Um, we don’t have fraterniti es here, and so, you know, that’s, it’s obviously not as social. There’s not as many parties as there would be on another campus. Um, but on a Friday or Saturday night, there, there, there will be a party. Usually we end up studying until about 10 o’clock.And then we, and then we’ll go out and have fun maybe, or just watch a movie with friends, or, you know, whatever is going on for the night. JodieNot everyone would agree with me, obviously, but it’s, I think it’s a fun place to be.Int.Have you made a lot of friends?JodieOh, definitely.Int. :Mm.JodieMany.Int.What, what do you do with your friends?JodieUm, well, I like to go to concerts. I’m in three music groups, so I have lots of rehearsals during the week for that. Um, just do, you know, some fun things, on the weekend.V/OWe asked the Harvard students if they use theInternet.AshleyUm, I, I use it a fairly good amount. Um, our library system is online, so I use that a lot. And a lot of my classes, you know, have to do research papers. You can find a lot of information on there, so.Int.So how often do you use it, a week, a day?AshleyUm, I use it probably on more of a weekly basis. Maybe three or four times a week.BrianOh yes, definitely. We live through the Internet actually. Well, I do a lot of research through the Internet; follow me stocks on the Internet. Um, well, even though e-mail is not officially Internet, we, that’s how we communicate a lot at college, so, through the e-mail.JohnUm, I use the intern et mostly for, er, I’d say, sort of leisure purposes. I mean, I play, um, I use it for a lot of, I don’t, we don’t have TV in my room, so I use it, uh, uh, go to the CNN website, keep up on current events, things like that. Uh, I also, uh, you know, there’s some little games to play over the Internet. Um, just um, I go to to see what’s happening, follow the Boston Red Sox, things like that. Um, I think a lot of courses use it to post things, but I, I don’t usually use it that much for research, or things. I tend to use the libraries for such things, so.Listening inPassage1V/OHi, I’m Nick Carter, and this is SUR, your university radio station. This morning we went around campus to ask freshers –now half-way through their first year –the ques tion, “How are you finding uni?” Here are some of the answers we got.Speaker 1It’s cool. It’s everything I hoped it would be. I’m very ambitious, I want to be a journalist and I want to get to the top of the profession. I’ve started writing for the university newspaper so I’ve got my foot on the ladder already.Speaker 2I’m working hard and the teaching is as good as I expected. And I’ve made some good friends. But I’m very homesick. I’m Nigerian and my family’s so far away. I went home at Christmas for a month –that really helped, but man, I miss my family so much.Speaker 3“How am I finding uni?” It’s great. It’s not perfect, nothing is, but, like, I’ve got a brilliant sociallife, just brilliant, and I’ve made lots of friends. For the first few months I just didn’t do, really enough work. But I –I talked about it with my parents and I’m working harder now and getting good grades.Speaker 4Actually, I’ve been quite lonely to be honest. I’m a bit shy … everyone else seemed to find it so easy to make friends straight away. But things have been better recently –yeah, they have. I’ve joined a couple of clubs and like, it really helps to get to know people when you have shared interests. So, yeah –I’m feeling a lot happier now.Speaker 5Uni’s great, I love it. My only problem –and it’s quite a big problem – is money. My parents are both unemployed so, you know, they can’t help me financially. My grant just isn’t –it’s just not enough for me to live on, so I’ve taken a part-time job as a waitress – a lot of people I know, like a lot, have had to do the same. I don’t want to have huge debts at the end.Speaker 6I love my subject, History, and I’m, I’m getting fantastic teaching here. I want to be a university lecturer and that means I have to get a first. I have a good social life but work definitely comes first for me.Passage2Oxford and Cambridge – two universities so similar that they are often spoken of together as “Oxbridge”. They’re both in the UK, fairly near London, and both regula rly come top in any ranking of the world’s best universities.The two universities began within a century of each other. Oxford University, now 900 years old, was founded towards the end of the 11th century. In 1209 there was a dispute between the university and the townspeople of Oxford. As a result, some of the Oxford teachers left and founded a university in the town of Cambridge, some 84 miles away. Ever since then, the two institutions have been very competitive.Unlike most modern universities, both Oxford and Cambridge consist of a large number of colleges. Oxford has 39 and Cambridge 31. Many of these colleges have old and very beautiful architecture, and large numbers of tourists visit them.In all UK universities, you need good grades in the national exams taken at 18. But to get into Oxford and Cambridge, it’s not enough to get A grades in your exams. You also have to go for a long interview. In these interviews, students need to show that they are creative and capable of original thinking.Through the centuries, both universities have made huge contributions to British cultural life. They have produced great writers, world leaders and politicians. Cambridge, in particular, has produced scientists whose discoveries and inventions have changed our lives.Among the great university institutions is the world’s most famous debating society, the Oxford Union, where undergraduates get a chance to practise speaking in public. Cambridge’s comedy clubFootlights has produced many first-class comedians, while some of the UK’s most famous actors and actresses began their careers at The Oxford University Dramatic Society, known as OUDS. Then there’s the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race, which takes place every year in March or April, and is watched on television all over the UK.So with all this excellence in so many fields, it’s not surprising that the ambition of clever studentsall over the world is to attend either one of these great universities.Unit 2Inside viewConversation1Kate :Come in. Hey, Janet.Janet :Hi Kate, are you busy?Kate :Yes, I’m just doing an essay. But it’s great to see you. So what’s new?Janet :Well, nothing much.Kate :You look a bit fed up. What’s bugging you?Janet :Well, I had a phone call from my parents and it made me feel homesick. It happens every time they call, and it gets me down.Kate :I’m sorry to hear that. I know how you feel. I love speaking to my mum and dad, but I always feel miserable after the call.Janet :My dad doesn’t say much, and I want to spe ak to him, but I wish I knew what to say. Kate :Don’t let it get to you. My dad doesn’t say much on the phone either. I call, he answers the phone, and says, “Hi, I’ll pass you to your mother.” It’s really irritating.Janet :But I miss him and my mother a lot, and I like to hear his voice.Kate :Just tell him what you’re up to.Janet :Sometimes I feel as if I made a mistake leaving home and coming to Oxford. Sometimes I feel like a moody teenager.Kate :Try not to worry about it, Janet. It’s normal t o feel like that. I understand how you feel, but I bet everything will be fine next term. You’ll get used to it. Hey, why don’t you do what I do? Janet :What’s that?Kate :When my dad calls, I ask him for more money! He usually says no, but at least I getto hear his voice!Janet :Maybe. I’m sorry to take up your time, Kate, but I must go now. Bye!Kate :Wait a minute …!Conversation2Kate :I think I may have upset Janet last night.Mark :What happened?Kate :She came to see me. I was busy doing a n essay but I was really pleased to see her. She’d had a call from home, and said she was feeling homesick.Mark :Poor kid! It must be tough on you guys, living so far away from home.Kate :I tried to make her laugh, told her not to worry about it, and that it was normal to feel miserable. Suddenly she looked miserable, and then she got up and said, “I must go now” and left my room. It was really sudden. I felt as if I’d said something wrong.Mark :Maybe she was just being polite. It was probably because she realized you were working and didn’t want to disturb you.Kate :I just wonder if she found it difficult to talk about her feelings with me. Maybe I shouldn’t have tried to make her laugh? Perhaps she thought I wasn’t taking her seriously.Mark :I w ouldn’t worry about it. Put yourself in her shoes. How would you feel if you were a student at college in China?Kate :I know. That’s why I feel bad. If only she had stayed longer! I wish I could have helped her more.Janet :Hey, everyone!Mark :Hi Janet, you look cheerful!Janet :Yes, I’ve just got my essay back. I got an alpha minus!Kate :What an amazing grade! Well done.Mark :I’m really happy for you, Janet.Janet :I feel on top of the world!Outside viewSebastienHi. I’m Sebastien. I’m from Germany. Um, the idea of IQ of a measure of your brain power has been around for a while, but recently there’s been this new idea of the EQ –your emotional quotient. And by now, it’s actually almost being regarded as more important. If you look at it, bu sinesses will ... Well, they will prefer employing people with great EQ. Well, of course, IQ cannot be disregarded, but um, EQ does have its importance as well. Uh, I believe that, um, (I)mean, people, most people will have, um, their basic means of communicating with other people. Most people are somewhat socially adept, and just like most people have, you know, a basic general knowledge. But then, what I think really is the difference betweenIQ and EQ, I mean, you can have a “brainiac”, and they will be great at most things they do, but if you just can’t get along with him, if you just can’t communicate with him, I mean, you know, he’s not really that useful.KimHi. This is Kim. I’m originally from Korea, and I was raised in California. And today, we a re going to talk about the differences between IQ and EQ –IQ meaning your intelligence, EQ meaning your emotions. Now, in … When I was, when I was a little, little boy in Korea, I had to take … I think I’d taken like two or three IQ tests before the age o f ten, which is when I moved to California. So, I guess we stress a lot of importance on intelligence, on having great IQ scores. But after I moved to the States, I learnt how to associate with people, and along the lines that this word EQ came up, you kno w, emotional, caring about … It’s basically how you deal with people, how you make people feel, and how people make you feel.I think they’re equally as, as important, but it seems that in the Eastern world they kind of stress on that a lot more back in the days. But I think again, you know, now that with Internet and people are communicating so much faster, there’s a better mixture of the two I think. There’s a stress on EQ in Korea as well, and a stress on IQ in the States. Thank you.TedHello. My na me is Ted, and I’m from the United States of America. Today, I’m going to talk a little bit about IQ or EQ – which is most important, or which is more important. Now, for a long time when I was growing up, people said, “IQ. What’s your IQ? Take an IQ test.” But then EQ, your emotions, how you interact with people, that became very important. And I think they’re … that people might be onto something with that, because your EQ – how you deal with people, how you interact with people – is important. Now, a big part of this, in my opinion, is listening. I know I’m talking a lot right now, but if you want to get along well with people, you have to listen to them, so just take a minute, maybe shut your mouth for a minute, and listen to others, and then you can understand and communicate with them in a better way. So, part of EQ, I think, is listening – listening to others – and it can be more important than IQ.Listening inPassage1PresenterWe’re fortunate to have as our guest today Dr Jenna Hudson, who has j ust written a book about how colours affect us in our surroundings, especially in the world of advertising. It’s called Market Colours. Dr Hudson, which are the most common colours in advertising and marketing? Dr HudsonWell, of course, it depends what image the marketing team wish to project with their products. So for example, we often think of blue as a cold colour, but it also makes you feel peaceful, quiet, and it doesn’t suggest strong emotions. So it’s a favourite for banks and insurance companies, who wish to suggest the image that they are trustworthy. And for selling products, it’s often used to suggest something is pure and fresh.What about red?You can sell almost anything with red. It’s a hot colour, which suggests a feeling of energy and even passion. It grabs your attention, and can make people buy almost anything. You often see red on magazine covers. But if you use it too much, it looks cheap and may make people tired. And orange has a similar effect to red, it’s upbeat and happy, it s uggests pleasant feelings and images. Most people react well to orange, and it’s especially popular in advertising and on packaging for baked food.What about yellow, for instance?Yellow is the colour of sunshine and it’s a positive, happy colour, so it’s used a lot in advertising. But it’s also often used for warning signs, direction signs, and so on, where you have to read the message quickly and at a distance.What about less popular colours for advertising?Surprisingly, green isn’t used much in advertising except for garden products. It’s friendly and restful. It can be cool and soothing, the colour of apples and mint, but it can also be quite strong and many people associate it with unpleasant ideas of decay or slimy creatures. But most colours ar e not primary colours, they’re a combination. Absolutely. So yellow-orange is common, and often used to give an impression of style and class, it looks like gold. But it’s not often used in letters because it’s not very strong. And yellow-green reminds people of feeling sick.Blue-green works well as a cool colour, suggesting freshness, and is sometimesused for toothpaste products, bathroom products, food and household cleaning products. It has many of the advantages of blue without the disadvantages of green.Fascinating.Thank you very much, DrScriptsHudson. Market Colours by Dr JennaHudson is on sale from next week,priced £15.99 …Passage2Presenter :What makes you embarrassed, Sally?Sally :Oh, I’m easily embarrassed. If anybody notices me or looks at me, I get very embarrassed. When people sing me Happy Birthday on my birthday, I get very embarrassed.Presenter :And what makes you upset?Sally :When people are selfish, people who think only of themselves. And cruelty –I can’t bear people who are cruel, especially to animals or children.Presenter :Jake, what makes you depressed?Jake :I hate it when it rains, and I don’t like people who look down on me, who think they’re superior to me without any reason.Presenter :And what makes you angry?Jake :When people don’t behave properly in public, bad behaviour like dropping litter or people pushing each other on the bus or the train.Presenter :Andrew, what makes you cheerful?Andrew :I like to see everyone around me being happy and having a positive attitude towards the future, optimistic people.Presenter :And what makes you jealous?Andrew :Well, to be honest, I just never feel jealous. I can’t see the point of it.Presenter :Monica, what makes you proud?Monica :I’m proud when I’m suc cessful, especially in my work. Being recognized by my boss for what I can do makes me feel really proud. Oh, and my family. I’m very proud of them. Presenter :And what makes you nervous?Monica :Every time I teach a new class.

This woman said that Oxford has the fif th highest rate of bike theftin the country!Mark :You’re joking!Kate :That’s what she said.Mark :What else did she say?Kate :She told me that sometimes you do get bikes back – the thieves use them and then abandon them, apparently, and then people find them and report them.Mark :So you might get it back.Kate :I hope so, Mark, I really do. It’s just too much you know? But … um … what else? She told me to go to this sale they have of abandoned bikes. She thinks I might find it there.

Your door step presents these unannounced visitors with a real opportunity to undertake distraction burglary where they often pose as bogus officials to gain access to your home.I’m joined now by Ian Holt, from Thames Valley Police. Ian, just outline for me what does distraction burglary actually entail?IanHoltW ell basically what happens is, somebody uses a story to get inside somebody’s house and then they steal items, usually cash or small items of jewellery.PresenterAnd what are the different techniques that are commonly used?IanHoltWell basically th e er … the people that commit this crime move from area to area, er … they will look at an area, they will try and pick a particular target and they can find that by looking at property, it may beer, an uncut garden, it may be repairs that need doing to the property.Something that indicates that there’s, there’s a vulnerable person in there. It … usually, it’s an elderly person that lives there. Is this quite a common problem now? It is becoming more common. To get it in perspective, of the 14,000 burglaries that were in Thames Valley last year, we had reported 800 crimes of distraction burglary.But, it … there’s a slight increase this year over last year’s figures.OK, you mentioned some of the victimsbeing elderly. What other people aretargeted?Well, unfortunately, with this type of offence, it is the vulnerable in society and the elderly. The, the national average, if there’s such a thing as a, a victim for this type of crime, is a white female aged 81 years.And what about things that people can do to prevent it happening, basically?Well the things they can do are very, very simple. The difficulty comes, is that some of these people, er … it’s very difficult for them to remember what to do. But the three things we, we always say is: stop, cha in and check. And that’s stop before you open the door to make sure who’s on the other side. Always apply a chain.

Let’s see … yeah … this guy … this guy robbed a supermarket somewhere in America –I can’t remember where exactly – anyway, he got away with about 4,000 dollars. The next week the local newspaper reported the story but said he’d stolen 6,000 dollars. The thief rang the newspaper office to complain. He said, “Look, I only took 4,000 dollars. I’m wondering if the supermarket manager took another 2,000 and said I’d taken it. I did not take 6,000, I promise you.”Steve :He was probably telling the truth.Patrick :He probably was. Anyway, the newspaper managed to keep the guy talking while they rang the police. And the police traced the call – the guy was ringing from a phone booth – and they arrested him while he was still talking to the newspaper.Steve :That’s good. Stupid guy! I’ve got another true story … This – this – old guy was in court for some crime –and he fell asleep. His case began and his lawyer stood up and said, “My client pleads not gu ilty.” The man suddenly woke up, but wasn’t sure what was happening. He jumped up and shouted, “I plead guilty! I plead guilty!”Patrick :So what happened?Steve :The judge allowed him to plead not guilty.Patrick :That’s the best, I think.Passage2Presenter :You’re listening to Kevin Fallon and my topic for today is street crime. Being mugged is something that can happen to anyone –and it’s a very frightening experience. So it’s positive when you hear of someone who was attacked by a mugger and defeated them – especially when that person is a woman. Anna Black was attacked by a mugger. She’s here to tell us about it. How long ago did this happen, Anna?News 24/7 Unit 4AnnaJust over a week ago. The day it happened,I was coming home from work a bit laterthan usual – I think it was about seven. Iwas on my mobile phone, talking to myhusband.PresenterAnd it was still daylight?Anna :Yes. Anyway, suddenly, someone pulled my hair from behind – and at the same time they。

College culture Unit 1Unit 1 College cultureInside viewConversation1Janet :So this is the Cherwell Boathouse –it’s lovely! And look at those people punting! It looks quite easy.Mark :I’m not so sure about that! 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 :Stude nts 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 choos e 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 … We have to decide where the punt will start from.Mark :Cherwell Boathouse, no question! It's a very beautiful route from here, apparently.Kate :I’m with you on that.Janet :Me too …Conversation2Janet :I’m not used to boats – Woah!Mark :Whoops!Kate :Watch out! You nearly hit me with that thing!Mark :Sorry! I didn’t mean to. … OK, we’re off!Kate :Maybe I should do the punting.Mark :It’s fine. I’ve got the hang of it now – give me a chance.Kate :Well, I’d like to have a go.Mark :Supposing I do the first hour. Then you can take over for a while, if you want to.Kate :Yes, great.Janet :You’re really good at it, Mark! This is fantastic! It’s exactly how I imagined lifehere! Look over there –isn’t it lovely!Kate :Yes, it is.…Janet :Kate, everything’s organized, isn’t it, for collecting the sponsorship money?Kate :Yes, I’ve arranged for people to get the money to me by next Friday –if they haven’t paid online. I’ll count it all up.Janet :Good. We’d better have a meeting soon after that, don’t you think? How much have we raised?Kate :About 600.Janet:Fantastic! I’m so enjoying this!Mark :Hey guys, I’ve got a suggestion – how about moving over to the bank and we can have our picnic! Hey, look, there’s Louise and Sophie!Mark :Whoo …Girls Mark!Janet :Are you all right?Mark :Er … Of course I’m all right. Kate, I think it’s your turn to punt!Outside viewV/OHarvard University in Cambridge is one of the best universities in the world. We spoke to Alex Jude, the university’s Head of Communications. He explained that Harvard looks for the best and most talented students from around the world.AlexHarvard actually seeks students from around the world, the best students that we can find, to study chemistry, or study literature, or study government, or business. Our business school is particularly well-known around the world, as is the medical school and law school, so, um, and, and the Kennedy School of government, for the John F. Kennedy School of Government, so, era, we do seek very, very talented students and we have open doors for them.V/OWe asked five students at Harvard to tell us what kind of social life they have.AshleyUm, well relaxing is a little hard to do around here, but basically, I mean, I still, I, I live nearby anyway, so I see a lot of my friends, and … Um, there’s a good social life here if you look for it. I go to the gym, run. So that’s what I do.AdamIt is whatever you want it to be. It’s good. If you wanna go out party, do anything you can. If you wanna sit in your room and study all night like my friend over here, you can also do that.BrianSocially, like you said, it’s, it’s a lot of what you make it. Um, we don’t have fraterniti es here, and so, you know, that’s, it’s obviously not as social. There’s not as many parties as there would be on another campus. Um, but on a Friday or Saturday night, there, there, there will be a party. Usually we end up studying until about 10 o’clock.And then we, and then we’ll go out and have fun maybe, or just watch a movie with friends, or, you know, whatever is going on for the night. JodieNot everyone would agree with me, obviously, but it’s, I think it’s a fun place to be.Int.Have you made a lot of friends?JodieOh, definitely.Int. :Mm.JodieMany.Int.What, what do you do with your friends?JodieUm, well, I like to go to concerts. I’m in three music groups, so I have lots of rehearsals during the week for that. Um, just do, you know, some fun things, on the weekend.V/OWe asked the Harvard students if they use theInternet.AshleyUm, I, I use it a fairly good amount. Um, our library system is online, so I use that a lot. And a lot of my classes, you know, have to do research papers. You can find a lot of information on there, so.Int.So how often do you use it, a week, a day?AshleyUm, I use it probably on more of a weekly basis. Maybe three or four times a week.BrianOh yes, definitely. We live through the Internet actually. Well, I do a lot of research through the Internet; follow me stocks on the Internet. Um, well, even though e-mail is not officially Internet, we, that’s how we communicate a lot at college, so, through the e-mail.JohnUm, I use the intern et mostly for, er, I’d say, sort of leisure purposes. I mean, I play, um, I use it for a lot of, I don’t, we don’t have TV in my room, so I use it, uh, uh, go to the CNN website, keep up on current events, things like that. Uh, I also, uh, you know, there’s some little games to play over the Internet. Um, just um, I go to to see what’s happening, follow the Boston Red Sox, things like that. Um, I think a lot of courses use it to post things, but I, I don’t usually use it that much for research, or things. I tend to use the libraries for such things, so.Listening inPassage1V/OHi, I’m Nick Carter, and this is SUR, your university radio station. This morning we went around campus to ask freshers –now half-way through their first year –the ques tion, “How are you finding uni?” Here are some of the answers we got.Speaker 1It’s cool. It’s everything I hoped it would be. I’m very ambitious, I want to be a journalist and I want to get to the top of the profession. I’ve started writing for the university newspaper so I’ve got my foot on the ladder already.Speaker 2I’m working hard and the teaching is as good as I expected. And I’ve made some good friends. But I’m very homesick. I’m Nigerian and my family’s so far away. I went home at Christmas for a month –that really helped, but man, I miss my family so much.Speaker 3“How am I finding uni?” It’s great. It’s not perfect, nothing is, but, like, I’ve got a brilliant sociallife, just brilliant, and I’ve made lots of friends. For the first few months I just didn’t do, really enough work. But I –I talked about it with my parents and I’m working harder now and getting good grades.Speaker 4Actually, I’ve been quite lonely to be honest. I’m a bit shy … everyone else seemed to find it so easy to make friends straight away. But things have been better recently –yeah, they have. I’ve joined a couple of clubs and like, it really helps to get to know people when you have shared interests. So, yeah –I’m feeling a lot happier now.Speaker 5Uni’s great, I love it. My only problem –and it’s quite a big problem – is money. My parents are both unemployed so, you know, they can’t help me financially. My grant just isn’t –it’s just not enough for me to live on, so I’ve taken a part-time job as a waitress – a lot of people I know, like a lot, have had to do the same. I don’t want to have huge debts at the end.Speaker 6I love my subject, History, and I’m, I’m getting fantastic teaching here. I want to be a university lecturer and that means I have to get a first. I have a good social life but work definitely comes first for me.Passage2Oxford and Cambridge – two universities so similar that they are often spoken of together as “Oxbridge”. They’re both in the UK, fairly near London, and both regula rly come top in any ranking of the world’s best universities.The two universities began within a century of each other. Oxford University, now 900 years old, was founded towards the end of the 11th century. In 1209 there was a dispute between the university and the townspeople of Oxford. As a result, some of the Oxford teachers left and founded a university in the town of Cambridge, some 84 miles away. Ever since then, the two institutions have been very competitive.Unlike most modern universities, both Oxford and Cambridge consist of a large number of colleges. Oxford has 39 and Cambridge 31. Many of these colleges have old and very beautiful architecture, and large numbers of tourists visit them.In all UK universities, you need good grades in the national exams taken at 18. But to get into Oxford and Cambridge, it’s not enough to get A grades in your exams. You also have to go for a long interview. In these interviews, students need to show that they are creative and capable of original thinking.Through the centuries, both universities have made huge contributions to British cultural life. They have produced great writers, world leaders and politicians. Cambridge, in particular, has produced scientists whose discoveries and inventions have changed our lives.Among the great university institutions is the world’s most famous debating society, the Oxford Union, where undergraduates get a chance to practise speaking in public. Cambridge’s comedy clubFootlights has produced many first-class comedians, while some of the UK’s most famous actors and actresses began their careers at The Oxford University Dramatic Society, known as OUDS. Then there’s the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race, which takes place every year in March or April, and is watched on television all over the UK.So with all this excellence in so many fields, it’s not surprising that the ambition of clever studentsall over the world is to attend either one of these great universities.Unit 2Inside viewConversation1Kate :Come in. Hey, Janet.Janet :Hi Kate, are you busy?Kate :Yes, I’m just doing an essay. But it’s great to see you. So what’s new?Janet :Well, nothing much.Kate :You look a bit fed up. What’s bugging you?Janet :Well, I had a phone call from my parents and it made me feel homesick. It happens every time they call, and it gets me down.Kate :I’m sorry to hear that. I know how you feel. I love speaking to my mum and dad, but I always feel miserable after the call.Janet :My dad doesn’t say much, and I want to spe ak to him, but I wish I knew what to say. Kate :Don’t let it get to you. My dad doesn’t say much on the phone either. I call, he answers the phone, and says, “Hi, I’ll pass you to your mother.” It’s really irritating.Janet :But I miss him and my mother a lot, and I like to hear his voice.Kate :Just tell him what you’re up to.Janet :Sometimes I feel as if I made a mistake leaving home and coming to Oxford. Sometimes I feel like a moody teenager.Kate :Try not to worry about it, Janet. It’s normal t o feel like that. I understand how you feel, but I bet everything will be fine next term. You’ll get used to it. Hey, why don’t you do what I do? Janet :What’s that?Kate :When my dad calls, I ask him for more money! He usually says no, but at least I getto hear his voice!Janet :Maybe. I’m sorry to take up your time, Kate, but I must go now. Bye!Kate :Wait a minute …!Conversation2Kate :I think I may have upset Janet last night.Mark :What happened?Kate :She came to see me. I was busy doing a n essay but I was really pleased to see her. She’d had a call from home, and said she was feeling homesick.Mark :Poor kid! It must be tough on you guys, living so far away from home.Kate :I tried to make her laugh, told her not to worry about it, and that it was normal to feel miserable. Suddenly she looked miserable, and then she got up and said, “I must go now” and left my room. It was really sudden. I felt as if I’d said something wrong.Mark :Maybe she was just being polite. It was probably because she realized you were working and didn’t want to disturb you.Kate :I just wonder if she found it difficult to talk about her feelings with me. Maybe I shouldn’t have tried to make her laugh? Perhaps she thought I wasn’t taking her seriously.Mark :I w ouldn’t worry about it. Put yourself in her shoes. How would you feel if you were a student at college in China?Kate :I know. That’s why I feel bad. If only she had stayed longer! I wish I could have helped her more.Janet :Hey, everyone!Mark :Hi Janet, you look cheerful!Janet :Yes, I’ve just got my essay back. I got an alpha minus!Kate :What an amazing grade! Well done.Mark :I’m really happy for you, Janet.Janet :I feel on top of the world!Outside viewSebastienHi. I’m Sebastien. I’m from Germany. Um, the idea of IQ of a measure of your brain power has been around for a while, but recently there’s been this new idea of the EQ –your emotional quotient. And by now, it’s actually almost being regarded as more important. If you look at it, bu sinesses will ... Well, they will prefer employing people with great EQ. Well, of course, IQ cannot be disregarded, but um, EQ does have its importance as well. Uh, I believe that, um, (I)mean, people, most people will have, um, their basic means of communicating with other people. Most people are somewhat socially adept, and just like most people have, you know, a basic general knowledge. But then, what I think really is the difference betweenIQ and EQ, I mean, you can have a “brainiac”, and they will be great at most things they do, but if you just can’t get along with him, if you just can’t communicate with him, I mean, you know, he’s not really that useful.KimHi. This is Kim. I’m originally from Korea, and I was raised in California. And today, we a re going to talk about the differences between IQ and EQ –IQ meaning your intelligence, EQ meaning your emotions. Now, in … When I was, when I was a little, little boy in Korea, I had to take … I think I’d taken like two or three IQ tests before the age o f ten, which is when I moved to California. So, I guess we stress a lot of importance on intelligence, on having great IQ scores. But after I moved to the States, I learnt how to associate with people, and along the lines that this word EQ came up, you kno w, emotional, caring about … It’s basically how you deal with people, how you make people feel, and how people make you feel.I think they’re equally as, as important, but it seems that in the Eastern world they kind of stress on that a lot more back in the days. But I think again, you know, now that with Internet and people are communicating so much faster, there’s a better mixture of the two I think. There’s a stress on EQ in Korea as well, and a stress on IQ in the States. Thank you.TedHello. My na me is Ted, and I’m from the United States of America. Today, I’m going to talk a little bit about IQ or EQ – which is most important, or which is more important. Now, for a long time when I was growing up, people said, “IQ. What’s your IQ? Take an IQ test.” But then EQ, your emotions, how you interact with people, that became very important. And I think they’re … that people might be onto something with that, because your EQ – how you deal with people, how you interact with people – is important. Now, a big part of this, in my opinion, is listening. I know I’m talking a lot right now, but if you want to get along well with people, you have to listen to them, so just take a minute, maybe shut your mouth for a minute, and listen to others, and then you can understand and communicate with them in a better way. So, part of EQ, I think, is listening – listening to others – and it can be more important than IQ.Listening inPassage1PresenterWe’re fortunate to have as our guest today Dr Jenna Hudson, who has j ust written a book about how colours affect us in our surroundings, especially in the world of advertising. It’s called Market Colours. Dr Hudson, which are the most common colours in advertising and marketing? Dr HudsonWell, of course, it depends what image the marketing team wish to project with their products. So for example, we often think of blue as a cold colour, but it also makes you feel peaceful, quiet, and it doesn’t suggest strong emotions. So it’s a favourite for banks and insurance companies, who wish to suggest the image that they are trustworthy. And for selling products, it’s often used to suggest something is pure and fresh.What about red?You can sell almost anything with red. It’s a hot colour, which suggests a feeling of energy and even passion. It grabs your attention, and can make people buy almost anything. You often see red on magazine covers. But if you use it too much, it looks cheap and may make people tired. And orange has a similar effect to red, it’s upbeat and happy, it s uggests pleasant feelings and images. Most people react well to orange, and it’s especially popular in advertising and on packaging for baked food.What about yellow, for instance?Yellow is the colour of sunshine and it’s a positive, happy colour, so it’s used a lot in advertising. But it’s also often used for warning signs, direction signs, and so on, where you have to read the message quickly and at a distance.What about less popular colours for advertising?Surprisingly, green isn’t used much in advertising except for garden products. It’s friendly and restful. It can be cool and soothing, the colour of apples and mint, but it can also be quite strong and many people associate it with unpleasant ideas of decay or slimy creatures. But most colours ar e not primary colours, they’re a combination. Absolutely. So yellow-orange is common, and often used to give an impression of style and class, it looks like gold. But it’s not often used in letters because it’s not very strong. And yellow-green reminds people of feeling sick.Blue-green works well as a cool colour, suggesting freshness, and is sometimesused for toothpaste products, bathroom products, food and household cleaning products. It has many of the advantages of blue without the disadvantages of green.Fascinating.Thank you very much, DrScriptsHudson. Market Colours by Dr JennaHudson is on sale from next week,priced £15.99 …Passage2Presenter :What makes you embarrassed, Sally?Sally :Oh, I’m easily embarrassed. If anybody notices me or looks at me, I get very embarrassed. When people sing me Happy Birthday on my birthday, I get very embarrassed.Presenter :And what makes you upset?Sally :When people are selfish, people who think only of themselves. And cruelty –I can’t bear people who are cruel, especially to animals or children.Presenter :Jake, what makes you depressed?Jake :I hate it when it rains, and I don’t like people who look down on me, who think they’re superior to me without any reason.Presenter :And what makes you angry?Jake :When people don’t behave properly in public, bad behaviour like dropping litter or people pushing each other on the bus or the train.Presenter :Andrew, what makes you cheerful?Andrew :I like to see everyone around me being happy and having a positive attitude towards the future, optimistic people.Presenter :And what makes you jealous?Andrew :Well, to be honest, I just never feel jealous. I can’t see the point of it.Presenter :Monica, what makes you proud?Monica :I’m proud when I’m suc cessful, especially in my work. Being recognized by my boss for what I can do makes me feel really proud. Oh, and my family. I’m very proud of them. Presenter :And what makes you nervous?Monica :Every time I teach a new class. The night before I’m very nervous. You don’t know what the kids are going to be like and how they might behave, or if they’re going to like you. Presenter :Anything else?Monica :Doing interviews like this.Unit 3 Crime watchInside viewConversation1Kate :So, what did you think of the movie?Mark :It was good but I thought it was too long.Kate :Yes, me too.Kate :Hey, where’s my bike? I don’t believe it! It’s gone!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!Mark :It’s a really mean thing to do, steal a bike.Kate :It was a mountain bike and it cost a fortune –I don’t have the money to buy another one. Mark :Listen, I’ll go down the street and see if I can see anyone with it. Why don’t you go into that shop and see if they’ve seen anything suspicious? I’ll be back in a minute.Kate :OK.…Kate :Well?Mark :No luck. What did they say in the shop?Kate :I asked the shopkeeper if she’d seen anything–Mark :And?Kate :She said she hadn’t. I guess it was a long shot. She advised me to report it to the police. But according to her, bikes get stolen all the time around here.Mark :Listen, let’s get back so you can report it.Kate :I’ve got no bike.I’m just so upset!Mark :It’s not far to college. Come on!Conversation2Mark :So did you ring the police?Kate :Yes. I went to the police station to report it.Mark :What did they say?Kate :No one’s found it. This woman said that Oxford has the fif th highest rate of bike theftin the country!Mark :You’re joking!Kate :That’s what she said.Mark :What else did she say?Kate :She told me that sometimes you do get bikes back – the thieves use them and then abandon them, apparently, and then people find them and report them.Mark :So you might get it back.Kate :I hope so, Mark, I really do. It’s just too much you know? But … um … what else? She told me to go to this sale they have of abandoned bikes. She thinks I might find it there. But it’s on ly every two months, I can’t wait till then! Honestly, Mark, I’m really furious!Mark :You can always buy a cheap bike on eBay.Kate :Hello … Speaking … You found it! Where was it? Is it …? Oh, that’s fantastic news! There was a lamp and a basket on it … Right … OK, thank you, I’ll be in tomorrow morning to pick it up. Unbelievable! This guy found it!Mark :Brilliant! Was that the police?Kate :Yes. What they said was, someone dumped it outside this guy’s backyard.Mark :That’s so strange!Kate :The lamp’s been stolen and the basket.Mark :Forget about it! You’re lucky to get it back!Outside viewPart1PresenterDodgy deals aren’t the only problems associated with doorstep sellers. Your door step presents these unannounced visitors with a real opportunity to undertake distraction burglary where they often pose as bogus officials to gain access to your home.I’m joined now by Ian Holt, from Thames Valley Police. Ian, just outline for me what does distraction burglary actually entail?IanHoltW ell basically what happens is, somebody uses a story to get inside somebody’s house and then they steal items, usually cash or small items of jewellery.PresenterAnd what are the different techniques that are commonly used?IanHoltWell basically th e er … the people that commit this crime move from area to area, er … they will look at an area, they will try and pick a particular target and they can find that by looking at property, it may beer, an uncut garden, it may be repairs that need doing to the property.Something that indicates that there’s, there’s a vulnerable person in there. It … usually, it’s an elderly person that lives there. Is this quite a common problem now? It is becoming more common. To get it in perspective, of the 14,000 burglaries that were in Thames Valley last year, we had reported 800 crimes of distraction burglary.But, it … there’s a slight increase this year over last year’s figures.OK, you mentioned some of the victimsbeing elderly. What other people aretargeted?Well, unfortunately, with this type of offence, it is the vulnerable in society and the elderly. The, the national average, if there’s such a thing as a, a victim for this type of crime, is a white female aged 81 years.And what about things that people can do to prevent it happening, basically?Well the things they can do are very, very simple. The difficulty comes, is that some of these people, er … it’s very difficult for them to remember what to do. But the three things we, we always say is: stop, cha in and check. And that’s stop before you open the door to make sure who’s on the other side. Always apply a chain. If you haven’t got a chain, fit a chain to the door, or a door bar if you’ve got difficulty in handling a chain with arthritic fingers.But also when you answer the door, check the identity of the person there. Generally the offenders say they are from the Water Board or from utilities. They may say they’re from a charity or even from local authority. But generally, a utility will be in uniform.Ask for their identification. A genuine person will not mind you doing that and will wait until you can check them out. If you do need to check them, phone the number on, on your last bill. What won’t happen is that if it is a bogus caller, they will b ecome unnerved by this reaction and they will leave.PresenterOK and there’s also a couple of gadgets new on the market that also can help as well. Just talk us through that.IanHoltCertainly, yes. The … a spy er … viewer is fairly standard. But fo r elderly who may have poor eyesight there’s a spyscope which actually makes it a lot easier for them to see who’s outside.As I mentioned before about the door bar, again, it can be easier to apply than the chain. Very reasonable priced er, and something that is fairly new … as I mentioned before it’s very difficult for some of these people to remember what they have to do when they go to the door and that’s why they become victims.And this item is called a Memo Minder and actually you can record a mess age on there and it’s nice to have a grand-daughter or somebody to record a message, but every time the person approaches the door it reminds them with a voice to say “Putyour chain on.”Listening inPassage1Patrick :I read a funny story today in the paper – true story.Steve :Go on, then.Patrick :OK. This 72-year old guy stole a pair of trousers from a department store in Paris. Asecurity man saw him and alerted the police and they were waiting for him when he came out of the shop. The shoplifter started running, but the policeman soon caught up with him. The man thenbit the policeman on his arm several times.Steve :He bit the policeman?Patrick :Yes – you have to remember, he was 72.Steve :I’d forgotten that.Patrick :Problem was, it didn’t hurt the policeman at all, ’cause the guy had forgotten to put his false teeth in before he left home.Steve :Very funny!Patrick :And the moral of the story is –Steve :Always remember to wear your false teeth if you’re going to bite someone.Patrick :That’s good. I read a funny crime story the other day. Let’s see … yeah … this guy … this guy robbed a supermarket somewhere in America –I can’t remember where exactly – anyway, he got away with about 4,000 dollars. The next week the local newspaper reported the story but said he’d stolen 6,000 dollars. The thief rang the newspaper office to complain. He said, “Look, I only took 4,000 dollars. I’m wondering if the supermarket manager took another 2,000 and said I’d taken it. I did not take 6,000, I promise you.”Steve :He was probably telling the truth.Patrick :He probably was. Anyway, the newspaper managed to keep the guy talking while they rang the police. And the police traced the call – the guy was ringing from a phone booth – and they arrested him while he was still talking to the newspaper.Steve :That’s good. Stupid guy! I’ve got another true story … This – this – old guy was in court for some crime –and he fell asleep. His case began and his lawyer stood up and said, “My client pleads not gu ilty.” The man suddenly woke up, but wasn’t sure what was happening. He jumped up and shouted, “I plead guilty! I plead guilty!”Patrick :So what happened?Steve :The judge allowed him to plead not guilty.Patrick :That’s the best, I think.Passage2Presenter :You’re listening to Kevin Fallon and my topic for today is street crime. Being mugged is something that can happen to anyone –and it’s a very frightening experience. So it’s positive when you hear of someone who was attacked by a mugger and defeated them – especially when that person is a woman. Anna Black was attacked by a mugger. She’s here to tell us about it. How long ago did this happen, Anna?News 24/7 Unit 4AnnaJust over a week ago. The day it happened,I was coming home from work a bit laterthan usual – I think it was about seven. Iwas on my mobile phone, talking to myhusband.PresenterAnd it was still daylight?Anna :Yes. Anyway, suddenly, someone pulled my hair from behind – and at the same time they。
