Unconfident TRANSCRIPT Int:   Today I’m talking to 21-year-old, long-distance runner Ann Brown, who’s just returned from the World Championships. So, Ann, how did you feel about your performance in the championships? Ann:   When you haven’t raced for a while, you’ve no idea whether you’re in sufficiently good shape. I’d
2 only had a few weeks of training behind me so I wasn’t thinking I’d do brilliantly, and it certainly would’ve been amazing to come first. Anyway, I was happy to get the silver medal. It was an exciting race and the crowd was fantastic. Int:   So what‘s your training routine like, Ann? Ann:   I do around 25 to 30 hours a week, mostly long-distance, steady stuff. I go running through the woods. Running on roads is pretty dull so I make sure there’s always some attractive countryside to keep me interested. I get pleasure from seeing the changes in nature, but I do have to remember to keep my eye on the time so I can check my pace. It’s vital to keep pushing myself to my limits. Int:   Do you train every day or do you take a day off? Ann:   The accepted idea is that all professional sportspeople should have at least one rest day a week, so the body can recover. I’m not a great believer in that though. At my age I find I can keep going without one. I do five hours a day and I’d even like to be able to do more than that, but I don’t want to push my body too hard, because that can lead to other problems. Int:   What about your competitors in races – do you get to know them as friends? Ann:   I race against athletes from all sorts of places. I wouldn’t say I’ve got friendships with them, though I’m sure some of them are really good guys, but I tend to keep a professional distance. It’d be too easy to let friendships start interfering with the way I run races. Of course, at my age chatting about life, having fun and a good social life are important to me. I share a house with three mates. They’re the people I really get on well with. Int:   So do you have any favourite free time activities? Ann:   Let me think. I suppose I did when I was a kid but I’m not so sure nowadays. Yeah, I used to take my kite to the top of the hills and fly it for hours. In season, skiing’s something that I get into quite a bit when I’ve got the time. I’ve always enjoyed active things, and never really been much of a reader of books or that kind of thing. Of course, I watch TV and play computer games like most people. Int:   And do you get recognised in the street very often? Ann:   Very rarely, I’m pleased to say, as I think it’d be a bit strange and I’m not sure how comfortable I’d feel about being stopped for autographs and pictures all the time. On the whole I find people wanting your autograph a bit of a pain to be honest. It happens sometimes when I’m at events and at first you say OK, and then after a while you wish it’d stop. I suppose I did that sort of thing when I was younger. It was always such a thrill to meet someone in the public eye. Int:   So are you planning for the next Olympics? Ann:   Well, in my sport most people peak in their late twenties so it’s important to have an eye on the next five years or so, cos that’s when supposedly I’ll be at my best. In the immediate future I want to do well of course but I’m concentrating my attention further ahead. Fortunately, I’ve been injury-free so far – so I don’t
3 have that worry. It’s no use having fantasies about winning gold medals until I’ve reached the top of my own fitness and endurance levels. Then I can start to think seriously about it. II.

TRANSCRIPT Hello everyone. So I'd like to tell you about some of the challenges of living in space. We'll start with the International Space Station, or ISS as it's often called. The ISS has been in space in orbit around the Earth since 1998. Over 200 astronauts have lived on board and one of the biggest challenges for them is living in microgravity. So what happens when you're living in microgravity 24 hours a day for months? For a start it affects your blood circulation. On Earth your blood would naturally be poured towards your feet but in space it goes to your head and we'll talk a bit more about the consequences of that later. But it also goes to your chest and that's why astronauts have to be careful about their blood pressure. Microgravity also affects the mineral stored inside your body. Over time for example the amount of calcium inside your bones begins to
4 decrease so the bones become weaker. Yes it's not much fun living in space. The astronauts have to maintain a very strict exercise program. They do 2.5 hours of exercise six days a week. If they don't what happens is that their muscle begins to waste. Some of it also turns into fat and one final problem that some astronauts experience they find that when they get back to Earth they can't see clearly. Scientists aren't exactly sure why this happens but it seems that the astronauts vision can be permanently affected. Another challenge with living in the ISS is you have to take everything you need with you. So space agencies like NASA are constantly improving the way they recycle things. Water of course is a vital resource and every little bit counts. That means that even the sweat that the astronauts produce is recycled. I know that doesn't sound very nice but NASA says their water is purer than anything you'd drink on Earth. So what's next? Humans are already living in space in the space station but now the goal is to live on the moon or Mars. For this we need to make buildings and the challenges for engineers and architects are even harder. It's incredibly expensive to transport materials into space so they need to be as light as possible. The alternative is to use materials which already exist on the moon or Mars and this does seem to be the sensible way forward. So to make buildings on the moon for example we could use rock and the moon also has plenty of useful minerals. These can be made into metal, into brick and some engineers are also suggesting they could produce paint so it seems everything we need for a basic building might already be on the moon. Actually there's one thing that NASA hasn't managed yet and that's to increase the size of the windows on the ISS. They're very small and if people were going to live in buildings on the moon this is something NASA still has to work on. So even if we managed to create a network of buildings for people to live in on the moon or Mars and grow food and be self-sufficient they would still need mental stimulation and opportunities to relax and stay in touch with what was happening back on Earth. Virtual reality could be the answer. Imagine you're living on the moon but you could use virtual reality to walk around a museum and see all the exhibits. That would be incredible and by using virtual reality you could continue your education by say studying for a qualification that might be useful in your current environment or once you're back on Earth. Now Mars is a different thing. PART TWO: VOCABULARY AND GRAMMAR 1. Give the correct form of the word in brackets to complete each of the following sentences. Write your answers on the answer sheet.
