JANE: Hello, Jane Fairbanks speaking. 
FRANK: Oh, good morning. My name's Frank Pritchard. 
FRANK: I've just retired and moved to Southoe. 
FRANK: I'd like to become a volunteer, and I gather you co-ordinate voluntary work in the  village.  JANE: That's right. 
FRANK: What sort of thing could I do? 
JANE: Well, we need help with the village library. We borrow books from the town library, and 
individuals also donate them. So, one thing you could do is get involved in collecting them - if  you've got a car, that is. 
FRANK: Yes, that's no problem. 
JANE: The times are pretty flexible so we can arrange it to suit you. Another thing is the 
records that we keep of the books we're given, and those we borrow and need to return to 
the town library. It would be very useful to have another person to help keep them up to date. 
FRANK: Right. I'm used to working on a computer - presume they're computerised?  JANE: Oh yes. 
FRANK: Is the library purpose-built? 
FRANK: I haven't noticed it when I've walked round the village. 
JANE: No, we simply have the use of a room in the village hall, the West Room. It's on the left  as you go in. 
FRANK: I must go and have a look inside the hall. 
JANE: Yes, it's a nice building. 
FRANK: Do you run a lunch club in the village for elderly people? I know a lot of places do. 
JANE: Yes, we have a very successful club. 
FRANK: I could help with transport, if that's of any use. 
JANE: Ohh definitely. People come to the club from neighbouring villages, and we're always  in need of more drivers. 
FRANK: And does the club have groups that focus on a particular hobby, too? I could get 
involved in one or two, particularly if there are any art groups. 
JANE: Excellent. I'll find out where we need help and get back to you. 
FRANK: Fine. What about help for individual residents. Do you arrange that at all? 
JANE: Yes, we do it as a one-off. In fact, there's Mrs Carroll. She needs a lift to the hospital 
next week, and we're struggling to find someone. 
FRANK: When's her appointment? 
JANE: On Tuesday. It would take the whole morning.  FRANK: I could do that. 
JANE: Oh, that would be great. Thank you. And also, next week, we're arranging to have 
some work done to Mr Selsbury's house before he moves, as he isn't healthy enough to do it 
himself. We've got some people to decorate his kitchen, but if you could do some weeding in 
his garden, that would be wonderful. 
FRANK: OK. I'd enjoy that. And presumably the day and time are flexible. 
JANE: Oh yes. Just say when would suit you best, and we'll let Mr Selsbury know.  FRANK: Good.    Exercise 3.  1  Answer: July 18th  2  Answer: Wednesday  Distractors:  Distractors:

A: Right, so, you need to book some flights, is that right? 
B: Yes, for me and my family. We are going to Scotland for my sister’s wedding. 
A: Oh, lovely! When’s the wedding?  B: It’s on 21st July 
A: That should be wonderful, but I assume you want to fly in earlier? What about the 20th or  even the 19th? 
B: It will have to be on the 18th, I’ve actually got to attend a special dinner on the 19th.  2 
Welcome aboard, everyone. I hope you will enjoy your stay with us and get a lovely glimpse 
of country life. We are going to a wonderful market on Tuesday morning. I’m sure you love 
that with all the local farm produce on sale. Then on the Wednesday, you get to see were all 
in that lovely produce comes from as John Smith, a local farmer, has invited us to see him at 
work. On Thursday, you have a day to relax before we leave on Friday.    Exercise 4.  11  A  13  B  Distractors:

My name's Lou Miller and I'm going to be your tour guide today as we take this fantastic boat 
trip around the Tasmanian coast. Before we set off, I just want to tell you a few things about  our journey. 
Our boats aren't huge as you can see. We already have three staff members on board and on 
top of that, we can transport a further fifteen people - that's you - around the coastline. 
But please note if there are more than nine people on either side of the boat, we'll move 
some of you over, otherwise all eighteen of us will end up in the sea! We've recently  upgraded all our boats. 
They used to be jet black, but our new ones now have these comfortable dark red seats and 
a light-green exterior in order to stand out from others and help promote our company. 
This gives our boats a rather unique appearance, don't you think? We offer you a free 
lunchbox during the trip and we have three types. 
Lunchbox 1 contains ham and tomato sandwiches. 
Lunchbox 2 contains a cheddar cheese roll and Lunchbox 3 is salad-based and also contains  eggs and tuna. 
All three lunchboxes also have a packet of crisps and chocolate bar inside. 
Please let staff know which lunchbox you prefer. 
I'm sure I don't have to ask you not to throw anything into the sea. We don't have any bins to 
put litter in, but Jess, myself or Ray, our other guide, will collect it from you after lunch and 
put it all in a large plastic sack.    Strategy  Exercise 1.  1  WADDELL  4  visa  2  ROBYN PLACE  5  10  3  263 8666      Audio script:

Woman: Home number will be fine.  Man: Ok, it’s 07 263 8666. 
Woman: Great, now can I also have a credit card number? 
Man: Do I have to pay by credit card? 
Woman: Well, we need a credit card number as a guarantee. It is a standard policy for car  rentals. 
Man: Ok, Well. I’ll pay by Visa then the card number is 4550 1392 8309 3221.  Woman: And the expiry date?  Man: Sorry? 
Woman: Your card, When does it expiry?  Man: Oh, next July. 
Woman: Right, now how long did you want the car for? 12 days did you say? 
Man: No, I only need a car for 10 days, from the second to the eleventh of next month.    Exercise 2.  11 B  13  C  12 C  14  B  Audio script: 
Good morning, and welcome to Oniton Hall, one of the largest estates in the area. My name’s 
Nick, and I’m one of the guides. I’ll give you a brief introduction to the estate while you’re 
sitting down, and then we’ll walk round. 
The estate consists of the house, gardens, parkland and farm, and it dates back to the 
fourteenth century. The original house was replaced in the late seventeenth century, and of 
course it has had a large number of owners. Almost all of them have left their mark, 
generally by adding new rooms, like the ballroom and conservatory, or by demolishing 
others. The farm looks much as it’s always done, although the current owner has done a 
great deal of work to the flower beds. 
In the seventeenth century, the estate was owned by a very wealthy man called Sir Edward 
Downes. His intention was to escape from the world of politics, after years as an active 
politician, and to build a new house worthy of his big collection of books, paintings and 
sculptures. He broke off contact with his former political allies, and hosted meetings of 
creative and literary people, like painters and poets. Unusually for his time, he didn’t care 
whether his guests were rich or poor, as long as they had talent. 
Big houses like Oniton had dozens of servants until the 1920s or 30s, and we’ve tried to 
show what their working lives were like. Photographs of course don’t give much of an idea, 
so instead, as you go round the house, you’ll see volunteers dressed up as nineteenth-
century servants, going about their work. They’ll explain what they’re doing, and tell you their 
recipes, or what tools they’re using. We’ve just introduced this feature to replace the audio 
guide we used to have available. 
I see there are a number of children here with you today. Well, we have several activities 
specially for children, like dressing up in the sorts of clothes that children wore in the past, 
and as it’s a fine day, some of you will probably want to play in the adventure playground. 
Our latest addition is child-sized tractors, that you can drive around the grounds.

JAN: Oh hello. My name’s Jan. Are you the right person to talk to about the Buckworth  Conservation Group? 
PETER: Yes, I’m Peter. I’m the secretary. 
JAN: Good. I’ve just moved to this area, and I’m interested in getting involved. I was in a 
similar group where I used to live. Could you tell me something about your activities, please? 
PETER: Of course. Well, we have a mixture of regular activities and special events. One of the 
regular ones is trying to keep the beach free of litter. A few of us spend a couple of hours a 
month on it, and it’s awful how much there is to clear. I wish people would be more 
responsible and take it home with them. 
JAN: I totally agree. I’d be happy to help with that. Is it OK to take dogs? 
PETER: I’m afraid not, as they’re banned from the beach itself. You can take them along the 
cliffs, though. And children are welcome.  JAN: Right. 
PETER: We also manage a nature reserve, and there’s a lot to do there all year round. For 
example, because it’s a popular place to visit, we spend a lot of time looking after the paths 
and making sure they’re in good condition for walking. 
JAN: I could certainly help with that. 
PETER: Good. And we have a programme of creating new habitats there. We’ve just finished 
making and installing nesting boxes for birds to use, and next we’re going to work on 
encouraging insects–they’re important for the biodiversity of the reserve.  JAN: They certainly are. 
PETER: Oh, and we’re also running a project to identify the different species of butterflies 
that visit the reserve. You might be interested in taking part in that. 
JAN: Sure. I was involved in something similar where I used to live, counting all the species  of moths. I’d enjoy that. 
PETER: Another job we’re doing at the reserve is replacing the wall on the southern side, 
between the parking area and our woodshed. It was badly damaged in a storm last month.  JAN: OK. 
PETER: Then as I said, we have a programme of events as well, both at the weekend, and  during the week. 
JAN: Right. I presume you have guided walks? I’d like to get to know the local countryside, as  I’m new to the area. 
PETER: Yes, we do. The next walk is to Ruston Island, a week on Saturday. We’ll be meeting 
in the car park at Dunsmore Beach at low tide – that’s when the sands are dry enough for us 
to walk to the island without getting wet.  JAN: Sounds good. 
PETER: The island’s a great place to explore. It’s quite small, and it’s got a range of habitats. 
It’s also an ideal location for seeing seals just off the coast, or even on the beach. 
JAN: OK. And is there anything we should bring, like a picnic, for instance? 
PETER: Yes, do bring one, as it’s a full-day walk. And of course it’ll be wet walking across and 
back, so make sure your boots are waterproof. 
JAN: I must buy a new pair – there’s a hole in one of my current ones! Well, I’d definitely like  to come on the walk. 
PETER: Great. Then later this month we’re having a one-day woodwork session in Hopton  Wood. 
JAN: I’ve never tried that before. Is it OK for beginners to take part? 
PETER: Definitely. There’ll be a couple of experts leading the session, and we keep the 
number of participants down, so you’ll get as much help as you need. 
JAN: Excellent! I’d love to be able to make chairs. 
PETER: That’s probably too ambitious for one day! You’ll be starting with wooden spoons, 
and of course learning how to use the tools. And anything you make is yours to take home  with you. 
JAN: That sounds like fun. When is it? 
PETER: It’s on the 17th, from 10 a.m. until 3. There’s a charge of £35, including lunch, or £40 
if you want to camp in the wood. 
JAN: I should think I’ll come home the same day. Well, I’d certainly like to join the group.    Part 2.  11 medicine  16  cost of production  12 China, (and) India  17  Second World War  13 price  18  25  14 (early) 20th  19  14 tons  15 Perfect  20  Australia  Audio script:  Presenter: 
Hello and welcome to Cooking Corners. And this week we’re looking at that most versatile 
and aromatic of plants: a fairly recent addition to the list of Australian agricultural produce, 
but nevertheless, a great favourite today – ginger. And in the studio to tell us all about it is  Jennifer Johnson.    Jennifer: 
Ginger is one of my personal favourite spices and I’ve got a number of wonderful recipes to 
share with you later on in the programme. So what is ginger? Well, actually it’s a spicy tasting 
root with an aromatic flavour; it's related to the bamboo family and has a hundred different 
uses in the kitchen. The Chinese have cultivated it for years, particularly to use in medicine, 
though you are probably more familiar with its culinary uses. But first, let's take a brief look 
at its history before we look at how it can be used, because it has a very interesting history. 
Ginger originated in the southern provinces of China and in India, where it had been used in 
medicine and food for over 5,000 years. The early traders who came upon the plant took it to 
many parts of the world such as Nigeria, the West Indies, Central America, East Africa and  even Indonesia. 
Ginger became extremely popular because of its exotic, aromatic properties and was highly 
valued by spice traders in the 17th and 18th centuries because they were able to sell it back 
in Europe for a very good price. Although Australia is now the largest producer of ginger in 
the world, it wasn’t grown in Australia until the early 20th century. 
Apparently, some pieces of raw ginger found their way to an area about 100 kilometres north 
of Brisbane in Queensland earlier this century. The comparatively high rainfall and humidity 
in this area produce conditions which are perfect for growing ginger. So it became well 
established, but in the early days, the relatively high cost of production placed it at a 
disadvantage in the market by comparison with the much cheaper ginger produced by other 
countries with lower production costs. 
Then in 1941, the supply of ginger to Australia started to run out. Remember … this was in 
the middle of the Second World War when everything was in short supply. This provided a 
perfect opportunity for the Queensland growers to expand their production and sales. Five 
local farmers got together and formed a cooperative association in a place called Buderim. 
They started with only 25 pounds between them. (That was in the days when Australian 
currency was pounds, not dollars.) 
So they set up the company with two wooden vats and 14 tons of raw ginger, but they went 
on to become the most successful ginger farmers in the world.   
In fact, nearly all the world’s ginger now comes from the Buderim ginger factory in 
Queensland. 40% of the production is used in Australia, and the remaining 60% is exported 
overseas to places like Europe, North America, South Africa, and even to Asia, where it 
originated in the first place. 
So now let’s move on to look at ways of using ginger in the kitchen…    Part 3.  21 B  26  paper  22 A  27  humans  23 C  28  stress  24 C  29  graph  25 history  30   Evaluate     Paraphrasing.  1 
Get mixed up about what actually  3  A short sleep  happened and what we dreamed  2  Be a coincidence  4 
Results didn't seem to show any  obvious patterns.  Audio script: 
SUSIE: So Luke, for our next psychology assignment we have to do something on sleep and  dreams. 
LUKE: Right. I've just read an article suggesting why we tend to forget most of our dreams 
soon after we wake up. I mean, most of my dreams aren't that interesting anyway, but what 
it said was that if we remembered everything, we might get mixed up about what actual y 
happened and what we dreamed. So it's a sort of protection. I hadn't heard that idea before. 
I'd always assumed that it was just that we didn't have room in our memories for al that stuff. 
SUSIE: Me too. What do you think about the idea that our dreams may predict the future? 
LUKE: It's a belief that you get al over the world. 
SUSIE: Yeah, lots of people have a story of it happening to them, but the explanation I've 
read is that for each dream that comes true, we have thousands that don't, but we don't 
notice those, we don't even remember them. We just remember the ones where something 
in the real world, like a view or an action, happens to trigger a dream memory. 
LUKE: Right. So it's just a coincidence real y. Something else I read about is what they cal 
segmented sleeping. That's a theory that hundreds of years ago, people used to get up in 
the middle of the night and have a chat or something to eat, then go back to bed. So I tried it  myself.  SUSIE: Why? 
LUKE: Wel it's meant to make you more creative. I don't know why. But I gave it up after a 
week. It just didn't fit in with my lifestyle. 
SUSIE: But most pre-school children have a short sleep in the day don't they? There was an 
experiment some students did here last term to see at what age kids should stop having 
naps. But they didn't real y find an answer. They spent a lot of time working out the most 
appropriate methodology, but the results didn't seem to show any obvious patterns. 
LUKE: Right. Anyway, let's think about our assignment. Last time I had problems with the 
final stage, where we had to describe and justify how successful we thought we'd been. I 
struggled a bit with the action plan too. 
SUSIE: I was OK with the planning, but I got marked down for the self-assessment as wel . 
And I had big problems with the statistical stuff, that's where I real y lost marks.  LUKE: Right. 
SUSIE: So shal we plan what we have to do for this assignment?  LUKE: OK. 
SUSIE: First, we have to decide on our research question. So how about 'Is there a 
relationship between hours of sleep and number of dreams?' 
LUKE: OK. Then we need to think about who we'l do the study on. About 12 people? 
SUSIE: Right. And shal we use other psychology students? 
LUKE: Let's use people from a different department. What about history? 
SUSIE: Yes, they might have interesting dreams! Or literature students? 
LUKE: I don't real y know any. 
SUSIE: OK, forget that idea. Then we have to think about our methodology. So we could use 
observation, but that doesn't seem appropriate. 
LUKE: No. It needs to be self-reporting I think. And we could ask them to answer questions  online. 
SUSIE: But in this case, paper might be better as they'l be doing it straight after they wake 
up ... in fact while they're stil half-asleep. 
LUKE: Right. And we'l have to check the ethical guidelines for this sort of research. 
SUSIE: Mm, because our experiment involves humans, so there are special regulations. 
LUKE: Yes, I had a look at those for another assignment I did. There's a whole section on 
risk assessment, and another section on making sure they aren't put under any unnecessary  stress. 
SUSIE: Let's hope they don't have any bad dreams!  LUKE: Yeah. 
SUSIE: Then when we've col ected al our data we have to analyse it and calculate the 
correlation between our two variables, that's time sleeping and number of dreams and then 
present our results visual y in a graph. 
LUKE: Right. And the final thing is to think about our research and evaluate it. So that seems  quite straightforward.  SUSIE: Yeah. So now let's ...    Part 4.  31 B  36  gap  32 A  37  3500  33 B  38  worthwhile  34 C  39  fee  35 middle  40  commission  Audio script: 
Now I'd like to move on to talk about something called geo-tourism. Geo-tourism is very 
basically leveraging the benefits of tourism for local communities. I would just like to give 
you a couple of statistics, which are very illustrative of the current situation with regard to 
young travellers and international tourism. 
Firstly, tourism has an impact on more people worldwide than any other industry. Indeed it 
has an impact on one in every two people, either directly or indirectly. The second statistic is 
that in global tourism there is a 97% economic leakage. This means that if you spend 100 
pounds on going on holiday normally only 3 pounds of that money will actually reach the 
people who are giving you the services and the accommodation etc in the destination. If you 
put these two figures together you can understand why some of the regions of the world 
which have very high levels of tourism still have very high levels of poverty and huge 
developmental challenges. These countries have this massive industry demanding a huge 
number of services but they are not seeing a fair reward for these services. Geo-tourism is 
about changing this. Projects are now being developed with financial organizations such as 
the World Bank. One of these involves developing a technology platform which is bringing 
grassroots travel products such as hotels, locally owned hotels, not global chains, very 
locally owned tour operators, to the international travel market therefore avoiding the  middlemen. 
These middlemen often cut them out of the market completely or just make their business  unsustainable. 
Another way that Geo-tourism can be promoted is through the niche travel market of 
volunteering. These days a significant number of older teenagers want to spend a gap year, 
either between school and university or university and employment. Often these people want 
to spend some or all of their year volunteering but they either don't have the money or don't 
feel inclined to pay the main "volunteering organization businesses" the fee they require, 
which can be as high as thirty-five hundred pounds. What they're looking for is an 
organization who can connect them with people "on the ground" who can suggest 
worthwhile local projects. So, this is a real win-win scenario. The organizers charge a small 
flat fee, which then goes to the local contact. Thus, the local contact gets a very good 
commission just for one customer. The customer is also saving a large amount of money 
and time both of which they can give to the projects they end up working on. There is still 
quite a long way to go before poverty in the most popular of tourist areas is eradicated but a 
focus on this type of Geo-tourism could provide an answer.    HOMEWORK  Exercise 1.  a.  1  creativity  6  motivation  2  therapy  7  isolation  3  fitness  8  calories  4  balance  9  obesity  5  brain  10  habit    Audio script: 
Dancing is something that humans do when they want to have a good time. 
It's a universal response to music, found in all cultures. 
But what's only been discovered recently is that dancing not only makes us feel good, it's 
also extremely good for our health. 
Dancing, like other forms of exercise, releases hormones, such as dopamine, which make us  feel relaxed and happy. 
And it also reduces feelings of stress or anxiety. 
Dancing is also a sociable activity, which is another reason it makes us feel good. 
One study compared people's enjoyment of dancing at home in front of a video with dancing  in a group in a studio. 
The people dancing in a group reported feeling happier, whereas those dancing alone did  not. 
In another experiment, university researchers at York and Sheffield took a group of students 
and sent each of them into a lab where music was played for five minutes. 
Each had to choose from three options: to sit and listen quietly to the music, to cycle on an 
exercise bike while they listened, or to get up and dance. 
All were given cognitive tasks to perform before and after. 
The result showed that those who chose to dance showed much more creativity when doing  problem-solving tasks. 
Doctor Lovatt at the University of Hertfordshire believes dance could be a very useful way to 
help people suffering from mental health problems. 
He thinks dance should be prescribed as therapy to help people overcome issues such as  depression. 
It's well established that dance is a good way of encouraging adolescent girls to take 
exercise but what about older people? 
Studies have shown that there are enormous benefits for people in their sixties and beyond. 
One of the great things about dance is that there are no barriers to participation. 
Anyone can have a go, even those whose standard of fitness is quite low. 
Dance can be especially beneficial for older adults who can't run or do more intense 
workouts, or for those who don't want to. 
One 2015 study found that even a gentle dance workout helps to promote a healthy heart. 
And there's plenty of evidence which suggests that dancing lowers the risk of falls, which 
could result in a broken hip, for example, by helping people to improve their balance. 
There are some less obvious benefits of dance for older people too. 
One thing I hadn't realised before researching this topic was that dance isn't just a physical  challenge. 
It also requires a lot of concentration because you need to remember different steps and  routines. 
For older people, this kind of activity is especially important because it forces their brain to 
process things more quickly and to retain more information. 
Current research also shows that dance promotes a general sense of well-being in older 
participants, which can last up to a week after a class. 
Participants report feeling less tired and having greater motivation to be more active and do 
daily activities such as gardening or walking to the shops or a park. 
Ballroom or country dancing, both popular with older people, have to be done in groups. 
They require collaboration and often involve touching a dance partner, all of which 
encourages interaction on the dance floor. 
This helps to develop new relationships and can reduce older people's sense of isolation, 
which is a huge problem in many countries. 
I also looked at the benefits of Zumba. 
Fifteen million people in 180 countries now regularly take a Zumba class, an aerobic workout 
based on Latin American dance moves. 
John Porcari, a professor of exercise and sport science at the University of Wisconsin, 
analysed a group of women who were Zumba regulars and found that a class lasting 40 
minutes burns about 370 calories. 
This is similar to moderately intense exercises like step aerobics or kickboxing. 
A study in the American Journal of Health Behavior showed that when women with obesity 
did Zumba three times a week for 16 weeks, they lost an average of 1.2 kilos and lowered 
their percentage of body fat by 1%. More importantly, the women enjoyed the class so much 
that they made it a habit and continued to attend classes at least once a week - very unusual
