Amy. So, how are you doing?


Oh, hi Michael. School is so crazy these days, and when I'm not at school, I'm studying at home.
Hey, listen. I'm getting together with Oliver and Theresa tonight, and a few of our other friends are going to join
us. [Oh.] And, we're well, we're going out to eat and then see a film. Why don't you come with us?
Hey, I'd love to, but I have to revise for a test tomorrow.
Ah, come on. We're planning on having dinner around 7:30 and then seeing a film at 8:30. We should be home
by 11:30 midnight at the latest. I mean you're always saying that you don't have any friends and that you
never go out Come on!
I I don't think I can make it this time. I haven't been feeling well lately.
Yeah, because you study too much. Well, we'll have a lot of fun. Come on! Relax. [Well] And it's Theresa's
birthday, too. And we're giving her a small birthday party after the film. Come on. Best friends always stick
together.
Oh. Okay.
Great. I'll pick you up at 7:00.
Okay. See you then, but I have to be back by 11:30.
Ah, 11:30 midnight. It's all the same. See you at 7:00.

I am thirty years old, rather tall and I have dark eyes and long brown hair. I wear casual clothes as I teach students in a
relaxed atmosphere. I enjoy my job because I get to meet and help so many different people from all over the world. During
my spare time, I like playing tennis, which I play at least three times a week. I also love listening to classical music and I
must admit that I spend a lot of money on buying new CDs! I live in a pretty seaside town on the Portuguese coast. I enjoy
eating great Portuguese food and laughing with the likable people who work in the restaurant where I usually go.

MY DUBLIN
Temple Bar is the coolest place on the planet! You can eat all kinds of food here. There are lots of cafs, pubs and music
clubs too. Most pubs have live music. Outside of the pubs and clubs, you will usually find a lively atmosphere, sometimes
even street musicians or other kind of outdoor entertainers. Once I saw the famous band U2 there.

Green is the colour of Ireland and there are lots of green spaces here. Phoenix Park is one of the largest walled city parks in
Europe. Here you can see Dublin Zoo, the largest zoo in Ireland and one of Dublin's most popular attractions. It houses
more than 700 animals and tropical birds from around the world. I love going there for a picnic with my friends.
I also love going shopping in Grafton Street. Its in the city centre, and there are always lots of shoppers and street

Dublin was a Viking city called Dyflin. The Viking Splash Tour is a ride in an amphibious truck which goes on land as well as

Lets Move!
The Wanted, Carly Rae Jepsen, Bella Thorne, and Austin Mahone are just a few of the celebs who recorded a music
video to get kids across the country to get up and move!
Michelle Obama is the one who has started a campaign called Lets Move. She wants American kids to eat better and be
more active. We dont want an unhealthy future for our kids or our country, she says. We have to act.
Whats the campaign doing? Its introducing healthier food, such as salad bars, into school canteens across the country. Its
building more sports facilities and finding safe ways to cycle or walk to school.
Mrs Obamas famous friends are helping out too. Beyonc has made a dance routine DVD for US school students. But not
everyone thinks its a good idea. Some people say, Let parents and families decide what to eat. Its not the governments
business what people put on their plates.
Do the students like the new salad bars as they wait in the lunch line? Yes, says pupil Luciano Cabrera of Miami. Salad
bars are important because salads are nutritious and help you and your bones grow.
Americas problem
The statistics are scary. Over the past three decades, childhood obesity rates have tripled and one in three kids is
overweight. This can lead to diabetes, heart disease, cancer, high blood pressure and asthma in children. This initiative

Play it smart with body art


Hi, my name is Charlie, and I'm a freelance fashion reporter.
During adolescence teens normally want to establish their own identity. They wear unusual clothes, listen to different music
and some want to express themselves through body art like tattoos and piercing. In fact, tattoos can be unique and
individual, but some teens decide to get a tattoo just to rebel against their parents or because of peer pressure. This is a
serious issue. While hairstyles and the way they dress are easy to change, tattoos and body piercing are usually permanent.
And what you find cool at sixteen may seem ridiculous to you at thirty-five. Having a tattoo removed can be difficult and
costly, and body piercing can leave scars and unwanted holes.
So Im going to give you some advice. Lets start with the considerations you need to take into account and the decisions
you must make before you set foot into a tattoo or piercing shop.
First, you should think about where you want the tattoo or piercing, and evaluate that area, for how it will stretch, if it will
cause you any problems when you choose your career, etc. Getting a tattoo on your arms or your neck, or a piercing on your
tongue, can stop you from getting hired at certain places.
Another thing you should consider is the pain level because these procedures are usually painful, can cause allergic
reactions and carry other health risks. When you get your piercing, for example, get a good metal because cheap metal can
irritate your skin.
The next thing to do, is look at the possible tattooing and piercing studios, and find one with a good reputation so that you
can feel safe.
And of course, you mustnt forget to ask for your parents permission; its essential.
These are some of the things you need to think of before getting a tattoo or a piercing.

The Internet
Presenter: Today were talking to two students, Cathy and Mark, about the Internet. Lets start with you, Mark. Do you like
surfing the Internet?
Mark:
Yes, in my free time, I really like surfing the Internet. When I get home from school, I turn on my computer, wait
until it boots up completely, and then I go online.
Presenter: What about you, Cathy?
Cathy:
I dont spend much time surfing the web; only when I need to. I have used the Internet for some projects and
homework assignments. I used the Internet for revision, for my GCSEs, and that was really useful, to be able to
get online answers. I found that incredibly helpful. But you might have to trail through hundreds of sites until you
find an actually relevant site.
Presenter: So, do you think the Internet is a useful tool for students?
Mark:
Yes, of course its useful for anyone. The advent of the Internet has vastly changed the way in which people
search for and access information. News travels more quickly than ever, and current affairs can be discussed all
over the world instantaneously via forums, blogs, and social networks.
Presenter: Now theres the question of social networks. How long do you spend on social networking sites every week?
Mark:
Longer than I should. I have to confess that I check my account every day. I chat with my classmates and
friends almost every day. I have lots of friends, but I dont accept just anyone to be my friend; it has to be
someone I know and trust.
Presenter: What about you, Cathy?
Cathy:
Oh, Ive opened an account, but I dont use it much. I dont like virtual friends. Many friends you meet on a
social networking site arent really friends: theyre people youve met through other people for five minutes at a
party. And then they share everything online. They post photos and everyone is trying to look so cool in their
photos and its so fake, not who they really are. Everyone wants you to think theyre having a great time and
are so happy. Ridiculous.
Presenter: Well it seems that you dont really like social networks or dont like them at all!

What is more British than the Queen, a cup of tea or the Beatles?
Er ... red London buses?
No! Heres a clue: You can eat it.
Ah, then it must be fish and chips.
Correct! In two different surveys, people said the most British thing was fish and chips.
And here are three fish and chip facts.
One. Britains first fish and chip shop opened more than 150 years ago, in 1860 in London!
Two. Fish and chips are Britains favourite takeaway!
Three. A portion of fish and chips has 595 calories thats fewer than pizza or a burger and chips.
Now, Jim, heres the big question what do you have on your fish and chips? Do you have ketchup or do you
have salt and vinegar?
It has to be salt and vinegar.
Me, too! Lets see who agrees with us. Our reporter Alan is outside a fish and chip shop near the studio. Hi, Alan!
Hi, Jenny. Theres a delicious smell coming from this fish and chip shop, which is called Mr Chips.
Is it busy?
Its lunchtime, so its very busy. Theres a queue outside. Three students have just bought their fish and chips.
Excuse me, can I ask you a question?
Yes, but hurry up Im starving!
What did you put on your fish and chips ketchup or salt and vinegar?
Always ketchup you cant have chips without ketchup!
How about you?
Definitely salt and vinegar. Its a crime to put ketchup on fish and chips.
So thats one for ketchup and one for salt and vinegar. Our third student gets the deciding vote.
I used to live in Wigan, in north-west England and up there; we have gravy on our chips, or curry sauce! But they
dont serve it here in London, so now I have ketchup!
So, Jenny, ketchup wins here at Mr Chips. I havent had any lunch yet, so Im going to get some chips!
Good idea! Thanks Alan!

Ftima Lopes
Ftima Lopes is a famous Portuguese fashion designer. She was born on March 8th, 1965 on the Portuguese island of
Madeira. She was born and grew up in its capital city, Funchal. Since an early age she showed an interest in fashion and
during her adolescence, unhappy with what the shops had to offer in terms of clothing, started to design her own clothes.
Being fluent in English, French and German, she worked as a tourist guide for a local travel agency.
In 1990 Ftima moved to Lisbon, where she believed she could better pursue a career as a fashion designer. With a
friend she opened a boutique named "Versus", which sold mainly clothes from international designers.
In 1992 Ftima Lopes launched her own brand. She presented her first collection and opened the first Ftima Lopes
boutique.
In 1996, the designer opened her first international store in Paris and also expanded to other areas.
At the same time she began to diversify her collections by creating bags and shoes for both men and women.
In December 1998, she started the management of the model agency "FACE MODELS" in Lisbon.
In March 1999 Ftima Lopes became the first Portuguese fashion designer to take part in Paris Fashion Week, seeing
her creations along side the major international fashion designers.
Always irreverent, in 2000 she surprised the world by appearing on a catwalk herself in Paris wearing the world's most
expensive bikini, made out of gold and diamonds, with an estimated value of one million dollars.
In 2003 she opened her first brand store in the United States, located in Melrose Avenue in the city of Los Angeles.
Ftima Lopes is responsible for the official outfits of the Portuguese football team.
She has been recognized with several awards.

Our school is going to create a Green Club.
First, of course, the Club must have a name. This name is going to be chosen by the students at the first meeting.
This is a club for children and teenagers between the ages of eight and seventeen who want to improve the environment.
The most important factor of course is that the students should be interested and willing to take action.
Members can participate in workshops, field trips and interact with experts on various environmental issues they can
develop projects and other activities.
They will help solve environmental problems and make new friends too.
For teachers, it is a wonderful opportunity to create awareness; shape attitudes and help students participate in activities
in the real world.
The club will be free and the only thing they need to bring next Monday are gloves. We are going to plant some trees
around the school playground.
If you are interested, you can join us and make a difference.

TIME OUT
Unusual Hobbies
People discover or invent the oddest activities to occupy their time never wondering if what they're doing is actually a
waste of time or not. I collect plain, glossy chocolate wrappers, but only because I have a major crafts project on my mind,
so its not so weird, right? Some people do the strangest things, and somehow get others involved as well.
Have you ever wanted to step out of the crowd and do something different? Are you the kind of person who likes the
crazy side of life? Then the unusual hobbies listed here in this report will be quite helpful.
UFO Spotting
A lot of people claim to have seen a UFO (unidentified flying object) and a smaller number have tales of meeting an ALF
(alien-life form) or even being abducted by extraterrestrials. Read through some books or browse through the web, and find
out about places that have a maximum number of sightings. Get a good pair of binoculars and a video camera to record
anything that you may spot. But dont take foolish risks: go in a group, and always ask permission before you enter private
property.
Starting a Fan Club
Gathering a group of people who find a common interest in, say, a famous sportsman or sportswoman, or actor or
actress, or band or singer would seem to be fun. You could start up your own club where the fans can get together and
watch documentaries about your heroes and heroines, movie marathons or concerts for hours on end over the weekend.
Decorate the fan club room with posters and memorabilia that you can browse around. You can buy such things from
souvenir stores or second-hand shops, or even bring them from the celebrities hometowns. Celebrate their birthdays, read
up on them extensively and tour the country to catch a glimpse of your idols in the flesh. And, of course, dont forget your
cameras and autograph books!
Tea/Coffee/Chocolate Wrappers Collection
Travel the country or around the world (or go to specialist shops in your town) looking for exotic blends of coffee, tea and
chocolate products keeping the packaging (tins, jars, packets and wrappers) for collection purposes. You can add details
below each one, like where you got it from and the date when you bought it. You can write an account of how these products
are grown, processed and served. If you do it well and send it to the manufacturers, they will probably send you a letter of
thanks and they might even send you a box of their products to share with your friends.

One Direction's Favourite Foods Revealed!
One Direction are rich and famous, but that doesn't mean they're picky. The boys actually have pretty simple requests when
it comes to what they want to eat!
The band's personal chef, Sara Nicholas, revealed what each band member wants to munch on while they're touring,
and the guys don't have diva demands to fill their bellies.
"Liam Payne likes his bacon, steak and vegetables, while Louis eats anything, but a bowl of Special K is his favourite,"
Sara said. "Zayn is very easy to please. He just likes pasta with spicy chicken. He's not a foodie and eats whatever's going."
Niall Horan isn't too difficult, either! "Niall likes more simple food, like sausage and mash, pies, creamy chicken pasta or
chicken."
The only one who's a little choosy about what he chews? Harry Styles because he wants to gain weight! A source said,
"He's doing extra weight training and fitness as he's desperate to stop looking 'boyish' and become more manly."
As for what they sip when theyre backstage? No alcohol here! Louis loves to drink tea, but the guys mainly drink juice
and water and the occasional soda. Yum!

LISTENING TEST 4 SCRIPT (P. 139)


Zooey Deschanel, Age 17, to Vogue:
'Is Insecurity Something You Want To Advocate?'
Now making the internet rounds: a letter that teenage Zooey Deschanel wrote to Vogue.
Why would you want to limit the spectrum of beauty to an "ideal" when you, as a popular women's magazine, have the
opportunity to expand it? I don't think any woman should have to feel as if she needs to shove herself into an "ideal" to be
beautiful. Beauty should be something that is celebrated and something that is enjoyable, not something that people should
feel uncomfortable about achieving. Most of the women, and certainly most of the adolescent girls, in the United States do
not feel completely secure about themselves, especially about their appearance; is insecurity something you want to
advocate? As American women, we don't need discouragement, but inspiration.

Part 1
Interview with Sylvia Earle
Ever since she was knocked over by a wave as a little girl, oceanographer Dr Sylvia Earle has been fascinated by the
ocean. One of the world's best known marine scientists and a National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence, Earle loves to
dive deep into the ocean. She has spent much of her life in or under the waves. Now in her effort to save the oceans, she
wants to make it uncool to eat a tuna fish sandwich and she also wants to understand the impact that humans have on the
ocean each time we eat seafood or use pesticide on the garden bugs.

Part 2
How did you get to be a scientist or explorer?
Earle: It was easy. I started out as a kid and never did grow up. The best scientists and explorers have the attributes of kids!
They ask questions and have a sense of wonder. They have curiosity. Who, what, where, why, when, and how! They
never stop asking questions and I never stop asking questions just like a five-year-old.
What do you daydream about?
Earle: Going under water...Saving the ocean...Being a fish Or a blue whale, the biggest animal on Earth and to sense
sound that has travelled over hundreds, maybe thousands of miles. I daydream about that, doesnt everybody?
What is the best place you have ever travelled to?
Earle: Its always the next place. And I love to go back to the places I have known over the years, because one of the things
that motivates me above all else is to do whatever I can to make the world aware of how much is changing and how
fast its changing, and what the consequences are for us.
The impact that humans, our species has had on the Earth since I was a child is greater than during all preceding
human history put together. The pressure that we are putting on the land, the air, the water, and wildlife is severe. The
natural environment that keeps us alive has been stressed significantly.
I have had the privilege of spending more time than others in the ocean and seen things that others havent. People
need to know. You cant care if you dont know and most people simply dont know.
Why is the ocean so important to life on Earth?
Earle: The ocean is the basis of our life support system. Take away life in the ocean and we dont have a planet that works.
What is the best piece of advice anyone has ever given you?
Earle: Dont take no for an answer and find out what you want to do and then find a way to make it happen. You can spend
many lifetimes fulfilling the dreams of others. But if you have a dream of your own, dont wait. Just find a way to make
that dream come true. Dont let people say its impossible or its foolish.
What cant you travel without?
Earle: I rarely travel without a camera. I am not a photographer, but taking photographs helps me to remember and to
document. Oh, and a bathing suit.
What can we do to help the ocean?
Earle: The ocean is vulnerable. What we do or dont do will make a difference.
The first thing you need to do is ask yourself who am I? What do I love? What am I good at? If you are good with
words, then use those words. If you are good with numbers, use numbers. If you play a musical instrument, write a
song. If you are a teacher, use that talent. Adults, take a kid to a wild place by the sea. If you are a kid, grab an adult
and take them somewhere and show them the future of the ocean or a lake or a river through your eyes.
