2 TRANSCRIPT Audioscript Man:   … and finally Mary James has been visiting the new Sea Life Centre at Plymouth. What can you tell us about it, Mary? Woman:   Well, it’s an extremely exciting place. There are so many things to see and everything is enjoyable as well as educational. It costs £3.70 for adults, £2 for children and less for over sixties and school groups. It’s open every day of the year except the 25th and 26th of December. Special attractions for children include a quiz and hourly feeding times for all the different animals and fish, starting at 9.30. You can see everything here from the most enormous of sea creatures to the smallest. Every morning from 10.00 there are slide and video shows for children in the sea life theatre, and someone is always there to answer questions about what you’ve seen. If you are in a group of six or more people, they can give you a special guided tour of the centre. But you need to arrange this at the information desk when you arrive. The latest attraction at the centre is a big glass tunnel you can walk through; all around you, you will see enormous fish swimming – sometimes even over your head. You certainly have the clearest possible view of the world beneath the waves. Children love it and it’s really amazing for adults too! When you get hungry, there is a relaxed family dining area serving snacks, cold drinks and ice creams. Near the main entrance there is an excellent bookshop and there’s also a souvenir shop selling all kinds of things connected with the sea. I warmly recommend this visit; for more information phone 01743 564219. Part 2. You will hear a piece of news about cycling. For questions 11-15, listen and decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F). Write your answers on the Answer Sheet. (1.0 pt) 11. Mr. Jones is travelling on his own. T 12. Mr. Jones only stays in hotels. F 13. Edward Genochio couldn’t complete a 41,000km trip to China and back. F 14. Cycling is becoming more popular in the UK. T 15. Boris Johnson cycles to show people that he cares about the environment T TRANSCRIPT What's the furthest you have ever cycled? Perhaps you cycle to school or to work, or maybe at most a short cycling trip with friends? How would you feel about spending months on the road travelling solo from the UK to China, by bike? For British cyclist Pete Jones, camping rough and cycling long distances through inhospitable terrain are second nature. Mr Jones is currently undertaking a mammoth trip across the Eurasian continent from Britain to China. Pete Jones is no stranger to China. But he says many people there are puzzled by his passion for cycling, asking why he would choose to cycle when he can afford a car. Indeed, while there are an estimated 400
3 million bicycles in China, where it has long been the preferred form of transport, rapid economic growth has fuelled an explosive expansion in car ownership. Edward Genochio, another British cyclist who completed a 41,000km trip to China and back, said one of his aims was to "promote cycling as a safe, sustainable and environmentally benign means of getting about". In the UK, the last few years have seen a rise in the number of people choosing two wheels over four, with some estimates saying the number of people cycling to work has almost doubled in the last five years. Politicians also see cycling as a way to boost their eco-credentials, with people such as London mayor Boris Johnson often riding to work under his own steam. But we may have to wait some time before we see him emulating Pete Jones in attempting to cycle all the way to China! Part 3. You will hear a conversation which takes place in a busy restaurant between a couple, Ivan and Hannah Smythe, and a young waiter, Joel. For questions 16-20, choose the best answer A, B or C. Write your answers on the Answer Sheet. (1.0 pt) 16. How would the manager probably react to an order of two starters? A. He would not be agreeable. B. He would be happy to oblige. C. It wouldn’t matter to him. 17. What did Joel use to be? A. A waiter B. A customer C. A vegetarian 18. Why does Ivan complain about the numbers? A. They are confusing. B. He doesn’t like the idea of using numbers on a menu. C. He can’t see them. 19. What does Ivan want with Banana Spilt? A. lemon sauce B. additional cream C. nuts 20. Why can’t meals be changed? A. They are pre-prepared. B. The meals are assembled off-site. C. The waiter is busy. TRANSCRIPT Ivan: I say, waiter. We’re ready to order. Hannah: Not so loud, darling – people are looking. Ivan: Ah, there you are. What kept you? er… Jo-elle. Joel: Just a little mix-up with one of the other orders, sir. Ivan: I’m not surprised. I don’t know who wrote this load of nonsense but it’s all Greek to me…
4 Hannah: Darling, it’s perfectly plain and obvious. I’ve just explained it. You choose a starter from list A, a main course from list B and dessert from list C and the prices are all colour-coded. Ivan: Well, what if I wanted two starters. Joel: I’d have to ask the manager about that, sir and I don’t think he’d be too happy. Ivan: No, no, there’s no need for that Jo-elle, we’ll just order one of everything as my wife said. Joel: Well, do you know what you’d like, sir? Ivan: Well, my wife will have the garlic mushrooms and a T-bone steak well-done on both sides and… Joel: Sorry, sir. You have to give me the numbers. You see the garlic mushrooms are A36 up here. Ivan: Oh, I see. Well, you could try writing the numbers a bit more clearly. Er, can you deal with this, dear? I’ve left my reading glasses in the car. Hannah: Uh, uh. Now, where were we?.. Oh yes. We’ll have one A36, one B7 and one C15 and my husband will have A12, B3… oh hang on, did you want to ask about the quiche, dear? Ivan: Ah, oh yes. Does the quiche contain animal fat, Joelle? Joel: I’ve never really thought about that – I used to be a vegetarian but I eat almost everything now. Hannah: I’m sure the quiche is fine, dear. We’ll have one B3, Joelle. Joel: It’s Joel actually, you don’t pronounce the ‘E’. Ivan: I could go for something else. Can you see anything, dear? Hannah: Oh, sorry. Er, yes. There’s a nut roast – number B33 and it’s with lemon sauce – sounds nice. Ivan: Lemon sauce? That’s a bit odd. Is it any good er… ‘Joel’? Joel: I don’t know, sir. I don’t eat nuts myself – they don’t agree with my digestion. Ivan: I wasn’t asking about you Joel, I just wanted to know if it’s popular. Joel: Ah, it’s one of our most popular dishes, sir. Ivan: Okay then, nut roast and lemon B33 and one banana split. Hannah: That’s C11. Ivan: Thank you, dear – and don’t forget the extra cream.  Joel: I’m sorry, sir, but all our meals are assembled in advance and nothing extra can be added – or removed. Ivan: What kind of restaurant is this? Hannah: Ivan, calm down. He’s doing his best. Joel: Will that be all then? Ivan: Suppose it’ll have to be. Joel: Well, if you’ll wait just one and a half minutes, I’ll bring you your food. Ivan: My word, that’s very efficient. Even the officer’s canteen in Stanbroke isn’t that fast. Just shows what a bit of organisation and… SECTION II: LEXICO-GRAMMAR (6.0 pts)
