Key Everybody out there does want to meet a
significant other and, as with just about
everything else nowadays, you can use the
Internet to find a date and maybe even a life
partner. What is surprising is that more and
more young people are using online dating
websites. Because the Internet knows no
borders, it is even possible to get a date with
someone in another country. In fact, this is an
incredibly new niche market for these dating
sites. And they are a really great way to meet
people you may otherwise never come across.
Does = use of emphatic auxiliary; Because the
Internet knows no borders = placing a
subordinate clause before the main clause;
incredibly/really = strong adverbs

RECORDING SCRIPT
Extract one
M: Id had pep talks about making new friends when I
went to live in another city to go to university both
from my parents and from our teachers at school;
about sociability in general being an important skill
that we need in our daily lives. Each one of us must
learn to nurture it. And if youre outgoing, gregarious
and extroverted its easy.
F: Yes, but other people find it harder to go up to a
complete stranger and to get a conversation going.
M: The tip that worked for me though was not to
frown and look so serious, and to lean forward a bit
to show that youre interested in what the other
person is saying. And it is interesting; Ive talked to
people whove told me about climbing mountains,
working for voluntary organizations and even
trekking with camels in one case!
F: So, do you think youve changed?
M: Funnily enough, when I go back home to see my
parents for the weekend now Ive got much more I
want to say to them and I spend less time on the
Internet in my bedroom. Ive even been giving my
little brother some hints about socialising! My mum
says I seem to be much more self-assured but Im
just the same person with the same personality; its
just that Im growing up!
Extract two
F: Our early research shows those who wield some
power in our society today tend to be omnivorous,
enjoying popular culture such as football as well as
snob culture such as opera. Wealth and social
connections are no longer the key indicators of social
power in modern-day Britain. Instead, it is those
with the richest cultural capital or the widest range
of hobbies who wield the most power and influence
in society. Hobbies are a key means of exercising
power and influence in todays society as long as you
pursue those interests actively.
M: Yes, over the last forty years or so in Britain the
cultural divide between elite high culture and popular
culture, has diminished. Some aspects of popular
culture have been gentrified, for instance, even some
members of the Royal Family have expressed a liking
for football and popular music. On the other hand,
hobbies such as golf and sailing, once the preserve of
the rich, can be enjoyed by almost anyone. This is
enormously interesting because it means that social
mobility becomes much more of a reality for many
people. You are no longer automatically excluded by
certain social groups if you watch soap operas on TV
because they watch it too!

RECORDING SCRIPT
Hi, Im going to tell you about my safari trip to Africa.
I went with a group for eight days and we visited
two countries with very different approaches to the
holiday experience.
The first morning we went off to Timbavati. Thats a
game reserve; its about 10,000-hectares and shares
an unfenced border with Kruger National Park and
right in the middle of this is Umlani Bushcamp. Its
described as rustic but actually, its as luxurious as
you have any right to expect, given where it is.
Electricity is limited, but the water was always piping
hot and plentiful in our thatch-roofed cottages or
rondovals to give them the local name.
In the mornings and evenings, open top safari trucks
took us out into the wilderness.
One day we came across a group of buffalo and our
driver gave them a wide berth, explaining that they
can be very aggressive. I also learnt that a lone male
buffalo, is called a dagga boy, and that it comes from
the Afrikaans word for mud. And the other thing I
learnt is that he will not hesitate to charge a truck
just to get rid of some ill-tempered energy!

KEY Suggested answer:
A travel website that you often use is inviting
readers to write an article for its features section.
In order to stimulate responses, it has put these
extracts from travel blogs on its home page.
Im fed up with the competitive attitude that
permeates travel and holidays. People seem to
go on holiday just to brag about it to their
friends when they get back home. When you
really ask them about their holiday, they hardly
even seem to know where theyve been. When a
friend told me hed been to the Maldives and I
asked him which ocean the islands were in, he
didnt even know!
My last holiday turned out to be a life-changing
event. I went to Kenya and when I booked it, I
thought Id just be lying on the beach for a
while and then Id do the safari thing. But as I
was walking down the road one day, I went
past a school (Im a trainee teacher) and this
kid ran out, took my hand and took me into the
school. The teachers and kids were so warm
and welcoming I skipped the beach holiday
and spent my time being an assistant in their
classes. Now Im back home, Ive set up a
school link between the London school Ive
been working in and the school in Kenya.
I think Ive discovered what education means.

This shirt doesnt feel quite right when I wear it. The
sleeves are the right length and the necks OK ... and
the cottons really soft and feels great ... but it seems
a bit too tight across my chest. Its still wearable
though and bang on trend and lots of my mates have
got similar ones. Id gone shopping with my
classmates Jack and Ben and I should have known
that sooner or later, theyd talk me into getting
something. Theyve both got great dress sense and
manage to find really original stuff so I thought they

I play the guitar in a band and tend to buy quite a lot
of clothes to wear at gigs: just jeans and tops mostly.
Theres this particular guitarist who I think is just
great I really like his music and play a few cover
versions of his songs. Anyhow, I saw him in an ad for
some jeans... and he looked so cool in them. They
were a bit expensive but I couldnt find them in a
sale anywhere. They feel really good but I feel a bit
bad about paying so much for them. Perhaps I should
have waited or perhaps gone for something that
looks similar but is not quite the same quality.

I think that many celebrities expect special treatment
from the media but, as far as I can see it, they are fair
game. Why shouldnt they be photographed when theyre
not looking their best or when they havent behaved as
they should have done? In my opinion, theyre in a really
privileged position many have actually spent a large
part of their lives trying to be famous even if its only for
the proverbial 15 minutes. They should be setting an
example for the rest of us and take some responsibility
for their behaviour instead of all too often acting like
spoilt brats. I really feel strongly that they should stop
complaining about being papped and constantly followed
by photographers and actually use their fame to do
something for the benefit of society.

Well, in my opinion the criticism of children that they
read less nowadays is completely unfounded. In the
past people mainly read books and newspapers whereas
now , as long as people have access to the Internet, they
have the freedom to read a whole range of texts, blogs
and so on. Human beings are naturally curious, thats
why we want to read about so many different topics. I
know it has been reported that the information in some

2 Good investigative journalism not only exposes
corruption, for example, but also provides the public
with accurate information about current issues.
3 Moreover, those who have sought out publicity to

when journalists write articles which show them

Let me start by welcoming you all to our university
and to the Food technology Faculty in particular. Our
degree course provides you with the knowledge and
skills to take part in every aspect of food production.
And, in fact, we now go beyond production and
distribution and for the first time this year were also
including a module on packaging to give you a
comprehensive understanding of the industry.
A wide range of lectures and hands-on sessions
ensures that you learn all the steps that make up
food manufacturing. And I do mean all the steps.
Many students are surprised to find that we include
case studies which look at harvesting. After all, when
and how you pick a crop can have a huge influence on
its quality. We go from this right through to examining
different methods of conserving food
During the course you will first find out how popular
foods are made and youll get involved in the
development of new foods. In all matters relating to
food, the emphasis is on food safety. All foods have
to comply with regulations laid down by the
government. This is an area that both the government
and the industry are tightening up on.
Many of you, I know, have very good school-leaving
exam results in mathematics and or physics but we
introduce biochemistry as a subject early on in the
course because its fundamental to an understanding
of our work. Dont worry if you havent studied this
before as the course takes this into account.

Interviewer: Today Im talking to John McCartney,
the architect who designed a new secondary school
in London. John, as I approached the school, I couldnt
help but notice the strikingly vibrant colours of the
external walls.
JMcC: Good, I wanted people to sit up and take notice
of this new building in their area but more than that
I wanted the boldness of the colours to say to people
Here we are and we know what were doing. I didnt
want the school to look as though it was apologising
for its existence and trying to hide behind the style,
size and shape of other buildings around here. It has
been said that the walls are a work of modern art in
themselves. And Im flattered that people think that.
Interviewer: Now, when you enter the school, you go
into a large space that youve called the market
place. What was the thinking behind this?
JMcC: Yes, this ground floor area physically connects
to all the key communal spaces at this level and
visually connects to the whole school via the full
height atrium. You do actually see this in quite a lot of
large buildings such as banks these days. But the
reasoning for its inclusion here is that it embodies the
pedagogical ideas that teaching and learning revolve
around the pupil just as activity in a town revolves
around the market place.

KEY Since at least the time of the ancient Greeks,
there 1 has been considerable debate about
exactly how King Khufus Great Pyramid 2 was
constructed at Giza. Recently, Kate Spence, an
Egyptologist at the University of Cambridge,
3 has put forward a convincing theory that the
architects of the Great Pyramid 4 focused on
two stars (Ursae Minoris and Ursae Majoris),
rotating around the position of the north pole,
which 5 were/would have been in perfect
alignment in around 2467 BC, the precise date
when Khufus pyramid 6 is thought to have
been built. This hypothesis 7 is supported by
the fact that inaccuracies in the orientations of
earlier and later pyramids 8 can be linked with
the degree to which the alignment of the two
aforementioned stars 9 deviated from true north.

Speaker 1: With some college friends, wed just
booked a summer language course in Spain. My
mum told me about a company that sells really good
cotton T-shirts, so I thought Id get a couple for my
holiday. The companys website was amazing. It
went into where they source the cotton, how the
workers are treated... It was twenty minutes before
I realised Id better put some T-shirts in my basket
and clicked on buy. Id never really thought too

Speaker 4: Ive just done a six-week stint working
for a law firm as part of my law degree. Its been
hard keeping up with my studies and working long
hours! So Im really looking forward to a long
summer holiday with my parents. They love visiting
different countries. Id be happy to spend the
summer next to the lake, near where we live. Even
when I was quite little, I forget where we went, but I
thought, whats the point of travelling such a long
way away when its more or less the same as at
home same burgers, same music? Globalisations
got a lot to answer for. Actually, next year, at uni Im
doing a module on labour law and Im keen to know
if globalisations making things better or worse for
people employed in manufacturing, for example, in
some countries.

M: With me in the studio today is Margaret Jameson
and Im going to be talking to her about her job as a
forensic scientist. Margaret, tell us about your
decision to become a forensic scientist.
F: Well, I only made the decision when I was in my
thirties. I followed a rather unusual route into the
profession in that Id studied and worked in genetics
first. My parents, who are both company directors,
had got used to the idea that science was my passion.
Even as a young girl I loved it. I was often one of the
small handful of girls in the science club at school or
entering science competitions. I know thats changed
now but... .
M: So what is it that you find so rewarding about the
job?
F: Well, of course it isnt all just down to me. The
department consists of a number of specialists
some have a medical background, others are
chemists. For me the satisfaction comes when you
have a situation, you look at all the evidence and you
unravel the mystery. Its a fast-moving profession in
the sense that new methods are being introduced all
the time so youve got to keep abreast of those. Ive
only been required to attend court once or twice and
thats quite a nerve-wracking experience.
M: Yes, weve all seen that on TV. Would you say that
TV crime dramas portray forensic scientists
reasonably accurately?

F: They certainly portray a flattering image of the
profession and I think inflate our worth but I cant
see them having an impact on the number of
graduates joining us. I just hope they wont be
disappointed because the reality is that we spend a
lot of time doing repetitive tasks in the lab. Of course
I understand that wouldnt make for riveting TV!
Some of the more recent TV forensic scientists have
made a good attempt at describing some quite
complex science to the average viewer though.

Speaker 1: I think its very sad when a young person
gets on the wrong side of the law because it can
shape their whole future. Recently a lad had been
caught shoplifting and the shop had called in the
police so the whole thing went to court. We got him
off with just a few hours of community service but I
do wonder if it wouldve been better if the shop had
just given him a warning. Hes from a very good
family but goes to a school with a very mixed intake.
As Im quite new to the profession, I guess Id
underestimated just how strong the influence is
from other youngsters. I hope I dont see him again
in a professional capacity.
Speaker 2: I was walking home one evening last week
when I saw a fight in the street between a man and a
woman. Instinctively, I rushed up to them to try to
pull them apart, and the man hit me in the stomach.
It completely winded me and I fell to the floor and
they ran off. A woman came out of a nearby house,
helped me up and took me into her house. I was fine
but I was grateful for her generosity; I mean it wasnt
as if she knew me it just shows. Actually, we had a
good laugh about it when I told her who I was and
that I was officially off duty and had just finished my
shift at the station.
Speaker 3: A very strange and unnerving thing
happened when I started my job. After just a couple
of weeks, two men came into my room and asked me
if Id mind answering some questions about some of
the companys financial transactions. It soon became
obvious that they were suggesting I was involved in

Theres a widespread view, particularly among
environmentalists and liberals, that big businesses
are environmentally destructive, greedy, unethical
and driven by short-term profits. I know because I
used to share that view. However, my recent research
shows that the vast majority of companies, for
example, retailers, logging companies are taking
their environmental responsibilities seriously. One
industry still causing major concern, as far as I can
see, is mining, where toxic waste can get into the soil.
Supermarkets have been reducing their electricity
consumption in all sorts of ways; by allowing the
temperature in stores to reach 24 degrees rather than
22 in summer is just one example. They could also look
at the way their trucks work. The air-conditioning
runs off fuel, petrol or diesel, but by incorporating a
small separate generator, fuel consumption could be
greatly reduced.
Of course, most of these green ideas also save
companies money; I know they can be driven by
commercial rather than environmental interests.
Nevertheless, take for example, the great idea most
supermarkets have taken on board to cut packaging
by offering goods such as washing liquid or powder
only in concentrate form. And clearly, thats not the
only change to products by any means. Just a month
or so ago, I went to a huge hypermarket, which is

M: When I first took up the Ironman triathlon,
friends and colleagues wondered why anyone would
submit to such agony a long swim, a 189 km bike
ride, and a marathon run. Well, its all about what
the Ironman event gives me back. There are only a
handful of people able to accomplish it, and Im one
of them, so for me it defines who I really am
although even the winners rarely become wellknown. Once youve committed yourself to doing it,
though, theres no going back. Maintaining the right
level of fitness is really tough, and you can never let
up, as its easy to regress both physically and
mentally.
F: Most people assume that competing in slalom
skiing races is pretty dangerous, but I dont go along
with that. I know very few people whove been
injured, and in any case, before each race we all have
to spend ages checking our equipment to ensure
were doing it all as safely as possible. Its become a
real drag, to be honest, but I do recognise the need
for it if only to reassure my loved ones! On the
plus side, though, if youve spent time rushing
around in your working week as Ive invariably done,
what better way to unwind? The contrast with being
stuck at a desk couldnt be starker, really.
M: Ive been skateboarding for years, and when
competitions became internationally well-known,
that really boosted my interest. Theyre very intense
occasions with a fantastic atmosphere its a
community brought together purely by their passion
for the sport and being part of that gives me as
much of a buzz as actually skating. Theres always a
downside to everything, though, and for me its the
thought that neither I nor anyone else can ever

Equality
M: Oh, boys are generally the ones to get the top
marks in degrees. New research suggests that
women tend to be very compliant, which helps in the
workplace but disadvantages them at university.
Men may have the edge in putting forward
controversial arguments in exams because theyre
more prepared to take risks. And theres a lot of
sacrifice required to get the highest marks, when a
lower mark may still get you the job you want. Also
perhaps women are just not as concerned by the
prestige that top marks might attract.
F: So how about when they get to the workplace?
M: Well, in the workplace, equality between women
and men involves many other issues apart from
exam success. The goal of similar pay for similar
work still hasnt been reached. But then women are
still tending not to compete for positions of
responsibility as theyre the ones mainly in charge
of childcare. So we need a sea change in working
practices more flexible working and so on that
would get more women those top jobs. Weve been
saying this for years, and things have improved, but
were not there yet. Anyway, weve got all these
talented young men and women coming out of
schools and universities so we should be giving all of
them many more chances to apply what theyve
learnt. Having said that, though, equal opportunities
means equal competition for jobs and equal worry
when things go wrong, so we have to be prepared to
deal with that, too.

When he was first elected, our local politician
came across as quite pushy, and threatened to
make working people spend more money by
putting up taxes. This seemed a very simplistic
objective at the time, but he soon proved to be
absolutely ruthless when trying to get his own
way, with rather weird ideas about how to
achieve his aims. In the end, it turned out that
in addition to threatening working people, he
was responsible for increasing taxes for those
who were rolling in it, so they werent very
grateful for his interference.

RECORDING SCRIPT
Hi everyone. My names Jake Matthews and Im a film
critic many peoples dream job, but not my original
ambition! In fact, I began training to be a lawyer, but
realised it wasnt for me and became a teacher instead.
I worked freelance as a critic to supplement my income
as a student. Then the work increased, and I now write
full-time. I work for a number of magazines, partly as
an editor, but Ive also recently been lucky enough to
get a weekly position as a columnist, so thats increased
job security a bit. I still end up wondering, though,
where other workll come from.
As youll imagine, my job involves watching awesome
numbers of films, maybe 250 a year and then
creating coherent pieces from my comments. Of
course, reviews always contain opinions but I feel
they need facts too film buffs will always be looking
for those and then checking them! Ill throw in
some gossip too if the style of the publication
demands it.
Another aspect of the job is to research the film
industry. Ive read extensively about film-making,
particularly what less well-known people do like
storyboard artists, say, who create visual images to
help directors. Other roles, though, such as location
managers or sound mixers were already familiar to
me.
I do get a lot out of writing reviews for publication,
but Ive always secretly envied TV film critics, as
they can bring an extra dimension to their reviews
just through tone or expression the beauty of a
film, say. For me, the best ones brilliantly convey a
films drama. I reckon the nearest I got to that was
on local radio, when I did feel I got over the suspense
of a thriller Id just seen. Lots of people went to see
it after my review, apparently!
So which type of film would I watch from choice?
Well, a while back Id probably have gone for silent
films and I guess everyone, including me, can get
into great adventure movies. But Ive been watching
lots of independent films recently, as theyve been a
real growth area so my preference would probably
be for those.

M: And did you look at the use of abbreviations in
texting for your research?
F: Yes, and when texting first became popular you
could find lists and lists of handy abbreviations such
as the letters L O L for laughing out loud, and so on.
Many incorporated numbers too, for example, the
letters C and U followed by the number eight then
the letter r, neatly reads see you later. But as times
gone by I now see more and more organisations
sending out information messages, for example, to
tell you that your train is delayed. And because these
messages contain important information, the
amount of standard orthography increases. So
proportionally, were seeing fewer abbreviations or
things that look like scientific equations.
M: I remember reading that a child had written a
school essay in textese and that the teacher couldnt
read it.
F: I think this is an urban myth. I heard about it, too
and warned my son and daughter not to use textese
in their homework. They just looked at me as if I was
stupid and said why would we want to do that and
get low grades? Like all bright minds, they can
switch codes really fast. Parents shouldnt worry
about their children writing messages that look like
secret code. Its not that the children cant write in
formal register, its that its cool to write texts in
textese.
M: So all in all, youre a fan of texting?
F: Absolutely. Ive just got a new all-singing, alldancing mobile phone. It hardly weighs anything and
fits into the smallest pocket. Its become a habit for
me to have it with me all the time and I instinctively
reach for it every so often to read or send a message.
I remember my first mobile phone though, it was a
nightmare! The letters were on the phone number
keys. I couldnt figure out why the letters werent
arranged by frequency. For example the letter s is
very common in English but with that phone I had to
press four times to get it. I mentioned this to my kids
and they laughed. They are used to phones with
keypads on the screen and they dont even need to
look at the keypad while theyre texting.
M: So texting is accepted by society in general now,
would you say?
F: Yes, its here to stay until the next development in
telecommunications comes along. A measure of how
accepted it is was obvious in a recent court case. A
businessman claimed that some texts had been sent
by a colleague on certain days, but when analysed, the
texts used a completely different style from those
normally sent by the colleague. The lawyer proved
that the accused had falsified evidence!

a Thanks to email, communication with many
people around the world has become
available at the press of a key.
Some people say that children have been
learning bad linguistic habits by overusing
textese.
In the 1970s we say a communications
revolution took place. Before that most
written communication had taken the form of
a letter often written by hand and posted to
the recipient.
If communications technology hadnt
developed so rapidly, businesses would
have struggled to operate successfully at a
global level.
b If you go to the country where the language
is spoken, youll learn quickly and easily.
If I could choose a country to learn English
in, Id choose Australia because...
I think you should look for a part-time job in
England.
In order to make good progress you really
ought to study for at least three hours a day.
You could always find an English-speaking
e-friend.
Its worth buying a really good online
dictionary.
c The problem with many electronic translators
at present is that they are not sophisticated
enough.
However, they are becoming more complex
and therefore more useful.
I can foresee a time when people wont need
to learn foreign languages because we will
have such good oral/aural electronic
translators.
Im not going to buy a translating package
until they have improved.
Within ten years, we will be using electronic
translators at least for the most common
languages.
It may be possible to speak in your language
and for the other person to hear it in his
language almost immediately through a tiny
earpiece.
I think a lot of people might miss the
challenge and enjoyment of learning a new
language.

You must answer this question. Write your
answer in 180-220 words in an appropriate style.
A website that you regularly read has been
running a series of articles about languages, in
particular the dominance of English, Mandarin
and Spanish and the death of less-widely
spoken languages.
Read the extracts from previous articles posted
on the website. Then, using the information
appropriately, write an article for the website
saying whether you agree or disagree with the
opinions previously expressed. You should also
make predictions about the consequences of
languages dying out.
The usefulness and practicality of a single
global language, spoken by everyone as their
mother tongue, would surely outweigh any loss
of cultural heritage.
The proliferation in Scotland of Scots Gaelic
bilingual signs in areas without Gaelic speakers is
eccentric to say the least, not to mention costly.
Only about 1% of the population of Scotland
speaks Gaelic. Let languages die their natural
deaths there are plenty left.
What we lose when a language dies is an
enormous cultural heritage. Estimates vary
but we can safely say that approximately 15
languages die out each year. Each language
has its own way of expressing the peoples
relationship with nature, the framework of their
families and their sense of humour.

F: When I think about the future, Im very optimistic
because I think technology will help us solve many of
the problems that we have nowadays, for example,
Im sure peoples health will improve. However, the
thing that really thrills me is the thought of being able
to get from London to New York in just a couple of
hours. Itd make working overseas a lot more
attractive and practical for many people. My mum
said I should settle down in my home town, get
hitched to the boy next door, but I think Id rather
find a job and flat in a larger city than this.
M: Im still figuring out exactly what I want to do
with my future and it doesnt help that I get
conflicting advice about things. I have a rather
conservative uncle who recently recommended that
I should start putting aside a certain amount each
month to build up a nest egg as he called it. He
doesnt seem to realise I havent even got a job yet.
And Im going to go on and do a Masters next year.
Im into economics and a lot of the reading Ive been
doing is looking at ways of ensuring a more even
distribution of wealth across the world so that living
on one dollar a day will be a thing of the past and
thats what motivates me about the future.
F: Theres been a lot of excitement recently about a
new telescope that people are saying will enable us to
find the very first galaxies. Itll be zoomed out to 1.5
million miles from earth and take up its operating
position. Great! But personally, Im much more
fascinated by how we can lower the contamination of
this planet! My boyfriend has told me about great job
opportunities in Australia and thinks it might be a
good idea if we moved there. That would be really
cool and I think my English is good enough. Ive got
the Cambridge Advanced certificate.
M: Ive been thinking about my future a lot lately. I
finish my Chemistry degree next year and I have to
decide if I want to go on and do a Masters, whether to
take a gap year or whether to get a job. My tutors been
really helpful and has encouraged me to network,
especially while Ive been on work placements or
internships. She says that thats often the best way of
finding a suitable job. During my course Ive become
really interested in the development of new drugs and
the thought that some common ailments might be
cured within the foreseeable future is just amazing.
Some people are focusing on extending our lives with
transplants and so on, but I think we have to focus
more on quality of life.
F: I live in quite a small town and to be honest, its a
bit boring. I work in front of a computer all day every
day doing research! I was talking to a colleague the

do. We even make excuses. One for of my
friends feels obliged to explain to her colleagues
why she comes to work by car sometimes and
says things like, I had so much to carry today;
I had to come by car.
However, car manufacturers are finding ways of
making cars which cause less pollution. They
are trying to entice us using to use electric cars
and its true that these become are becoming
more of a practical proposition because the
batteries are now much more better that than
the early models. Personally, Id suggest that
people thinking of buying a car to look at hybrid
cars. That Those/These/They/are cars that run
on conventional fuel and electricity. Another
alternative is a hydrogen fuel cell car. However,
before to consider considering this alternative,
check out the research into its its safety in an
accident.
There are more natural alternatives, such like
as using ethanol to fuel a car, or perhaps
youd prefer choosing to choose a solar- or
wind-powered vehicle? Unfortunately, these
havent proved practical to date and therefore
have not being been put to into production for
the general public.
By In conclusion, whatever way you look at it,
the car as we know it today might not be
around for longer long/much longer, which will
be not no bad thing for the environment.

Hi. My names Theo Pulham, and Im going to talk
about independent travel for teenagers. Now weve
all heard about university students travelling abroad
in their vacations or taking a gap-year to see the
world; backpacking or whatever. Exciting enough,
you might think for a twenty-year-old, especially
alone, but increasingly, younger teenagers are
looking for this kind of adventure too.
I first became aware of this when I was a journalist
working on a student newspaper. On our university
campus, there wasnt actually a travel agency, but
the newspaper ran a travel column, so students
would email us for advice about trips abroad. And
clearly school-age kids also read the paper because
lots of the emails were coming from them.
And often the question they were asking was: How
old do you have to be to go off travelling alone?
Basically, the answer is that it depends. Lets take the
example of airlines. Theyve all got different rules.
For some, the cut-off age is sixteen if you want to fly
alone, for others its fourteen, often depending on
your ticket. But talking very generally, kids fifteen or
over seem to be welcome in the majority of cases. On
budget airlines, anyone younger must travel with an
adult.
But if they have a full-price ticket on a posh airline,
then kids as young as eight are accepted as what are
called unaccompanied minors and the crew look
after them as part of the service. Teenagers can
have a slightly watered-down version of this service,
known as solo flyer. Anyone in their teens can
request this if they want. Even so, some airlines
insist that parents bring teenagers, not just to the
airport, but to the check-in desk, where there are
forms to sign. So, only once theyre in the departure
lounge are the teenagers really on their own.
And thats just the airlines. Different countries have
different laws too. In some countries, theres lots of
things you cant do if youre under 18. This becomes
important if you have a problem. As youd expect,
some teenagers become the victims of crime, others
are affected by illness, and an incredible number
lose their passports. Basically in these situations,
parents have to go over and sort things out.
One way of avoiding such problems is to join an
organised tour. There are various companies, like
TeenTravel and Kidsglobe who do this, though the

Interviewer: My guest today is the actress Lisa
Pintland, known to millions of TV viewers as Wendy
in the popular period drama series Bradwell Park.
Well talk about that later, Lisa, but first of all, tell
us, did you always want to be an actress?
Lisa: Well, I dont know about always, but the idea
certainly got planted in my brain at a fairly young
age. I mean I must have some natural talent I
suppose, but that didnt actually manifest itself
before my teenage years. I remember being acutely
embarrassed in drama sessions at primary school
for example much too shy to throw myself into it.
No, it was more going with the flow socially. One
year, in the school holidays, I started hanging out
with a group of girls whod done a bit of drama, and
so as not be left out, I got involved too much to my
parents amazement I should add.
Interviewer: And you ended up at drama school?
Lisa: Yes, though that wasnt an easy choice. My
parents thought a straight university degree in English
and drama would be better, so that Id have other
avenues to follow up if the acting bug didnt bear fruit
you know, other skills I could develop. But I really
wanted to have a go at the real thing. I mean, I was
aware how competitive it was, and knew that,

RECORDING SCRIPT
Hi there. My names Tom Headley and Ive come
along to tell you about my experience of building my
own house.
Firstly, I should explain that Im not an architect and
neither did I study civil engineering or anything like
that at university. Basically, building your house
requires you to dabble in lots of things. My degree in
accountancy certainly came in handy, but there
were times when I felt I needed to be an expert in all
subjects: everything from geology to the law would
have been useful at times. But of course you cant
know about all those things. You always need to
take advice from the experts.
So why did I decide to do it? I knew that people did
build their own houses, and I was aware that there
were specialist magazines and websites out there.
But it was a television series that first got me
interested. Following the couple going through the
trials and tribulations of building a house, as it
unfolded week by week, was a bit like watching a
soap opera and it caught my imagination.
The first thing I had to do was select a site, I needed
a plot of land that was within my price range, but
getting it cheap wasnt the main criteria. Lots of
people hope for a great view from their window and
so build on a hill, but I knew that this could cause
problems, so I was looking for a piece of land that
was flat! The one I found does have a view actually,
but its not on a slope, so it was ideal.
I have a full-time job, so I needed help to actually
organise the work itself. Id be employing an architect,
a builder and would have all sorts of specialists
coming and going. I appointed whats known as a
project manager to co-ordinate all that. I paid him
well, but it was money well spent, because it meant if
ever there were problems on site, it was up to him to
sort it out.
He also helped me to deal with the bureaucracy.
There are lots of things you need permission for
from the local council when youre building a house,
and people like building inspectors come to see what

Speaker 1: I grew up in an area with few job
opportunities, and was resigned to moving away to
start my career. So when I read in a newspaper report
that a big multinational was opening a plant locally, I
jumped at the chance to apply. I mean, the companys
reckoned to be one of the best to work for, so I just
went for it. I was pretty thrilled to get an interview
actually, and staggered to discover there were only
six of us in the running for two jobs. As you might
expect, they asked us some fairly searching questions
and set us some problem-solving tasks to do but
nothing I couldnt cope with. When they offered me
the job, I was over the moon.
Speaker 2: I was stuck in a rut in my previous
company, so was looking for one with a more defined
career structure and thats what Dtec gave me. I
mean, the companys not very well known yet, but its
clearly going places. The interview, held in the usual
posh downtown hotel, was much as Id expected. Id
mugged up all about the company from its website,
so had no problems answering the rather predictable
questions. It was a pretty laid-back affair actually
and I was the only person there wearing a suit, which
came as a bit of a shock, but it didnt matter
apparently. In fact, its that laid-back atmosphere
that Ive come to love since coming to work here.
Speaker 3: To be honest, Id never have applied if I
hadnt already known somebody in their recruitment
department, and on the day of the interview, I pretty
well knew which questions to expect and that Id have
to do a proof-reading task. I was caught a bit off my
guard though when nothing was said about the salary
or holidays or anything I mean, was I meant to ask,
or what? Anyway, they gave me a handout at the end
with all that explained and thats when it sunk in that
Id actually got the job. The benefits are brilliant
actually, but Im off to the companys Rome office to
do my training so Im thrilled about that.

F: Its really interesting reading up about all these
companies ecological policies. I mean, all the big
ones do it, produce a statement outlining what they
do to help the environment and why.
M: If you ask me, its all a big cover up. What theyre
really saying is: We know this is something weve
got to do, so here it is.
F: I know what you mean, but I dont think theyre all
as cynical as all that. Maybe thats how it started
years ago, but these days they have to deliver on
those policies because it gets monitored.
M: Im not denying that. Things have changed and
theyre now much more careful about what they say,
and I guess that does translate into actual policies on
the ground. What Im saying is that their reason for
doing it hasnt changed you have to interpret their
behaviour in terms of what they hope to get out of it.
Look at global warming, for instance. If all the big
companies really wanted to change their policies,
then it could be reversed but they dont because
its not in their interest to. And theres no sign of that
changing, despite all the campaigning that goes on.
F: Well, thats more governments than companies if
you ask me.
M: Maybe.

Hi there. Im Ellie and Ive come to tell you all about
my sport which is roller derby. Now, roller derby is a
form of roller skating which involves two teams
competing for points as they skate round a narrow
track. Roller derby used to be a professional sport,
and was big in the 1950s with mixed teams of men
and women, although its popularity actually dates
back to the 1930s. In the 1970s and 80s, however, it
went out of fashion and re-emerged as a womenonly amateur sport from the 1990s onwards. You
now find teams all over Europe as well as in the USA.
Now, theres various leagues in operation, and they
all have slightly different rules, but the number of
players doesnt vary theres always two teams
with five skaters in each. Both teams skate round the
track in an anti-clockwise direction at the same time.
To score points, players called jammers break ahead
of the pack and try to do laps of the track ahead of
the rival teams players. Meanwhile, players known
as blockers have the job of trying to stop them.

Speaker 1: Its a lovely sculpture, dating from the
1930s, of a lady holding a lamp art deco I think its
called. I never even knew I liked that period and I
havent got anything else like it, but I keep it in a
prominent position in my sitting room, and get a
real thrill when people admire it. I dont think its
very valuable in money terms, but it means the
world to me because my favourite great-aunt left it
to me in her will. I think she knew the artist actually,
and my brother reckons it was a gift from him on
her twenty-first birthday but I think that may just
be one of those family stories.
Speaker 2: Its a beautiful painting and the artist is
quite well-known apparently, but I didnt know that
when I bought it. People assume it was an inheritance
or something, but actually I spotted it in a little antique
shop in Prague when I was over there on a winter break
to celebrate my wifes birthday. It was a bit of a hassle
getting it home undamaged I can tell you, but worth it.
The thing is its such a striking image, so detailed, that
I could just spend all day looking at it and still find new
things in it. I had it valued, and found Id paid the going
rate for it, which was good. Its not in perfect condition,
but that doesnt worry me.
Speaker 3: How did I come to own the drawing? Well,
a few years ago when I was on holiday in Italy, I saw
a painting by this artist in a gallery. It really made an
impression on me, so I sent her an email and asked if
shed do my portrait. She lives in London and invited
me to her studio. She was very kind and did this
drawing as a sketch just so I could see what the
finished painting might look like. In the end, I didnt
go ahead with the commission for various reasons,
but she let me hang onto the sketch, didnt want
anything for it. I dont know if its worth anything,
but Im holding on to it just in case.
Speaker 4: The funny thing about the lamp is that
since I came across it in the attic, Ive seen lots of
them for sale in shops and online catalogues, so I
know its by a well-known maker called Moorcroft.
It mustve belonged to someone who lived here in

Interviewer: My guest today is young design student
Debra McAllen, who last year walked off with the
prestigious City of the Future prize. First of all Debra,
what is the competition exactly and what made you
go in for it?
Debra: Well, the idea of the competition is that you
make a design proposal for an aspect of city life that
looks forward to the city of the future. Youre not
designing a new city, but youre putting forward a
design solution that addresses a problem that cities
of the future will face. We heard about it on the
course I was doing at university. The tutors werent
that encouraging because its a lot of work and I was
already preparing for my exams, but the idea caught
my imagination somehow and I wanted to go for it for
my own satisfaction. Lots of my friends talked about
putting their names down, but in the end I was the
only one who did. Even my parents tried to discourage
me, but that only made me more determined!

Make sure your students are exposed to a range of authentic written texts: newspapers,
magazines, journals, books (fiction and non-fiction), promotional and informational
materials. It is crucial at C1 level that learners broaden their range of both active and passive
vocabulary. Reading a range of texts also develops awareness of style and reinforces
grammatical structures.
Go to http://cambridge-english-advanced.cambridgeesol.org/exam-overview/format-exam/
writing-test to find out what the set books are for the year when your students will take the
exam. This gives them recommended reading and the chance to choose the set-book
question in the Writing paper.
Make a chart where students give book ratings, e.g. five stars for the best books.
Collect magazine articles on students favourite topics, copy them and share them.
If your students have email, encourage them to send each other links to interesting/funny
texts in English.
Develop an awareness of text structure draw students attention to titles, paragraphing,
topic sentences and linkers.
Encourage an inquisitive attitude to vocabulary and make sure students have an effective
way of recording new words and phrases.
Six months to go Ensure that students develop the skills of skimming and scanning give timed reading
tasks.
Ensure that students understand the difference between intensive and extensive reading
give tasks for intensive study of a text and texts that are for reading for pleasure.
Familiarise students with multiple-choice, gapped-text and multiple-matching tasks.
Encourage students to identify the writers purpose and to distinguish different types of
writing e.g. factual, descriptive, argumentative, etc. They also need practice in recognising
main ideas as this will help them anticipate the type of question they may be asked.
Check that students are recording vocabulary in a meaningful way: noting the different
forms of words, putting them into sentences, building up a bank of idiomatic phrases, etc.
Build awareness of sequencing of tenses, use of linking words and reference words in texts.
Develop the ability to deduce the meaning of new words from the context.
One month to go Get students to use the answer sheet for recording answers in pencil.
Make sure that students know the format of the Reading paper and what is being tested in
each part and in each question.
Remind students that in Parts 1, 2 and 3 each correct answer is worth 2 marks and in Part 4,
each correct answer receives 1 mark.
Give students opportunities to do timed Reading papers in exam conditions.
Remind students to read titles and questions carefully and to highlight key words.
Check that students understand the strategies for doing each task on the paper see Exam
Strategies in units 1, 4, 7, 10, 13 and 16.
105
03/04/12 12.23
Make the current set books available for students. This gives them the option to decide if
they want to answer question 5 in Part 2 of the Writing paper. You can get information on
the set books from http://cambridge-english-advanced.cambridgeesol.org/exam-overview/
format-exam/writing-test
Encourage students to take part in authentic writing opportunities e.g. take part in online
discussion forums, enter competitions, etc.
Encourage the use of a wide range of grammatical structures, especially complex structures.
Encourage an adventurous use of vocabulary and an awareness of register and style.
Monitor spelling and punctuation in all written tasks carefully.
Set writing tasks on a regular basis both as class work and homework tasks.
Work on a project e.g. freedom of the press, which results in the production of different
genres of writing and put the students work up on the walls.
Use the Internet as a resource to find good models of e.g. articles, reports, proposals, letters,
essays, reviews, etc., on topics that interest your students and encourage them to contribute
to e.g. blogs.
Six months to go Ensure that students know that Part 1 of the paper is mandatory and that they only need to
03/04/12 12.23
Encourage students to read extensively to broaden their vocabulary range and write
regularly so that they familiarise themselves with language usage.
Ensure your students use monolingual dictionaries and occasionally bilingual dictionaries
for words of a specific nature, for example, the name of a less common bird, and have an
advanced-level grammar reference book.
Make sure they have an efficient system to record new vocabulary, e.g. a card-box system.
As students learn new words, ensure that they note down, e.g. adjectival, noun or verb forms
from the same stem word.
Encourage students to learn chunks of words and collocations.
Draw students attention to the multiple meanings of words in preparation for Part 4.
Correct their grammar systematically focusing on appropriate use of a range of structures.
Make sure that spelling is correct.
Encourage them to paraphrase and to deduce the meanings of new words or phrases from
the context.
Ensure that their handwriting is legible.
Six months to go Familiarise your students with the five parts of the Use of English paper.
Give them plenty of practice in all parts of the paper.
Check that their method of recording vocabulary/new grammatical structures is effective
and make sure students are recording multiple meanings.
Create your own cloze tests (Part 1 and Part 2) e.g. from a text they have already read.
Do word-building exercises regularly to help with Part 3 ensuring that students have to
make at least two changes to the root.
Tell your students to pay attention to the titles of the texts in Parts 1-3 as the title sets the
context and helps students predict content.
Tell students to read through each text both extensively and intensively before they answer
the question.
107
03/04/12 12.23
Six months to go Make sure that students know the format and timing of the Listening paper.
Provide ample opportunities for students to practise multiple-choice, sentence completion
and multiple-matching tasks.
Encourage students to predict what they are going to hear from the title or context sentence
and to predict answers by reading the questions carefully.
Raise awareness of the different purposes for listening e.g. is the question asking students
to listen for gist, detail, function, purpose, attitude, opinion, etc.
Use the recording scripts if possible, to show where answers are located in texts and how
distraction works.
Exploit the recording scripts for intensive study from time to time, looking at structures,
vocabulary, functions for expressing opinions, agreeing/disagreeing, etc.
Make sure students recognise paraphrase, e.g. they may hear a phrase on the recording and
have to equate it with a paraphrase of it on the question paper.
One month to go Make sure that students get used to answering the questions on the question paper and
then transferring their answers onto the answer sheet correctly in the time given. They
should pay particular attention to Part 2, where they must write their answers clearly in
capital letters.
Remind students that spelling is expected to be correct. Both UK and US spellings are
acceptable.
Make sure that students have effective strategies for approaching each different task type.
Remind students that each correct answer gets one mark.
Encourage students to use the time before the recording starts effectively, e.g. highlighting
key words in questions.
Make sure that students learn to stop thinking about one question when the recording has
gone onto the next question.
Warn students about word spotting: hearing a word on the recording and seeing the same
word in the question and jumping to the conclusion that that must be the answer. It could
well be a distractor.
Make sure that students get into the habit of checking that their completed sentence in Part 2
makes sense.
Remind students that they will hear each piece twice.
Remind students that each correct answer in Parts 1-4 receives 1 mark.
Check that students understand the strategies for doing each task on the paper see Exam
Strategies in units 3, 4, 5, 6, 9 and 16.
108
03/04/12 12.23
Six months to go Make sure that you help students with pronunciation. There will probably be certain sounds,
features of intonation, etc. which are the result of L1 interference so make sure that you
tailor pronunciation practice to those areas.
When teaching new language, make sure that students can pronounce words correctly and
that they can use the contracted forms of structures such as, I wouldve chosen that if Id .
Give students lots of opportunities to use a range of linkers appropriately this will help
them both in the Speaking and Writing tests.
Play games such as Just a minute, so that students get used to speaking for one minute in
Part 2.
Encourage students to ask questions, give opinions and comment on topics and tasks
throughout their course: this includes asking for their partners opinions.
Devise a system for marking/rewarding active participation in classroom tasks.
Encourage students to expand their answers/contributions.
Refer students to Appendix 2: Functional Language to enable them to express opinions/agree/
disagree, etc...
One month to go Make sure students know what they have to do in each part of the test and what sort of

Extract one
M: Id had pep talks about making new friends when
I went to live in another city to go to university both
from my parents and from our teachers at school;
about sociability in general being an important skill
that we need in our daily lives. Each one of us must
learn to nurture it. And if youre outgoing, gregarious
and extroverted its easy.
F: Yes, but other people find it harder to go up to a
complete stranger and to get a conversation going.
M: The tip that worked for me though was not to
frown and look so serious, and to lean forward a bit
to show that youre interested in what the other
person is saying. And it is interesting; Ive talked to
people whove told me about climbing mountains,
working for voluntary organizations and even
trekking with camels in one case!
F: So, do you think youve changed?
M: Funnily enough, when I go back home to see my
parents for the weekend now Ive got much more I
want to say to them and I spend less time on the
Internet in my bedroom. Ive even been giving my
little brother some hints about socialising! My mum
says I seem to be much more self-assured but Im
just the same person with the same personality; its
just that Im growing up!
Extract two
F: Our early research shows those who wield some
power in our society today tend to be omnivorous,
enjoying popular culture such as football as well as
snob culture such as opera. Wealth and social
connections are no longer the key indicators of
social power in modern-day Britain. Instead, it is
those with the richest cultural capital or the widest

Extract One
M: Hi, so, how are you finding the new job? Its
great, isnt it?
F: Yes, that meeting we just had to assess the
breakfast news programme was really interesting
mainly because it was nice to see the whole
production crew together in one place for a change.
The director was a bit fierce though; I mean I thought
wed all done a good job on the programme but he
wants it to be even slicker next time. Luckily for us I
think that criticism was aimed more at the sound
engineers since the director talked about cuing in
the music better and using the ear-piece links more.
M: Theres such a lot for us to remember and its all
new for us so its a steep learning curve. Gathering
all the information for the stories seems to come
together miraculously at the last minute! Ive only
done one live interview, do you remember with that
footballer? And even though Id mugged up on his
team, I just didnt have enough time to come up with
good follow-ups to his responses.
F: Ive only done it once too and its so much more
nerve-wracking than reading a prepared script. I
guess well just have to get used to it otherwise well
be out on our ears!
Extract two
F: Have you seen how the media have reported the
findings of the new childrens vaccination programme?
M: Yes, its very misleading.
F: And misinformation like this has dire results. Its
very confusing for the public because the media
articles dont go into all the facts and figures, they
just come up with erroneous sensationalist headlines.
In the end people dont know who to believe their
doctor or the journalist. As a result theres a sort of
wary attitude towards scientists on the part of the
public, and who can blame them when theres so
much contradictory reporting? They dont know who
to believe.
M: Yes, I dont know why the media dont recruit
more graduates with a science background.
F: But isnt it rather that we need more crossover
between the sciences and the arts otherwise well
always have this science versus arts culture?
Further education should provide broader-based
education.
M: That would solve a lot of problems. And in the
meantime, the government should make sure they
provide good factual information and make it easily
available to the general public through TV infocommercials or leaflets that can be picked up
anywhere.
Extract three
F: Ive been teaching for many years now and I do
think children are more aggressive than they used to
be. I know several reports claim that this is due to
the amount of violence on TV but Im yet to be
convinced of that. I think we all benefit from the fact
that children are exposed to a range of media and
as a result, theyre more worldly, more questioning
and that hugely offsets any negative influences the
media may have. And as for computer games, theyre
creative flights of fantasy, no different from some of
the gruesome fairy stories I read as a child.
M: Ive had some very interesting discussions with
some of the older students about the role of
censorship and whether that goes against the idea
of freedom of speech. Most people initially argue for
freedom of speech but if you discuss it further, you
can argue that censorship doesnt curb freedom of
speech on the grounds that it merely draws a line
between freedom and immorality and inhumanity.
Its unreasonable to expect the media to regulate
themselves; everyone has slightly different
standards, therefore censorship has to be imposed
at government level.

Extract 1
I cant believe it! Ive got a presentation to prepare,
a chapter of a book to read for English and some
maths to do. And the deadlines Thursday. Why
dont they co-ordinate what were given so that we
dont have three things to do in two days and then
perhaps nothing for the next day? Have you got the
same problem?
Extract 2
Hello, I bought this here last week and Im sorry but
theres a problem with the zip. It gets stuck all the
time. When I tried it on, I didnt do it up so I didnt
notice the problem until I got home. Id like either a
replacement or a refund, please. Heres my receipt.
Extract 3
Excuse me, but would you mind not talking so
loudly? Im trying to complete my assignment and
need to concentrate. Anyway, theres a notice on the
wall that clearly says that talking isnt allowed in here.
Why dont you go outside if you want to chat?
Extract 4
Ill have to leave the party before the end because I
have to be home by midnight even when its a special
party. I wish my parents wouldnt treat me like a
child anymore. Most of their rules might be Ok for a
ten-year-old but not a teenager. Its really hard to
reason with them, too. When I try to tell them what
other parents let their kids do, they just say well,
were not like them!

F: Did you know that the store down the road was
robbed last week, Stefan?
M: Yeah, I only started reading about it because the
phrase Bungling Burglars in big letters at the top
made me laugh. Then as I read on further, it turns out
that I actually went to school with the two burglars. I
cant believe a store in this quiet suburb was robbed
... and by people I know, can you, Irene?
F: Apparently, they stole a car, used it as a battering
ram and then stole a load of electronic goods from
the store. So, three crimes were committed in total.
