What’s that?KateSponsoring is when people pay you to do something – like run a long distance. Sopeople would be sponsoring students to punt.JanetWhat a great idea! I’d love to join you!MarkThat’s why we’re telling you about it. So that’s decided then. Let’s make a list of thingswe need to do.KateI’ll do that. One of the first things we should do is choose the charity.MarkYes. And choose a day for the event. And we need to design the sponsorship form. I’ve gotone here.KateThat looks fine, but we must change the wording. Who wants to do that?MarkI’ll do that. What have we got so far?KateChoose a charity. Also a day for the event. Change the wording on the sponsorship form …Um … We have to decide where the puntwill start from.MarkCherwell Boathouse, no question! It's a very beautiful route from here, apparently.KateI’m with you on that.JanetMe too …Conversation2JanetI’m not used to boats – Woah!MarkWhoops!KateWatch out! You nearly hit me with that thing!MarkSorry! I didn’t mean to. … OK, we’re off!KateMaybe I should do the punting.MarkIt’s fine. I’ve got the hang of it now – give me a chance.KateWell, I’d like to have a go.MarkSupposing I do the first hour. Then you can take over for a while, if you want to.KateYes, great.JanetYou’re really good at it, Mark! This is fantastic! It’s exactly how I imagined life here! Look over there –isn’t it lovely!KateYes, it is.…JanetKate, everything’s organized, isn’t it, for collecting the sponsorship money? KateYes, I’ve arranged for p eople to get themoney to me by next Friday –if they haven’t paid online. I’ll count it all up.JanetGood. We’d better have a meeting soon after that, don’t you think? How much have weraised?JanetAbout 600.KateFantastic! I’m so enjoying this!MarkHey 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!MarkWhoo …Girls Mark!JanetAre you all right?MarkEr … 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 studygovernment, or business. Our business school is particularly well-known around the world, as is the medical school and lawschool, so, um, and, and the Kennedy School of government, or the John F. Kennedy School of Government, so, er, we do seek very, very talented students and we have open doors for them.V/OWe asked five students at Harvard to tell uswhat 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 fraternities 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’l l 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 my 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 u se 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 question, “How are you finding uni?” Her e are some of the answers we got.Speaker 1It’s cool. It’s everything I hoped it would be. I’m very ambit ious, 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 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 fe eling alot 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 bo th in the UK, fairly near London, and both regularly 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 betweenthe 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 andpoliticians. 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 club Footlights 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 2 Mixed feelingsInside viewConversation1KateCome in. Hey, Janet.JanetHi Kate, are you busy?KateYes, I’m just doing an essay. But it’s great to see you. So what’s new?JanetWell, nothing much.KateYou look a bit fed up. What’s bu gging you?JanetWell, I had a phone call from my parents andit made me feel homesick. It happens every time they call, and it gets me down.KateI’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.JanetMy dad doesn’t say much, and I want to speak to him, but I wish I knew what to say.KateDon’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.JanetBut I miss him and my mother a lot, and I like to hear his voice.KateJust tell him what you’re up to.JanetSometimes I feel as if I made a mistake leaving home and coming to Oxford. Sometimes I feel like a moody teenager.KateTry 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?JanetWhat’s that?KateWhen my dad calls, I ask him for more money! He usually says no, but at least I get to hear his voice!JanetMaybe. I’m sorry to take up your time, Kate, but I must go now. Bye!KateWait a minute …!Conversation2KateI think I may have upset Janet last night. MarkWhat happened?KateShe 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.MarkPoor kid! It must be tough on you guys, living so far away from home. KateI 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.MarkMaybe she was just being polite. It was probably because she realized you were working and didn’t want to disturb you.KateI just wonder if she found it difficult to talka bout her feelings with me. Maybe I shouldn’t have tried to make her laugh? Perhaps she thought I wasn’t taking her seriously.MarkI wouldn’t worry about it. Put yourself in her shoes. How would you feel if you were a student at college in China?KateI know. That’s why I feel bad. If only she had stayed longer! I wish I could have helped her more.JanetHey, everyone!MarkHi Janet, you look cheerful!JanetYes, I’ve just got my essay back. I got an alpha minus!KateWhat an amazing grade! Well done.MarkI’m really happy for you, Janet.JanetI 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 between IQ 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 are going to talk about the differences between IQ and EQ –IQ meaning your intelligence, EQ meaning you r 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 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, 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 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 yellow-green reminds people of feeling sick. Blue-green works well as a cool colour, suggesting freshness, and is sometimes used 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, Dr Presenter .Hudson. Market Colours by Dr Jenna Hudson is on sale from next week, priced £15.99 …Passage2PresenterWhat makes you embarrassed, Sally?SallyOh, 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.PresenterAnd what makes you upset?SallyWhen people are selfish, people who think only of themselves. And cruelty–I can’t bear people who are cruel, especially to animals or children.PresenterJake, what makes you depressed?JakeI 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.PresenterAnd what makes you angry?JakeWhen people don’t behave prope rly in public,bad behaviour like dropping litter or people pushing each other on the bus or the train.PresenterAndrew, what makes you cheerful?AndrewI like to see everyone around me being happy and having a positive attitude towards the future, optimistic people.PresenterAnd what makes you jealous?AndrewWell, to be honest, I just never feel jealous. I can’t see the point of it.PresenterMonica, what makes you proud?MonicaI’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.PresenterAnd what makes you nervous?MonicaEvery 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.PresenterAnything else?MonicaDoing interviews like this.

It’s gone!MarkIt was next to mine, you chained it up!KateSomeone’s stolen it! Oh, how could they!MarkOh, Kate!KateHow could someone have done this! The creep!MarkIt’s a really mean thing to do, steal a bike.KateIt was a mountain bike and it cost a fortune –I don’t have the money to buy another one.MarkListen, I’ll go down the street and see if I can see anyone with it. Why don’t y ou go into that shop and see if they’ve seen anything suspicious? I’ll be back in a minute.KateOK.…KateWell?MarkNo luck. What did they say in the shop?KateI ask ed the shopkeeper if she’d seen anything –MarkAnd?KateShe 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.MarkListen, let’s get back so you can report it.KateI’ve got no bike. I’m just so upset!MarkIt’s not far to college. Come on!Conversation2MarkSo did you ring the police?KateYes. I went to the police station to report it.MarkWhat did they say?KateNo one’s found it. This woman said that Oxford has the fifth highest rate of bike theft in the country!MarkYou’re joking!KateThat’s what she said.MarkWhat else did she say? KateShe 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.MarkSo you might get it back.KateI 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 mig ht find it there. But it’s only every two months, I can’t wait till then! Honestly, Mark, I’m really furious!MarkYou can always buy a cheap bike on eBay.KateHello … Speaking … You found it! Where was it? Is i t …? 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!MarkBrilliant! Was that the police?KateYes. What they said was, someone dumped itoutside this guy’s backyard.MarkThat’s so strange!KateThe lamp’s been stolen and the basket.MarkForget about it! You’re lucky to get it back! Outside viewPart1PresenterDodgy deals aren’t the only problems associated with doorstep sellers. Your doorstep presents these unannounced visitors with a real opportunity to undertake distraction burglary where they often pose as bogus officials to gain access t o your home. I’m joined now by Ian Holt, from Thames Valley Police. Ian, just outline for me what does distraction burglary actually entail?Ian HoltWell 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?Ian HoltWell basically 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 victims being elderly. What other people are targeted?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. 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 saythey’re from a charity or even from localauthority. But generally, a utility will be inuniform. 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 become 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.Ian HoltCertainly, yes. The … a spy er … viewer is fairly standard. But for elderly who may have poor eyesight there’s a spyscope which actually makes it a lot easier for them to seewho’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 message 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 “Put your chain on.”Listening inPassage1PatrickI read a funny story today in the paper – truestory.SteveGo on, then.PatrickOK. 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 man then bit the policeman on his arm several times.SteveHe bit the policeman?PatrickYes – you have to remember, he was 72.SteveI’d forgotten that.PatrickProblem was, it didn’t hu rt the policeman at all, ’cause the guy had forgotten to put his false teeth in before he left home. SteveVery funny!PatrickAnd the moral of the story is –SteveAlways remember to wear your false teeth if you’re going to bite someone.PatrickThat’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 man ager took another 2,000 and said I’d taken it. I did not take 6,000, I promise you.”SteveHe was probably telling the truth.PatrickHe 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.SteveThat’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 guilty.” The man suddenly woke up, but wasn’t sure what was happening. He jumped up and shouted, “I plead guilty! I plead guilty!”。
