TRANSCRIPT Man: Rachel, tell us how your shows for children started. You studied art at college, didn’t you? Woman: That’s right. But I gave up my career as an artist when my twin daughters were born. Painting took up too much time when I was looking after them. I thought about teaching art classes part-time, but instead I started making dolls for my daughters. I love acting, so I often invented little plays for the dolls, doing the voices myself. Man: And when did you start doing shows for other people? Woman: When our daughters were five, my husband suggested using the dolls to entertain the children at their birthday party. I wrote a little show and he built a dolls’ theatre. My daughters and their friends loved it. As a result, other parents asked me to come and do the show at their children’s parties. That’s how it all
2 began. Man: It must be a lot of work for you? Woman: Yes. I love making the dolls, but I decided that I needed someone to help me with the shows. Luckily my neighbour, Lena, was keen to perform with me. Her husband records the music to go with the shows. It would be impossible to do everything on my own. Man: Have you ever had any problems? Woman: Only once. I did a show for a group of three-year-olds, and I’d written a story about a lion. Unfortunately, the children were really afraid of the lion and started crying. I was worried the parents might complain, but luckily they were all able to laugh about it afterwards. Man: And what did you learn from that? Woman: The experience taught me that I had to find out beforehand just what children enjoy. Like me, Lena has two daughters, so whenever we’ve invented a new story, we show it to our four girls first. They always tell us exactly what they think of it. And sometimes I take new dolls to the local primary school to check that children like them. Man: And the shows continue to be successful? Woman: They do. I have a range of different shows for five to nine-year-olds. In fact, the shows have become so successful I could do one every day, but I don’t want to do that. The reason the shows have become popular, I think, is because I love every minute of every show, and so other people love them too. I certainly didn’t realise when I organised that birthday party for my daughters all those years ago that it would change my life so much! II. Part 2: (1.0 point) You will hear a radio program about some historic places to visit. For each question, fill in the missing information in the numbered spaces.

3 In the factory, find out how people used to make (5) ______ sweets _____. TRANSCRIPT Man: Are you interested in history? Well, I’d like to tell you about some of the historic places open to visitors in this part of the country. Let’s start with the oldest first. Black Rock Caves have been here for over two million years. And, for half a million years, they were home to people and various animals, particularly tigers. You can explore these ancient homes and imagine what life was like for the people who lived there. The caves are open daily from April to October. A special attraction on evenings in August is a walk by candlelight. Don’t take this tour if you are afraid of the dark! Next I recommend a visit to Salter House. This was built by Sir Joshua Salter and dates back to seventeen sixty-five. The Salter family are still living there today. The house became famous in nineteen eighty-two when the television series Aunt Dorothy was filmed there. The furniture and paintings we well worth seeing, but the attraction nobody wants to miss is the kitchen. This is where Aunt Dorothy cooked her enormous meals and gave advice to anyone who passed through this part of the house. And don’t forget to visit The Old Port. You will need several hours to see everything there, especially if you take a trip along the riverside in an old tram as far as the fishing village. The guides there all wear traditional costume and you too get the chance to try on clothes from a hundred years ago. You can buy gifts in the old village stores and eat delicious snacks in the Tea Shop. If you visit the village factory, you can see how sweets were made a hundred years ago, and taste them, too. So, you see there’s plenty of … SECTION 2: PHONETICS III. Choose the word which has the underlined part pronounced differently from that of the rest by circling your answer (A/ B/ C or D).

Ví dụ: I took my children to the park. (Tôi đã đưa các con của mình đến công viên.) Brought (quá khứ của "bring"): Mang ai đó hoặc cái gì đó từ nơi khác về vị trí của người nói hoặc một địa điểm cụ thể. "Bring" thường có nghĩa là mang về gần người nói hơn. Ví dụ: She brought her friend to the party. (Cô ấy đã dẫn bạn đến bữa tiệc.) Fetch (v): Đi đến một nơi nào đó để lấy hoặc mang thứ gì đó về. Từ này thường nhấn mạnh vào việc đi đến lấy cái gì đó rồi quay trở lại. Ví dụ: He went to fetch some water. (Anh ấy đi lấy một ít nước.) Got (quá khứ của "get"): Có nghĩa là có được/ hiểu, nhưng trong ngữ cảnh này, "got" không phù hợp vì nó không mang ý nghĩa đưa ai đó đi đâu đó cụ thể.
